Hongmeng Bodhi: My Disciple Wukong, Who Dares to Slay You?

The battle between the true and false Monkey King deceived the Three Realms, but it could never deceive the Dao Ancestor of Primordial Chaos. The world believes that upon completing the pilgrimage to the West, Sun Wukong attained the status of the Victorious Fighting Buddha, shrouded in incense offerings and immortalized in glory. Yet no one knows that beneath the Soul Suppressing Pagoda of Mount Ling, the true Great Sage Equal to Heaven has spent a millennium with his divine soul shattered in agony, barely clinging to existence. In that past confrontation, it was the Six-Eared Macaque that died, while the one who survived was merely a puppet Buddha forged by Mount Ling to harvest the destiny and fortune of the Three Realms. Patriarch Bodhi has hidden beyond the primordial heavens for tens of millions of years—transcending the Heavenly Dao, looking down upon the Three Realms, revered as the progenitor of all dharmas and the origin of immortals and Buddhas. Bound by his vows, he never meddled in worldly conflicts, coldly observing the rise and fall of the realms and the cycles of heaven. Until now. Witnessing his sole personal disciple framed by hypocritical gods and Buddhas, schemed against by the Heavenly Dao, and pushed to the brink of eternal oblivion, the ancient restrictions of Mount Fangcun shatter. The Primordial Sovereign breaks his seal and emerges into the world. "When I expelled you from the mountain, it was for you to undergo tribulations and comprehend the Dao—never for gods and Buddhas to slaughter and manipulate you! If the Heavenly Dao is unjust, I shall tear it apart with my bare hands! If the immortals and Buddhas are hypocrites, I shall trample Mount Ling to dust!" From this day forth, whether the Nine Heavens' barriers, the gates of the South Heaven, the Great Formation of Ten Thousand Buddhas, or the laws of the Heavenly Dao—none remain unbreakable.
