Background

Li Huahun entered the Emperor Su Sect through resources that included the Heaven-Stealing Bone-Transforming Art, a forbidden art capable of merging another being's superior bloodline traits into the user's own. The technique can only be attempted once, and failure results in death. 66

He first met Su Yi after effortlessly exterminating the Green Mountain Eighty-One Ghosts, including their Ghost King. Although he had initially been seeking the Demon Lord for a challenge, Li Huahun instead declared Su Yi his friend after sensing an unusual familiarity in his aura. He later told Su Yi that, in the boundless Desolate Ancient, only the two of them possessed fates beyond Heaven's limits. 97 98

Li Huahun's father, the silver-masked man, took an interest in Su Yi and instructed Li Huahun to protect him. This transformed Li Huahun's initial fascination into fierce loyalty; he openly threatened to destroy any sect or cult that harmed Su Yi. 100 156

His past was concealed even from himself. Li Huahun had lost more than ten thousand years of memories, while his cultivation and memories had apparently been sealed after he committed a grave crime during an earlier journey across Desolate Ancient. 386 394

Appearance

Li Huahun appears as a handsome youth despite being far older than he looks. He is usually dressed in immaculate white robes and is notably intolerant of dirt or blood on his clothing. 156 181 386

  • Black hair and white robes; when standing beside Su Yi, the two are often described as resembling brothers. 156
  • Usually cold-eyed and expressionless, with an imposing presence that belies his youthful appearance. 156 157
  • After regaining his memories and succumbing further to slaughter, he adopts blood-red robes and develops blood-colored marks between his brows. 386 590
  • At one point wears long crimson chains linking both hands, giving him the appearance of a blood-soaked prisoner. 674

Personality

Before recovering his memories, Li Huahun is aloof, blunt, proud, and violently intolerant of arrogance. His reputation as the Mad Fighter comes from his tendency to target arrogant opponents. 156 He treats most people with cold indifference, including his younger brother Ren Wokuang, but is unusually patient and protective toward Su Yi. 162

His pride is extreme. After Su Yi defeats him at the same cultivation realm, Li Huahun leaves with the stated intention of surpassing him in the future rather than accepting Su Yi's protection. 433

After his memories return, his personality becomes increasingly savage. Li Huahun comes to enjoy killing, struggles to restrain his instincts, and eventually accepts slaughter as the path he wishes to follow. 386 578 855 Despite this decline, he repeatedly demonstrates attachment to Su Yi and remains unwilling to turn against him outright. 590 815

Abilities & Skills

Primordial Chaos Killing Intent

Li Huahun was formed from accumulated killing intent and possesses a natural affinity for slaughter. Prison Tower Venerable warns that his continued growth could threaten both the yin and yang worlds. 575

  • Gains magical power from the living beings he kills. 578
  • His rapidly rising cultivation frightens other realm challengers, who regard him as a potential catastrophe. 598
  • Excessive killing worsens his loss of control and drives him toward demonic deviation. 575 590 855
  • His killing intent can become so intense that it is perceptible from tens of thousands of miles away. 590

Overwhelming Physical Combat

Li Huahun primarily fights with his body, speed, and brute force rather than named weapons.

  • Defeats Wei Niantian with a single punch and shatters the latter's mountain-sized demonic-energy palm head-on. 120
  • Fights Xiang Shun for two hours; neither side achieves a clear victory. 157
  • Kills the Night Yaksha Demon King by condensing heaven-and-earth spiritual energy into a gigantic blood sphere and blasting through the Demon King's chest. 162

  • Uses extraordinary speed to initially overwhelm Gonggong, though Gonggong later gains the advantage through superior power. 386

Heaven-Stealing Bone-Transforming Art

Li Huahun's sect-entry resources include the Heaven-Stealing Bone-Transforming Art. 66

  • Preserves the user's own identity while incorporating only favorable bloodline traits. 66
  • Has only one usable level and can only be attempted once. 66

Relationships

  • Silver-masked man — Li Huahun's father, an unfathomably powerful figure who ordered him to protect Su Yi. 156 403
  • Ren Wokuang — Younger brother. Ren Wokuang fears Li Huahun's temper but remains fiercely loyal to him. 126 157 508
  • Ren Wolang and Ren Wopiao — Brothers raised under the silver-masked man; both fear Li Huahun and help seek his rescue after his capture by Martial Dragon Hall. 394 509
  • Cheng Qingdie — Former lover whom Li Huahun killed. He later attempts to resurrect her in the Land of Reincarnation, but she rejects him and declares their bond severed. 575 576
  • Wu Qingyao — Ally in the Realm of the Lost. Li Huahun becomes frustrated by feeling inferior to her cultivation. 591
  • Xiang Shun — Rival whom Li Huahun battles to a draw; he ultimately acknowledges Xiang Shun's strength. 157
  • Ultimate Emperor — Authority Annihilation associate and rival. Li Huahun later challenges him for control of the organization. 815 860

Story Role / Major Arcs

Meeting the Demon Lord

Li Huahun appears while Su Yi is facing the Green Mountain Eighty-One Ghosts, kills the entire group with ease, and abandons his intended challenge of the Demon Lord after meeting Su Yi. He instead names Su Yi his friend and warns the Emperor Su Sect against harming him. 97 98 100

Battle with Divine Body Hall

Li Huahun kills the Night Yaksha Demon King, slaughters Holy Masters in Flame Demon City, and stays behind to delay Huangzong Wuming so Su Yi's group can escape. Huangzong Wuming ultimately shatters his Dao Fruit, leaving Li Huahun crippled for a time. 162 167 171 173
