"Do you know the background of the person who attempted to seize your body?" Chen Mobai waved his hand to Ku Zhu, signaling him to rise, and then asked.

Throughout the Tianhe Realm, masters at the Spirit Transformation Stage are mostly well-known. Excluding those True Spirits in the Five Continents and Four Seas that are in slumber, there shouldn’t be such unknown Devil Cultivators.

"That person claimed to be a cultivator from Submerged Abyss Island and suddenly appeared during the war among our three great sects of the East Barbarians over two hundred years ago..."

Ku Zhu immediately disclosed everything he knew that he could say.

"Submerged Abyss Island, is it? I didn’t expect the remnants of the Hall of Ten Directions to have completely fallen into the demon path."

After hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but nod gently.

"Senior, the Tianyuan Dao Fruit I refined belonged to that Devil Cultivator. To avoid being out of control again in the future, I plead to abolish all my cultivation level."

At this moment, Ku Zhu requested earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but show a look of amazement: "You’ve gone through so much hardship to reach this realm, are you truly willing to give it up?"

"Cultivation level is indeed important, but the people around me are more important. I don’t wish to become a tool for killing and harm the living beings."

Although Ku Zhu was not clear about Zhao Nancheng’s true origin, there is no doubt that he was a Devil Cultivator. He was well aware of the destructive power of a God-Transcending cultivator. If he lost his self-control, he might even harm his wife and children. Having barely escaped this time, he didn’t wish to leave any hidden danger.

"Good, good, good. It’s worth my effort to save you, having such a compassionate heart. Your future achievements will not be low." Chen Mobai laughed heartily, beckoning Ku Zhu to come to his side, "Extend your hand."

"Senior..."

Though Ku Zhu was puzzled, he obediently extended his right hand.

Chen Mobai pointed a finger and, with Prosperous Peace Sword Intent, drew a talisman in his palm, embodying his complete understanding of the Primordial Yang Sword Secret.

"This sword technique contains an unparalleled power for subduing demons. You are the only one I have seen capable of comprehending Prosperous Peace Sword Intent and have already embarked on your own path. Today, I shall pass the complete sword technique and sword intent to you, which is also a seal. If you ever fall, this sword intent will erupt, turning you into ashes."

As Chen Mobai spoke, the Primordial Yang Sword flew out from the void, infusing the golden talisman in Ku Zhu’s palm with sixth rank sword intent.

"If Senior does not mind, I wish to acknowledge you as my master!"

Having received the transmission of the Primordial Yang Sword Secret, Ku Zhu felt deeply indebted to Chen Mobai, a debt he could never repay, so he gritted his teeth and bowed down directly.

"I am nearing ascendance and long ago decided not to accept any disciples in this life. Besides, your children have entered under my wife’s tutelage, and if you became my disciple, wouldn’t their seniority become confused..."

Seeing Ku Zhu kneeling before him, Chen Mobai helped him up and declined, shaking his head.

"Whether a master acknowledges it is the master’s decision. In my heart, you are my second master, and for the remainder of my life, I shall adhere to the rites of a disciple towards you." Ku Zhu said resolutely.

Upon hearing these words, Chen Mobai just went along with it.

"Fine, let’s talk about the Primordial Yang Sword Secret. This sword technique doesn’t match your constitution, and the most you can do is comprehend the sword intent. In the future, if you encounter a suitable disciple, pass it on in my name, and don’t hold it back unnecessarily."

Chen Mobai kept the task of spreading Purple Cloud Palace’s teachings in mind, and the Primordial Yang Sword Secret, derived from the Pure Yang Scroll, can be considered as part of the Purple Cloud Lineage’s Daoist skill.

Moreover, having Ku Zhu instructed in it first means even if he ascends, there would be someone to guide Zhang Sizhu.

"Thank you, Master!"

Ku Zhu first pondered the sword secret, then evolved his own Prosperous Peace Sword Intent.

His sword intent’s origin stemmed from his desire to protect those close to him and, after merging with the framework of Prosperous Peace Sword Intent taught by Chen Mobai, transformed into a distinct sword intent.

Precisely due to this, he was able to safeguard his primordial spirit during the attempted possession by the heart demon and not be devoured.

Though this sword intent is still incomplete, its future height won’t be lower than Yuan Yang Ancestor’s Prosperous Peace Sword Intent.

Chen Mobai realized this indicated Ku Zhu had forged his own Sword Dao, and he couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction: "Since it is for protection, name this sword intent Heavenly Order."

"Thank you, Master, for the name."

Ku Zhu nodded and recalled his evolved sword intent.

"What do you plan to do next?"

After finishing the guidance, Chen Mobai inquired about Ku Zhu’s plans.

"Disciple wishes to visit family and then retire to seclusion in Kong Sang Valley. Is there any instruction from Master?" To Ku Zhu, who had battled all his life, he now merely desired to enjoy his later years peacefully.

"Then go ahead, but I sent your son to Jade Shatter Hall, and Mysterious Water accompanied him while your daughter remains in the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion."

Chen Mobai mentioned the arrangement he made for Ku Zhu’s children, to which the latter nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Shortly thereafter, Ku Zhu arrived at the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion.

"Sizhu, this is your father."

Chen Mobai instructed Jin Ling’er to bring Zhang Sizhu over and pointed to the slightly excited Ku Zhu, in a scene with a father and daughter meeting, so moving it evoked memories for Chen Mobai of his own reunion with Chen Xiaohei.

Unknowingly, decades had passed since he last saw his daughter, wondering how she has fared all this time. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Amidst his sentiments, Chen Mobai and Jin Ling’er left the hall, giving space to Ku Zhu and his daughter.

"Master, I plan to take my daughter to the Jade Shatter Hall."

Once emotions had settled, Ku Zhu led his daughter to pay respects to Chen Mobai, and his honorary address made Jin Ling’er by the side widen her eyes.
