Your definition of obstacle would end the world just by popping up.
... I'm terrified to think what it would even BE. I don't think even Mt. Everest is an obstacle to this "humble monk". He'd just walk straight THROUGH it.
Don't worry Mr. monk, that just means you all get to be close friends EVEN LONGER! :D
At that rate, he's going to pull what his Fate Grand Order counterpart did and just keep walking. Mediterranean ocean? But a puddle. Atlantic ocean. Pond. North America? Walk in the park. Pacific? Big lake. Oh hey, we're back in Tang again!
This would be the perfect time to end this series... just so it could be an obstacle worthy of this monk.
...Sigh...What's wrong, master? You don't seem to have much spirit.I'm just thinking about when will we finally retrieve the scriptures...Master, the path to retrieving the scriptures is a long one, we can't be too hasty...However, up until now we haven't even encountered one single obstacle, doesn't that mean the path ahead of us is still far...?And that's why sometimes I get worried... When will our first obstacle appear...?Guanyin Bodhisattva once said, we would have to pull through 81 obstacles, and only then we could retrieve the scriptures.
