History

Purple Tenuity reincarnated into the human race as Bo Yikao, eldest son of Western Marquis Ji Chang. His birth was marked by purple imperial aura and celestial omens, identifying him as the master of the Purple Tenuity Star. 153

After Bo Yikao's body perished, his soul drifted toward Western Qi under the pull of his lingering obsession. Lingxiao awakened his consciousness and directed him to return to the Purple Tenuity Star, where he could restore his former foundation and cultivation. 265

With Lingxiao's assistance, Purple Tenuity refined his previous-life cultivation, reshaped his body, and reached the peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. He then severed his good corpse through the Crimson Sky Sword; that corpse took the form of Bo Yikao, whose purity and benevolence aligned with the sword's righteous nature. 266

Haotian, Yaochi, and Lingxiao subsequently invoked Heavenly Dao authority to enfeoff him as the North Pole Purple Tenuity Emperor. He received the Purple Tenuity Star and authority over the stars of heaven, celestial warp, and terrestrial weft. 267

Authority

Lord of Myriad Stars

Purple Tenuity governs the myriad stars on behalf of Heaven. His imperial office commands celestial movements and the order connecting heaven and earth. 267

• The Purple Tenuity Star serves as the center of his authority. During his investiture, its radiance eclipsed the Sun and Lunar Stars, while the other stars appeared to bow before it. 267
