To be fair, if it were Gu Qi, he definitely wouldn't have the resolve that Mo Lin does.
"Who sent you to deliver this message?" Mo Lin did not unleash his anger on Gu Qi.
After all, Gu Qi was just a messenger.
"Our Great Spirit Mountain, the Grand Elder." Gu Qi replied directly, without any hint of concealment, speaking straightforwardly to Mo Lin.
"I'll take you to meet him."
"Okay." Mo Lin nodded.
And so, Mo Lin followed Gu Qi to the Great Spirit Mountain.
Upon entering the Great Spirit Mountain, Mo Lin noticed a serene gaze locked onto him.
Though the gaze was quite distant, Mo Lin clearly felt its presence.
Turning his head, Mo Lin saw the figure of Xin Ziruo.
Xin Ziruo stood on a rooftop, her gaze fixed on Mo Lin, seemingly deep in thought.
Mo Lin courteously smiled at Xin Ziruo.
After all, Xin Ziruo had given Mo Lin a strand of Immortal Qi, helping him unlock the first phase constraint of the Five Viscera Concealing Ghost Skill.
Mo Lin felt grateful towards Xin Ziruo from the bottom of his heart.
Mo Lin knew well that Xin Ziruo probably wouldn't respond to him, but he still needed to do this.
However, at that moment, Xin Ziruo unexpectedly smiled back at Mo Lin.
She responded.
This sight left Mo Lin a bit surprised.
Some time ago, at Yunhua Dao, Xin Ziruo was cold and indifferent to him, even threatening to kill him next time they met.
This time, Xin Ziruo surprisingly greeted Mo Lin.
"Women are unfathomable," Mo Lin thought, perfectly describing this scenario.
It's truly puzzling, what is Xin Ziruo planning in her mind?
Mo Lin followed behind Gu Qi, arriving at a vacant spot.
Ahead stood an elderly man with a full head of white hair.
This elder was the person Gu Qi referred to, the Grand Elder of the Great Spirit Mountain.
"The person is here." Gu Qi pointed at the elder in the distance to explain to Mo Lin.
The Grand Elder walked towards Mo Lin with a genial smile.
He was slightly overweight and his face was full of wrinkles.
Perhaps due to personal emotions, Mo Lin felt nauseated upon seeing him.
He even wanted to curse at him.
"Is it you who won't let me return to the Celestial Sect?" Mo Lin questioned the Grand Elder.
"Young man, the Celestial Sect has contributed to the human world; I wish for you to let go of your grievances with Lin Xiaoman." The Grand Elder spoke leisurely to Mo Lin.
At the moment he heard this, Mo Lin's heart was filled with nameless fury rushing to his mind.
"You think one sentence can resolve all grievances between me and Lin Xiaoman?
Lin Xiaoman orchestrated to place the Three Calamities Destruction Curse on me, and you want me to let go of our enmity?
Based on what?" Mo Lin questioned the Grand Elder.
"Lin Xiaoman's group is valuable to the human world; they possess captain-level abilities, and losing them would be a detriment to the human world." The Grand Elder spoke leisurely to Mo Lin.
"What do you mean? Is their life valuable, and mine worthless?"
Mo Lin coldly questioned the Grand Elder.
"Please consider for the sake of the entire human world." The Grand Elder once again spoke to Mo Lin.
"I consider for the human world; who considers for me?" For unknown reasons, when Mo Lin conversed with the Grand Elder, his heart was filled with rage.
"Lin Xiaoman can kill me; I can't retaliate against Lin Xiaoman?"
The Grand Elder smiled, "Young man, I wish for you to stay a few days at the Great Spirit Mountain."
He said he wanted Mo Lin to stay a few days, but he actually intended to imprison Mo Lin.
"Do you know that Lin Xiaoman has dealings with the Ghost Realm?" Mo Lin questioned the Grand Elder.
"As long as it doesn't affect the big picture, it can be acceptable." The Grand Elder replied leisurely.
Upon hearing this tone, Mo Lin smirked, "So, you must know but have tacitly allowed it, right?"
The Grand Elder did not refute, clearly agreeing with Mo Lin's words.
"They cooperate with ghosts; you don't bother Lin Xiaoman, but instead trouble me here?"
The more Mo Lin thought about it, the angrier he became, and at that moment, his rage erupted completely.
"Sorry, I must destroy the Celestial Sect.
No one can stop me."
Mo Lin pointed his finger at the Grand Elder, "If you insist on stopping me, then I'll destroy your Great Spirit Mountain today."
Mo Lin's voice wasn't loud, but at this moment, everyone in the Great Spirit Mountain heard clearly.
After all, many people were secretly observing Mo Lin.
Mo Lin turned, his gaze fixed on the location of the Great Spirit Mountain's palace.
"Don't think I'm just all talk, but if anyone from the Great Spirit Mountain dares to obstruct me, I'll destroy the Great Spirit Mountain."
Mo Lin's tone was heavy, with a fleeting display of murderous intent within his eyes.
The Grand Elder still stood in front of Mo Lin, speaking leisurely, "Young man, can you stay at the Great Spirit Mountain for a few days?"
His intentions were apparent now, trying to forcefully keep Mo Lin.
"What if I say no?" Mo Lin retorted to the Grand Elder.
"Then I will have to use force to keep you." The Grand Elder took a deep breath and spoke to Mo Lin.
"If you dare to touch me even once, I will surely kill you."
Then Mo Lin looked towards the Great Spirit Mountain palace again and said, "If any second person at the Great Spirit Mountain dares to act, I'll destroy the Great Spirit Mountain."
Towards the side, Gu Qi stood in place, filled with enthusiasm from Mo Lin's tone.
Mo Lin seemed fearless.
The Grand Elder sighed softly, "Young man, you're showing poor judgment, so I'll have to take action myself."
With those words, the Grand Elder raised his right hand.
A surge of golden Buddha light emanated from behind him, and he swung his palm fiercely towards Mo Lin, a golden fingerprint bearing down on Mo Lin with force.
Mo Lin used the Five-Colored Wishing Power to resist the Grand Elder's palm.
The Grand Elder swung his hand again, his body emitting golden Buddha light, subsequently attacking Mo Lin.
Every strike was accompanied by a burst of explosion sound.
The Grand Elder was not randomly attacking; he was utilizing Buddhist Dharma.
His methods were exquisite.
Every strike could skillfully neutralize Mo Lin's Five-Colored Wishing Power.
Mo Lin's use of the Netherworld's Nether Fire was also blocked by the Grand Elder's golden Buddha light.
The Grand Elder clasped his hands together, and a massive Buddha statue silhouette appeared behind him.
Golden light shone in mid-air, with Buddha light covering Mo Lin.
Mo Lin felt a scorching sensation enveloping him.
It was as if he was about to be melted by the Buddha light.
This was the Great Spirit Mountain's, Buddha Illumination Technique.
This technique was highly effective against ghosts.
Against humans, it also had significant destructive power.
Witnessing Mo Lin's painful expression under the Buddha light, the Grand Elder suddenly became murderous.
"Young man, since you're stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Perhaps feeling he could defeat Mo Lin, the Grand Elder stopped pretending.
Buddha light descended upon Mo Lin, and subsequently, the Grand Elder attacked again.
The massive Buddha figure above gradually revealed its true form.
Sunlight Bodhisattva.
The Bodhisattva worshipped at the Great Spirit Mountain.
Similar to the Netherworld King Hall.
The Netherworld King Hall worships the Great Virtuous King Kongming.
The Great Spirit Mountain then worships Sunlight Bodhisattva.
The Grand Elder received Sunlight Bodhisattva's favor, capable of using a portion of Sunlight Bodhisattva's power.
Sunlight Bodhisattva's palm slowly descended towards Mo Lin, ready to crush him.
Gu Qi watched clearly from the side, witnessing Mo Lin change at that moment, fear revealed itself from his heart.
He then quickly stepped back.
At this moment, a hint of fear showed deep within his eyes.
A thought appeared in his mind, the Grand Elder would die.
