Background

Wei Fan is a transmigrator who arrived in a world resembling an ancient society, only to discover that ghosts, Oddities, and Monstrosities are real. His parents, both Night Watchers, died during an Oddity attack, leaving Wei Fan and his younger sister Wei Yingying with an inheritance but forcing them from Wushan Village's inner ring to the dangerous outer ring 2 4.

After Bai You, the White Ghost Soul, begins appearing near their home, Wei Fan trains the Tiger's Breath Art left by his parents. He awakens the God-tier Point Addition System shortly afterward, gaining the ability to spend Energy earned from killing Oddities to instantly improve cultivation arts 2 3.

Appearance

Wei Fan normally maintains an unassuming 1.8-meter frame despite his extraordinary physical power. His cultivation lets him suppress his enlarged physique and intimidating presence when needed 4 13.

• Black hair and an increasingly angular face after awakening Tiger's Breath True Intent 4.
• Well-defined musculature even before his later breakthroughs 2.
• Often wears black martial attire and carries a saber while on Night Watch duty 16.
• In True Intent combat states, his body can expand to roughly 2.4–2.6 meters, with dark blue or heated red skin, tiger markings, and illuminated qi vortex nodes 19 26 40.
• Twelve red qi vortex nodes appear across his body when he activates his full Three Yuan Battle Art burst 26 50.

Personality

Wei Fan is intensely protective of Wei Yingying, and his pursuit of power begins primarily as a way to secure their survival and move them out of the outer ring. He consistently prioritizes her safety, eventually assigning Little Shadow to guard her when the Zhu Family begins targeting him 4 41.

He is cautious, observant, and deliberately conceals his true strength. He avoids attracting attention before gaining sufficient power, studies unfamiliar Monstrosities for weaknesses rather than charging in blindly, and uses deception to hide his involvement in Zhang Zhi's and the alchemist's deaths 4 22 24 32.

Wei Fan is also decisive and ruthless toward threats. He kills hostile Night Watchers, Zhu Family assassins, and soul-refining criminals without hesitation, but remains compassionate toward villagers endangered by the White Ghost Souls and releases the souls trapped in the alchemist's furnace 21 31 40.

Abilities & Skills

God-tier Point Addition System

Wei Fan's system records cultivation methods after he studies them and upgrades them directly with Energy acquired by killing strange Oddities 3.

• Can max out recorded cultivation methods without conventional training.
• Allows Extreme Breakthroughs that exceed a technique's ordinary limits.
• Its initial One-Click Max Level function was available but deliberately preserved rather than spent on Tiger's Breath Art 3.
• Upgrades require Energy; higher-grade breakthroughs can be extremely costly, such as 50 Energy for Three Yuan Battle Art 19.

Tiger's Breath Art

Wei Fan's foundational strength-enhancing art and first True Intent cultivation method 4.

• True Intent State grants immense strength and Tiger's Might intimidation.
• Can crush iron scale weights into malleable metal with his bare hand 4.
• Lets him regulate muscle density and return his enlarged body to an ordinary appearance 13.
• Its aura can intimidate Monstrosities and overwhelm weaker humans, as shown when Zhu Linyi fled in terror 39.

Iron Ridge Art

A body-tempering art obtained from Blacksmith Li that transformed Wei Fan's defense 7.

• Ordinary swords and cleavers fail to cut him after reaching the third level 7.
• At True Intent Extreme, he can withstand a full-force slash from his own Wild Goose Wing Saber without a mark 19.
• Immovable as a Ridge provides extreme durability.
• Counter Shock and Counter Injury retaliate against attackers through defensive force 19.

Three Yuan Battle Art

Wei Fan's primary burst-strength cultivation art, originally provided by Shi Meng upon joining the Night Watch 9.

• Initially formed three qi vortex nodes, enabling a threefold burst 13.
• Extreme Breakthrough expanded the nodes to twelve across his body 26.
• At full activation, his output approaches 100,000 jin of force 26.
• The technique enabled him to kill the peak Divine Strength Realm alchemist with a single palm 31.

Ghost Locking Seal

An evil technique discovered in the alchemist's ancient book 32.

• Can extract souls from dying targets.
• Its Extreme Breakthrough changed the seal's runes from dull gray to deep crimson 36.
• Establishes a telepathic connection with controlled targets.
• Allowed Wei Fan to control the Blood Ghost-level Ghost Sparrow named Little Shadow 36.

Nine Flames Blazing Sun Art

A demanding cultivation art gifted by Liu Yin'er 38 39.

• Uses Blazing Sun Qi to temper the body toward a Blazing Sun Physique.
• Raises Wei Fan's body temperature above one hundred degrees and expels impurities 39.
• Heats weapons held during practice, increasing the destructive power and sharpness of his saber 39.
• Its high Energy cost limits rapid advancement; even the first level cost 10 Energy 39.

Mobility and Ranged Combat

Wei Fan compensates for his originally weaker speed and range through movement and fist arts.

• Chasing Wind Nine Steps — Extreme Breakthrough movement art capable of a near-100-meter straight-line burst in three seconds 42.
• Qi Explosion Fist: Gun Finger — Fires compressed airflow from his fingertips to pierce targets at range 42 48.
• Qi Explosion Fist: Cannon Fist — Releases explosive force with a punch; one strike tore apart thirteen Monstrosities 49.
• Silver Light Saber Art — His main saber discipline; its enhanced strike split a 5,000-jin boulder 14.

Equipment

• Flame Cloud Saber — A superior saber forged by Blacksmith Li from Volcanic Meteorite Iron; replaced Wei Fan's damaged Wild Goose Wing Saber and complements his heated Nine Flames Blazing Sun Art 46.
• Wild Goose Wing Saber — His original Night Watch saber, used throughout his early patrols and battles 11 16.
• Little Flame Talismans — Defensive talismans used against Monstrosities; Wei Fan later gives some to Blacksmith Li for protection 9 46.
• Sharp Blade Talisman — Issued with his vice-captain uniform 28.
• Puppet Demon Spider venom — Collected after the spider poisoned Lu Qingshan; Wei Fan retains it for potential future use 26.
• Simplified map — Received from Liu Yin'er in exchange for permission to use his Hanfu design 38.

Relationships

• Wei Yingying — His younger sister and only remaining family. Wei Fan's cultivation, Night Watch service, and confrontations with the Zhu Family are driven by his determination to protect her 2 4 41.
• Shi Meng — Vice Captain of the East District and a friend of Wei Fan's late parents. He mentors Wei Fan, provides the Three Yuan Battle Art, accepts him into the Night Watch, and promotes him to vice captain 5 9 26.
• Lu Qingshan — Night Watch captain and Blood Rage Realm martial artist. Wei Fan saves him from the Puppet Demon Spider, earning his gratitude and respect 26 28.
• Blacksmith Li — Blacksmith and father of Aman, who disappeared after marrying into the Zhu Family. He teaches Wei Fan the Iron Ridge Art and later gifts him the Flame Cloud Saber; Wei Fan retaliates against Zhu Linyi partly for Li's sake 7 46.
• Liu Yin'er — Mysterious Luoyuan Chamber of Commerce young lady who senses blood qi concentration. She obtains Wei Fan's Hanfu design, gives him a map, and gifts him the Nine Flames Blazing Sun Art 38.
• Little Shadow — A Blood Ghost-level Ghost Sparrow controlled through the Extreme Ghost Locking Seal. It possesses supersonic speed, can consume corpses to evolve, and is assigned to guard Wei Yingying 36 41.
• Zhu Family — Wushan Village's ruling family and Wei Fan's principal human adversaries. Their abuses, control of higher cultivation methods, and repeated attempts on his life place them in direct conflict with him 7 27 40.
• Zhu Chenghuan — The Zhu Family's second young master and a Bone Forging Realm martial artist. He orders Zhu Luo to assassinate Wei Fan and later confronts Wei Fan during the Calamity of Strangeness 40 50.

Trivia

• Wei Fan introduced the name Hanfu to Wushan Village after designing custom outfits for Wei Yingying; the Luoyuan Chamber of Commerce later sought to add the design to its clothing catalog 34 38.
• Although he initially pursued imagined hidden weapons, Blacksmith Li found his designs impractical because Wei Fan lacked knowledge of their internal mechanisms 7.
