Mo Wenjie, together with Huang Linger, Jiang Yuru, Xiao Ayiwen, Ding Yan, Tuo Yaoying, Qin Xiaodie, Cao Chunling and the mysterious and beautiful Golden Silkworm Goddess, embarked on a journey filled with unknown challenges. Despite the rough path ahead with thorns and obstacles in every corner, they carried an unquenchable flame in their hearts, inspiring each other to forge ahead without fear.
Each of these women possesses unique qualities: some are clever and agile, others are gentle and charming, some are brave without fear, and others are witful beyond compare. However, despite their diverse personalities, at this moment they all unite tightly together, confronting the impending hardships and perils as one.
As the core figure among the group, Mo Wenjie has a resolute gaze and steady steps, always leading the way for everyone. Huang Linger, with her keen intuition and excellent ability to adapt, repeatedly helps the team navigate dangers. Jiang Yuru encourages everyone with her gentle words, helping them to rejuvenate when they are weary. Xiao Ayiwen leverages her advantage of calm thinking to strategize for the team.
Ding Yan is agile and always leads the way in the front, risking her life to explore the path. Tuo Yaoying has strong martial arts skills, serving as a reliable shield for everyone's safety. Qin Xiaodie is good at observing details and can always find clues that others overlook. Cao Chunling has a clever and handy mind, capable of solving various daily problems creatively. Moreover, the mysterious and beautiful Golden Silkworm Goddess is a master of unique skills, whose supernatural powers often surprise everyone in crucial moments.
Throughout their journey, they encountered fierce storms, perilous valleys, ferocious beasts and other trials. However, they never hesitated or backed down even for a single step. On the contrary, every setback only made them stronger and more closely united. For they well understood that only by pressing forward courageously could they overcome all challenges and achieve their cherished goals.
As they crossed an ancient forest, a dense mist enveloped them. Amidst the mist, a melodious flute music could be faintly heard. Mo Wenjie became alert and warned everyone to be careful. The Golden Silkworm Goddess cast a spell to dispel the mist, only to find that the mist seemed to possess magical powers and was difficult to dissipate.
At that moment, a group of people dressed in bizarre attire approached them slowly. The leader claimed to be the guardian of the Mists Tribe and declared that this forest was a sacred place, not to be violated by outsiders. Mo Wenjie stepped forward with sincerity, explaining their intention to merely pass through on their way to the place for cultivation. The guardians remained unmoved by her explanation.
At this moment, Qin Xiaodie noticed ancient runes carved on a nearby tree, which were the same as those she had seen at an ancient site. She whispered to Xiao Ayiwen, who then came up with a plan. She stepped forward and revealed the secret of the runes, stating that perhaps this place held great significance in connection with the outside world. Upon hearing this, the guardians were greatly startled and, after some internal deliberation, decided to let these resolute women pass through.
Huang Linger, Jiang Yuru, and Xiao Ayiwen walked side by side, beaming with ease on their faces. Behind them, several beautiful women including Ding Yan, Tuo Yaoying, Qin Xiaodie, and Cao Chunling followed closely, releasing a sigh of relief as they caught their breath. The woman called the Golden Silkworm Goddess walked calmly in the rear of the group, her breathtaking beauty shining even more brightly in the sunlight.
The group had just overcome a tough ordeal, and for now, they had temporarily escaped from the crisis. They could take a moment to relax their tense nerves. However, they were all well aware that the path ahead was still filled with unknowns and challenges. But at this moment, determination shone in the eyes of everyone present because they trusted each other and held great confidence in their future.
A gentle breeze caressed their hair, bringing a thread of coolness. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating patchwork patterns of light and shadow on the ground. The surrounding scenery was breathtaking, with green mountains and clear waters reflecting each other in a beautiful interplay, as if an idyllic painting unfolded before their eyes. Yet, these beautiful sights did not distract them; instead, they only served to ignite their motivation to press forward.
"Sisters, we need to step up our efforts!" Huang Linger said in a soft, clear voice like a bell. The others nodded in agreement, indicating their support. So, this team of numerous beautiful women once again strode forward along the winding path, moving steadily toward their destination.
Although there were still many difficulties waiting for them to overcome ahead, Mo Wenjie and Huang Linger, Jiang Yuru, Xiao Ayiwen, Ding Yan, Tuo Yaoying, Qin Xiaodie, Cao Chunling, and the Golden Silkworm Goddess had already prepared thoroughly and were determined to face all challenges.
As they walked, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently, and a massive crack spread out ahead. Mo Wenjie calmed down first, observing the depths of the crack closely, sensing an evil aura surging.
The Golden Silkworm Goddess made a hand gesture, releasing a beam of golden light towards the crack. However, it was devoured by the darkness. Everyone realized that this danger was far from ordinary.
At this moment, Mo Wenjie recalled the records from ancient books. This was the sealed location of the Demon Array, and it was definitely someone who deliberately damaged it that caused it to loosen.
Tuo Yaoying tightened her grip on her weapon and was eager to charge forward, but Mo Wenjie reached out to stop her. "Do not act rashly. We must first find the core of the array."
Jiang Yuru closed her eyes and felt the flow of the air, pointing to a large stone on the left side, "Over there, the atmosphere is most abnormal."
Together, the group worked hard to move the large stone. Sure enough, a darkly glowing demon crystal was found below. Mo Wenjie took out her treasure and chanted an incantation, slowly enveloping the demon crystal with it. As the light shone brightly, the ground gradually returned to calmness.
"Thank goodness we worked together," Huang Linger gently patted her chest, letting out a long sigh of relief. A look of contentment spread across her beautiful face as she smiled warmly. The people surrounding her also broke into understanding smiles. Though they came from different places and had their own unique personalities and backgrounds, at this moment, their hearts were tightly bound together.
The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting patches of light and shadow on the group. A gentle breeze brought a sense of coolness and contentment. After a brief rest, they once again set off on their journey to their destination. Although the road ahead was still full of unknowns, no one knew what kind of difficult challenges they might face, everyone's eyes shone with determination.
Because they well understood that as long as they remained united, no matter what difficulties and setbacks lay ahead, they would have nothing to fear. This conviction shone like a burning torch, illuminating the path forward and providing them with boundless courage and strength. Therefore, this small group of women moved forward with their steps in perfect unison, leaving one step after another toward the distant horizon……
Mo Wenjie, Huang Linger, Jiang Yuru, Xiao Ayiwen, Ding Yan, Tuo Yaoying, Qin Xiaodie, Cao Chunling, and the Golden Silkworm Goddess continued their exploration when they were suddenly overwhelmed by a powerful pressure that made it difficult to breathe. Mo Wenjie shouted in alarm, "Bad news! A formidable enemy is approaching!"
Mo Wenjie endured the pressure and vigilantly surveyed her surroundings. She saw a black-cloaked figure slowly appear in the sky, surrounded by black flames. "You have disrupted my plan, and all of you will die today." The black-robed man spoke in a cold voice. Mo Wenjie recognized him as Heishàijun, a wandering magician of the demonic path.
The Golden Silkworm Goddess struck first, sending out countless golden threads to ensnare Heishajun. Heishajun snorted coldly, waving his magical staff, and the threads were severed.
The women did not lose heart. Xiao Ayiwen commanded them to change formations. Ding Yan and Tuo Yaoying attacked Heishajun from both sides, but they were repelled by the dark black shield he released. Jiang Yuru focused her spiritual energy into Mo Wenjie's body, and Mo Wenjie closed his hands in a posture of prayer, uttering incantations as a bright light shot towards Heishajun. Heishajun dodged the light and looked somewhat disheveled.
Just as Heishajun was enraged, Qin Xiaodie noticed a faint glow emanating from his back, like an energy source. Mo Wenjie understood instantly and pretended to launch a direct attack to draw Heishajun's attention. Taking advantage of the moment, Qin Xiaodie threw out a spiritual rope, hitting the glowing spot directly. By the time Heishajun realized what was happening, it was too late. After being struck, his power was greatly reduced, and the pressure disappeared. He glared at the group with intense hatred before dissipating into black smoke and fleeing. The group breathed a sigh of relief and continued to march firmly towards their destination.
Heishajun, there was a divine being who descended upon the house of the commoner Zhang Shouzhen in Fengxiang Prefecture, claiming to be the assistant of the Xuantian Great Saint and the Emperor of Jade. His voice was like that of an infant, clear and distinct. The people from near and far came to pray and worship him in great numbers. The great ancestor summoned him to the capital and held a sacrifice in the palace. The divine being said, "The palaces in heaven are completed, the jade lock is opened, on the 20th day of the tenth lunar month, Your Majesty should return to heaven." The great ancestor earnestly prayed, "I am not afraid of death, but I regret that You (the region of You) and Bei have not been unified. I beg for a few more years, waiting until the two states are conquered, it will not be too late." The divine being replied, "Prince Jin has a kind heart, and fate belongs to him. Your Majesty in heaven also has his own position." At that time, Emperor Taizong Wang Jin served as the Prefect of Kaifeng. The great ancestor ordered him to be detained in the Left Army; without evidence he was accused of guilt. Later, events confirmed the divine prediction. Emperor Taizong ascended the throne. He promoted Zhang Shouzhen to a Taoist priest and still bestowed upon him a purple robe. Then they built a temple in Taiping Town of Zhouzi County; the order of gods' positions and the scale of buildings were all imparted by God. He still respected Heishajun as Yusheng (helper). During Emperor Renzong's reign, Zhang Shouzhen was posthumously honored as Chuanxin Dafashi (True Transmission Great Monk).
Heishajun's face darkened as he muttered to himself, "I never expected that this intercept would end in failure. I wonder if the Queen Mother will be angry with me for this. If she imposes punishment upon me, I truly don't know what to do!" As he thought about it more and more, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, making him feel even more uneasy.
After all, the Queen Mother held a supreme position in heaven, and her will was unquestionable. Heishajun realized that he had failed in his mission this time and it would be difficult to explain. If the Queen Mother were to become enraged and impose severe punishment, the consequences would be unimaginable. Thinking about this, Heishajun shivered involuntarily and made a secret vow to himself that he would make up for his mistake next time and never let it happen again.
Heishajun decided to find a place to retreat and cultivate in seclusion, enhancing his power to better execute the Queen Mother's next task. He found a hidden cave and laid down layer upon layer of restrictions.
As Mo Wenjie and the others continued their journey, they felt as though they were being watched from the shadows. It turned out that Heishajun had sent a small magical creature to follow them, in order to gather information about their route and purpose, so that he could report back to the Queen Mother and thus alleviate his own wrongdoings.
The group sensed something amiss, and Jin Can Sanyou discreetly released several spirit moths to investigate. They quickly discovered the small demon, but Mo Wenjie didn't want to cause any trouble, so he simply warned it to leave. The small demon fled in shame.
Upon learning that his surveillance had failed, Heishajun was feeling dejected when he received a message from the Queen Mother. Trembling with fear, he went to pay his respects. To his surprise, the Queen Mother did not rebuke him excessively, but simply said that she would give him one more chance to secretly assist Mo Wenjie and others in completing their mission. She warned that if there were any more failures, she would not spare him. Overjoyed at this unexpected turn of events, Heishajun hurriedly thanked her and then set out to track down Mo Wenjie and the others.
