Background
Bai Yuxia possesses a natural Sword Body and a clear Sword Heart, constitutions that make her exceptionally suited to sword cultivation. The old Valley Master of Absolute Sword Valley accepted her as a disciple when she was young, and she devoted herself to cultivation thereafter. Her talent eventually made her the Valley Master, though the sect’s Grand Elder handles much of its routine administration. 189 190
She is regarded as an extraordinary prodigy even among elite martial artists: she entered the Innate Realm at sixteen and the Heaven and Man Realm at thirty-five. 189
Appearance
Bai Yuxia projects a cool, detached presence even when speaking courteously. 190
- Her skin is described as snow-white. 197
- After being imprisoned and starved during an other-world trial, she was reduced to a skeletal, emaciated state before recovering through food and restored Blood Essence. 197
- Her aura becomes sharp and unparalleled when her sword intent and Blood Essence are active. 200
Personality
Bai Yuxia is direct, disciplined, and intensely focused on cultivation. Even when Chen Mo warns her of an approaching crisis, her immediate concern is whether the Cosmic Inquiry Hall can accelerate her cultivation. 219
She strongly dislikes owing favors and treats repayment as a personal obligation. After Chen Mo saves her from human traffickers during the trial, she relinquishes her claim to the Spirit of Heaven and Earth and World Core in order to repay him. 197 212
Her reserved manner softens around those she trusts. Over time, she and Chen Mo develop a cordial friendship built on mutual respect, practical cooperation, and shared concern for future threats. 219 233

Story Role / Major Arcs
Barbarian Bull Hunt and Absolute Sword Valley Trade
Chen Mo first observes Bai Yuxia battling a Heaven and Man Realm Barbarian Bull in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. She kills it with the Mystic Heaven Severing Sword but is immediately targeted by a black sable seeking to steal the carcass; Chen Mo drives the sable away. 189 190
Bai Yuxia then conducts a major trade with Chen Mo on behalf of Absolute Sword Valley, purchasing his materials, weapons, and artifacts for 1,400 Heaven and Earth Yuan Stones. She also insists on giving him half of the Barbarian Bull’s refined essence blood in gratitude for his assistance. 190
Heavenly Court Secret Realm
Bai Yuxia meets Chen Mo, the Blood Sea Master, and Shui Qianqiu at the Heavenly Palace before entering the Heavenly Court Secret Realm. She explains the first two trials—the Path of Inquiry and Martial Ascent Pagoda—and warns that the third trial will require direct competition. 193
Other-World Trial
Bai Yuxia’s avatar arrives in an eroded world in a weakened state and is captured by human traffickers. Chen Mo rescues her and the other prisoners before they can be delivered as blood food to the Black Mountain Demon King. 197
In return, Bai Yuxia allies with Chen Mo to locate the Spirit of Heaven and Earth and World Core. She accepts the Precious Elephant Chaos Heaven Pill to restore enough strength to protect herself, later using Chen Mo’s Blood Essence and divinity to rebuild her avatar’s power. 197 199 202
She hunts demon kings on Chen Mo’s behalf, returning with fourteen demon cores, and joins the battle against the Black Mountain Demon King. 200 203 204
Retrieval of the Spirit of Heaven and Earth
Bai Yuxia delays Taihao Dragon Lord while Chen Mo uses Great Zhou’s National Fortune Dragon Qi to draw out the Spirit of Heaven and Earth. She employs the Heavenly Secret Seal to suppress the Dragon Lord’s worldly power, then assails him with sword rain until the seal begins to fail. 208
The battle leaves her severely depleted and injured, requiring Chen Mo’s law power and a Blood Pill to stabilize her. 208 210
World Core and Later Cultivation
Bai Yuxia guards the World Core while Chen Mo returns to merge his avatar with his main body and break through. When he offers her the chance to fuse with the World Core, she refuses, maintaining that Chen Mo should retain both it and the Spirit of Heaven and Earth. 211 212
She later reaches the Divine Power Realm, cultivates in the Cosmic Inquiry Hall using resources worth over 20,000 drops of Heaven and Earth Divine Liquid, and joins Chen Mo’s trusted group exploring Ruin. 218 233 244 245
