Journey to the West: You Were Supposed to Be a Study Companion, Yet You Secretly Mastered the Path to Sainthood?

[The rating just came out; it'll go up] I, Jiang Chen, transmigrated into Journey to the West and became an utterly ordinary human disciple on Mount Lingtai Fangcun.

My only golden finger is a glimmer of primordial spiritual light in my mind that can analyze and unravel all techniques!

This thing has no System and never speaks, but whenever Patriarch Bodhi lectures, my mind is filled with...

[Ding! You've listened in on the incantation of the Flow sect. Combining it with the principles of Heaven and Earth, automatically analyzing and deducing...]

[Congratulations! You've mastered the Heavenly Astral Divine Ability, Insight Through Walls!]

[Ding! You've listened in on the art of divination from the Arts sect. Combining it with the laws of cause and effect, automatically analyzing and deducing...]

[Congratulations! You've mastered the Heavenly Astral Divine Ability, Foreknowledge of the Future!]

While my junior, Sun Wukong, is still congratulating himself on mastering the Seventy-Two Transformations, I've already learned all thirty-six Heavenly Astral abilities!

Wukong: (smugly) Senior Brother, look! Old Sun can turn into a pine tree now!

Me: (looking troubled) Sigh, Junior Brother, Master's lessons are too profound. I haven't learned a thing.

(Inside: I just used "Reversing Yin and Yang" to turn Patriarch's teacup into nectar. He probably didn't notice, right?)

My goal is to secretly become a saint before the great calamity of Journey to the West begins!
