Just as the pilgrims are about to be allowed to leave the Cart Slow Kingdom, Sun Wukong suddenly faces the one challenge he is incapable of winning.

This episode contains some very gruesome deaths, including decapitation, disembowelment and boiling oil. It also features biting insects. None of those are the the challenges Wukong can’t win though. Those are very easy challenges for him.
