Background / History
The Heavenly Court discovered Ye Fan, an Earth-born genius with the Human Race Sacred Body, during an era when the changing rules of heaven and earth made Sacred Body cultivation increasingly difficult 116. After reaching Great Accomplishment, he visited Tanggu Valley and met Haotian the Great Emperor, Ying Hao, who gave him a divided drop of Ancestral Witch Essence Blood and placed him among eleven senior Great Accomplishment Sacred Bodies 116.
Ying Hao tasked Ye Fan with refining the essence blood and studying the simplified Twelve Divine Fiend Banners, calling the formation an essential part of the coming era 117. Ye Fan refined part of the blood within a century, attained an alternative Dao, and became the formation's primary figure 117 161.
After becoming a Mortal World Immortal, Ye Fan entered the Immortal Realm and later traveled through the Sea of Worlds with Wang Bo and others 161. His growth there carried him from Immortal King to peak Immortal King, after which Ying Hao taught him Heaven and Earth Manifestation and deliberately used battles to temper his mastery of it 182.
By the Weird Race's counterattack, Ye Fan had refined three drops of Ancestral Witch Essence Blood, advanced to Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and transformed his Sacred Body toward an Ancestral Witch True Body 193. He fought throughout the Soul River and Ancient Underworld campaigns, then broke through to Immortal Emperor during the larger war against the Weird Race 196 201 243 244.
After Ying Hao and the Desolate Heaven Emperor's plan separated the group, Ye Fan continued fighting the Weird Race across the void beyond the Myriad Worlds 273. He eventually attained Sacrifice Dao, though one of his avatars remained behind to occupy a Weird Ancestor while his true body stayed concealed 273 274. He later returned openly to the Yang World, suppressing a Weird Ancestor and reuniting with his granddaughter, Ye Qingxian 322.
Appearance
Ye Fan is described as a weathered warrior during his reunion with Ying Hao, his body covered in blood and Dao Scars from prolonged combat against a Weird Ancestor 273. When activating Heaven and Earth Manifestation, he becomes a colossal giant whose body towers over the heavens and earth 196 223.
- Possesses the Human Race Sacred Body, noted for abundant Blood Essence and an exceptionally powerful physical body 98 116.
- His physique later develops toward an Ancestral Witch True Body after refining Ancestral Witch Essence Blood 193.
- His unleashed blood energy can burn away Weird Substance and overwhelm Quasi-Immortal Emperors 223.
Personality
Ye Fan is resolute and accepts difficult responsibilities without hesitation. When Ying Hao entrusts him with the Twelve Divine Fiend Banners, he promises not to miss the opportunity despite not fully knowing the Great Emperor's plans 117.
He is a natural leader: the other cultivators of the Sea of Worlds gradually follow his lead, and Ying Hao considers him the most suitable core for the Twelve Divine Fiend Banners 161. He is also pragmatic and cunning in battle, using an avatar to occupy a Weird Ancestor while concealing his true body 273.
His respect for Ying Hao remains strong even after he reaches Sacrifice Dao. Ye Fan credits Ying Hao's guidance for accelerating his path, while Ying Hao insists that Ye Fan's breakthrough was earned through his own ability 274.
