Background / History

Original Ancestor, whose personal name was Yuan, led humanity from the status of a merely powerful race to a pinnacle force. He roamed both the Original Universe and the Cosmic Sea, building humanity’s strength through his victories; other Universe Supreme Masters avoided provoking him, and his reputation was unmatched across the Cosmic Sea 212.

He created the Virtual Universe, a secret technique capable of hosting countless cultivators simultaneously, allowing even Universe Venerables and Universe Masters to study laws and practice secret techniques while consuming almost no energy. Its self-sustaining circulation was described as comparable to that of the Original Universe itself 212.

At some point, Original Ancestor attempted to seize control of the Original Universe. His opposition to the Original Universe and its supreme rules resulted in permanent suppression, leaving him unable to directly intervene in humanity’s crises despite remaining active and omnipotent within the Virtual Universe 246 287 367.

During his suppression, he observed Ren Ze’s unconventional cultivation and used Ren Ze’s displayed methods to deduce the embryonic forms of the Three Thousand Great Daos. He viewed Ren Ze’s path as a possible means of escaping the Original Universe’s restrictions, though Ren Ze later concluded that this route could not simply be replicated by others 168 212 287 344.

The Original Universe’s origin will promised his release as a reward for resolving the Realm Beast calamity. After Ren Ze, Luo Feng, and Giant Axe fulfilled that condition, Original Ancestor returned to humanity and reunited with Chaos City Leader and Giant Axe 343 366.

Appearance

Original Ancestor appears as a slightly slender man in simple white robes. His calm smile and presence make those around him feel tranquil, while his eyes are described as holding mysteries of the universe’s operation 212 287.

• White robes and a refined, slender build 212
• Jade-like eyes and a faint, relaxed smile 287
• A serene presence that affects space-time and calms those nearby 366
• His suppressed manifestation takes the form of an immeasurably tall statue surrounded by chaotic currents and complete law fluctuations 212

Personality

Original Ancestor is serene, observant, and deeply devoted to humanity. Even when permanently suppressed, he continued watching human meetings, crises, and the growth of later generations from within the Virtual Universe 287.

He possesses the pride and curiosity of an unparalleled genius. He was astonished by the Rhinoceros Emperor Game, admired Ren Ze and Luo Feng’s growth, and personally participated in solving the game despite his confinement 287 290.

His return does not diminish his humility. He regards Ren Ze and Luo Feng as benefactors for enabling his freedom and attempts to bow to them in gratitude, an act they immediately stop out of reverence for him 367.
