Fighting Style
While fighting, Tang San relies on three main abilities and skills: His Blue Silver Emperor Spirit, Mysterious Heaven Technique and Hidden Weapon Techniques.
Often times when fighting superior foes or in odd situations, Tang San uses the martial arts that he learned in his past life, among which involve his usage of Hidden Weapons and poisons.
Using aforementioned arts is ideal for Tang San because they directly compliment his grass spirit, which is of the control type and is most commonly suited for changing the conditions of a battlefield. Although 'control-type' spirit masters like Tang San are often outmatched by masters of other types, Tang San's usage of the Tang Sect's techniques makes him a strong match against spirit masters at and even above his level.
Abilities

One Thousand And One Nights
One Thousand And One Nights is 4th ranked among Tang Sect's hidden weapons techniques. The techniques allows the deployment of thousand and one hidden weapons within a matter of seconds with extreme precision. When executing this One Thousand And One Nights hidden weapon technique, the user must first use the Mysterious Heaven Technique to jolt his innards and raise his Spirit Power by threefold. Also the Mysterious Heaven Technique has to be above the sixth level in order to use this technique. After using this technique, the user will be weakened for three days before he recovers.
Phoenix Guides Nine Chicks

Purple Demon Eye
The Purple Demon Eye is divided into 4 stages.
- Survey
- Detailed
- Mustard Seed
- Boundless
In the Survey realm he was able to substantially improve vision power, and furthermore clearly grasp detail.
The Detailed realm improved the vision even further and granted a mental state where everything slowed down, allowing him to react in the shortest possible time. He is also able to see Spirit Masters’ amount of spirit power given that the spirit power of spirit masters are lower than his.
The 3rd stage, Mustard Seed enabled Tang San to survey the surroundings, including noticing very minute details such as the wings of a fly, and even the fact that Xiao Wu was a Spirit Beast.
The Mustard Seed realm allows Tang San to shock or confuse an enemy who is in a vulnerable state. It also allows Tang San to breakthrough illusions. This realm also allows for the user to attack the mental state of the opponent.
Upon fusing with his second spirit bone, the Wisdom Skull, his Purple Demon Eye advanced directly to the limits of the mustard seed stage and allowed him to condense his spirit force and create an attack capable of destroying a boulder, which he named God Eye.
While nearing the end of the 3rd Seagod trial, Tan San in a moment of inspiration unlocked the Boundless realm level, breaking the Wisdom Skull Bone, and became able to see everything on Sea God Island. The Boundless realm rather than enhancing eyesight, unlocks the Mind's eye instead, and combined with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud version of the Wisdom Skull bone, becomes able to survey not just a whole island but the surrounding ocean as well.
Mysterious Jade Hand
Mysterious Jade Hand causes the palm of the hand to become extremely tough and tensile. Moreover it can obstruct any poison. This allows Tang San to forge weapons without any damage to his arms.
Controlling Crane Catching Dragon
It is a method of improving his coordination and strength. It is also an extraordinarily potent grappling technique which has diabolical muscle splitting bone displacing techniques. This technique when combined with spirit power can also manipulate objects at a distance, which Tang San uses with his hidden weapons as well as his Clear Sky Hammer.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track
This is a foot and balance technique which allows Tang San to move with extreme speed and traverse difficult terrains as well as dodge attacks fast enough to leave behind after images.
Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation
Swallows Parting Flight
This is a Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation technique which allows the change of trajectory of thrown weapons in mid-air.
Lightness Skill
