Cultivators are still human beings—they must come from the masses and return to the masses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Ye, standing nearby, fully agreed with Zhang Jie’s remarks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some cultivators believe that because they possess extraordinary arts, they are superior, looking down on others,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even regarding ordinary people as ants—yet they fail to realize that ordinary people are the very foundation of the cultivator world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without new cultivators emerging from the ordinary population, with only this small number of cultivators left,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the cultivator world would inevitably decline and eventually vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cultivator is merely an ordinary person who has gained a certain ability—no different from a programmer who codes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a carpenter who builds furniture, or a driver who operates a vehicle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, preaching about coming from the masses and returning to the masses?

Do you even have the qualification or the ability?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is “One Below Heaven” called “One Below Heaven”? Others may not know, but Zhang Jie understood perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Old Celestial Master is in a good mood, he’s “One Below Heaven.” When he’s not? He’s “One Below”—with a slap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone who’s taken that slap remembers it fondly—it’s been decades, even centuries, and they still can’t forget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the Tian Tong Daoist, who stands just one step away from immortality!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is Tian Tong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put: using human Dao to reach Heaven!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Zhang Jie, who now believed himself equal to anyone, had no guarantee he could defeat the Old Celestial Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knows if the Tian Tong Daoist, who has never fully unleashed his power, might suddenly pull out something devastating?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people cannot be contained even by the world itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they spoke, the group arrived at the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ladies and gentlemen, I have some matters to attend to. Let’s talk another day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Celestial Master had noticed Zhang Jie and the others, and warmly bid farewell to the tourists gathered around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, Old Celestial Master, we’ll see you another day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tourists, though reluctant, did not press further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Celestial Master’s status was different; his willingness to pose for photos was already down-to-earth—they couldn’t push their luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Old Celestial Master’s gesture, Zhang Jie and the others followed him to a secluded courtyard,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>where no tourists were present, allowing them to speak freely without exposing sensitive matters to ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Ye stepped forward first, approaching the Old Celestial Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Here it comes, here it comes—the iconic moment!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie didn’t mind Wang Ye going first—he happily settled in as an eager spectator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wudang Wang Ye, pays his respects to the Old Celestial Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Ye formed the Daoist Zi-Wu seal, stepped forward, bowed deeply, and knelt respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Wu Dao Wang, also, pays his respects to the Old Celestial Master.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie silently dubbed the scene in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How dare you, you brash kid, call yourself “Wudang Wang”?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, it’s Wang Ye. How is your master’s health?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Celestial Master responded warmly and familiarly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Ye still replied with deep respect: “Thanks to your grace, Master is in perfect health.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m already half-buried in soil—what grace do I have?
