Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The Birth of the Stone Monkey

In the land of Dongsheng Shenzhou, there is a country named Aolai. Aolai is situated near the great sea, and within the sea, there is a mountain called Huaguo Mountain. This Huaguo Mountain is the ancestral mountain range of the ten continents, formed since the beginning of heaven and earth, and the birth of the universe.

This miraculous occurrence, the various wonders of nature and the universe, all seem to resonate with the grandeur of the heavenly and earthly paths and the laws of the cosmos. Among them is an extraordinary stone known as the Immortal Stone.

The Immortal Stone is devoid of trees and shade on all sides, basking in the natural beauty since the creation of the world by Pangu, bathed in the essence of the sun and moon. Over time, the Immortal Stone unexpectedly nurtures an Immortal Sibling within! Upon closer inspection, a fetus-like entity is discovered within this Immortal Sibling. "It has been countless years since I took on this form. As long as that old man injects the breath of life into me once more, I may obtain a new life," murmurs the entity suddenly, and the fetus-like object within opens its eyes, revealing a joyful expression.

"The last infusion of life breath has been completely absorbed by me. If all goes well, that old man should be arriving in the next few days," mutters the fetal-like entity, and in the next moment, it closes its eyes, patiently awaiting the arrival of the old man he mentioned.

Two days later, a gentle breeze sweeps by the Immortal Stone. A venerable white-bearded old man, exuding an immortal aura, suddenly appears on the previously empty mountain top. The old man, dressed in a purple eight-trigram Daoist robe, adorned with a lustrous purple-gold crown, and wearing azure dragon cloud boots, looks noble and dignified. "Finally, he has come!" the fetal-like entity senses the arrival of the awaited person and can't help but feel excited.

"Hmm? This fetus seems to have developed its own consciousness," the white-bearded old man remarks with surprise, lightly stroking his beard. It turns out the thoughts of the fetus have attracted the attention of the old man. Following this, the old man waves his right hand, and a rich surge of life force rushes in from all directions, entering the nine apertures of the Immortal Stone. The fetal entity feels the influx of life force and diligently absorbs it. The originally rudimentary fetus gradually takes shape, eagerly anticipating the complete absorption of this life force, signaling the moment of breaking free from the stone.

The white-bearded old man silently watches for a while and then quietly disappears. Time passes, and ten years elapse. Suddenly, the Immortal Stone on the Flower Fruit Mountain trembles, radiating a brilliant golden light even more dazzling than the sun in the sky. The fetal entity within the Immortal Stone exerts force to break open the stone shell. However, no matter how hard it tries, the stone shell remains unbroken.

"Hum~" The frequency of the Immortal Stone's vibrations increases, emitting thunderous sounds as if expressing the discontent of the fetal entity. In the next moment, the sky darkens, and a purple-glowing lightning bolt descends like a roaring serpent. With a crack, it strikes the Immortal Stone.

"Boom!" A deafening sound reverberates through the entire heavens and earth. The fetal entity swallows the lightning containing unparalleled power in one gulp, forcefully breaking open the enveloping stone shell, breaking free from the constraints. Amidst a myriad of radiant lights, the fetus transforms into a stone monkey as it emerges.

The newly-born stone monkey laughs excitedly three times, bows to the four directions, and directs its golden gaze towards the celestial realm, piercing through the heavenly abode. The monkey then bows down and gazes into the depths of the abyss. In the high sky, the celestial beings in the Lingxiao Hall are in a meeting. Suddenly, they witness golden lights soaring outside the South Heaven Gate. Two beams of golden light shoot straight up from the mortal realm to the thirty-third heaven. The celestial beings are astonished.

Emperor Jade dispatches Thousand-Mile Eye and Wind Following Ear to investigate. They return with a report: "Following the observation of the golden light, it was found at the Flower Fruit Mountain in the small nation of Aolai in the eastern part of the Divine Continent. There is an Immortal Stone producing an egg, and a stone monkey has emerged, directing golden light towards the heavenly palace and descending to the depths of the abyss." Emperor Jade smiles faintly, maintaining a calm demeanor. "This earthly being is born from the essence of heaven and earth, and there is no need to overly concern ourselves."

The ministers continue their discussion, but their enthusiasm has waned, and their thoughts are now focused on the stone monkey in the mortal realm. Despite Emperor Jade's reassurance, a newborn with such extraordinary power cannot be underestimated. "With all these signs, it seems destined that I am to be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, in this life!" The recently born stone monkey arrives at a stream, gazing at the reflection of a monkey face with a pointed nose and fur on the water's surface, feeling deeply shocked. Originally a talented youth of the 21st century in the prime of his life, he met a tragic end due to a conspiracy. After awakening, he remained in the stone egg and, with the help of the white-bearded old man, broke free, transforming into a stone monkey and gaining a second chance at life.

"Although I don't know why I became Sun Wukong or who that old man really is, and what schemes he might have. Since I am here, I'll accept it. Since heaven has given me a second chance at life, I won't lose control of my destiny like in the previous life!" The newly born stone monkey looks at his own reflection and silently makes a vow.
