Background / History
Before becoming a Titled Douluo, Yun Ming fused six soul bones into his body. Shrek Academy's inherited soul bones and ancient soul spirits contributed to his exceptionally rapid rise; he was already a Titled Douluo in his twenties. 73 126
As Sea God Pavilion Master, he led Shrek's senior officials during Di Tian's declaration against humanity. He recognized that the missing soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest had been found and interpreted their actions as retaliation. 46
Yun Ming pursued godhood through the power of faith gathered by his wife Ya Li's Wish Angel martial soul. Later records connect his urgent need for faith to recurrent plague outbreaks, which forced Ya Li to provide relief across several continents. 142 254 282
Personality
Yun Ming is fiercely protective of Shrek and of Ya Li. At the isolated island, he immediately shielded Han Tianyi and Leng Yaozhu, then chose to confront Di Tian, the Nether Emperor, and the Ghost Emperor rather than abandon either his wife or Shrek Academy. 117 118
His protectiveness extends to allies in immediate danger. He sacrificed part of his battle armor to save Cai Yue'er from a lethal attack, even while fighting two peak Evil Soul Masters. 121
His pursuit of faith and godhood also makes him vulnerable to manipulation. Di Tian exploits his refusal to choose between Ya Li and Shrek, while Chen Xinjie later strips away the faith that sustains Yun Ming's demigod power. 118 129
Abilities & Skills
Sky-Piercing Spear
Yun Ming's spear-type martial soul, the Sky-Piercing Spear, is his primary weapon and source of his overwhelming offensive power.
- Materializes to block the Nether Emperor and Ghost Emperor's attacks, saving Han Tianyi and Leng Yaozhu. 117
- Can be transformed into the Sky-Piercing Divine Spear, a quasi-divine weapon covered in golden divine patterns. 119
- Its spear shadows suppressed both the Nether Emperor and Ghost Emperor while Yun Ming fought in rage. 121
- His ninth soul skill, Shooting Down the Sun, launches an immensely destructive spear strike. 118 249
Forbidden Flight Domain
Yun Ming can lock down surrounding airspace through Forbidden Flight: Flight Severance.
- Prevents everyone within the domain from flying, while Yun Ming retains flight within his own domain. 118 119
- Does not seal an opponent's Soul Power, speed, or combat strength. 119
- Di Tian can destroy the domain through superior spatial control. 118 119
Power of Faith and Demigod State
Faith gathered by Ya Li's Wish Angel martial soul flows to Yun Ming and supports his path toward godhood. 142
- Can draw upon faith to access divine power and enter a demigod state. 125 128
- Used Heaven-Destroying Strike at full strength against Chen Xinjie. 128
- His reliance on faith is a major weakness: Chen Xinjie forcibly extracted it, collapsing Yun Ming's demigod foundation and severely reducing his cultivation. 129
Soul Bones
Yun Ming had fused six soul bones before reaching the Titled Douluo rank. 126
- The soul bones had merged deeply with his body and formed connections to his soul.
- The severing of his left hand therefore caused extreme pain and a direct loss of Soul Power. 126
- His hand could not be reattached after the ambush. 127
Relationships
- Ya Li — His wife and the Wish Angel Soul Master whose gathered faith flows to him. Yun Ming repeatedly places her safety above all else, but Ya Li later turns against him and seeks to have him publicly disgraced. 118 142 265
- Long Yeyue — His teacher and family member within Shrek. Her death drives the conflict between Yun Ming and Chen Xinjie. 128
- Chen Xinjie — Former ally turned opponent. Chen Xinjie attacks Yun Ming to take his power of faith and awaken Ya Li in an attempt to revive Long Yeyue. 128 129
- Di Tian — Enemy responsible for forcing Yun Ming into an impossible choice between Ya Li and Shrek; Yun Ming later vows revenge after his defeat and mutilation. 117 126
- Han Tianyi — Ally whom Yun Ming rescues from the Nether Emperor and Ghost Emperor upon arriving at the isolated island. 117
- Leng Yaozhu — Ally who helps protect Ya Li before Yun Ming's arrival; Yun Ming thanks her for risking her life. 117
- Cai Yue'er — Shrek ally whom Yun Ming saves by sacrificing part of his battle armor. 121
- Zang Xin and Cao Dezhi — Tang Sect powerhouses Yun Ming intervenes to aid during their battle against Myriad Demon King and Bear Lord. 246 248
Story Role / Major Arcs
Isolated Island Crisis
Yun Ming arrives after Han Tianyi and Leng Yaozhu are nearly defeated, blocks the Evil Soul Masters' attacks, and takes their place on the front line. Di Tian then forces him to choose between protecting Ya Li and returning to defend Shrek Academy. Yun Ming rejects the choice and attempts to protect both. 117 118
He transforms his martial soul into a quasi-divine weapon, establishes the Forbidden Flight Domain, and battles Di Tian, the Nether Emperor, and the Ghost Emperor simultaneously. Qian Gu Dongfeng's interference prevents Yun Ming's Shooting Down the Sun from striking Di Tian. 118 119
Mutilation and Loss of Faith
The Demon Empress ambushes Yun Ming and severs his left hand, reducing him from quasi-godhood to Limit Douluo. He remains determined to fight, but his damaged body and disrupted connection to his divine position leave him vulnerable. 126
Chen Xinjie subsequently attacks Yun Ming over Ya Li's protection and Long Yeyue's revival. In the Vast Sea Domain, Chen Xinjie defeats him and forcibly removes his power of faith, reducing Yun Ming to a severely weakened Super Douluo. 128 129
Return to Battle
Despite his earlier collapse, Yun Ming later returns with power above the Quasi-God realm and Divine Origin spiritual power. He intervenes in the battle involving Zang Xin, Cao Dezhi, Myriad Demon King, and Bear Lord. 246 247
He attempts to destroy Lin Chen's restrained Four-Headed Vine Demon Dragon, but his strike passes through an illusion and damages Zang Xin and Cao Dezhi's fusion barrier instead. The real dragon then overwhelms him, leaving him severely injured and with most of his combat strength lost. 248 249
Exile into the Abyss
After Yun Ming's actions are exposed and he is publicly disgraced, he reportedly chooses to descend into the Abyss permanently as atonement, vowing not to return until it has been emptied. 294
