Background / History

Blacksmith Village and Nuoding Academy

Nan Feng retains memories of a previous life spent restoring antiques and reading webnovels. Hearing the names Holy Soul Village and Tang Hao allows him to recognize the world of Douluo Continent. Old Chen finds and raises him, gives him the same name he bore previously, and teaches him smithing in Blacksmith Village 2 19.

After awakening his Bronze Tower, Nan Feng discovers a Primordial World Imprint within his soul. Old Huai teaches him to cultivate inside the pagoda, while its constant Gravity Field strengthens his body beyond what his Soul Power level alone indicates 3 4.

He travels to Nuoding Academy alongside Tang San and enrolls as a work-study student. Rather than accept Yu Xiaogang’s guidance, he chooses an independent cultivation path. His 920-year first ring soon exceeds the limit Yu Xiaogang had warned him not to challenge 6 7 8 11.

Independent Cultivation

Nan Feng rejects both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s invitation and the prospect of following Tang San to Shrek Academy. He instead develops the pagoda through combat, spiritual materials, Soul Rings, and careful foundation consolidation 12 18 25 27 170.

His early travels connect him with Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan. During their journey toward Heaven Dou City, he kills an Iron-Spined Bear despite suffering cracked ribs. Later, his unusually old first three rings draw Liu Erlong’s attention and provide practical evidence against Yu Xiaogang’s stated limits 24 30.

At the arena tournament, he defeats a level-thirty-eight opponent while at level thirty-five, then loses to a level-forty-four Vajra Ape Soul Ancestor. The semifinal exposes the limits of his suppression and devouring against denser Soul Power and layered physical defenses 48 49.

Slaughter City and the Northern Hunts

Nan Feng enters Slaughter City seeking a Tower Spirit Fragment and adopts the code name “Tower Master,” already associated with a missing tower-wielding fighter. He cooperates with Hu Liena to investigate the third underground level and learns divine abilities from ancient carvings along Hell Road 57 59 65 66.

After returning, Tang Yuehua helps him restrain the killing intent of his Divine Slaughter’s Domain. His subsequent cultivation centers on the Soul-Suppressing Azure Lotus, Immortal Herbs, and increasingly powerful Soul Beast hunts 68 74 76 77.

Spirit Hall’s pursuit pushes him into an alliance with Xue Beng. In exchange for assistance against hidden operatives, he receives the title of Heaven Dou Immortal Master and access to the imperial treasury. Its Chaos Stone strengthens his spatial abilities before his hunts for the Frost Giant Dragon, Golden-Eyed Peng King, and Nine Netherworlds Dark Python 79 82 83 90 97.

Jialing Pass and the Immortal Dao Alliance

At Jialing Pass, Nan Feng fights Spirit Hall, raids its supply station with Zhu Zhuqing, and learns that defending the city is his Ninth Pagoda Trial. He commits to resisting Bibi Dong’s ascension even without a ninth ring 102 112.

During the war, his pagoda shatters and reforms, and his cultivation breaks beyond the Douluo Plane’s restrictions. After defeating Bibi Dong, he preserves her remnant soul rather than allowing it to disappear, intending to purify and resurrect her 115 116 119.

Nan Feng later formalizes Heaven Dou’s support for the Immortal Dao Alliance, supplies introductory cultivation methods for academy trials, and accepts the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s submission. He also organizes the mapping of Abyssal Rifts and helps move against Ning Yuan after discovering stolen instructions for opening one 142 156 160.

His work in the Far North culminates in sealing an Abyssal Outer Domain gate crack and its surrounding branches. He estimates that the seal can endure for centuries unless attacked from within and agrees to reinforce it every five to ten years 150.

Appearance

Hair: Becomes half white after he expends substantial vital essence fighting the Frost Giant Dragon; later journeys leave him with still more white hair 86 152 162.
Left wrist: Habitually wears Xiao Wu’s braided red hair ribbon. Later, an immortal-vine ribbon is tied beside the worn original 21 158.
Right arm: Bears ice-blue dragon-scale markings running from shoulder to wrist, with occasional dark-gold Primordial World light 84.
Dragon wings: Fold along his spine and can be concealed beneath his robe; fully extended, they span three zhang 77 79.
Eyes: Golden patterns appear in his pupils when he activates Peng Eyes 90.

Personality

Nan Feng is quiet, patient, and resistant to prescribed paths. His experience restoring antiques helps him repeatedly correct mistakes in cultivation, while his refusal to follow Yu Xiaogang or enter Shrek reflects a deliberate choice rather than a lack of opportunity. He accepts slower progress when needed to stabilize his foundation 4 5 18 27.

He often expresses affection through practical care rather than declarations: bringing Old Chen peach blossoms, safeguarding Xiao Wu’s identity, and giving her protective equipment. His reserve can make him slow to recognize emotional tensions, as shown when Ye Lingling has to explain Xiao Wu’s jealousy 5 11 17 86.

His determination also leads him to endure severe injuries and shoulder danger alone, drawing repeated criticism from Xiao Wu and Ye Lingling. Nevertheless, he is willing to rehabilitate former enemies: he saves Bibi Dong’s soul and later accepts Yue Guan under an explicit prohibition against indiscriminate killing 49 78 86 119 167.

Primordial World Cultivation

Nan Feng cultivates through the Primordial World Qi Refining Art and the imprint embedded in his soul, pursuing a Dao he describes as higher than becoming a god 3 4 86.

Limit: Rapid gains can destabilize his foundation, requiring prolonged consolidation 27 77.
