Background / History

Wang Xuan began as a university student devoted to the declining Old Arts. He studied numerous Root Methods, then focused on the Pre-Qin Daoist legacy under Professor Lin, treating Old Arts as a path he intended to carry into genuine life-and-death struggles. 3 8

His cultivation changed fundamentally after he entered the Inner Scenery Realm through the Ascension Stone's residual power. There, he encountered traces of the Female Daoist practitioner, cultivated the Golden Body Art at accelerated pace, and became increasingly entangled with ancient practitioners and returning immortal forces. 34 35 68

He became a central figure in the revival of Old Arts, helping Old Chen enter the Inner Scenery Realm, publicly defeating challengers from multiple factions, and reaching Grandmaster status while still young. 64 77 100

After entering the supernatural domain, Wang Xuan used the stone tablet's True Form Diagrams, Golden Book techniques, and spiritual-world secret power to build an exceptional foundation. As myths declined, his Inner Scenery Realm became a refuge where allies could cultivate while their own realms collapsed. 185 298 299

Following the fading of the Mother Universe's supernatural era, he continued cultivating through Nirvana, the True Source, and eventually a new supernatural universe. He repeatedly concealed his identity while acting as Kong Xuan, Lu Renjia, Sun Wukong, and other personas. 558 746 1036

Appearance

Wang Xuan is a handsome, upright young man whose demeanor changes with his cultivation: early on he is described as radiant in morning light, while later observers see an increasingly ethereal, refined presence. 4 570

• Fair complexion and delicate features. 4
• Bright, piercing eyes; golden flecks can appear in them after cultivation. 4
• Clean white teeth and a notably striking smile. 4
• Tall, upright bearing with an intense, clear gaze. 12
• His original appearance carries a heroic spirit, distinct from the fiercer persona he adopts as Kong Xuan. 1036

Personality

Wang Xuan is composed under pressure and refuses to be intimidated by status, wealth, or domineering personalities. He insists on meeting powerful figures as an equal and chooses the Old Arts despite its decline. 8 12

He is highly independent in cultivation. He respects ancient methods but does not blindly revere their creators, instead comparing incompatible scriptures and building a path suited to himself. 260 300

Despite his often teasing, provocative manner, Wang Xuan is protective of his friends and family. Threats against his parents provoke an uncompromising response, and he repeatedly risks himself to protect Old Chen, Zhao Qinghan, Wu Yin, and others. 64 190 231

He values mortal life as well as transcendence. When pressured to choose between the supernatural path and ordinary human attachments, he rejects the premise entirely. 463

Body Arts and Physical Cultivation

Wang Xuan's physical foundation is built around the Golden Body Art, Pre-Qin Root Methods, Serpent Crane Eight Scattered Hands, and Zhang Daoling's Body Arts. 35 75 86

Scripture Integration and Secret Power

Wang Xuan combines several high-level inheritances rather than relying on a single orthodox lineage. His core sources include the stone tablet scripture, Pre-Qin Golden Bamboo Slips, Golden Book, Shakya True Scripture, and multiple mental-cultivation arts. 174 185 299

• Developed an Imperial Dao Origin Pool and six layers of Dao-imperialized patterns. 1091
