Thank you for the explanation. And if I’m trying to understand how each Relic relates to the Chapter’s bosses: The Craving Eyes represent greed, like how the Black Bear Guai is greedy. The Fuming Ears represent emotions, mostly anger, like how the Yellow Wind Sage is infuriated with how things really went down. The Hubris Nose for arrogance and desire, like how Yellowbrow is filled with arrogance of obtaining Buddha-hood and is drawn to desire. The Envious Tongue represents one’s emotions towards something else, like Wukong’s apparent love for the Bone Lady Demon, Violet Spider for Bajie, Bajie for desire, and I’m guessing the Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master’s desire for superiority with an bug-themed army against the Celestial Court. The Grieved Body represents the ultimatum between desires, like with Wukong becoming the Great Sage Equal to Heaven or the Victorious Fighting Buddha, or with the Bull King trying to protect his family or get revenge against the Celestial Court, which ended things badly for both of them. And lastly, the Freed Mind the represents Wukong’s grand desire for freedom from the Celestial Court and the will of the Buddha. This also shows Erlang’s secret desire to be free from the Celestial Court’s machinations, but much like a metaphorical headband, cannot do it due to his code of honor. The wildest thing about that endgame of the entire story to me was that both Wukong and the Bone Lady Demon were in a relationship in a way. What do you guys think?

I believe that's the correct answer, align with the game dev's plot and ideas. The relationship between the White Bone Lady and Wukong has also appeared in some spin-offs. It seems the game devs included these details as well. Although this doesn’t happen in the original novel, there are speculations about a romantic relationship between the White Bone Lady (originally a heavenly fairy) and Kuimulang (the Yellow Robe Yaoguai, also one of the 28 constellations). Maybe because her name literally means 'White Bone Married-lady", led to many assumptions about her romantic connections.

That does make sense if they used the spin-offs. Also, who does Kuimulang represents? (Like how Dawnstar represents the Rooster Constellation, and Kang-Jin Loong represents the Dragon Constellation, I presumed)

From what I can understand, in Buddhism, there are a lot more desires than 6. In reality, there are countless desires impossible to eliminate. The desires interact with each other through the 6 Senses. Through an impure mind, the interactions create pleasant/unpleasant/neutral sensations, causing cravings/avoidance/neutral inclinations, and sufferings follow. The detrimental effects of those things can be compared to bandits invading one's being and causing suffering. In the novel, after killing the 6 bandits, Wukong and Sanzang had an argument, then Wukong left. It was only after some convincing by the Loong King that Wukong chose to go back to Sanzang. However, Sanzang and Guanyin put the golden headband on him that would cause him pain if Sanzang recites the Tightening Spell. Crudely killing those 6 bandits perhaps is not the answer, because he got the headband as a result, with himself still being kinda untamed. Maybe the right answer is to tame the mind. Back to the game, the Relics themselves I think are simply tools/senses to gather karma/wills for more power associated with these Senses, and the detrimental effect of those senses come from minds of the ones holding/using them. And about the Old Monkey. I cannot comment much on the Old Monkey because of his interpretations of Wukong's imperfections are different from the novel itself, but I'll have to see if it was simply Game Science's interpretations, or the Old Monkey purposely being deceitful. With that in mind, I can only comment on what the Old Monkey was being inconsistent about that I can remember. - Wukong's anger did not come from not being invited to the banquet, but from being given a lowly position. The Yellow Wind Sage in the game did not take the position of a King, and he actually fled the country after the Kingdom was turned into rats. And when Yellow Wind Sage got the Ear Relic, he sealed himself in a wall of wind, as if to block the noises that could be detrimental to his training. - Wukong's blasphemous prank against the Three Pure Ones' statues stems from the Kingdom they were staying in enslaving monks from the words of three Daoist Yaoguais following the Three Pure Ones' teachings. The monks endured and waited for the arrival of the Pilgrims to enact justice as foretold by heavens. Wukong and the Pilgrims did a prank on the Yaoguais as payback. - The Old Monkey claimed Wukong could not let go of his love, but in the prologue he said Wukong simply wanted to go home and be monke. From the journal entry, Wukong found his reason to let go of Buddhahood, which is the detrimental effect of immortality on the realms. - The Old Monkey claimed that Wukong aspired for Buddhahood and freedom both. What started the game was Wukong choosing freedom over Buddhahood. He aspired to be Buddha at first because it would give him and his friends freedom. And he abandoned it also because of freedom. He has always been consistent. - The Old Monkey claimed that mind of Wukong was gone, but Erlang was bearing his Mind. I have no comment on the Craving Eyes because Jinchi was similar to a Wukong that has just returned to his home mountain and seeking armaments.

Thank you for clearify! For the deeper details, I agree. I decided to simplify them and adjust according to the Old Monkey's words, so viewers can more easily understand what he was referring to, and to avoid overcomplicating the video. I think encountering the six bandits is a hint that Wukong must eliminate these desires to be ready for Buddhahood, as it happened not long after he became Tang Sanzang’s disciple. Wukong was invited to be a celestial official twice. The first time, he was assigned to tend horses (弼馬溫 - Bì mǎ wēn). After finding out, he got angry and left for Mount Huaguo. The second time, Taibai Jinxing consulted the Jade Emperor to gave him the title 'Great Sage Equal to Heaven'-just a name to please him and The Queen Mother gave him the responsibility of guarding the peach garden. This time, Wukong got mad when he wasn't invited to the banquet, even though they called him a Sage, while all the other notable Deities and Higher Xiān (上仙) were invited. He made a scene at the banquet before it started then stole Lao Jun’s elixir pills. True, the Old Monkey’s words are quite cryptic, and it's hard to say his true identity. I also have some hypotheses, which I plan to discuss in my videos after Chapter 6. Please stop by and let me know your thoughts

The Destined One is kinda Wukong reincarnation. He’s just the one who takes up the mantle “Wukong”. It’s basically Wukong is back but not the original Wukong.

Right, I prefer thinking about it this way, which I believe the game dev thinking the same: The Destined One represents us - the players. Just a nameless descendant become worthy successor of the Great Sage, carry on his memory, free will and legacy for the The Dharma-Ending Age (A concept in Buddhism, that very much like in this game). I will make this clear in Chapter 6 video.
