Chapter 872

The second private room in the South District.

Bai Qinger curled her lips in disappointment and said, "Sigh! I thought the head of the list would be another Divine Beast family. Boring."

Wanwan, however, revealed a solemn expression and whispered, "The person on the list is Old Immortal Nanhua. From this point of view, that ancient immortal cultivator of the Tianmen is truly a Martial Saint-level powerhouse."

"The Palace Master of the Search God Palace, the Tianmen Master, and the Demon Heart Palace Master—now it is known that there are three Martial Saints in the Great Han Jianghu."

"But I have a premonition that the number of Martial Saints in the Great Han Jianghu is definitely more than just these three."

Zhu Yuyan said with narrowed eyes.

Although the Great Han Jianghu has continuously announced the Martial Emperor List and the Semi-Saint List.

But this did not make the strength of the Great Han Jianghu clear; instead, it gave her an increasingly unfathomable feeling.

Just like the first and second places on the Semi-Saint List, Old Immortal Nanhua and the Water God Ancestor.

If not for Su Chen's exposure, who would have thought that the Great Han Jianghu was hiding such powerhouses?

Thinking this, Zhu Yuyan could not help but gaze even more intently at the Bai Yu Platform.

What kind of secrets are hidden in the Great Han Jianghu? We can only wait for Su Chen to reveal them.

The fourth private room in the South District.

Manlou unfolded his folding fan and smiled, "Interesting, the head of the Great Han Semi-Saint List is actually another reclusive master."

"I have heard of the divine power of the Great Virtuous Teacher, Zhang Jiao, many times before, but I just took it as a joke."

"But now it seems that perhaps I was the one sitting in a well looking at the sky."

Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile and gazed at the Bai Yu Platform.

He was very curious about the background of this Old Immortal Nanhua and what kind of immortal arts Zhang Jiao obtained from him.

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen shook his folding fan and, without waiting for the discussion to end, said in a clear voice:

"Speaking of the origin of this Old Immortal Nanhua, it is truly extraordinary."

"You fellow Jianghu travelers should know that among the hundred schools of thought, the Daoist school can be ranked in the top three."

"And in the thousands of years of Daoist history, there are only two recognized saints: one is Laozi, and the other is Zhuangzi."

"These two are the ancestors of the Daoist gate, their merits participating in creation."

"And this Old Immortal Nanhua is the reincarnation of that Zhuangzi."

"Everyone knows the story of 'Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly'."

"But few know that this 'Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly' is also a heaven-reaching profound technique, close to the path of reincarnation."

"Three thousand years ago, Zhuang Zhou had a dream, dreaming that he became a wandering Daoist priest named Nanhua."

"Therefore, Zhuang Zhou is Nanhua, and Nanhua is Zhuang Zhou."

"This is not a true reincarnation through the underworld, but a reincarnation supernatural power created by Zhuangzi himself after comprehending all Daoist profound techniques."

"The mysteries within are difficult to describe in full."

"Now, Old Immortal Nanhua is trapped in the quasi-saint realm, which is precisely because he is lost and does not know his own identity."

"When he realizes his past identity, it will be the time for him to return to the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm, invincible in the world."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, he is temporarily ranked first on the Semi-Saint List."

As Su Chen's voice fell, the hall exploded completely.

Everyone revealed an expression of extreme horror.

They originally thought that this Old Immortal Nanhua was just a reclusive immortal cultivator like Xiaoyao Zi.

But they did not expect his background to be so great.

He is the reincarnation of the Daoist saint Zhuangzi from three thousand years ago.

This shock was no small matter.

The hundred schools of thought have existed for a long time, and each school has produced saints.

For example, Confucius and Mencius of the Confucian school are the two recognized Confucian saints, worshipped by hundreds of millions of Confucian disciples.

And this Zhuangzi is the saint of the Daoist lineage, ranked alongside Laozi as the dual saints of the Daoist school.

His status in the Daoist school is as noble as Mencius is to the Confucian school.

But no one expected that Zhuangzi was not only a great Daoist scholar but also a powerhouse at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm.

That is a Quasi-Emperor, an existence even higher than the peak of the Martial Saint realm.

Only one step away from reaching the true realm of shattering the void and ascending directly.

What shocked everyone even more was that this household-name Daoist saint had actually comprehended a heaven-reaching profound technique that could reincarnate in the human world and was still in the human world today.

It's just that he changed his identity, named Old Immortal Nanhua, walking in the human world for three hundred years.

Nanhua is Zhuang Zhou, and Zhuang Zhou is Nanhua.

When Old Immortal Nanhua has a sudden enlightenment, it will be the time for Zhuangzi to return to the human world, directly restoring his terrifying cultivation at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm.

In an instant, everyone in the hall began to discuss:

"Heavens! Did I, did I hear correctly? Old Immortal Nanhua is actually the reincarnation of the Daoist saint Zhuangzi?"

"What a terrifying Zhuangzi! To think he was a great power at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm. That is an existence only one step away from shattering the void."

"This is not reincarnation in the traditional sense; it is more like the human soldier-disintegration of Lu Zu in the Snowy Blade Jianghu, and he could have an enlightenment of his past memories and cultivation at any time."

"That's right! Hong Xixiang had a sudden enlightenment and became invincible in the world. If Old Immortal Nanhua can have a sudden enlightenment, he will also become the strongest person in the human world!"

"To think that the human soldier-disintegration mentioned by Mr. Su is actually true. At least Zhuangzi mastered such a world-shaking supernatural power."

"Is Mr. Su joking? My Daoist saint Zhuangzi has a day to reappear in the human world?"

"Mr. Su has vast supernatural powers. Since he said so, it must be true. This Great Han Jianghu is too terrifying."

"I am truly convinced by the Great Han Jianghu. Not only is it the place where the four great Divine Beasts reside, but even the reincarnation of a Daoist saint is there."

"Terrifying! Does this not mean that a powerhouse at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm could appear in the Great Han Jianghu at any time?"

"That is the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm, the most powerful existence under the Martial Emperor, and one step further would be direct ascension."

"Haha! Heaven bless the Daoist gate! When Zhuangzi returns to the human world, our Daoist school will surely dominate the human world."

"Where is the Palace Master of the Search God Palace? Do you still want to destroy the world?"
