Background / History

Xiao Ze originates from the Xiao Family and is the son of Patriarch Xiao Zhan. As a member of the main branch, he was eligible to stand among the family’s core members during its coming-of-age ceremony, but chose to remain with Xiao Xun'er instead 22.

In his early years, he concealed much of his strength. This restraint led others to believe he had quietly reached the Dou Zhe realm long before openly displaying his ability, while he focused on cultivation rather than reputation 20 40.

He became a central figure in the Xiao Family’s recovery. After the family relocated, he supported its development with storage rings full of resources, arranged for materials to create the Extreme Yang Pill, and encouraged its public cover identity as the Desert Iron Mercenary Group 145.

His status changed dramatically after entering Jia Nan Academy and later the Central Plains. He rose through the Inner Academy’s Strong Ranking, became an Eighth Grade Alchemist, gained prominence within the Alchemist Tower, and earned continent-wide recognition after the Battle of Ye City 84 216 314.

Xiao Ze later learned that the Xiao Family descended from an Ancient Race. In the Heavenly Tomb, he met ancestor Xiao Xuan and inherited the Xiao Clan’s final Dou Emperor Bloodline, accepting the responsibility of reviving and protecting the clan 507 509.

After becoming a Dou Emperor, he entered the Great Thousand World alone rather than expose his companions to dangers they could not yet face. There, he became a leading figure of the Great Luo Heavenly Domain, established the Origin Realm as a Super Force, and eventually reopened a Planar Passage to the Dou Qi Continent 681 789 790.

Personality

Xiao Ze is calm under pressure. He remains composed during painful breakthroughs, dangerous battles, and political crises, including the Xiao Clan bloodline inheritance and conflicts with Soul Hall 509 531.

He is pragmatic and strategic in combat. Rather than rely only on raw strength, he uses terrain, opposing attributes, illusions, poison, spatial manipulation, and prepared techniques to secure decisive victories 54 84 311.

He is deeply protective of his family and companions. He provides cultivation resources, pills, protection, and guidance, while also respecting their independence and allowing them to pursue their own paths 145 532 801.

Xiao Ze does not pursue power at the expense of those close to him. He refuses Zi Yan’s offer to share her Dragon Phoenix Bloodline because it could harm her potential and conflict with his inherited Xiao Clan bloodline 577.

Abilities & Skills

Tenfold Return and Subordinate Binding

Xiao Ze possesses a binding-based system through which the growth and talents of selected companions can yield powerful feedback rewards.

The Tree of Origin is the foundation of Xiao Ze’s cultivation system and regulates his many otherwise incompatible powers.

• In the Great Thousand World, his body is regarded as rivaling a Super Divine Beast before advancing into a Saint Grade Physical Body 753 766 850.

Lightning Techniques

Xiao Ze refines and controls multiple forms of lightning, including Black Demonic Thunder and Nine Profound Golden Thunder.

• Thunder Body — A High Earth Tier movement technique that creates independent lightning constructs from Dou Qi rather than Soul Power; he can continuously create more while his Dou Qi lasts 361.
• Black Demonic Thunder — Used to destroy Soul Hall forces and temper powerful beings such as the North Dragon King 531 607.

• He seals spatial rifts with the Emperor’s Seal Technique 257.
• He can calm Spatial Storms, repair Spatial Rifts, and suppress enemies by sealing the surrounding space 389 436.
