Journey to the West: I, Tang Monk, Nuke Spirit Mountain

Tang Sanzang transmigrated to the world of Journey to the West, only to run into the Jade Emperor traveling incognito.

Tang Sanzang: "You look so hideous, and you claim to be the Jade Emperor?"

Jade Emperor: "I really am the Jade Emperor!"

Tang Sanzang: "Then let me ask you this: Buddhism teaches that a wicked person can lay down his butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot. Why must I endure the Eighty-One Tribulations to attain enlightenment?"

Jade Emperor: "..."

Tang Sanzang: "Jade Emperor, you punished the people of Fengxian County for no reason, bringing drought upon them. You said it would rain only after a chicken finished pecking through a mountain of rice, a dog licked clean a mountain of flour, and a candle burned through a chain. Doesn't that mean the Western Buddhists are scheming against you and making you take the blame for their evil deeds?"

Tang Sanzang: "Let me ask you another question. The Western Buddhist sect joined forces with you to plot the Journey to the West and fetch the scriptures. Do you really think your Daoist sect will have any place in the Three Realms once the Buddhist sect takes control of them?"

Tang Sanzang: "Stop pretending. If you were the Jade Emperor, you'd have already gathered the gods and immortals, infused this nuclear bomb of mine with the power of the Law, and made it explode..."
