Background

Bixiao sought revenge against Cihang after a previous defeat, receiving Zhao Gongming’s conceptual weapon to confront him. The weapon’s rule-based suppression forced Cihang to kneel helplessly despite circulating his mana and even attempting to burn essence blood. 1 4

The public kneeling incident spawned rumors that he was Bixiao’s godson or biological son, with Zhao Gongming alleged to be his father. Cihang vehemently denied every version of the rumor, but his distressed appearance only intensified the gossip and earned him the nickname “Little Nanliang.” 4 5 6

Determined to discard the nickname and cultivate a tougher image, Cihang approached Zhao Gongming for a powerful, masculine conceptual treasure. He provided the Innate Mirage Spirit Jade, obtained from the Treasure Distribution Cliff, as the refining material. Zhao Gongming instead forged the pink Divine King Magic Immortal Stick, whose overwhelming summoning effect came with an involuntary magical-girl transformation. 8 9

Appearance

Cihang is a fair-skinned, delicate-looking man whose gentle and handsome appearance is repeatedly mistaken for femininity by other cultivators. He ordinarily wears white daoist robes, but the Divine King Magic Immortal Stick forcibly changes him into a conspicuous magical-fairy outfit during use. 5 8 10

• Fair complexion and refined, handsome features.
• Often described as having a delicate or vulnerable appearance.
• Typically wears white Chan Sect robes.
• During transformation, wears a pink lace puffy skirt, white stockings, a bow, and butterfly wings. 9 10

Personality

Cihang is deeply protective of his dignity and masculine self-image. Being called “Little Nanliang,” mistaken for a woman, or associated with the rumors surrounding Bixiao and Zhao Gongming reliably provokes embarrassment, anger, or outright panic. 5 9 57

Despite this sensitivity, he is willing to endure humiliating activation rituals when the stakes involve power, sect honor, or helping others. He used the Magic Immortal Stick in an attempt to restore the Chan Sect’s reputation against Duo Bao, aided the Human Race despite the risk of public humiliation, and later agreed to instruct Jie Sect disciples after recognizing the value of his artifact. 22 50 168 169

Cihang can also be unexpectedly enthusiastic when others suffer the same kind of forced kneeling that humiliated him. Watching Dizang kneel under Bixiao’s treasure, he openly celebrated because he finally found someone who understood his experience. 12

Abilities & Skills

Golden Immortal Cultivation

Cihang is a Chan Sect Golden Immortal. Though powerful in his own right, his greatest documented combat advantage comes from the conceptual effects of his magic treasure. Yuanshi Tianzun judged that the Divine King Magic Immortal Stick could let him dominate opponents within the Golden Immortal realm. 11

• Possesses the mobility and combat capability expected of a Chan Sect direct disciple.
• Can participate in conflicts involving major Primordial factions and Quasi-Saint-level threats. 22 38
• Was defeated by Duo Bao when the latter’s Lightning Five Consecutive Whips applied conceptual hard control before Cihang could command his summoned Dharma Image. 51

Divine King Magic Immortal Stick

A Houtian Spirit Treasure of Conceptual Level forged by Zhao Gongming from the Innate Mirage Spirit Jade. Although Cihang wanted an imposing masculine weapon, the resulting pink fairy stick specializes in summoning powerful projections. 9

• Heroic Spirit Descent · Powerful Allies Aid — randomly summons a projection of a top Primordial mighty figure, excluding Saints, regardless of time, space, or karma. 9
• Moe transformation of summons — every summoned projection is forcibly given a feminine, “moe” appearance and altered personality. 9
• Full-body transformation — Cihang is transformed into a pink magical-fairy outfit for the duration of battle. 9 10
• Activation requirement — he must spin, strike a transformation pose, hold the stick, and loudly recite its magical-fairy incantation. 9 10
• Documented summons include feminized versions of Di Jun, Di Jiang, Ancestor Minghe, Zhen Yuanzi, Ancestor Hongyun, and Haotian. 10 27 51 77 145 169
• Combat limitation — the projection must still be commanded; hard control can prevent Cihang from acting before it attacks. 51

Law Demonstration and Instruction

After initially resenting the spread of his transformation recordings, Cihang accepted requests from Luo Xuan, Lü Yue, and Featherwing Immortal to teach them. He transformed and summoned an empress-version projection of Haotian to help them comprehend imperial laws. 168 169

• Can use summoned projections as demonstrations of a powerful being’s Dao laws.
• His artifact’s projections retain recognizable origin auras and law fluctuations despite their altered appearances. 168

Equipment / Weapons / Items

Relationships

• Zhao Gongming — Initially the artifact refiner indirectly responsible for Cihang’s public humiliation; later Cihang commissions him to forge the Divine King Magic Immortal Stick. Their relationship develops into frequent teasing, arguments, and reluctant cooperation. 8 9 167 169
• Bixiao — Chan Sect–Jie Sect rival whose weapon forced Cihang to kneel and created the “Little Nanliang” rumors. Cihang later supports her in battle after recognizing the effectiveness of her methods. 4 12
• Yuanshi Tianzun — Cihang’s master and the Chan Sect Sage, who acknowledges the power of Cihang’s treasure while lamenting its effect on the sect’s image. 11
• Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun — Fellow Chan Sect disciple who repeatedly presses Cihang about the Bixiao and Zhao Gongming rumors, provoking Cihang’s fury. 5
• Duo Bao — Opponent at the Kunlun Sacred Canon; Cihang challenged him to defend Chan Sect honor but was immobilized and defeated by the Lightning Five Consecutive Whips. 50 51
• Di Jiang — One of the powerful figures Cihang can summon through the Magic Immortal Stick; Di Jiang also leaves Cihang a communication token. 27 38
• Luo Xuan, Lü Yue, and Featherwing Immortal — Jie Sect disciples who admire Cihang’s summoning treasure and request his instruction. 168 169
• Jùliúsūn — Fellow Chan Sect disciple whose use of the Hide-and-Seek Daoist Robe mentally torments Cihang, prompting Cihang to retaliate with a Hongyun projection. 145

Story Role / Major Arcs

Qilin Cliff Humiliation

Cihang becomes the first major victim of Zhao Gongming’s conceptual artifacts when Bixiao’s Sword of Father’s Love Like a Mountain forces him to kneel and accept the role of an “unfilial son.” His inability to explain the incident stops neither the rumors nor the birth of the “Little Nanliang” nickname. 3 4 5

Magic Fairy Transformation

Seeking a weapon that would make him appear more masculine, Cihang commissions Zhao Gongming and receives the Divine King Magic Immortal Stick. His first public activation at Jade Void Palace summons a feminized Di Jun while transforming Cihang into a magical fairy, worsening the image problem he had hoped to solve. 9 10 11

Human Ancestral Land and Demon Court Incident

Cihang joins Zhao Gongming, Xuandu, and Medicine Master in confronting Demon Master Kunpeng at the Human Ancestral Land. Zhao Gongming forces him to demonstrate the Magic Immortal Stick, and the appearance of a transformed Di Jun projection helps intimidate Kunpeng but triggers further misunderstandings within the Demon Court. 22 23 24 27

Kunlun Sacred Canon

Cihang supports Bixiao’s match against Dizang, delighted when Dizang is forced to kneel just as he once was. Later, he challenges Duo Bao to restore Chan Sect face, transforms on stage, summons a feminized Ancestor Minghe, and is defeated before the projection can attack. 12 50 51

Abstract Army and Public Fame

Cihang becomes one of Xuanyuan’s admired “abstract masters,” valued for battlefield summoning and fire coverage. At a banquet, he drunkenly summons a school-uniform version of Zhen Yuanzi; recordings of the incident make him a sensation and lead him to swear off drinking. 77 78 86

Primordial Heavenly Net Era

After Zhao Gongming uploads Cihang’s transformation footage to the Primordial Heavenly Net, Cihang confronts him in fury. Praise from younger disciples eventually changes his response: he agrees to teach them and demonstrates the Magic Immortal Stick by summoning an empress-version Haotian. 167 168 169
