Chapter 78, Heroes
Zhang Zhiwei's talent is not only reflected in his combat prowess, but also in his unparalleled judgment of martial arts techniques.
[Zhang Zhiwei discerned the true nature of the Triple Rebirth technique from their very first encounter!]
The methods of the Reverse Life Triple Technique are different from those of other schools, but in essence it is very similar to the Golden Light Mantra of the Celestial Master's Mansion, only it is far more complex than the Golden Light Mantra.
Ordinary kung fu pursues extreme intensity, while the kung fu of the Huode Sect pursues fire; the goal of external training is to hone sufficiently strong muscles, bones, and skin.
However, the Golden Light Mantra of the Celestial Master's Mansion is different. It does not simply pursue the protective golden light. Instead, it aims to improve the cultivator's overall life cultivation by allowing them to enter a state of golden light. The focus is more on entering the state of golden light than on the intensity of the golden light itself.
The same applies to the Triple Rebirth of the Three Ones Sect. However, the state created by the Triple Rebirth is far more complex than that of the Golden Light Mantra. Correspondingly, the effects produced by the Triple Rebirth are also far greater than those of the Golden Light Mantra.
However, Zhang Zhiwei immediately deduced from this that the legend of being able to ascend to immortality by cultivating the third level of the Reverse Life Triple Stage was most likely false. No matter how exquisite your Reverse Life cultivation was, it was merely a technique to improve cultivation level; it couldn't lead to the heavens.
Lu Jin listened to Zhang Zhiwei's evaluation of the Triple Rebirth skill again; this was not the first time he had heard Zhang Zhiwei say such a thing.
He had already heard it once before, back in that night at the Lu family compound, but at that time he was still immersed in the dream that the Sanyi Sect was the number one Xuan Sect in the world, and was unwilling to believe Zhang Zhiwei's words.
Lu Jin thought of Si Chong and Cheng Zhen who had passed away. If the San Yi Sect had just been an ordinary sect and had not clung to the title of the head of the Xuanmen, would the San Yi Sect still be around today?
After leaving the Lu family compound, Zhang Zhiwei returned to Longhu Mountain. His reputation spread throughout the world of supernatural beings. In the following years, he gradually took over the responsibilities of his master, Zhang Jingqing, and began teaching martial arts to all the disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion.
Having never experienced setbacks in his life, Zhang Zhiwei's personality began to grow increasingly lazy. To help Zhang Zhiwei understand his problems, Zhang Jingqing sent him down the mountain to live in the secular world for a period of time before he returned.
[While Zhang Zhiwei was descending the mountain, his junior brother Zhang Huaiyi became sworn brothers with Wugensheng, the leader of the Quanxing Sect, and Zhang Huaiyi was also hunted down by the entire world of supernatural beings.]
In an attempt to find Zhang Huaiyi, he and his junior brother Tian Jinzhong descended the mountain to search for him, but ultimately failed.
[Zhang Zhiwei, who returned to the mountains, ultimately became Zhang Jingqing's only remaining disciple qualified to inherit the position of Celestial Master. The other disciples who were eligible to inherit the position either died during the War of Resistance or left the Celestial Master's Mansion on their own.]
Ultimately, Zhang Zhiwei took over the position of Celestial Master from Zhang Jingqing, becoming the sixty-fifth Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion.
Zhang Zhiwei, who became a Celestial Master, had ten disciples in total, among whom his third disciple, Liang Youyi, passed away due to illness.
According to the custom of all Celestial Masters in the Celestial Master's Mansion sharing the surname Zhang, currently only the eldest disciple Zhang Qianhe and the tenth disciple Zhang Lingyu are qualified to succeed as the next Celestial Master.
Among them, Zhang Lingyu has the highest probability of inheriting the Celestial Master title.
Zhang Chulan from Na Du Tong was also surprised to hear that Zhang Lingyu was the most likely to inherit the position of Celestial Master.
I didn't expect that Taoist priest to have such a high status.
After expressing his feelings, Zhang Chulan immediately clicked on the next video.
Two Heroes
[Ding Shian of Quanxing and Na Ruhu of the Ten Elders are two of the "Heroes" among the "One Supreme, Two Heroes, Three Corpse Demons, and Four Madmen." They are known as the two strongest superhumans in the world besides Zhang Zhiwei, who is at the supreme level.]
[Of course, this statement isn't entirely accurate. Battles between superhumans aren't simply a matter of numerical superiority. Although they are among the strongest superhumans in the world, they don't possess Zhang Zhiwei's dominance. They can still be defeated when facing certain special superhumans.]
There wasn't much inside information about them, and compared to others, their lives weren't particularly difficult.
Although Ding Shian and Na Ruhu were both listed as heroes, and one even belonged to the Quanxing Sect while the other was one of the Ten Elders, their relationship was not tense; on the contrary, they had a deep friendship.
[Both of them are like the cases I mentioned in my previous videos; they didn't possess powerful, unparalleled martial arts techniques, yet they both ultimately became renowned extraordinary individuals.]
Ding Shian grew up learning various martial arts. His first teacher was Bi Yuan from Biyou Village. Bi Yuan was not a powerful superhuman; his skills were merely the common "Ghost Needle" technique.
Although it sounds intimidating, it's just a common martial arts technique, capable of performing simple acupuncture and sealing acupoints.
However, once you remove the needle, the sealed acupoints will release on their own, rendering it largely useless in combat; it's a rather ineffective method.
As the saying goes, those who eat at many people's homes have good interpersonal relationships, and those who learn many skills are good talents. Ding Shian is such a good talent.
After learning the "Ghost Needle," he learned many other different martial arts techniques elsewhere, including the Splitting Palm, Terrain Immortal, Taoist Finger Techniques, Body-Protecting Escape Light, and Inner Sect Cultivation Methods...
Ding Shian learned many scattered methods.
Using these seemingly ordinary methods, he gradually built a considerable reputation in the world of supernatural beings.
Ding Shian's reason for joining Quanxing was also quite ridiculous. In the following days, Ding Shian gradually discovered that perhaps because he was popular, the other members of the Extraordinary were unwilling to fight him with their full strength.
To ensure that other individuals wouldn't hesitate to fight him, Ding Shian resolutely joined the universally hated Quanxing sect, becoming a member of it.
Although Ding Shian has joined Quanxing, if you ever encounter him, don't worry too much. He won't do evil like other supernatural beings; he only has one purpose in joining Quanxing.
That means that when someone attacks him again, he no longer needs to hold back.
"Le, what kind of strange reason is this?"
"Oh dear, it's a pity no one told me. I ran into him by chance at the market last time, and I was so scared that I ran far away. I should have gone up and taken a picture with him back then!"
