✦ About
Erlang Shen is the warrior deity known for his third truth-seeing eye and his mastery of 73 transformations—one more than Sun Wukong. He is the nephew of the Jade Emperor and commands the celestial armies, accompanied by his loyal hound Xiaotian.
His third eye can see through all illusions and deceptions, making him the perfect divine enforcer. He was the only deity who could match Sun Wukong in single combat during the Monkey King's rebellion against heaven.
Erlang Shen represents martial excellence, unwavering duty, and the piercing vision that sees through falsehood to truth.
✦ Famous Story
When Sun Wukong rebelled against heaven, Erlang Shen was sent to capture him. The two engaged in an epic battle of transformations, each matching the other's forms. Though neither could prevail through combat alone, Erlang Shen's persistence helped trap the Monkey King.
