He first learned of the title Immortal-ascending Taoist from a huge stone stele in the Falling Clouds Grotto Heavens.
The previous Falling Clouds Sect Master attempted to lead the whole sect to ascend to the Upper World with his Earth Immortal body. Yet, influenced by the Great Schism, he was met with divine punishment leading to the eradication of the entire sect.

According to the former Falling Clouds Sect Master, the Immortal-ascending Taoist was a peerless genius, divined by the Sect founder after countless efforts, who could rescue the Falling Clouds Sect in times of crisis.
