In this sequel, Hei continues to train his spatial and metal abilities with his master, Wuxian. Although it is still unstable, it is undeniably impressive. On their training and journey honing Hei’s skills, his powers not just evolve but also the way he learns to use his power responsibly, balance power, and compassion for both worlds; humans and spirits. 

Fueling the excitement, Nezha returns for another adventure, driving the thrill with visually stunning combat while supporting Hei. Known for his rebellious, mischievous energy, he injects fiery fight sequences and is a must-see. 

Another fan-favorite is back, Wuxian, with heartwarming moments with Hei that bring charm and fun. However, a new conflict arises…will he be able to clear his name?

With the introduction of a new character, Lù Yě, a former apprentice of Wuxian, teams up with Hei to shed light on the mystery behind the attack on the Guild and clear Wuxian’s name after he is framed for the incident. 

When Wuxian is placed under house arrest during the investigation, Lù Yě, a reliable and calculated Executor of the Spirit Guild, takes care of Hei and becomes a mentor figure to him. During their mission, it is revealed that she lost her family and became a war orphan, which led her to resent humans. Will she begin to heal from her deep-rooted trauma?
