The Du Chong 杜冲
Paul PengShare
Du Chong was a native of Haojing (present-day Chang'an, Shaanxi) during the Western Zhou Dynasty.
When he was just twenty years old, he studied under the True Person of Wenshi. When the True Person went to Shu (the Sichuan region), Du Chong stayed and lived in a thatched tower.

According to Volume 9 of Lishi Zhenxian Tidao Tongjian (Comprehensive Mirror of True Immortals Through the Ages Who Embodied the Dao) and The Stele of Biographies of Louguan's Founding Masters: King Mu (of the Western Zhou Dynasty) yearned for immortality, built numerous Taoist temples, and invited Du Chong and six others to be Taoist priests. After achieving success in cultivation and refinement, he gained insight into all the wonderful principles of the Dao. Later generations honored him as the True Person of Taiji of Wangwu Mountain.
