Jin Chanzi transmigrates into the primordial world and becomes Tathagata’s second disciple. But after questioning Buddhist teachings, he is sentenced to ten lifetimes of reincarnation.
In his tenth life, he becomes Tang Sanzang, the Pilgrim, and awakens the [Karmic Fishing] System, which lets him fish up karmic treasures from across the heavens!
Indestructible Buddha Bones, Demon-Dispelling Double Pupils, the Demon-Subduing Pestle of Mount Sumeru... Buddhist treasures from across the heavens all find their way into his soul!
But as it turns out, every god and Buddha in the heavens can hear his inner thoughts!
Tathagata: “I play the villain while you play the good guy? That monkey is Buddhism’s whetstone?!”
Guanyin: “Elder Jinchi is digging his own grave? Tang Sanzang says I hand out work uniforms?!”
The Jade Emperor: “The Curtain-Raising General saw something he shouldn’t have? Sha Wujing is my designated silencer?!”
Sun Wukong: “Master says Bajie is Laozi’s spy? And he praised me for fighting well?!”
Tang Sanzang remains oblivious, happily fishing away: “All appearances are illusory. I’ll just coast through this scripture-fetching quest, then go back to sleep.”
Tathagata: “Coast through it? Let’s see you try coasting through this, disciple!”
Guanyin: “Can I even keep this work uniform on?”
Sun Wukong: “Master, stop sleeping! Take Old Sun to raise havoc in Heaven again!”
Tang Sanzang: “??? Why are you all looking at me? I’m just an ordinary pilgrim!”
All the gods and Buddhas in the heavens: “Ordinary? You sent a sage running with one punch, and you call that ordinary?!”
