Background

Yu Feng was an ordinary teenager trapped in a lethal cycle of rebirth. Bandits murdered his parents, and every time he died afterward, a fragment of the Immortal Ascension Ladder embedded in his body reversed time to the same starting point. After witnessing his parents' deaths tens of thousands of times, he became numb to the tragedy and treated hiding in the cellar as routine survival. 262

Across his prior loops, Yu Feng gathered Qi tens of thousands of times, established his foundation thousands of times, formed a Golden Core nearly a hundred times, and reached the Nascent Soul Stage once. His experience gave him extensive practical knowledge of lower realms, but his poor aptitude and extreme misfortune repeatedly cut his lives short. 265

Jiang Li receives a system task to guide Yu Feng to the Core Formation Stage and discovers the reason for the rebirths. With Jiang Li providing instructions that can alter events without directly interfering with the world's timeline, Yu Feng kills the bandits threatening his village, manipulates the conflict between their leaders, and saves both his parents and the villagers. 261 264

Personality

Yu Feng is intensely cautious, distrustful of strangers, and conditioned to expect every choice to lead to death. He refuses food offered by others because a seemingly kind old woman's steamed buns once led to him being drugged, butchered, and sold as human meat. 263

Repeated failure initially leaves him passive and emotionally exhausted; he once states no goals and breaks down over the difficulty of simply staying alive. Jiang Li's arrival gradually changes this outlook. Yu Feng begins acting to save people rather than merely escaping his own fate, including protecting his village, parents, Wu Lian, and the mortals selected for sacrifice. 263 267 288

He favors preparation, concealment, and adaptable solutions over direct confrontation. Yu Feng openly recognizes that he lacks the combat talent to overwhelm stronger opponents and instead relies on layered plans, tools, formations, poisons, and knowledge gathered from multiple disciplines. 273 285

Abilities & Skills

Rebirth Through the Immortal Ascension Ladder Fragment

A large fragment of the Immortal Ascension Ladder, containing the Time Dao, was embedded in Yu Feng's body and caused time to reset whenever he died. 262

• Retained memories from previous lives, allowing him to memorize fatal routes, hostile people, and future disasters. 262 263
• Used repeated experience to gain familiarity with Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul cultivation. 265
• The fragment was extracted by Jiang Li after Yu Feng attained the Core Formation Stage; it was the largest fragment Jiang Li had encountered and still possessed energy for further rebirths. 292

Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart

Jiang Li tailored this cultivation method to Yu Feng's broad but non-specialized understanding of the Hundred Arts of Cultivation. It can lead to immortality and allows simultaneous use of multiple techniques. 273

• Enables multitasking, such as controlling Ferocious Beasts while drawing enhancement talismans. 273
• Supports cross-disciplinary combinations, including a theoretical method of using Spiritual Plant techniques and pill refinement to grow pills from plants. 273
• Suits Yu Feng's methodical style but does not turn him into a direct-combat prodigy. 273

Beast Taming

Xiong Sanquan, the Beast Taming Sect Master, teaches Yu Feng advanced Beast Taming theory far beyond the crude methods of the Ancient Passage World. 265

• Learns to place a Beast Taming Mark on a Ferocious Beast's Spirit Platform. 265
• Subdues three Qi Refining Sixth-Layer Ferocious Beasts, stopping a Beast Tide before it can form. 266
• Treats knowledge as a survival resource and commits Xiong Sanquan's lessons to memory with urgency. 266

Talisman Dao and Formations

After Bai Hongtu teaches him a subversive Talisman Dao theory, Yu Feng demonstrates exceptional insight into talismans. The discovery can exponentially increase talisman power, making its exposure dangerous in the Ancient Passage World. 270 271

• Draws talismans in the air while setting formations with his other hand. 273
• Uses his knowledge of a Spiritual Plant Grand Array's weak points to help Wu Lian dismantle it. 280
• Sets a grand array, under Bai Hongtu's direction, that binds Daoist Tong Chen with Spiritual Qi chains and crushes both his body and Nascent Soul. 281
• Avoids publicizing his true Talisman Dao attainments because powerful cultivators may seize the knowledge and silence him. 271

Pill Refinement and Poison

Yu Feng learns practical poison refinement from Huang Chengdan and pill refinement from the Red Crow Furnace. 268 275

• Refines Bone-Melt Soul-Dissolving Paste using a household stove, then uses it to weaken the Foundation Establishment Blood Sea Sect Master and her senior brother. 268
• Refines an oversized Foundation Nurturing Pill and consumes it with a spoon to strengthen his foundation. 275
• Produces sweet Accompanying Pills and an elixir that heals Daoist Tong Chen's hidden injuries. 275

Survival and Contingency Planning

Yu Feng's prior deaths make him unusually resourceful under pressure.

• Kills two bandits with a rake and stolen saber, then exploits the leaders' mutual distrust to destroy the bandit force. 264
• Uses prepared fake wings, Spirit Stones, and the Turtle Breathing Technique to survive Ma Pingfan's attempts to arrange accidental deaths. 285
• Keeps his cultivation hidden when necessary using a concealment method taught by Jiang Li. 268

Equipment / Items

• Immortal Ascension Ladder Fragment — Formerly embedded in his body and responsible for his rebirths; extracted by Jiang Li after Yu Feng reaches the Core Formation Stage. 262 292
• Pill Furnace — Gifted by Wu Lian after Yu Feng gives her a Concentric Lotus. 274
• Protective Talisman — Given to him by Bai Hongtu during the Nine Provinces cultivators' visit to the Ancient Passage World. 293
• Fake Wings — A prepared emergency tool used to glide safely after Ma Pingfan lets him fall from the sky. 285

Relationships

• Jiang Li — Mentor, protector, and the first person to explain Yu Feng's rebirths. Jiang Li reshapes Yu Feng's fate through remote guidance, arranges specialist teachers, and eventually removes the Immortal Ascension Ladder Fragment. 262 265 292
• Wu Lian — Senior Sister and romantic partner. Yu Feng saves her from a meteorite, joins her sect, and later cultivates alongside her; their relationship becomes mutually protective and intimate. 269 270 287 292
• Yu Feng's parents — Their repeated murders are the central trauma of his rebirths. Jiang Li's guidance lets Yu Feng save them from the bandits, and Yu Feng later leaves them life-prolonging pills. 262 264 287
• Daoist Tong Chen — Former master in the Talisman Dao. Yu Feng discovers Tong Chen's schemes against Wu Lian and ultimately kills him with a grand array. 270 281
• Bai Hongtu — Talisman Dao tutor and formation adviser. Bai Hongtu teaches Yu Feng the theory behind his breakthrough in talismans and later assesses the array used against Daoist Tong Chen. 270 271 281
• Xiong Sanquan — Beast Taming mentor who teaches Yu Feng how to control Ferocious Beasts beyond his cultivation level. 265 266
• Huang Chengdan — Poison-refining instructor. Though he denies accepting Yu Feng as a disciple, Yu Feng considers him among the masters who taught him. 268 293

Story Role / Major Arcs

• Endless Rebirths — Yu Feng survives innumerable loops of parental loss, bandit attacks, Ferocious Beasts, human traffickers, and random disasters before Jiang Li discovers him. 261 262 263
• Saving Maple Forest Village — Following Jiang Li's instructions, he changes the loop's opening tragedy, defeats the bandits, and saves his parents. 264
• Blood Sea Sect Conflict — He learns Beast Taming and poison refinement, stops a Beast Tide, and kills the Blood Sea Sect Master and her senior brother who repeatedly murdered him in earlier lives. 266 268
• Daoist Tong Chen's Sect — Yu Feng joins Wu Lian's sect early, develops the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart and an advanced Talisman Dao, then exposes and destroys Tong Chen's conspiracy. 270 273 281
• Immortal Cultivation Dynasty — As the Celestial Venerable establishes the dynasty, Yu Feng survives Ma Pingfan's assassination attempts, works to save a million mortals from blood sacrifice, and witnesses Jiang Li defeat the Celestial Venerable. 283 285 288 291
• Ancient Passage World's Renewal — After the disaster, Yu Feng draws on knowledge from dozens of Nine Provinces sects to help establish order and prepare the Ancient Passage World for openly taught cultivation. 293 766
