Neither a human nor any humanoid creature belonging to Takamahagara, he was a forbidden devil found in the Shadow Oppression Valley by none other than the elders of the Ten Thousand Transformations Sect.
The infant was seen gathered upon by hundreds of devils of the Shadow Oppression Valley, who slowly ate him up, and that was what piqued the curiosity of the elders. Devils eating devils was something that never occurs, and the exception piqued their curiosity so much that they decided to help the devil that was being eaten. But instead, what they found was a humanoid infant with no eyes, ears, lips, hands, or legs. They had all been gorged up by the brutal devils, and strangely, the infant was able to miraculously survive the encirclement.
