At present, because of an anime, Yuan Tiangang in history has become popular out of the circle, and he is affectionately called "Gangzi" by anime fans. In ancient China, Yuan Tiangang was a Taoist priest known for his magical prophetic powers. Born in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties, he was a famous Taoist priest, xiangshi, astronomer and prophet in history.

One of Yuan Tiangang's best-known prophecies was about Wu Zetian. Back then, Wu Zetian was still a young girl, and her parents brought her to ask Yuan Tiangang for advice. Yuan Tiangang saw at a glance that Wu Zetian had the appearance of the Son of Heaven, but he was worried about revealing the heavenly secrets, so he only said: "The dragon pupil and phoenix neck are unspeakably expensive." Sure enough, Wu Zetian later became the only female emperor in Chinese history, and this prophecy has also become a good story for the ages.
In addition to Wu Zetian's prophecy, Yuan Tiangang also had many other magical prophecies.

These prophecies were fulfilled in later history, making Yuan Tiangang respected as a "god operator" by later generations.
However, Yuan Tiangang is not just a mysterious prophet. He was also an astronomer and Taoist preeminent. He is proficient in the five elements of yin and yang, feng shui and other knowledge, and has divined feng shui and planned buildings for many princes, nobles and ministers. His learning and wisdom made him a highly respected figure in society at the time.

Legend has it that he once exchanged Dao techniques with an immortal and obtained a pair of "Heavenly Eyes" that could see through the future.
