Ganwu Country Lord

Power Progression

Background / History

Repeated Deaths and Debt

An ancient existence even among Universe Country Lords, Ganwu repeatedly sought life-and-death trials in pursuit of the Universe Master realm. He died and was resurrected several times; his last death on a Primal Star cost him every Supreme Treasure he possessed 65 99.

Burdened with debts to humanity and individual friends, he stopped adventuring and concentrated on cultivating geniuses to earn contributions toward repayment. He established the Ganwu Dojo and prohibited other factions from recruiting students as part of this effort 39 44.

His Ganwu Secret Realm offered free Undying lectures, training facilities, discounted secret techniques, and resources distributed according to talent and improvement. He also prohibited private killings of its geniuses within the core area, even by Undyings 42.

Sponsoring Chen Yi and Luo Feng

Tong Man’s reports brought Chen Yi and Luo Feng to his attention. Their rapid progress—particularly Chen Yi crossing the Law of Metal threshold—prompted Ganwu to summon them in the Virtual Universe. He appointed Tong Man as their personal instructor and authorized special training, with investment increasing according to their performance 43 44.

His initial requirement was a place among the universe-wide Genius Battle’s top thousand, with greater rewards for reaching the top hundred. Although he laughed at Luo Feng’s ambition to enter the Primal Secret Region immediately, he encouraged both youths to continue striving 44.

After learning that Chen Yi had also crossed the Law of Light threshold, Ganwu accepted him as a nominal disciple while promising personal-disciple treatment. Formal personal discipleship required entering the Primal Secret Region as soon as possible and placing greater emphasis on the higher laws, especially space 49.

Ganwu deliberately allowed news of the discipleship to spread as a deterrent against anyone targeting Chen Yi 51.

Genius Battle and Chaos City

By the Genius Battle preliminaries, Ganwu had raised his expectations: Luo Feng was to reach the universe’s top hundred, while Chen Yi was to reach the top ten and contend for first place. When Bolan emerged as the apparent favorite, Ganwu sent Chen Yi information to prevent a possible defeat from damaging his confidence 53 56.

Chen Yi’s assurance restored his confidence. Ganwu subsequently wagered one hundred True Treasure Points with Nine Swords Venerable that Bolan would not finish first. Chen Yi’s clearance of the Trial Tower left him openly delighted and drew envy from other Venerables 59 60.

Afterward, Ganwu arranged protected accommodation for Chen Yi and Luo Feng’s families in the Ganwu Secret Realm. He personally escorted Chen Yi, Luo Feng, and Rong Jun to Chaos City rather than relying solely on the Virtual Universe Company’s transport arrangements 63.

He continued supporting Chen Yi there, identifying the significance of the inscriptions in his residence and purchasing the first three volumes of Purple Spirit. He promised the remaining volumes as needed; the complete technique cost one hundred billion points 65.

At Chen Yi’s request, Ganwu also dispatched Marquis Immortals to kill Panxi and recover his Locke Divine Water, then transferred seven billion Hunyuan Units to Chen Yi 70.

Debt Repayment and Breakthrough

Chen Yi’s rise transformed Ganwu’s circumstances. The Chaos City Lord personally cleared Ganwu’s debt to humanity in recognition of the geniuses his country had produced, while his private creditors stopped pressing for repayment. Chen Yi later used Craftsman God’s resources to settle the remaining 1.6 Supreme Treasure Points and equip his teacher with a complete Supreme Treasure set 93.

Ganwu initially hesitated to accept the Divine Retrospection Pill because of its value. He agreed only after Chen Yi repeatedly reassured him that he had pills available for himself and did not require them to reach Universe Master 99.

After breaking through, Ganwu chose to remain within humanity’s territory, improve his strength, and follow Chen Yi’s lead rather than resume reckless adventures. At his welcoming meeting, he offered his customary Top-tier Supreme Treasure reward to Chen Yi; Chen Yi declined and asked humanity to retain it 100 101.

Appearance

• Build: A towering, imposing figure, described as a giant standing in the starry sky 49.
• Face: Usually indistinct or concealed by distorted space; when revealed to Chen Yi, it carries the majesty of a ruler 44 49.
• Presence: Often surrounded by warped space. His Divine Power Clone likewise appears imposing, with an obscured face 49 53.
• After his breakthrough: His formerly gloomy bearing becomes noticeably high-spirited 100.

Personality

Ganwu favors prudence and steady cultivation. Nine Swords Venerable remembers him as formerly adventurous, but his later preference is for cautious disciples such as Chen Yi. He declines to take Luo Feng as a disciple partly because he considers Luo Feng’s bloodthirsty, risk-taking temperament unsuitable for his own preferences 58 64.

He is generous toward promising students without treating their secrets as his property. Although puzzled by Chen Yi and Luo Feng’s sudden improvement in space, he does not pry. He also permits Chen Yi to share the Ganwu Seal, making clear that ownership includes responsibility for the consequences 49 55.

His caution remains even after his financial recovery. When offered access to Craftsman God’s treasury, he rejects excessively valuable treasures that he cannot fully use or that might attract disaster. His reluctance to accept the Divine Retrospection Pill likewise reflects concern about taking too much from his disciple 93 99.
