At two o’clock in the morning, Brother Liu had been playing the game continuously for over ten hours and truly couldn’t hold on any longer. He reluctantly closed the game to sleep, planning to wake up tomorrow and continue.

His dreams were filled with scenes of Sun Wukong slaughtering in all directions with the Golden Cudgel—he even thought, if only he could have watched such a cartoon when he was young, how great would that have been? Our Monkey Brother isn’t the slightest bit inferior to those robot protagonists, and he has super personality!

There were also many children who harbored the same thoughts as Brother Liu.

In the elementary school student group chats, the game Journey to the West was rapidly spreading.

The alternate world had a strict game rating system. Games suitable for children were all Class A games, and parents’ attitudes towards this type of game were also very friendly.

On weekends, many parents would proactively take their children to experience holographic games. Children who didn’t want to go out could also play mobile games at home; of course, the length of time was controlled by the parents.

Kids nowadays all had their own small social circles. If one kid played a certain game and found it fun, the children around them would follow suit and play it. After all, once they went to school, everyone would discuss “what games they played over the weekend,” and if you hadn’t played it, you wouldn’t be able to keep up with the trend.

This weekend, the most discussed topic among the children demographic was Journey to the West.

“Sun Wukong knows the 72 Transformations, I like this skill.”
“He can cross one hundred and eight thousand miles with one Somersault Cloud!”
“He even took the Dragon Palace’s Sea-Calming Divine Needle and altered the King of Yama’s Book of Life and Death.”
“Monkey Brother is so handsome, afraid of no one!”

Among the children, one passed it to ten, and ten to a hundred.

Because the first chapter of the game was free, the children could directly download it using their own phones without needing to go through the “parental verification and payment” stage.

On this day, Sunday, the download volume of Journey to the West saw another wave of explosive growth.

The kids on holiday practically mobilized collectively.

One phone after another downloaded Journey to the West, and one group chat after another was discussing Sun Wukong. Various screenshots spammed the children’s Moments, even alarming many parents and teachers.

What kind of game is this? Does it possess such magic?

Out of curiosity, parents went to search for the introduction to this game.

The topic #SunWukongIsTooStrong# that climbed the hot searches early last night not only firmly occupied the number one spot on the gaming chart, but by Sunday noon, it had been pushed to the number one spot on Weibo’s main hot searches chart by the discussions of a massive number of players!

Quite a few parents also joined the discussion.

The hot search stayed on the chart for up to 10 hours, with views exceeding a hundred million. It was evident how high the discussion level was; even people outside the gaming circle who never played games noticed the name “Sun Wukong”.

Who was this Sun Wukong at the top of the hot searches? Many people outside the circle clicked into the topic with confusion, only to be surprised to find—this was a game protagonist, and a monkey at that!

Even more people went to download this game out of curiosity.

Anyway, it was free, so they could try playing it to see.

The experts who hadn’t known about the new game launch yesterday also came admiring the fame—solely to play the Challenge Mode. Hearing that the Challenge Mode was quite difficult, it was worth a try!

The influx of a massive number of experts caused the Journey to the West game forum to also become lively.

Many strategy guides appeared in the forum’s dedicated section.

When everyone clicked in to look, they found that every expert had different trains of thought. Some jumped onto the Bull Demon King’s body to hit his head; some shrunk down and burrowed through gaps, specifically hitting his legs; videos of various weird and bizarre playstyles shocked casual players one after another—this game seems very fun ah!

Even more players ran off to download the game.

…

On Sunday, the streamers who had finished fighting the Book of Life and Death yesterday began playing the subsequent plots.

Lingmao TV streamer “Meng Tu” (Cute Rabbit) was a well-known “comedic female streamer” with very fast hand speed when playing games. She frequently held lucky draws in her stream, attracting countless water friends (viewers) to watch.

Her stream’s popularity was immensely high. At noon on Sunday, as soon as she started broadcasting, the online viewer count quickly broke a million.

Meng Tu adjusted her camera and said with a smile: “Fam, I’m back! Last night I had a dream. I dreamt my Monkey Brother was picking up seashells in the Dragon Palace, and picked up lots and lots of money. This dream is very auspicious, indicating I’m going to strike it rich this year. Let me draw a wave of 666 red envelopes for everyone!”

Countless viewers in the barrage chat spammed the screen.

[Sister Rabbit is generous!]
[The wealth-scattering rabbit is here again, quick grab the red envelopes~]
[She won’t send herself into bankruptcy this time, right?]

Meng Tu drank a mouthful of milk tea and said: “Yesterday we played to the fifth level. Monkey Brother very domineeringly turned the Ghost Realm’s Senluo Hall upside down, altered his own Book of Life and Death, and conveniently altered the Book of Life and Death for a group of monkeys.”

“I have to say, following such a Monkey King boss, all the monkeys can benefit by association!”

“However, I feel the situation isn’t looking too good. Monkey Brother offended the Dragon King of the East Sea, and then offended the King of Yama of the Ghost Realm. It seems these people are going to the Heavenly Court to lodge complaints.”

“According to the game’s setting, the Heaven Realm’s Jade Emperor is equivalent to the big boss. The people from the Dragon Palace and Ghost Realm are all his subordinates. Having been bullied, they naturally have to find the leadership to complain.”

“What reaction will the big leadership have? Will he send people to catch our Monkey Brother?”

Episode Six: Great Sage Equal to Heaven

As soon as the new level started, a plot animation played.

The group of people from the Dragon Palace and Ghost Realm had indeed run up to the Heavenly Court to complain.

The Jade Emperor hadn’t expected that an inconspicuous “demon monkey” could actually cause so much trouble? Thus, he decided to send troops to eradicate the demon monkey of Mount Huaguo.

An immortal named “Taibai Jinxing” (Great White Golden Star/Venus) advised the Jade Emperor, saying this monkey was born nurtured by heaven and earth, and now his abilities were so great, he was no different from humans who cultivated to become immortals. Heaven has the virtue of loving life; why not grant him a minor official post and let him come to the Heavenly Court to conveniently keep him under control. If he committed crimes in the future, it wouldn’t be too late to capture him from nearby.

The Jade Emperor adopted this suggestion and sent Taibai Jinxing to offer amnesty and enlistment. Sun Wukong’s mind was simple, and hearing that the Heaven Realm wanted to grant him an official post, he followed Taibai Jinxing up to the Heavenly Court.

The Jade Emperor asked, what official posts have vacancies? The people of the Heaven Realm looked down on this demon monkey, so they said “The Imperial Stables lacks a supervisor.” Thus, the Jade Emperor took advantage of the situation and casually appointed Sun Wukong as “Bima Wen” (Protector of the Horses), sending him to take up the post.

Sun Wukong arrived at the Imperial Stables.

There were over a thousand Heavenly Horses of various colors here, each robust and spirited.

System: Obtained Title [Bima Wen]
System: Quest Updated—[Learn to feed the Heavenly Horses]

Meng Tu said: “Letting us feed horses? Fine, how do you feed Heaven Realm horses?”

Following the system guidance, she first drove these horses to eat grass. After eating grass, she had to take them for a few laps around the racecourse, then bathe them, and after bathing, lead them to rest.

The next morning, continue eating grass…

After the quest looped and repeated several times, Meng Tu couldn’t help but complain: “Looping feeding horses, it’s so boring ah! Our Monkey Brother definitely feels bored, right?”

Soon, a line of text appeared on screen: Half a month later.

Animated plot played.

Sun Wukong was bored and chatting with a few subordinates, and they chatted about the ranks of official grades. He asked curiously: “This Bima Wen of mine, what kind of official title is it? What rank is it?”

A subordinate said: “It has no rank.”

Sun Wukong was puzzled: “No rank? Does it mean the official is extremely high?”

The subordinate: “Not high, not high, it is an unclassified rank. The lowest and smallest official, only able to raise horses.”

Sun Wukong was enraged: “Looking down on Old Sun like this! I, Old Sun, proclaimed myself king at Mount Huaguo, with countless monkey subjects. Yet you actually coaxed me to the Heaven Realm to raise horses for him? I, Old Sun, quit!” (Note 1)

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Wukong flipped a Somersault Cloud out of the Heaven Realm and nimbly returned to Mount Huaguo.

The viewers watching the animation were all stunned.

[Our Monkey Brother went on strike?]
[Might as well not want this Heaven Realm residency!]
[Sun Wukong expresses: What kind of trash job is this? I quit]
[Isn’t being the Monkey King more satisfying? I even felt that horse-raising quest was very boring]

The “sense of immersion” in this game was indeed superb. The horse-raising quest the system issued just now had Meng Tu doing it continuously for five rounds, which was truly boring to death.

It was hard to imagine if Sun Wukong stayed in the Heaven Realm forever, whether he would go crazy from being cooped up.

No wonder he went on strike and quit.

Giving him the smallest official post and making him raise horses—anyone would go on strike, alright? What’s so great about your Heaven Realm residency? Rather than feeding horses every day, he might as well return to Mount Huaguo and freely be the Monkey King!

The players all began to empathize with Sun Wukong and thoroughly understood his choice.

After going on strike, Sun Wukong returned to Mount Huaguo. A monkey asked him what official post he had gone to the Heavenly Palace to do, and Sun Wukong said angrily that he was raising horses in the Heaven Realm. The monkeys suggested: “Since Your Majesty possesses such divine abilities, why not become a ‘Great Sage Equal to Heaven’ and share the lifespan of heaven and earth!”

Sun Wukong was extremely happy: “Good, good! You guys make a banner immediately, and write the four words ‘Great Sage Equal to Heaven’ on it. From today onwards, I, Old Sun, am—the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!”

System: Obtained Title [Great Sage Equal to Heaven]

Meng Tu clicked open the menu. The current titles were three: Handsome Monkey King, Bima Wen, and Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

She selected the newly obtained “Great Sage Equal to Heaven” to equip. In front of the player “Sun Wukong,” the four glittering golden words “Great Sage Equal to Heaven” appeared, looking quite handsome.

[Great Sage Equal to Heaven, sharing the lifespan of heaven and earth, my Monkey Brother 666]
[After going on strike, Monkey Brother is going to set up his own household]
[Other people get fired by their boss, but our Monkey Brother is awesome, directly firing the boss]
[Firing the boss actually works!]
[Hahaha, the Jade Emperor is going to die of anger]

The Jade Emperor was indeed very angry.

Gave you an official post, but instead you directly go on strike and quit, and even self-proclaim as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!

The Jade Emperor decided to send troops to capture Sun Wukong.

In the animation, the Heaven Realm’s troop deployment formation was extremely spectacular.

Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, bringing the Third Prince Nezha, along with a host of subordinate generals and hundreds of thousands of heavenly troops and generals, rode the clouds and mounted the mist, heading all the way from beyond the highest heavens to Mount Huaguo.

Meng Tu: “They’re here, they’re here, the people from the Heaven Realm are here, our Monkey Brother is in danger.”

The background music suddenly became hot-blooded.

Looks like it’s another “boss fight”!

The first boss to enter battle was called the “Giant Spirit God,” wielding an axe.

The skill design of this boss wasn’t difficult. As long as one rapidly repositioned to dodge the axe chops and seized the opportunity to counterattack, Sun Wukong could deal 10000+ critical hit damage with one strike of his cudgel, quickly beating him to death.

The battle pacing was immensely exhilarating, utterly crushing the boss. After finishing the fight, Sun Wukong jumped onto a tree and laughed loudly, mocking: “Coward! Old Sun will spare you today, go quickly and deliver the message!”

Covered in dirt, the Giant Spirit God went back to deliver the message: This demon monkey is a bit formidable, can’t beat him ah.

Third Prince Nezha applied for battle.

Seeing him, Sun Wukong couldn’t help but run his mouth: “Hahaha, a cute baby has arrived! Your baby teeth haven’t fallen out, your fetal hair hasn’t dried. I, Old Sun, won’t fight you, I’ll spare your life first!”

Nezha was infuriated and scolded: “How much ability can you, a demon monkey, possess to dare call yourself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven? Take a strike from my sword!” Saying that, he transformed with a shake, directly conjuring three heads and six arms.

The three-headed, six-armed Nezha held a Demon-Slaying Sword in some hands, a Huntian Ribbon in others, and stepped on Wind and Fire Wheels, looking extremely formidable. Finding this child hard to deal with, Sun Wukong shouted: Transform!

Instantly conjuring three clones.

Meng Tu was stunned: “Holy crap, do I have to control three Sun Wukongs to fight Nezha? This is a bit hard ah!”

This level fighting Nezha was indeed a bit difficult.

Nezha had three heads and six arms, could release many skills, sometimes stabbing you with a sword, sometimes tying you up with the Huntian Ribbon. The player needed to rapidly switch between the three Sun Wukongs, equivalent to “using one mind for three tasks.”

The viewers watching the stream also grew nervous one after another.

[This child can crack open on the spot, three heads and six arms is a bit formidable!]
[Cracking open on the spot, dying of laughter]
[So what if he can crack open? Our Monkey Brother can even copy-paste on the spot!]
[This level won’t be easy to pass]
[I tried it at noon, Challenge Mode Nezha is very hard to fight]
[Sister Rabbit, you can do it]

In this level, because Sun Wukong had transformed into three monkeys himself, the player had to control three Sun Wukongs simultaneously, getting so flustered that there was simply no time to use the “72 Transformations” skill.

Meng Tu switched back and forth between the three Sun Wukongs; the slightest carelessness would result in getting hit.

After restarting several times, she discovered the pattern and said: “Nezha’s three heads and six arms won’t release skills simultaneously. We just need to pay attention to the side he releases the skill from, switch to the corresponding Sun Wukong to dodge, and the other two Sun Wukongs will automatically attack him!”

After discovering this pattern, it indeed became much easier to pass.

The boss fight lasted for over 10 minutes. When Nezha’s health reached 10%, it automatically switched to an animation.

In the animation, Sun Wukong suddenly plucked a fine hair, shouted “Transform,” and that fine hair turned into an exact replica of him. It stood in front of Nezha to attract the other party’s attention, while his main body seized the opportunity to leap up, jump onto the top of Nezha’s head, and strike down with his cudgel—

With a muffled thud, Nezha was struck on the head with the cudgel. Under the intense pain, he reverted to his original form and rapidly ran back to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King’s side.

Seeing that even Nezha couldn’t beat Sun Wukong, Li Jing hurriedly retreated his troops.

Meng Tu smiled and said: “They retreated, this bunch from the Heaven Realm can’t beat my Monkey Brother.”

The barrage chat was also excitedly spamming the screen.

[Great Sage 666!]
[Jade Emperor having a headache: What should we do about this?]
[Sun Wukong: Is that all?]
[Your Heaven Realm only has this bit of strength, I, Old Sun, might as well start my own business!]

After Li Jing returned to the Heavenly Palace to report, the Jade Emperor was extremely worried. Taibai Jinxing came up with another idea: Since he wants to be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, why not call him back to the Heavenly Court and grant him the title of Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Anyway, this title is just in name only and has no real power.

[This Taibai Jinxing is just a peacemaker ah!]
[Can’t beat him? Continue giving him a job, let him be a leader this time]
[A leader with no real power, Heaven Realm big scammer]
[I feel like Monkey Brother definitely won’t be able to stay in the Heaven Realm]

The players had predicted correctly.

The Heaven Realm came to seek peace with Sun Wukong, saying they were willing to grant him the title of Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Sun Wukong didn’t understand these people’s intentions and went up to the heavens elatedly to be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. This “Great Sage Equal to Heaven” was a sinecure, so when Sun Wukong was bored, he would stroll aimlessly around the Heaven Realm all day, making many friends.

The system quests also updated, letting the player travel to their heart’s content in the Heaven Realm and get to know many NPCs.

Meng Tu took quite a few screenshots of the beautiful scenery. Not gonna lie, the Heaven Realm’s landscape modeling looked quite nice!

After a period of time, someone in the Heaven Realm couldn’t stand it anymore, believing that being too idle would cause him to stir up trouble, and asked the Jade Emperor to find him something to do.

The Jade Emperor assigned Sun Wukong to oversee the Flat Peach Orchard.

[Hahaha, making a monkey watch a peach orchard, what were they thinking?]
[I’m convinced, what difference is this from making a cat watch over a fish tank?]
[Peaches are so delicious, can my Monkey Brother resist?]
[Even I couldn’t resist!]

The viewers in the stream truly couldn’t understand the Jade Emperor’s operation.

Making a monkey watch the peach orchard, you didn’t make a mistake, right?

---

Level Seven: Flat Peach Banquet.

Seeing this line of text appear on screen, Meng Tu felt excited, yet extremely reluctant to part with it, saying: “Level seven already? Looking at the introduction, the first chapter seems to only have seven levels, right? I haven’t played enough yet!”

Many viewers in the stream felt unsatisfied. Everyone had been thoroughly drawn in by Sun Wukong’s story and wanted to see his subsequent story.

The gameplay of the previous six levels had been very interesting. What content would the seventh level have? Everyone was quite looking forward to it.

The opening played a segment of animation.

In the Flat Peach Orchard, Sun Wukong discovered that the peaches here were big and fragrant, and couldn’t help but drool. Monkeys inherently liked eating peaches, and he had never seen such big peaches before.

The few minor immortals guarding the Flat Peach Orchard reminded him that this was the Queen Mother’s Flat Peach Orchard; the peaches were exclusively for the Flat Peach Banquet and could not be eaten stealthily. On the surface, Sun Wukong said he understood, but rolling his eyes, he found an excuse saying he wanted to sleep. Pretending to fall asleep, he drove these people away.

After the people left, he suddenly sat up, flew onto a peach tree, and began eating peaches.

System: Quest Updated—[Eat all the large Flat Peaches in the Flat Peach Orchard]
System: The Seven Fairies are about to arrive to pick Flat Peaches, please be careful not to be discovered by them.

Meng Tu: “Holy crap, this level is about eating peaches!”

Inside the vast Flat Peach Orchard, densely packed large peaches flashed with a soft light.

The player needed to rapidly pick and eat these peaches. They could use movement techniques like climbing and jumping to scale the trees, or the Somersault Cloud movement skill to fly directly onto the trees.

Simple Mode only required eating the peaches.

In Challenge Mode, Sun Wukong would be affected by a negative environmental buff, continuously losing health, and only by eating peaches could he recover health. If he didn’t eat a peach within 5 seconds, his health bar would drop to 0 and he would have to restart.

At the same time, the Seven Fairies, these seven NPCs, would patrol the Flat Peach Orchard. While eating peaches, one also had to dodge them and couldn’t be discovered by them early!

Meng Tu had just eaten two peaches when she was discovered by the Seven Fairies and could only restart.

Sometimes the peach trees were far apart, and the movement skill happened to be on cooldown. Not being able to eat a peach within 5 seconds and losing health wouldn’t work either.

After continuously restarting several times, Meng Tu said helplessly: “This peach-eating level is quite hard. We need to rationally plan our path! Let me try a few times first to map out the Seven Fairies’ patrol locations. For places with few peach trees, we should rationally use movement skills to fly over. For places where peaches are dense, we can save them to eat later.”

The viewers watched the streamer play with great relish.

This peach-eating level design truly possessed great entertainment value!

Under the streamer’s control, Sun Wukong rapidly climbed, jumped, and flew with movement skills, nimbly shuttling between the peach trees, dodging the Seven Fairies’ patrols, while rapidly eating peaches.

The number of peaches Sun Wukong had eaten would be displayed on the screen.

One, five, ten…

This monkey actually ate up all the mature large peaches in the Flat Peach Orchard!

[Monkey Brother ate up all the Flat Peaches, he’s in danger now]
[The leadership who made the decision to let a monkey watch the peach orchard also bears responsibility, right]
[Exactly ah, what was the Jade Emperor thinking?]

Regardless of what the Jade Emperor was thinking, anyway, everyone knew Sun Wukong had stirred up trouble again.

The Seven Fairies came to the Flat Peach Orchard and looked closely—where are my big, round peaches? Why are they gone?

They had no choice but to pick some unripe small peaches. When one of the fairies was picking a peach, a leaf fell down. As a result, Sun Wukong happened to have shrunk his body and was sleeping on the leaf, and fell down along with it.

Sun Wukong picked up his Golden Cudgel, ready to beat people up. The Seven Fairies hurriedly explained that they were sent by the Queen Mother to pick peaches, as Her Highness was hosting the Flat Peach Grand Banquet and had invited many immortals to attend the banquet.

Sun Wukong asked: “Have you invited me?”

The Seven Fairies spoke the truth: “The Great Sage was not invited.”

Sun Wukong was very angry inside. Chanting a mantra, he rooted the Seven Fairies to the spot, and ran off to the Flat Peach Banquet himself. Encountering many immortals coming to attend the banquet on the way, Sun Wukong lied, saying: “The Jade Emperor had me, Old Sun, pass a message, telling you to wait in the Hall of Universal Brightness first!”

The immortals were all deceived away by him.

Sun Wukong ran off to the Flat Peach Banquet by himself. There was too much delicious food here. He ate to his heart’s content, drank too much wine, and dizzyingly wandered around aimlessly, wandering all the way to the Tushita Palace in the Nine Heavens.

This was the place where Taishang Laojun refined immortal elixirs. Sun Wukong saw five gourds beside the elixir furnace, fully filled with various rare immortal elixirs. Without another word, he grabbed them and ate, eating them all up in one breath.

System: Consumed [Immortal Elixirs Refined by Taishang Laojun], Attack +2000, Defense +2000.

Meng Tu: “My Monkey Brother ate blindly, his combat power is even stronger now!”

After eating, Sun Wukong sobered up. Realizing he had stirred up trouble, he hurriedly oiled his soles (slipped away) and sneaked back to Mount Huaguo. And at this time, the Heaven Realm’s Lingxiao Treasure Hall was completely in chaos.

First, the Queen Mother came to complain to the Jade Emperor, saying Sun Wukong had eaten all the Flat Peaches and ruined the Flat Peach Banquet. Closely following, Taishang Laojun came to complain, saying all the immortal elixirs he had painstakingly refined were gone!

Then another group of immortals came running to complain, saying Sun Wukong forged the Jade Emperor’s orders, making them wait in the Hall of Universal Brightness for a long time.

The Jade Emperor: “…”

[Hahaha, encountering this kind of subordinate, the big leader is going to go crazy]
[Jade Emperor: Collapsing]
[Monkey Brother is truly too mischievous, turning the Dragon Palace upside down, turning the Ghost Realm upside down, and now turning the Heaven Realm upside down again]
[He’s a monkey, how would he understand those human rules?]

Although Sun Wukong caused trouble everywhere and constantly stirred up disasters…

But miraculously, the players liked him more and more!

This monkey was unfettered and unconstrained, free and easy, doing whatever he wanted, fearing neither heaven nor earth. Whoever came to catch him, he would beat them up!

This was completely different from those heroic protagonists in traditional cartoons who went around saving people everywhere.

Very naughty, very rebellious… and also full of personality!

Of course, the Heaven Realm wouldn’t swallow this dumb loss (suffer in silence), and the Jade Emperor sent troops to capture Sun Wukong again.

The people sent this time were more numerous than last time, and the lineup was also more formidable.

With one look, it was a chain boss fight ah!

The first to appear were the Nine Luminaries. The nine small bosses indiscriminately bombarded with magic from the sky. The player needed to control Sun Wukong to rapidly reposition and dodge skills. After resisting the pressure for a period of time, they could trigger a staged plot, unleashing an ultimate move to kill them and drive them back.

The second to appear was the combination boss: The Four Heavenly Kings.

The Eastern Heavenly King Dhrtarastra (Chiguo), holding a pipa (lute), used sound waves for large-area magical attacks. After the sound waves hit the player, it would halve the player’s attack power and directly clear their defense to zero.

The Southern Heavenly King Virudhaka (Zengzhang), holding a precious sword, had extremely formidable single-target attack skills. The giant sword stabbed down from the sky, taking off half the player’s health with one strike!

The Western Heavenly King Virupaksa (Guangmu), with a dragon wrapped around his arm, would release the dragon to bite people. That dragon could automatically pursue the player, and getting bitten by the dragon would put the player in a paralyzed state, rooting them to the spot for 1 second.

There was also the Northern Heavenly King Vaisravana (Duowen), holding a precious umbrella. His umbrella would form a defensive shield; after opening the umbrella, hitting him wouldn’t drop his health, and after closing it, he could continue to attack you.

1v4!

The difficulty of this level was extremely high.

Four bosses, taking turns releasing skills. The slightest carelessness and you’d die and have to restart.

Meng Tu died continuously many times and helplessly sought help from the netizens in the stream: “Has anyone passed this level? Fam, save me! I am not a Great Sage, I am a noob monkey.”

[Someone passed on Normal Mode, kill Heavenly King Chiguo first]
[His pipa is very annoying, continuously lowering stats]
[An expert on the forum posted a guide: kill the Pipa first, then kill the Dragon, the Sword, and finally the one with the umbrella]

Meng Tu said excitedly: “Okay, I’ll try again!”

The Four Heavenly Kings combination boss fight was designed very interestingly. Which of the four bosses to kill first and which to kill later required quite a bit of consideration. Moreover, the player having to dodge the skills of four bosses was truly super hard.

Worthy of Challenge Mode, the streamers began to hover between life and death again.

Meng Tu spent a full hour, dying countless times, before finally defeating the four Heavenly Kings.

She had just breathed a sigh of relief when the Heaven Realm began playing an animation again. Bodhisattva Guanyin of the South Sea arrived at the Heaven Realm to help and dispatched her own disciple to capture Sun Wukong alive.

Boss fight round three, Sun Wukong vs Muzha!

[This disciple of Guanyin’s seems to be very awesome too!]
[He said he is the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King’s Second Prince, Nezha’s older brother?]
[Is this a relay battle? Another boss has arrived!]

Muzha held iron rods in both hands, with immensely strong attack power.

This level was practically close-quarters hand-to-hand combat, demanding extremely high operational technique.

The player needed to continuously parry, counterattack…

By the time Meng Tu finished fighting Muzha, she was already exhausted.

Thinking this was the end of it, as a result, the Heaven Realm began playing an animation again.

Meng Tu: “Holy crap, are this bunch from the Heaven Realm ever going to stop ah!”

[Monkey Brother has already beaten back three waves, and they still dare to come?]
[Guanyin recommended a person, from the description he seems to be very awesome]
[Erlang Shen? The Jade Emperor’s biological nephew?]
[666, even the biological nephew is here]
[Relatives are making an appearance, looks like the Heaven Realm is out of options]
[This nephew seems to be a bit awesome]
[Monkey Brother is in danger!]

Chain boss fight, round four, Sun Wukong vs Erlang Shen Yang Jian.

By this time, the time had unknowingly reached 10:00 PM on Sunday night.

Having played the game continuously for over ten hours, Meng Tu didn’t feel bored in the slightest; rather, the more she fought, the more spirited she became. Anyway, it was already the seventh level. Tonight, she absolutely had to clear it before she could go to sleep!
