Background / History

Lu Wu began as a young entrepreneur and game developer in the Human Realm. A mysterious girl, Bei Li, revealed that he descended from the King of Bei Qi, one of the Twelve Palace Lords of the Underworld. After being brought to the ruined Bei Qi territory, he chose to inherit his ancestor’s ambition to reclaim the domain and ultimately unify the Underworld. 1

Lacking his ancestor’s immense cultivation, Lu Wu proposed using the Conquest Artifact as the basis of a game that would bring mortals’ souls into the Underworld as immortal undead warriors. Bei Li adapted the artifact into the infrastructure for Conquest Online, while Lu Wu supplied the game-design vision: quests, classes, dungeons, equipment, and Soul Coin-based progression. 1 2

As the player base grew, Lu Wu treated player conflict, exploration, commerce, and warfare as engines for both player development and Bei Qi’s expansion. He designed quests and events, created NPCs and hidden classes, built cities and cross-server systems, and repeatedly converted players’ victories into Soul Power, resources, and territory. 6 17 36 742

His role changed after the Pink Lotus Pattern identified him as the Bei Qi God and leader of the Defying Heaven Alliance. Pursued by the Immortal Realm, he became increasingly tied to the Human Race’s struggle against the Heaven Realm. 219

Following the destruction of the Human Realm, Lu Wu preserved surviving human souls in the Divine Artifact Space, resurrected the Conquest players, and revealed that their “game” had always been real. He opened the way for them to fight the Heaven Realm rather than remain victims of its invasion. 756

After Little Bei Li disappeared, Lu Wu spent ten years seeking a way to restore her. He returned to rally a million players, awakened Shao Hao to lead the Human Race, and used a Reincarnation device to pursue a new path beyond the depleted Three Realms. 765

In the Extraterritorial, Lu Wu led the players through successive conquests, formed the Heavenly Devil Allied Army, pursued Extreme Path Laws and resources, and prepared for conflict with the Holy Spirit King. 768 770 835

Having witnessed centuries of conquest, slaughter, and collapsing powers, Lu Wu abandoned the goal of merely becoming the strongest. He broke into the Order Realm with the intention of creating an orderly world and ending the Dark Forest-like rule of the strong over the weak. 843

Personality

Lu Wu is strategic, adaptable, and commercially minded. His first response to inheriting a ruined Underworld territory is not conventional cultivation, but the creation of a scalable game system capable of recruiting endless immortal soldiers. 1

He prioritizes sustainable development over immediate gain. Even while short on Soul Coins, he rejects treating player deposits as a reserve he can freely spend because doing so could leave the game unable to fulfill player purchases during a crisis. 185

Despite his authority, Lu Wu initially lacks confidence in direct combat and considers himself less capable than the powerful figures who protect him. His frustration over their sacrifices eventually becomes a major source of resolve. 599 613

Centuries of extraterritorial conquest harden him enough to use ruthless methods for the survival of his own world. However, he ultimately recognizes that permanent safety cannot rest on personal strength alone and commits himself to establishing order instead. 840 843

Abilities & Skills

Conquest Artifact Authority

Lu Wu operates the Divine/Conquest Artifact that underpins Conquest Online.

  • Creates Yin bodies, equipment, NPCs, structures, and other constructs from Yin Qi and Soul Power. 1
  • Guides mortal souls from the Yang Realm into the Underworld and enables their resurrection through newly condensed Yin bodies. 1 2
  • Issues missions and controls game mechanics through his consciousness. 6
  • Converts gathered Soul Power into Spiritual Qi to replenish players in foreign worlds. 769
  • Uses the Divine Artifact Space to escape fatal danger and preserve souls. 599 756
  • Can confer godhood through the Heavenly Devil List without relying on the Underworld’s conventional God List process. 742

Human Emperor’s Mirror and Human Emperor Qi

Lu Wu cultivates the Human Emperor’s Mirror, whose pages open Body Divine Treasures.

  • Uses Fragmented Pages to strengthen his body through Divine Treasure Entry. 518
  • Receives amplification from the prosperity, emotions, and fighting spirit of the Human Race. 753 758
  • His Human Emperor Body grows alongside the players’ development and godhood conferrals. 778
  • The cultivation is associated with unusually favorable luck, attributed to the luck of the Human Race. 573

Laws and Combat

Lu Wu gathers and employs multiple laws, though his combat skill initially lags behind his raw power.

  • Simultaneously deploys collected laws including Blood, Dark Element, Force, and Ice. 753
  • Is difficult to kill due to artifact-supported regeneration and resurrection. 30 613
  • Was initially mocked for unskilled movement and random punching in his first major direct battle. 613 616
  • Trains after the Inter-Realm Conquest and later demonstrates refined technique against an Ancient God’s remnant body. 616 753

Soldier Master Body

Lu Wu’s principal late-stage power system is the Soldier Master Plan, adapted with Zero’s assistance from the Holy Spirit King’s blueprint.

  • Forged and integrated 13,888 Super Weapons, each containing a ferocious-beast Artifact Spirit. 836
  • Forms a Soldier Master Cycle within his body to generate Soldier Master Power. 836
  • Can deploy the weapons externally or recall them into his body as streams of light. 836
  • Empowered 13,888 Zerg warriors through the weapons to form the Fighter Great Zhou Tian formation. 837
  • Requires immense Soul Coin expenditure; Lu Wu exhausted his reserves and borrowed from players to complete the initial stage. 836

Order Realm

Lu Wu’s Order Realm is born from his transformed worldview rather than from the Soldier Master Plan.

  • Seeks to establish balance and stability rather than preserve a system based on endless plunder. 843
  • Possesses power so great that his presence destabilizes space in a Small World, requiring artifact intervention to stabilize it. 843
  • Recruits allies by sharing his memories and vision rather than forcibly controlling them. 843

Equipment / Weapons / Items

  • Conquest Artifact / Divine Artifact — source of Lu Wu’s game-system authority, creation abilities, and Divine Artifact Space. 1 599
  • Human Emperor’s Mirror Fragmented Pages — open Body Divine Treasures and advance his cultivation. 518
  • Heavenly Devil List — allows Lu Wu to confer godhood and engrave players’ names. 742 778
  • 13,888 Super Weapons — integrated into his Soldier Master Body; collectively produce Soldier Master Power. 836
  • Special axe-type Super Weapon — uniquely accepts power from the other Soldier Master weapons but cannot contain a ferocious-beast Artifact Spirit. 838
  • Reincarnation device — activated by burning Soul Coins to open a ghostly-green vortex into a new path. 765

Relationships

  • Bei Li / Little Bei Li — partner, advisor, and artifact specialist. She helps build Conquest Online, teaches Lu Wu about the Three Realms and Divine Artifacts, and remains central to his motivation after her disappearance. 1 2 548 765
  • King of Bei Qi — Lu Wu’s ancestor and predecessor as ruler of Bei Qi; his unfinished legacy gives Lu Wu both his lineage and initial objective. 1 30
  • Bei Ming — protector and teacher-like figure who defends Lu Wu from a Heavenly True Lord and risks becoming hunted by the Heaven Realm to ignite his Divine Fire. 219
  • Shao Hao / Doctor Sea — ancient Human Race leader awakened by Lu Wu to lead human descendants while Lu Wu continues his larger campaign. 765
  • Zero — leader of the Heavenly Machine Legion and Lu Wu’s collaborator on the Soldier Master Plan. 780 836
  • Silkworm Baby — Void Zerg ally aided by Lu Wu during the war against the Nightmare Zerg. 804 837
  • Holy Spirit King — ultimate rival and inadvertent source of several systems Lu Wu later uses, including the Soldier Master blueprint; Lu Wu eventually defeats him after thousands of years of training and battle. 836 846
  • Conquest players — Lu Wu’s soldiers, foundation of his power, and eventually the people he openly leads as the Human Emperor. 650 756 767

Trivia

  • Lu Wu initially chose the mage class when entering Conquest Online as a player because he knew its long-term potential, despite its weak early game. 16
  • He is repeatedly embarrassed by his lack of combat experience and is nicknamed “Big Meat Shield” after serving as an exceptionally durable distraction in battle. 613 616
  • He once summarized his combat solution against a stronger opponent as: “Although I can’t beat you, I can demolish your home!” 647
  • Lu Wu avoids becoming a conventional Underworld god immediately, despite having the authority to confer godhood, because player growth is more important to his own development. 742
