Background / History
Bai Yixin arrived in a dangerous mountain range after rejuvenation, appearing as a ragged six-year-old while retaining memories from a prior life. For his first month there, gathering food meant life-or-death struggles against exotic beasts and fierce birds. His private game-like panel identified his defining talent as the Dao of Grinding, which exponentially increases his efficiency the longer he remains in a sustained “grinding” state. 2
After leaving the mountains, he reached Stone Village and became closely connected to its inhabitants, especially Shi Hao, whom he calls Little One. He later accepted the Willow Deity’s guidance, studied the Original True Interpretation, and rebuilt his Blood-Moving Realm from its fundamentals. 3 22 23
His cultivation quickly developed along two complementary paths: the Qi Refining system represented by the Wind and Rain Summoning Art and Nine-Turn Heavenly Art, and the Perfect World cultivation system of Blood Moving, Cave Heavens, Spirit Transformation, and beyond. He deliberately fused his ten Cave Heavens into a Divine Ring and nurtured his Golden Core within the resulting Physical Heavenly Cave. 25 80 93
Bai Yixin later publicly declared himself a successor of the Supreme Hall. Stone Village generally came to believe he was an “Immortal Reincarnation,” as neither they nor the Willow Deity could identify the source of his system-based cultivation. 100 148
Appearance
Bai Yixin is described as rapidly maturing from a child into an exceptionally refined youth with an otherworldly, immortal-like bearing. 22 38
- Fair, jade-like skin and long ink-black hair. 38
- Usually wears simple white robes; later appears in red robes during battle. 38 142
- Around age nine or ten, he was already approximately 1.7 meters tall. 38
- His aura can shift from sunny and approachable to overwhelmingly divine and martial. 80 142
- After deep meditation, he is surrounded by fragrant white mist and appears ethereal and untainted by worldly dust. 146
Personality
Bai Yixin is intensely diligent, pragmatic, and growth-oriented. He treats cultivation as a long-term process of accumulation, believing sustained effort can surpass innate talent. His Dao of Grinding reflects this outlook: he trains continuously, uses battle as tempering, and regularly suppresses his own breakthroughs to strengthen his foundation. 19 130 275
He is calculating rather than recklessly aggressive. He evaluates risk against reward, avoids traps when gains are insufficient, infiltrates treasure sites instead of fighting through every defense, and leaves behind lesser valuables after taking what he needs. 156 248 249
His conduct can be ruthless toward enemies and opportunistic toward rivals. He collects corpses and spoils, extorts resources, and readily kills opponents who persist in attacking him. 50 85 263 However, he is affectionate toward Stone Village, gives its residents useful medicinal liquid, cooks for its children, and consistently protects Shi Hao and Shi Qingfeng. 22 93 146
Bai Yixin openly acknowledges that he is not a saint. He accepts his own likes, dislikes, vanity, curiosity, and occasional foolish impulses rather than hiding behind a false moral image. 146
