Journey to the West: From Overworked Little Demon to Heavenly Court Powerhouse

Modern office drone Shi Hao transmigrates into the world of Journey to the West as a lowly stone demon. From the start, he stumbles upon the hellish sight of a one-eyed leopard demon devouring a living person to absorb their “spiritual essence.” On the verge of death, he discovers that the jade pendant he brought with him is actually a “spiritual essence purifier.” It can turn bloody resentment into pure energy, allowing him to cultivate without eating people. From the humiliation of licking blood from a trough to being forced to meet the KPI of “capturing humans alive,” Shi Hao survives in the cracks of the demon lair with the instincts of an office drone and his spirit-cleansing jade pendant. Then the mysterious woodcutter Shi Gandang arrives out of nowhere to “acquire” Black Wind Ridge, and Shi Hao is rapidly promoted to “HR manager.” He uses corporate speak to defuse a layoff crisis while hiding the secret of his embezzled spiritual essence. One day, this little office-drone demon will become a giant of the Celestial Court.
