Background / History
Qin Yun transmigrated from Earth to the Douluo Continent and received the Happy Birthday System, which grants him a reward from his mother on Earth each birthday. Its rewards can include Soul Power, Soul Bones, or improved cultivation methods 1.
Finding cultivation more fulfilling than worldly pleasures, he settled beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in Sunset Forest. He spent his time cultivating, practicing swordsmanship, farming, and tending plants. As others gathered around his home, it grew into the Qingyun Sect, with Qin Yun as its nominal sect master 1.
After the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking appeared, Qin Yun predicted that the sect could no longer remain hidden 2. Learning that other Level 99 experts existed, he asked Dugu Bo for Yellow Dragon Pills and went into seclusion to stabilize his newly attained level 13.
Appearance
Qin Yun has a slender build and an elegant bearing 1.
Personality
Qin Yun prefers a quiet life and has little interest in conflicts that do not involve him. He declines to commit to watching the All-Continent Soul Master Competition because he expects a one-sided contest 1. He is informal with Dugu Bo, inviting him to speak plainly rather than offer flattery 1.
He encourages others to keep improving despite limits on their Soul Power. Rather than dismiss She Long for his imperfect Soul Ring configuration, Qin Yun points him toward other forms of cultivation and gives him a Self-Created Soul Skill 8.
