Background

Han Yi transmigrated into the cultivation world at the age of twenty-one. His previous life’s workplace experience made him wary of exposing secrets, even to friends; this caution shaped his approach to alliances, trade, and survival. 4 137

He initially cultivated within the Profound Pill Sect, but spent twelve uninterrupted days refining pills and cultivating, causing him to miss the Return-to-Sect Assessment deadline. His residence was reclaimed, and Guan Di arranged for him to serve as an externally dispatched sect disciple at the Mystic Fire Pill Shop in Mengshan City. 3 4

Alchemy became Han Yi’s primary source of cultivation resources. He refined and sold pills through private transactions with disciples of Little Spirit Void Peak, deliberately avoiding public attention and refusing offers of Dao companionship. 26 28

Appearance

Han Yi normally appears as a mature, steady young man despite his advancing age. At forty-three, he still retained a youthful appearance; his original height was approximately 1.85 meters. 137 180

• Uses the Disguise Technique extensively to alter his face, body type, height, aura, and apparent cultivation. 180 343
• Can assume identities such as the refined scholar-like visage from his previous life or the thin, inconspicuous form he adopted after mastering disguise. 180
• Often carries a sword, most notably the Azure Duckweed Sword. 219 406

Personality

Han Yi is cautious, secretive, and practical. He considers excessive disclosure dangerous, keeps business dealings discreet, and avoids conflicts that do not serve his survival or cultivation. 4 26 47

In battle, he is decisive rather than reckless. When outmatched, he conceals himself, retreats, expends valuable tools, or abandons pursuit; when cornered, he acts quickly and violently to remove threats. 47 50 128 162

Despite his guarded nature, Han Yi repays favors and protects people he considers his own. He aided He Fangwei in locating the Fu family, repeatedly searched for Zheng Hai, returned to the Profound Pill Sect upon learning of Qin Wuxian’s death, and later left resources behind for the sect’s development. 171 238 384

His increasing strength gradually made him more assertive. He became willing to establish organizations, negotiate on his own terms, and openly confront cultivators who threatened him or his allies. 232 533 657

Abilities & Skills

Proficiency Panel

Han Yi possesses a pale-red Proficiency Panel that records his lifespan, cultivation, techniques, skills, and their advancement. It allows him to steadily improve techniques beyond the limits normally imposed by cultivation realm. 61 107 253

• Lets him advance a broad set of combat, movement, defensive, alchemy, concealment, and soul techniques through repeated use. 40 107

• Its Return to Simplicity breakthrough allowed Han Yi to swiftly defeat Li Yuanyi before confronting the entity within him. 181
• Its Transcendence into Sainthood breakthrough more than tripled the speed of his sword light. 242
• Later developed into the Immortal Spell Sword Flight, which he used as a final move against Half-Immortal Pang Cheng. 390 406

Sword Formations and Sword Realm

Han Yi developed a Sword Realm alongside his Sword Control Technique and later wielded the Return to the Void Sword Formation. 215 321

Body Cultivation and Divine Race Arts

Han Yi cultivated the Ancient God Contemplation Method, later developing a formidable Divine Fire Battle Body and Divine Race path alongside Immortal Dao cultivation. 204 342 614

• Manifested a complete Divine Body exceeding 830 million zhang and defeated three Mid Divine Venerables with one punch. 843

Concealment, Disguise, and Divination
