Background / History

Fang Xuan is a transmigrator born into the Fang Family, Dragon Abyss Province's leading clan in the Great Li Dynasty. Initially only a Technique Realm cultivator, he seeks eternal life and regards cultivation, resources, and encounters in other worlds as the means to build an unrivaled foundation 2.

His unusual method of advancement involves locating and killing alternate selves in parallel worlds. Their deaths strengthen not only his body and qi but also his comprehension, soul, and capacity for Magic Power 3 12 449. This method first propels him through the Fleshly Body realms after he kills Ren Qianxing, whose identity he briefly assumes 9 10.

After proving his ability in the Fang Family and protecting Fang Han from Fang Qingwei, Fang Xuan receives his father's support to enter the Immortal Feather Sect assessment 20 22. He passes by physically tearing apart a Divine Strength puppet, becomes an outer disciple, and later rises from outer disciple to True Disciple with exceptional speed 29 30 168.

At Yuhua Sect, Fang Xuan builds Mystic Peak into a center of influence. He shares resources, cultivation opportunities, pills, and Mystical Powers with allies and disciples, while becoming a rival to Hua Tiandu for influence within the sect 240 242 244.

Appearance

Fang Xuan is described as outwardly unremarkable despite possessing immense physical force; his ordinary-looking palms can break stone tablets and split rocks 10.

• His bearing becomes increasingly profound after major breakthroughs, described by Fang Qingxue as mountain-like and unfathomable 144.
• At the Yuan Gang Realm, overflowing Magic Power crystallizes his hair and fingernails, giving them a jade-like appearance and sharp sword-qi edge 120.
• His Yin Yang Realm body is resilient enough to break flying swords with bare hands; ordinary Spirit Item flying swords cannot cut his skin 136.

Personality

Fang Xuan is ambitious, pragmatic, and intensely focused on eternal life. Titles such as patriarch or emperor do not distract him from his goal of becoming an Immortal King, and he considers power the necessary protection against fate and stronger enemies 22 242.

He is calculating in the use of opportunities and resources, selecting techniques based on what he can support and concealing valuable arts when revealing them would endanger his family 22 77. He can be ruthless toward enemies, alternate selves, and those he considers threats, including killing Emperor Zhao Yun and Hong Xuanji 54 187.

Despite this ruthlessness, Fang Xuan consistently protects those he recognizes as his own. He intervenes for Fang Han, supports Fang Qingxue's cultivation, guides the Fang Family's younger generation, and rewards disciples who aid him 20 166 240 572.
