Biodata

Feature Details
Name Great Void
Original Name 太虚
Type Spatial expanse distinct from the mortal world, with a traversable boundary between them 68 170.
Environment Hazy gray emptiness, naturally without light or any sense of up, down, or direction 7 291.
Access Purple Mansion Dharma bodies can withstand travel within it; Foundation Establishment cultivators require protection even if they possess a means of entry 132.
Uses Travel, observation of the mortal world, gatherings, and battles between powerful cultivators 24 53 266 291.
First Appearance The Qixia Mountain god enters it to meet a Confucian master 7.

Environment

  • Gray and lightless: During the mountain god’s meeting with the Confucian master, only the radiance of the two figures illuminates their surroundings 7.
  • Vast and normally fluid: The Great Void is described as boundless. Xue Min recognizes an abnormal restriction when his surroundings become sluggish and lose their usual fluidity 174.
  • Filled with spiritual essence: Spiritual vitality flows through it like wind, and cultivators can draw upon its spiritual essence when using their abilities 227 235.
  • Altered by supernatural power: Divine Abilities can illuminate, stain, distort, solidify, or fracture portions of the gray expanse 171 233 276 292.
  • Unequal accessibility: Some places deep within it remain beyond Su Yao’s reach even during his later travels 292.

Access and Travel

Cultivation Requirements

Independent travel through the Great Void is one of the capabilities associated with attaining the Purple Mansion 132.

  • Dharma body: During the breakthrough, the cultivator’s Dao body becomes a Dharma body capable of enduring Divine Ability Law Power and travel through the Great Void 132.
  • Entry is not enough: Su Yao’s Sword Intent could let him enter while he was still at Foundation Establishment, but his body could not withstand the experience without a Purple Mansion cultivator’s Law Power protecting him 132.
  • Accompanied entry: A powerful companion can bring another person inside; one figure takes Su Yao into the Great Void with a hand on his shoulder 56.
  • No automatic safety: Su Yao warns the injured Ni Polu and Li Chaoxue that it is a dangerous place to recover from wounds 139.

Movement and Distance

Property Description
Travel speed A True Person can travel through it at more than ten times the speed possible in the present world in the early account; a later duel describes movement as several times faster than in the mortal world 24 291.
Distance correspondence Traveling ten thousand li within the Great Void covers only one thousand li in the present world 183.
Law Power circulation Law Power flows more smoothly there than in the mortal world 291.
Long-distance routes Su Yao and Yang Xiu travel north through it from Golden Ao Mountain toward Longchuan 205.
Route disruption Powerful battles can forcibly cut off regional passages. One envoy must avoid Jiangnan, Guanzhong, and the Central Plains, detouring through the Western Regions and Tubo to reach Nanzhao 212.

Relationship with the Mortal World

Observation and Concealment

  • Watching from outside ordinary sight: Purple Mansion cultivators use the Great Void to monitor events in the mortal world. A watcher observes Su Yao until the appearance of his wooden box blocks that observation 53.
  • Hidden gatherings: More than ten observers conceal themselves around Golden Ao Mountain while Muya probes its defenses 221.
  • Concealment is not infallible: Su Yao’s Prism detects two concealed divine core perfected ones a thousand li ahead whom he would otherwise struggle to notice 292.
  • Existence and traces are distinct: The Great Yin Feather Robe conceals Su Yao’s existence, but Cang Lan’s Ten Thousand People Sieve exposes the traces he has left in the human world. Su Yao then uses the robe’s Spring and Autumn mysteries to hide those traces within history 179.

Formations and Boundaries

Boundary or defense Effect
Purple Mansion-level formations Can separate an immortal mountain from the Great Void, though this alone does not reproduce Golden Ao Mountain’s exceptional concealment 57.
Su Yao’s wooden box Cuts off observation from the Great Void when brought out, preventing a Purple Mansion watcher from seeing into the mortal world 53.
Soul-Losing Radiant Fire Formation Shields Golden Ao Mountain. Muya probes its curtain from the Great Void, alerting Zilin 221.
Water Palace Secret Realm Opens behind a black-and-yellow curtain of light that divides the secret realm and the Great Void into two worlds 242 243.
Longchuan Heaven Chen Hai attempts to cross from its largest surviving fragment into the Great Void 206.

Effects Across the Boundary

  • Combat movement: Su Yao repeatedly shifts between the Great Void and the mortal world with Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer to evade attacks and reposition behind Zhao Shouyi 275.
  • Visible phenomena: Battles within it can dye the mortal sky with supernatural colors; the destruction of Chen Hai’s demon kings illuminates half the sky 260.
  • Transmitted disturbances: Tremors during Miaoyuan’s attempt to advance spread into the mortal world, causing Mount Jing’s vegetation to wither and flourish repeatedly 267.
  • Radiance through rifts: Greater Yin moonlight pours from a rift and colors the present-world sky silver-white for hundreds of li 292.

Spiritual Conditions and Hazards

Battlefield Use

Cultivators move battles into the Great Void for room to fight without damaging the mortal world. Lu Chuan explicitly proposes it because the mortal world is too cramped 291.

  • Its smoother Law Power circulation supports sustained exchanges of Divine Abilities and Spirit Treasures 291.
  • It does not prevent confinement: moonlight bands, suppressive domains, and other techniques can seal the space around an opponent 276 279 291.
  • Powerful clashes can make entire regions unsafe for weaker travelers 212.

Documented Alterations

Power or technique Effect on the Great Void
Miasma-Filling Haze Mo Chen’s miasma stains ten thousand li dark green; the ability clouds the mind and disrupts the Dao heart 171.
Great Yang treasure Cang Lan’s red-gold wheel illuminates ten thousand li as brightly as day 179.
Color Pierces the Thoroughfare Su Yao’s rainbow light illuminates and orders chaotic spiritual essence across hundreds of miles 233.
Recounting the Sight of the Sun An invisible gentle fire progressively severs Yang Xiu’s connection to surrounding spiritual essence 235.
Gen Doubled Mountains Liu Chan solidifies dozens of miles into a mountain domain that suppresses escape techniques and passage through space 276.
Reverse the Heavenly Order Reverses the paths of spiritual essence, making an opponent’s spellcasting work against the surrounding flow 276.
Cang Metal divine radiance Compresses a deep region until fine cracks spread through the gray void 292.

Fruition Positions

  • During Mo Chen’s attempt to attain gold, the Geng Wood Fruition Position manifests as an ancient gateway deep within the Great Void; its opening makes the surrounding expanse tremble 173.
  • Miaoyuan’s declaration after attaining the Subsidiary Rank of Flourishing Yin Wood pierces the Great Void and spreads throughout the world 266.
