Chinese Name: 西游记

Summary: The story begins with Sun Wukong, a stone-born monkey who gains immortality and supernatural powers through Taoist cultivation. After rebelling against the Jade Emperor of Heaven, he is imprisoned under a mountain by Buddha for 500 years. Tripitaka, a pious monk, is tasked by the Tang Emperor to travel to India to retrieve sacred Buddhist scriptures. Buddha arranges for Sun Wukong to be freed to protect Tripitaka, joined by Zhu Bajie, a former heavenly marshal turned pig-like creature, Sha Wujing, a reformed river demon, and Yulong, a dragon prince transformed into a horse.

The group encounters 81 trials, including battles with demons, gods, and natural challenges, each testing their resolve and virtues. Sun Wukong's cunning, strength, and loyalty are central to overcoming obstacles, though his rebellious nature often causes friction. Zhu Bajie provides comic relief with his laziness and gluttony, while Sha Wujing offers steadfast support. Tripitaka, though weak, embodies compassion and determination. The journey symbolizes the path to enlightenment, with each character overcoming personal flaws. In the end, they reach India, obtain the scriptures, and achieve spiritual elevation, with Sun Wukong attaining Buddhahood as the "Victorious Fighting Buddha."
