Sun Wukong had just been imprisoned beneath Five Elements Mountain, and the calamity of Journey to the West was officially beginning to take shape.
Reborn as Su Yuan, he became the lowest-ranking member of the Heavenly River Navy. He had no System and no powerful backer, but he alone knew how the next five hundred years of Journey to the West would unfold. While everyone else cultivated their own fate, Su Yuan seized control of the whole game!
While the gods and Buddhas were still cleaning up the aftermath of Havoc in Heaven, he slipped into the ruins of the Peach Garden, stole the ancestral peach tree’s roots, then intercepted the stray embers left behind by Taishang Laojun and forged an unrivaled body.
From then on, he always stayed one step ahead, snatched up opportunities amid the calamity, claimed the merit of the pilgrimage, subdued ancient divine beasts, established a demon kingdom in the lower realms, and built the Three Realms’ most rebellious faction.
The Jade Emperor wanted to use him as a pawn, Tathagata wanted to use him to resolve the calamity, and Guanyin wanted to trap him in the game. But Su Yuan was determined to carve a path to the heavens by trampling the rules of the immortals and Buddhas.
In this life, he would no longer be an ant at someone else’s beck and call. He would shatter the laws of Heaven, rewrite his fate, and make every exalted god, Buddha, and sage bow their heads!
