Background / History

Mo Yu accompanies Ying San to the Starry Great Forest, where they secretly watch Duoduo absorb her third soul ring. During the hunt, he uses a strange longsword from his soul guide to kill a soul beast for Duoduo, helping her secure the kill. After gaining the Star Observation talent through his diary, he realizes that an unknown party is watching him and resolves to stop hiding his strength. 15

A hundred-thousand-year Sky Roc selects and fuses with Mo Yu, unleashing a vast burst of spiritual power. The fusion is later ended by force, while Xiao Ge claims the Sky Remnant Ice Roc's legacy. The event also exposes Mo Yu as the God of Fate in the eyes of Duoduo and Xiao Feng. 17 19

He later establishes a food-stall business with Xiao Bei's support, viewing it as a way to repay her kindness and build a normal life despite his background. 46 At the academy, Mo Yu loses control of Moonsong and kills two students, leaving no recoverable remains. The incident is treated as a serious breach of academy rules because he failed to control his power. 71

Afterward, he shares a room with Guang and is startled when Guang reveals a female form. 73 During the conflict surrounding the academy, Mo Yu confronts Zhou Ji over the deaths of the academy's third-year students and leaves with the intention of finding his cousin. A year later, he returns to the academy described as a Revenant and no longer fears Wu Mei. 81

Seeking to open his second soul, Mo Yu enters the Northern Heavens under Heavenly Frost's guidance. He crosses into an ancient forbidden land, survives the pressure of a terrifying soul artifact by hiding beneath ice and mud, and is used by the Ice Empress in her attempt to awaken the Ice Crystal Emperor. 102 103 104

The Ice Empress first claims to have protected Mo Yu, then reveals her desire to consume him. Her attempted merger with him becomes a betrayal when she begins absorbing his consciousness; Heavenly Frost intervenes to stabilize him. Mo Yu eventually emerges with a remade body and the Dark Ice City as his second spiritual body. 106 109 110 112

While searching for the Ice Empress in an ice cave, Mo Yu expends the Ghost King's Core to break through an ice wall, only to lose the core in the depths below. He then confronts the threat of the ten-thousand-year Ice Queen, relying on Heavenly Frost's remaining power to survive its spiritual attacks. 151 152

Appearance

Mo Yu is a tall, sunny-looking youth with deep black hair compared to ink jade and a handsome face with a heroic air. Following his transformation, he is described as having a stronger, more substantial physique than his formerly weak body. 19 112

• Deep black, lustrous hair. 19
• Tall build and heroic-looking features. 19 71
• His right-hand fingers can crystallize into ice when Moonsong manifests. 71
• His transformed body possesses a visibly stronger physical foundation and refined spiritual power. 112

Personality

Mo Yu initially prefers to conceal his ability and avoid drawing attention, but becomes determined to abandon that restraint once he believes others have noticed his unusual strength. 15 He is observant enough to recognize when he is being watched, though his conclusions about the watcher are not always correct. 15

He is resilient under extreme pressure: he endures being stepped on by a terrifying presence in the forbidden land, continues his climb through a melting ice cave despite injury and exhaustion, and persists in seeking the Ice Empress after losing the Ghost King's Core. 103 150 151

Mo Yu can be trusting to a fault. He cooperates with the Ice Empress's painful merger process until her true intention to absorb his consciousness becomes apparent. 109 Even after betrayal and transformation, he accepts painful outcomes as part of his fate and continues pursuing greater strength. 112
