Personality

Tai Tan is hotheaded and intensely protective of Wang Dong'er. Her attachment to Lin Xuanchen makes him feel that he is losing her, and he reacts angrily to their hand-holding and public kisses. Wang Dong'er describes him as quick-tempered rather than genuinely hostile, while Niu Tian reprimands him for remaining impulsive despite his age 37 38 41.

His stern manner changes immediately when addressing Wang Dong'er: during dinner, he switches from glaring at Lin Xuanchen to smiling as he explains the proposed strength test. Her threats to stop speaking to him leave him visibly hurt 37 41 45.

Although prideful and easily provoked, Tai Tan admits defeat after their duel. He also shows genuine curiosity about the technique that allowed Lin Xuanchen's strength to increase so dramatically 44 45.

Abilities & Skills

Titan Giant Ape Physique

Tai Tan retains formidable physical durability even while suppressing his strength 42 43.

• Takes Lin Xuanchen's Eight Extremes Collapse directly to the head without injury; its hidden force cannot penetrate his body 42.
• Catches the enormous Seven Kill Sword produced by Heavenly Sky Swordfall Slash with both hands, then throws it aside unharmed 43.
• His defenses are nevertheless pierced by Lin Xuanchen's Flame-Congealing Finger, which damages the bones of his fist 44.

Spiritual Power

Tai Tan uses spiritual force both to intimidate opponents and to locate people 37 38 43.

• Projects overwhelming spiritual pressure toward Lin Xuanchen during their first confrontation, without visibly affecting him 37.
• Locates and probes Wang Dong'er after learning of her improved cultivation 38.
• Finds Lin Xuanchen at the mountaintop's edge after he moves out of sight 43.

Titan Annihilation Palm

Condenses dark-red soul power into an enormous palm above his opponent and drives it downward with crushing force 42.

• Compresses the surrounding air into explosive booms 42.
• Is countered by Lin Xuanchen's Life Spirit Heaven-Burning Palm; their collision pulverizes nearby rocks 42.
• Wang Dong'er questions whether Tai Tan is honoring the strength restriction, judging the attack nearly comparable to an ordinary Soul Saint's 42.

Gravity Control

Applies crushing gravitational pressure through a distant downward palm gesture 42.

• Makes Lin Xuanchen feel as though an entire mountain is pressing upon him, severely restricting movement 42.

Tai Tan True Body

His seventh soul skill transforms him into a gigantic Titan Giant Ape 44.

Soul Rings	Configuration
First–eighth	Black 44
Ninth	Red 44

• Activates the transformation when he senses that Flame-Congealing Finger could genuinely injure him 44.
• Uses Tai Tan Mountain-Shaking Fist in this form, coating his fist with earthen-yellow rock formed from dense soul power 44.
• The reinforced fist fails to stop Flame-Congealing Finger, allowing Life Spirit Flame to enter the wound 44.

Relationships

• Wang Dong'er — Calls him “Second Dad.” His attempts to protect and assess her boyfriend strain their relationship, particularly after she blames him for Lin Xuanchen's apparent injuries 37 41 45 47.
• Niu Tian — Addresses him as “Big Brother”; Niu Tian calls him “Second Brother.” They jointly assess Lin Xuanchen, but Niu Tian repeatedly restrains and scolds Tai Tan 38 44 47.
• Lin Xuanchen — Wang Dong'er's boyfriend and the target of Tai Tan's strength test. Tai Tan acknowledges his ability and ultimately concedes defeat, but Lin Xuanchen's staged collapse further damages Tai Tan's standing with Wang Dong'er 41 42 44 45.
• Tang San — Knows of Tang San's plan for Wang Dong'er to approach the Goddess of Life's successor and of the seal placed on her. Tai Tan angrily blames that plan for her attachment to Lin Xuanchen 38 40.
• Xiao Wu — Tai Tan and Niu Tian witnessed Tang San's willingness to risk his life protecting her, which informs Tai Tan's trust in Tang San's devotion 42.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Receiving Wang Dong'er's Boyfriend

Tai Tan rushes out of Clear Sky Castle when Wang Dong'er brings Lin Xuanchen home. Seeing their intertwined hands, he demands that Lin Xuanchen release her and applies spiritual pressure. Wang Dong'er shields her boyfriend and leads him inside despite Tai Tan's objections 36 37.

He subsequently complains to Niu Tian about Wang Dong'er's devotion and Lin Xuanchen's interest in the Cold Ice Jade Marrow Bed. Unable to contact Tang San, the two decide to assess the newcomer themselves 38.

After hearing how Lin Xuanchen obtained precious cultivation benefits for Wang Dong'er, Tai Tan can find no fault with his generosity. He and Niu Tian accept the relationship but stop Wang Dong'er from impulsively seeking to start a family, taking reassurance from Tang San's remaining seal 39 40.

Mountain Duel

Angered by Lin Xuanchen kissing Wang Dong'er during dinner, Tai Tan challenges him to withstand a palm strike. Niu Tian proposes that Tai Tan suppress his strength to match Lin Xuanchen, who is level 50 without a fifth soul ring 41.

The snowy mountaintop duel escalates from physical exchanges to palm attacks, gravity control, and a giant sword strike. Tai Tan allows Lin Xuanchen to complete Destruction Fire Body, watching rather than interrupting the unfamiliar transformation 42 43.

Lin Xuanchen then pierces Tai Tan's transformed fist and detonates Life Spirit Flame inside the wound. Niu Tian intervenes with a nine-azure-dragon barrier, preventing an explosion that he says would have destroyed Tai Tan's arm. Although Tai Tan initially wants to continue fighting, he accepts the loss 44.

Fallout and Departure

Lin Xuanchen stages an unconscious collapse and frightening wounds to turn Wang Dong'er against Tai Tan. Tai Tan notices his mocking hand gesture and protests, but Wang Dong'er refuses to listen and declares that she will never speak to him again 45.

Tai Tan retreats to the sect and releases a thunderous bout of foul-smelling flatulence, provoking complaints throughout the castle. Niu Tian clears the air with soul power and confronts him 45.

Eight months later, Wang Dong'er remains distant as she leaves for Shrek Academy with Lin Xuanchen. Tai Tan asks whether she is still angry and worries that her promise not to return unless necessary means she will stop visiting them 47.
