The reason Tang Shixun had become Supreme Clarity Sect's most famous Hidden Astral-Wind Gold was, first, his cultivation, and second, his inaction.
In short, after discovering that he possessed this nightmarish constitution, the guy had not concealed it in the slightest and simply announced it outright.
Then he became inactive, but the key was that he was still at the Ninth Layer of Emergence from Dust, only one step away from Core Embrace.
