The bright moon hung high in the night sky, and a faint white light shone down on the earth. At the top of the mountain, an old man and a young man sat on the ground.
"King Sword Sect, Looking Sword Sect and Star Sword Sect were all created by the remaining disciples of the True God Sword Sect." Chu Mu said.
"I know about these three sects. I went to see them once." The white-robed old man shook his head and said, "It's impossible for them to restore the glory of the True God Sword Sect."
Chu Mu was silent for a moment. Actually, he did not know if the True God Sword Sect could reach the glory of the True God Sword Sect. He only did his best.
"Do you know what conditions are needed to become the Sect Leader of the True God Sword Sect?" The white-robed old man asked.
"The recognition of the Sword Sect Spirit Seal?" Chu Mu said with a questioning tone. After all, he definitely did not know as much about the True God Sword Sect as the old man in front of him.
"That's right. Every generation's Sect Leader of the True God Sword Sect needs to obtain the recognition of the Sword Sect Spirit Seal." The white-robed old man said. His gaze became deep, as if he had traveled through thousands of years of time and space to return to the True God Sword Sect. "Every generation's Sect Leader has obtained the recognition of the Sword Sect Spirit Seal. They are all extremely talented, and each of them can at least become a peerless expert …"
As the old man spoke, he suddenly stopped. His eyes widened, as if he had seen something unbelievable. For him, who had cultivated for thousands of years, this was definitely an unbelievable thing.
What did he see?
In Chu Mu's hand, a white object had appeared out of nowhere. It emitted a sparkling and translucent luster, and was as gentle as jade.
"Sword Sect … Spirit Seal …" The white robed old man's tone seemed to be extremely strenuous, yet it was also filled with excitement. After that, with a thought, the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal fell into his hand. After carefully sensing it, the old man seemed to have gone mad, and his tone was filled with both sorrow and joy. "The Sword Sect's Spirit Seal … It really is the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal … I've seen the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal again in my lifetime …"
Chu Mu could not understand that kind of feeling.
The Sword Sect Spirit Seal had always been the inheritance treasure of the True God Sword Sect. It was the symbol of the Sect Master, and also a symbol of the True God Sword Sect. In the hearts of all the people of the True God Sword Sect, especially those in the upper echelons, it was supreme.
The white-robed old man had been to three sects before, but he did not stay. Firstly, he felt that it was impossible for the three sects to recreate the glory of the True God Sword Sect. Secondly, the sect masters of the three sects did not obtain the Sword Sect Spirit Seal.
The second point was the most important factor.
That battle back then was incomparably tragic, with countless casualties. The Sect Master had also died in battle, and the Sword Sect Spirit Mark had disappeared along with him.
"I was lucky enough to survive. I spent a few hundred years recuperating, and when my injuries were almost healed, I immediately set out to search for the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal. I searched for over a thousand years, but I found nothing. In the end, I lived in seclusion in a small mountain village." The old man gradually calmed down and said as if he was reminiscing, "I didn't expect … I didn't expect the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal to be here … All of this is the will of the heavens."
As if he was talking to himself, the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal flew up and landed in Chu Mu's hand. The white-robed old man immediately performed three sword salutes to Chu Mu.
"The fourteenth elder of the True God Sword Sect greets the Sect Master." The white-robed old man's attitude was completely different from his previous casual attitude. There was a kind of respect that came from the bottom of his heart.
However, Chu Mu understood that rather than saying that the old man respected him, it was more accurate to say that he respected the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal. He had obtained the recognition of the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal, and had also obtained the old man's respect and recognition.
Whether the old man respected him or the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal, there was no difference in Chu Mu's eyes. He was happy that the True Sword Sect might have an expert overseeing it.
"Senior, the True God Sword Sect has already become history, but the new True Sword Sect is rising. In the future, it will definitely be able to recreate the glory and glory of the True God Sword Sect." Chu Mu said, "I implore senior to stay behind and oversee the True Sword Sect. The current True Sword Sect is still too weak."
"As you wish, Sect Master," said the white-robed old man.
Chu Mu let out a sigh of relief. The old man had once been an elder of the True Sword Sect. Now that he was overseeing the True Sword Sect, the defensive power of the True Sword Sect would increase even further.
"May I ask how I should address you, elder?" Chu Mu asked.
"My surname is Dugu, and my name is Chong," said the white-robed old man.
Dugu Chong!
"May I ask what level of strength you possess, elder?" Chu Mu asked seriously.
"According to the classification, I should be a supreme expert above Nine Star Saint Tier and below Saint King," said the white-robed old man. The white-robed old man said. There was no boasting in his tone. Instead, there was a hint of helplessness. Back then, although he was an elder, he was only a Seven Star Saint. He knew that although his talent was not bad, reaching Nine Star Saint was his limit.
What he did not expect was that in the battle of the True God Sword Sect, he was heavily injured and on the verge of death before he was rescued. He spent hundreds of years recovering from his injuries and thousands of years searching for the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal. Although he did not find the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal, he had some fortuitous encounters and some gains in the process. After that, he retired to a small mountain village and cultivated his body and mind. His cultivation increased, and he unknowingly broke through to the level that he had always dreamed of. However, the True God Sword Sect had long ceased to exist.
"Alright, from now on, you will be an elder of the True Sword Sect. You will oversee the True Sword Sect." Chu Mu was overjoyed when he heard that.
Only a first-rate force would have a supreme expert overseeing it. Now, the True Sword Sect, which could only be considered a second-rate force, had a supreme expert overseeing it.
"Dugu Chong obeys the sect master's order." The white-robed elder was also very serious as he bowed to the sect master.
"No need to be so courteous, Elder. The safety of the True Sword Sect will still depend on you in the future," Chu Mu said.
"This is my duty," Dugu Chong said with a smile. Dugu Chong smiled. His mood suddenly improved. When he saw the Sword Sect's Spirit Seal, the stone in his heart fell, and he heaved a sigh of relief.
And this sect master had obtained the recognition of the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal. He must be an amazing person who could definitely lead the True Sword Sect to become stronger.
Chu Mu summoned the elder. His surname was Zhao.
The elder looked at Dugu Chong's face in a daze.
"Elder Zhao, Dugu Chong was an elder of the True God Sword Sect back then," Chu Mu said.
"Dugu … Dugu …" Elder Zhao sank into his memories. After a dozen breaths, elder Zhao's body trembled. He stared at Dugu Chong in disbelief, "Could it be … Could it be Elder Dugu Chong?"
"That's me," Dugu Chong said.
"Zhao Yuanze, an official disciple of the True God Sword Sect, greets Elder Dugu." Elder Zhao's tears flowed.
"The True God Sword Sect has passed. Now is the era of the True Sword Sect." Dugu Chong's heart was also very complicated, but he controlled his emotions and said in a low voice.
…
Chu Mu was very happy with Dugu Chong's arrival.
A peerless expert was incomparably useful to the True Sword Sect.
Although Chu Mu had the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal, and there were not only peerless experts in the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal, but there were also Saint Kings. However, they would only act for Chu Mu once.
Otherwise, Chu Mu had planned to let one of them stay in the True Sword Sect. Now, this problem was solved.
In this era where Saint Kings didn't appear, a peerless expert was the supreme fighting force.
The Profound Yang Sword Realm wasn't strong enough to withstand a peerless expert. Therefore, Dugu Chong only restrained his aura and entered the Profound Yang Sword Hall to take a look. Chu Mu also brought him to see the sword techniques he had comprehended and written down from the Myriad Sword Stele.
If the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal was the proof of the sect master, then the Myriad Sword Stele was the foundation of the True God Sword Sect.
Now that both were here, Dugu Chong had a kind of confidence that the True Sword Sect would definitely be able to develop and become stronger, and even regain its glory.
Soon after, Chu Mu was pleasantly surprised to find that not only did Dugu Chong have the strength of a peerless expert, but he also had extremely profound attainments in the Dao of Puppetry. He even surpassed Chu Mu.
Chu Mu and Dugu Chong had a discussion on the Dao of Puppetry.
"Sect Master, I didn't expect you to have such attainments in the Dao of Puppetry." Dugu Chong was also very surprised. Although Chu Mu's attainments in the Dao of Puppetry weren't as good as his, it was still not bad. Furthermore, Chu Mu's understanding of the Dao of Puppetry was actually much more complete than his.
"I obtained the relevant inheritance in the Eternal Sacred City." Chu Mu smiled and said, "However, I don't have the time to study it now. Why don't I hand it over to Grand Elder?"
As he spoke, Chu Mu transmitted the contents of the Heavenly Eye Secret Manual into Dugu Chong's mind. At the same time, he also transmitted the cultivation method of the Rainbow Ring.
"What an exquisite secret manual, the Heavenly Eye Secret Manual, the inheritance of the Ancient Puppet Sect …" The more Dugu Chong read, the more excited he became. His white beard rose up and down, and his eyes were wide open, emitting a strong light. "There's actually a level seven Primordial Spirit Defense Secret Manual …"
Only now did he know that this seemingly young sect master actually had such a shocking foundation.
Apart from cultivation, Dugu Chong also liked to study the Dao of Puppetry. Unfortunately, the manuals he had on the Dao of Puppetry were only ordinary ones. They were scattered and scattered. The reason he could reach his current level of attainment in the Dao of Puppetry was the result of thousands of years of research.
Now that he had obtained the inheritance of the Heavenly Eye Secret Manual, he had even more complete and profound guidance. With his deep accumulation, he would definitely be able to make another huge breakthrough in the Dao of Puppetry.
Chu Mu was also relieved.
Although the puppets in the Puppet Cave were very difficult to destroy, some damage was inevitable over a long period of time. In the True Sword Sect, only Chu Mu knew how to repair the puppets. However, as the sect master, how could he always repair the puppets? Over time, the Puppet Cave might very well lose its effectiveness.
That was no longer the case. Apart from his own cultivation, Dugu Chong also studied the Dao of Puppetry in the True Sword Sect. He could create more and more powerful puppets, and those puppets might even become the powerful guards of the True Sword Sect.
As for the Rainbow Ring Primordial Spirit Defense Secret Manual, it was a level seven Primordial Spirit Defense Secret Manual. It was just right for Dugu Chong to cultivate. This was because one of the prerequisites to becoming a peerless expert was to have a level seven Primordial Spirit.
