Zhang daoling
Zhang Daoling is a celestial master who started the first Taoist school. In some perspectives, he is found riding a tiger. One day, Lao Tzu appeared to Zhang and said the world was ending and those following him will live into the next life. So Zhang went around and eventually started a Taoist school. The idea that Zhang Daoling ascended into heaven instead of dying is tentative.
