Sword of the Nine Heavens, the Fall of the Gods

Chengfeng widened his eyes and carefully searched every corner in his sight.

But apart from the clouds and mist in the sky, there was no one to be seen.

The sound seemed to come from all directions, and it also seemed to come from deep in the heart, making it impossible to determine its true source.

Mou Zi also widened his eyes in surprise and looked up at the sky, trying to find the source of the sound in the fog.

However, like Chengfeng, he could only see a hazy cloud and could not catch any figure.

Mou Zi turned to look at Cheng Feng, a questioning look in his eyes.

Chengfeng just shook his head helplessly, his face full of confusion, and he was also unable to determine the source of the sound.

The two looked at each other and saw the same confusion and uneasiness in each other's eyes.

"I have heard your voices. I will deal with this matter after I have dealt with the bug!"

The old voice echoed in the wind again, but there was still no one around.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The only sounds around were the wind blowing and the two people's nervous breathing.

After a while, the sound disappeared and Chengfeng recovered from his shock.

"Master, what exactly is this place? Why are there so many strange things happening?"

"This place is the foothills of the Five Elements Mountains."

Mou Zi also regained his composure and pointed with his finger at the mountain in front of him with a hazy outline, with a solemn expression.

"The mountain in front is the Five Elements Mountain that suppressed the Monkey King Sun Wukong."

"Is this the Five Elements Mountain?"

Chengfeng was surprised. He didn't expect that he got lost and came to such a mysterious place.

"Correct!"

Mouzi nodded gently, "The Five Elements Mountain is deserted and uninhabited. It fell from nowhere and suppressed Sun Wukong. The Buddha ordered people to guard the mountain. Until now, it has been passed down to me for several generations."

"I see!"

Chengfeng nodded, looking deeply at the looming mountain in the distance, and an inexplicable heaviness surged in his heart.

The setting sun is as red as blood, and a tranquil sea of clouds is slowly surging, like the gentlest brushstrokes between heaven and earth.

Suddenly, a slender figure emerged from the depths of the clouds, like the light of the first light of dawn, and the figure of the dragon girl floated over.

She walked lightly and silently towards Zhao Yun who was recuperating.

"Since you and Chengfeng are friends, I can let you go. Tell your master not to cause trouble again in the future."

The Dragon Girl's voice was filled with unquestionable determination, but also revealed a hint of imperceptible compassion.

Although Zhao Yun still had doubts in his heart, at this moment, he had no choice but to surrender.

"Dear Dragon Fairy, I, Zhao Yun, feel honored to see you today. I will definitely keep your words in mind."

The dragon girl nodded slightly and took out a crystal clear vial from her wide sleeves, which contained a few pills emitting a faint fragrance.

"Since you have realized your mistake, I will not make it difficult for you. Take this pill to heal your injury."

Zhao Yun took the pill respectfully and bowed deeply.

The pill melts in the mouth, turning into a warm stream that flows through every inch of skin and every meridian.

The pain gradually dissipated, and strength quietly revived in the body.

Zhao Yun bowed to the Dragon Girl again, his eyes full of respect and gratitude.

The Dragon Girl did not look at him again, but turned her gaze to the monk Mou Zi in the prison car, and gently swung the sword in her hand.

The prison van shattered, the chains broke and fell into the dust.

Master Mou Zi walked out of the cage. Although his face was old, the light in his eyes remained.

"Amitabha! I am sorry to trouble you again." Monk Mou Zi bowed deeply to the Dragon Girl.

The dragon girl smiled calmly and retracted her sword. Her movements were as smooth as flowing water, and her elegance revealed an unquestionable power.

The breeze blew gently, and her skirt swayed in the wind, rippling like water waves, and a feeling of being otherworldly arose spontaneously.

At this moment, she turned around and looked at Chengfeng with a complicated look in her eyes.

"Chengfeng, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"I?"

Faced with the sudden question from this elegant fairy, Chengfeng had many questions in his mind, but he couldn't remember anything for a moment.

"Fairy, I..."

Chengfeng hesitated, as if he didn't know where to start.

Finally, he took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

"Fairy, if you hadn't come to my rescue today, General Zhao Yun and I would have been hard-pressed to escape the clutches of the Beng Ten. I will always remember your kindness."

"Okay! You must remember what you said today, and repay me for this favor in the future."

There was a hint of smile in the Dragon Girl's voice, a smile that was both tolerant and mysterious, making it hard to understand.

Chengfeng nodded quickly and said "Yes!"

Although he made a verbal promise, Chengfeng looked worried and felt a little anxious inside.

Facing this almighty deity, I don’t know how I can ever repay her?

"Pfft!"

The dragon girl chuckled and naturally saw Chengfeng's embarrassment at the moment.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, just leave now. Otherwise, if that Beng Shi wants to come back, you'll be in big trouble."

Chengfeng looked embarrassed, nodded quickly, and walked to Zhao Yun's side.

Zhao Yun was tidying up his warhorse at this time, and Chengfeng asked with concern: "Brother, how are you injured?"

After taking the pills given by the Dragon Girl, Zhao Yun was no longer harmed and he smiled.

"Little brother, I'm fine. Although you and I are on different paths, I can still give you a ride and show you the way."

Chengfeng did not refuse. The things here were not something he could control.

Since he hasn't done his job well, the mysterious Monkey King can only leave it to fate.

Chengfeng sat on Zhao Yun's big white horse, bowed to the Dragon Girl standing with the sword and Mou Zi beside her, and said, "Goodbye!"

Zhao Yun turned his horse around, and the two figures gradually disappeared into the twilight.

Only a series of melodious horse hoof sounds are left, echoing in this mysterious canyon.

……

At the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, the sunset is like blood.

The afterglow of the setting sun gently caresses a lonely protruding rock, and also comforts a hero forgotten by time.

The Monkey King, once the king, now lowered his proud head and lay quietly on the protruding rock, as if he had merged into one with the thousand-year-old rock.

The five peaks of the Five Elements Mountain stand like the five fingers of heaven and earth, and each peak contains the mystery of the five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland. But beneath this fairyland, there is a heart full of loneliness and despair.

The Monkey King's golden hair sparkles in the afterglow of the setting sun, quietly telling of his past splendor and glory.

At this moment, he could already stretch out his two furry palms and feel the breeze and warmth from the outside world.

A trace of relief surged in the Monkey King's heart, but it was quickly overwhelmed by endless despair.

Although his hands could reach out of the cave, his body was still trapped in this dark cave and he could not escape.

The arms covered with moss are traces left by time and are also witnesses of endless loneliness.

The Monkey King howled to the sky, his voice filled with grief, anger and unwillingness.

"Tathagata, how long are you going to keep me imprisoned? Isn't more than two hundred years enough?"
