"We, the Cloud Riders, are like clouds obscuring the sky, protecting the immortal vessel!"

Jing Yuan pointed the array blade in his hand at Jing Liu, his eyes gradually becoming firm.

Jing Liu stared at Jing Yuan with bloodshot eyes and an expressionless face. Then, in a flash, he appeared in front of Jing Yuan at an extremely fast speed.

The blade, made entirely of ice, was aimed directly at Jing Yuan's vitals.

Jing Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he quickly raised the array blade in his hand to fight back.

In just a few seconds, Jingliu unleashed dozens of sword strikes at Jingyuan.

The chilling sword aura caused the earth to freeze, and a cold aura spread in all directions.

With beads of sweat on his face, Jing Yuan raised his array blade and gritted his teeth as he fought against Jing Liu.

The swordsman Kagami before him gradually overlapped with the Kagami he remembered.

[Datalia: I don't know if it's just my imagination, but General Jingyuan seems to be having a hard time?]

[Ying: Judging from the situation, it seems that's indeed the case. Could it be that Jingyuan is weaker than Jingliu now?]

Wait, could the phantom image appearing beside General Jingyuan be a scene from his mind right now?

[Naxida: Just as Danheng thought of Miss Jizi and Miss Sanyueqi when he confronted Danfeng in his sea of ​​consciousness, General Jingyuan is probably feeling the same way now.]

………………

Jingyuan and Jingliu faced off with swords on the battlefield, their figures flashing across the battlefield.

At the same time, the phantom that reappeared on Yu Jingyuan's body rose into the air, gradually producing sounds and clear images.

Scenes of Jingyuan receiving instruction from Jingliu flashed by rapidly, eventually settling on one point.

"Master, they're in trouble."

The slightly younger Jing Yuan held the array sword, staring blankly at the demonic soldiers in front of him.

Behind him, Jingliu, still in his normal form, slowly drew his longsword and stepped forward.

"This is what happens when you fall into the demonic realm."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Liu's figure swept past the demonic soldiers, instantly severing their life force.

"The demonic body is the destiny of the immortal race."

"If one day I fall into the demonic realm."

"You must not show any mercy either."

Jingliu turned around and said to Jingyuan.

"...Yes, Master."

The slightly younger Jing Yuan frowned and lowered his head.

[Kaeya: Is this the most profound memory in General Kagemoto's mind right now, as he battles Kagami-ryu?]

[Diluc: While losing focus in battle is a major taboo, given General Jingyuan's condition, there's nothing that can be done.]

[Dain: However, since General Jingyuan can recall these memories, he'll probably be able to take the Mirror Style seriously from now on.]

………………

The illusory image of memory that had been floating in the air suddenly fell and crashed into Jing Yuan's body, who was fighting against Jing Liu.

Jing Yuan snapped back to his senses and looked up sharply at Jing Liu, who was swinging his sword down from the air.

Several sword lights flashed by, and Jing Yuan's figure was immediately sent flying more than ten meters away.

Jing Yuan finally managed to steady himself with his array sword, only to see Jing Liu slowly approaching with his sword, his face full of murderous intent, showing no trace of his former self.

Just like the soldiers who fell into demonic possession in those memories.

Jing Yuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, the hesitation in them was gone, leaving only determination.

Jing Yuan gripped the array blade tightly in his right hand, and rays of golden light rose from his body.

As he stood up, the golden light quickly formed a majestic figure behind him.

[Ying: God... God Lord?!]

[Datalia: Jing Yuan has already obtained the title of God-King? So, he really is now the General of the Immortal Ship?!]

[Silkirk: Without a doubt! Jing Yuan is willing to use the Divine Lord now, so he must have made up his mind.]

"Goodbye, Master." Jing Yuan pulled the array blades back with both hands, and the Divine Lord behind him did the same.

"Let me use this move to repay your kindness in teaching me."

Jing Yuan roared and unleashed a powerful slash at Jing Liu, wielding the divine power.

Jingliu slowly raised his head, and amidst the golden light, his eyes cleared for a moment, revealing a smile that seemed to be one of relief.

[Dartaria: As expected, even after witnessing General Jingyuan command the Divine Lord against the enemy Huanlong, seeing the Divine Lord display his divine power once again still leaves me deeply moved.]

[Skirk: This is, after all, an overwhelming power, something any martial artist would aspire to.]

[Araki Ichito: Hmph, with that one strike from the God-King, I ask you, can that Thunder General even withstand it?]

[Kujou Sara: Ara...taki...ichi...to!]

[Araki Ichito: What's your name, Kujo Tengu? Did I say something wrong?]

[Kuki Shinobu: Hey, calm down, boss. You just escaped from Kujo Sara not long ago, didn't you?]

[Araki Ichito: That was just a strategic retreat, not an escape!!!]

[Doctor: Did Jingyuan inherit the Divine Lord's power during this period? What kind of ritual granted him the power to command the Divine Lord?]

[Ying: This point probably requires the approval of the Emperor's Bow and Fate Master. Speaking of which, this Divine Lord's power is truly formidable.]

If only I could get a hunting arrow from Luo Feng that could help me awaken my divine lord status!

[Alice: Marry him, have a child with him, and I think your chances of getting hunting arrows will be very high, traveler.]

[Ying: Having...having a baby! I haven't thought about it yet!!!]

[Alice: Heh, how adorable, Traveler.]

Outside the memory projection, inside the train.

Jing Yuan stared at Jing Liu's slightly upturned lips in the projection and froze on the spot.

Did she smile back then?

Jing Yuan murmured to himself.

[Paimon: Hmm? What did General Jingyuan just say? Did Jingliu laugh earlier?]

[Dina Zede: I... I didn't see it clearly. The battle scenes were too fast, and the God-King's light was too dazzling.]

[Qin: In the golden light, she did indeed smile for a fleeting moment.]

[Diluc: In that instant, she probably regained her senses. It seems Jingliu was pleased with Jingyuan's decision.]

[Alice: As a master, she must be happy to see her disciple grow. It's just a pity she didn't witness Jingyuan's growth while she was fully conscious.]

[Navia: In that case, General Jingyuan will be the only one left of the Five Valiant Warriors of the Clouds.]

[Leosley: Although I don't know why Kagami is still alive, judging from the outcome, General Kagami is indeed a survivor.]

"Luo Feng, just now, Jing Liu... did her master 'leave' with a smile?"

Jing Yuan turned his head and asked Luo Feng with a puzzled look.

“Of course, with your eyesight you can’t see it clearly, Jingyuan.”

Luo Feng said.

"Of course, it's visible."

"But at that time... I don't think I saw my master smile."

"In that case, these fragments probably won't be in the memories I give you."

Jing Yuan said.

“That’s right.” Luo Feng nodded and said:

"However, you seem to have forgotten one thing. As I said before, what is shown in the memory projection is not the memory of one person, but a combination of the memories of people related to the Five Heroes of the Clouds."

"In other words, the fragments shown earlier are images formed by combining your memories of Jingyuan and Jingliu."

"Otherwise, what you're seeing wouldn't be a third-person perspective, but a first-person perspective from someone else's point of view."

"I see." Jing Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your explanation, and thank you for letting me know these details that I hadn't noticed before."

"Just a little thing."

Luo Feng shrugged and said.

"It's a small matter for you."

"But this is very important to me."

Jing Yuan shook his head and said.

Although the events surrounding the Five Heroes of the Clouds are now like fleeting clouds, something that can only be recalled in memories.
