Background / History

The First Ancestor is the leader of the Lu Family and one of its Nine Great Ancestors. In an earlier generation, each of the nine chose a prodigy with a top-tier physique to mentor; he selected Lu Hao, bearer of the Supreme Bone. Lu Hao was later ambushed and killed by the Ming Family, prompting the Lu Family to unite and kill one of the Ming Family's Supremes in retaliation. 76

He possesses Immortal Qi, the force that distinguishes Limit Supremes from ordinary Supremes. His long cultivation has forged an extraordinary physical body, capable of disregarding most attacks below the level of Supreme Arts. 64 135

He has a long and contentious history with the Sky-Piercing Giant Tree. He recalls fighting the tree in their younger days, when the tree would boast about bearing the heavenly abyss and supporting an imperial city. 169

Appearance

The First Ancestor is a burly, primitively dressed man whose bearing contrasts with his status as the Lu Family's oldest authority. 124

• Wears animal hide stained with blood as clothing. 124
• Has a dark, honest-looking face that can appear deceptively simple. 147
• Wields a rusty scythe capable of enlarging to tens of miles and tearing through space. 66

Personality

Savage Lu is blunt, aggressive, and intensely combative. He has little interest in ceremonial fairness: when a Lin Family Supreme demanded a same-realm duel, he openly stated that he had come to cause trouble and kill, then had the Nine Great Ancestors suppress their opponent together. 65

Despite his rough manner, he is calculating when resources or Lu Qingyun's future are involved. He leveraged the Lin Family's attack on Lu Qingyun into compensation, deliberately framing the demand so that the Lin Family would be forced to fund the cultivation of the prodigy they had sought to eliminate. 66

His strongest trait is his protectiveness toward Lu Qingyun and the Lu Family. He repeatedly supplies Lu Qingyun with resources, shields him from hostile forces, and is willing to spend irreplaceable foundations to save him. 64 134 184

Abilities & Skills

Immortal Qi

The First Ancestor possesses Immortal Qi, which places his strength above ordinary Supremes and supports his status as a Limit Supreme. 64

• His Immortal Qi has tempered his body over countless years. 135
• His aura can suppress beings below the Supreme level; Lu Qingyun withstood it without harm. 102
• His Immortal Qi surged when he sought greater power after regretting his inability to aid Lu Qingyun during the Immortal Seedling War. 169

Supreme Physical Body

His physical strength is formidable even among Limit Supremes. 135

• Can ignore ordinary Supreme attacks unless they employ Supreme Arts. 135
• Matched Lu Qingyun in a physical-only clash, though the exchange secretly injured him badly enough to make him cough blood afterward. 135
• After his three-step ascension, he crushed a Supreme into blood mist with one hand and dispersed a celestial phenomenon with a glance. 188

Scythe Techniques

He uses a rusty scythe as his primary weapon. 65 66

• Can expand the scythe to a massive size and use it to split space. 66
• Severed a Lin Family Supreme's limbs after the Nine Great Ancestors suppressed him. 65
• Uses its attacks as both direct force and coercion during negotiations. 66

Forbidden Time Art

Using the Desolate Ember Immortal King's finger bone, he invoked a forbidden method to enter the River of Time and attempt to recover Lu Qingyun. 184

• The technique consumed the finger bone's remaining power. 184 185
• He located Lu Qingyun's moment of death but could not retrieve him because of time and karma. 184
• The River of Time's splashing water was stated to be lethal even to True Immortals. 184

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Rusty Scythe — His personal weapon; can become immense and tear through space. 66
• Desolate Ember Immortal King's Finger Bone — An Immortal King remnant he absorbed for immense power; later expended while attempting to save Lu Qingyun through the River of Time. 182 184 185
• Chaos Spirit Liquid — Used to heal Lu Qingyun after the collapse of the Blood Qi Furnace. 64

Relationships

• Lu Qingyun — Descendant and the Lu Family's Thirteenth Sequence. The First Ancestor provides him resources, supports his cultivation, protects him from enemies, and risks the Immortal King finger bone in an attempt to save him. 64 134 184 185
• Sixth Ancestor of the Lu Family — Fellow member of the Nine Great Ancestors. The First Ancestor reprimands him for failing to reveal Lu Qingyun's potential sooner, but relies on him to oversee family affairs and protect the Divine Mountain. 64 124
• First Ancestor of the Ling Family (Ling Dabao) — Longtime rival, ally, and drinking companion. Their interactions are filled with mockery and physical scuffles, yet they repeatedly fight together to protect Lu Qingyun and oppose common threats. 136 169 204 277
• Sky-Piercing Giant Tree — Ancient adversary and Lin Family ancestor. The two have a history dating back tens of thousands of years; the First Ancestor pressures it for compensation and later faces its assault on the Lu Family Divine Mountain. 66 169 186
• Lu Hao — His former chosen disciple, who possessed the Supreme Bone and was killed in a Ming Family ambush. 76
• First Ancestor of the Ming Family — A longstanding enemy who seeks to dominate the Great Wilderness; the First Ancestor eventually chooses to confront him alone. 204

Story Role / Major Arcs

Lin Family Retaliation

After the Lu Family Ancestors are freed from a sealing formation, the First Ancestor recognizes Lu Qingyun's exceptional potential and heals him with Chaos Spirit Liquid. He then initiates an assault on the Lin Family, citing both its actions against Lu Qingyun and the Lu Family's shortage of cultivation resources. 64

He leads the Nine Great Ancestors in suppressing and killing the Lin Family Supreme sent as an apparent sacrifice. Rather than accepting this alone as compensation, he forces the Lin Family to provide resources for Lu Qingyun's cultivation and secures an Immortal Divine Medicine. 65 66

Retrieval of Lu Qingyun's Parents

When Lu Qingyun learns that his parents were transferred from the Lin Family to the Ming Family, the First Ancestor personally carries him across territories and attacks the Ming Family to announce their arrival. The Ming Family ultimately returns Lu Qingyun's unconscious parents without apologizing. 67

Support for Lu Qingyun's Growth

The First Ancestor supplies Lu Qingyun with nine complete Supreme Artifacts and additional fragments for refinement in the Cave of Weapon Spirits. He later tests Lu Qingyun in a physical clash and is stunned to discover that Lu Qingyun's body has reached the level of a powerful Limit Supreme. 134 135

He also brings Lu Qingyun to the Ling Family so that Mend Heaven can treat the Ling Family's First Ancestor, while concealing the identity of the enemy responsible for his own hidden and recent injuries. 136

Chaos Expeditions

He joins Lu Qingyun and the Ling Family's First Ancestor in entering Chaos and planning an invasion of the Ancient Cangming Realm for cultivation resources and secret techniques. 139

During a later operation against seven Near-Immortal Supremes, he and Ling Dabao suppress the enemy front line while Lu Qingyun infiltrates their rear and refines ten Supremes into Blood Essence. 149

Lu Qingyun's Apparent Death and Return

After Lu Qingyun is apparently killed, the First Ancestor absorbs an Immortal King finger bone and gains Immortal King-level power. He then expends that power to enter the River of Time and attempt a resurrection, only to find that time and karma prevent him from pulling Lu Qingyun back. 182 184

Lu Qingyun returns unharmed after traversing the River of Time himself, leaving the First Ancestor shocked and relieved. 185

Ascension and Defense of the Great Wilderness

When Lu Qingyun enters an unstable breakthrough state, the First Ancestor warns the Lu Family to stay away and kills Supremes harboring ill intent toward him. His rage triggers a three-step ascension. 188

He later joins Ling Dabao against the Ming Family's First Ancestor, fighting to buy time for Lu Qingyun's return. 204

At an ancient ruin, Immortal King Great Dao enters his body due to his connection with Immortal King blood, elevating him to the Quasi-Immortal King realm. 277
