We study the multimagnon blockade and magnon-induced tunneling in the hybrid ferromagnet-superconductor system, where a magnon mode representing the collective motion of spins in the yttrium iron garnet (YIG) sphere is coupled with a three-level $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}$-type fluxonium qubit via the virtual-photon excitation from the microwave cavity. By appropriately choosing the parameters, the single magnon blockade, multimagnon blockade including two- and three-magnon blockades, and magnon-induced tunneling could be achieved. Fortunately, the switch from magnon blockade to magnon-induced tunneling could be obtained via controlling the overall phase of the loop transition determined by the driving fields. Furthermore, the single-magnon blockade could be transformed into a multimagnon blockade via the phase modulation. The scheme we present may provide an alternative method to manipulate the few-magnon states and have potential applications in quantum communication and quantum information processing.
