Background / History
Original life and transmigration
Before transmigrating, Wang Yuan was an ordinary young factory worker who regretted not studying harder and imagined that a “golden finger” could change his life. He accepted the Heavens System without recognizing its manipulation. 1 127
The System sent him to an alien world where Fate Suppression prevented both Fate and a Protagonist Halo from functioning. Unable to adapt to the environment, Wang Yuan became ill and died. 1
Remnant soul and rise as Negary
Wang Yuan survived as an incomplete remnant soul with no sight or hearing; instead, he possessed a spherical Perception Field that initially reached three meters through open air but barely penetrated solid objects. The thirteen Mutated Crows connected to him supplied the cooling essence needed to keep his soul from dispersing. 2 3
After discovering humans, he learned that death released white vapor. By absorbing it, he gained Vitality Qi, Soul Qi, fragments of memories, emotions, and eventually human language. He used this growth to infect, kill, and dominate the Kexi villagers through pathogens and fear. 4 6 9 14
He established Komoro as his agent, turned the village into a source of experimental subjects, bred and modified pathogens, and intended to exterminate the Kente People for both security and research material. 13 16 17
Wang Yuan later learned that he had no Gusa, or true self/true spirit. His soul was a contaminated remainder of the original Wang Yuan, making his Virus Control ability inherently limited and leaving him unsuitable for higher-world cultivation. He rejected reincarnation through an unborn child because he would rather seek another path than submit to a new true spirit. 21
When offered a chance to become the original Wang Yuan again, he refused. He chose instead to abandon that identity and officially become Negary. 32
Resurrection and the coordinates of Negary's Star
Negary later used information from the original Wang Yuan to resurrect him in the body of a dead Soul-Scorching Flame awakener. The revived Wang Yuan retained human thoughts and regrets, but carried a flame within his soul and became the coordinates of Negary's Star. 648 654
The New Trinity Organization hunted him because his existence could threaten Negary's seal. Wang Yuan escaped repeated attempts on his life, often aided by improbable chains of accidents, and briefly allied with Zhu Ping during one escape. 647 648 651
After comprehending more of Negary's nature and his own mutable innate state, Wang Yuan awakened the authority of Negary's Dream. He stopped fleeing, defeated the Flame Extinguishers, survived Iron Mask's attacks, and rapidly developed his own martial arts through combat. 654 655 656
Appearance
After resurrection, Wang Yuan initially appeared as a sunny, ordinary-looking young man around 1.75 meters tall. The awakening of Negary's Dream and his Innately Unfixed Body transformed him into a far more imposing figure. 647 655 657
- Grew to roughly 1.9 meters tall, with a robust and proportioned physique. 655
- Regenerated severe facial injuries through visible flesh buds. 656
- Lost his original hair and grew long black hair to his shoulders. 656
- Possessed red-lit eyes tied to his authority over dreams. 655
- Emitted a supernatural charm that compelled weaker lifeforms to feel instinctive attraction, reverence, or submission; this effect faded as his martial body stabilized. 654 657
Personality
As a human, Wang Yuan was naive, overconfident, and eager to believe that he was a destined protagonist. Death and betrayal by the Heavens System replaced that confidence with terror and desperation. 1 127
As a remnant soul, he became obsessed with strength and domination because he viewed weakness as the cause of his own suffering. He deliberately absorbed memories and emotions from the dead in an attempt to reshape his personality, recognizing that he remained careless, easily carried away by success, and fundamentally ordinary. 5 8 9
The resurrected Wang Yuan is more optimistic and recognizably human than Negary, though he remains conflicted by their shared origin. He feels guilt over misleading Zhu Ping, resents being treated as a disposable coordinate, and chooses to face danger himself rather than rely entirely on outside rescue. 648 650 651
His later growth centers on developing independent judgment. Rather than blindly preserving an inherited idea of kindness or justice, he seeks to decide for himself what is worth protecting and pursuing. 578
Abilities & Skills
Remnant-Soul Perception and Interference Force
Wang Yuan's original supernatural capabilities came from his state as a remnant soul.
- Perception Field initially extended three meters through air, but its range dropped sharply inside solid matter. 2
- After absorbing more Soul Qi, his field expanded to roughly six meters through air and three centimeters into an unprotected human body. 6
- Could use Interference Force to damage a victim's brain through thin cranial areas. 6
- Could manipulate a corpse's vocal system to imitate speech, though his early speech sounded unnatural. 9
- His perception and control were hindered by the white vapor surrounding living humans. 6
Pathogen Control and Biological Experimentation
Wang Yuan's defining early ability was Virus Control: commanding pathogens, engineering variants, and using infected lifeforms as extensions of himself.
- Connected to and commanded thirteen Mutated Crows, which scouted, captured prey, and sustained his soul. 3 4
- Infected humans to weaken their protective vapor, influence their consciousness, or turn them into experimental subjects. 6 13 15
- Created pathogen-based bodies with layered internal structures; destroying an outer layer did not necessarily reach his true core. 27 28
- Named the death-released white vapor Vitality Qi and the restorative cool aura Soul Qi. 14
- Developed pathogen variants including the Progenitor Pathogen, Righteous One Pathogen, Diffuse pathogen, Spread germ, and experimental Dragon Blood-related strains. 14 15 24 32
- His Virus Control had a maximum limit because he lacked a true spirit. 21
Memory and Emotion Absorption
By absorbing Soul Qi from the deceased, Wang Yuan acquired fragments of their memories and emotions.
- Learned human language after absorbing the vapor released by a dead human. 4
- Received intense final emotions such as fear, resentment, anger, and attachment to life. 4
- Used selected emotions from the dead as material to artificially reshape his own character. 9
- Extracted information about soul transmigration and the nature of the true spirit from the Black Crow Flesh Mass. 20 21
Authority of Negary's Dream
Following resurrection, Wang Yuan awakened authority over Negary's Dream.
- Could command and alter phenomena within the dream world. 655
- Formed barriers that twisted or redirected incoming bullets and other attacks. 655
- Applied force directly to targets within his field of vision, initially causing explosive head wounds and later more subtle fatal internal attacks. 655
- Used dream authority to manipulate spatial matter and form defensive structures. 656
- Collapsed the black-and-white Impression Space and expelled Heartfire Organization members from the dream realm. 661
Innately Unfixed Body and Body Arts
Wang Yuan's innate martial body can modify itself according to his will and adapt to external conditions. 654 656
- Beast Gun Art — Enhances physical capability, animal instincts, smell, and sensory awareness; produces gunpowder internal energy that can empower strikes and hidden weapons. 656
- Immovable Cosmic Light Mantra — Accumulates spatial matter into the defensive force known as Immovable Cosmic Light. 656
- Great Skyscraper Collapse Art — Cultivates shattering internal energy capable of breaking space at profound levels. 656
- Void Inch Technique — Created after analyzing Brother Li's marks and teleportation ability; enabled Wang Yuan to seize Brother Li across space. 657
- His hair can become needle-like projectiles that enter targets’ bodies and spread through their blood vessels. 657
Relationships
- Negary — Wang Yuan's successor identity and later resurrector. Wang Yuan considers himself both Wang Yuan and Negary, but not wholly either; Negary treats him as a useful chess piece in a larger conflict with the Main God World. 32 525 648 654
- Heavens System — The system that enabled Wang Yuan's transmigration, then manipulated him and left him to die in an incompatible world. 1 127
- Komoro — First major human follower and village agent. Wang Yuan psychologically dominated him after the deaths of the hunting party. 9 14
- The Mutated Crows — Wang Yuan's earliest servants and survival mechanism; they supplied essence, scouted, hunted, and carried out his commands. 3 4
- Nara — Daughter of Isabella and a key subject of Wang Yuan's Dragon Blood research. The pathogens within her fused with her body and became beyond his direct control. 21 24
- Zhu Ping — Rescued Wang Yuan during the New Trinity Organization's pursuit. Wang Yuan helped complete Zhu Ping's escape plan, then promised to repay the favor. 647 648
- Killer J — A colleague who later introduced Wang Yuan as “God Before, God After, Lord of Paradox.” 729
- Flame Extinguishers — Dream Hound-fused operatives who attempted to eliminate Wang Yuan as the coordinates of an evil god. 655 656
- Brother Li — A Heartfire Organization observer whom Wang Yuan detected, seized through space, and forced to kneel. 656 657

Trivia
- Wang Yuan stated that, as a remnant soul without a true spirit, he had no true name; “Wang Yuan” and “Negary” were therefore equivalent labels to him at the time. 27
- His original human self was twenty years old when he transmigrated. 494
- The revived Wang Yuan's recurring improbable escapes were accompanied by a coin-like sound and chains of accidental events. 647
