[Journey to the West+Mortal Flow+Gou Dao+Behind the Scenes]
Born in Huaguo Mountain, I am a mortal stone monkey with no bloodline or background.
Watching Sun Wukong causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he was pinned under the Five Elements Mountain; watching him put on the golden hoop and embark on the long-planned journey to seek enlightenment.
At that moment I understood: In this ancient world, weakness is the original sin. If I am just a bystander, one day even the vegetation in Huaguo Mountain will be trampled to pieces.
Fortunately, there is a spiritual bead space deep in my soul. The flow of time here is very different, which is my greatest support. A day in the outside world and ten months in a pearl, I would huddle in this small space, inhaling spiritual energy, warming up my injuries, and polishing my meager magical powers.
When I became a disciple of Fang Cunshan, I restrained all my sharpness and became the most inconspicuous disciple. During the day, he pretended to be stupid among the crowd, and at night, he hid in the Lingzhu space and practiced hard. When others practice once, I practice a hundred times inside the beads; when others show off their magical powers, I hide my clumsiness and act like a pig, covering up my trump cards.
I don't seek to become famous, I just seek to survive, become stronger, and get stronger in this fight between gods and goddesses.
When that day comes, when I stand on the top of the Three Realms, I will tear up the so-called "Destiny" with my own hands, so that the Monkey King will always be the carefree Monkey King!
(This book follows the orthodox mortal flow route: no system, no Holy Mother, no invincibility. The protagonist relies on the Lingzhu space to rise from the bottom, and relies on scheming, forbearance and hard work to reach the top step by step.)
