Background / History
Liu Bai is a transmigrator who discovered a portal in his mind at the age of six. The portal led to the Battle Through the Heavens world, where he entered through a mid-air opening above a cliff and began navigating its dangers alone. His earliest known contact in that world was with Ma Qi and a merchant caravan. 1
During his early cultivation, Ma Qi provided him with Yellow-tier intermediate techniques, including Roaming Cloud Steps. Liu Bai trained diligently and, after one year, possessed level 16 soul power and fifth-stage Dou Qi. He then traveled to Heaven Dou City and gained admission to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy despite its closed enrollment period. 8
At the academy, Liu Bai rapidly established his reputation by defeating older students with far higher soul power using self-created soul skills. His clashes with Yu Tianheng developed into a recurring rivalry marked by mutual recognition, while Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling became close companions. 11 23 24
After joining the Jia Ma Imperial Family’s circle, Liu Bai received cultivation resources from Jia Xingtian, including the Red Spirit Flame Mantra and complementary Dou Techniques. He discovered that he could cultivate soul power alongside Dou Qi and began planning methods suitable for his companions. 21
Liu Bai later traveled through the Magical Beast Mountain Range, reunited with Ma Qi at Bitter Sea Town, and left him a storage ring of medicinal pills to support his future mercenary group. During this period, he met Xiao Yi Xian and began a lasting partnership with her. 36 38
His rise eventually expanded beyond individual cultivation. He unified forces in the Black-Corner Region, founded Blood Fire Hall, delegated its administration to trusted subordinates, and later established the faction in the Central Plains. 181 343 360
