The monkey that leads you might be a "Journey to the West " reference.
Sun Wukong (voiced by James Sie) appears as a character in the Amazon series Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny, based on the popular Dreamworks franchise. However, his enemy Baigujing (translated into White Bone Demon) also makes an appearance as the main antagonist of the second half of Season 1, manipulating the Emperor's adoptive daughter into murdering him and creating an army of animated Terracotta soldiers, and later constructing a giant automaton to take over as her new body.
The boss of Yellow Desert Zone in Sonic Blast is a reference to Sun Wukong. League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, Dota 2, Paragon, and Smite all have a playable character based on the Monkey King.[37][38] Dota 2 also has an item called the Monkey King Bar which is based on Sun Wukong's weapon, Ruyi Jingu Bang.
