Wang Chuyi (1142–1217) was a Taoist master and philosopher. He was one of "The Seven Perfect Ones of the North" or "The Seven Real Taoists",[1] terms used for disciples of Wang Chongyang.

He resided in a cave in Mount Kunyu as a Taoist hermit. He founded the Yushan lineage of the Quanzhen School. According to legend, he resurrected a person by covering his ears and shouting "The Underground Ministry Must Not Receive Him."[2]
