Journey to the West is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature, written by Wu Cheng’en in the 16th century during the Ming Dynasty. Central to this narrative is Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King, who is a rebellious, powerful, and intelligent character renowned for his incredible magical powers. The novel is a fantastical retelling of the pilgrimage of the Buddhist monk Xuanzang to India in search of sacred scriptures, and Sun Wukong plays a critical role in protecting the monk and his companions throughout their journey. The Monkey King’s magical powers are diverse and profound, making him one of the most captivating figures in Chinese mythology and literature.

1. If Sun Wukong erased his name in the Book of Life and Death, shouldn't he became non-existed at that moment instead of becoming immortalized?
2.If he learned indestructibility, how come his master and the other deities didn't learn about it?
3. If his "Golden Eyes" can see through deception & illusions then why did these failed to see the deception of Buddha and the 6-eared Macaque?
