Synopsis

This novel has been adapted into a motion comic. If you're interested, look it up by title.

[Journey to the West] [Transmigration] [Changing Brother Monkey's Fate] [Cunning] [Powerful Connections]

After transmigrating into Journey to the West, Li Chen discovers that his soul is trapped inside Sun Wukong, who has yet to be born.

To make matters worse, he doesn't even have a System.

To survive, he can only play the role of an old mentor and guide Brother Monkey while he's still in the womb.

“Brother Monkey, here's the Dao De Jing. I'll pass it on to you. Figure it out for yourself!”

“Keep the commotion down when you're born. Don't let those old geezers in the heavens see you!”

“Don't touch the peaches or spring water in the mortal realm. They'll defile your innate spirit womb. You can only absorb the essence of the sun and moon!”

And so, a stone monkey with an exceptionally powerful origin and a cautious nature was born.

When the great saga of Journey to the West began, the gods and Buddhas across the heavens prepared to manipulate the stone monkey according to the script, only to find that things had taken an unexpected turn.

This monkey simply refused to play by the rules!

Sun Wukong sneered and held out his hand. “Guanyin Bodhisattva, your leading man in Journey to the West has a price. Unless you give me three magical treasures and five pots of Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, Old Sun isn't fetching those scriptures!”

Tathagata Buddha watched as the treasury of Spirit Mountain was stripped bare and lost it. “Who taught that brat to extort people?!”

Deep within Brother Monkey's soul, Li Chen chuckled coldly. “You want to use my brother as a pawn in Journey to the West? Fine, but all you gods and Buddhas will pay his appearance fee, lost wages, and bodyguard fees in magical treasures!!”

So far, it's pretty good. I rarely read Journey to the West fanfiction, but this one has a good premise. The male lead, Monkey King, is the main character, stealing from the Three Realms. I hope it continues to be popular. It would be best if there were no female leads, but I think it would be interesting to pair Yang Chan with Monkey King to give Chen Xiang a new father.

Personally, I think the author writes very well, but from the moment I saw the part where he wanted to use Yang Chan, I felt that Monkey King's character collapsed. Considering that most of the previous parts were about scheming, it's not that scheming is inherently bad, but this part just started to feel uncomfortable.

The plot is fast-paced and engaging, the protagonist is intelligent, and it's not a mindless wish-fulfillment story. It's truly remarkable to bring such freshness to the Journey to the West theme, especially the scenes where the protagonist causes trouble inside the Monkey King's body—both hilarious and exciting. I hope you can maintain this quality. Keep up the good work, author! I've caught up!

It's pretty good! It shows a clear progression and growth path, much better than those mindless power-ups. Why is the rating so low? How many updates does the author post a day? It's simply not enough! Please post more!

Not bad. Just a small suggestion: the official history of Journey to the West could be simplified; otherwise, it makes you want to fast-forward, affecting the viewing experience. The author's original content is the real gem.

It's definitely a good watch. Skill is everything; playing cautiously and developing your character in the early game is the key. It shows you understand your own role and know how to leverage your strengths to acquire the best resources. At the same time, it shows you know when to quit while you're ahead…

My personal understanding is that, if we adopt the primordial worldview, it seems that during the battle of Pangu's creation of the world, the fall of three thousand chaotic demons resulted in a massive surge of resentment, hatred, obsession, and the will to survive. This surge of resentment flowed into the newly formed primordial world, merging with the existing Heavenly Dao rules.
