Background

Di Jun and his younger brother, East Emperor Taiyi, were born on the Sun Star, which formed from Pangu's left eye. Both carry the Three-legged Golden Crow bloodline and were blessed with immense fortune; Di Jun's companion treasure is the River Diagram and Luo Script. 65 67

After leaving their long seclusion on the Sun Star, the brothers witnessed the Demon Race's oppression by the Witch Clan. Di Jun resolved to unite the scattered demons, promising to end their internal strife and raise the race to supremacy in the Primordial Wilderness. His inherent Emperor's Destiny and commanding presence establish him as the Demon Race's true leader, even though Taiyi is stronger in direct combat. 67 68

Appearance

Di Jun is a handsome, sharp-eyed man with a royal bearing. He wears a dark-yellow robe embroidered with sun motifs and the image of a three-legged golden crow. 128

• Regal and imposing demeanor.
• Dark-yellow imperial attire bearing Sun Star and Golden Crow imagery.
• His aura carries an overwhelming imperial pressure capable of forcing weaker cultivators to kneel. 67 68

Personality

Di Jun is an ambitious and pragmatic ruler whose foremost priority is the Demon Court's survival and growth. He recruits powerful allies, develops the Demon Race's cultivation methods, commissions defensive formations, and seeks political advantages rather than relying solely on force. 68 90 125

He is notably more restrained than Taiyi in volatile situations. During the conflict over a treasure, he stops Taiyi from escalating Zhurong's attack and proposes that the strongest contestant should claim the prize. 93

Despite his imperial severity, Di Jun can be considerate toward his subjects. Xihe persuades him to show kindness to the impoverished Wu Yue and her son Canyang; afterward, he invites Canyang to visit the garden and becomes concerned with fostering the child's potential. 209 210 217

His devotion to the Demon Court also creates painful compromises. After learning that only one of his ten sons may remain, he still sends them to study under the Three-legged Crow because he believes their fate may determine the Demon Court's future. 278

Story Role / Major Arcs

Founding the Demon Race

Di Jun identifies the Witch Clan as the greatest threat to demon-kind and begins unifying demon beasts under his and Taiyi's leadership. He establishes the Demon Race in the Heavenly Court, receiving Heavenly Dao merit for himself, Taiyi, the Demon Sages, and the assembled demons. 68 90 91

Expansion of the Demon Court

He expands the Demon Court by recruiting Fuxi, Nuwa, and Kunpeng. Di Jun's River Diagram and Luo Script prove decisive in disabling Kunpeng's North Sea-backed defense, allowing Taiyi to force Kunpeng's submission and unite the beast race under the Demon Race. 108 110

Defensive Preparations and Sainthood

Seeking to secure the Demon Court against its enemies, Di Jun supports Fuxi's construction of the Star Array of the Heavens. Later, he and Taiyi accept Qing Tian's Dao Affinity, becoming Saints while permanently losing the possibility of surpassing that realm. 125 133

Moon Star Marriage Alliance

While seeking a breakthrough among the stars, Di Jun meets Xihe at Guanghan Palace. Their mutual attraction is tied to his extreme yang Sun Star origin and her extreme yin Moon Star origin. Xihe eventually returns with him to the Demon Court, and their marriage forms an alliance between the Demon Court and the Moon Star. 127 128 142 152

Fatherhood and the Demon Court's Future

Di Jun worries that the Demon Court lacks a younger generation capable of matching rivals such as Chi You and Ao Bing. Xihe later gives birth to ten sons, whom Di Jun regards as the Demon Court's hope; Qing Tian warns, however, that their great power may bring danger. 209 217 235 236

When Qing Tian reveals the Three-legged Crow's prophecy that Di Jun's ten sons can change the Great Wilderness's fate, Di Jun chooses to send them to become her disciples despite learning that only one may remain. 278

War, Loss, and Sacrifice

After his sons injure Xing Tian, Di Jun accepts responsibility, apologizes to Di Jiang, and offers the Demon Court's precious Lingzhi Grass for Xing Tian's treatment. 324 325

Following the deaths of his children, Di Jun seeks revenge against Hou Yi and Chang'e, but yields when Qing Tian offers a means to revive them. Nine sons return alive, though their spiritual roots and cultivation are ruined. 342 343

As the Demon Court deteriorates during the wider war, Canyang and Lady Commander die, the Star Array of the Heavens is broken, and Di Jun sacrifices his soul to the Demon Spirit in an attempt to reverse the Demon Court's decline. 358 365 366

Later Heavenly Court Crisis

Di Jun survives a later collapse, but Qing Tian secretly strikes him with lightning and restores his strength. Di Jun responds by ordering a statue and altered flag in Qing Tian's honor, then decisively executes alleged traitors within the Heavenly Court. 373

Fearing the unknown changes inflicted upon him, Di Jun enters absolute seclusion and warns Taiyi that no one gives power freely. He subsequently abolishes his former cultivation techniques after considering Qing Tian's advice, choosing to begin anew rather than remain bound to his previous path. 380 383

Trivia

• Di Jun builds the Demon Court's back garden after the garden of Guanghan Palace so Xihe will not feel lonely away from the Moon Star. 209
• Although stern enough that common Demon Court members fear him, he is embarrassed when Xihe points out that he rarely smiles. 210
• He considers transferring the position of Demon Emperor to Taiyi when the Demon Court's position becomes desperate. 360
