Lin Heng's body seemed to turn into a vortex.

The colossal hand seal, like a mountain, was twisted, decomposed, and devoured by the terrifying suction of the vortex.

In that instant.

It seemed as if the sky was filled with a golden rain resulting from the collapse of the hand seal.

The golden rain fluttered down but did not touch the ground; instead, amidst their struggle, every drop was thoroughly devoured by Lin Heng.

Silence.

An eerie silence where not even a bird chirped.

Below White Cliff Mountain, everyone was utterly dumbfounded.

Reporters almost forgot to breathe, staring blankly at the sky, holding their filming equipment rigidly.

Only in the livestream, tens of millions of netizens were shocked and astonished.

"Whoa! Whoa!"

"What the heck? What happened?"

"That palm seal as gigantic as a mountain, that suffocating golden Buddha's Palm, why did it disappear?"

"It didn't disappear... it was... it was destroyed by the Daoist..."

"Destroyed? But the Daoist clearly didn't move, he didn't so much as twitch, and yet he destroyed the golden Buddha's Palm?"

"Oh my God, could this Daoist actually be an immortal descended to the mortal realm?"

"Just how many tricks does he have hidden from us?"

"Originally, I thought those four invincible Vajra Monks would be the Daoist's greatest enemies, yet they were eradicated in a moment."

"Now, I thought this living immortal from the Buddhist Sect would crush the Daoist with a single palm, but the impressive golden Buddha's Palm was effortlessly eradicated by the Daoist?"

"So, what's this called? In the face of absolute strength, everything else is just fancy embellishments?"

"I'm convinced, I'm truly convinced this time!"

"If anyone dares say this Daoist isn't an immortal, I'll definitely spit in their face!"

"No more words, from today onwards, my whole family converts to Daoism!"

"No need to convert, I've already been a fan of the Daoist for ten years!"

"You're full of crap, I just saw you send a barrage, supporting the master to teach the Daoist a lesson!"

"..."

The disappearance of the Great Fury Celestial Sound Palm sparked heated discussions among the netizens.

They didn't understand what Qi Body Origin Flow was, they only knew that the presence of that Great Fury Celestial Sound Palm was immensely abnormal, yet ultimately, the Daoist didn't even bother to move and easily resolved it.

If such power isn't that of a living immortal, what is?

For a while, many passersby were completely won over.

Even some Buddhist believers began to have a change of heart.

Meanwhile, the cultivators and demons spectating the scene each harbored their own thoughts.

Most cultivators saw this with joy and amusement.

The Buddhist Sect had been gaining momentum too fiercely in recent years, and if such a formidable figure could appear in Daoism, it would undoubtedly be good news for both Daoism and the cultivation realm.

The demons, on the other hand, had much uglier expressions.

Honest and straightforward demons were slightly better off, thinking that since the Bear Demon King could get along with this Daoist, it likely meant the Daoist was discerning, and might not be inclined to kill demons on sight.

However, those with wicked intentions and karmic obstacles couldn't help but silently worry.

After all, for them, Daoists and monks were their greatest fears.

Buddhism wasn't as bad as Daoism when it came to handling demons during chaotic times.

But these Daoist fellows, seemingly indifferent, delve deeply into cultivation all day, appearing to care about nothing.

Yet once the demon race wreaks havoc in the human world, these Daoists, regardless of their power, grab a willow branch and descend the mountains to restore order.

The demons are both annoyed and afraid of them.

In recent years, Daoism had finally declined, giving them a chance to wreak havoc again, and now, suddenly, such a monstrously powerful Daoist appears—undoubtedly a disastrous revelation for them!

"The Elder of Jinshan Temple, but at least give some effort and take him down!"

Some malevolent demons were growing increasingly restless and uneasy.

As for the involved Nine Pearl Monk, there was nothing more to say.

Seeing how his Great Fury Celestial Sound Palm was effortlessly neutralized by the opponent's Qi Body Origin Flow, his face fell instantly, wishing his heart to speak to those idiots from Guangming Temple.

This Daoist was at the Profound Communication Realm ten days to half a month ago?

Screw your Profound Communication!

No need to say, the Daoist Grandmaster was unmistakably standing before him.

As for those four who had disappeared, they were evidently sent to the Western Heaven by him.

Of course, Nine Pearl Monk didn't care in the slightest about their fate.

His only concern now was the possible teaming up of these two Grandmasters!

"Daoist, are you sure you want to disgrace yourself by associating with demons against a humble monk like me?"

"If that's truly the case, aren't you afraid of Daoism being discredited by the public?"

Nine Pearl Monk calmed down, speaking in a solemn tone without the previous disdain.

Lin Heng's face remained indifferent.

He noticed these bald monks always liked to use the public to leverage him.

He couldn't be bothered to attend to this, nor did he deign to argue.

But the Black Bear Spirit wasn't about to let this bald monk throw mud at Daoism, and straightforwardly rebuked:

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"What do you mean by colluding with demons? Master Xiong is the Daoist's Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast, the Daoist officially received a decree from the Ancestral Master of Daoism."

"Master Xiong is now a bona fide member of Daoism; what's all this about collusion?"

"As for you, joining forces with those four Vajra Monks, invading our Qingfeng Temple for no reason, and still trying to throw dirt at the boss."

"Why is your Buddhist Sect so shameless? Twisting facts every day, do you take the public for fools?"

"Master Xiong tells you, fairness resides in people's hearts; the wise will not be misled by you!"

The Black Bear Spirit spoke with firm determination, its voice exceedingly loud.

So all present could hear clearly.

The countless netizens in the livestream also heard clearly, that sentence 'the wise will not be misled by you' deeply resonated with them!

"Damn, well said, do they really think we're fools?"

"The Buddhist monks are often climbing White Cliff Mountain, talking about friendly exchanges, yet it always ends in battle, clearly aiming to kill the Daoist!"

"Ill-intentioned at heart, still often trying to spatter mud on the Daoist, aiming to use public opinion to tarnish Daoism's reputation; let me tell you, I'm not falling for it!"

"Though this Black Bear Spirit be a demon, in legends from both the Buddhist Sect and Daoism, it is not uncommon for mountain guardian spirit beasts and demon steeds to exist; since the Black Bear Spirit has been decreed, it is a member of Daoism, no talk of collusion with demons!"

"Last time, the Daoist was already deeply hurt by us, this time, we mustn't be bewitched by the bald monks again!"

"That's right, this old bald monk might as well be talking nonsense, I support the Daoist unconditionally!"

"+10086!!"

...

At that moment, Lin Heng, noticing the surge in reputation value floating through his mind, suddenly realized something.

He glanced at the reporters at the foot of the mountain, then at the Black Bear Spirit, and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips.

The expression of Nine Pearl Monk, in stark contrast, was gloomy.

He glared at the Black Bear with a steel-blue face, wishing to tear it to pieces and swallow it whole!
