Meng Hao's Clone

Fang MuDao Realm clonevessel for the nine-life Ninth Hex

Meng Hao's Clone is the independent body Meng Hao creates from a Nirvana Fruit and the pattern of his bronze lamp to complete the Ninth Hex. It lives first as Fang Mu, becomes Yan'er's master, and then passes through nine mortal lives whose memories form the nine sealing marks.

Biography

Vast Expanse and Transcendence

Although created by Meng Hao and linked to his true self, the clone acts as a distinct person. Its relationships, choices, cultivation, deaths, and reincarnations unfold independently; chapters showing both bodies therefore treat Meng Hao and the clone as separate scene participants. (Chapter 1448)

Vast Expanse and Transcendence

The clone enters the mortal world as an infant found in a river. Raised as Haowie and later known as Fang Mu, he awakens to his origin, joins the Ninth Sect, and rises from mortal to Immortal in ten years. He accepts Yan'er as his disciple and destroys the Eighth Sect forces that abuse her, while Meng Hao's true self separately protects the larger plan. (Chapters 1448–1456)

Fang Mu establishes an unmatched record in the Vast Expanse Shrine, summons the Tenth Heaven, perfects successive forms of the Seal the Heavens Hex, and defeats his Tribulation with the support of the Ninth Sect. He later visits every sect's shrine with Yan'er, taking first place in each as a gift to her. Their bond becomes the emotional center of this life. (Chapters 1457–1481)

On the Transcendence Path, the clone extinguishes all 108 Soul Lamps and forms an Immortal Root, but discovers that one life can complete only one of the Ninth Hex's nine branches. He kills two cultivators plotting against him, severs his memories, passes away in meditation, and sends his soul into reincarnation. (Chapters 1482–1486)

The next lives explore different mortal paths: Fang Hao rules from behind an imperial court; Little Tiger Hu lives and dies for family vengeance; Chen Lei ruins his clan through obsession; Little Mute becomes a master coroner; Xu Liuyun raises and loses a mercantile dynasty; Mutt becomes the assassin Ear-Slicer; and Li Hao builds an enormous lineage. Each completed life illuminates another sealing mark. (Chapters 1487–1493)

The ninth life is Little Treasure, a blind carpenter and sculptor watched over by Yan'er. He unknowingly carves the shape of the Ninth Hex while Allheaven's pressure punishes his household and tries to prevent completion. At last he recognizes Meng Hao as his true self, completes the ninth sealing mark, and returns the accumulated enlightenment. His final farewell to Yan'er closes the independent life of the clone and makes Meng Hao's complete Ninth Hex possible. (Chapters 1518–1525)

Appearance and personality

Fang Mu resembles a young cultivator fashioned from Meng Hao's bloodline and the bronze lamp's pattern. Later bodies differ with each reincarnation: court elder, hunter, ruined young lord, mute coroner, merchant patriarch, scarred assassin, prolific ancestor, and finally blind sculptor. Across those lives he is persistent, contemplative, and repeatedly shaped by attachment, loss, and responsibility.

Abilities and cultivation

Constructed clone body

Meng Hao combines a Nirvana Fruit, his bloodline, and the bronze lamp's pattern into an independent vessel. It inherits combat insight and Hexing foundations but develops distinct relationships and can die separately. (Chapter 1448)

Soul Lamps and Dao Realm

Fang Mu cultivates 108 lamps and extinguishes them under the Transcendence Path's crushing pressure to form an Immortal Root and reach the Dao. Each extinguishing risks bodily destruction, so the path is progressive ordeal rather than instant inheritance. (Chapters 1457–1486)

Seal the Heavens Hex

Early forms are refined through shrine records, the Tenth Heaven, combat, and contemplation. One lifetime can complete only one of nine sealing marks, forcing a change from conventional cultivation to reincarnated experience. (Chapters 1457–1486)

Nine-life reincarnation

The same soul seals prior memories, lives a complete mortal path, dies, and carries its insight into the next mark. Memory sealing prevents one personality from merely acting nine roles, while continuity allows the final Little Treasure life to return all accumulated enlightenment. (Chapters 1487–1525)

Inherited Hexes and divine will

The clone can use Meng Hao's earlier Demon Sealing arts and vast will, but its available cultivation changes with body and life. Mortal reincarnations cannot freely deploy Fang Mu's Dao Realm force without defeating the purpose of the cycle.

Relationships

  • Yan'er: Sole disciple as Fang Mu and wife in the Little Treasure life; their bond becomes the clone's principal independent attachment.
  • Meng Hao: Creator and true self who receives the completed Ninth Hex while allowing the clone's lives to unfold.
  • Ninth Sect Paragon: Sect authority who supports Fang Mu's cultivation and tribulation.

Items

  • No independently notable item within the finalized manifest is directly assigned to this character.
