Sun Wukong subdued the two demons, Taoist priest Black Head and Lady Stamen. Taoist priest Black Head had achieved true immortal cultivation and possessed extensive knowledge, so Sun Wukong appointed him as the chief manager, while Lady Stamen became the guardian of Water Curtain Cave.
Under the command of these two demons, there were dozens of minor demons in the mortal immortal realm, all of whom were now recruited by Sun Wukong and became the fighting force of Water Curtain Cave.
At the East Sea Dragon Palace, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance, dressed in black armor, walked straight towards the Dragon Palace.
Dragon Palace - In the Dragon Palace, an elderly figure with the head of a dragon and the body of a human, dressed in a flowing dragon robe, opened his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man, furrowing his brow and saying, "Black Dragon, why are you so impatient?"
The dignified middle-aged man, named Black Dragon, is a powerful dragon who was highly regarded by the East Sea Dragon King and appointed as the leader of the Dragon Palace.
Black Dragon bowed to East Sea Dragon King and said, "Your Majesty, it has been reported that Crab General was killed at Flower Fruit Mountain. I request permission to investigate this matter at Flower Fruit Mountain."
East Sea Dragon King, Guang Ao, upon hearing this, looked slightly serious and said in a low voice, "Flower Fruit Mountain... sigh, Black Dragon, Flower Fruit Mountain is not simple. If you are going there, there is one thing to remember: do not provoke the monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain."
Black Dragon asked in surprise, "Monkeys? I have already investigated. Flower Fruit Mountain now has four major forces, namely a sea snake, a flower demon, and a Taoist who goes by the name of Black Head, and the rest are a group of monkey demons. These monkey demons are mediocre in skill. Why does the Dragon King seem to be wary of them?"
Guang Ao shook his head and said, "You don't need to ask too much about this. Just remember, do not provoke those monkeys."
Black Dragon received orders and led hundreds of shrimp soldiers and crab generals straight to Flower Fruit Mountain.
Sun Wukong subdued Lady Stamen and Taoist priest Black Head, and the monkeys of Water Curtain Cave once again became the overlords of Flower Fruit Mountain, free to frolic as they pleased. Sun Wukong watched the monkeys frolicking around with a smile on his face, but deep down, he was worried about their lifespan.
The monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain, once their lifespan is over, will be thrown into the Yin Mountain, never to be reincarnated. This deeply saddened Sun Wukong, as he constantly sought a way to save the trapped souls of the monkey tribe in the Yin Mountain, but due to the presence of King Ksitigarbha, Sun Wukong felt powerless.
"King, what are you thinking about?" Taoist priest Black Head saw Sun Wukong frowning and couldn't help but ask. Sun Wukong looked at Taoist priest Black Head and asked, " Black Head, I ask you, do you know about Underworld Yin Mountain?"
"Underworld Yin Mountain?"
Taoist priest Black Head showed a curious expression on his face and said, "king, why are you suddenly interested in Yin Mountain?"
Sun Wukong, seeing that Taoist priest Black Head seemed to really know something, hurriedly asked, "Please tell me everything you know."
Taoist priest Black Head knew that the Monkey was impatient, so he didn't dare to delay and quickly said, "King, this Yin Mountain, also known as the nineteenth level of hell, is called the Avici Hell. It is said that when hell was first formed, there was no mention of Yin Mountain. At that time, hell was ruled by Fengdu Heavenly King, and everything was in order. However, one day, an evil spirit refused to be reincarnated, injured a ghost soldier, and led a group of similarly unwilling evil spirits to hide in Yin Mountain. From that time on, whenever there were evil spirits unwilling to be reincarnated, they would flee to Yin Mountain. Gradually, Yin Mountain gathered countless evil spirits, among whom several powerful ghost kings were born. Even Underworld could not eliminate them, so they had to set up the Tianjue Great Array in Yin Mountain to lock the evil spirits inside. Gradually, that place became the nineteenth level of hell, becoming the Avici Hell, where all the untransmigrated souls are imprisoned."
After listening, Sun Wukong asked in confusion, "Isn't hell ruled by King of Hell? And as for Yin Mountain, it is clearly presided over by King Ksitigarbha. Who is this Fengdu Heavenly King you mentioned? Why have I never heard of these things?"
Taoist priest Black Head replied, "Please forgive me, king. I have been practicing Taoism since I was young under a Taoist with white hair. My master was fond of studying ancient secrets. According to my master, a long time ago, there were no Ten King of Hell s and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. They were not the earliest rulers of the Underworld. The earliest ruler was Fengdu Heavenly King."
"Ah, I see. Do you happen to know how to enter Yin Mountain?" Sun Wukong blinked and asked, wanting to know if there was a way to enter Yin Mountain. Taoist priest Black Head chuckled and said, "You're joking, Your Majesty. I have never been to Yin Mountain, so how would I know such things? But I have heard that throughout history, only one Ghost King has escaped from Yin Mountain. If Your Majesty wants to learn about Yin Mountain, perhaps you can go find him."
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up and he asked, "Oh? Where is this Ghost King now?"
Taoist priest Black Head replied, "That Ghost King is now at Uttarakuru, a place called Mangshan Ghost Realm. He calls himself Mangshan Demon King and has established a small Underworld. He has great supernatural powers and boundless magic. It is said that he has already reached the realm of The Golden Immortal of Taiyi."
"The Golden Immortal of Taiyi? Such a powerful Ghost King. I would like to go and meet him."
Sun Wukong heard about the Mangshan Demon King reaching the realm of The Golden Immortal of Taiyi, and a strong sense of battle intent appeared in his eyes.
Seeing this, Taoist priest Black Head's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking to himself: It seems that this monkey's abilities may not be weaker than The Golden Immortal of Taiyi. Could this powerful monkey really be the The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal? It looks like I must report the situation here to my master.
Sun Wukong didn't notice Taoist priest Black Head's unusual reaction; he was considering whether to immediately go to Uttarakuru.
Black Dragon led the shrimp soldiers and crab generals to Flower Fruit Mountain and, following their senses, they arrived at Water Curtain Cave.
"Leader, there's still the scent of Crab General here."
A water soldier sniffed the air and turned to Black Dragon to report.
"This is the territory of the Monkey Demon."
Black Dragon frowned slightly. Guang Ao had once ordered Black Dragon not to provoke the Monkey Clan, but now, Crab General had disappeared in the territory of the Monkey Clan with his last breath. As the leader, Black Dragon could not tolerate the unclear death of his subordinate. He decided to disobey Guang Ao's command.
"Block off Water Curtain Cave. I, as the leader, want to see who dares to kill the general of my East Sea Dragon Palace." Black Dragon waved his hand, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals immediately surrounded Water Curtain Cave. Sun Wukong, who was talking to Taoist priest Black Head, frowned as he sensed a strange immortal aura approaching Water Curtain Cave.
"Report to Second King, trouble is brewing, there are many soldiers and horses from the East Sea Dragon King outside."
Several monkeys rushed in a panic, as they only recognize The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal as their king, so Sun Wukong, who didn't want to reveal his identity, had the monkeys call him Second King.
"Soldiers and horses from the East Sea Dragon King? Hmph, perfect timing, I happen to be in need of a good weapon."
Sun Wukong A glint flashed in his eyes, and a faint smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of a cold smile.
