After seeking scriptures from the West, Pangu's three wishes maintained the three realms. Later, the "wish to protect the way" was lost and the "wish to return to silence" was abused by the Tathagata. As a result, the power of the three realms was exhausted, the demon world awakened, and the "Era of Lin Jie" began. Buddhism, heaven, and the human world are trapped in a "ring of rifts," and only "human righteousness" can break the situation. The woodcutter Zhongshi obtained the rare stone of Wukong's remnant soul, inherited Taoism and Dharma, established the "Shou Zhen Alliance", and found Xuanzang's "Return to Truth". Everyone realized that "the desire to protect the Tao is in the heart" and gathered together to attack the "Tongtian Blood Tower" in Chang'an. At the end of the battle, Zhong Shi ignited the wishes of all the people with the "True Wish of the Benevolent One", transformed into the light of the "Wish of the Protector", destroyed the Blood Tower, scattered the Tathagata, and reshaped the Three Realms. Wukong returned to seclusion, Zhongshi returned to his hometown, and Bodhi said, "Heaven's heart is my heart."
