Power Progression

Background

Xu Changqing awakened the wisdom of his previous life while an outer sect disciple assigned to Dongting Immortal Sect's spirit fields after awakening a Wood Spirit Root. Facing expulsion after two failed assessments, he discovered that harvesting spirit plants increased his lifespan and that this lifespan could be exchanged for technique upgrades through the Shennong System. 1 2

With Li Sancai's advice, Xu raised the Evergreen Formula and hired Han Su to replenish his field's earth qi in exchange for one-tenth of the harvest. He used the improved field to pass his final assessment with exactly one thousand jin of spirit rice, exposing Zhang Er's sabotage accusation as baseless and becoming a formal disciple. 2 3 6

As a formal disciple, Xu received a second-grade spirit field and deliberately chose an isolated plot near an abandoned cave. He built his position through high-yield spirit-rice cultivation, side work harvesting for senior disciples, trade with Hu Bugui, and paid cooperation with cultivators of other spiritual roots. 9 11 14 15

His farming, winemaking, and system-assisted mastery enabled him to advance from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment in three years, then establish himself as an unusually wealthy and productive spirit farmer. He concealed the mutated rice beneath Stone Mountain, developed multiple alternate identities, acquired additional Spiritual Roots, and rose to become the Spirit Fields' Spirit Cultivator Envoy and later Grain Lord. 57 270 375 624

After forming an Earth-Grade Golden Core, Xu became Mu Ji's core disciple on Azurewood Peak while retaining responsibility for the spirit fields. He gradually united his Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Lightning paths, founded the Azurewood Sect from the surviving peaks of Dongting Immortal Sect, and became its master during the Eastern Domain's crisis. 443 583 1043 1047

Xu later entered the Northern Dipper Star Region as the Great Dao Venerable's personal disciple and continued personally cultivating spirit fields despite his exalted status. Across millennia, he developed the Xu Family into a far-reaching power while progressing through Void Refinement and Body Integration, eventually becoming an Origin Dao cultivator beyond ordinary Five-Element and Heavenly Dao limitations. 1107 1215 1280 1318

Appearance

Xu is described as having an ordinary appearance, which causes others to underestimate his ability and connections. After becoming a formal disciple, he exchanges the gray robes of the outer sect for white robes bearing a green rice-sprout emblem. 11 35

As his cultivation and authority increase, his ordinary features are increasingly overshadowed by an imposing, controlled bearing. Even when he deliberately restrains his aura, other cultivators perceive the majesty of a powerful sect master and high-realm cultivator. 626 943

• White formal-disciple robes with a green rice sprout embroidered over the chest. 11
• A “wood” spirit seal appears on his right palm while using the Wood-Spirit Entanglement Art. 13
• Tall enough that Bai Ling'er reaches only his chest. 25
• Uses the Illusion Mask to alter his face, voice, aura, and apparent identity without leaving physical traces. 269 270
• His fire-attribute identity, Zhurong, projects a domineering and violent presence sharply different from his restrained public persona. 270
• As a senior cultivator, his calm gaze and natural authority make others reluctant to meet his eyes despite his outwardly ordinary appearance. 943

Personality

Xu is cautious, patient, and intensely pragmatic. He recognizes the danger posed by stronger disciples such as Zhang Er and deliberately hides the true extent of his cultivation, harvests, and plant-sensing ability rather than attracting attention before he can defend himself. 1 4 25 40

He treats cultivation and farming as long-term pursuits. Rather than recklessly spending lifespan or resources, he weighs future needs—postponing the Master-level upgrade of Spirit Rice Wine until he has a better spell to support it, investing in manure and rainfall, and preserving mutated spirit rice for propagation instead of immediate consumption. 16 25 49

Despite his guarded nature, Xu reciprocates sincere help. He thanks Li Sancai for his guidance, continues employing Han Su after their initial contract, shares resources with Hu Bugui, and cares for his spirit animals. 7 24 38 50

His later power does not erase his cautious habits. He continues concealing cultivation breakthroughs, testing dangerous routes through puppets or spirit beasts first, and maintaining alternate identities to protect his family, spirit plants, and Portable Space. 250 489 647

Xu increasingly becomes a responsible leader and patriarch. He supports old companions, protects disciples and family, creates cooperative systems for spirit farmers, and accepts political or military responsibility when circumstances make withdrawal impossible. 624 692 715 1043

Although he prefers farming, domestic peace, and steady self-improvement over prestige or fighting, Xu can become frighteningly decisive when his family or close friends are threatened. Hu Bugui and Lin Xiaoyan's deaths drove him to pursue Zhu Hong with grief-fueled fury. 175 999

Abilities & Skills

Shennong System

Xu's system grants lifespan for harvesting spirit plants and allows him to spend accumulated days to force advancement in cultivation techniques, spells, and practical skills. 1 2 16

• Harvesting high-quality or rare spirit plants can produce substantial lifespan gains. 15 30
• Lifespan can be converted directly into comprehension and upgrades. 4 7 16
• The system enabled him to restore and improve the incomplete Ironwood Armor Art. 39
• Its advantages are kept secret; Xu believes revealing his yields too early would draw dangerous attention. 4 25
• His immense lifespan later allows him to perfect Earth- and Heaven-Grade cultivation methods, spells, professions, and secret arts at costs that would be impossible for ordinary cultivators. 626 758 695
• After reaching Body Integration and fully mastering the Origin Dao Heavenly Scripture, the system no longer requires lifespan for its advancement; his realm becomes the remaining restriction. 1318

Evergreen Formula

A low-tier wood cultivation technique that became the foundation of Xu's farming and cultivation success.

• At the fifth layer, increases cultivation speed by 50% and crop yield by 40%. 7
• Senses detailed plant conditions within ten zhang and identifies the best time to harvest. 7
• Can identify when a crop's quality will improve if left to mature longer. 30 40
• Allows Xu to detect abnormalities such as pests, weak growth, and mutated spirit rice. 13 39
• It was eventually superseded by the Green Lotus Creation Art, Four Seasons Scripture, Auspicious Grain Record, Azure Emperor Longevity Art, and Creation Heavenly Scripture, but remained the basis of his early agricultural Dao. 60 266 626 758 1109

Wood-Spirit Entanglement Art

Xu's primary offensive spell, chosen from the three high-tier spells offered to formal disciples. 10

• First-layer vines possess fifty jin of pulling force and temporarily immobilize targets. 13
• At the third layer, can create Black Iron Vines with piercing force. 16
• Can control spirit plants within a ten-zhang radius and rapidly plant seedlings in prepared soil. 24
• At Late Qi Refining, Xu can form at least twenty Black Iron Vines while consuming only two-ninths of his spiritual power. 24
• At Foundation Establishment, his control increases to one hundred Black Iron Vines. 57

Spirit Rice Wine Brewing

Xu learned a recipe from Hu Bugui and developed it into an Expert-level practical skill. 12 16

• Produces spirit rice wine valuable enough to sell for ten low-grade spirit stones per jin. 19
• Expert-level Grade-One Spirit Rice Wine increases spiritual-qi absorption speed by 20% for one hour. 24
• Began brewing Second-Grade Spirit Wine after acquiring the required resources. 37
• His wine-making skill earns Pei Mo's admiration and future business. 35
• His later Yellow Rice Wine, Iceheart Jade-Flask Wine, Heavenly Horse Milk Wine, and other brews become important cultivation resources and sources of long-term commercial influence. 80 223 457

Ironwood Armor Art

A high-grade spell fragment Xu acquired from Han Su and later restored through the Shennong System. 37 39

• Reached the fourth layer by the summer harvest. 44
• Xu sought the art to strengthen his defenses after Zhang Er's renewed interference. 31 37
• Its defensive role was later surpassed by the Profound Wood Golden-Bodied Art, which gives Xu spirit-wood-like toughness and exceptional recovery. 150 159

Five-Element and Six-Root Cultivation

Xu ultimately transformed from a single Wood Spirit Root cultivator into a cultivator of Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Lightning.

• The Green Lotus Creation Art evolved his Wood Spiritual Root into the Azure Wood Spirit Root, while a Woodfire Spirit Crystal gave rise to his Thunderfire Spiritual Root. 255
• His later cultivation completed the Five-Element cycle, allowing each elemental power to generate and replenish the next. 375
• Xu deliberately assigned a distinct professional path to each root: insect cultivation for Wood, spirit beasts for Fire, formations and body tempering for Earth, sword cultivation and artifact refinement for Metal, and talisman crafting for Water. 375
• Fenglong, his Lightning Spiritual Root incarnation, can separate and later merge back into Xu, restoring his complete six-root strength. 1047 1147
• He can control six kinds of spiritual qi through Spirit Flow: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, and Lightning qi can be adapted for offense, defense, healing, restraint, or support. 1010

Green Lotus, Four Seasons, and Auspicious Grain Arts

Xu's later agricultural methods transform spirit farming into a high-level cultivation path.

• The Green Lotus Creation Art improves his physique and Spiritual Root, while the Companion Green Lotus and Green Lotus Domain accelerate plant growth. 60 150 250
• The max-level Four Seasons Scripture enables him to rapidly germinate seeds, ripen plants, and manipulate seasonal cultivation conditions. 266 446
• The Heaven-Grade Auspicious Grain Record can accelerate germination and maturation, strengthen crops, restore Spirit Field fertility, preserve roots after harvest, repair damaged Spirit Fields and Earth Veins, and potentially create Auspicious Grain containing Shennong Dao essence. 626

• His Creation Heavenly Scripture's Materialization layer can create flawless Spirit Rice seeds from nothing. 1109

Story Role / Major Arcs

Outer Sect Assessment

With one remaining chance to avoid expulsion, Xu refuses Zhang Er's offer to surrender his field and become a tenant farmer. He upgrades the Evergreen Formula, cooperates with Han Su, survives sabotage accusations, and becomes a formal disciple after producing exactly one thousand jin of spirit rice. 1 2 3 6

Establishing the Secluded Spirit Field

Xu claims a remote second-grade field, chooses the Wood-Spirit Entanglement Art, and begins building a self-sufficient farming operation. He obtains fertilizer from Hu Bugui, hires specialists for pest removal and rainfall, and develops spirit rice wine as an additional source of resources. 9 10 11 12 13 14 19

Market and Patronage

After witnessing the control exercised by the Farmer's Heart Society, Xu joins the organization rather than directly oppose it. He later agrees to supply Li Lingbi's team with second-grade spirit rice, gaining access to influential cultivators while privately questioning why Li Lingbi's group values him so highly. 18 27 35 37

Mutated Spirit Rice and Black Soil

Xu discovers hidden Black Soil beneath Stone Mountain and begins cultivating it in secret. Following a thunderstorm, one of his spirit rice plants mutates; he protects the plant, harvests its 999 grains, and replants the parent rice rather than consuming its valuable produce. 32 39 41 49

Earth Vein Mission

Xu accepts Hu Man's mission to tend an Earth-Spouting Lotus, descends to the eighteenth level of the Earth Vein despite the crushing pressure on non-Earth Spirit Root cultivators, and successfully transforms the lotus. The completed mission earns him major compensation and points. 45 46 47 50

Dragonfish Opportunity

After learning that Dragonfish may be drawn by Spirit Rice Wine, Xu considers using his mutated wine to fish at Black Dragon Pool. Hu Bugui instead pursues the opportunity with Foundation Establishment cultivator Zhao Ziyue, hoping to catch a Dragonfish and gain a Golden Core master. 43 50

Foundation Establishment and Multiple Roots

Xu breaks through to Foundation Establishment during the Spiritual Qi Tide, then acquires the Green Lotus Creation Art and begins developing additional Spiritual Roots. He establishes the Green Lotus Domain, expands his secret agriculture, and learns that his long lifespan makes a multi-root, multi-profession path viable. 57 60 255 375

Spirit Cultivator Envoy and Grain Lord

Xu's reputation for Supreme-Grade crops elevates him from an obscure farmer to Spirit Cultivator Envoy and ultimately Grain Lord. He reorganizes spirit-field administration, promotes Li Sancai and Zhang Su according to ability, and develops coordinated systems linking the Spirit Fields, Earth Vein, and Water-Control Pavilion. 252 624 689 715

Earth-Grade Golden Core and Azurewood Peak

Xu forms an Earth-Grade Golden Core, becomes Mu Ji's core disciple at Azurewood Peak, and gains access to Earth-Grade techniques and powerful allies. He continues refusing fame-driven competition, preferring the security of Red Maple Valley and steady agricultural cultivation. 443 583 624

Azurewood Sect and Eastern Domain Crisis

After the collapse of Dongting Immortal Sect's old order, Xu unifies the seven Immortal Peaks under Azurewood Sect. His rise culminates in Spirit Transformation, the defeat of powerful opponents, and the assumption of sect-master responsibility amid the Demon Race's invasion and the Eastern Domain's devastation. 999 1021 1043

Northern Dipper Star Region

Xu enters the Northern Dipper Star Region as the Great Dao Venerable's personal disciple and joins the Spirit Plant Bureau. Rather than relying on honorary status, he requests Grade-Five Spirit Fields, proves his agricultural ability through Creation Heavenly Scripture Materialization, and establishes a foundation for his family in the larger realm. 1107 1109 1139

Origin Dao and Family Legacy

Xu develops a Divine Kingdom, receives the Lord of Creation's complete inheritance, advances through Void Refinement and Body Integration, and cultivates the Origin Dao Heavenly Scripture.
