She is an immortal woman excavated from a coffin. All of her relatives, friends, and past have been buried in the river of time.

Throughout the entire history of Great Xia (大夏), the Third King’s Ruin – “Immortality” (不死) has only appeared once. It is believed to be the first forbidden ground to appear on a human body. The owner lived more than two thousand years ago during the Han Dynasty and was a girl around eighteen years old.

According to the remaining records of the royal family, the owner of this King’s Ruin was sealed in a coffin two thousand years ago and taken to an unknown location, disappearing without a trace. Researchers speculate, based on the characteristic of “Immortality,” that the owner of this King’s Ruin is likely still alive… and knew Huo Qubing (霍去病) thousands of years ago.

Lin Qiye (林七夜) encounters her when he travels back to the Han Dynasty.

In the “City of Extreme Evil” (极恶都市) chapter, she used “Immortality” to block Susanoo (须佐之男) in Takamagahara (高天原), but “Immortality” was injured by the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi (天丛云剑), after which she fell into a long slumber.

In the “Godfall Symphony” (神陨乐章) chapter, Lin Qiye brought back Skadi (斯卡蒂), the future goddess with “Time Acceleration,” from Asgard. He used the law of time acceleration to accelerate the self-healing speed of “Immortality.” Galan has now awakened from her slumber and has been promoted to the divine realm, becoming an “Immortal of Immortality” (不死仙). In the battle to protect the moon, she blocked a Cthulhu deity until Lin Qiye killed it. Later, in the game of chess of the Monk of Destiny (宿命和尚), the “Pill of Eternal Life” (永生丹) and the “Pill of Immortality” (不死丹) need to be fused into the “Pill of Eternity” (永恒丹) to revive the origin of the Heavenly Court. Therefore, she cooperated with the Monk of Destiny to trap Lin Qiye in place with the Cage of Immortality, and then went to the dilapidated Heavenly Court alone. On the way, she met Si Xiaonan (司小南), who possessed the “Pill of Eternal Life.” The two came to the Tushita Heaven (兜率宫) under Si Xiaonan’s guidance, intending to use Samadhi Fire (三昧真火) to refine her physical body and fuse her soul to become the “Pill of Eternity.” Just as her physical body was about to be incinerated, Si Xiaonan used a trick to preserve Galan’s soul.

In reality, Galan was already a half-step Ascended Being as early as the end of the Fifth Universe. Like Lingbao Tianzun (灵宝天尊) and Elaine, she will not disappear with the dream cycle. She wanders in the Gray Mist Layer and eventually reunites with Lin Qiye and the other members of the Seventh Squad in a brand new universe.
