Protagonist transmigrates + no-brainer wish fulfillment + hilarious power-ups + everyone loses it: a wild mix of memes!
Wang Dachui, twenty-eight, a failed web novelist with three digits in his savings and overdue payments on his Huabei account.
His editor's demands for updates are worse than Sun Wukong's headband, and his readers' angry comments are more annoying than Tang Sanzang's chanting.
He gulps down a bottle of Erguotou and opens his eyes again: he's become Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
Before he can even celebrate, a mechanical voice explodes in his mind:
“[Three Realms Livestream System] successfully bound. Main quest: Gain 100,000 followers within 24 hours. Failure: Return to your original world and keep writing flop novels. Your mortgage, car loan, and Huabei payments will continue accruing interest as usual.”
Wang Dachui's eyes widen in shock. “I'll stream! I'll damn well stream, okay?!”
And just like that, the Three Realms go completely off the rails...
Stealing peaches? No, that's “a food review.”
Wreaking havoc in Heaven? No, that's “a public fitness initiative for all.”
Dueling the Tathagata? No, that's “a livestream PK. Family, send rockets to watch your Old Sun defy fate!”
Likes from fans equal magic power, while tips from the top fan earn a new skin for the Golden Cudgel.
Nezha's Wind-Fire Wheels become a skateboard, the Howling Celestial Dog is forced to wear a pink skirt and livestream sales, the Jade Emperor is made to dance “Subject Three” and throws out his back, and the Queen Mother gets reported for “personal attacks” after clapping back at trolls...
How is this Journey to the West? It's clearly “The Immortals' Makeover Show”!
But as the laughter goes on, something starts to feel wrong in the Three Realms...
The Venerable of Annihilation sneers, “Order has no need for laughter.”
The Buddha of No Heavens descends. “All beings suffer. Better to return to the void.”
The Primeval Lord of Heaven thunders, “This livestream chaos ends now. The Heavenly Dao shall ban it!”
This is a novel that takes "deconstruction of myth" to the extreme. Wang Dachui's soul penetrated Sun Wukong, bound to the live broadcast system, and used spiritual stone mobile phones and modern memes to turn the three worlds upside down - stealing flat peaches is called "Food Review", fighting heavenly soldiers is called "National Fitness", and even the Jade Emperor became the second eldest brother on the list. The whole book goes from the three realms to the ancient world and then to the multiverse. Amaterasu was criticized and turned off the live broadcast, the torch of the Statue of Liberty turned into a match, and gods around the world queued up to be scolded. The whole process was online.
But what really makes this book stand out is not Wu Nao Shuang, but "Wuxingshan Night Talk". When Wukong sat at the foot of the mountain that had suppressed him for five hundred years, and said to millions of strangers, "If you are unhappy, please post it on the public screen." This book suddenly changed from a collection of funny jokes to a late-night companion. Guanyin learned to call "family", like "I understand". Everyone who has been beaten by life can find a light in this book.
Recommended to all readers who need "special treatment for unhappiness".
