Zhang Sanfeng, known as Junbao (also known as "Quanyi"), Wudang Taoist, Taoist Sanfengzi, Wudang Sect Founding Patriarch.

Zhang Sanfeng is the Taoist Inner Dan Patriarch and Taoist Boxing Patriarch, and is the master of Dan Taoist cultivation, advocating "self-seeking for happiness and self-creation for life". In addition to the Wudang Sanfeng faction, which is one of the nine factions in the world, Zhang Sanfeng created at least 17 sects, including the Wangwushan Sloppy School, the Sanfeng Natural School, the Sanfeng School, the Sanfeng Authentic Natural School, the Rixin School, the Penglai School, the Tanta School, the Hidden Immortal School, the Wudang Dan School, and the Yulong School.

The rulers of the past dynasties respected Zhang Sanfeng, and many emperors of the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties also looked for him, hoping to get his true inheritance.

Ming Yingzong gave him the title of "Tongwei Manifestation Zhenren"; Ming Xianzong gave him the title of "Taoguang Shangzhi Zhenxian"; and Ming Shizong gave him the title of "Qingxu Yuan Miao Zhenjun".

Although generally speaking, Zhang Sanfeng's official record is that he was born in the Southern Song Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Lizong and disappeared in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and he lived to be 147 years old. However, the folk legend about him has not been broken.

According to legend, Zhang Sanfeng's last appearance was recorded in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty and one of his mentors, the pure yang immortal Lu Dongbin, appeared on Mount Emei to guide a Taoist priest named Li Hanxu to cultivate, and later Li Hanxu founded the Western School of Cultivation Theory.

Zhu Shifeng, a great Confucian in the Qing Dynasty, commented on Zhang Sanfeng and said that there are countless practitioners in ancient and modern times, and Zhang Sanfeng, the creator of heaven and earth.

Zhang Sanfeng's arrival was something that everyone present did not expect, even the current head of the Wudang Sanfeng faction.

Of course, this is not to say that people have any disrespect for Zhang Sanfeng. On the contrary, it is precisely because people respect Zhang Sanfeng so much that they didn't expect him to come at all.

After all, people respect Zhang Sanfeng, not because of his wisdom and virtue.

Although Zhang Sanfeng's own open-mindedness is indeed very admirable, in the world of the cultivation realm, where the strong are the truth, if you want to gain the respect of others from the heart, you can only conquer others in terms of strength.

Strength.

Although, judging from the current situation, Xia Chengyu, who is about to cross the catastrophe, should be the number one master in the cultivation realm at present.

However, no matter how this number one changes, there will always be a hidden number one in the cultivation world, and who this number one is, everyone has an amazing tacit understanding, that is Zhang Sanfeng.

Mitutoyo is a real immortal!

Generally speaking, when a cultivator cultivates to the stage of "refining the gods and returning to the void", that is, the tribulation period of Dan cultivation, the virtual realm of Fu cultivation, and the sword sealing stage of sword cultivation, they will have to accept the test of the ninety-nine tribulations, and after success, they will enter the stage of "refining the void and merging the path". This stage is called the "Mahayana period" by Dan Xiu, the "Zhijing" by Fu Xiu, and the "no sword" by sword cultivation.

To a certain extent, after successfully crossing the tribulation, the cultivator is already an immortal with immortal power, but the immortal power in the body is not pure, not so much that such an existence is a true immortal, but that this is an excess between the immortal and the cultivator.

But in any case, the strength of this realm is still recognized, and even in the decree issued by the immortal realm, the status of cultivators in the realm of "refining the gods and returning to the void" is also recognized, and in addition to the four true immortal realms of Tianxian, Golden Immortal, Taiyi Golden Immortal, and Daluo Golden Immortal, they are also solemnly given the name of "Earth Immortal". Although, compared to this official title, they prefer to call themselves "flying immortals".

And Zhang Sanfeng is such an immortal in the realm of "refining the void and combining the way".

It can even be said that he is the only cultivator in the Nether Realm who has successfully survived the Heavenly Tribulation in these hundreds of years.

If the catastrophe is compared to the college entrance examination, then Zhang Sanfeng is the top student in the college entrance examination.

And he has already graduated from a prestigious school for a long time, and he has almost forgotten his studies......

"On this day next year, Qingyun will go, but he will laugh at the busy world. ”

Do you think that an old-timer who has graduated for many years will run back to watch the college entrance examination in the second year like a freshman who has just gone through the college entrance examination?

But Zhang Sanfeng really came.

Of course, with Zhang Sanfeng's strength and status, of course, it would not be for such a naïve reason, but why he came here, is it also because the cultivation realm has not encountered this kind of thing for too long, and everyone has no way of knowing.

Because, the catastrophe has begun.

……

Dark clouds began to gather in the sky, at first just wisps, like misty smoke, but then, like a swarm of insects that devoured everything, and like an iron horse sweeping the world, large black clouds covered the clear sky, and fine electric snakes loomed behind the thick clouds.

Before it began, everyone outside the tribulation area felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

In order to resist this kind of coercion, for a while, all kinds of magic weapons came and went, and even suppressed and hideous beast roars came one after another—but some demon clan monks were forced to show their original forms because they couldn't resist the pressure of the Heavenly Tribulation.

This is just watching everyone's feelings, what kind of pressure Xia Chengyu is facing in the center, this thought feels terrible just thinking about it.

Before it even officially began, the power of the Tribulation was terrifying.

But Xia Chengyu still stood straight, and although his handsome face could not be said to be without pressure, he did not show any panic at all. Even in the face of such hardships, his figure has been erected, like a sword pointing to the sky!

"Boom !!!"

There was no foreshadowing, and there was no warning, and the first thunder was cleaved like this.

But the next scene made everyone's jaws drop all over the ground.

Zhang Sanfeng looked at everything in front of him thoughtfully......
