Zhu Boming transmigrates into the world of Journey to the West, awakens the Origin of Heavenly Dao Glitches, and becomes the only outsider in this world capable of altering the Heavenly Mandate List.
He is not bonded to a spirit stone. Instead, he is an outsider who takes root in the fissures between the Three Realms, beyond the cycle of reincarnation.
Having read the entire orthodox history of Journey to the West as well as its hidden records, he sees the most chilling truth: the journey was never about spreading the teachings and saving people. It was a grand ceremony to tame those named on the Heavenly Mandate List, contrived by Mount Ling in collaboration with the Heavenly Dao.
Sun Wukong was born with supreme sacred bones, his battle prowess unrivaled across the primordial world. He could have roamed free for countless ages, dominating the Three Realms. But the Heavenly Mandate List had already sealed his entire life: betraying his master after learning the arts, causing Havoc in Heaven, being imprisoned beneath the Five Elements, having his heart bound by a tightening band, losing his nature on the pilgrimage for scriptures, and becoming a Buddha whose soul was imprisoned.
Everyone believes the Great Sage is the protagonist of Journey to the West, not knowing he is merely the ultimate tool of the Heavenly Mandate List, used to keep the demon clans in check, reap their fortune, and consolidate Buddhism's power.
Returning to Flower-Fruit Mountain's Water Curtain Cave, Zhu Boming meets the stone monkey three hundred years before he attains enlightenment. He forms a bond with him in sincerity, paves the way with his wits, and uses glitches in the Heavenly Dao to rewrite the Mandate List.
He plans carefully before acting, exposing the hypocrisy of the immortals and Buddhas step by step and shattering the shackles of the Heavenly Dao. Concealing his strength and biding his time, he secretly cuts off Mount Ling's informants and overturns the world's ordained fate.
Wukong wields supreme power and crushes every foe. Zhu Boming holds the whole board in his hands and sees through the secrets of fate.
From then on, there is no pilgrimage for scriptures, and the Buddhist kingdom earns no merit.
I will rewrite the fate decreed by the Heavenly Mandate List with my own hands. I will overturn the game controlled by the immortals and Buddhas myself. I will repay the Great Sage a hundredfold for the life he was denied!
When the false Buddhas fall, the Heavenly Dao crumbles, and the old order collapses, Zhu Boming and the undefeated Great Sage ascend to the peak of the Three Realms and establish a new order for the world!
