Chapter 284: Divine Monk, Golden Basin Hand-Washing Ritual (1)
The current abbot of Shaolin was Grand Master Mu Jin.
Unlike Wudang, where the disciples of the Mu line have mostly retired, Shaolin’s Mu line was still active.
This was likely because Shaolin’s hierarchy was more closely spaced than other sects, similar to the Azure Forest.
Nonetheless, even the Mu line monks were on the verge of retirement due to their age.
One by one, the venerable monks have begun entering Nirvana — in other words, passing away from old age and illness.
The current strongest fist master and the current Murim Alliance Leader, the Divine Monk, was also known by the moniker Ailing Monk.
Among the active monks of the Mu line, only the abbot, the Dharma Hall, the Sutra Pavilion, and the Disciplinary Hall Heads remained, aside from the Council of Elders.
Of these, the Disciplinary Hall Head held a crucial role as he oversaw the monastic laws of Shaolin.
His Buddhist name was Mu Song.
