Nuwa waved his hand, with a hint of doting helplessness in his tone, "Because you called me 'sister' so sweetly, I stayed. I don't want to move lately."

She paused and her eyes were gentle. "You just go, this small place will be the same when you leave, it will be the same when you return."

"Thank you sister."

Su Yang nodded, turned to look at Ruthless Great Emperor, a smile flashed across his eyes, "Let's go and see what Monkey is trapped in now."

Ruthless Great Emperor nodded silently, followed her as soon as his footsteps moved.

Empress Houtu stood there, watching the two people leaving, and sighed softly. She thought to herself, "This child can just bring a beauty along with him, but Zhenyuanzi is also brought along. With such an opportunity, why should we share a piece of the pie with him?"

Although she was puzzled, she still stepped forward to chase him.

As soon as they stepped out of the inn, Houtu waved his sleeves and cast a spell, and a hazy mist enveloped Su Yang and Zhenyuanzi, "When you go out to do business, it's better to hide your identity."

"That's right."

Su Yang smiled, his figure was like the wind, and instantly turned into a stream of light, heading straight towards Five Finger Mountain.

Beyond Primordial World, chaos is boundless.

The darkness is like the sea, surging endlessly. In the depths, storms roar, turbulence flows, and space debris collapses like dust.

In the deep silence, there was an emerald green Willow Tree floating quietly.

It has no roots and does not depend on the earth. It seems to be born from the void and towers over all things.

This tree is exactly the original body of Ancestor of Space Ancestor Yang Mei in the old Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods.

Suddenly, the willow branches trembled slightly, and a pair of eyes slowly opened.

"The last appearance made Pangu a little alert." Yang Mei whispered, half smiling but not smiling.

A force of probing swept through Chaos. He did not become angry, but instead raised the corners of his lips slightly.

At this moment, the void opened and a person walked out slowly.

Seeing the visitor, Yang Mei looked cold. "Finally can't sit still anymore?"

The man didn't answer, but looked into the distance, which was exactly the direction where Primordial World was.

After a long time, he spoke, his voice low and distant. "I have been wandering for too long, and after all, I miss that world a little bit."

"You can just go, there's nothing stopping you."

Ancestor Yang Mei sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "It's just that you have just stepped into the holy realm as Method of Severing the Three Corpses, and your foundation is not stable. If you suddenly appear Primordial World, there will be too much noise, which will inevitably lead to disputes."

"I understand."

The man whispered, his eyes calm, "I didn't come here to go back, I just wanted to take advantage of the crack in the void beside my ancestor to take a look at the world from a distance."

"It won't be long before you set foot there again."

Ancestor Yang Mei raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with deep eyes, "The most important thing right now is to control your own power. Don't let people just shake their heads and sigh when they mention that you are my successor."

"Dignified Space Demon God's disciples can teach you to such a level?" He snorted softly, "If word spreads around, I would find it shabby."

If anyone else heard this, they would probably be shocked out of their wits.

Saint, which was made by beheading three corpses, is considered to be the pinnacle among all Primordial Worlds, yet it is said to be unsatisfactory?

The one and only Three Corpses Sage has already merged with the way of heaven and became the incarnation of Pangu's Will, towering over all spirits.

But now, in the words of Yang Mei, such a state is not enough?

The man did not refute, but silently stared at the corner of the world reflected in the broken void.

The mountains and rivers are magnificent, the sea of clouds is rolling, and the vast land stretches endlessly.

He murmured in a low voice, "It's such a desirable place."

Dongsheng Shenzhou, deep in the peaks.

A highway leading to the south once ran through this place, but now it is cut off by a huge ridge that suddenly rises.

The mountains are steep and mist-shrouded, and no one can easily climb over them. Over time, the roads have become deserted and pedestrians have disappeared.

Only people from scattered villages nearby knew that there was a monster hiding under the mountain.

The demon had a loud mouth and a face full of fur, but he could speak human words. He often shouted that he was from Flower-Fruit Mountain, Great Sage Equal to Heaven Handsome Monkey King Sun Wukong. He was suppressed under this mountain because he rebelled against Heavenly Court and offended Buddha.

At first, the villagers were afraid of his dangerous appearance and avoided him. Later, when they saw that he could not move and his words showed loneliness, they gradually felt pity for him.

Occasionally, a shepherd boy would pass by and he would pick some wild fruits and put them next to the cracks in the rocks. He would shout with a smile, "Great Sage, have something to eat!"

But they have no idea that the world in this land has long been distorted and chaotic.

Affected by the aftermath of Saint's mana, one day in the mountains lasted only a moment Outside World.

The speed of passage here is more than twenty times faster than outside.

Outside World Just over a month has passed, and more than fifty years have passed quietly in the mountains.

The young man who led the cows and ran through the mountains and fields back then has now grown a gray beard and his forehead is full of traces of time.

Half a century passed like water, and Sun Wukong had been trapped in this Five Finger Mountain for fifty years. The weak hope in his heart had long been worn away by time. He knew very well that if the destined opportunity had not come, he would probably be buried under this rock forever.

On the top of the mountain, a golden Sanskrit text shines brightly, which is a sealing spell left by a Buddhist master. Because of this mantra, even if his muscles and bones are not damaged and his magic power is still there, he cannot escape even half a point.

This mountain, in its heyday, could be shattered into dust with just one stick.

But now, it is no longer just a mountain, but has become a symbol of the power of Buddhism. Rather than Five Finger Mountain suppressing his body, it is better to say that the golden scripture locked his destiny.

He had repeatedly begged the shepherd boys passing by Foot of the Mountain to climb to the top and try to erase the runes.

But every time he responded to him, it was the same answer. The mantra hanging high in the clouds seemed to be coexisting with the heaven and earth, no matter how mortals touched it, it would not move at all.

After listening, Sun Wukong could only look up at the sky, with a bitter taste in his throat.

In his heart, he was the one who was humiliated, so why did he sin? Why was he the one who received the punishment?

"God, why are you so partial? Tathagata! If one day This Old Sun sees the light of day again, I will definitely break through the door of your Spirit Mountain palace and make you taste this boundless suffering!"

But the sky was silent, there was no thunder, and there was no response, as if this roar had never sounded in the world.

As the days passed, he could only look at the peach tree next to him day after day. The flowers bloomed in spring and the fruits fell in autumn. Year after year, the cycle continued.

He has lost count of how many times the tree has bloomed and how many times it has produced fruit.

On this day, Chen Guang was hazy, and drizzle fell silently.

Water droplets dripped down the ends of his hair. He reluctantly moved his shoulders and used the leaves in front of him to block some of the rain.

At this moment, three figures came out of the rain and stopped at Foot of the Mountain.

The three of them looked at the embarrassed Great Sage Equal to Heaven in front of them, with unconcealable smiles on their faces.

I remember the time when I made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace and shook the three realms, Jade Emperor was eclipsed.

What now? The dignified Handsome Monkey King is actually huddled between the cracks in the rocks, trying his best to protect a leaf from the rain.

Flower-Fruit Mountain's reputation and Great Sage Equal to Heaven's pride are all sinking into the mud at this moment.

"Haha."

Su Yang chuckled, shook his head, and walked slowly towards the figure that was pressed under the mountain.

Five Finger Mountain Below, the wind and sand are blowing lightly.

Although Sun Wukong was pressed under the mountain, his six senses were not damaged and his ears were still sharp. Suddenly he heard a sneer that broke the silence. He was slightly startled, and then he looked up and saw Su Yang standing not far away with an indifferent gaze.

"Are you the one standing in the High Heaven Hall that day?"

Monkey narrowed his eyes and sounded wary, "What are you doing here? Are you here just to see me make a fool of myself?"

"Not that interested."
