At Flower-Fruit Mountain in the Earth Immortal Realm, the vast immortal mountain overseas was desolate. Withered trees lay fallen, and all traces of life had vanished. The scene was bleak. Listening closely, one could barely hear any sign of living creatures. The hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals had descended to capture Sun Wukong. Countless living beings of the Demon Race had either been killed or captured alive.
Cihang Guanyin walked through Flower-Fruit Mountain and reached out to point. Droplets of Sweet Dew flew from the Jade Pure Bottle in her hand, turning into Spiritual Water in midair and sprinkling over the entire mountain. The Spiritual Water in this Lard Jade Pure Bottle had been drawn from the Eight Treasures Merit Pool on Spirit Mountain and refined by Guanyin. It possessed a benevolent power that nourished all things, making it exceptionally wondrous.
As the rain moistened the land, the whole world changed at once. Spring returned to the withered trees, and fresh shoots sprouted from the grasses. The mountain was suddenly full of life.
The cave's entrance opened silently. Cihang Guanyin walked in slowly. This place could hardly be called a cave; it was a miniature universe. There was no up or down, no north or south, and nowhere to set foot. Primeval stars filled every direction.
Guanyin exclaimed in admiration, "What a world within a cave! It's even more wondrous than my Great Thunderclap Temple on Spirit Mountain!" She rose and flew toward the densely clustered stars. Among the formations of stars stood a portal, startlingly out of place. Guanyin stepped through it and found a thatched hut within. Hua Dou sat in front of the hut and smiled. "Please, Daoist friend, have a seat."
Guanyin said, "Greetings, Primordial Saint. Your Great Divine Ability is truly remarkable."
