[Journey to the West] + [Cultivation Through Academic Papers] + [Our Man Tang] + [Three Realms Gossip] + [Social Savvy]
Reborn as Tang Monk, I acquired a System that lets me cultivate through academic papers. As long as a paper passes peer review, I get a reward.
“From Spirit Mountain to the Mortal World: The Scorpion Demon’s True Nature as a ‘Buddha Rebel’” passed review and earned me [Horse-Felling Poison Stinger].
“The Untold Story of Taishang Laojun and Princess Iron Fan: On the Speed at Which Rumors Spread Across the Three Realms” passed review and earned me [Banana Leaf Fan].
“On the Outstanding Contribution of the Heavenly Court’s Civil Service to Stability in the Three Realms” passed review, earning me +10,000 favor with the Heavenly Court and ten times the usual monthly special allowance!
This humble monk believes that, under the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, leader of the pilgrimage project team, and with the care of our celestial leaders, our pilgrimage team will create difficulties even when there are none, and resolutely fulfill our target of eighty-one trials!
Allow me to make my position clear. From now on, whatever the Heavenly Court and Spirit Mountain dare to handle, our organization will handle too. Whatever they don’t dare handle, our organization will handle anyway! We’ll deal with it first and report later! Kill first, bury later! Any objections?
In front of the Buddha, you can call me a Tang monk from the Great Tang, and I won’t take offense! But in private, what should you call me?
I am the humble monk Tang Sanzang, who buries the heavens! Buries the earth! Buries all living things!
