Background

Little One, whose original name was Shi Hao, was born into the prestigious Shi Clan. His father, Shi Ziling, was the Eleventh Brother of the clan’s generation, a powerful cultivator respected for his strength. His mother was a devoted and caring woman. Shortly after Shi Hao’s birth, a family crisis struck: Shi Ziling’s father, the Fifteenth Master, was severely injured and went missing on the Hundred Clans Battlefield after encountering an adult Pixiu. Determined to rescue his father, Shi Ziling set out for the dangerous battlefield, leaving his infant son in the care of the clan 22. The prince’s sister-in-law, who had a son of her own named Shi Yi—a child born with innate double pupils—was entrusted with looking after the baby 22.

During Shi Ziling’s absence, the sister-in-law discovered that Shi Hao possessed a Supreme Bone, a rare and immensely powerful treasure that could grant its bearer unparalleled cultivation potential and status. Driven by ambition and a desire to benefit her own son, she conspired to steal the bone. Months later, she took both Shi Hao and Shi Yi to an underground palace and performed a grafting ritual, transferring Shi Hao’s Supreme Bone into Shi Yi’s body 22. The procedure left Shi Hao severely weakened, his radiant vitality almost extinguished. The clan, recognizing Shi Yi’s double pupils and now the Supreme Bone, prioritized him over Shi Hao, viewing the stolen bone as a means to elevate the clan. The other children and relatives who once visited Shi Hao gradually stopped coming, leaving him isolated and declining 23.

When Shi Ziling finally returned, he discovered his son’s condition and the truth of the theft. Enraged, he demanded justice, but the clan elders—including Shi Li and the ancestors—sided with Shi Yi, unwilling to give up the grafted Supreme Bone. A violent confrontation erupted. Shi Ziling fought ferociously, defeating several clan elders and even injuring an ancestor, but he was ultimately suppressed by the combined power of the four ancestors 24 25. Rather than kill him, the clan exiled Shi Ziling and his wife, along with the weakened infant Shi Hao, to the desolate frontier 25. In exile, Shi Ziling refused to leave his son behind and, after enduring countless hardships, the family came upon a remote, blessed land called Stone Village 25.

Upon entering Stone Village, Shi Ziling and his wife were immediately struck by the extraordinary aura of a charred willow tree at the village’s entrance, recognizing it as a being of immense power. However, the rest of the village appeared humble and impoverished, disappointing them 25. Realizing that Stone Village could offer their son a safe haven, they made the difficult decision to leave Shi Hao there, hoping the mysterious willow tree would watch over him. They also arranged for a body double, another child named Shi Hao, to take their son’s place in the clan’s records, in order to buy time and hide the real Shi Hao’s survival 25 34. Little One—as the villagers affectionately called him—was then adopted by the people of Stone Village, who treated him as one of their own. The village chief and elders showered him with affection, and the women of the village would wipe away his tears and tell him, “Little One, this is your home. Regardless of whether you know your origins, we are all your kin” 25. The charred willow tree, later revealed to be the Willow Deity, also took an interest in him, guiding his earliest steps on the path of cultivation and helping him uncover the truth of his past through visions 21 25. Thus, Little One grew up in Stone Village, unaware of his noble origins but surrounded by a loving community that became his new family.

From infancy, Little One displayed exceptional innate strength. At only a little over one year old, he joined older children’s morning exercises despite having only recently learned to walk, and could use rudimentary bone runes to lift a blue stone taller than himself 1 2. By three and a half, he could lift a thousand-jin bronze cauldron through pure physical force, astonishing Stone Village’s adults and earning comparisons to the cubs of pure-blooded Primordial Remnants 5. His early body-tempering included medicinal baths and a special medicinal paste, which temporarily made him hyperactive and destructive but further improved his physique and speed 4.

The Willow Deity further revealed that Shi Hao’s lost Supreme Bone could regenerate. Its eventual rebirth would amount to nirvana upon his original foundation, producing runes more profound and fundamentally different from those of the stolen bone 25.

Physical Description

Little One undergoes a profound physical metamorphosis through his cultivation and the transformative processes he endures. Following his immersion in the ancient black cauldron filled with golden liquid containing a divine fragment, his body becomes translucent and radiates a crystalline luster, with his pores spraying divine radiance 16. The process strips away a layer of charred, blackened skin to reveal a small, white, and crystalline body that shimmers with a precious glow 16. After re-cultivating the Blood-Moving Realm, his form again appears translucent, with light rain flying off him as he undergoes continuous transformation; his essence blood flows like a long river, and his entire body becomes crystalline and holy 27. His physical frame is extraordinarily powerful—by the time he reaches the peak of the Blood-Moving Realm, he possesses a divine force of one hundred and eight thousand jin in a single arm, and his body has been tempered through storms, cliff falls, and battles with massive beasts, leaving him bruised but never broken 27 29. During later breakthroughs, his eyes can emit beams of dark light extending over a dozen yards, and a mystical “volcano” appears beneath his feet, spewing “magma” into his soles 56.

• Skin Condition: Initially, after the cauldron process, his skin is completely blackened like charcoal, but once the burnt layer peels away, it reveals a fair, white, and crystalline complexion that gives off a precious radiance 16. Over time, his skin retains a crystalline luster and can glow with runic light when he cultivates 27 30.
• Height Changes: While Little One’s own height is not explicitly quantified, his companion Shi Lin becomes notably fairer and taller after the same transformation 16. Little One’s physical development is similarly accelerated, as he leaps over twenty meters high and can easily lift tripods weighing tens of thousands of jin, indicating significant growth in stature and limb strength 16 26.
• Notable Features: He has large, rolling eyes that are described as lively, even when his face is covered in soot 16. After the cauldron transformation, he has long, soft black hair draped over his shoulders, a fair crystalline body, and bright, spirited eyes 16. His body is covered in dense runes during cultivation, and his pores can become wide open, allowing spiritual essence to pour in and out 16 30. After breaking through to higher cultivation realms, his pupils can momentarily shoot dark light, and his feet can manifest a volcano-like crater brimming with molten energy 56. His overall physique is compact but immensely powerful, capable of enduring brutal natural disasters and violent beast attacks without fracturing bones or drawing blood 27.
• Transformations: Little One can alter his facial features and skeletal appearance through the Seventy-Two Transformations inherited from Furball. At the Heaven Mending Pavilion, he adopts a round-faced, chubby appearance that conceals his identity 52 59.

Personality and Traits

• Curiosity and Inquisitiveness: Little One constantly seeks to understand the world around him, asking about figures like the Human Emperor’s youngest daughter and the children of Primordial Remnants 59 and venturing into the dangerous territory of the Heaven Mending Pavilion’s Sacrificial Spirit despite the demonic force there 62.
• Courage and Protectiveness: He does not hesitate to investigate when he sees Qingfeng injured 59, saves a Heaven Mending Pavilion senior brother from a humanoid silver creature 69, and faces an ancient supernatural entity with a sword through its head without showing fear 64.
• Cunning and Manipulativeness: He demonstrates a knack for instigating conflict without being caught, such as when he provokes a fight between new disciples and the Genius Camp over the whereabouts of the “Troublemaker Kid” 62, and he devises a plan with Shi Lin to create a beast tide to distract the Black Tiger guarding the Black Fiend Lotus 56.
• Exceptional Strength and Determination: His physical power allows him to break records in the Void God Realm—he shatters a bluestone passageway to obtain a Treasure Bone 43 and defeats 28 consecutive matches at the Ancient Holy Academy, alarming the Genius Camp 65. He later defeats the Nine-Headed Golden Lion and kills a powerful silver Primordial Remnant 70 74.
• Mischievous and Troublemaking Nature: He is widely known as the “Troublemaker Kid” for his actions, such as destroying the trial grounds in the eighth zone, causing the trial to fail for nearly everyone except the last zone 54, and his antics eventually lead to him being expelled from the Void God Realm 49. He continues to provoke Huo Ling’er, including teasing the Fire Kingdom princess over her appearance 72.
• Confidence and Fearlessness: He shows no hesitation in challenging Shi Yi’s legendary records, announcing his intent publicly 47, and he agrees to enter the Hundred-Broken Mountain despite the known dangers, maintaining a confident and mischievous demeanor 64. He also refuses to submit when several powerful Primordial Remnants attempt to make him a battle-servant or war-pet 72.
• Naivety and Greed: Upon entering the Void God Realm for the first time, he does not understand its rules and tries to dig out all the Treasure Bones from the bluestone passageway, becoming disappointed when only one remains and the rest disappear 43. He is similarly disappointed when the supposedly divine wolf cub does not yield an inheritance of runes 75.
• Adaptability and Quick Learning: Little One adapts swiftly to new environments, as seen when he enters the Heaven Mending Pavilion and immediately makes friends and causes mischief 59, and he capably navigates the dangerous Second Battlefield by using stealth and evasion to avoid powerful beasts 55. In the small world, he rapidly refines the Ziyun Heart and reaches the Seventh Heavenly Cave 71.
• Ruthlessness Toward Enemies: Although affectionate toward companions and animals he accepts, Little One is decisive against hostile foes. He kills numerous Rain Clan geniuses after learning of their connection to the persecution of his parents and openly identifies himself as the child whose Supreme Bone was stolen 77.
• Sharp-Tongued Combatant: Little One can exploit an opponent’s emotions during battle. He provokes Huo Ling’er into fury with personal remarks 72, and similarly destabilizes a Rain Clan genius woman’s defensive rune technique by mocking her physique before immediately launching a lightning assault 78.

Abilities and Techniques

Original True Interpretation

The Original True Interpretation is a profound cultivation text that delves into the origins of runes, emphasizing the foundational principles of cultivation over mere technique. Both Little One and Shi Lin study it in the Great Wilderness, vomiting blood due to its extreme profundity 27. Little One gains deep insights that lead him to re-cultivate the Blood-Moving Realm from the ground up, causing his body to glow continuously for days afterward 27.

  • Breaks the Initial Ground speed record and inadvertently records his name as “Loves Drinking Beast Milk” 44.

Bone Treasures and Battle Artifacts

Little One accumulates powerful bone treasures during his journeys and uses them against opponents whose cultivation and inherited abilities rival his own.

Key Events

1. The Blood Battle for Little One’s Supreme Bone
   Shi Ziling returned to the clan to find his youngest son, Little One, severely weakened after his Supreme Bone had been stolen and grafted into Shi Yi. Enraged, Shi Ziling confronted the clan leadership, but they sided with Shi Yi, the Double Pupil bearer, seeing him as the greater asset. A fierce battle erupted; Shi Ziling fought against multiple Clan Elders and even injured an ancestor with his extraordinary power, yet he could not retrieve the bone or obtain justice. The conflict culminated in Shi Yi himself joining the fight. Shi Ziling, his wife, and the weakened Little One were subsequently exiled, setting the foundation for the lifelong enmity between Shi Yi and Little One. 24 25

2. Little One Enters the Void God Realm and Opens Four Heavenly Caves
   After consuming the massive Sacrificial Spirit with the villagers of Stone Village, Little One broke through to the Heavenly Cave Realm, opening three Heavenly Caves—only slightly behind Shi Lin. Half a year later, with the guidance of the Willow Deity, he and Shi Lin entered the Void God Realm, a spiritual world constructed by ancient gods meant for tempering and enlightenment. Little One’s entry marked the beginning of his meteoric rise in that realm, as he would soon demonstrate extraordinary physical strength and a fearless, cunning nature. 42

3. Little One’s First Feat in the Void God Realm: Breaking the Bluestone Passage
   Shortly after arriving in the Void God Realm, Little One, misunderstanding the purpose of a bluestone passageway, attempted to dig out Treasure Bones from it. Using his peak Blood-Moving Realm physical strength, he successfully broke the bluestone, obtaining one Treasure Bone—a feat that amazed onlookers who had previously mocked him. This act broke an unspoken limit in the realm, showcasing his raw power and naivety, and foreshadowing his pattern of shattering established norms. 43

4. The Greatest Plunderer: Little One Extorts the Four Great Clans
   Little One used a crimson feather fan to capture over five hundred experts from four major clans in the Initial Ground of the Void God Realm. He treated them as commodities, extorting precious artifacts and techniques from the clans in exchange for their release. He then set a record for “Greatest Plunderer” and added “Heavenly Martial, Open and Aboveboard” to the stone tablet, causing an uproar. Experts from higher-level Ethereal Heavenly Caves arrived to witness the spectacle, and the four clans suffered both loss of personnel and humiliation. This event cemented Little One’s reputation as a troublemaker and demonstrated his unmatched audacity. 46

5. Little One Declares Intent to Break Shi Yi’s Records
   After his extortion spree, Little One announced his plan to break Shi Yi’s records in the Void God Realm, starting with the first one. News of his ambition spread like wildfire, stirring senior masters and clan leaders in various precious lands and high-level Heavenly Caves. Many were moved to come and witness whether the audacious child could actually achieve it, as breaking even a single record of the legendary Double Pupil would ensure worldwide fame. This declaration was far more sensational than his earlier exploits and set the stage for a pivotal confrontation. 47

6. Little One Breaks Shi Yi’s Height-Leaping Record
   Little One entered the Void God Realm’s Initial Ground and, in front of a massive crowd from ancient kingdoms and powerful clans, successfully broke Shi Yi’s record by leaping to an unprecedented height using only his physical strength. The feat caused a massive uproar, with onlookers expressing awe and disbelief. Even in imperial cities, those who controlled the fate of ancient kingdoms were alerted. This event established Little One as a true prodigy capable of challenging the most revered benchmarks. 48

7. Little One Expelled from Void God Realm for Destruction
   After breaking the record, Little One was expelled from the Void God Realm for destroying its passages and the record stele. His antics caused widespread amusement, as no one had ever been kicked out for such chaotic behavior. He returned to Stone Village, where the Willow Deity advised him, and he decided to leave with Shi Lin and Qingfeng to explore the world. This expulsion marked the end of his first major rampage in the Void God Realm and the beginning of his journey toward the Heaven Mending Pavilion. 49

8. Journey Through the Great Wilderness and Arrival at the Stone Kingdom
   Little One, Shi Lin, and Qingfeng embarked on a journey of three hundred thousand miles through the Great Wilderness. They subdued fierce beasts as mounts, explored forbidden lands, and faced numerous dangers.

News of Little One’s impending appearance drew attention from various powerful factions, who sent forces to find him. 50

9. News of Shi Yi’s Possible Arrival at Heaven Mending Pavilion
   During their travels, Little One learned that Shi Yi might also be coming to the Heaven Mending Pavilion, intending to enter the Holy Academy. This news caused a sensation in both the ancient kingdoms and the Void God Realm, as the Double Pupil’s ambition to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with ancient sages was explosive. The prospect of the two prodigies crossing paths heightened the tension and expectations surrounding the academy’s trials. 51

10. Arrival at Heaven Mending Pavilion and the Beginning of Trials
    The group arrived at the Heaven Mending Pavilion, greeted by lush landscapes and dense spiritual energy. Tens of thousands gathered for the trials to select new disciples. Qingfeng used a jade token to enter, while Shi Yi arrived in grand fashion on a Primordial Remnant, causing a sensation. Little One used the Seventy-Two Transformations to alter his appearance for safety. The trials began, dividing youths into eight groups to pass through runic zones in the Primitive Battlefield. 52 53

11. Little One’s Trial Chaos: Digging Rune Bones and Destroying the Eighth Zone
    In the eighth zone of the trial, Little One used a brute-force approach to break formation zones and successfully dug up eighteen Rune Bones before escaping quickly. His actions caused the trial grounds to be destroyed, leading to nearly ten thousand candidates passing—an unprecedented number—while the elders of Heaven Mending Pavilion became increasingly frustrated and desperate. Shi Lin, following Little One, planned to take advantage of the chaos. This event highlighted Little One’s cunning and his hallmark of causing disruption wherever he went. 54

12. Little One Encounters the Black Tiger and the Second Battlefield
    Little One entered the Second Battlefield of the trials, where he encountered fierce beasts including an Ancient Crocodile and a massive Black Tiger. He discovered a stele with Heaven Mending Stones and learned that possessing two stones passes the trial, while ten or more makes one a key disciple. Near the Black Tiger’s lair, he found a Black Fiend Lotus, a precious herb to help him break through a cultivation bottleneck. He also faced ambushes from other geniuses seeking his stones, showcasing his strength and adaptability in a survival-of-the-fittest environment. 55

13. Little One Obtains the Black Fiend Lotus and Opens the Sixth Heavenly Cave
    Working with Shi Lin, Little One provoked multiple beast kings into forming a beast tide, drawing away the Black Tiger guarding the Black Fiend Lotus.

Soon afterward, he ambushed the formidable Xiao Tian and knocked him unconscious with a single blow. 56

14. Conflict Between New Disciples and Genius Camp
    Zhou Yuhao, a Genius Camp disciple, was severely beaten by new disciples who believed he knew the whereabouts of the “Troublemaker Kid” (Shi Lin). The fight escalated into a larger conflict, forcing an elder to intervene by absorbing the runic storm with a Golden Gourd and threatening those who instigated the fight with three years of facing the wall. Little One, observing, had subtly manipulated the situation without being caught, further demonstrating his cunning and the growing tensions within the Heaven Mending Pavilion. 62

15. Little One and Shi Lin Enter the Ancient Holy Academy
    Little One caused a sensation at the Ancient Holy Academy by defeating twenty-eight disciples in a row, including Yan Xin, Piaoxue, and Zhou Yuhao, earning respect and loot. Shi Lin entered via the Bronze Path using the Qilin Precious Technique and the Indestructible Scripture of the Heavenly Horned Ant. Shi Yi, who had been previously chosen, was left outside and expressed unwillingness and astonishment. This event marked the culmination of Little One’s rise within the academy, surpassing his rival in direct competition and signaling the beginning of a new phase of rivalry. 65

16. Expedition into the Small World and Battle with the Silver Creature
    Little One entered a spiritually dense small world with Heaven Mending Pavilion disciples, defeated a Tree Clan expert and Fire Cloud Sparrow, and saved a senior brother from a humanoid silver Primordial Remnant 69. Using the Suanni Bone Mirror and Golden Bone Shears, he fought the silver creature to the death, though his crimson feather fan was destroyed in the battle 70.

17. Ziyun Heart Refinement and Seventh Heavenly Cave Breakthrough
    After defeating the silver creature, Little One traded its body for the Ziyun Heart, a rare Primordial Remnant medicine. He fled pursuers seeking to capture the notorious Troublemaker Kid, refined the medicine in seclusion, and successfully opened his Seventh Heavenly Cave. This advancement greatly increased his strength and drew the attention of Huo Ling’er and various non-human geniuses. 71

18. Conflict at the Divine Cave and Defeat of the Nine-Headed Golden Lion
    Little One joined Huo Ling’er’s party to seek treasure in the Divine Cave, mainly intending to confront the Nine-Headed Golden Lion that had sought to make him a battle-servant 71. He fought the lion, Silver Blood Giant, and Feather King without yielding, later defeating the Nine-Headed Lion and forcing it to flee into the Divine Cave 72 74.

19. The Golden Egg Hatches into a Wolf Cub
    Following the Divine Cave expedition, Little One seized a golden egg discovered by the injured survivors and initially intended to eat it. The egg hatched into a gray, horned wolf cub described as a young god. Little One attempted to nourish it with divine power and inspect its runes for an inheritance, but was left disappointed when no such divine technique could be found 74 75.

20. Little One Captures the Nine-Headed Lion and Hunts the Rain Clan
    Little One later subdued the Nine-Headed Golden Lion as his mount and continued exploring the small world with the wolf cub 76. When the Rain Clan attempted to ambush him, he and the lion broke through rune formations, killed numerous Rain Clan geniuses, and confronted one of the clan’s Twin Prodigies.
