Fang Yang

Biodata

Power Progression

Background

Fang Yang arrives at Mount Tai with memories of a past life and deliberately boards the Ancient Bronze Coffin carried by Nine Dragons, seeking cultivation opportunities on the Big Dipper. He keeps his foreknowledge private, believing open interference would invite danger. He begins with only three Fate Points, a Storage Bracelet, and access to a card pool that exchanges Fate Points for cards and treasures 1.

He initially enters the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven, where his unusual insight and rapid progress draw attention. Seeking a larger stage and protection from the Ruthless Lineage, he chooses Yao Guang Sacred Land as his path forward; its Holy Lord lineage can contend with the Ruthless Lineage, unlike the closed Ji and Jiang families or female-only Yaochi 7 12.

Li Daoming accepts Fang Yang as a disciple and later considers nurturing him for the Holy Son position. Fang Yang’s advancement through the Dao Palace in roughly a year establishes him as an exceptional, if initially mortal-bodied, talent 15. He eventually defeats the prior Yao Guang Holy Son in two moves and succeeds him as the new Holy Son 51.

Fang Yang’s victories over younger-generation rivals, including the Golden-Winged Little Peng King, establish him as the Eastern Venerable and the leading prodigy of the Eastern Wasteland 102. His rise continues beyond the role of prodigy: he becomes an Immortal Platform Mighty Figure in under ten years of cultivation, founds Green Lotus Hall, revives the Taiyin Divine Sect, and succeeds Li Daoming as Holy Lord of Yao Guang 136 150 212 229.

Although initially confirmed to possess no special physique, Fang Yang steadily transforms his Mortal Body through body-refining resources, divine blood, heavenly tribulations, and the Creation Source Eye. His physical foundation eventually surpasses conventional special constitutions and is recognized by the Flame Emperor and Yellow Emperor as an unprecedented Immortal Body 19 280 355 453.

After advancing to Great Saint, Fang Yang returns to Earth and encounters the Flame Emperor, Yellow Emperor, and Laozi at Hangu Pass. The first two regard him as a distant blood descendant and assist in using Chiyou’s body and divine pill to temper him for future catastrophes, including the Dark Turmoil 380 381.

Following his eventual attainment of emperorship, Fang Yang begins planning a separate Dao lineage while retaining his regard for Yao Guang’s elders and institutions. He also expands his activities beyond the Shrouding the Heavens world through the All-Heavens Card Pool, appearing in the Battle Through the Heavens world as the Xiao Family youth known as Xiao Yan while identifying himself as Fang Yang 467 468 472.

After integrating the immortal sword’s Dao laws and reaching the Legend realm, Fang Yang begins creating Other Selves across multiple worlds. These identities allow him to cultivate distinct systems, acquire resources and Fate Points, and provide a means of revival should his primary body perish while an Other Self survives 478 479.

His later Other Selves include a prince in the Yang God world, a martial artist in the Swallowed Star world, and Yang Jun of the Supreme of One World. Through these manifestations, he gains access to the True Martial Sect, the Virtual Universe Company, and numerous higher-system inheritances while continuing to strengthen his main body 486 508 511 524. Another Other Self grows up alongside Shi Hao in Stone Village and cultivates the Grotto-Heaven system 497 498.

In the Supreme of One World, Fang Yang becomes involved in a struggle over Underworld authority. After defeating King Yama and repelling a manifested attack from the Fengdu Emperor, he takes control of the Ghost-God True Spirit Picture and recruits Wang Siyuan to administer his growing forces. He regards faction-building as a means of gaining authority for his pursuit of the Creation and Other Shore realms, rather than an end in itself 548.

Appearance

Fang Yang’s appearance is altered by cultivation and treasures. After consuming Sacred Fruit, his physical appearance becomes that of a twelve- or thirteen-year-old despite being older than twenty; later accounts commonly describe him as a youthful prodigy 8 81.

• His blood energy is compared to the morning sun 86.
• Tempering in the Mortal World Cauldron gives his skin a translucent, glazed-jade quality and the bearing of an enlightened monk 172.
• After cultivating the Dragon Transformation Blood Quenching Method, he gains a True Dragon bloodline, golden eyes, and can transform between human and dragon forms 344 345.
• During his dragon transformation, his hair and irises become brilliant gold; he can return them to their normal black color upon resuming human form 344 345.
• His blood remains bright red rather than the purple blood associated with the Heavenly Tyrant Body 286.
• As his Immortal Body matures, he can move in natural harmony with the Great Dao, giving observers the impression of an Innate Dao Fetus or Chaos Body 364 453.
• By using the Seventy-Two Transformations, he can assume the form of a supreme Golden Crow whose bloodline purity surpasses that of the Dao-attaining Golden Crow Emperor 464.

Personality

Fang Yang is ambitious, strategic, and intensely focused on cultivation. From the beginning, he withholds dangerous knowledge, evaluates the political value of sects and allies, and treats Fate Points as a resource to be earned through carefully chosen conflicts 1 31. He avoids needless exposure—such as concealing a powerful sword from the Great Xia Dynasty—while using disguises, formations, divination, and intelligence gathering to control engagements 31 133 267.

He is practical rather than impulsive. Even after spending 3,000 Fate Points on cards, he does not rush to use every reward, preferring to study and reserve them for future use 17. He can be outwardly courteous and honors explicit promises, including aiding the Yaochi Saintess with the Stone Kings and returning an ancient scripture fragment to the Human King Hall 115 208.

His conduct toward enemies is frequently ruthless: he kills challengers for Fate Points, destroys hostile forces, absorbs enemies’ memories, and uses the God-Crossing Technique to turn a spacecraft crew into servants 127 133 249. However, he distinguishes between threats and innocents, sparing child assassins at a Human World stronghold and healing injured Yao Guang disciples with Yang fire 35 139.

Fang Yang remains grateful toward people and institutions that aided him while he was weak. After becoming a Quasi-Emperor, he remembers the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven’s early kindness, sends it a gift, and expresses his intention to restore the bodies of heroic spirits 423. Even after attaining emperorship, he does not put on airs before Li Daoming, Li Daoqing, and Wang Zheng 467.

In other worlds, Fang Yang remains deliberately restrained when revealing his talent. While entering the Virtual Universe Company, he conceals the full extent of his talent to avoid attention from hostile peak races, even while displaying Time and Space Law comprehension sufficient to shock immortal experts 524.

He is increasingly conscious that higher powers may manipulate fate and opportunities around him. After being unable to prevent Daoist Chonghe’s death while trapped in enlightenment, he resolves to endure apparent manipulation, settle the resulting karmic debt, and eventually surpass those treating him as a chess piece 532.

His pursuit of higher realms takes precedence over personally governing every faction he establishes. Recognizing Wang Siyuan’s administrative ability, Fang Yang recruits him to manage his forces so that he can concentrate on Creation, the Other Shore, and immortality 548.

• Uses the Heavenly River Visualization Method to control the two holy powers rather than recklessly cultivating the conflicting scriptures together 136.
