Properties
Composition and Forms
- A form of Ling appearing during the Great Moon anomaly contains neither Yin, Yang, nor the Five Elements. Zhu Yu compares it to the Human Hope contained in gold, silver, jade, and stone, but finds it purer and free of fragmented information. 203
- Ling can carry other qualities or influences:
- Yinming Mansion Ling improves focus and mental clarity. 242
- Incense-tainted Ling appears mixed with fog following True Person Yin Underworld’s attempted usurpation of the Yi Spirit Ruins. 242
- Thunder-attribute Ling can accumulate in a structure and enter Zhu Yu’s body as electric light. 156
- Purple-black Ling light can be used as the manifestation and movement form of a Storm Thunder Naga. 215
- Pure-blooded Ling-level bloodlines are exceptionally rare; their erosion and rejection make transplantation highly dangerous. 163
Storage and Transmission
- Ling power can be infused into a beast bag to activate and refine it. 132
- Zhu Yu can gather ambient Ling with his Dao Foundation, but avoids allowing unfamiliar Ling to enter his own body directly. 203
- He can store Ling within his body and use it later to awaken Seeds of Human Desire or support techniques. 206
- Ling may be circulated through Zhu Yu’s Divine Seed before being transmitted into another person. This process caused Li Gousheng severe convulsions and pain. 205
Applications
Cultivation
- Dense Ling energy on Little Green Mountain can be used to open apertures through the Circulatory Aperture Map. 218
- Zhu Yu absorbs Ling while simultaneously tempering his body with blood circulation, using the stored energy to prepare for awakening another Seed of Human Desire. 206
- Thunder-attribute Ling strengthens Zhu Yu’s life force and causes his aura to rise while it enters his body. 156
Technique Medium
- Zhu Yu uses Ling as a medium for Soul Snatching, forcibly transmitting the Horizontal Mountain body-refining method and its medicinal formulas into Li Gousheng’s mind. 206
- He expends stored Ling to ensure that Soul Summoning can instantly subdue Xiao Hong during the day, when Ling is unavailable as a medium. The expenditure quickly dissipates and leaves Zhu Yu’s divine sense more than seventy percent depleted. 209
Formations and Artifacts
- Four beams of Ling light can form a barrier that seals Zhu Yu and Little Black inside. 144
- A beast bag can be activated through a strand of Ling power, allowing its user to store and retrieve items. 132

| 242 | Ling reappears in fog after the Yi Spirit Ruins anomaly. | Connects Yinming Mansion Ling with incense-tainted fog. 242 |
Limitations
- Ling gathered from an unfamiliar source may be unsafe to absorb directly; Zhu Yu redirects the anomalous Ling from the Great Moon into a Variegated Tiger rather than take it into himself. 203
- Passing Ling through a Divine Seed into another person can cause intense physical distress. 205
- Ling reserves dissipate after use, and relying on them to activate techniques can severely drain Zhu Yu’s divine sense. 209
- Ling-level bloodlines are difficult to transplant because of severe bloodline erosion and rejection. 163
