Background

Fang Yu awakens as a transmigrator in the body of a general from the Starting Point Orphanage in the Great Primordial World. Recognizing Fang Han as his brother and a crucial source of future opportunities, he resolves to support him while pursuing his own cultivation. He subdues the Seven Mysteries Sect to locate the Heaven-Palm Bottle, a treasure capable of ripening spiritual herbs and carrying time-related laws. Zhang Xiuer discovers the bottle and voluntarily becomes his servant. 1

After entering the Mortal World, Fang Yu conceals his actual capabilities while investigating its cultivation system. An Immortal Master identifies his thunder-attribute heterogeneous spiritual root, drawing the attention of the Five Friends of Mount Meng. Fang Yu tolerates their attempts to use him to gain entry to a major sect until he discovers their plan to seize his body, then kills Meng Shan the First and Meng Shan the Second. 11 15 24

Personality

Fang Yu is calculating, patient, and highly pragmatic. He prepares escape routes before approaching dangerous cultivators, hides his cultivation when disclosure would invite greed, and treats resources, techniques, and alliances as tools for advancement. 11 15 22

He is confident to the point of provocation when he possesses the advantage. Fang Yu readily challenges stronger enemies, makes uncompromising demands in negotiations, and shows little mercy toward factions that threaten him or those close to him. 151 384 524

His concern is selective rather than universal. He protects family, trusted allies, and subordinates, but openly disregards the wider consequences faced by strangers when they do not affect those he values. 113 627
