Ninefangs

Ninefangs is the youngest in cultivation of the seven Empyrean Gods inherited by the Starseizing Manor's new Manorlord, Ji Ning. Formerly a Void-level Fiendgod soldier under Daoist Threelives, he becomes Ning's traveling attendant and a practical organizer for the Starseizer world's armies.

Biography

Return of the Starseizing Manor

Ninefangs spends countless years hidden with Redsnow and the other surviving servants of Daoist Threelives. When the Grand Xia Realmwar reaches its crisis, the seven debate whether to spend the single intervention they have promised Ning. Ninefangs reminds him that their commitment is limited to one use, not to discourage him but to ensure the new Manorlord understands the cost before calling the ancient force back into the Three Realms. (Chapters 544–545)

After Ning becomes the acknowledged Manorlord, Ninefangs kneels with the others and transfers his service to him. He is the only one among more than one hundred thousand Void-level Fiendgods in the Starseizer world known to have broken through during the long isolation, but he is still the last and weakest-founded of the seven Empyrean Gods. This position makes him eager to work and conscious of how much he has yet to learn. (Chapters 568–571)

Ning distributes treasures left from earlier conflicts, and Ninefangs hesitantly chooses the Grand Bloodshadow Formation of the Heavens. It is one of Ning's best top-grade Pure Yang treasures and is especially compatible with Ninefangs's bat body. Receiving it strengthens his loyalty, because Ning could have kept the treasure despite attributing the distribution to Threelives's wishes. When Redsnow proposes that one subordinate accompany Ning, Ninefangs volunteers to handle the minor duties a Manorlord should not need to perform personally. (Chapters 573–574)

Attendant across the Three Realms

Ninefangs follows Ning through Daofather Fuju's twenty-seven worlds while Ning studies sword remnants. He stands guard during meditation, watches for local threats, and acts when authority must be exercised. After a prince interferes with Ning, Ninefangs stretches an arm across an immense distance and captures the responsible Celestial Immortal master by the collar. He releases the captive immediately when Ning orders restraint. (Chapters 574–578)

The journey also exposes his limitations. The aura of the Five Treasure Peaks makes him pale and nauseated, and Ning tells him that his Dao-heart needs work. Ninefangs had been only a Void-level soldier during the Primordial Era, did not share the other six Empyrean Gods' long wars beside Threelives, and lacks a great teacher. Rather than hiding the weakness, he accepts the criticism and continues serving while Ning develops his own sword arts. (Chapters 577–601)

His attendance is practical as well as ceremonial. He senses Ning's breakthrough into the Grand Dao of the Waterdrop while drinking nearby, conceals a day-long duel from surrounding mortals, puts hostile bystanders to sleep with a word, warns Ning about the Seamless Gate, and waits outside meetings where his presence is not required. His willingness to move between menial protection and Empyrean-level intervention makes him useful precisely because he does not insist on a grander role. (Chapters 575–610)

Mobilizing for war

Ning repeatedly sends Ninefangs into the Starseizer world when secret preparations are needed. Ninefangs helps ready the population before the Starseizing Manor publicly reveals its army, and later responds immediately when Ning orders full mobilization. With Redsnow still in seclusion, routine organizational burdens fall especially heavily on him because he is diligent and available. (Chapters 580–582 and 669)

Ninefangs ultimately appears among Ning's subordinates in the armies assembled for the Endwar. He is alive at that last confirmed appearance. The supplied corpus does not record his death, promotion to True God, or later activity beyond Chapter 734. (Chapter 734)

Appearance and personality

Ninefangs usually appears as a bald old man, even though he is the last of the seven to reach the Empyrean God level. His true form is a bat more than ten thousand kilometers long. (Chapters 574 and 576–577)

He is respectful, industrious, and quick to defend Ning's dignity. He can nap and enjoy dangerously venomous wine while standing guard, yet his senses remain alert to changes in Ning's cultivation or the arrival of powerful threats. His fury toward people who insult the Manorlord is real, but he accepts Ning's instruction to be courteous and does not turn that anger into unauthorized killing. (Chapters 575–577)

Abilities and cultivation

Ninefangs is an Empyrean God whose true body is a bat. His cultivation gives him immense scale, divine senses, and physical reach, but the text explicitly places his foundation below those of the other six ancient Empyrean Gods. (Chapters 568–577)

Bat Fiendgod body

In true form Ninefangs is more than ten thousand kilometers long. Even while appearing human, he can extend an arm as far as one hundred thousand kilometers, seize a distant Celestial Immortal, and retract the limb without needing to cross the intervening terrain conventionally. This reach is an application of his enormous Fiendgod body rather than a separate teleportation technique. (Chapter 576)

His Empyrean God senses remain active even during sleep, allowing him to monitor the surrounding region for Celestial Immortals and other meaningful threats. He ignores weak Primal Daoists until Ning's release of power wakes him, showing a limitation of attention rather than perception: his watch is calibrated to dangers appropriate to the people he guards. (Chapter 576)

Grand Bloodshadow Formation of the Heavens

Ninefangs receives this top-grade Pure Yang treasure from Ning after the Godking's spoils are distributed. Redsnow identifies it as especially well suited to Ninefangs's bat nature. The source calls it an extremely powerful formation treasure but does not show Ninefangs activating it in a detailed battle, so its exact area, targets, cost, and bloodshadow mechanics remain unestablished in the supplied chapters. (Chapter 573)

The gift improves his equipment rather than repairing every weakness in his foundation. Ninefangs remains behind comrades who fought through the Primordial Era and had better instruction, and his reaction to the Five Treasure Peaks shows that a strong treasure cannot substitute for Dao-heart tempering. (Chapters 573 and 577)

Concealment and mental suppression

Ninefangs uses a technique to isolate the area around Ning's duel with Bu Feng, preventing ordinary villagers from seeing a battle that lasts a day and night. In another encounter he glances at a group of disciples and says “Sleep,” causing them to collapse without a physical attack. These are precise support techniques suitable for protecting secrecy and avoiding unnecessary casualties; the corpus does not name them or establish their effectiveness against peers at the Empyrean God level. (Chapter 601)

Command and logistics

Ninefangs can organize the Starseizer world's enormous reserve of Celestial Immortals, Loose Immortals, and Void-level Fiendgods. When Ning orders mobilization, he summons the army and handles arrangements while stronger comrades remain focused on cultivation or battlefield command. This competence is administrative and military rather than proof that he personally controls the entire host as a single formation. (Chapters 580–582 and 669)

Relationships

  • Ji Ning: Ninefangs accepts Ning as Manorlord, receives a compatible Pure Yang treasure from him, serves as his attendant, protects his journeys, and carries out mobilization orders. (Chapters 545–734)
  • Empyrean God Redsnow: Redsnow is the senior of the seven, encourages Ninefangs to accept a suitable treasure, and selects him as the practical attendant for Ning. (Chapters 573–574)
  • Daoist Threelives: Ninefangs begins as a minor Void-level soldier under Threelives and can hear his teachings without being qualified to inherit the greatest techniques. He later transfers that old loyalty to Threelives's successor. (Chapters 568–574)
  • Snow Scorpion and the other Empyrean Gods: Ninefangs is one of their seven-member Starseizing group but has the weakest foundation and the least Primordial Era battle experience. (Chapters 568–577)

Items

  • Grand Bloodshadow Formation of the Heavens: A top-grade Pure Yang formation treasure selected from Ning's spoils because it suits Ninefangs's bat true form. (Chapter 573)
