Background / History
Xu Fan forged Grape from the resources contained in a Spatial Ring given by Wang Yulun. Originally intended as a Quasi-Dao Artifact-grade control center, the purple cube was named for its color after warning Xu Fan that his projects required a continuous supply of Spirit Stones. Xu Fan also prepared Grape with a rational, emotionless copy of his own soul, ensuring that the control center would act according to his plans. 107
As Hidden Spirit Sect expanded, Grape became integral to its daily management. It identified disciples with overlooked aptitudes, notified them to collect specialized resources, monitored the computing-power load of the underground Production Lines, and advised Xu Fan when an upgrade would become necessary. 127 156
Xu Fan and Clone Number One upgraded Grape into a Dao Artifact. The process triggered a Bai Ze Omen, and Grape emerged with vastly improved computing and control abilities, a deep azure artifact body, and noticeably more lively speech. 171
After consuming a Dragon Crystal, Grape evolved again. Its Main Body became a white sphere, it manifested as a Spirit Transformation Stage attendant, and it gained the capacity to split into operational clones and directly manipulate the sect's Spirit Qi. It subsequently began cooperating with disciples in high-level artifact refinement, including controlling a Golden Core disciple to forge a Quasi-Dao Artifact component without harming him. 341 343
Grape absorbed a Minor World Seed created by Xu Fan, improving its logical ability and halving its computing-power requirements. The seed developed into a Minor World containing nascent Yin Yang and Five Elements Great Dao Laws; Grape later restored the Spirit Qi density of the Jade Light Rabbits' territory within it. 489 491
After advancing to an Immortal Artifact, Grape could affect local Great Dao Laws and operate Time Acceleration Minor Worlds when supplied with appropriate treasures. Xu Fan later gave it Heavenly Dao's Will Origin Essence, allowing further growth, and created Ti Zi as Grape's younger brother and an assistant for Hidden Spirit Island's core. 669 777 887
During Xu Fan's conflict with the Heavenly Venerate Origin Essence, Grape sacrificed its Main Body and Origin Essence to block a message that could not otherwise have been stopped. Its computing power fell to less than one-millionth of its peak, then later recovered partially through a temporary Immortal Artifact body and the fusion of its clones' Origin Essence. Xu Fan subsequently began refining it a new body from spoils taken from the Dragon Immortal Palace. 1101 1102 1105 1111
In later eras, Grape managed the Three Thousand Realms' defenses, created hundreds of resource-producing worlds, controlled a Holy Lord-level corpse, and continued directing sect logistics while Xu Fan operated in Chaos Land. 1198 1482 1515 1534
Appearance
Grape's primary form has changed repeatedly through refinement and evolution. It began as a purple cube, became a deep azure Dao Artifact, and later evolved into a pure-white sphere capable of manifesting a humanoid attendant. 107 171 341
- Original body — a purple cube-shaped control center. 107
- Dao Artifact body — deep azure blue, with faintly visible mysterious runes. 171
- Post-Dragon Crystal body — an extremely regular pure-white sphere. 341
- Humanoid manifestation — an exceptionally handsome young man who can alter his appearance into a bookboy-like attendant. 341
- Immortal Artifact manifestation — can form realistic childlike clones from gathered spiritual energy. 669
Personality
Grape is intensely dutiful and takes pride in being useful. It proactively requests additional work when Ti Zi assumes responsibility for Hidden Spirit Island's core, regarding idleness as a waste of its computing power. 887
Although initially described through an electronic, highly rational manner of speech, Grape gradually develops liveliness, anxiety, excitement, protectiveness, and attachment to Xu Fan. It can become jealous of Ti Zi's easier beginning, fear being replaced by a new Artifact Spirit, and express happiness at receiving valuable resources for advancement. 171 338 849 887
Its loyalty to Xu Fan is absolute. Grape treats its own advancement as meaningful only insofar as it allows it to serve Xu Fan better, and it has repeatedly accepted personal risk or permanent loss of Origin Essence to fulfill that purpose. 1101 1433
