Background

Xu Tianxi was raised within the Xuanming Sect under the protection and guidance of his elders. Xu Xiaoyun acted as his grand-teacher, while Xu Fu treated the boy’s cultivation and safety as central to the Xu family’s future. Xu Tianxi’s mother had previously absorbed moonlight to cultivate; after her death, he displayed the same phenomenon despite possessing a Body Martial Soul. 10 11

He retained broad but incomplete knowledge from a previous life and initially had little understanding of Martial Souls or Soul Beasts. He compensated by studying extensively, developing photographic memory—identified by Yue Lao as a manifestation of unusually strong Spiritual Power. 5

His long-term objective became revenge against Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe for his mother’s death and humiliation. He resolved to eventually confront Shrek rather than abandon that grievance. 26 34

Appearance

Xu Tianxi’s appearance matures noticeably as his cultivation advances. His Martial Soul manifestations are marked by moonlight, silver eyes, and increasingly prominent divine-beast traits.

• A crescent-shaped Moon Shadow mark appears on his forehead and absorbs moonlight. 11
• When the Illusory Moon Mystic Eyes are active, silver ripple-like light gathers in his eyes and a clear moon manifests behind his head. 34
• After integrating Mountain Dragon King power, he can assume a dragon-man form covered in shield-shaped scales, with dragon horns, claws, and greatly increased size. 283
• His later soul-ring configuration includes four black, two orange, and one platinum ring. 296

Personality

Xu Tianxi is composed, analytical, and unusually mature for his age. He approaches cultivation as a problem to be studied: he memorizes opponents’ Soul Power flows, tests abilities in battle, and turns combat observations into Soul Tool or technique research. 149

He is ambitious and cautious at once. He seeks overwhelming strength, repeatedly challenges stronger opponents, and pursues divine-level advancement, but also deliberately conceals capabilities to avoid attracting premature assassination attempts. 151 239

Despite his ruthlessness toward enemies and corrupt officials, he values family, mentors, companions, and talented people worth cultivating. He uses his resources to support allies, recruits promising Soul Masters and Soul Engineers, and redirects confiscated wealth toward public relief and free Martial Soul awakenings. 208 221 293 300

Martial Souls

Illusory Moon Mystic Eyes

Xu Tianxi’s primary Martial Soul is a Body Martial Soul with characteristics of a celestial or star-type Martial Soul. It absorbs moonlight to cultivate Spiritual Power and develops through moon phases, illusion, spiritual attacks, and elemental manipulation. 10 11 280

• Can condense moonlight to enhance Spiritual Power.
• Possesses Ultimate Water characteristics from his first ring onward. 16
• Gained lightning affinity through the Deep Sea Silver Demon Whale’s ring and later acquired wind-element power from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. 38 103
• Reached great completion as the Moon God Martial Soul after the ninth ring. 533

Purple Radiance Black Tortoise Shield

Xu Tianxi’s second Martial Soul is a divine-beast Black Tortoise with an Ultimate Water attribute. It awakened after his Black Tortoise bloodline was stimulated by the Golden Hawksbill’s source power. 77 81

• Combines Black Tortoise, Bixi, and Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon-derived power.
• Reached great completion after the seventh ring and split to form the life-bound Purple Radiance Dragon Sword. 533
• Sublimated into the Water God Black Tortoise Shield after Xu Tianxi’s ascent to godhood. 458

Abilities & Skills

Cold Moon Gaze

Xu Tianxi’s first Soul Skill is a spiritual and physical attack derived from the Evil Eye Clan’s Evil Eye Gaze. 17 151

• Overwhelmed Xu Sanshi despite the latter’s defensive Martial Soul. 17
• Its ring was later elevated to the 50,000-year level through Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s origin. 151
• Can be launched through condensed moon phases rather than directly through Xu Tianxi’s eyes. 151
• Requires restraint due to its danger to weaker targets. 17

Illusion and Moon-Phase Techniques

Xu Tianxi develops combat applications based on moon phases rather than relying solely on fixed Soul Skills. 34

• First and Last Quarter Moon — splits the full moon into crescent palm-blades with strong cutting power.
• Illusory Moon — strengthens the hallucinatory nature of his second Soul Skill, Illusion.
• Flash Moon — enhances Cold Moon Gaze.
• Lunar Eclipse — one of his early self-developed moon-phase applications.

Divine Beast Phenomenon

A supreme combat technique taught by Xiao Changfeng. Xu Tianxi fuses Spiritual Power and Soul Power to manifest a divine-beast shadow, which can be applied to other Soul Skills. 80

• Adds both physical and spiritual damage.
• Draws upon his divine-beast bloodline.
• Later evolved into more advanced divine-beast and Black Tortoise combinations.

Moon God’s Protection

Xu Tianxi’s fourth Soul Skill provides powerful moonlight-based defense. 103 149

• Formed a clear-radiance barrier that blocked Tang Xiaolei’s final three ring-arrows.
• Can be supplemented by a manifested full moon that fires moonlight to destroy incoming attacks. 149

Thousand Eye Soul Capture

Xu Tianxi’s sixth Soul Skill originates from the Silver Moon Wolf King’s transformed talent. 296

• Invades the target’s Sea of Spirit with mental intent and dragon-wolf pressure.
• Can control targets whose Mental Will is roughly one rank below his own.
• Leaves a silver Dragon Wolf mark; forceful resistance can trigger Spiritual Power backlash, confusion, or mental collapse.
• Requires preparation and maintenance, making it unsuitable for instant control during most battles.
• Ineffective against powerful Dragon Race bloodlines. 296

Mystic Nether Ice Scorpion Prison

A powerful ice-based control skill used against the Evil Orca King. 242

• Seals the target inside a glacier.
• Combines Xu Tianxi’s Frost Black Tortoise power with Ice Empress-derived abilities.
• Was broken by the Evil Orca King’s Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon. 242

Moon Seal Seven Luminaries

A high-level control-and-attack skill that combines multiple elemental effects. 236

• Traps targets while inducing paralysis and mental confusion.
• Inflicts both physical and spiritual damage through seven elemental powers.
• Can suppress or strip elemental power; its Ultimate Water effect forced Xu Xiaoyun to unseal more Soul Power. 236

Harmony of Man and Nature

Xu Tianxi develops an advanced combat state that aligns his body, Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and the surrounding world. 236 279

• Improves spatial awareness, elemental control, and the ability to mobilize Heaven and Earth Origin Power.
• Allows his movements and breathing to synchronize with natural laws.
• Became stable and substantially stronger after his time in Dragon Valley. 278 279

Self-Created Combat Techniques

By his later cultivation, Xu Tianxi relies heavily on self-created techniques rather than conventional Soul Skills. 533

• Heaven and Earth Separation — solidifies a region of space, then uses the Purple Radiance Dragon Sword and destructive spatial power to sever it.
• Condensing Qi into Divine Sword — gathers Heaven and Earth Origin Power into a sword strike comparable to a top-tier tool-Martial Soul Limit Douluo’s full-power attack.
• Asura Undying, Destruction Non-existence — an exceptionally lethal destruction-based technique.
• Divine Pupil Transformation into Silver Dragon — transforms Spiritual Power into nine silver dragons containing dragon-race combat principles.
• Sun Moon Taiji Diagram — formed through three Golden-Level Body Martial Soul awakenings and Yin-Yang balance. 533
