Lan Si

## Introduction

Lan Si was the Divine Fist of the Ten Arbiters. He was the Arbiter which made his name through Overlay Stacking technique and there are many historic moments mentioned due to his deeds. Lu Yin walks the same path as him of Overlay Stacking so he hears many of such achievements that Lan Si created.

## Personality

Lan Si a cultivator with pride and strength to back up his ambition. He has a well round personality and similar to Lu Yin that cultivates the body to attack with physical-based techniques. He cultivates in the Overlaying Stacks path this was used as a stepping stone to cultivate another battle technique, Vacuum Palm. Lan Si doesn't have as strong of a physical body compared to Lu Yin but he was more specialized in cultivating the Overlaying Stack, which he could bring out One Hundred and Fifty Stacks.

Vacuum Palm is an invisible palm imprint technique that is unleashed at an almost unavoidable, that travels through the void and is very difficult to see. It is stronger than even the Overlaying Stacks technique as that compounds the attacks, while Vacuum Palm arrives silently. It took Lu Yin his combined effort of his three Fatesands, Nine Lines of battle force, as well as a Hundred Stacks just to barely withstand the attack. Since the Vacuum Palm was difficult to detect, it was also difficult for Lu Yin to divert with the Yu Secret Arts as well.

The Vacuum Palm put no strain on Lan Si’s body, which meant that, in theory, as long as his physical strength was sufficient, he could use the technique without limit. However, each time he used the Vacuum Palm, there would be a single moment where his body stiffened. This was because of the momentum transfer that occurred whenever such a tremendous force was unleashed, and it was unavoidable unless Lan Si’s physical strength increased by about fivefold. Otherwise, this momentum transfer would always cause him to pause for a moment.Also, even if the Arbiter’s physical strength increased by fivefold, the strength of his Vacuum Palm would increase at a similar rate, which meant that the momentum transfer’s pause would still exist unless he decreased the strength of the attack by fivefold.

Lan Si has the innate ability of blocking pain for himself. Blocking all perception of pain might seem like a useless innate gift, as it did not help a person in attacking or defending. However, to someone who was adept at physical battles, this innate gift was incredibly powerful. Pain was the human body’s instinctive way of protecting itself, and only through the feedback of pain would one learn the limits of their physical body. Once pain was felt, no matter how firm a person’s resolve might be, their actions would still be hindered.

Being able to block off all perception of pain meant that there would be no restrictions. Even if a person was severely injured, unless their body was completely destroyed, they would still be able to remain clear headed, and their body would move without any delays. Lan Si is able to screen off his body’s pain, which allowed him to use his unclouded intelligence to perfectly control his body. This allowed him to do things that were impossible for normal people.

## Story

Lan Si first appearance was during the gathering of the Starfall Sea cultivators and those within the Grayweed Continent as the Sixth Mainland cultivators advance and surround them. Only the experts of the Grayweed continent cultivators, and Sea King's dome cultivators that were pre-selected by the Sea King managed to escape out of the Innerverse from Madam Hong's pursue into the Outerverse through the crack.

Lan Si with the authority of the Ten Arbiters used the Outerverse Youth Council's power to pressure against Lu Yin. With the clash of politics as the reason, Lan Si wager against Lu Yin, to gain his status as the Honor Chosen by Lu Yin if Lan Si won, and if Lu Yin won, Lan Si and the cultivators that supported him from the Grayweed Continent and the Dojos, will have to unconditionally support him instead.

After the Innerverse and Outerverse were about to reconnect, Lan Si and Lu Yin finally held the fated battle. Lan Si had developed more Stacks of One Hundred and Fifty compared to Lu Yin's One Hundred Stacks, but Lu Yin had a stronger body. Lan Si had been using the Overlaying Stacks Technique to cultivate the battle technique of the Vacuum Palm. With an almost unavoidable attack, Lu Yin had been beaten to the point of almost collapses while Lan Si had been given similar damage. Previously Lan Si had determined that Lu Yin could only withstand only three to four Vacuum Palms at most but through the near death experience Lu Yin had against Nightking Zhenwu at the Cosmic Sea, had allowed Lu Yin to finally reach the level of Ten Arbiters not just when it came to spiritual force, and Lu Yin gaining the nine-lines of battle force. Lan Si's innate ability allows him to overcome his body's limits and put in extra Vacuum palm strikes into Lu Yin. Already passed his limits, Lu Yin took a final gamble with his die, and Lu Yin was able to copy Lan Si's innate gift, allowing the final attack by Lu Yin to be at it's peak strength. With Lan Si unable to move, Lu Yin had finally been able to break the legend of the Ten Arbiters.

Lan Si had participated in the ZENITH tournament but unfortunately couldn't live up to the status of the Arbiter anymore due to his opponent being against Yuhua Mavis. Even after breaking through to the Enlighter realm, although he had eliminated the weakness of his version of the Vacuum Palm, he had not improved as quickly enough.
