Abilities and Techniques
Heart Power
Heart Power is an ethereal and intangible force that originates from a cultivator’s inner heart and will. It is a separate cultivation path that can complement and strengthen other aspects of one’s power, such as physical strength, mana, and Dao comprehension. Lei Zhan has achieved remarkable progress in Heart Power, reaching the fifth level, ‘Return to Truth,’ and later the sixth level, ‘World,’ which allows him to construct a vast Heart World comparable to an Eternal World in diameter 256 337. Heart Power is unique in that it cannot be erased by external tribulations; even during his Heart Demon Tribulation, where many memories were obscured, his peak third-level Heart Power remained intact 158. The cultivation of Heart Power is notoriously difficult, but Lei Zhan has obtained several high-tier inheritances, including the Myriad Tribulation Heart Stone and techniques from the Demon-Subduing Dao Palace, as well as secret arts like the Heart Power Soul-Lock, Heart Power Extinction Art, and Illusion World 228 342 336. The Heavenly Heart Exquisite Ring, a treasure from the ancient Chaos Alien Race, is closely tied to Heart Power and requires the fifth level to unlock its secrets 152.
After completing the Heart-Inquiry Tower trial established by the Heart Power Eternal Emperor Dominator Liuyun, Lei Zhan obtained the Heart Power secret art Realm of Desire in a Single Thought 390. The one hundred and eight illusory realms of the tower repeatedly tempered his Dao-heart and gave him exceptional familiarity with the art’s principles, enabling rapid progress in its cultivation 393. His later resistance to the Sith Race Exalt Duobo'e's bewitchment further perfected his Dao-heart and led him to create the seventh stance of the Origin Heart Canon, Wander Through Life 438.
Applications:
- Enhances the power of other techniques; for example, Lei Zhan infused Heart Power into his spear strikes during the Xiantian Thunder Tribulation, fusing it with the Power of Spear, Time, and Space for devastating effect 157.
- Forms the basis for secret arts such as the Heart Power Extinction Art, which annihilates an enemy’s soul and true spirit with a single thought, and the Illusion World, which weaves illusory realms to silently influence opponents 342.
- Used to tame wild beasts like the Nine-Horned Electric Snakes, where Heart Power allowed Lei Zhan to capture them through sheer will 235.
- The Heart World projection enables Lei Zhan to ignore many illusions and exert influence over a vast area; his Heart World expanded to nearly two hundred billion miles in diameter after reaching the sixth level 337.
- Combined with other powers, such as in the Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel, it contributes to Lei Zhan’s ability to rival Ancestral Gods 217.
- The Realm of Desire in a Single Thought creates and manipulates illusory desire realms, testing or influencing targets through their emotions and Dao-hearts 390 393.
- His Heart Power can silently encompass an entire Great World; unless a target possesses Heart Power at a comparable level, such scouting cannot be detected 180.
Limitations:
- Improvement is extremely difficult and requires rare opportunities; Lei Zhan had to exchange 19,500 merit points for the Myriad Tribulation Heart Stone to advance his Heart Power 228.
- The fifth level ‘Return to Truth’ is a major milestone, yet even at that level, Lei Zhan relied on a combination of multiple powers to achieve Ancestral God-level strength; Heart Power alone may not be sufficient against top-tier opponents 217.
- Certain Heart Power techniques are expensive; Lei Zhan found many Heart Power inheritances in the Demon-Subduing Dao Palace but could not afford them with his initial merit points 227.
- The full potential of the Heavenly Heart Exquisite Ring remains locked until one reaches the fifth level of Heart Power, indicating a threshold requirement 152.
- Even Lei Zhan’s powerful Heart Power can be affected by specialists; the Sith Race Exalt Duobo'e nearly induced him to begin Daomerge prematurely through bewitchment 438.
Time and Space Power
Lei Zhan’s primary cultivation path is the Dao of Time and Space, which he has taken to an ultimate level. He first comprehended the origin powers of Time and Space separately, then perfectly combined them to form the Time and Space Power. This power evolved through multiple levels: by the end of his tribulation, his Time and Space Power reached the third level, later advancing to the fourth and fifth levels 157 198 256. His mastery culminated in a profound epiphany during battle, where he realized that the Five Styles of Time and Space—Star-Shattering, Annihilation, Thousand Worlds, Reincarnation, and Instant Shadow—are not separate paths but aspects of a single, ultimate Dao. This enlightenment resonated with the Origin of Time and Space at the core of the universe, elevating his understanding to the ultimate level 356. Lei Zhan’s Unity Canon technique encompasses these five styles, and he continues to explore new directions within time and space 257. The Time and Space Power is versatile, excelling in attack, defense, imprisonment, and even evasion.
Following his breakthrough as a Life-Death Dao Lord, Lei Zhan’s Ultimate Dao of Time and Space gave him combat power comparable to a Second Step Dao Lord despite his First Step cultivation 359. His later comprehension reached a level at which his Dao alone could allow him to effortlessly kill a peak Eternal Emperor such as Great Emperor Meiluobo 443.
Applications:
- Star-Shattering Style: An innovative technique that allowed Lei Zhan to walk his own path, granting him strength comparable to an Ancestral God 217.
- Annihilation Style: A destructive technique that combines time and space to obliterate enemies 257 307.
- Thousand Worlds Style and Reincarnation Style: Used defensively and offensively; the Samsara Style wraps the user in layers of time and space for protection, reflecting the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth 256 257.
- Instant Shadow Style: Allows teleportation-like movement, piercing dimensions to strike instantly across vast distances 356.
- Time Flow Manipulation: Lei Zhan can accelerate time for himself; he once maintained a twenty-fold time flow using his own power, and after studying the Sky-Peering Taihao Tower, he reached an 800-fold balance 222.
- Imprisonment and Suppression: The Dao of Time and Space also provides strong defensive and imprisoning capabilities, making it complete and flawless like a wooden bucket with planks of equal length 342.
- Space Evasion and Travel: With the Time and Space Evasion Technique, Lei Zhan can achieve speeds up to ten times the speed of light at the initial stage, and up to one hundred times at great success 294.
- Time-Space Annihilation: A self-created secret art comparable to the power expected of a Holy City master, counted among the arts required by Supreme Qi’s trial 428.
- Indestructible Body of Time and Space: Lei Zhan’s time-space foundation supports powerful body-protecting methods and enables his divine body to withstand increasingly formidable attacks 365.
Limitations:
- Even at the third level, combining Time and Space Power with other forces still left Lei Zhan struggling against powerful tribulations 157.
- The perfect fusion of Time and Space Power at the fourth level only rivaled a single fifth-level origin power, meaning it is not inherently superior to other top-tier origin powers 217.
- Mastering the ultimate level of the Dao of Time and Space required intense pressure from a battle and a rare epiphany; it is not easily replicable 356.
- The Time and Space Evasion Technique is a master-level secret art, but its full application is limited by Lei Zhan’s current cultivation level; he could only see a simplified version initially 294.
- Advancing further on the Ultimate Dao requires constant tempering, inheritances, and life-or-death experiences; remaining in safety would inhibit his growth 360 431.
Time and Space Evasion Technique
The Time and Space Evasion Technique is a Sovereign-level secret art left by Sovereign Fengnan, found in the Time-Space Hall. It is a complete manual usable up to the Eternal Emperor level, consisting of three parts: upper, middle, and lower. Even the initial stage allows one to surpass many Life-Death Dao Lords on the verge of merging their Daos. Lei Zhan chose this technique over eight other top-tier jade talismans in the hall 294. The technique focuses on speed and evasion by manipulating time and space, effectively increasing movement velocity to multiples of the speed of light.
Applications:
- Initial mastery grants speed of ten times the speed of light; minor success yields fifty times; great success achieves one hundred times the speed of light 294.
- Combined with Lei Zhan’s intrinsic Time and Space Power, it makes him extremely difficult to track or pin down in battle.
- Useful for both escape and rapid assault, complementing his Instant Shadow Style.
Limitations:
- It is a simplified version at Lei Zhan’s current level; the full technique requires higher cultivation stages to unlock.
- The technique is not inherently offensive but enhances mobility; it must be paired with other abilities for combat effectiveness.
- Only one jade talisman could be chosen from the hall, forcing Lei Zhan to forgo other powerful Sovereign-level arts 294.
Nine Source Secret Arts
The Nine Source Secret Arts were created by Daoist Wanshen and are designed to deal with Eternal Emperors. They consist of nine separate secret arts: ninth-level divine fire, divine water, divine thunder, divine wind, divine light, void, and others, all governed by the core Ninth-Level Void. Lei Zhan began cultivating them after spending a thousand years studying time-space techniques, using rare materials and Void Qi of Dao. The Ninth-Level Void commands the other eight, allowing a perfect fusion that produces a power far beyond individual arts 350 367. The arts are particularly effective as a means to reach the Eternal level.
Lei Zhan later cultivated the Nine Source Secret Arts to perfection. At full mastery, they no longer had room for further advancement, and he focused instead on cultivating the Body of Stars and obtaining resources for his other techniques and treasures 372.
Applications:
- When all nine forces are combined, they form a dazzling golden radiance of immense destructive power, capable of threatening Eternal Emperors 367.
- The second layer of the void secret art allows two strands of Void Qi of Dao to combine perfectly, greatly enhancing power; each additional strand multiplies the effect 350.
- The Ganyi Void Realm, a related treasure, already threatens Fourth Step Dao Lords due to its integration of multiple Void Qi strands 350.
Limitations:
- The nine secret arts require extensive resources, including rare materials and Void Qi of Dao, which are not easily acquired 350.
- Mastering all nine arts and their fusion demands significant time and comprehension; Lei Zhan spent a thousand years in closed cultivation before beginning 350.
- Although powerful, the arts are supplementary to Lei Zhan’s core Time and Space techniques and are not his primary offensive means.
Blue Flower Mist
The Blue Flower Mist is a top-tier method that nurtures a cultivator’s soul True Spirit. Lei Zhan cultivated it to a high level, transforming his sea of consciousness into a Blue Flower space containing one thousand three hundred and fifty droplets. Each droplet is a concentrated sum of his divine power, mana, and Heart Power. The technique was created by referencing methods from the Sith Race, a civilization from another Chaos universe, and it fuses three powers into one. After further transformation, the Blue Flower mist’s power rivals that of a Fourth Step Dao Lord 359.
Applications:
- Provides an immense reservoir of combined power; in pure consumption, Lei Zhan surpasses even Second and Third Step Dao Lords 359.
- Strengthens the soul True Spirit, making it comparable to many Dao Lords and contributing to resistance against illusions 336.
- Enhances the power of other techniques when the Blue Flower mist is channeled; Lei Zhan used it to effortlessly master the second layer of the void in the Nine Source Secret Arts 350.
- After Lei Zhan’s Life-Death Dao Lord breakthrough, the mist re-condensed and provided him with sustained close-combat strength rather than merely a short burst of power 359.
Limitations:
- The technique is complex and was created by referencing an alien civilization; it may be difficult to further develop without additional insights.
- Each droplet represents a vast expenditure of power, and replenishing them after heavy use could be time-consuming.
- The mist is primarily a supporting method focused on soul and power storage, not a direct offensive capability.
- At higher realms, raw power from the Blue Flower Mist cannot replace superior Dao comprehension, which remains the foundation of a Life-Death Dao Lord’s combat strength 359.
Other Divine Arts and Secret Techniques
Lei Zhan has cultivated a wide array of divine abilities and secret techniques, many obtained from masters, inheritances, and his own creations. These include the Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel, Water-Fire World Destruction, Star-Plucking Hand, Floating Light and Gliding Shadow, Eye of the Candle Dragon, Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger, Heart-Soaking Method, and the Nine Origins Annihilation, among others 107 240 231 256. His Origin Heart Canon later gained a seventh stance, Wander Through Life, after he resisted Duobo'e’s bewitchment and deepened his understanding of life, death, and his own Dao-heart 438.
Applications:
- Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel and Water-Fire World Destruction: Combined, they form a massive grinding disc of water and fire that can trap and destroy powerful enemies like the Ice Demon Lord 256.
- Star-Plucking Hand: A top-tier divine ability that grants palms comparable to a mid-grade Xiantian Spirit Treasure at the fourth turn; it provides immense explosive power 157 217. At the fifth turn, Lei Zhan’s hands themselves became Xiantian Spirit Treasures 164.
- Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger: A divine sense secret art that utilizes Heart Force for invisible killing 72.
- Nine Origins Annihilation: Based on nine fundamental Origin Talismans that can be continuously combined to form increasingly complex divine patterns, enhancing explosive power 231.
- Heart-Soaking Method and Heart Power Soul-Lock: Minor techniques useful for probing, concealment, and locking onto targets 240 336.
- Body of Stars: A powerful defensive divine ability that raised Lei Zhan’s divine body to a level comparable to some low-grade Eternal magic treasures 372.
- Origin Heart Canon: A self-created canon that incorporates Lei Zhan’s Dao-heart insights; its seventh stance, Wander Through Life, arose from his escape from Duobo'e’s bewitchment 438.
Limitations:
- Many of these techniques are not Lei Zhan’s primary focus; his core strength lies in Time and Space and Heart Power.
- Some techniques, like the Lutian Sword Formation or Xingtian World-Destroying Axe, were discarded because they did not suit his combat style or required excessive resources 107.
- The Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel, while powerful, has room for growth and is self-created, meaning it may lack the refinement of higher-level inheritances 107.
- The Heart-Soaking Method and similar minor arts may have limited effectiveness against truly formidable opponents who possess their own Heart Power defenses.
- Improving Lei Zhan’s defensive divine body further requires immense quantities of rare treasures 372.
Relationships
Masters:
- Patriarch Bodhi: Lei Zhan's primary master, a True God Dao Ancestor and a life-and-death friend of Lei Zhan's former master's master. He first appears after Lei Zhan and Fairy Wangshu are trapped in a chaotic void for over a thousand years, recognizing their talent and offering to take them as disciples 98 99. He sets two rules: absolute obedience and secrecy about their master-student relationship 99. Patriarch Bodhi imparts the Time and Space secret techniques, the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Map, and the Dongming Hunyuan Scripture to Lei Zhan, and later gifts him rare materials for cultivation 101 163. He shows pride in Lei Zhan's growth, acknowledging his power and inviting him to learn the secrets of the Nuwa Faction 219 302. The bond is one of deep mutual respect and care: Bodhi offers guidance, warns of dangers, and provides resources, while Lei Zhan remains filial and obedient 139 302 306.
- Buddha Tathagata (Tathagata): A fellow master of Lei Zhan, the leader of the Buddhist Sect. After observing Lei Zhan for 20 years, Tathagata decides to take him as a disciple, with the consent of Patriarch Bodhi, allowing joint tutelage 148 149. He bestows the Heavenly Heart Exquisite Ring, a treasure from the ancient Chaos Alien Race, hinting it requires powerful Heart Power to unlock 152. Tathagata demonstrates wisdom and foresight, treating Lei Zhan as a valuable disciple and discussing plans against the Chaos Alien Race 223. Lei Zhan calls both Bodhi and Tathagata "Master" 148.
- Mangya Overlord: After Lei Zhan’s rise in the Endless Territory, Mangya Overlord accepts him as a personal disciple, causing a major stir throughout the Mangya Twelve Palaces 346. The Overlord provides access to the Time-Space Palace’s vast libraries and inheritances, guides Lei Zhan’s development on the Ultimate Dao of Time and Space, and later personally brings him to an Otherverse to seek Emperor Qi Huo’s aid in forging Life-Bound Divine Weapons 346 383. Lei Zhan credits Mangya Overlord’s careful guidance and nurturing as indispensable to his ability to embark upon the Ultimate Dao 445.
- Immortal Juhua: Lei Zhan's first master, who led him onto the path of cultivation. Lei Zhan shows deep filial piety: after breakthroughs, he returns to Qianqiu Island with resources and scriptures to extend Juhua's life, and later arranges for his master's reincarnation with the help of Sun Wukong 72 140. Immortal Juhua is grateful and proud, accompanying Lei Zhan to other Great Worlds after the Karmic Fire Tribulation and feeling inspired by Lei Zhan's growth 139 140.
Fellow Disciples and Apprentices:
- Sun Wukong (The Great Sage): Lei Zhan's senior brother under Patriarch Bodhi. They reunite on Flower Fruit Mountain, where Sun Wukong leads a peaceful life. He acknowledges Lei Zhan's impressive foundation and special qi-refining technique, and calls him "junior brother" with great affinity 140 152. When Lei Zhan requests help for Immortal Juhua's reincarnation, Sun Wukong agrees generously, showing their strong brotherly bond 140.
- The Woodcutter (Senior Disciple Brother): The eldest disciple of Patriarch Bodhi, who shows unusual favor to Lei Zhan. He personally comes to see off Lei Zhan's Second Primordial Spirit when it leaves the mountain, indicating that Lei Zhan has captured his approval more than most of his sixteen disciples 121.
- Fairy Wangshu: Became a direct disciple of Patriarch Bodhi alongside Lei Zhan—the fifteenth disciple. After breaking through to Pure Yang True Immortal, she is accepted as Bodhi's direct disciple 100. She and Lei Zhan shared a thousand-year period in the chaotic void, discussing the Dao, especially the Great Dao of Space 98. Their gazes meet without words, and she smiles faintly at him, indicating a close, trusting relationship 100.
- Sanqing, Feng Mo, and other Nuwa Faction leaders: While not direct disciples, they are fellow cultivators and allies under Bodhi's tutelage. They reunite with Lei Zhan after ten thousand years, acknowledging his growth and discussing the exploration of Wanshen Mansion together 302. They show respect and follow Lei Zhan's lead when he intervenes in matters 302.
- Ji Ning: Lei Zhan’s sole disciple. While Lei Zhan’s true body remains in seclusion, his avatar in the Three Realms periodically returns to guide Ji Ning’s cultivation 428. Lei Zhan later notes that he mostly gave Ji Ning pointers at crucial moments rather than controlling his path 445.
Friends and Allies:
- Fairy Kucao: A reincarnated immortal from the Heavenly Realm, first met at a banquet in Guanlan Pavilion. She remains distant and indifferent initially, but later develops a friendly relationship with Lei Zhan, addressing him as "Fellow Daoist Kucao" and "Lei Zhan" 50 146. She and her sister Fairy Lancao host Lei Zhan, and he waits with them for anomalies in the mountain's natural energy that might indicate his master's presence 146.
- Celestial God Yin Yue: Offers to help Lei Zhan against Shaoyan Chou after Lei Zhan triggers the Karmic Fire Tribulation. They agree to aid each other against their respective enemies, forming a reciprocal alliance 139.
- Lu Dongbin: Shows interest in mentoring Immortal Juhua, but Lei Zhan declines. However, Lu Dongbin gifts Juhua a sword technique before leaving, demonstrating generosity and respect for Lei Zhan's wishes 148.
- Wuyan Star Lord and cultivators: Express gratitude to Lei Zhan for saving them from the Heart Spirit General and learn about the fate of Feixiao Chaos Immortal. They are in awe of his power and show deference 302.
- Suiren, Fuxi, Shennong, and other Nuwa Faction powers: They gather with Bodhi and Tathagata to discuss major matters, and show warmth toward Lei Zhan, acknowledging his strength after he slays Buxiu 188 219. Suiren speaks to him gently, and Lei Zhan is invited to consult with them 188.
- Tianqingzi: Initially associated with Lei Zhan’s operations around Tianmu Holy City, Tianqingzi becomes a loyal subordinate and intelligence source. Lei Zhan rebukes him for shortcomings but encourages him to improve 372 374.
- Dao Lord Yifeng: Originally Lei Zhan’s servant, Yifeng later becomes a First Step Dao Lord after comprehending and combining three Strongest Daos. Lei Zhan rewards and supports his ambition, including granting him Emperor Xuanxiao’s formation Dao legacy 374 390.
- Dominator Changli: Changli becomes Lei Zhan’s follower and swears a Life-Bound Oath to protect the Three Realms for one million Chaos Epochs after Lei Zhan’s Daomerge 431.
Romantic Interests/Close Companions:
- Fairy Wangshu: Beyond being a fellow disciple, the relationship has undertones of deep emotional connection. They were trapped together for over a thousand years, cultivating side by side, and her breakthrough to Pure Yang True Immortal is a shared victory. Her smile toward him after being offered discipleship suggests a special bond 98 100. She travels with his avatar for nearly five hundred years, experiencing life among mortals 223. She is consistently at his side during critical moments.
- Immortal Kucao (Fairy Kucao): While not explicitly romantic, their interaction—Lei Zhan being initially captivated by her beauty, and later addressing her as a close companion—implies a potential romantic interest. She remains reserved but allows proximity, and they cooperate on matters concerning his master's reincarnation 50 146. By the time Kucao’s safety is threatened, Lei Zhan refers to her as his Dao companion and seeks the Woodcutter’s assistance to determine whether she has been enslaved through Heart Power 206 210.
- Wangshu and Kucao: During his Heart Demon Tribulation, Lei Zhan acknowledges that both women occupy the softest place in his heart. Although he recognizes their feelings and his own, he had previously avoided confronting the matter because he felt unable to give them the future they deserved 159.

Over the following millennia, Lei Zhan accumulated enlightenment, integrating the fifth-level Power of Time and Space and comprehending the Nine-Layer Chaos Restriction, while also sending clones to acquire Nine Flame Paste from dangerous forbidden lands 225 229 238 263. After breaking through to the World God and Chaos Immortal levels in a chaotic space, condensing thirty-six thousand Divine Crystals and one hundred and forty-four droplets of power in his Blue Flower space, he hosted a celebratory banquet for the great powers of the Three Realms and then secretly dispatched his Second Primordial Spirit to explore the Endless Chaos 279. During his over three hundred years of wandering, Lei Zhan tempered himself in ruins, brought his 'Annihilation Style' to the Strongest Dao level, and neared comprehension of the 'Star-Shattering Style' 327. He ventured into the Wanshen Mansion, where he defeated an endless sea of Golden Armored Divine Generals and a golden-robed emperor using his Heart Power and mastery of the Dao of Time and Space, and learned from the mansion's guardians about its master's legacy 312. After completing cultivation in the Time-Space Tower Forest, reaching the fifth level of the Nine Sources Void, he claimed the Eternal Divine Weapon 'Red Moon Wheel' left by Dao Lord Ruosang and received guidance from Dao Lord Lanzhou before setting out toward the Damo Domain 277 351. Ultimately, Lei Zhan returned to the Three Realms after realizing the Ultimate Dao of Time and Space, merged his eighteen clones, and simultaneously broke through with his main body and Second Primordial Spirit to become a Life-Death Dao Lord, causing a massive disturbance in the chaos and inspiring the powerhouses of the Three Realms 358.
As a Life-Death Dao Lord, Lei Zhan created a Dharma Body to guard the Three Realms while continuing his own journey of tempering and cultivation 360. He entered the Otherverse under Mangya Overlord’s guidance, pursued the forging of Life-Bound Divine Weapons through Emperor Qi Huo, and completed Dominator Liuyun’s Heart-Inquiry Tower to obtain Realm of Desire in a Single Thought 383 390. In later adventures, he discovered and refined Azure Wave Star, a Sith Race star-type war machine, then seized Hou Five City and renamed it Guiyi City 417 428. While his true body cultivated in the Qinghua Immortal Mansion and developed arts required by Supreme Qi’s trial, his Second Primordial Spirit travelled through the Eight Great Source Domains, gathered followers, confronted Sith Race threats, and continued preparing for the eventual Daomerge 428 431. His resistance to Duobo'e’s bewitchment and his eventual slaying of Great Emperor Meiluobo brought major advances in his Dao-heart and settled the karma he had inherited from Daoist Wanshen 438 450.
