Journey to the West, Beginning as a Tiger Demon

After Wang Shanjun transmigrated into the body of a tiger, he discovered that he had arrived in the world of Journey to the West, where he would one day become the tiger-skin skirt worn by Sun Wukong.

He wants to survive his destined death tribulation. He wants the Daoist school to flourish. He does not want Buddhism's eastward transmission.

At this time, the monkey is still beneath Five Elements Mountain, Tang Sanzang still knows nothing of his origins, Zhu Bajie has yet to seek out Gao Cuilan, and Guanyin has not yet gone to the Great Tang to deliver the kasaya.

Meanwhile, Wang Shanjun, who is beneath Five Elements Mountain, realizes that his opportunity has arrived.
