Journey to the West: Farming with the Jade Emperor to Rebuild Humanity!

A drought gripped Fengxian County, and neither the gods nor the Buddhas sent rain. Zhang Tianyou mistook the Jade Emperor for his own father and sneered at the heavens. “If the gods won’t give us water, we’ll dig for it ourselves! The gods and Buddhas treat mortals like ants, so I’ll put humanity above the divine!” Zhang Tianyou brought out high-yield seeds and taught the people to reclaim the wasteland. Even the Dragon King of the Well willingly became a laborer. The Jade Emperor came down to inspect the mortal realm and was forced to help with the farming. He was about to lose his temper when he was stunned to discover that one bite of the cabbage his son had grown had broken through a cultivation bottleneck that had held him back for millions of years! The people built a shrine to Zhang Tianyou, and the pure fortune of humanity made even the Heavenly Dao tremble with fear. The Jade Emperor understood: the incense offered to the gods and Buddhas was nothing. The will of the people was the true Great Dao! Three years later, Buddhist arhats came to punish the county, but the golden light of humanity shattered their indestructible bodies. The Jade Emperor lifted his bamboo hat and revealed his true form. “My son says that humanity can triumph over heaven. Today, I shall follow the will of humanity and destroy you all!”
