Choumen Tai

Choumen Tai is the ancient cultivator whose enormous corpse lies at the Rebirth Cave and whose preserved will grants Meng Hao an Immortal opportunity.

Biography

Southern Domain and the Black Sieve Sect

The corpse displays independent will inside the Rebirth Cave, threatening to abandon rebirth and slaughter the Black Sieve spirits if they interfere with Meng Hao. Later it roars at attacking Black Sieve Sect puppets and destroys many of them, though they leave a bloody mark on its neck. (Chapters 204 and 241)

This intervention shows that death has not erased Choumen Tai's priorities. Rebirth remains his goal, but he is willing to jeopardize it to preserve Meng Hao, making their later exchange an intentional selection rather than a passive discovery of treasure inside a corpse. (Chapters 204 and 241)

When the Southern Domain cultivators approach, Choumen Tai's enormous hand strikes the earth and draws them into the illusory realm preserved within his body. In an ancient vision among the stars, he appears as a middle-aged man, introduces himself as a native of Planet Tiger Cage, shares half a White Dragon, and entrusts Meng Hao with boons and hope for a future task before disappearing. (Chapters 298–302)

The mental realm preserves history, identity, and an Immortal opportunity, but it also traps rival Chosen in a collapsing ancient scene. Choumen Tai's trust is directed toward Meng Hao; other entrants gain danger and partial opportunity without inheriting the same unfinished responsibility. (Chapters 298–309)

Later cultivation journey

Choumen Tai's enormous corpse carries the dying Meng Hao into the Rebirth Cave. After the Soul Birth Pill and Bridge of Life restore Meng Hao, Shui Dongliu expels the corpse from the cave. (Chapters 689 and 692)

Later cultivation journey

Choumen Tai appears among the ancient powers observing and contributing to Meng Hao's unprecedented Paragon Immortal Ascension, remaining connected to the mysteries of the Rebirth Cave and Immortal Ancient era. (Chapters 972 and 978–980)

Meng Clan and the Mountain and Sea War

Choumen Tai bargains for the completion of his resurrection formation and promises aid against a 7-Essences Paragon. Once restored, he participates in the war against the invading Heavens, including the battles in which Meng Hao enslaves a Paragon and Mythdragon falls. (Chapters 1324–1325, 1342, 1348–1349, 1369–1370 and 1372)

Resurrection changes him from preserved corpse-will into an active war ally. The formation and Meng Hao's assistance are prerequisites, and the promised opposition to a Seven-Essences Paragon is repayment for completion rather than evidence that the corpse could always deploy its full living cultivation. (Chapters 1324–1372)

Appearance and personality

His remains are a gigantic corpse fallen from the sky; within the preserved vision he appears as a middle-aged man. He is forceful toward enemies but solemn and generous toward Meng Hao, whom he treats as a possible bearer of unfinished hopes.

He is patient across ages, protective once trust is given, and direct in bargaining. The willingness to threaten Black Sieve spirits before rebirth and later repay Meng Hao in war links his generosity to obligation rather than indiscriminate benevolence.

Abilities and cultivation

Deathless will

Choumen Tai retains awareness inside a gigantic dead body and can roar, strike, and destroy Black Sieve puppets. Damage still marks the corpse, so preservation is powerful but not invulnerable. (Chapters 204 and 241)

Corpse-realm

His body contains or preserves a vast ancient mental realm capable of drawing many cultivators inside. It recreates history and opportunity, but destabilization threatens everyone within it. (Chapters 298–309)

Immortal opportunity

He can entrust Meng Hao with boons and half a White Dragon connected to his ancient hopes. These are finite legacy transfers, not endlessly reproducible gifts. (Chapters 298–302)

Resurrection formation

A prepared formation can restore him when completed with outside help. Only after restoration does he return to active Paragon-scale war, separating corpse-will feats from living battle strength. (Chapters 1324–1372)

Preservation and transport

His corpse carries the dying Meng Hao into the Rebirth Cave, contributing to the conditions for the Bridge of Life. The Soul Birth Pill and Shui Dongliu's work remain separate necessary elements. (Chapters 689–692)
