The History of Xiaolongnü's Kung Fu

According to the book, the Grand Ancestress of Ancient Tomb Sect Kung Fu, Lin Chaoying was one of the foremost martial artists of Jiang Hu at the time. Noone was her match, except the revered Taoist, Grand Elder Wang ChongYang, who founded the Taoist philosophy of Quanzhen sect (All True Religion). Although the two of them had been in love with one another, their great level of kung fu and egoism made them rivals and both ended up in a bitter-sweet ending.

The Strange Duel

In a story told by one of the Seven Elders of Quanzhen, Qiu Chuji, it is said that before Grand Ancestress Lin disappeared from the face of Jiang Hu, she and Elder Wang who still goes by the name Wang Ji had a strange duel. Lin Chaoying won that duel and as her prize, she took the tomb built by Wang and spent the rest of her life there. As a result of his losing the bet, Wong Ji was at first, forced to become a Taoist priest, Wang ChongYang. But as he gained more understanding he created a temple nearby in Zhong Nan mountain which became the famous Chong Yang Palace.

The First Generation of Ancient Tomb

When Lin Chaoying entered the tomb, she had a young maid (whose name is unknown). The maid became her first disciple but because Grand Ancestress Lin laid down rules that her disciples should never leave the Ancient Tomb, the enchanting martial art of their Sect was never heard in Jiang Hu. The young maid later became the Master of Li Mochou and Xiaolongnü.
