Background / History

Duan Fan originally awakened a thirty-centimeter Writing Brush Martial Soul with a black handle, snow-white wolf-hair bristles, and innate soul power of five. He later used the Fantasy System to raise his innate soul power to ten, achieving Innate Full Soul Power. 1

After gaining a self-destiny modification opportunity, Duan Fan evolved the Writing Brush into the Fantasy Pen. Though initially unable to make written words or arbitrary drawings real, the evolved Martial Soul gave him the distinct sensation that it possessed such potential. 4

Duan Fan chose the summon-creation development path for the Fantasy Pen. Its Soul Rings subsequently allowed him to draw Soul Beast creations based on the beasts whose rings he absorbed, beginning with the Dream-Weaving Spider. 6 8

Appearance

The Fantasy Pen retains the shape of a large writing brush but gradually changes as it acquires Soul Rings.

• Initially about thirty centimeters long, with a black shaft, a bulging ferrule, and snow-white wolf-hair bristles. 1
• Upon evolution, white patterns appeared along the black handle. 4
• After its First Soul Ring, it gained subtle white thread-like markings on its shaft. 8
• After its Second Soul Ring, several faint red patterns appeared and its length increased by roughly two centimeters. 37
• By the time Duan Fan possessed five Soul Rings, it exceeded fifty centimeters in length; two golden lines marked the black shaft, while its tip carried a dark-golden sheen. 51

Abilities & Skills

Creation Through Drawing

The Fantasy Pen manifests drawn Soul Beasts as tangible combat creations. Its drawings become more rapid, numerous, and powerful as Duan Fan's cultivation rises. 26 42

• The creations can physically fight, move independently under Duan Fan's control, and use abilities associated with their represented Soul Beast. 8
• Dream-Weaving Spider creations are immune to mental control and mental attacks, as demonstrated against Hu Liena's mental-corrosion flames. 24
• The Fantasy Pen's manifested creatures are not unrestricted: each Soul Skill produces a particular Soul Beast form rather than any image Duan Fan can imagine. 9 45

Life from the Brush

The First Soul Skill creates Dream-Weaving Spiders based on the Dream-Weaving Spider Soul Ring. 8

• The spiders can spray silk and weave it into larger Giant Spiders. 8
• Early creations possessed combat strength comparable to six-hundred-year Soul Beasts. 9
• Duan Fan initially could draw three spiders in total, and they could remain until dismissed or destroyed. 9
• Following the Second Soul Ring, he could draw around ten spiders; his drawing speed later fell below three seconds per spider. 36 42
• At five rings, he could manifest ten Dream-Weaving Spiders with four-thousand-year-level auras. 51

Nine-Tails

The Second Soul Skill manifests a nine-tailed Black Flame Demon Fox derived from the Black Flame Demon Fox Soul Ring. 36

• A single fox initially possessed the strength of a two-thousand-year Soul Beast. 36
• Duan Fan could create four in succession at his then-current soul power. 36
• By five rings, he could summon eight Nine-Tails Black Flame Demon Foxes with ten-thousand-year-level combat power. 51

Three-Eyed Griffin Manifestation

The Third Soul Skill manifests a Three-Eyed Griffin capable of aerial combat. 45 47

• The first documented creation exceeded five meters in body length and had a wingspan of nearly twelve meters. 47
• Its closed third eye contained energy assessed at roughly nine-thousand-year Soul Beast level, surpassing the 6,300-year ring source. 47
• By five rings, Duan Fan could summon five Three-Eyed Griffins with twenty-thousand-year-level combat power. 51

Golden Armored Earth Dragon Manifestation

The Fourth Soul Skill summons Golden Armored Earth Dragons. 52

• Duan Fan could create four at once. 52
• Each dragon exceeded twelve meters in length and possessed the aura of a 35,000-year Soul Beast. 52

Starry Night

The Fifth Soul Skill manifests Starry Night Deer from the 40,000-plus-year Starry Night Deer Soul Ring. 52

• Duan Fan created two deer-like Soul Beasts with indigo, starlit fur and crystal antlers. 52
• Each possessed the aura of a 50,000-year Soul Beast. 52

Trivia

• The Fantasy Pen was evolved from a Martial Soul that Su Yuntao had judged to be a “trash Spirit.” 1 4
• Duan Fan's intended long-term goal for the Fantasy Pen is to draw anything he can imagine. 26
• Its First Soul Skill's visual style changed from silver-white sketch lines to rapid black ink-wash drawings after Duan Fan obtained his thousand-year Second Soul Ring. 8 42
