Background and History
Wutong Academy
Bai Youyue was present at Wutong Academy when Li Dalu was gravely injured outside the blacksmith shop. She rushed there with Old Man Sun after hearing Wang Xian call for help and examined the wounded Li Dalu herself 255.
She referred to Wang Xian as her disciple and chose to leave the academy with him and Li Dalu, confident that Wang Xian would find a way to save the injured boy 263. During their exploration of a hidden cavern, she accompanied Wang Xian into the newly revealed underground plaza 266.
Bai Youyue later tempered herself with two jars of Divine Medicine Dragon Blood while reciting the Longevity Scripture 266.
Imperial City and Dragon Severing Mountain
Before departing the world, Bai Youyue involved herself in Imperial City affairs because she did not want enemies such as Humen Pass City Lord Wang Jinming to remain a threat to Wang Xian 493 496. Her actions brought her into the Imperial Court, where officials recognized the killing intent surrounding her and connected her to Wang Jinming's death 497.
She ultimately chose to go to Dragon Severing Mountain, leaving Zi Jin with her final instructions and entrusting her with an important secret 512.
At Dragon Severing Mountain, Bai Youyue faced thousands of cultivators who had gathered to kill her. She calmly broke Yan Ruobing's sword strike, endured the sects' coordinated assault, and turned their arrows back with a devouring force that drained the life force of those struck 535.
When Yan Ruobing and nine Law Enforcement Hall elders formed a ten-person sword array, Bai Youyue faced them alone. A single bamboo arrow broke the formation and killed nine of the ten cultivators 536 537. She later struck down Dongfang Xuanyi and several sect elders with her bamboo bow and arrows, then released an aura of Chaos Qi after drinking from the Grape Wine Nightglow Cup and consuming a Spirit Pill 539.
A sword sent through time by Wang Xian and Yang Wanjin severed Hundred Flowers Granny's arm, saving Bai Youyue. She subsequently ascended, leaving her bamboo bow behind for Zi Jin and the Teacher 547.
Appearance
Bai Youyue is depicted as a young woman or maiden in flowing white robes. Her composed bearing remains unchanged even when surrounded by hostile cultivators 493 535.
- White robes that flutter as she moves through the Imperial City and onto Dragon Severing Mountain 493.
- Long black hair, which remains still even during her effortless sword strikes 536.
- An outwardly calm, almost indifferent expression in battle 535 536.
Personality
Bai Youyue is fiercely protective of Wang Xian. Although she originally intended to focus on cultivating the Longevity Scripture and preparing to leave the world, she intervened against Wang Jinming because she refused to let further enemies target her disciple 496.
She is direct, proud, and dismissive of opponents who rely on numbers or underhanded tactics. Even when facing the Four Great Sects, she does not retreat or show fear 535 538. Her confidence is matched by restraint: she initially states that she does not need to act because Wang Xian can save Li Dalu himself 263.
Abilities & Skills
Swordsmanship
Bai Youyue's swordsmanship is powerful enough to overwhelm elite cultivators with casual movements.
- Deflected Yan Ruobing's sword strike with a single swing of her spirit sword 535.
- Destroyed Yan Ruobing's spirit sword and wounded him without visible effort 536.
- Her sword strike was considered more than ten times stronger than Wang Xian's earlier Ask Heaven strike; even Kunlun Sword Sect's Supreme Elder had to use Sky Thunder to block it 538.
- Uses power condensed from cultivators she previously devoured rather than relying solely on her own strength or borrowed heaven-and-earth power 536.
Devouring Power
Bai Youyue can use a devouring force against attackers.
- Turned an incoming rain of iron arrows back upon the cultivators who fired them 535.
- The devouring power drained the life force of those struck, causing heavy casualties among the attackers 535.
- The power she accumulated from devoured cultivators could be incorporated into her sword attacks 536.
Bamboo Bow and Arrows
Her bamboo bow is a decisive weapon against groups and powerful elders.
- Broke a ten-person sword formation with a single bamboo arrow 537.
- Killed nine Deity Transformation Realm cultivators in that attack, including Kunlun Sword Sect's Law Enforcement Elder 537.
- Used bamboo arrows to immobilize Dongfang Xuanyi and strike down several sect elders 539.
- Left the bamboo bow to Zi Jin and the Teacher upon ascending 547.
