DownloadAfter wreaking havoc across the heavens, pilfering a potion of immortality,
and defeating the strongest warriors in the Jade Emperor’s court,
the Monkey King had finally been captured in a white-hot prison cell.
But rather than cooking him to a crisp,
the sweltering cage had inflamed its captive’s strength.
Now he was free once more and itching for a fight.
Desperate, the Jade Emperor called on the only being stronger than he,
the supreme power in all the heavens: the Buddha himself.
