Background / History

Little Black Tower was left to Qin Guan by his Master inside a storage bag. When Qin Guan held it, the tower became light and merged into his glabella; it initially ignored all attempts at communication. 1

It later revealed that Qin Guan's Master had discovered Qin Guan's Chaos Body a year earlier and arranged their partnership. The tower needs Chaos Qi to recover from a Dao Injury, while it would help Qin Guan cultivate, conceal his Heavenly Eye during the Chaos Body's awakening, and block karmic entanglements. 40

The tower states that it was conceived from primordial chaos rather than crafted. Its upper tower body was once severed by a sword, then slowly regrew, but the resulting Dao Injury remains unresolved. 451 537 Although it can withstand attacks from powerful enemies and spatial storms, it acknowledges that a full-power Golden Immortal could crack its tower body and damage its origin. 144 414 896

When Qin Guan absorbed the Black Long Sword, its artifact spirit Chi Mei reunited with the tower. She offered her innate origin to heal its injury, but the tower refused because the damage to her would be too severe and Qin Guan still faced immediate danger. 548 The tower later merged with Chi Mei's sword form, Zhan Chi, to create the Tower Sword and help Qin Guan escape into First Line of Sky. 577

Appearance

Little Black Tower ordinarily appears as a small, plain black tower that can rest in Qin Guan's palm or reside within his glabella. Outsiders may mistake it for an unremarkable object. 1 331

• Its material is described as naturally formed, with no visible crafting marks, curse seals, or array patterns. 336
• Its interior is an immense independent space whose boundaries even Tianji Zi could not perceive. 366
• When merged with Zhan Chi, its body transforms into a flowing dark star river and forms a nine-layered Chaos Tower Guard around the sword hilt. 577
• Its origin manifests as black energy and can emit an ambiguous pink radiance when using the Sister Great Dao. 548 751

Personality

Little Black Tower is blunt, sarcastic, and highly suspicious of human motives. It initially distrusts Qin Guan because of his Master's previous treatment of it, but gradually becomes deeply invested in Qin Guan's survival and progress. 40 120

It frequently mocks Qin Guan's recklessness, slow cultivation, and relationships. Its advice can be genuinely insightful—especially regarding combat techniques and cultivation—but it often couches that guidance in vulgar teasing or self-serving schemes. 153 698 769

The tower is proud of its primordial origin and resents being treated as storage space or exposed to danger unnecessarily. It is also pragmatic: it may refuse requests that risk its own survival, as when it forbade Qin Guan's group from watering their Dao Trees for fear of heavenly tribulation. 315 859

Abilities & Functions

Spatial Sanctuary

Little Black Tower can shelter living beings, store objects, and isolate its occupants from external threats.

• Qin Guan, Bai You, the Netherworld Dog, and numerous Demonic Beasts used it as a refuge from the revived creator of the Demon Sword. 144
• It can cut off its interior's contact with the outside world and extinguish its light screen to conceal those within. 144
• Its internal space is vast enough to contain spirit veins, beasts, cultivation areas, and numerous inhabitants. 315 366
• It can transport occupants through dangerous spatial turbulence unharmed. 414
• Certain secret-realm laws can suppress it, limiting it to speech and preventing storage functions. 500

Time Acceleration and Cultivation Support

The tower's internal time flow greatly accelerates cultivation.

• Its time flow was first described as ten times faster than the outside world. 127
• By a later period, Qin Guan states that cultivation inside is equivalent to eighteen times outside time, though maintaining this function consumes immense resources. 691
• Its second floor imposes pressure slightly greater than three times normal pressure, allowing Qin Guan to temper his body and will. 96
• Entry to the third floor requires unwavering willpower; the tower describes its contents as “truly monstrous.” 316

Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron

The third floor contains the Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron, an artifact-refining tool.

• It uses seven-colored Tiangong Molten Fire, whose temperature can be adjusted for refining and can grant refined items spirituality. 396
• Qin Guan used it to refine Thousand Year Bat King wing membranes and materials into miniature Invisibility Cloaks. 396
• The tower states that the cauldron possesses many unknown functions and may hold world-destroying treasures. 394 404

Defense and Combat

Despite its injury, Little Black Tower possesses extraordinary durability and offensive force.

• It remained unharmed when attacked by the remnant soul of the Demon Sword's creator. 144
• It repelled the Black Dragon with a headbutt after the dragon attacked it. 377
• It pulverized Spatial Blades and crossed repeated space storms without apparent damage. 414
• It can attack or ambush enemies directly, including the Yellow Robe Old Men of the Xuanhuang Dao Sect. 553
• Its defenses were severely pressured by Su Qingjie's Immortal Burial Tablet, forcing it to request Chaos Qi and release Yuan Bao to absorb the tablet's power. 793

Chaos Qi and Origin Absorption

Chaos Qi is central to the tower's recovery and power.

• Qin Guan's Chaos Qi heals its Dao Injury and sustains their agreement. 40
• It can use Chaos Qi to strengthen its resistance against powerful attacks. 793
• It absorbed Yin Yang Fa Zu's Yin Yang Origin as nourishment for its own Great Dao. 707 751
• It refused Chi Mei's offer of innate origin energy because consuming it would seriously harm her. 548

Sister Great Dao

The Sister Great Dao is Little Black Tower's distinctive and dangerous Great Dao.

• It can break through or interfere with another person's Great Dao Power. 694
• Its techniques target consciousness, Mind Origin, Desire Source, and an opponent's Dao Power through pink-black Dao runes. 790 791
• It controlled more than twenty Jieyun Immortal Mansion women and later targeted further elders, demonstrating large-area influence. 792
• It can use Qin Guan's Chaos Power as part of its own methods, a fact Qin Guan recognizes during its conflict with Jieyun Immortal Mansion. 792
• Its power is not absolute: the Immortal Burial Tablet could resist its intrusion and place the tower's origin in grave danger. 793

Tower Sword

By merging with Zhan Chi, Little Black Tower can become part of a powerful sword artifact.

• The fusion forms a Tower Sword with a nine-layered Chaos Tower Guard and a star-like sword hilt. 577
• Qin Guan can merge with the Tower Sword to enter First Line of Sky and evade pursuing Heavenly Dao cultivators. 577
• The completed weapon radiates Chaos pressure capable of freezing time and space across the West Wilds. 577

Internal Features

• Great Dao Mountain — A mountain moved into the tower by Qin Guan's Master and arranged to possess its own Dao rhythm. 843
• Dao Soil — Soil also placed there by the Master, used to plant Great Dao Seeds and cultivate Dao Trees. 843
• Dao Vein — An ancient true dragon's soul formed a Dao Vein beneath the mountain, supplying vast Origin Power to nourish the Dao Trees. 858
• Cultivation floors — The first floor is used for ordinary cultivation; the second supplies body-tempering pressure; the third contains artifact-refining facilities. 96 316 396
• Light screen — Allows inhabitants to observe exterior events unless the tower deliberately conceals the connection. 144

Relationships

• Qin Guan — Owner, partner, and primary beneficiary of the Master's agreement. Qin Guan supplies Chaos Qi, while the tower provides protection, cultivation support, and guidance. Their relationship is marked by loyalty, arguments, and constant teasing. 40 120 793
• Qin Guan's Master — The Master gave the tower to Qin Guan and negotiated its original agreement with him. He also placed Dao Soil and Great Dao Mountain inside the tower. 1 40 843
• Zhan Chi / Chi Mei — A sentient sword artifact with a complicated past connection to the tower. Chi Mei seeks forgiveness and offers her origin to heal it; together they later form the Tower Sword. 548 577
• Zi Qing — A favored tower occupant. The tower permits her access, supports her cultivation, and uses its Sister Great Dao to assist her resonance with Qin Guan. 696 723 773
• Yin Yang Fa Zu — A captive whose Yin Yang Origin the tower absorbs to nourish itself and its Great Dao. 707 751
• Primordial Tower Spirit — The spirit identifies Little Black Tower as a “Chaos Tower.” Little Black Tower is wary of the Primordial Tower's superior aura but reluctantly agrees to approach it for Qin Guan's goals. 1112 1114
