Chapter 136 - 95: There Really Is Something! File a Case!
The interview video from New City News went viral, especially when Patriarch Chen finished saying he believed in science, and then immediately climbed up the roof with wall-climbing and roof-soaring.
Everyone was stunned, feeling like they were being fooled.
"You say you believe in science, and this is how you climb roofs?"
Some were fired up, recalling their childhood martial arts dreams with a small bamboo stick, couldn’t resist following Patriarch Chen, eagerly watching his videos, only to be confused by abstract content.
Footage of baiting stray dogs with meat and calling them Dog Demons was extremely incongruous with the roof-climbing scene.
Naturally, some felt the scene was familiar, as there seemed to be a Wudang Daoist who told people to believe in science, then immediately jumped from 20 meters high.
Although this Daoist flipped face down due to rain during his first jump, still, to fall from a 5-meter high spot and get up unscathed to complete a 20-meter jump the next day proved quite a feat.
If it were someone else, falling even from 2 meters might send them to the hospital with serious injuries.
As people thought of this, they heard Patriarch Chen’s junior sister explain, "Actually, my senior’s Qinggong cultivation and that of Wudang’s Daoist Chen both come from the Taoist Sect’s transmission method."
This immediately created a sense of connection for people, is there really a link?
Both of them practiced the same Qinggong transmission method!
But wait, is this ’believe in science’ also a Taoist Sect’s tradition?
And this ’believe in science’ then showing off, is it also your Taoist Sect’s practice?
For a while, many couldn’t help but check Patriarch Chen’s Tiao Yin account, and also ended up commenting on the Wudang Daoist’s Tiao Yin account.
Wudang.
Daoist Chen was meditating and cultivating, when he finished, he picked up his phone and saw numerous notifications on his Tiao Yin.
Just then, a disciple rushed in, "Master, you’ve gone viral online, quickly check it out!"
Hearing this, Daoist Chen roughly understood why there were so many notifications on Tiao Yin—it must have been because he gained popularity online for some reason.
However, clicking to see the comments left him perplexed:
"Daoist Chen, do you accept adults in your summer classes?"
"Daoist, I want to become your disciple, just teach me Qinggong!"
"Daoist, I want to learn Qinggong!"
"..."
The pace felt strange, though the incident of jumping down 20 meters gained him considerable fame, there were also many mocking him, mostly saying it’s just parkour, even that he wasn’t even as good as parkour.
As for the real specifics, he wouldn’t explain, as it’s all about fitness anyway.
Even at the height of that incident’s popularity, there weren’t so many people wanting to learn Qinggong from him.
This was quite odd.
Seeing many had @ him, he quickly clicked in and saw a news interview video titled "Believe in Science and Wall-Climbing and Roof-Soaring."
He was curious and clicked to view.
Seeing the content about cows and dogs initially surprised him, and then watching Patriarch Chen soar up to the 5-meter high rooftop had him agape.
So incredible?
But the next moment, he was stunned—the video had a pretty girl claiming Patriarch Chen’s Qinggong was the same as his.
Oh my god!
He felt as if something had hit his back.
This kind of wall-climbing and roof-soaring was beyond him.
That’s much harder than his 20-meter level 3 jump.
Moreover, he knew internally, what the other practiced was certainly different.
"Master, I didn’t know your Qinggong could be practiced to such a remarkable degree!" The disciple looked at him, filled with admiration.
Seeing this, Daoist knew: whether it’s similar or not didn’t matter.
Given this, it must be the same.
Rarely seeing such traffic, he instructed his disciple to help him record: "There are lots of private messages in the background asking about Qinggong. What Patriarch Chen practiced is far stronger than mine, I can’t help it, age has made me weak, and I missed the prime period for Qinggong practice..."
"If trained younger, with muscles, resilience, and bones in the best state, they would surely be stronger than me..."
Without refuting, nor affirming, this self-deprecating approach effectively raised the status of Wudang Martial Arts.
So, after the recording, he immediately uploaded it to Tiao Yin, with over 2 million followers, the video gained many views quickly.
This video made a lot of sense; Daoist Chen aged, definitely unable to showcase Qinggong efficiently, like Patriarch Chen.
Aging led to missing the best cultivation period, failing to reach Patriarch Chen’s level was normal, those martial arts novels depicted similar settings.
This garnered support from many enthusiasts, proving that the Taoist Sect truly embodied martial arts.
Not only Daoist Chen but many Taoist sect heads noticed this news, those posting videos on Tiao Yin didn’t miss this chance, those practicing Taiyin Long Fist immediately uploaded their practice videos.
For a moment, this obscure Taoist Sect’s conventional fist technique became widely known.
As for those without Taiyin Long Fist, sect residents engaged in Tiao Yin promotion just started filming cow or dog videos directly.
