Background / History

Lu Yuan is a transmigrator who distinguishes sharply between his former life and his present one. He considers the frankness and idealism of his previous life to have contributed to his death; in contrast, he deliberately cultivated steadiness, strategy, and restraint in his current life. 269 361

He rose from a low starting point, gaining exceptional Spatial Power, the Eye of Fate, and a body strengthened by dragon blood. His early experiences convinced him that stable development, reliable foundations, and control over one’s own fate were more valuable than merely receiving resources. 286 407

In the world of the Dao, Lu Yuan established the Six Stars faction and trained Yuan Mao as his successor rather than allowing his accomplishments to be inherited by opportunists. He viewed unification as a responsibility as much as an achievement, and sought to prevent his legacy from becoming the source of further division. 271 358

During his time in the Zhu Xian world, Lu Yuan distributed his cultivation potential among five incarnations. These identities infiltrated or joined Qingyun Sect, Heavenly Sound Temple, Incense Valley, Ghost King Sect, and Blood Refinement Hall, allowing him to collect inheritances and cultivate several Heavenly Books simultaneously. 380 386 478

He later fused most of his origin back into his main body, recovering his original appearance and much of his strength. His stated objective was to prepare cultivators for an approaching war of worlds, even if this required deception, conflicting affiliations, and the establishment of Blood Refinement Hall outside Qingyun Sect. 478 490

Much later, the being calling himself Lu Yuan’s Past Self revealed that Lu Yuan was a soul fragment that had escaped its intended trajectory. According to this account, Lu Yuan’s memories are genuine because they were once part of that original existence, but his path diverged through an unforeseen accident. 1287

Appearance

Lu Yuan’s original appearance is delicately featured without being effeminate, giving him a gallant and heroic attractiveness. After recovering much of his origin, he again resembled his Qingyun Dao Child identity, though his true appearance remained distinct from each incarnation. 224 371 490

• Delicate, somewhat feminine facial features balanced by a valiant bearing. 224 371
• Retains traces of his childhood appearance even as an adult. 371
• Usually favors understated clothing and avoids ostentatious displays of status. 371 432
• Alters his appearance freely when using identities such as Li Feiyu and Xiao Yuan. 559 602
• His incarnations deliberately project different images: Dao Child Lu Yuan appears placid and unambitious, Devil Child Lu Yuan unruly and unorthodox, while Dongfang Yuan presents a heroic martial image. 417 432

Personality

Lu Yuan is highly analytical, private, and difficult to predict. He prefers to understand the essence of a situation before acting, teaches others to avoid public apologies that weaken their position, and has little patience for explanations he considers unnecessary. 224 567 630

He is pragmatic toward enemies and believes that strength is necessary in a cruel world. He does not consider ruthlessness inherently immoral when it protects his interests or extracts essential information, but he particularly despises hypocrisy and people who conceal selfish motives beneath righteous language. 416 610 661

Despite this, Lu Yuan is not wholly detached. He recognizes that absolute rationality and absolute emotion do not exist, protects people he accepts as his own, and increasingly tries to balance calculation with sincerity. Yao Chen’s guidance leads him to abandon an oppressive contract with Zhu Kun and place greater trust in others. 429 718

Abilities & Skills

Spatial Power

Lu Yuan’s defining ability is his command of space. He can use it far beyond the limits expected of his realm and retains it even when local world rules suppress other powers. 371 403

• Blocks and crushes Bone Dragons, kills Black Fox Lady repeatedly, and scatters Black Foxes through spatial attacks. 371
• Creates Spatial Teleportation Arrays to remove allies from danger. 371
• Uses Spatial Power to store and retrieve objects, a feat normally associated with Supremes in the Myriad Heavens. 824
• Can manifest transparent spatial techniques without hand seals; earlier versions produced silver radiance and required gestures for stability. 371
• Remains limited when a world’s rules suppress space, though the connection cannot be completely severed. 383 403

Heavenly Book and Myriad Laws Domain

Lu Yuan’s core cultivation path is an adaptive technique compatible with countless methods and attributes. Its practical limit is tied to his own understanding rather than the technique itself. 623

• Cultivated Heavenly Book Volumes 1, 2, and 4 completely, with an inferior substitute for Volume 5 before later acquiring more volumes. 403 478
• Uses the Myriad Laws Domain to resist elemental attacks and seize control of mana that has already left an opponent’s body. 416
• Can seal externalized mana and disrupt enemy spells, but cannot directly seal all of an opponent’s internal cultivation. 416
• Created a new Heavenly Book incorporating multiple Primordial Grade techniques through extensive categorization and deduction. 815
• His mana quality was assessed as able to offset roughly ten portions of ordinary mana with one portion of his own. 416

Elemental and Rule Manipulation

Lu Yuan is proficient in multiple elements and rules, allowing him to switch attributes without weakening the original attack. 407 623

• Pure Yang Flame — Borrowed and controlled Dongfang Qinlan’s flame to purge Cold Poison and eliminate demonic creatures; later used it with sword qi to defeat Elder Gai in one move. 218 285
• Water and Blood Rule — Can manipulate water and blood; effectiveness depends heavily on the cultivation gap and an opponent’s ability to stabilize their own body. 218 431
• Heavenly Metal — Controlled metal within the Hong Family Old Ancestor’s body, destroying his heart and brain before extracting his soul. 663
• Flesh and Blood Rule — Temporarily controlled Yun Lan Sect members while excluding Yun Shan and Yun Yun. 557
• Ice and Fire — Blocked Zhu Xian Sword Qi with an ice wall and can combine opposing elemental applications in combat. 491

Eye of Fate and Ocular Techniques

Lu Yuan possesses the Eye of Fate, a power connected to fate and time. 403

• Can perceive future possibilities, though the Eye of Fate cannot always activate its contained spells or clearly view future events. 403 589
• Uses ocular pressure to pain and warn observers who intrude upon his affairs. 587
• His Heavenly Eye drew immediate recognition from Yang Yifang, suggesting a connection to the Yang Family. 227
• Time-based functions are partially disabled when fate is forced into standby. 403

Incarnations and Clone Techniques

Lu Yuan divides cultivation and identity among multiple incarnations through the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s Distraction Technique. His soul remains intact rather than being permanently split. 386 402

• Maintained five principal incarnations across rival sects and factions. 380
• Each incarnation supplied cultivation benefits to the shared origin, enabling abnormal cultivation speed. 386
• The incarnations preserved separate identities, combat styles, and public reputations. 380 432
• Later used One Qi Transforming into Three Purities, a divine ability whose rapidly advancing layers greatly increased his combat power. 1101

Alchemy

Lu Yuan became an exceptionally capable alchemist under Yao Chen’s instruction and later became Xuan Yi’s close disciple. 619 945

• Replicated Yao Chen’s pill-refining methods after only three demonstrations and reached Fifth-Rank Alchemist capability. 619
• Passed Danta’s Second-Rank examination while disguised as Li Feiyu and deliberately used unfamiliar methods to avoid exposure. 646
• Was tested with the Fifth-Rank Rejuvenating Spirit Purple Pill during the Fourth-Rank examination because Xuan Yi recognized Yao Chen’s influence in his techniques. 647
• Refined Bone Growing Blood Melting Pills for the Tushan Fox Clan in exchange for access to their cultivation arts. 1185

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Tai Xu Short Spear / Tai Xu Bone Spear — Spatial weapon used to incapacitate Yan and severely injure Huan Du Qingtian. 171 293

• Red Dust Threads — Time-related treasure used alongside the Years Blade and offered to the Heart Demon Thunder Emperor in exchange for the Supreme Heart Demon Scripture. 875 1165
• Heavenly Book — His adaptable cultivation foundation, eventually expanded into a personally derived compilation of Primordial Grade techniques. 623 815
• Blood Devouring Pearl — Blood Refinement Hall’s sacred artifact, wielded by his Liu Yuan incarnation. 396 406
• Tuo She Ancient Emperor Jade — Possessed by Lu Yuan; Zi Yan sought to borrow it to communicate with her father. 604

Relationships

• Xiao Wu — Wife. Lu Yuan publicly confirmed their marriage when rejecting Hu Liena’s advances, placing Xiao Wu’s wishes and his responsibility above his own feelings. 172
• Yun Yun — Former master and later wife. Their bond endured Lu Yuan’s betrayal of Yun Lan Sect, confrontation with Yun Shan, and eventual reconciliation. 503 555 634 972
• Luo Li — Partner and ally. They once fought side by side; Luo Tianshen later accepted Lu Yuan as her partner after Lu Yuan established his authority within the Luo God Clan. 976 1044 1045
• Bi Yao — Romantic confidante and trusted ally. Lu Yuan acknowledges his feelings for her and trusts her judgment on major matters. 429 471

• Xuan Yi — Close master. Lu Yuan became her eldest close disciple after Yao Chen introduced him to her. 647 945
