Background / History

Sword Douluo is one of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's two principal Titled Douluo guardians. He and Bone Douluo alternate escorting Ning Fengzhi when the sect master travels, ensuring that one of them remains available to defend the sect. 4 152

At Level 98, he stands one rank below the Peerless Douluo realm and is substantially stronger than Level 96 Bone Douluo. 153 His martial soul is the Seven Kill Sword, and his swordsmanship forms the foundation of the self-created Seven Kill Sword Style. 27 192

Personality

Sword Douluo is calm and assured in dangerous situations, whether entering soul-beast territory, confronting Dugu Bo, or accepting Ye Feng's increasingly formidable challenges. 5 108 251

He takes visible pride in his swordsmanship and in Ye Feng's growth. Although he teases, criticizes, and subjects Ye Feng to punishing sparring sessions, his instruction is consistently aimed at helping Ye Feng adapt to new power and survive future battles. 21 27 112 192

His rivalry with Bone Douluo is loud and frequent, but the two act with complete coordination when guarding the sect or protecting Ye Feng. 106 152 153

Abilities & Skills

Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul

Sword Douluo manifests the Seven Kill Sword as a silver-white longsword with a sharp aura. He can enlarge it into a flying platform, raise a protective barrier around its passengers, and use it for rapid aerial travel. 4 238

• Possesses nine spirit rings as a Titled Douluo. 106 192
• Can project dense sword qi capable of striking Ye Feng and destroying his clones. 192
• His sword aura forced Ye Feng to use Ring Fusion during their Rank 81 spar. 251
• His swordsmanship can erase physical evidence; after Shi Nian's death, he used countless small sword blades to remove the surrounding earth and all remaining traces. 175

Seven Kill Avatar

Sword Douluo's Martial Soul Avatar transforms the Seven Kill Sword into a massive blade covered in red patterns that emit overwhelming killing intent. 192

• The avatar's killing intent pressured nearby observers so severely that Flender and Zhao Wuji had to shield Tang San and the others. 192
• He used the avatar after Ye Feng's Golden-winged Great Peng, flame dragon, and thunder crane attacks forced him to take the battle seriously. 192
• He later formed a gigantic Seven Kill Sword to contain Ye Feng's offensive barrage during their Rank 81 spar. 251

Seven Kill Sword Style

The Seven Kill Sword Style is Sword Douluo's self-created combat technique and the culmination of his lifetime of swordsmanship. Even when demonstrated with a wooden sword, its movements carry pronounced killing intent. 27

• He teaches that the style is not limited to a sword: its principles can be adapted into fist, palm, claw, or wing techniques. 27
• Ye Feng learned the style directly from his demonstrations and rapidly advanced through its realms under his instruction. 27 28
• Sword Douluo recognized the foundations of the style even after Ye Feng's later techniques had fused and evolved far beyond their original form. 191

Titled Douluo Combat Ability

Sword Douluo's experience, composure, and technique allow him to overwhelm opponents without relying on brute force alone.

• He subdued the nine-hundred-year Cat Hawk so Ye Feng could absorb its second spirit ring. 37
• He easily blocked Ye Feng's thunderfire attacks after the latter evolved into a Thunderfire Eagle, then defeated him while helping him stabilize his new strength. 112
• At Level 72, Ye Feng could force him to reveal the Seven Kill Avatar, but was ultimately overwhelmed and left exhausted. 192
• At Rank 81, Ye Feng's eight-ring Ring Fusion and Sword Douluo's crescent sword aura cancelled one another out; Sword Douluo concluded that Ye Feng could defeat some ordinary Titled Douluo. 251

Relationships

• Ning Fengzhi — Sect master under Sword Douluo's protection; Sword Douluo regularly escorts him and supports his decisions concerning Ye Feng. 4 152
• Bone Douluo — Fellow sect guardian and close friend. They constantly bicker, but cooperate in major operations and jointly protect Ye Feng. 106 152 153
• Ye Feng — Disciple-like protegé who calls him “Sword Grandpa.” Sword Douluo trains him in combat, teaches him the Seven Kill Sword Style, oversees several spirit-ring hunts, and repeatedly spars with him. 20 21 27 112 192
• Ning Rongrong — The sect's young heir. Sword Douluo gives her a Storage Soul Tool alongside Ye Feng and permits her to observe Ye Feng's training. 20 21
• Dugu Bo — Initially dismisses the Poison Douluo's attempt to confront the sect at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well; later works alongside him as part of the sect's strengthened forces. 108 152
• Chrysanthemum Douluo (Yue Guan) — His arrival to defend Ye Feng causes Yue Guan to retreat, demonstrating the pressure Sword Douluo places on Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo. 215
