Little Western Heaven.
Blue-gray and white, ice and snow covered the entire mountain.
Deep down in the valley, there was a particularly strange cave, with a lush patch of melon fields, growing exceptionally well.
A young novice monk was picking and choosing melons in the field, patting them on the left, patting them on the right, but he still hadn't found one to his liking.
Standing beside the melon field was a strange man wearing a bamboo hat. He was watching the novice monk choose melons and said: "Big Brother said, if there's a chance, let Sheng test him out."
The novice monk finally picked up a watermelon and flipped it over, smiling and saying: "This one is good, ripe but not quite ripe, the most flavorful. I've already looked at him for you, he's good."
The strange man said: "If I don't meet him with my own hands, I'll never feel at ease. I don't know how to explain it to Big Brother."
The novice monk used both hands and broke the watermelon in half: "You don't trust him, but I trust your Big Brother even more."
The strange man thought about it for a moment and said: "Big Brother keeps the thing personally, it's bound to be safe."
The novice monk chewed on the watermelon, noncommittally: "That thing, it tests the heart greatly. He's been bearing it alone for years, don't let it all go to waste."
The strange man quickly said: "So, if it can succeed this time, wouldn't it be a win-win situation?"
The novice monk stopped, looked up at the strange man, and the strange man quickly bowed his head and apologized.
The novice monk smiled again, waved his hand and said: "Go, go. Pass my disciple's test first, then we'll talk about everything else."

Flower Fruit Mountain, in front of the large rock at the peak, the old monkey sat there, looking into the distance, not knowing what he was watching.
A ray of light streaked across the sky, and a small figure soon landed in front of the old monkey.
It was a clumsy-looking pig demon, carrying a nine-toothed rake on his shoulder.
He said: "Old Monkey, you called me over. What do you want?"
The old monkey said: "He's about to go to Little Western Heaven. That Yellow Brow is different from the other demon kings. He's still young, so I hope you can go and help him, don't let him fall into the Yellow Brow's scheme."
"At this point, if you don't go, there's no one else to help him later."
Zhu Bajie snorted: "It's always the same thing. Asking me to help, they really think I'm useful."
The old monkey stroked the stone egg in front of him and said: "This time he's different, he actually has a chance."
"As long as he gathers the Six Roots, he can revive your senior brother, wouldn't you want that?"
Zhu Bajie was silent for a moment, then carried the nine-toothed rake and flew away: "I'll trust you one more time."
…………
Little Sumeru Mountain, the mountain was quite messy at this time. Lingji had returned to the mountain, but he couldn't forget it and was still filled with anger and hatred.
He not only lost his cultivation, but also lost his Flying Dragon Staff.
He was tricked by his own disciple and the Heaven's Mandate Person, he would definitely lose face among the immortals.
Such a loss, he had to recover as soon as possible.
At this time, a lotus platform arrived outside Little Sumeru Mountain, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva sitting on it spoke softly: "Lingji, calm down."
"Your affair is settled for now. Don't act rashly again in the future, everyone won't like seeing it."
"Besides, that Heaven's Mandate Person's external body is destroyed. Although he still knows some golden body and dharma image techniques, he's not stupid, but no one will help him in the future."
"The people behind him are not like the rat you raised, they won't cooperate with him. You don't need to mess things up."
"Don't make things ugly for everyone."
Lingji's face was ugly, but he didn't refute.
Guanyin floated away again.
This Heaven's Mandate Person, so unruly, was more like that guy back then. It was necessary to give him a lesson.

Zhong Yuan heard the Yellow Robe Gentleman's invitation and thought for a moment before refusing.
He had already seen the thing in the Yellow Robe Gentleman's hands and knew what was involved, but it wouldn't hurt to take another look.
Besides, it sounded like there was another way to open it.
The Yellow Robe Gentleman continued: "Before we begin, I want to spar with you, so we can get to know each other better, how about that?"
He really wanted to try it himself, to see what level the Heaven's Mandate Person was at now.
It was also a way to truly fulfill his Big Brother's instructions.
Zhong Yuan also didn't refuse. He saw a bit of the feeling of the White-clothed Scholar he encountered on Black Wind Mountain in this Yellow Robe Gentleman.
If he wasn't mistaken, they were all sent by their Big Brother, and their Big Brother, he could now basically confirm, must be Yang Jian.
Zhong Yuan was a bit worried about Yang Jian at first, but now he could accept it calmly.
Yang Jian also practiced the Eight Nine Profound Skill, as long as his cultivation was still there, he was bound to be someone worthy of trust.
This was the mutual trust and understanding between those who truly mastered the Eight Nine Profound Skill.
He believed that Yang Jian shouldn't be an enemy.
From this point of view, Sun Wukong was probably killed by Yang Jian according to his own plan.
After all, Sun Wukong was already wearing the Golden Hoop. Even if Yang Jian didn't take action, others would only cause trouble. He would probably still be unable to resist.
Zhong Yuan assumed a fighting stance and asked the Yellow Robe Gentleman to attack. In the end, he didn't use too much effort, and beat the Yellow Robe Gentleman in just a few blows, making him admit defeat.
Seeing this, the Yellow Robe Gentleman didn't hesitate, took Zhong Yuan to the other side of Yellow Wind Ridge.
He used the golden piece in his hand to open an old stone door, then flashed in.
Zhong Yuan followed him in.
Behind the stone door, he saw only a desolate scene from a distance, and he could see an ancient city in the distance.
"Today we don't see the ancient moon, this month once shone on the ancients."
"Look, whether it's the Golden Country or the Sunset Country, they no longer exist?"
"You must have heard the Yellow Wind Monster talk about the legends of this ancient country, and you must know a lot about it."
"Now, what do you think, where should we go to find some benefits."
It really seemed like he was inviting him to find treasure.
The Yellow Robe Gentleman was actually helpless. He had sneaked in by himself before, but didn't find anything special. He didn't know what his Big Brother wanted him to do.
But if he took the thing back directly, Big Brother wouldn't be satisfied.
So, he had to act a little deliberately, and could only directly invite the Heaven's Mandate Person to take a look.
The development on Yellow Wind Ridge didn't give him the chance to show up. The Heaven's Mandate Person suddenly broke into the Yellow Wind Array, and even fought with Lingji in the end. It was really unexpected.
Zhong Yuan didn't say anything. He looked up and suddenly saw yellow sand flying in front of him. A gust of wind and sand rose up, coming towards them from far to near.
Zhong Yuan felt a familiar power aura.
The next moment, the yellow sand hit his face, but the scene in front of him changed. The dilapidated ancient city became complete again. On a mountain path not far away, Tiger Vanguard was standing there alone.
This was, directly entering the past timeline?
Zhong Yuan felt that the place he was in was extremely real, not an illusion.
