Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 535 - 512 (1.0) Journey to the West_2

Chapter One: The Golden Hoop Staff of the Six-Eared Macaque

If the Six-Eared Macaque was truly dispatched by the Three Purities specifically to hinder the pilgrimage for scriptures, then the result was actually a failure.

Not only was the identity of the Six-Eared Macaque seen through by Tathagata, there’s a good chance that Tathagata had guessed the mastermind behind him. Otherwise, why would Tathagata, contrary to his usual demeanor, send out the four great protectorate Vajras of Buddhism to assist in the battle at Flame Mountain, resolving to banish both the Bull Demon King and the Rakshasa woman to the Western Paradise? Within this, there was probably a hint of intimidation and retaliation against the Three Purities. This struggle between Daoism and Buddhism clearly ended in a disastrous defeat for Daoism.

Thinking up to here, Wukong sighed in his heart, reflecting that the conflicts among the immortals are in truth not different from those in the mortal world, where those of high status strategize from behind the scenes while those of low status must face the combat firsthand.

Chapter Two: The Rain Master Absent from the World of Journey to the West

"Chi Songzi, an ancient divine being, was said to be the Rain Master in the Era of Shennong. After the Yellow Emperor and Yan Di’s confrontation, he chose concealment over public life..."

No wonder in "Journey to the West," there were characters like Wind Granny and the Thunder God and Mother, but no Rain Master. When it was time to bring forth rain, they could only rely on the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas to step in. It turns out that in that realm, there was no longer a Rain Master. Chi Songzi had such a good position as the Rain Master, yet he ran off to the belly of Kunpeng inside the realm of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate—what was the reason for that?

Chapter Three: It was the Jade Emperor Who Told Me to Smash Them

The Jade Emperor called over two Juanlian Generals from behind the beaded curtain and cautioned them, "You two, take the Seven Treasures of the Buddhist Sect into the back hall and place them securely."

The two Heavenly Generals took the gold and silver plates from the hands of the fairy. One of them, sharp-eyed, noticed the Jade Emperor’s left hand under the table and hastily chopped down at it, then glanced at the Jade Emperor’s face to see his eyebrows knitted tightly, staring intently at the golden plate in his hand. This Heavenly General had always been keenly aware of the Jade Emperor’s intentions and, without a moment’s hesitation, pretended to slip, resulting in the sound of clinking and clanging as the amber bowl, the lapis lazuli goblet, and the giant clam cup all shattered on the floor.

Chapter Four: With the Peaches in Hand, the World is Mine

The peaches had the effect of prolonging life and were plentiful in quantity. By obtaining the Peach Garden, if used properly, one could win over all the immortals. It’s said that Emperor Li Shimin, after a round of imperial examinations, watched the newly successful candidates file into the Imperial Court and delightedly said to those around him, "All the heroes of the world are within my grasp." Did the Queen Mother of the West also have the same sentiment after acquiring the peach trees?

Chapter Five: The Ruyi Divine Mechanism Staff

Wukong could never have dreamed that four Ruyi Golden Hoop Staffs, combined with the blood of a Creation-born monkey, could actually refine the second-ranked weapon in the "Armament Classics," the "Ruyi Divine Mechanism Staff." "Ruyi" naturally refers to transformation at will; the previous Ruyi Golden Hoop Staff could also transform, but it only pertained to size. However, this Ruyi Divine Mechanism Staff could bend at will, and if Wukong desired, he could even use it as a flexible whip.

Just this use alone would probably not rank it second in the "Armament Classics." The marvelous feature of this Ruyi Divine Mechanism Staff likely lies not in "Ruyi" but in the words "Divine Mechanism." But now that the staff is newly forged, who was the one who wrote about it so early in the "Armament Classics"? Chapter Six: Feng Meng in a Past Life, Tianpeng in This Life

Wukong was almost certain that this Feng Meng was none other than the future Zhu Bajie, who was undoubtedly the current Tianpeng Marshal in Heaven!

Feng Meng, a disciple of Hou Yi from ancient times, was once hailed as the top archer in the world after Hou Yi’s disappearance, proving his inherently sharp and extraordinary talent. Such a clever person, when reincarnated, actually became entangled with a pig—it turns out that this was the reason for that. How much influence did the pig’s Life Soul attached to Feng Meng’s Soul Summoning Banner have? Regarding the secrets of the soul and essence, it seems that one can only delve into the truth by entering the Netherworld.

Chapter Seven: Hou Yi and Chang’er

With Chang’er in his arms, Hou Yi walked into the Hall of Universal Brightness with Wukong following behind them with their heads held high.

Upon seeing Hou Yi, Tianpeng reacted as if he had seen a dreadful demon, trembling with fear and collapsing to the ground.

When the Jade Emperor saw that Hou Yi was holding Chang’er, a flame of nameless fury ignited within him and he demanded, "Who are both of you, daring to impersonate figures from ancient times, and yet you have the audacity to abduct someone from my Heaven! Release her at once!"

Chapter Eight: Li Shimin’s Reverence for Daoism Over Buddhism

Li Shimin was not angered and chuckled, "If I truly end up in Hell, what’s there to fear? Our Eastern Land has its own way, and if I hold a Buddhist water and land ceremony, inviting foreign invaders into our country, wouldn’t that be letting the wolf into the house?"

Wukong, upon hearing this, felt greatly pleased. Li Shimin was indeed an extraordinary figure. Although he was unaware of Tathagata’s dispatching of individuals to transmit scriptures, he managed to succinctly pinpoint the essence of the matter, truly worthy of being called a great emperor of all time. However, given Li Shimin’s such aversion to Buddhism, how could he possibly hold a water and land ceremony upon his rebirth? Wouldn’t the pilgrimage for the scriptures become an illusion?

Chapter Nine: Daoist Immortals Protect Tang Monk

The Jade Emperor said, "The journey from Chang’an to the Western Paradise Sacred Mountain is no less than a hundred thousand miles, and the road ahead is long with unpredictable dangers. I will have the Daoist immortals protect the monk. They may shield him for a moment, but not for a lifetime. Once they leave the Southern Continent, whatever demons may cause trouble, that will no longer concern my Daoist sect."

After the Jade Emperor gave his explanation, some ministers felt at ease, while others felt that the Jade Emperor’s action was too appeasing and unbecoming of the ruler of ten thousand heavens, yet they remained silent.

Chapter Ten: Zhu Bajie’s Original Spouse

As Wukong listened, it became clear that this woman was upset with Bajie for constantly going to Gao Village in search of Miss Gao Cuilian, spilling her jealousy here. Could this woman be the one from Cloud Ladder Cave who enticed Bajie to be her husband, Sister Egg the Second? But that can’t be right, "Journey to the West" clearly stated that Sister Egg the Second died a year after her marriage, so there must be some hidden story behind this.

Volume One: The Unspeakable Chapter One: Bond Through Two Lives

In the land of Dongsheng Shenzhou, the nation of Aolai, atop Flower Fruit Mountain.

Petals of peach blossoms spun from the branches and floated down, twirling a few times in the air before landing in the hands of a monkey.
