As Chen Sheng's words fell, the clouds outside Celestial Capital Peak began to churn suddenly.

Two brilliant rainbow lights tore through the clouds, one green and one red, like two lively ribbons, landing steadily in front of the array.

The rainbow lights dispersed, revealing two figures.

On the left was a middle-aged man in a green robe, with gentle eyes yet carrying an air of authority. He was Li Yang of the Qinghua Sect.

On the right was a middle-aged cultivator in a red robe, with a tall and upright figure, a resolute face, and a rebellious look between his brows. He was Yuan Baixu of the Li Xiao Sect.

The two of them gazed at the Water Shadow Illusion Body at the edge of the array, cupping their hands respectfully:

"Li Yang of the Qinghua Sect, greetings to Fellow Daoist Tingyu!"

"Yuan Baixu of the Li Xiao Sect, greetings to Fellow Daoist Tingyu!"

Although they couldn't clearly see the specific scene inside the grand array, the glimpse of the Water Moon Array and the astonishing power of the sword array within left them deeply shocked.

Venerable Soul Manipulator Mo Yunshan had been rampant across the Chu Country for years, with enigmatic demon techniques, even capable of contending with actual Golden Core Cultivators.

Both of them had crossed paths with him before, acknowledging that they were no match for him.

Now, this formidable figure of the Demon Dao was trapped within this array, so they naturally dared not underestimate this Daoist Tingyu, addressing him now as a fellow Daoist.

The Water Shadow Illusion Body nodded slightly, speaking with a calm and even tone:

"Tingyu understands the purpose of your visit."

"However, this humble Taoist is devoted to the Dao, living a solitary life, and cannot endure the constraints of sects, with no intention of joining any sects. Please forgive this."

As soon as the words fell, the sound of wind and thunder suddenly arose from the peak of Celestial Capital Peak.

A hundred and eight Wind and Thunder Flying Swords whirled through the Cloud Sea, their bodies flickering with thunder light, as fierce winds howled, exuding an overwhelming momentum that added significant weight to these words.

Li Yang and Yuan Baixu exchanged a glance, both smiling bitterly.

Before they came, they only considered the other party to be a Foundation Establishment perfection Sword Cultivator, thinking they could use the sect's influence and generous conditions to coerce and tempt him into submission.

But now the situation has dramatically changed, with the other party capable of slaying a Master Fake Pill like Mo Yunshan, his strength far exceeding their expectations, and their original plan was naturally unworkable.

They were not the kind of Demon Cultivators who recklessly ignored the consequences, and their sects were large and powerful; they certainly did not want to offend such a formidable character over a single recruitment.

The two again cupped their hands:

"Fellow Daoist pursues a carefree life, and we admire that. If Fellow Daoist visits the Qinghua Sect or the Li Xiao Sect in the future, we will certainly welcome you with open arms!"

With that, they transformed into two rays of rainbow light, flying towards their respective sects.

The Water Shadow Illusion Body watched them leave, while Chen Sheng's true body gently shook his head at the peak of the Cloud Sea.

He said he would eventually meet old acquaintances, and here they were now?

He even met his descendants!

However, he did not linger in sentimentality; the path of cultivation is inherently full of unpredictable gatherings and partings.

He quickly waved the array banner in his hand, and countless lights from the array spread like a giant net, covering the Tingyu Market below.

Occasionally, a flash of thunder light or sword qi would fall from the array light, accurately striking those cultivators trying to take advantage of the chaos.

Screams rang out one after another, and the chaotic market soon settled down.

Chen Sheng then sent a telepathic message to Li Wu and Yellow Jade:

"Quickly handle the mess in the market, appease the cultivators, and assess the losses."

At this moment, Li Wu and Yellow Jade had just experienced the shocking scene of Chen Sheng slaying a Master Fake Pill, by then already regarding him as a god, and upon receiving the order, they quickly complied:

"At your command!"

The two quickly organized their people, beginning to methodically handle the aftermath.

After completing all this, Chen Sheng returned to the cave mansion, sitting cross-legged on the Cold Jade Bed, taking stock of the spoils from this encounter.

It must be said that as a longstanding giant of the Demon Dao, Mo Yunshan indeed carried quite a number of good items.

The White Bone Banner and Soul Manipulation Chain were both Tier Three Lower Grade magical treasures of superior quality, and with a bit of refining to erase the evil aura, they could be repurposed for other uses.

His Storage Ring was filled with various demonic materials, including the Essence Blood of cultivators for refining Blood Pills, and Yin Evil Stones for carving Demon Arrays.

There was also a wide array of spiritual materials plundered from prominent families, dazzling and piled like a mountain.

Chen Sheng touched his fingertip, and a faint Divine Sense entered Mo Yunshan's remaining body, beginning a Soul Search.

As countless fragmented memories surged into his sea of consciousness, many unknown secrets gradually surfaced.

This Mo Yunshan was even among the group from years back that followed the two Dharma Kings across the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, possessing a wealth of valuable information.

This included the customs and power distribution of the Yue Kingdom Cultivation Realm, as well as some hidden cultivation resource locations.

Chen Sheng murmured to himself, a look of understanding flashing in his eyes:

"So, Venerable Black Demon died at the hands of the White Bone Dharma King early on, and besides that, there were the Blood Refining Dharma King and Venerable Black Snake..."

"The Four Symbols Secret Technique, to attack Nascent Soul!"

This coincided with his initial guess.

Mo Yunshan mentioned possessing the Nascent Soul Secret Technique, which was indeed referring to this Four Symbols Secret Technique.

Years ago, after the White Bone Dharma King killed Venerable Black Demon, Mo Yunshan defected to the White Bone Demon Sect.

Later, when the White Bone Dharma King failed in his breakthrough, this Secret Technique continued to be passed down within the White Bone Demon Sect.

Later on, as the White Bone Demon Sect was defeated by the joint efforts of two sects, Mo Yunshan took the opportunity to snatch a portion of the inheritance and fled.

Thus, the Secret Technique in his possession was incomplete, with parts remaining in the possession of the two sects in the Chu Country and the remnants of the White Bone Demon Sect.

Upon learning the origin of this Secret Technique, Chen Sheng shook his head:

"Even if the Secret Technique were complete, it would be nothing special!"

He continued to browse through the various demonic secret skills and inheritances left by Mo Yunshan, including from the Blood Refining Hall and White Bone Demon Sect.

Most were evil techniques involving Absorption or Soul Devouring, failing to pique his interest.

Until he came across a Secret Technique named "Blood Shadow Layered," his eyes focused. This was the last Secret Technique Mo Yunshan had cast.

"This is indeed a life-saving technique!"

...

Celestial Capital Peak remained enshrouded in mist, yet after this battle, its standing in the Chu Kingdom Cultivation Realm had become entirely different.

Chen Sheng's feat of slaying Master Fake Pill Mo Yunshan spread rapidly across the cultivation realm like wings, instantly causing a sensation!

Foundation Establishment Cultivator slaying a Master Fake Pill!

Such an achievement was extremely rare in the history of the Chu Kingdom Cultivation Realm, and now that it has appeared again, how could it not be shocking?

Qinghua Sect, on Pill Furnace Peak.

Qin Daolei held a Communication Jade Scroll, his fingers trembling slightly, nearly dropping the scroll.

He murmured in amazement:

"Foundation Establishment slaying Fake Pill, truly a Sword Cultivator! Truly a Sword Cultivator!"

Initially, he felt that the strength of Daoist Tingyu was extraordinary. Now, it seemed his strength far surpassed his imagination.

He dared not delay and promptly presented the jade scroll to Wu Ruoxu.

After Wu Ruoxu finished reading it, he too was shocked, drawing in a sharp breath, his eyes filled with disbelief:

"With a Foundation Establishment body, to slay Mo Yunshan, an experienced Fake Pill... this Daoist Tingyu's battle power is likely comparable to that of early-stage Golden Core Cultivators!"

Beside him, Zhao Bailu was so shocked that he fell silent from fear, not daring to utter a single disrespectful word.

It was known that Venerable Soul Manipulator Mo Yunshan harbored an intense vendetta with their Zhao Clan, with nearly the entire Zhao Clan of West River perishing at his hands.

Now the great enmity was avenged, and in such an astonishing manner, he couldn't help but feel a complex mix of emotions in his heart.

Before long.

A Jade Order at Wu Ruoxu's waist suddenly lit up, emitting a soft spirit light.

After reviewing the contents of the Jade Order, he dared not delay and rushed towards the Hidden Dragon Cave direction.

Wu Ruoxu bowed respectfully to a Female Cultivator in a simple dress inside the cave mansion:

"Greetings, Grandmother!"

Wu Lingshuang nodded slightly, looking at him with gentle eyes:

"Do you remember Venerable Soul Manipulator Mo Yunshan, who killed an ancestor years ago?"

Wu Ruoxu nodded:

"Grandson remembers, it was Ancestor Lingxiao."

Upon hearing this, Wu Lingshuang's eyes flickered with nostalgia, and her tone carried a trace of sentimentality:

"Yes, how many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Mochou, Nianxi, they never forgot this until their deaths."

She took out a Sword Scripture from her Storage Pouch and handed it to Wu Ruoxu:

"Take this Sword Scripture to Celestial Capital Peak on my behalf, as a token of Pill Furnace Peak's gratitude for his kindness."

Wu Ruoxu received the Sword Scripture with both hands, and solemnly nodded:

"Great-Grandson understands!"
