Background / History

Yi Xiaofeng first appears in Pure Yang City under the identity of the weak cultivator Zhang Junyi. While investigating City Lord Tang's death with Zeng Shu, he conceals his true capability and quickly becomes suspicious of Tang Yiqian. His early success relies as much on bluffing and observation as combat: he scares off a hostile strongman by acting like an NPC, then begins studying the Pure Yang Five Swords Technique. 4 6

After @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@ transfers her cultivation to him, Yi gains greatly increased physical strength and spiritual power. Drawing the sword that came with Zhang Junyi's identity gives him an immediate sense of affinity; he feels born to be a swordsman. 13 16 He uses the Pure Yang Five Swords Technique and a Fireball Spell to defeat Hunter Xu, then learns that @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@'s demonic blood makes her the target of the script's opposing side. 17 19

He chooses to protect @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@ even if the world regards him as an Evil Demon, searching the City Lord's Mansion for the Pure Yang Pill needed for her awakening. The decision turns him into the most popular contestant's livestream within an hour. 19 Wei Qixin later rescues him after he, @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@, and Tang Yiqian leap from a cliff; Yi begins cultivating the Nine Nether Prajna Skill and receives an invitation to Su Xin Palace. 26

@@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871719@@ becomes Yi's master and establishes him as the Sword Saint's disciple. Yi later enters Supreme Valley alongside @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@, @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_872178@@, and @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_872199@@, while defining @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871719@@ as the master who brought him into cultivation, @@REF_ENT@@REF_ENTITY_12466028@@TY_871713@@ as the family he wants to build, and Supreme Valley as his sect. 82

Following his Foundation Establishment breakthrough, Yi enters the Demon Realm to seek the Demon Sword. He accumulates techniques, treasures, disciples, and public renown, eventually founding and expanding the World Under Heaven Swordsman. 117 121 284 His influence grows from accepting 463 Qi Refining players at Severing Sky Valley to conquering Dragon City, taking nine affiliated forces, and annexing the Nether Sky Gate. 284 334 373 410
