Fiery clouds burned towards the western horizon.

This day, the dusk seemed exceptionally long.

Ao Luan stood in Wanling Hall, quietly observing the earth, watching the chaotic city below.

Buddha used Supreme Divine Power to reveal the truth to all beings, its arrival so sudden that the entire Three Realms fell into disarray.

"Fairy."

Water Virtues Star Monarch appeared behind Ao Luan.

"Have you found your brother?"

Ao Luan asked.

"No."

Water Virtues Star Monarch shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Are we all false beings?"

"Silence."

Ao Luan coldly laughed: "If we were false beings, how could you be standing here?"

Water Virtues Star Monarch looked disheartened.

From afar, Immortal Zhenyuan, hearing these words, could not help but sigh.

The shocking news shook many Immortals, but actually, Ao Luan was the most devastated.

She liked Sun Wukong so much, yet now, someone told her that her feelings were merely a reflection copied from another Ao Luan.

The impact on her was greater than on anyone else.

Yet, as a leader, she could not show even a hint of wavering.

"She really is strong!"

Immortal Zhenyuan thought to himself.

In the Northern snowfields of the Eastern Continent, a figure walked through the bitter cold winds, swayed, and then fell to the ground.

The bone-chilling cold seeped in from the snow behind him; in Sun Wukong's eyes, looking up at the sky, it seemed he could see the chaos everywhere.

The Three Realms were already in disarray.

But his judgment was not as decisive as usual, uncertain of what to do.

"What are you doing?"

Someone asked.

Sun Wukong slightly shifted his gaze and saw Little Phoenix appear on his right.

"Great King, come back with me."

Little Phoenix said: "Ao Luan sister has sent people looking everywhere for you!"

Sun Wukong looked at her, suddenly understanding many things.

"Who are you?"

He asked.

Little Phoenix was startled: "I'm Little Phoenix!"

"No... You are not just Little Phoenix."

Sun Wukong said.

She is Little Phoenix, but she is more than just Little Phoenix.

He concealed all his aura, and no one could find him, except for her.

"I read in a Heavenly Book that many great calamities ago, Great Divine Power created an object called Creation."

Sun Wukong said: "At that time, Heavenly Venerate used this object to evolve the Three Realms, only to never wake from sleep and perished in the great calamity."

He looked at Little Phoenix: "It's you, isn't it?"

Little Phoenix suddenly became silent.

Then, she softly smiled: "When did you realize?"

"Just now."

Sun Wukong replied.

Though he only just realized, since meeting her, Little Phoenix had always given him a peculiar feeling.

On the surface, she seemed like a little girl, but occasionally, the traits she exhibited were not like those of a little girl.

Especially when teaching her, Sun Wukong found she learned exceptionally quickly, as if she already knew many things ahead of time.

"What is your real name?"

Sun Wukong asked: "Why did you approach me?"

He now understood, Little Phoenix was real, but merely an identity chosen by this Heavenly Venerate in this world to approach him.

"It's been too long, I've forgotten what I was called."

Little Phoenix walked over to Sun Wukong, saying: "You can call me Ghost."

She crouched down, quietly looking at Sun Wukong.

"You and I are the same."

Little Phoenix said: "You can already hear the sounds of the Three Realms' destruction."

"…Yes."

Sun Wukong could hear the sound of gears gradually falling apart in his ears.

The Heavenly Book has been deducing for two hundred years; its power is rapidly diminishing, and soon—this Three Realms will be destroyed.

"You now have three choices."

The little phoenix spoke, "One is to leave this place, Buddha's Pure Land is not as powerful as he imagined, the Three Realms will still be destroyed."

"The first choice is to cooperate with the Buddha; he is willing to violate the precept of greed and transform you, using your power to complete the ultimate Pure Land, to perpetuate its existence."

Sun Wukong's eyes flashed with light: "Is that possible?"

"Of course it is possible."

The little Phoenix smiled and said, "You are the master of Creation; as long as you stay and shape a self-sustaining Pure Land, it's entirely possible."

Sun Wukong fell silent for a moment.

"What is the third choice?"

"The third one..."

The little Phoenix pointed at herself: "Cooperate with me."

"The Buddha wants you to complete the Pure Land, but the Pure Land is really not lovely at all."

She stood up.

"We are companions; whatever world you want, I can help you create it; there is nothing the two of us can't do."

The little Phoenix reached out to Sun Wukong, her eyes glowing, looking at him with anticipation.

"I have experience; join me, and I will help you build the perfect Wanling Country."

Sun Wukong looked at her hand, and then he understood everything.

"The previous Heavenly Venerate..."

He brushed away the little Phoenix's hand and stood up alone: "She abandoned the people waiting for her outside and chose a false world."

The little Phoenix's smile vanished.

"This Three Realms are false; even if I can save it temporarily, it cannot last long."

Sun Wukong continued: "You are the proof."

The little Phoenix, calling herself a ghost, appearing in this Three Realms, signifies that the Three Realms she created in the past have already been destroyed.

The worlds created by Creation cannot continue indefinitely.

"So what?"

The little Phoenix's face darkened: "I admit it eventually disappeared, but its existence lasted longer than a major calamity outside, and my subjects ultimately passed away peacefully, happier than those outside."

Sun Wukong felt somewhat sad.

"Join hands with me, in this world of Creation, we can keep this Three Realms for a long time."

The little Phoenix said, "Even if it eventually disappears, the two of us can still survive."

"Don't you wish to see the future world?"

The little Phoenix asked: "The two of us stay here, not fearing natural disasters or major calamities, having the opportunity to go out in the future and appear in the world you hope for; isn't that great?"

Sun Wukong shook his head and extended his hand, on which the Wordless Heavenly Scripture emerged.

"Creation!"

The little Phoenix's pupils tightened: "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going home."

Sun Wukong responded, and when his resolve was set, the Heavenly Book responded to him.

"You, you want to abandon this place!"

The little Phoenix couldn't help but take a step back.

"To save the outside world, are you willing to abandon this place?"

She shouted: "You've been here for two hundred years; does it really not compare to a few decades outside?"

"Even so."

Sun Wukong stroked the Heavenly Book, and it seemed to rejoice in his will.

The power of this Heavenly Book is unparalleled, unmatched in the world; it is the true Creator.

Those Great Divine Powers succeeded; they created the treasure of deducing and evolving the Three Realms, but it's too perfect, so perfect that the Three Realms it created are truly existent.

Perfection is the biggest flaw of the Heavenly Book.

"You have already failed."

Sun Wukong looked at the little Phoenix.

She lost herself in the Heavenly Book, but he will not.

Things that should shatter naturally should shatter.

This is why the Heavenly Book abandoned the little Phoenix and chose him.

The Heavenly Book doesn't need a slave!

Sun Wukong soared into the air.

"I will prove it to you."

Flames burned in his eyes: "There is a fourth way."

The Heavenly Book trembled in his hand; the Three Realms crumbled faster under his will.

The little Phoenix looked up at Sun Wukong.

That burning figure, as if it were the true posture of the master of Creation.

In this dark and profound place of the end, there still shines a glimmer of hope.
