Pangu opened up the world, the Three Sovereigns governed, and the Five Emperors set the order.
Thus, the world was divided into four great continents: Eastern Victory Divine Continent, Western Niuhe Continent, Southern Jambudvipa, and Northern JuLu Continent.
Eastern Victory Divine Continent.
Overseas, there is a country called Aolai Country.
The country is near the great sea, and in the sea there is a famous mountain called Flower-Fruit Mountain.
This mountain is the ancestor of the ten continents, the origin of the three islands, established since the separation of clear and turbid, and formed after the discernment of chaos.
What a truly magnificent mountain!
On the mountain, there was also a good… stone…
“What a ghost!!!”
Thinking of the opening description of the journey to the west, Sun Wukong just wanted to curse.
Upon awakening, he caught the express train of transmigration and even transmigrated into Sun Wukong.
Transmigrating into Sun Wukong was one thing, but still being an unformed stone, wouldn’t that make one anxious to death…
Transmigrating into Sun Wukong was not good.
If Sun Wukong had to choose, he would rather casually transmigrate into a small demon, or a small heavenly soldier, or at worst, even Chang’e’s rabbit would be fine.
After all, Sun Wukong’s entire life, from the moment he was born, was calculated by others—no… everything was arranged for him even before he was born.
Before he was even born, he was being watched by a large group of people.
After his birth, he apprenticed under Patriarch Bodhi, and Patriarch Bodhi was also an embodiment of one of the shameless Western combinations.
Taking treasures from the Dragon Palace, how long had Sun Wukong been cultivating then?
Even if the Dragon Clan was in decline, as one of the three ancient clans of the Primordial Era, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse.
What followed was even more ridiculous: knowing that the monkey liked to eat peaches, they still let the monkey guard the Pantao Garden.
Wasn’t that clearly offering it on a silver platter?
When he caused a ruckus at the Peach Banquet, did they really think the immortals who had lived for so long were all fools, to be played around by a monkey?
The scheme of stealing immortal elixirs was even more obvious.
What level was Taishang Laojun?
Could a monkey enter Doushuai Palace and steal immortal elixirs?
Just look at how two random attendants and a mount under Laojun could make the later monkey wet himself.
One must know that the later monkey, after eating immortal elixirs, digesting peaches, and being refined in Laojun’s furnace, had become even more powerful.
As for the Havoc in Heaven, it was just a group of actors putting on a show.
What level was the Jade Emperor?
He had been with Hongjun Patriarch tens of thousands of years ago.
To be Hongjun Patriarch’s attendant, his talent must have been incredibly formidable.
Even if the Jade Emperor’s talent was average, in the journey to the west, when Sun Wukong caused the Havoc in Heaven, Tathagata revealed the Jade Emperor’s origin, simply meaning… the Jade Emperor had undergone 26.8 billion years of cultivation.
200 million years of cultivation, and he could be beaten under the table by a monkey?
It could be said that every step Sun Wukong took was along a path already arranged by numerous gods.
The key was that Sun Wukong, having formed from a stone, lacked social experience and had a simple nature, so he couldn’t see that the whole world was acting against him…
Immediately after, he was played by others, yet he thought he was invincible.
As the saying goes—monkey business, perhaps it started from here.
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong was also extremely annoyed.
The seemingly carefree Great Sage the Equal of Heaven was actually being constantly played and entertained by others.
It really was better to be a small demon, carefree and at ease.
Not to mention, he was still a stone right now, which was worrying…
Ding!
“Host detected to have research into schemes.
System loading… binding…”
“Invincible Supreme Anti-Scheme System successfully bound!”
Sun Wukong was stunned.
“What the heck?”
“A golden finger system?”
“And it’s specifically for anti-schemes?”
System, golden finger—how could Sun Wukong not know?
These were the standard equipment of the Transmigration Alliance, a must-have for every transmigrator big shot.
Suppressing his excitement, Sun Wukong opened his mouth and asked, “System, can you introduce yourself?”
Ding!
“The system will issue guiding anti-scheme missions in the early stage.
As long as the host completes the missions, the host will receive generous rewards.”
“As the host’s strength gradually increases, the anti-scheme missions will change and gradually transform into hidden missions with even richer rewards.”
“Current mission: Host, please anti-scheme and be born five hundred years later.”
“Mission reward: Supreme Primordial Body.”
Nani?
Sun Wukong thought it was something good, but being born five hundred years later and being a stone, this was simply more uncomfortable than being played like a monkey!
Five hundred years as a stone, wouldn’t that lead to a mental breakdown?
“System, how about we discuss a change?
What if I’m born earlier?”
“Also, what is this Supreme Primordial Body for?”
Ding!
“It is already too late for an anti-scheme early birth.
The host’s original birth date is the first ray of purple qi tomorrow.”
“The Supreme Primordial Body is a unique cultivation body from ancient times.
With the Supreme Primordial Body, the host’s cultivation will not only advance by leaps and bounds, but among peers, he will be an invincible existence.”
“Please choose whether to accept the anti-scheme mission.”
Sun Wukong felt a bit uncomfortable.
This Supreme Primordial Body was so amazing, it would be a pity not to accept the mission.
However, being born five hundred years later, that was even more unbearable than being suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain.
“Accept!”
There was no other way.
For his future, after hesitating for a long time, Sun Wukong still chose to accept.
He had to get this Supreme Primordial Body, even if it meant shedding tears.
This was key to him breaking free from being a pawn.
He had to endure these five hundred years, even if it meant counting stars!
Ding!
“Host has accepted the mission.
Please relax your divine sense and fall into a deep sleep.
The system will transform the host’s physique…”
“What the heck, I can even sleep?
I should have known and not hesitated for a damn second.”
Muttering to himself, Sun Wukong began to relax his divine sense and fell into a deep sleep.
Western Niuhe Continent.
Lingshan Great Hall.
Tathagata sat on the main seat, expounding the scriptures.
Below, the Eight Bodhisattvas, Four Vajras, Five Hundred Arhats, Three Thousand Jiedi, Eleven Great Luminaries, and Eighteen Garan were all listening attentively, some even diligently taking notes.
Especially his second disciple, Golden Cicada, who kept nodding as he listened, seemingly deeply moved by his teacher, Tathagata Buddha’s, lecture.
Tathagata was quite satisfied with Golden Cicada.
As expected of his second disciple, he grasped things quickly.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was not the case at all.
Golden Cicada was not nodding; he was clearly dozing off.
Tathagata became angry.
How could this be?
This clearly meant he didn’t respect his master!
“This lecture concludes.”
As Tathagata finished speaking, the Buddhas replied:
“Thank you, Buddha!”
Tathagata nodded slightly, then looked at Golden Cicada sternly and said, “Golden Cicada, your mortal dust is not yet cleansed.
You find this lecture boring.
I shall punish you to experience ten lifetimes of reincarnation in the mortal realm!”
As he spoke, Tathagata waved his hand directly, a golden light flashed, and Golden Cicada disappeared from the Lingshan Great Hall.
Golden Cicada: Motherfucker, is this sleep forever?
“Excellent!”
When the Bodhisattvas saw Golden Cicada being directly sent down to the mortal realm, not only did no one try to dissuade or feel sad, but their faces even began to show smiles.
“Amitabha!”
Tathagata looked at the Bodhisattvas and Arhats, his face beaming with a very happy and sincere smile.
In his heart, he felt incredibly pleased.
The Lingming Stone Monkey was about to be born tomorrow.
The Heavenly Dao was prospering his Buddhism!
The journey to the west, which had been prepared for a long time, was now setting sail.
It was precisely because of this that Tathagata had not thought twice and casually found an excuse to send Golden Cicada down to the mortal realm.
