Power Progression

Background / History

Previous Life and Rebirth

Tang Wulin returns to childhood with memories of an entire previous lifetime. These include forging, Na’er, the destruction of Shrek, the thousand-day dragon burial, his confession at Sea God’s Fate, arena battles, and the abyssal invasion. His most painful recollections concern ten thousand years sealed in the Far North’s ice and piercing his beloved’s chest with his own hands 34.

He awakens in Aolai City at six years old and immediately rushes to embrace his adoptive parents. Although he knows they are not his birth parents, their years of care make the reunion overwhelming. Gu Yuena and his six fellow Shrek Seven Devils regain their previous-life memories at the same time 34.

Ambush in Aolai City

Qian Gu Fenfeng persuades Yun Ming to investigate a child supposedly possessing the Sea God’s inheritance. The two arrive in Aolai City and seal Tang Wulin’s escape routes, prompting Old Tang’s divine consciousness to intervene from within his spiritual world 35.

Old Tang attacks with the Sea God Trident and Unfixed Storm, gravely injuring both assailants. The intervention exhausts his remaining authorization to act in the mortal world, forcing him to withdraw into Tang Wulin’s spiritual abyss 35.

Flight to Heaven Dou

A year after rebirth, Tang Wulin has grown to 170 centimeters despite being chronologically seven. His cultivation benefits from his previous-life experience, but Gu Yuena remains missing, and Qian Gu Fenfeng’s approaching godhood convinces him that the group must retreat rather than confront the Federation 40.

The Sun Moon Federation and Spirit Pagoda designate all seven companions as plane-level felons on fabricated charges of being remnants of the treasonous Tang Sect. With the continent under military surveillance, Tang Hao secretly opens a passage through the Plane Barrier and removes their tracking marks. Tang Wulin leads his companions through it to the Heaven Dou Continent 40.

While in hiding, Tang Wulin develops an evil Ultimate Secret Technique from his memories and Evil Soul Master cultivation methods. Upon sensing Qian Gu Fenfeng’s divine pressure, he resolves to use it, contemplating sacrifices on Heaven Dou as a necessary price. The provided account does not show him executing the technique 41.

Tang Hao and Ah Yin later sacrifice their life sources and divine souls to sever Heaven Dou from the Douluo Plane and enclose it within a protective barrier. Tang Wulin senses his grandparents’ deaths and falls to his knees in grief 49.

Battle Against Qian Chenyue

Years later, Qian Chenyue crosses to Heaven Dou after ascending to godhood. Her Feathers of Death drain the continent’s life, provoking Tang Wulin and the Shrek Seven Devils to attack. Their resistance fails, and Tang Wulin is grievously wounded when he intercepts an axe strike aimed at Xu Xiaoyan 51 52.

Despite his injuries, he reminds his companions of their promise to live and die together. Their Soul Power resonates and their domains overlap as Soul Masters from across Heaven Dou join them. Qian Chenyue counters with a divine balance that captures their attacks and returns equivalent destructive force against the defenders 53.

Her subsequent Law of Death kills Xie Xie, Yuanen Yehui, Yue Zhengyu, Ye Xinglan, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xu Lizhi. Tang Wulin remains standing, helplessly watching the companions of his previous and present lives die before him 54.

Survival and Loss of His Origin Power

Tang Wulin survives the catastrophe and is rescued from the sea by a merchant ship. His injuries leave him unable to resist the steward, who claims ownership over him and threatens to make him a concubine upon reaching the Douluo Continent. Tang Wulin conceals his hatred and feigns submission to survive, enduring abuse while holding onto the desire to avenge his companions and Heaven Dou 55.

Before the ship reaches its destination, Kailuolun confronts him. Tang Wulin recognizes Heaven Dou’s former genius, but cannot prevent him from forcibly extracting the Golden Dragon King’s remaining origin power. Kailuolun subsequently uses that power in his century-long research into a God-Slaying Soul Tool; Tang Wulin’s fate after the extraction is not shown 56.

Appearance

• Hair: Short and black 40.
• Growth after rebirth: Reaches 170 centimeters approximately one year after awakening at age six; his face already lacks childishness 40.
• Features: Handsome and refined, even while bloodstained and severely injured 55.
• Bloodline manifestation: Golden dragon scales spread across his body when he draws upon his dragon power 53.

Personality

Tang Wulin is deeply attached to his family and companions. His first response to rebirth is to seek out his adoptive parents, and his bond with the Seven Devils centers on shared danger and a promise to live and die together. He acts on that loyalty by shielding Xu Xiaoyan from Qian Chenyue’s attack 34 52 53.

He can prioritize survival over pride. Recognizing the Federation’s overwhelming advantage, he urges his companions to lie low rather than fight prematurely. After losing his combat strength, he similarly conceals his anger toward the ship’s steward because resistance would leave him defenseless 40 55.

His determination to defeat Qian Gu Fenfeng also exposes a willingness to compromise his stated ideals. Although he invokes justice, he decides to employ an evil technique and considers sacrifices on Heaven Dou acceptable if they serve his goal 41.
