Background / History

Tang Shan initially presents himself as an ordinary martial artist despite his extensive knowledge, wealth, and access to the Cosmic Void Alliance. In reality, he is the Little Grandmaster and young master of the Limit Divine Court, one of the Divine Realm’s four great core powers. He travels with Ye Fan, initially under the name Feng Qi, and the two develop a friendly rapport despite their sharply different approaches to cultivation. 1262 1263 1289

Before his return to the Limit Divine Court, Tang Shan is known as a carefree playboy who tempers his heart through worldly pleasures to comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth. His elder half-brother Tang Feng was the court’s favored heir, while Tang Shan was treated as an idle and insignificant younger son. 1263 1337 1338 1340

Tang Feng arranges Tang Shan’s assassination and later admits that he considers him “trash.” Tang Shan learns that his brother and their father had treated him as nourishment: Tang Feng’s Blue Silver Grass had been absorbing his vitality to support Tang Feng’s breakthrough. 1341 1358

Near death, Tang Shan answers a call to awaken his origin bloodline. He endures extreme pressure while pursuing a purple-gold light, then reverses Tang Feng’s scheme by absorbing the Blue Silver Grass rooted in his body. The process awakens the Purple-Gold Sacred Body, evolves his inherited Blue Silver Grass into the Purple-Gold Divine Vine, and propels him to half-step God King. 1353 1358 1361

Following this transformation, Tang Shan challenges Tang Feng for the Limit Divine Court’s inheritance. He wins their direct confrontation and later defeats Tang Feng in the Sequence Battle, securing the court’s recognition and a path toward assuming its leadership. 1366 1390 1404

Appearance

Tang Shan is consistently described as a chubby, plump young man or “little fatty.” His awakened bloodline changes his bearing rather than his preferred physique: he remains round-bodied by choice, believing that appearance suits his identity. 1289 1358 1361

• A chubby, lovable build that remains unchanged after his awakening. 1358 1361
• Purple-gold traces appear in his blood, while his bones become jade-like during his transformation. 1358
• After awakening, he radiates a noble, confident presence and bloodline pressure that even Tang Feng feels. 1361
• Uses a tall, handsome avatar skin in the Cosmic Void Alliance’s virtual space. 1264

Personality

Tang Shan is flamboyant, sociable, and fond of pleasure. He treats immersion in the mortal world as his personal method of comprehending the Heavenly Dao, and he enjoys ostentatious virtual identities and expensive collector’s items. 1263 1264 1281

Beneath this frivolous exterior, he is perceptive and fiercely loyal. He gambles heavily on Ye Fan’s success, helps assess the value of Ye Fan’s Enlightenment Bodhi Seed, and steps forward to shield Ye Fan and Feng Jiu from pursuing God Kings despite knowing he is outmatched. 1272 1289 1332

Tang Feng’s betrayal forces Tang Shan to mature. He abandons his former willingness to retreat, develops a determined and vengeful side, and resolves to fight for the position of young master rather than remain a disposable sacrifice. 1353 1362 1380
