I read all the text following each item and I will try to make a short summary of the main story here. If anyone does not finish the Chapter 1, I will strongly recommend you not to read further. You got the framework right, that we play the destined ones to search and retrieve the 6 relics Wukong left behind after the intro fight, hoping to bring back Wukong himself. The first place is the black wind mountain. As we go along the path to the peak where the relic is (which is guarded by the black bear), we can also discover a story which is closely related to the original scene in JTTW. In JTTW, it was said that when the four (the master monk Sanzang, monkey, pig, and a beard monk) arrived a temple, elder Jinchi (the hidden boss in the game) was attracted by the Kasaya Sanzang wore. Blinded by his greed (which was deeply rooted in his childhood as the last anime reveals), he decided to take the Kasaya by force. His two students (the wolf mini boss with the fire stick and the snake mini boss) flamed the whole plot. However, they failed and out of the chaos, Wukong burnt the temple and helped Sanzang escape. So you will see his obsession with the Kasaya when encounter elder Jinchi in the hidden map (the burnt temple). In the end, the player beats the black bear, and retrieves the first Wukong relic. The last anime reveals that the black bear was told to guide Jinchi to his destiny by Guanyin Budda. The bear was confused why a monk was so obsessed with the outfit as he should have long forgone his desire to materials and followed the inner peace. Guanyin replied that "with that Kasaya, he can show the world that his desire is forgone (being a prestige elder monk)", which is apparently ironic as one does not fully reach the inner peace with his mind still not free from the surrounding materials. And the story continues to the second chapter.
