Tang Sanzang glimpses the bloody crime of Ling Mountain in a dream, and an inexplicable lotus-gold pattern identical to the one behind Liuer’s ear appears in his palm; Guanyin secretly lays out her plan, using golden needles as a guide in an attempt to awaken the true Great Sage Equal to Heaven; and beneath Tathagata’s control, a shocking conspiracy concerning the truth of Buddhism is gradually coming to light...
