[I Reincarnated as an Immortal Stone and Became Sun Wukong’s Big Brother?]
Shi Hao woke up to find himself trapped inside the embryonic membrane of an immortal stone on Flower-Fruit Mountain, sharing a fate with a furry stone monkey. Even more absurd, the monkey was the future Great Sage Equal to Heaven, while he was merely the “unnecessary extra piece of immortal stone” overlooked by both the Heavenly Dao and the mighty beings.
Just then, the [Great Karma Anti-Buddhism System] activated:
“Buddhist forces are detected spying on this stone’s fate. Mission issued: Create a divergence in karma.”
So he turned the “Six-Syllable Mantra” carved by Guanyin into psychic pollution and remade the Arhats’ sermons into lullabies. The Buddhist relics they sent became cultivation supplies for him and Wukong, and even the illusory treasures of Spirit Mountain had some of their origins quietly “picked up” by him along the way…
Hidden in the heart of the stone, he taught Wukong, still forming within the chaos, about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin, drumming into him that “you have to guard against Buddhism early.”
Hiding within the monkey’s body, he helped the Handsome Monkey King make plans for Flower-Fruit Mountain, keeping the Buddhist infiltrators thoroughly fooled.
Concealed in the heartstone, he watched Wukong wreak havoc in the Dragon Palace and storm the underworld, while casually severing Buddhism’s hold over reincarnation.
Disguised as a Daoist, he accompanied Tang Sanzang on the journey west and turned the entire pilgrimage team into “witnesses against Buddhism.”
Five hundred years of planning, overturned in a single stroke.
When Sun Wukong stood at the foot of Spirit Mountain, Shi Hao finally appeared. “Second Brother, it’s time to settle accounts with the Buddha.”
This time, they would not only tear down Spirit Mountain’s hypocritical signboard, but give the Three Realms the truth:
The Victorious Fighting Buddha was nothing more than a thug kept by Buddhism.
The supposed attainment of the pilgrimage was merely a pawn in Buddhism’s eastward expansion.
And what the brothers had to do was overturn the whole game and restore freedom to Heaven and Earth!
