In Journey to the West, Sun Wukong had six forms, and his ape soul form was not the final form. His final form was the state after his second resurrection. The smile from the underworld had forged a powerful body for him with ancient meteorites. In this state, he was even stronger than before. With this state, although Sun Wukong could not defeat the Heavenly Lord of the Origin during the battle, he made the Heavenly Lord of the Origin beg for mercy. After that, the Heavenly Lord of the Origin used his strongest power to quickly seize the power of the strange scripture. Sun Wukong used this state and the power of the Golden Ring to successfully delay the Heavenly Lord of the Origin. In this state, he was close to the three ancient gods.

In the storyline of Journey to the West, the mandrill was an important character in the story of the Great Ape Soul. Sun Wukong also possessed the Great Ape Soul State. The mandrill had displayed great strength. For example, in the battle with Nine-Tails, Nine-Tails had used the Nine Agony Demon Tail Cannon on the mandrill. The mandrill had taken the attack head-on and was not injured at all. It could even use the Super Ape Qi Cannon to counterattack. When the old bull saw that the mandrill was powerful, he decided to fight it head-on. In order to deal with the mandrill, Huang Mei used a trick to summon the sand demon to set a trap. In Sun Wukong's Great Ape Soul state, he transformed into an incomparably huge and sturdy ape. Although he could not gather qi, he was stronger than many great demons who gathered qi. In this state, Sun Wukong's anger value was high and his destructive power was strong. He had once used the Great Ape Soul to attack Asura King Luohou, fight against White Bone Emperor, Vishama Heaven, Bull Demon King, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi, etc. He had repeatedly achieved extraordinary achievements, tearing the White Bone Emperor alive and almost strangling Heavenly Lord Yuanshi to death. The Great Ape Soul could follow along with Sun Wukong's reincarnation and did not need to be re-cultivated. Moreover, when Sun Wukong was fighting with Yellow-browed Old Demon, he had used the support of the monkeys to ignite his Beast Martial Soul and successfully transform. However, he was at a disadvantage in the battle with Yellow-browed Old Demon. When he was knocked down and could not stand up, he had recovered some strength due to the shouts of the monkeys.
The Great Ape Soul was a skill of Sun Wukong. When used, Sun Wukong could transform into a huge ape. It possessed great strength, was full of bestial nature, and was indestructible. It could tear apart powerful enemies with its bare hands. This skill can expand the range of damage in battle, sending the enemy flying, causing the enemy to suffer a huge amount of damage. Moreover, the Great Ape Soul can be reincarnated with Sun Wukong and does not need to be cultivated again.
In the Journey to the West, Sun Wukong's Great Ape Soul was extremely powerful. After he used the Great Ape Soul, he was even stronger than many great demons who gathered qi. His anger value was very high and his destructive power was very powerful. The Great Ape Soul possessed terrifying strength and could transform into a huge ape. In this state, it was filled with bestial nature and was indestructible. Powerful attacks were useless against it, and it could even tear the enemy apart with its bare hands. In the story, Sun Wukong had attacked the Asura King Luohou in his Great Ape Soul state, and fought against the White Bone Emperor, Vaishama Heaven, Bull Demon King, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi, and other characters. He had repeatedly achieved extraordinary achievements. This state was also one of the trump cards he used most often to deal with powerful enemies. Moreover, even if Sun Wukong couldn't gather qi, he could still contend with Heavenly Lord Yuanshi in the form of the Great Ape Soul.
In the setting of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong's ape soul form was stronger, but the text did not specify his specific strength ranking among all the characters. The Great Ape Soul was one of Sun Wukong's trump cards. After transforming into this form, he was even more powerful than many great demons who gathered qi. He had once attacked powerful enemies such as Asura King Luohou, White Bone Emperor, Vishama Heaven, Bull Demon King, and Heavenly Lord Yuanshi in this form. He had also made remarkable achievements in battle, such as tearing White Bone Emperor alive and almost pinching Heavenly Lord Yuanshi to death.
The offshoot of Journey to the West, Soul of the Great Ape, mainly told the story of Sun Wukong. One of them was Sun Wukong's previous life, where the Demon Demon dominated the Great Path of Demons and started an adventure with the human girl's fruit. In the story, there were scenes where Wukong met the Great Master and set off on the west road together. There were also scenes where he fought with many demons, such as the Red-Bottomed Horse Monkey, the Steel-Armed Ape Monkey, and the Yellow-Browed Old Demon. For example, when he was fighting with Yellow-browed Old Demon, Wukong transformed into a great ape soul and was defeated by Yellow-browed Old Demon's toad technique with his Vajra Fist. Yellow-browed wanted to swallow Wukong but was caught by Wukong because he underestimated the enemy. Wukong used Shaolin Staff Technique to break Yellow-browed's skin bag, which destroyed most of his thousand-year-old cultivation. In the end, Yellow-browed lost. In addition, in the Special Chapter of Great Ape Soul, the story of Ghostdemon in Wukong's previous life could be viewed as a new work. In his previous life, Ghostdemon dominated the Great Path of Demons and fought with various forces. In the process, he met with fruits and became bound to take risks together. This was similar to the chapter of Mad King. In this series of stories, there were also plots such as the Buddha descending to help Little Six get rid of the inner demons, Wukong entering the Karma Pool for a smile in the underworld, and the Heaven Realm was also facing various crises, such as the Great Deities Palace hitting the Heavenly Palace.
The Great Ape Soul was a form of Sun Wukong, not an independent individual. Therefore, there was no comparison between the Great Ape Soul and Sun Wukong. Among the many forms of Sun Wukong, he transformed into a huge and sturdy ape in the form of the Great Ape Soul. He could not gather qi but was much stronger than many great demons who gathered qi. This form had great strength, was full of bestial nature, and was invincible. When facing powerful enemies, he would basically use the Great Ape Soul to fight his enemies. He had used this form to tear apart the White Bone Emperor and almost pinch the Heavenly Lord Yuanshi to death. He had repeatedly made extraordinary achievements.
In the original novel of Journey to the West, it was mentioned that the Monkey King led a group of monkeys, macaques, and monkeys. Sun Wukong was a stone monkey born from a fairy stone, but it did not clearly indicate that he belonged to the category of monkeys, so it was not certain whether Sun Wukong belonged to the category of monkeys.
The Great Ape Soul was a form of Sun Wukong. It was not an individual that was independent of Sun Wukong. It was impossible to directly compare who was stronger. After Sun Wukong used the Great Ape Soul, he would transform into an incomparably huge and sturdy ape. At this moment, he was much stronger than many great demons who gathered qi. He had great strength and was full of bestial nature. He was almost invincible. When facing powerful enemies, he could tear them apart with his hands. In this form, Sun Wukong's anger value was very high and his destructive power was very powerful. He repeatedly performed extraordinary skills in battle, such as tearing apart the White Bone Emperor and almost pinching the Heavenly Lord Yuanshi to death. Therefore, the Great Ape Soul was a manifestation of Sun Wukong's powerful strength. There was no comparison between the two.
In the Dragon Ball series, Sun Wukong in the form of White God had gone through a certain development process. Three months after the goddess had taught Sun Wukong, she had used her angelic powers to save Sun Wukong, but she had been killed by the rules. This had caused Sun Wukong to fall silent again before he turned into White God form and mastered the power of a god. In the power competition, Sun Wukong had mastered the Perfect Free Supreme Skill but had not mastered its true power. When he reached Dragon Ball Super II, he once again mastered the Perfect Free Supreme Skill and mastered the power of God to fight against Mo Luo. Sun Wukong was extremely powerful in his White God form. His half-step White God power surpassed Deep Blue's power (Deep Blue's power had reached the level of a God of Destruction). When his White God form entered its perfect state, Sun Wukong's power had reached an extreme level. His strength had already surpassed Virus. Virus could defeat the super god Sun Wukong even if he used 70% of his strength. Sun Wukong, who had super blue and 20 times the Realm King Fist, could match Virus with 70% of his strength. White God Sun Wukong's strength was already above Virus. When fighting Mo Luo, Sun Wukong in White God form made Mo Luo unable to even parry. Mo Luo's attacks could not even touch the corner of his clothes.
