Journey to the West: From the Start, I Used a Massive Brainwashing Technique to Con the Four Pilgrims into Ruin

Eighty years ago, at Five Elements Mountain, Dongfang Ming told a monkey demon a story about a journey to fetch scriptures.

Seventy years ago, at Fuling Mountain Cloud Stack Cave, he spent three days and three nights chatting with a pig demon.

Sixty years ago, at Flowing Sand River, he spoke at length with a man-eating monster about ideals and the meaning of life.

Thirty years ago, by the river in Chang'an, he found a baby about to drown and tirelessly indoctrinated the child for years.

Years later, he became the Imperial Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty, and teacher to the whole world.

On this day, when he had reached the age of one hundred, the Scripture-Seeking System, dormant for eighty years, awakened.

That same day, a guard named Huang, a white-haired maid, and a strangely mystical page arrived together.

The journey to fetch scriptures now had a hundred-year-old Imperial Preceptor, along with three peculiar young men and women.

A story about the mastermind behind the scenes. No magic can compare to this old man's masterful brainwashing. Watch the Imperial Preceptor of the human race toy with all the gods and Buddhas using his silver tongue.
