Background / History

Su Ming is a transmigrator who entered Azure Cloud Sect with a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root and initially suffered from extremely slow cultivation. He activated the Life Simulator, which allowed him to experience possible futures, draw Talents, and bring selected rewards back into reality. His early simulations taught him to treat cultivation as a survival problem rather than blindly following the sect’s path 1.

He gained Innate Wisdom Root, mastered multiple Outer Sect techniques, reached Qi Refining Tenth Layer, and killed a Foundation Establishment cultivator during a mission against the Demonic Cult 2. He later suspected that Azure Cloud Sect’s Foundation Establishment Pills were compromised, obtained the Alchemy Prodigy Talent, and began refining his own pills rather than relying on the sect’s supply 3.

Su Ming’s distrust of Azure Cloud Sect deepened after he discovered that Inner Sect Elder Mo Chen had obstructed his development and that Foundation Establishment cultivators could be devoured by Sinister Worms. He learned that the danger surrounding Foundation Establishment was rooted in the cultivation system itself and that many apparently human cultivators were already controlled by Sinister Worms 9 24.

His early simulations also revealed the Immortal Falling Secret Realm and its Bronze Divine Hall. The hall admitted him because he had reached the Extreme Realm of Qi Refining, granting him six complete cultivation arts and showing murals of ancient conflicts involving a giant insect and what he suspected to be the Heavenly Dao. These discoveries supplied both cultivation methods and clues to the Canglan Realm’s hidden history 14 18.

After discovering the threat posed by Sinister Worms and Cunning Insects, Su Ming turned against Azure Cloud Sect. He escaped with Ye Chuxue and slaughtered several thousand of the sect’s Foundation Establishment disciples in a single hour, believing them to be part of the larger danger 22.

He later joined Sword Pavilion, a rare force composed entirely of normal humans. There he developed his sword path, learned the relationship between Sword Intent and Nascent Soul breakthroughs, and became increasingly committed to fighting Cunning Insects and protecting his companions 23 24.

Before leaving the Canglan Realm, Su Ming relocated the Sword Pavilion disciples to the Great Desolate Secret Realm in Barren Prefecture and secured the Black King’s cooperation. He subsequently obtained Primordial Dragon Essence Blood from the Black King’s ancestral land to strengthen his prospects of surviving beyond the realm 206 207 209.

After leaving the Canglan Realm, Su Ming entered the Immortal Domains, obtained the Primordial Ancient Lamp, and clashed with powers such as the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect. His efforts to protect Su Qingyuan led him to assist the Sacred Heaven Immortal Sovereign’s breakthrough, establish alliances, and become deeply involved in the Canglan Realm’s defense against Bizarre Creatures 451 507 554.

Su Ming also established a Sword Pavilion in the Immortal Domains. His public declaration completed a Simulator mission before he escaped the Immortal Spirit Sect with Ye Wushuang and established a base in the Starfall Mountain Range 383 384.

Su Ming was eventually recognized as the Human Emperor’s successor through the Dingjun Sword, Human Emperor War Flag, and the “Ming” mark left within the Human Emperor’s inheritance. He inherited knowledge concerning the Void, the Human Emperor Treasury, and his role as a possible vessel capable of controlling Void Power 723 806 842.

Following the fall of Xuanji Hall and the deterioration caused by incomplete Void fusion, Su Ming joined the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. He exposed its hidden traitor, reorganized its military structure around merit, and became the central leader of its resistance against The Weird 868 875 888.

After recovering from the destruction of Great Emperor Envy, Su Ming resumed command of the alliance and secured the support of the Profound Sun Sword Sect, Qingqiu Demon Kingdom, and Blood Fiend Devil Abyss. He has since directed a unified multinational resistance, defeated or repelled Great Emperors Fury and Sloth, and begun systematically destroying The Weird’s secondary altars and supply network 960 968 978 986.

The alliance’s investigations identified an Origin Core deep within the Ruins Realm as the mechanism enabling the enemy Great Emperors to reconstruct their bodies. Su Ming participated in the destruction of the Transit Altar and explored the Ruins Realm, where he encountered warnings left by the Human Emperor and restrictions requiring Great Emperor-level power. Because the seal was weakening, he resolved to return after further advancement rather than leave the threat unexplored 951 1014 1019.

After reaching Immortal Emperor Supreme, Su Ming immediately led reinforcements to Profound Ice City and assumed command of a fifty-thousand-strong allied northern expedition. He settled the Three Factions’ renewed challenge to his authority through a martial demonstration, then conducted a methodical campaign that wounded Fury and Sloth, recovered territory, and established a joint defensive system 1022 1025 1026 1027 1030.

His subsequent investigation of heretical cultivators uncovered intelligence concerning the Black Baleful Church, Living Soul Altars, the summoning of Nether Generals, and a coordinated attack from within and without. He returned to camp with a map and secret letter and convened the Three Factions’ elders to address the threat 1032 1040.

Personality

Su Ming is calculating, cautious, and intensely pragmatic. He uses simulations to prepare for threats, tests the reliability of others, and avoids revealing information unless doing so serves a clear purpose. He will conceal his cultivation, manipulate circumstances, or flee stronger enemies when direct confrontation is disadvantageous 32 40 68.

He is also decisive and ruthless toward enemies he considers dangerous. His actions against Azure Cloud Sect, the Four Great Families, and hostile Bizarre Creatures show that he is willing to eliminate entire forces when he believes they threaten humanity or his goals 22 173 185.

Despite this ruthlessness, Su Ming is protective of those close to him. He repeatedly supports Ye Chuxue’s cultivation, risks himself to rescue Zhou Lingxi, seeks ways to stabilize the Peerless War King, and works to prevent tragedies he witnessed through simulations 45 81 565 599.

His later experiences as the Human Emperor’s successor strengthen his sense of responsibility toward humanity. Although he remains wary of large factions and internal politics, he accepts leadership when it is necessary to preserve human lives and oppose The Weird 806 868 883.

Su Ming is willing to bear severe personal costs for victory. He has sacrificed lifespan, endured Chaos Tribulations, forcibly interrupted Void fusion, and even detonated his origin to destroy Great Emperor Envy 328 607 859 914. His loss of memories during his incomplete Void fusion particularly frightens him, as he refuses to forget the people and goals that define him 872 884.

As Alliance Leader, Su Ming favors results over status and refuses to yield military authority or resources to factions merely because of their background. He is prepared to use overwhelming personal strength to establish terms, but delegates logistics, recruitment, and day-to-day governance to capable subordinates rather than attempting to control every detail himself 958 960 962 968.

His caution extends to cultivation: even when a breakthrough is within reach, he prefers to temper his foundation rather than advance hastily and risk hidden defects. He also remains conscious of how small the alliance’s successes are compared with the threat deeper in the Ruins Realm 990 1019.

When immediate lives are at stake, Su Ming places duty ahead of personal recovery or celebration. After reaching Immortal Emperor Supreme, he rejected a period of rest and personally led the relief of Profound Ice City. The slaughter of civilians along the route strengthened his determination to repay the enemy’s blood debt 1022.

His northern campaign demonstrates restraint alongside decisiveness. He insists on unified command, but favors secure advances, fortified positions, and sustainable defenses over reckless pursuit or costly assaults undertaken merely to extend a victory 1025 1027 1030.

A spatial movement technique central to Su Ming’s mobility and survival.

• Teleports through space and allows rapid escape from stronger opponents.

• Its effectiveness increased by 50% after Su Ming gained Mastery of Movement Techniques 22 40 45 66.

• Later developed into the Primordial Dragon Race’s spatial divine ability, Primordial Dragon Travel 508.

• At his One Tribulation breakthrough, its increased speed allowed him to transport his companions across the Endless Sea to Barren Prefecture in approximately one month 206.

Chaos Body

Su Ming possesses the rare and resource-intensive Chaos Body.

• Requires vastly greater resources for each breakthrough than ordinary physiques.
• Grants enormous physical strength and combat potential.
• Can be fused with his True Dragon Treasure Body.
• Enabled him to defeat a Quasi Immortal Sovereign Weird Priest despite lower cultivation 519 549 717.
• Its Chaos Power later supported the Chaos Nine Tribulations Transformation, granting emperor-level physical combat power 607.
• The Heart of Chaos formed inside his body after he cultivated in the Chaos Spring Eye, further improving his control over Chaos Spiritual Energy and Primordial Dragon Travel 825 826.
• His constitution is comparable to the Human Emperor’s Chaos Body and is uniquely suited to containing Void Power 681 918.
• The laws of heaven and earth can deliberately suppress its advancement. In a simulation, Su Qingyuan’s Origin Divine Ability temporarily weakened this suppression, enabling him to reach the fourth layer of Immortal Lord, though stronger suppression later prevented a fifth-layer breakthrough 524.

• The technique enabled Su Ming and Ye Chuxue to escape the Canglan Realm during the Cunning Insect Progenitor’s descent 423.
• His bloodline and True Dragon Treasure Body allowed him to gain the trust of the Situ siblings and inherit the Primordial Dragon Emperor Art 327 328.
• Can use Dragon Blood Boiling and overwhelming bloodline pressure against dragon-descended beings and demonic beasts 327.
• His own blood carries a potent True Dragon aura and was sufficient to bring the Black King Palace under his command 207.
• Primordial Dragon Emperor Art is an Immortal Sovereign cultivation technique and the Primordial Dragon Race’s most powerful method. It requires both direct-descendant bloodline and at least 95% bloodline concentration, conditions Su Ming fulfilled after refining the ancestral blood and cultivating in the pool 328.

Void Power

Su Ming possesses Void Power, an ancient force connected to the final destination of all things.

• Initially acquired through contact with the source of Great Emperor Envy, which infected him with the Source of the Weird 709 714.
• The Human Emperor explained that Void Power is not inherently hostile, but serves as part of the lock preventing the Void’s return 842.
• During incomplete fusion, its use caused Su Ming’s body to become intangible and led to severe memory loss 859 862 884.
• He initially regained sufficient control to return to battle against six Great Emperors, but continued use still worsened the etherealization of his left arm and required repeated spatial barriers to contain it 920 924 962.
• He subsequently completed his fusion with Void Power, eliminating the prior backlash and allowing Void Power to circulate as a natural part of his body 973 978.
• Can create Threads of Void that return an enemy’s flesh, treasure, and origin to nothingness 924.
• Can reinforce formations, injure Great Emperors, block Great Emperor Fury’s attacks, and force Bizarre Emperor forces into strategic retreat 921 924 928.
• His Void Power can dissolve ordinary spiritual power, Sword Qi, Killing Intent, and the Source of the Weird; he used it to suppress the Profound Sun Sword Lord and intimidate the Blood Fiend Devil Abyss 960 966.
• Can strike across extreme distances with sufficient precision to gravely injure an early-stage Great Emperor while supporting allied forces at a secondary altar 980 986.
• Can cleanse entrenched Weird corruption from another cultivator’s body and meridians, as demonstrated when he restored the Peerless War King and Situ Hao Yue 809.
• Can form layered Void Barriers to conceal an expedition’s presence. At Half-Step Immortal Emperor Supreme, he regarded the consumption of four such layers as negligible and believed even a Great Emperor might fail to discern his true strength 996.
• His Void Power and Grey Mist strengthened further as he tempered his foundation for the Immortal Emperor Supreme breakthrough 1019.

Return-to-Silence Origin

Su Ming’s Void Power evolved into Return-to-Silence Origin when he reached Immortal Emperor Supreme.

• Fully controllable and free from the former Void-related backlash, representing a further refinement beyond his completed fusion 1022.
• Together with his new cultivation, makes him unrivaled beneath the Emperor Realm and capable of fighting an ordinary Great Emperor Initial Stage cultivator 1022.

• His post-breakthrough Void attacks dissolved Li Changfeng’s Radiant Sun Slash, erased Zhang Xuan’s wind blades and bronze-mirror shield, and repelled Bai Xuan’s Nine-Tailed Heaven-Burning Art without requiring him to move 1026.

• Deduced the existence of powerful cultivators in You Prefecture, but stopped due to severe backlash 81.
• Predicted the Qingxuan Realm’s occupation by the Abnormal Clan and danger to the Hope Zone 225.
• His deductions repeatedly warn allied forces of Bizarre Creature crises 559.
• His ability to contact Bizarre Emperor Envy through deduction came at the cost of contamination by the Source of the Weird 714.
• His awareness of future conflicts, secondary altars, and enemy deployments remains a major advantage in planning the alliance’s campaigns 956 986.
• Reconstructed part of an incomplete Heavenly Mystery Art using the Young Supreme Being Talent and reached its introductory stage after two years 81.
• His improved Heavenly Evolution Art sharpened his perception. He also taught it to Ye Chuxue and, in an earlier simulation, Zhou Lingxi, whose Immortal Eye was particularly compatible with the method 38 81.

Seven Emotions Balancing Technique

A heart-cultivation method taught to Su Ming by Wen Dao to control abnormal emotional influence.

• Does not depend upon Spiritual Energy or ordinary comprehension, instead requiring careful observation and control of one’s emotions.
• Helps Su Ming resist the influence of the Source of the Weird and emotional corruption connected to Bizarre Emperors.

• Learned to refine his own Foundation Establishment Pills after distrusting Azure Cloud Sect’s supply 3.
• Passed an alchemy trial in the Guiyuan Immortal Domain.
• Retrieved lost pill recipes and alchemical insights from the Alchemy Scripture Pavilion 811.
• Collected the core materials and Pill Recipe needed for the Nirvana Pill, enabling Su Qingyuan to refine pills for the resurrection of the Sword Emperor and Chen Xuanji 810 812.
• Was known as “Pill King Su” during his years in the Great Zhou Dynasty after refining high-quality pills for rogue cultivators 37.
• Reached fifth-grade alchemist status during a simulated stay in the Great Zhou capital; in another sequence, he disclosed his fourth-grade status to Lin Tian to facilitate a visit to the Pill Sect 37 40.
• Recovered the Alchemy Emperor’s legacy, including Jade Slips beneath the Alchemy Scripture Pavilion and two preserved pills. He left a trial-made Soul-Nurturing Pill as a tribute to the deceased emperor 769.
• Studied the Alchemy Emperor’s recipes and refining methods during his later journey to collect the resurrection materials 811.

External Incarnation

Su Ming possesses an External Incarnation that acts as an independent combatant, scout, and cultivation asset.

• Received a middle-stage Spirit Transmutation incarnation as part of the rewards claimed through “I Want It All!” and can control it through his Primordial Spirit 66.
• Armed it with the Great Void Sword and sent it to destroy the Feather Ascension Sect, completing a mission that awarded three simulation attempts 66.

Other Combat and Survival Techniques

• Azure Emperor Longevity Art — Provides immense vitality and recovery. In an early simulation, Su Ming used it to sustain a life-for-life exchange and kill a Core Formation cultivator despite being at Foundation Establishment 14.
• Great Desolation Sky Prison Finger — An inherited offensive divine ability used against the Azure Cloud Sect Master and a Mahayana elder of Hao Tian Holy Land 18 66 150.
• True Sight — Reveals information such as race, cultivation, Spiritual Root, and talent. Su Ming used it to identify Lin Zhantian as a human cultivator and discover Zhou Lingxi’s Natural-Born Immortal Eyes 37 40.
• Soul Searching — Used on Jun Moxiao after crippling him at Sword Mountain, though the search provided no useful intelligence 20.
• Sky Slaying — A powerful offensive technique used to destroy Bizarre Creatures while rescuing Su Chen in Black Rock Valley 433.
