## Desheng Shengli

**Desheng Shengli day Jinlong Shongshan** is a legendary master of oriental martial arts and a great Shaolin monk, famous in the Old Omniverse and many parts of the New Omniverse. Little is really known about him other than the fact that all the monks in the Shaolin Dojo on the Heaven Island study and practice in accordance to the handbook left to them by Master Shengli.

It is also known that Yongsheng wei Jianyu (and his colleagues) knew Desheng Shengli personally a few chromosomes before his tragic and untimely death.

## Skills and Omnicombat

According to legends and tales, as well as personal disciples of the master, Deshen Shengli day Jinlong Shoushan knew a huge number of martial arts and various styles, including: shotokan, kyokushinkai, serin-ryu (karate-do); shaolin, wudang, emei (kung fu); aikikai, yoshinkai, iwama-ryu (aikido); chang-hong, songam (taekwondo); judo; jiujitsu; kickboxing and others. Before his death, Desheng Shengli began to study ninjutsu, but never managed to comprehend and master the true technique in its entirety.

Nevertheless, Master Shengli managed to combine all the martial arts he had studied throughout his life into one unified mixed martial art. He describes it in his three-volume handbook titled "Omnicombat", which is also the name of the martial art itself. **Omnicombat** (from Latin *omni-:* *embracing everyone, spreading to everyone, to everything*) is the so-called "universal" style of hand-to-hand *and* armed combat, which, according to the handbook, is useful in any corner of the Omniverse and will allow one to defeat any enemy, regardless of their origin and skills.

## Other info

Desheng Shengli often fought with members of the criminal organization known as the Vindicators for an unexplained reason. He said that he witnessed the moment when the Vindicator clan broke up into smaller groups and gangs, which coincided with the period of reconstruction of the Chromic structure and the formation of the New Omniverse. From his stories, Yongsheng wei Jianyu, along with his colleagues, could assume that the Nuggets are actually reborn and modernised Vindicators, but since there are almost no remains of the Vindicators left in the Omniverse, no one can confirm or refute these theories.

## Trivia

* Desheng Shengli was a Highest Chromic creature, which meant he was able to manipulate basic Chromic structures, summon lower Chromic entities and use his Chromic abilities effectively;
* Shengli's favourite melee weapon is the Japanese daishō combination, preferrably with a black waxed scabbard.
* Master Shengli's ritualistic chromosomes are speculated to have been multi-coloured, but one particular silver-blue chromosome of his is kept on a display on the third floor of the Shaolin Dojo. It was one of the few local artifacts that were left untouched by the Nuggets' raid on the Dojo;
* It is known that Desheng Shengli either never knew/met Lord Naiku or the latter wouldn't have found the former alive by the latter's mature age. However, Shengli agreed with the ancient Nuggets' ideology and prophecy of The Unique One returning which would bring the Omniverse absolute destruction. This was, no doubt, a prophecy about Satoshi Naiku's ultimate curse which was to drive him to become the Dark Lord.
