Founder of the Sanctum Of Sages and direct disciple of Kong shi. He was one of the ten strongest disciples, "Ten Apostles", that Kong shi had.
Ancient Sage Bo Shang is the second master teacher after Kong shi to comprehend Eye of Insight, and he even created a set of optic arts for it called the Divine Eyes of the Ninth Netherworld[1].
“Ancient Sage Bo Shang is neither the most famous nor the most powerful of Kong shi’s direct disciples, but he possesses an extraordinary ability in imparting knowledge and ideology to others. It has been several ten thousand years since the Sanctum of Sages was founded, and despite the trial of time, Kong shi’s ideology is still perfectly passed down from generation to generation. Students there are able to feel the very spirit of the World’s Teacher, as well as his deep desire to bring mankind to greater heights! Learning in such an environment could open up one’s mind, allowing one to view the society and the entire world from a higher perspective from before, thus giving them an insight into how they could better use their strength to bring about greater prosperity for mankind. This is something that no clan or blessed land is able to do!” -Zhao Xingmo[2].
He is stronger than Ancient Sage Qiu Wu.
