From Myth to Journey to the West: Guiding the Monkey to Great Luo

Xu Zhi'an lives in the Mythic Great Encompassing Heaven, where he made a wager with the Three Pure Ones and the others.

Could postnatal beings attain the Mythic Great Encompassing Dao with their guidance?

Whoever successfully guided a being to enlightenment would be honored as the Lord of the Great Encompassing Heaven.

After agreeing on three rules, a projection of Xu Zhi'an entered the Journey to the West.

At Fangcun Mountain, he met a monkey who had come to seek a master.

"Drawing in qi is when the Three Flowers Gather at the Crown and the Five Qi Return to Their Origin!"

"Refining qi into spirit is when the true spirit never perishes and the true self is one and only!"

"Returning to the Void and uniting with the Dao means transcending time and space, attaining proof once and for all!"

"Once you enter the Immortal Realm, even as a mere Human Immortal, you can easily change the rules of the Great Dao!"

Later, when the monkey ascended to the Celestial Court, the Sages looked at him, newly become an immortal, and shook their heads in exasperation.

"My master said you were supposed to put on a show for me?" the monkey asked timidly.

In an instant, the Heavenly Dao collapsed, and the Sages wailed.
