High-octane action from beginning to end!!! The realms of immortals and Buddhas are rife with political intrigue and hidden murderous intent. Sun Wukong, the stone-born monkey of the Eastern Continent, called himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. He protected Tang Sanzang on his journey west and earned unparalleled merit. Yet his defiant heart would not submit to Buddha, making him a grave threat to the Buddhist order.
The Tathagata set a trap, using the Six-Eared Macaque to impersonate him and stage a battle between the real and fake Monkey Kings, deceiving the Three Realms. When Wukong reached Mount Ling, a Nirvana Buddhist Formation had been secretly laid. A golden alms bowl was used to destroy the true sage. Wukong fought with all his Daoist power and barely escaped with a wisp of his soul, fleeing beyond the Thirty-Third Heaven to Mount Yujing, where the Heavenly Venerable of the Primordial Beginning rescued him.
The Heavenly Venerable took a primordial chaos stone, expended his source of sainthood to forge Wukong an indestructible body, and passed on the Way of Chaos. After a century of arduous cultivation, Wukong's powers surpassed even his former strength. He was no longer bound by karma or controlled by Buddhist teachings.
When he emerged once more, his fury shook the heavens, and he headed straight for Mount Ling in the Western Heaven.
Once wronged and killed, the Stone Sage has returned.
He will not rest until he avenges his blood debt and clears his name!
