"Indeed."

Zen Master Red Eyebrow couldn't help but sigh, "Jinshan Temple has never produced another such existence throughout history."

"He is a natural-born Immortal Buddha."

"We, who once prided ourselves as the prodigies of our time, are like dim sparks competing with the bright moon in his presence, destined to be eclipsed..."

To become a foundational existence is to be a top prodigy of an era.

But there was nothing to be done.

Fa Hai's achievements were too dazzling.

Even as a predecessor, Zen Master Red Eyebrow still felt ashamed.

"So, why do you think I would entrust his Golden Body to you?"

The Tree Demon Granny spoke, her tone laced with a cold sneer.

"What good would it do for us at Black Mountain to let such a madman successfully reincarnate and awaken?"

Fa Hai dedicated his life to exorcising demons and was extremely stubborn and insane. Once he identified a demon, no one could escape from his grasp!

Even when the Daoist of Qingcheng Mountain pleaded for the White Snake's life.

The White Snake merely escaped death, suffering eight hundred years of tribulation beneath Leifeng Pagoda.

If Cyan Snake had not succeeded in toppling Leifeng Pagoda, the White Snake would still be suffering at Jinshan Temple.

Such was the fate of a Demon of the Righteous Dao.

What then of the myriad demons of Black Mountain with their boundless karma?

And that day, when Fa Hai overlooked the Human World, she truly felt that oppressiveness.

It was no exaggeration to say it wasn't the aura of an ordinary Immortal!

He was too intense.

When his visage appeared on the celestial dome, it was like a blazing sun in the sky, deterring anyone from facing him directly.

The Tree Demon Granny would never allow such an existence to successfully reclaim his Golden Body!

Zen Master Red Eyebrow, hearing her cold sneer, slightly frowned in disgruntlement, saying:

"I have no desire to become enemies with Black Mountain; you should know your place."

Upon these words, what had been a relatively calm atmosphere suddenly turned tense and confrontational.

Boom!

In Ghost Valley, towering trees were uprooted, with the Tree Demon Granny standing majestically, responding with a cold smile:

"If I don't know my place, what will you do?"

Instantly, the demons of Black Mountain erupted, their malevolent energy surging skyward.

This was their domain!

Even if the Buddhist Sect's foundations wanted to fight, they feared not.

After all, many a foundation had perished here.

The atmosphere turned increasingly tense.

The demons of Black Mountain glared malevolently; as soon as the Tree Demon Granny gave the command, battle would ensue.

Yet, amidst such momentum, Zen Master Red Eyebrow remained fearless, merely casting a cold glance at the Tree Demon Granny before directing his gaze into the depths of Black Mountain.

"You there, do you intend to indulge your subordinates in stealing from my Jinshan Temple?"

With Zen Master Red Eyebrow's question, an overwhelmingly terrifying pressure quickly enveloped Black Mountain.

Even faced with Black Mountain's demons without a hint of expression change, Zen Master Red Eyebrow now found his eyelids trembling slightly and cold sweat involuntarily seeping from his back.

Yet he forcibly maintained composure, declaring loudly:

"I know I am no match for you!"

"But you must understand what it means for me to emerge from seclusion!"

"Fa Hai's Golden Body shall be taken by Jinshan Temple!"

"If I cannot take it, more formidable individuals will surely come!"

"Black Mountain Demon, you should know, even at your peak, could you handle the combined strength of multiple Buddhist Sect's foundations?"

His voice thundered like a storm, exceedingly serious in tone.

The Tree Demon Granny's eyes darkened.

In the depths of Black Mountain, a brief silence ensued.

No one spoke during this moment, the atmosphere growing increasingly suffocating.

The oppressive aura emanating from Black Mountain's depths weighed heavily, even upon someone like Zen Master Red Eyebrow, causing sweat to bead on his forehead.

Finally, as the tension within Zen Master Red Eyebrow reached a breaking point.

From within Black Mountain came a stern yet indifferent voice.

"Take it and go."

At these words, the assembled demons were taken aback.

The Tree Demon Granny hesitated, but ultimately held her tongue.

She looked at Zen Master Red Eyebrow with a rather sullen gaze.

Zen Master Red Eyebrow, however, breathed a great sigh of relief, unconcerned by Lord Black Mountain's rudeness, clasping his hands in gratitude:

"Amitabha, thank you!"

Then, a smile appeared on Zen Master Red Eyebrow's lips as he looked at the Tree Demon Granny.

Though reluctant, the Tree Demon Granny dared not defy Lord Black Mountain and, with a sigh, a golden skeleton was tossed out from Ghost Valley.

With joy gleaming in his eyes, Zen Master Red Eyebrow summoned Fa Hai's Golden Body into his palm with a wave.

Having obtained the item, Zen Master Red Eyebrow naturally lingered no longer. Leaving behind a farewell, he rode off on golden clouds, carefree.

The many demons of Black Mountain were resentful.

But none dared to voice it.

Only the Tree Demon Granny couldn't help but inquire: "My lord, Fa Hai's cultivation is formidable, and his life's obsession is to slay demons. Should he awaken, he may pose a threat to us!"

Having been suppressed beneath Qingcheng Mountain for a millennium, now finally seeing the light of day, she was loath to repeat past mistakes.

"The reincarnated one won't be found that quickly, nor is awakening a matter of a day and night."

"My injuries are yet to heal; I need ample time to recuperate."

"As for Fa Hai? After descending to the Human World, how much power could he retain?"

"Once I regain my peak, I shall slay him!"

The deep voice from Black Mountain was indifferently resolute.

The Tree Demon Granny's expression changed slightly, indicating Lord Black Mountain's knowledge of Fa Hai's true nature was lacking.

But it was understandable.

During Fa Hai's reign of invincibility in the world, they had long since been subjugated into obscurity.

"By the way, have you still not captured that Nie Xiaoqian?" Another slightly displeased voice came from within Black Mountain.

The Tree Demon Granny's eyes flickered slightly, responding: "Whatever treasure Yan Chixia gave her back then, I can't seem to detect her presence with all my techniques..."

As she spoke and sensed the mounting anger from Black Mountain's depths, the Tree Demon Granny quickly added:

"But worry not, my lord, I have identified another Top Grade Cauldron, and I plan to capture it after recovering my injuries in the next couple of days!"

The spectral fog surged within Black Mountain, calming only after a long period, leaving just a remote voice saying:

"Hurry up."

"As you command!"

Peace returned to Black Mountain.

The various demons retreated to their respective territories.

The Tree Demon Granny sighed in relief and then called upon the Female Ghost Huang Mei.

"Granny, what are your orders?" Huang Mei bowed with curiosity.

The Tree Demon Granny calmly said, "Take me to Qingfeng Temple."

Huang Mei was taken aback, "What about your injuries?"

The Tree Demon Granny stated indifferently, "Recovered somewhat, we won't wait. To avoid prolonged delays, it would be hard to explain to my lord."

Hearing this, Huang Mei nodded.

Then, black clouds from Ghost Valley whirled, leaving Black Mountain behind.
