Black Myth: You and I are both destined

Chapter 18: Eastern Foothills of Taihang Mountains

As the saying goes, autumn is like a tiger. The scorching sun shines on the dry earth, and blue smoke rises. In the morning, I am sweating like rain, and my muscles are sore. I have already suffered from heatstroke.

He swung the staff and hit it hard on the ground, making a dull sound!

"Guanyin! Come out quickly, Guanyin!"

In a moment, Guanyin came flying down riding on a fire lotus.

"Heaven's Destiny... Holy Monk, do you think that you will become Jin Chanzi after you transform into Tang Sanzang's appearance?"

"Am I not?"

"This staff is in my hand, the cassock is on my body, and the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has given me a certificate of clearance. You, the Bodhisattva, have said in front of all living beings in the world that I am a holy monk of ten generations, so of course I am the one who is seeking the scriptures."

"Don't act so sophisticated in front of me in the future. Who is the Golden Cicada? Whoever seeks the scriptures is the Golden Cicada. It's fine to fool others, but are you trying to fool me?"

Guanyin flew over from afar, and was retorted three times after just saying one sentence. However, she couldn't touch the other party, so she had to shut her mouth and get angry secretly!

"Send me to Liangjie Mountain on the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain."

"You? Tianming...how did you know this place?"

At the foot of the eastern side of the Taihang Mountains there is a Liangjie Mountain. The peaks are towering into the clouds and the mountain is steep, as if the hand of God had torn the earth apart, forming five towering stone pillars pointing straight to the sky.

Another name for this Shenzuo Mountain is Wuzhi Mountain.

There was another wave of waves in Guanyin's heart.

He clearly didn't tell Tianming about the Five Elements Mountain, so how did he know?

"Send it or not?"

"I'll be bored and lonely when I go to the West alone. I can always find someone to chat with."

"I'm not tight-lipped!"

Tianming patted the cloth bag around his waist as he spoke, and the three hoops inside jingled when they collided with each other!

"Humph!"

If looks could kill, Tianming would have been pierced through by Guanyin's gaze thousands of times.

He moved a little closer to the lotus to make room for an empty spot, and motioned Tianming to come up.

On the way to Wuzhi Mountain, Tianming observed carefully and found that there were indeed fireworks growing on the soles of the other party's feet.

"Guanyin, you don't have to stand so far to the side. Are you afraid of me now?"

Guanyin closed her eyes and silently recited Buddhist teachings, neither listening nor asking.

"Oh, I see. You are afraid of this 'Five-Colored Fairy Clothes' I am wearing, right?"

Upon hearing these words, Guanyin's body trembled noticeably, and the speed of the flying lotus also increased a bit, and it arrived at the foot of the Five Finger Mountain in a flash.

The sun shines through the clouds onto the mountains. At dawn, I can see the towering mountains and feel deeply moved.

He seemed to be able to feel the suffering and struggle of the creature under the mountain, as well as its desire for freedom.

After a brief moment of distraction, Tianming's thoughts returned to reality.

There was no "Six-Character Mantra" as imagined on the Five Finger Mountain, and there were no living creatures being suppressed at the foot of the mountain.

"There is no one you are looking for in Wuxing Mountain."

"Do you know who I came to Wuzhi Mountain to find?"

Tianming has doubted the Guanyin in front of him more than once. The other party seems to know something that has not happened yet and is a prophet!

"He is not in the Five Elements Mountain. No one can find him."

Guanyin deliberately avoided the three words "Sun Wukong", and even when she used the word "he" instead, there was still uncontrollable anger and fear in her eyes when she said it!

"I know. I'm just stopping by to take a look. My goal is at the pass ahead."

When Guanyin heard "I know", her eyelids twitched slightly.

He moved closer to Tianming and sniffed hard.

"I didn't have it before, but I did after I ate Tang Monk. Saint Monk, who do you belong to?"

Tianming was not clear about this matter. Rather than believing that the time travel was an accident, it seemed more like the work of some powerful person.

He found something strange. Guanyin always emphasized that it was the "Five Elements Mountain" but not the "Five Fingers Mountain". Although it was almost the same, it was still a bit weird.

Tianming didn't answer.

He has his own things to do.

The Five Fingers Mountain was just as he had imagined. Tianming used his Seventy-Two Transformations to change his Buddhist robes into a grey robe and his staff into a wooden staff, making him look like a woodcutter.

In this disguise, he arrived at the pass leading out of Wuzhi Mountain.

The sunlight shines through the treetops, dappling onto the ground. In this tranquil atmosphere, a deafening tiger roar suddenly comes, breaking the peace in the forest.

A huge tiger with hanging eyes and white forehead slowly walked out from the depths of the dense forest. There was a fierce light flashing in its eyes, and the white spots on its forehead were particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

The tiger has a huge body, with smooth and powerful muscle lines. It looks majestic with every step it takes. Its teeth are as sharp as knives, and its claws are sharp and powerful, which can easily tear any prey apart.

When it saw that the "two-legged beast" in front of it did not dodge or evade, as if challenging its prestige, the tiger became more and more manic, with greedy and fierce light in its eyes!

Then the tiger suddenly exerted its strength, pounced towards Tianming and was about to tear him to pieces.

The next moment, something incredible happened. Tianming held down the tiger with one hand and easily subdued it with one hand!

The tiger is the king of beasts. Although it is arrogant, it is also smart. It became scared in an instant, took a few steps back, and then ran away!

But after running a few steps, he found Tianming appeared in front of his escape path, blocking him.

The tiger turned around and continued to flee, but the result was the same every time. Finally, it was so scared that it clung to the edge of a big tree trunk, sticking out its barbed tongue to show its surrender.

Tianming was in a good mood. When he got the attribute panel, he felt that his physical fitness was far stronger than that of ordinary people and had exceeded the scope of human beings.

After trying it today, Tianming found that his speed and strength were far superior to that of a tiger. He felt that the first step in his plan was to collect the treasure.

He turned and walked away, leaving the frightened tiger behind.

In the original novel, Sun Wukong beat the tiger to death with a stick and made clothes from its skin, but clothes made of animal skin were neither good-looking nor breathable, and Tianming did not have this habit.

His Guanyin called over and told him to take her to the second place.

Guanyin has gotten used to it by now. She feels annoyed after doing it once, but becomes familiar with it after doing it many times.

"Black Wind Mountain, right? I'll take you there right away."

"Wait, the monsters in Black Wind Mountain are quite powerful. Send me to a weaker place first."

Tianming pointed to the west and said, "I plan to go to Lion Camel Ridge first."

"Okay, then let's go to Lion Camel first..." Guanyin frowned!

"Heaven... Holy Monk, where are you talking about?"

"Don't you know about Lion Camel Ridge? It's right at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. You just finished the Ghost Festival at Lingshan Mountain. How could you forget it so quickly?"

Tianming and Guanyin never had good things to say to each other, and the other party was so angry that he directly summoned a lotus and flew to the west with him on the spot.

Guanyin was secretly delighted. If one ranked the most terrifying places in the world, Lion Camel Ridge would definitely be in the top three from any perspective.

The phrase "mountains of corpses and seas of blood" is a description in other places, but it is a record in Lion Camel Ridge.

The existence of that place itself is a contempt and blasphemy to life!

Although he was the one who sent the man of destiny, even the Buddha could not say anything if he died there. The third of the three demons in Lion Camel Ridge, the Golden-winged Peng Demon King, was the Buddha's uncle. If he ate the man of destiny, who would dare to stop him?
