Background

Yuan was an existence who escaped the Cage and later left behind inheritances, secret techniques, treasure lands, and resources throughout the Origin Continent. His legacy made him exceptionally revered there, though he was known for being detached and reluctant to personally accept disciples. 4 136

He became the first Lord of the Cultivator Faction. In its earliest era, the faction possessed no territory and could only protect a limited area; as more Lords emerged, its holdings expanded to 3,600 world clusters. Yuan views the Source Worlds and their inhabitants as part of the cultivator race he seeks to protect. 23 182

Yuan contributed the Initial Land as the faction's foundational mystical realm and created Infinite Space, a treasure land that tests Mind Will, path creation, and the ability to kill Native Creatures. 273 437

Appearance

Yuan has manifested as an elderly man with a calm smile when meeting Luo Feng. At a later council gathering, he wore colorful attire. 273 450

• Elderly male appearance during his meeting with Luo Feng. 273
• Colorful clothing during the Cultivator Faction's resource dispute. 450
• Can condense incarnations to communicate across distance. 23

Personality

Yuan is patient, inclusive, and deeply protective of Source World life. He believes the Cultivator Faction must continuously expand until it can prevent other factions from devouring Source Worlds. 23 401

He is also humble about his own accomplishments, openly acknowledging Starlight's contributions and presenting himself as less suited to direct combat than formation-based support. 364 437

His usual discipline became questionable after a severe soul attack by Mogus left him without awareness of the outside world; Mogus predicted lasting effects. Much later, Yuan admitted that he could not control himself around stored faction resources after privately taking Progenitor corpses for an attempt to create a Source World. 32 450

Story Role / Major Arcs

Guidance of Luo Feng

Yuan personally met Luo Feng on Primal Chaos Island and explained the two principal paths beyond the Cage. He encouraged Luo Feng to pursue Yi Li Po Fa first, while providing a bracelet containing resources, Reward Points, and access to communication with other Cultivators. 364

Expansion of the Cultivator Faction

Yuan supports territorial expansion as the means to secure Source Worlds against factions that consume their origins. He advocated occupying additional territory to pressure the Innate Primal Chaos Lifeform Faction into surrendering Source Worlds. 23 438

Completion of His Path

After over 200,000 epochs in seclusion, Yuan completed the Origin System of his Primal Chaos Rule Operation Path. The other Lords regarded the breakthrough as a major increase in the faction's ability to wage war. 437

Targeting and Injury

During a confrontation with opposing Progenitors, Mogus and six accomplices used a soul attack that completely deprived Yuan of external awareness. The Infinite Serpent Ancestor subsequently trapped him, allowing the Endless Ancestor's explosive attack to annihilate Yuan's trapped combat body. 32 440

Resource Misappropriation

After the faction's territorial expansion stabilized, Starlight discovered that Yuan had privately taken the corpses of Nightmare and Thousand Eyes, along with lesser resources, to attempt the creation of a Source World. Yuan accepted that he should no longer manage the faction's shared resources. 450

Trivia

• Yuan is distinct from Yuan Zu, Luo Feng's human grand-master. Yuan Zu sometimes uses “Yuan” as a shortened public form of address, which can cause confusion. 114
• Although ancient beings may call themselves Yuan's disciples after receiving his inheritance or guidance, Yuan is described as too detached to actively take disciples. 136
• Yuan's strength is centered on formations and coordination; he considers his direct combat ability less notable than that of combat-focused Lords. 437
