Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

Sun Shisheng was a flicker of Sun Wukong's True Spirit, and naturally, he could see certain fates.

In this class, someone possessed a great destiny.

A person's fate could be of two types.

One was the Heavenly Fate, the externally added path of fate, mysteriously cherished by the heavens.

The other was the Personal Fate.

This type was related to one's own abilities, personality, and behaviors.

In some sense, this Personal Fate was more important, for even if the heavens favored you, if you couldn't grasp it, it all ended up being in vain.

And this classmate of Sun Shisheng, favored by the heavens, had a destiny that turned into a nine-colored auspicious vision, vaguely related to Yuanshi Tianzun... Could this person be the reincarnation of Yuanshi Tianzun in this Saha World?

However, his own personal fate was extremely poor.

Sun Shisheng could tell that he was insecure, silent, and taciturn. He had hardly any friends in class, and although his academic performance wasn't the worst, it was still among the bottom ten.

Sun Shisheng connected with the worldly thoughts to understand his situation.

His name was Wang Chao, and his family's circumstances were similar to his own. He had studied hard in junior high and managed to get into the top Jiangnan Number One Middle School, but upon arriving, he found he did not fit in with the others nor could he relate to them.

He was sensible and youthful yet insecure.

Just one month after the start of the first year of high school, his academic performance was declining day by day, barely enough to make it to university.

"Classmate, you seem quite listless,"

during the break, Sun Shisheng pulled up a chair and sat next to Wang Chao, introducing himself familiarly, "Everyone else is either playing basketball on the playground or walking in the corridors, yet you seem to lack the spirit?"

Wang Chao looked up, hurriedly waving his hands, "No... not really, I just... prefer to be alone, I don't like the hustle and bustle."

"You don't like hustle and bustle, what do you like then?" Sun Shisheng asked.

"It might sound a bit childish, but I like martial arts, like being a gallant knight, defending the just and upholding the righteous."

Wang Chao's face turned slightly red as he whispered, "For example, the Nine Yang Scripture from The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, the Nine Yin White Bone Claw from The Legend of the Condor Heroes, and so on."

Speaking of it, Wang Chao also found it a bit strange.

If it had been before, he would never have discussed these matters with anyone else because this was Jiangnan Number One Middle School, the top school in the city where students mostly discussed test questions, not these unrelated subjects.

He would be laughed at!

Sun Shisheng, however, understood.

For high school students of this age, with concepts of maturity and immaturity, they believe that studying hard is mature, and wasting time elsewhere is childish.

Perhaps when they recall this period, they all have a sense of mixed feelings.

"Martial arts?" Sun Shisheng smiled, "I know some too, like the Seventy-two Transformations, Three Heads and Six Arms, Law of Heaven and Earth, and the Cloud Somersaults."

Wang Chao's mouth twitched, unable to resist saying, "Are you sure that's martial arts? Isn't that Sun Wukong?"

Sun Shisheng laughed, "Is there a difference?"

"Well, there's no difference." Wang Chao shook his head, "They're both unreal things that don't exist in the real world, just figments of people's imaginations."

"What if I told you that I really can do it?"

Sun Shisheng's eyes were clear and profound, and for a moment, Wang Chao was somewhat unable to extricate himself.

"Hiss—"

Wang Chao came to his senses, sucking in a breath of cold air.

He didn't understand what had just happened to him. Could it be that this nine-year-old Sun Shisheng really knew spells?

No! No!

It must be because he didn't sleep well last night.

"Sun Shisheng, you must be joking," Wang Chao took a deep breath, feeling his spirit much improved.

"I'll teach you a breathing technique, do you want to learn?" Sun Shisheng squinted his eyes.

"What breathing technique? You didn't really buy a martial arts scripture, did you?" Wang Chao looked at him oddly, those were all fake, he had heard of people practicing according to martial arts scriptures and ending up with a cerebral hemorrhage.

"Of course not," Sun Shisheng said, "It's my own creation."

A creation?

You think you're a martial arts master, huh?

Wang Chao rolled his eyes. Even if he were a real martial arts master, he wouldn't have any inner strength, at most he would be experienced, knowing the weakest parts of the human body, and would use his strengths against others' weaknesses.

At least that's what the so-called martial arts masters on TV seemed like.

"Do you want to learn?" Sun Shisheng asked with a smile.

"Yes."

Wang Chao agreed as if possessed by a ghost.

Simply because Sun Shisheng was the only one in the class who had initiated a conversation with him, and they had a pleasant chat. Talking with him felt comfortable, refreshing like a spring breeze, without fostering any resentment.

And the breathing technique... it was probably just a special way of breathing at most, maybe just causing a hiccup, there shouldn't be any serious issues.

"Then listen closely—"

Wang Chao frowned deeply.

He felt that Sun Shisheng was playing with him.

Wasn't this passage the one Patriarch Bodhi taught to Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West"?

He dared say that most people in the class knew a line or two.

"Do you think I'm deceiving you?" Sun Shisheng asked.

"Honestly, yes," Wang Chao nodded seriously, "You don't think this passage is really a Qi Refinement mantra, do you?"

"It actually is."

Sun Shisheng nodded, but mortals could not deduce any practical effects from the Cultivation Technique; at most, they might comprehend some profound life truths, "Right now, don't limit yourself to the literal meaning of the text. Follow how I read it and repeat."

Wang Chao, who believed he had read "Journey to the West," scoffed, "It's simple, profound secrets universally penetrated, truly marvelous mantra···"

"Wrong!"

"The first sentence is wrong!"

Wang Chao hadn't even finished when Sun Wukong interrupted, "It's: profound secrets universally penetrated~truly~marvelous mantra."

Wang Chao was stunned, where went wrong?

Weren't the words profound secrets universally penetrated, truly marvelous mantra?

The words were correct.

Then, he mimicked it again, "Profound secrets universally penetrated~truly~marvelous mantra··· is it like this, it seems it's all about the reading pace and tone."

"Exactly."

Sun Shisheng smiled, "A so-called mantra is not just about remembering; it must be read in a specific way, or it won't have any effect."

"Reading way?" Wang Chao was confused.

"Breathing, you know about that, right? An essential activity for the human body to generate work, converting organics into carbon dioxide and water and releasing energy for bodily activities."

Seeing Wang Chao nod, Sun Shisheng continued, "The mantra's content is not important for you, what matters is using different reading styles to adjust different breathing patterns. By doing so, the energy can be directed to specific parts of your body, hence making you transcend."

"The easiest method for beginners to get a foothold is to correctly recite the mantra, using corresponding breathing methods through the mouth and nose, adjusting your whole respiratory system in your body, and then leading to a whole-body effect."

"If you are diligent, as I observe, you might transform yourself in about half a year."

Wang Chao: "······"

Although he felt that what Sun Shisheng said indeed made some sense, he still found it a bit nonsensical.

Can this really cultivate?

"Of course."

"Oh, I'll give it a try," Wang Chao nodded, suddenly pausing as he just remembered, he hadn't asked any questions, had he?

No!

Could Sun Shisheng have Mind Reading Technique?!

It must be a coincidence.

Sun Shisheng smiled slightly, "I guess you must be thinking, 'Can I read minds, right?'"

"You!?" Wang Chao was horrified, could it be that Sun Shisheng really had learned the Immortal Law?

Maybe it was true.

After all, growing so large at nine might really be due to the Immortal Law.

"Stop guessing; your expression laid out your thoughts completely," Sun Shisheng said.

"Was it that obvious?"

"It was that obvious."

Sun Shisheng continued smiling, "For the following days, just as I said, frequently open your mouth to recite; it will work."

Wang Chao said, "That would be really embarrassing, wouldn't it?"

If he really recited it out loud, he probably would socially die.

"Only in the beginning. As you gradually get accustomed to the new way of breathing, you won't need to speak it out loud; mental recitation will do."

"However, my advice to you, the best effect comes from singing it."

Just then, the class bell rang, and Sun Shisheng returned to his seat.

His spot was towards the back, right next to the window.

While the teacher lectured at the podium, he was gazing at the cypress trees outside the window, thinking, "Wang Chao, whether or not you are tasked by the universe's Yuanshi, forming a good karma connection is always great."

······

Sun Wukong looked at the simulator containing Wang Chao, contemplating, "Yuanshi Tianzun, eh? When master was teaching me, he said that traces of Dao and Buddha are present in all the heavens, it truly seems so."

"Besides, that Earth has the book 'Journey to the West,' no wonder during the last simulation, almost all Heavenly Demons who descended into the three realms recognized me."

"Never thought that I, Old Sun, would be so famous on that Earth."

[At nine, under your parent's demand, you honestly attend high school. In the first month of school, you meet Wang Chao, the Child of Fortune, and establish a good karma connection.]

[Because your academic performance is exceptionally good, even though you always look out the window during class, no teacher lectures you.]

[You occasionally pay attention to Wang Chao and find that he is truly devoted to practicing the breathing technique you taught him; his spirit, energy, and appearance have improved significantly, and even his academic performance has slightly increased, receiving praise from teachers.]

[At ten, you discover Wang Chao often practices the breathing technique in a secluded park, his body becoming stronger than before, his temples remarkably raised, his face radiating health.]

[However, he realized he was eating quite a lot. His family didn't have much money and wanted to earn some.]

[Then, he came to you······]
