Hanuman with some army, reached South and not being bothered by the huge ocean, grew into a giant and leapt over the Ocean to Ravana's Kingdom, Lanka. The city was guarded by a demon Lankini, she didn't prove much headache to Hanuman. Searching the city, he found Ravana threatening Sita.
At night, Hanuman came to Sita and told her who he was and showed her a ring of Rama. He told her that he could carry her on his shoulders and take her away, but Sita wanted Rama to come and free her.
Hanuman was in tears with the plight of Sita and started destroying the Demons and their gardens. Ravana ordered to set fire to the tail of Hanuman, but as the fire was lighted to the tail, Hanuman leapt in the air and set fire in Lanka and returned to Rama.
Ravana had a wise brother Vibhishana, who asked Ravana to return Sita, but Ravana threw him out of the kingdom. Vibhishana approached Rama for help.
The Sea God made the rocks float on the ocean.
Rama crossed the bridge, built by the strong monkey army.

Then began the great battle between Ravana and Rama.
Rama blew two heads of Ravana, but was surprised when they grew back. Vibhishana revealed to Rama the secret of one vulnerable spot on Ravana's body, but Rama refused to hit below the belt.
