About The Investiture Of The Gods

The Investiture Of The Gods centers on Jiang Zi Ya, a sharp minded military strategist who is mentored by Yuan Shi Tian Zun, a primeval Taoist lord who stands at the edge of Heaven. Zi Ya’s disciplined mind and uncanny insight set him apart, but envy festers in Shen Gong Bao, his apprentice. When Gong Bao betrays him, he steals Zi Ya’s Seven Color Stone, a legendary gem whose magic can mend the tear between Heaven and Earth. With that celestial breach at stake, Zi Ya must navigate rival factions, shifting loyalties, and the heavy burden of power as events unfold across both mortal and divine realms.

Released in 2014, the series features Sammul Chan as Jiang Zi Ya with Zhang Di as Ji Fa and Li Yixiao as Su Daji among its leads. It draws on Fengshen Yanyi, the classic Investiture of the Gods tale, for its mythic backbone and blends drama with fantasy inspired visuals and action.

Critics note the show ambitiously fuses epic myth with tactical storytelling and personal conflict. The themes center on mentorship, ambition, loyalty, and the consequences of jealousy, all anchored by solid performances from the core cast as they bring to life a world where celestial schemes collide with human aims. The production leans on striking design and effects to render a mythic landscape that feels both ancient and immediate, giving the story a tangible sense of scale and stakes.
