Background / History
Xiao is connected to Luo Mo as both his soul and the source of a Soul Skill space. When Xiao Wu encounters the space, Luo Mo identifies the soul within it as his own and states that the space itself is his Soul Skill. 5
Its remnant soul is counted among the “Ten Great Treasures” discussed around Tang San. It can grow rather than remain fixed: after finding a spiritual pillar, the remnant soul independently absorbs its energy and gains greater spiritual capacity and fire resistance. 13
Later, Xiao absorbs the power of a thousand-year-old Demon King’s Soul Ring. The energy integrates with Tian Meng and produces a defensive technique capable of turning sand into armor. 29
Personality
Xiao is described as normally silent but notably more knowledgeable than the Heavenly Venerate. Rather than pursuing ascension through heavenly trials, it prefers treasure hunting. 7
It works in concert with Luo Mo and Tian Meng when power or Soul Ring energy must be integrated, while its later auxiliary-system designation suggests a support-oriented role rather than direct combat specialization. 29 45
