Category: Light novel-funny rants.

【Introduction】

Traveling through time and space, he became Tang Sanzang, and then he became invincible. No matter how powerful the monster was, he could defeat it with one punch!!!
However, this Journey to the West seems a little different?

Tang Sanzang said he was under a lot of pressure as he had to take his four cute disciples on the journey and guard against all kinds of goblins and fairies.

One day when he ascended to the Western Paradise, Tang Sanzang stood in the hall, looked at the Buddha, and said calmly: "Disciple Sanzang, carrying the wishes of all sentient beings in the three realms, asks the Buddha to abdicate."

【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter 1: One Punch Tang Sanzang. The protagonist travels back in time to become Tang Sanzang, and incidentally eats the Golden Cicada, who also traveled back in time, successfully becoming the master of his body. He bids farewell to his deceased master and encounters a monster on the way, which he defeats with a single punch. He mutters to himself that he's never encountered a monster worthy of a second punch.

Chapter Two, Untitled. The protagonist enters the palace by imperial decree. From outside, he can hear the emperor attending to government affairs, seemingly in a bad mood. As they walk and chat, the protagonist learns that the emperor is planning a water and land ceremony. This isn't because he's afraid of the King of Hell's threats, nor is it to mourn the fallen soldiers. Rather, the emperor only has three years left, and he feels compelled to do something to ensure his remembrance. After drinking, the protagonist isn't drunk, but the emperor is.

Chapter 3: The Walking Sun Wind Chime. The emperor dreams of killing people and demons, and the protagonist chants sutras to dispel the evil spirits. The next day, the emperor bestows upon the protagonist a brocade cassock. It's not magical, but it has built-in sound effects and lighting. It's a bit pricey, but it's truly dazzling. Everyone who sees it can't help but give it a new nickname. There's a twist: the emperor might actually be a woman.

Chapter 4: Letting Go of the Bodhisattva. At the Water and Land Assembly, the protagonist complains about the three incense sticks being uneven and relights them, prompting the monks to speculate on the meaning. The protagonist lectures on the Lotus Sutra, and the ugly monk transformed by Guanyin praises the protagonist's handsomeness. This is met with skepticism, leading to him revealing his true form and nearly falling from the clouds from the emperor's fright. This chapter is heavily reworked.

Chapter 5: Girls shouldn't have bad tempers. Guanyin falls from the clouds and is caught by the protagonist. Mu Cha is furious and shouts at her. The emperor orders Wei Jia to stop her, but her magic is no match for Mu Cha. In the end, the protagonist intervenes and stops Mu Cha. Alas, this book has been heavily rewritten.

【Brief Comment】

Qingyu Jianghu, a level 5 author, has written five works: "Jinyuan", "Legend of the Supporting Character in the Mortal's Journey to Immortality", "Powerful Minister Assisting the Country", "One-Punch Tang Monk", and "Daddy's Restaurant in Another World".

Three books are still extant.

Today, the book "One Punch Tang Monk" has 2.93 collections on Qidian, 13 collections in the bookstore, 7.82 fans, and no leader.

I don't know if this author is a man or a woman, but the themes of her books are quite varied. Today's book is particularly capricious, with a very exaggerated adaptation of Journey to the West. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty is actually a woman, his important minister Wei Jia is also a woman, the Bodhisattva who seeks the pilgrim is a woman, and the disciple Mu Cha is also a woman.

Only the protagonist Tang Seng is a man.

Therefore, although it is labeled as anti-routine, the magical changes are still extremely serious.

Some time ago, I was very fond of reading these magically adapted books. After recommending some historical novels, I now feel a little uncomfortable.

I simply feel that the changes have gone a bit too far.

Moreover, there doesn't seem to be a perfect ending.

So, even now, after more than four years, we still haven’t achieved a masterpiece.

If you are interested, you can go and see if it is suitable for you.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment!

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to promote “Cang’s Ramblings”!
Welcome to the paradise of book reviews.

【Cang's Ramblings】

This book is actually okay, quite interesting to read.

It’s just that if you play with memes too much, you will get aesthetic fatigue.

So, after seeing the problem for sure, the key question is how long it can last.

Actually, not long ago~
