Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Great Perfection of Void Shattering | 250 | His realm when Gu Yuan first observes him aboard a Profound Light Sect flying vessel; he has just comprehended the Ancient Qi Refining Formula through an incense burner. 250 |
| Nine Tribulations / Law of Spirit | 289 | After half a year in the Old Sea, he condenses a thread of Law power—the Law of Spirit—after previously nearing the Nine Tribulations realm. 289 |
| Nine Tribulations, Second Level | 332 | His cultivation has advanced by the time he returns to the Profound Light Sect and registers for true-disciple selection. 332 |
| Nine Tribulations, Sixth Level | 335 | His rapid progress is noted as having occurred without the influence of heavenly tribulations. 335 |
| Nine Tribulations, Fifth Stage | 347 | Chen Xian's talent-copying panel identifies him at the fifth stage; this conflicts with the earlier sixth-level report. 347 |
Personality
Mo Tianxing is cautious around unfamiliar powers and worlds, but he is not passive. He verifies Zhang Bo's identity before accepting the damaged vessel, complies with Eternal Origin Continent's registration rules, and avoids needlessly confronting stronger guards aboard the Great Ark. 297 315 328
He is deeply committed to spreading Qi Refining Formula techniques. Even after becoming a true disciple, his central concern is how to make the formula available freely rather than restricting it behind sect exchange requirements. He uses social maneuvering and political alliances to turn that goal into reality. 319 330 333 334
His experiences in the Old Sea also make him persistent and adaptable. When trapped in a repeating cycle, he repeatedly revisits the Great Ark, gathers concealment tools, investigates its upper floors, and attempts to identify the cause rather than accepting the loop. 314 316 317

Story Role / Major Arcs
Old Sea and Blood Pearl World
Mo Tianxing begins as a Great Perfection Void Shattering inner disciple traveling the Old Sea aboard a Profound Light Sect vessel. Using his ancient incense burner, he comprehends and cultivates the Ancient Qi Refining Formula. 250 251
After entering the Blood Pearl World, he loses his memories and comes to believe that he is a divine manifestation sent to spread the Dharma. He defeats a local deity, gains worshippers, and preaches the Qi Refining Formula across the world. 258 259 265
A clash with someone claiming to be his junior brother restores his memories. Realizing the danger of returning to his sect after killing a fellow disciple, he retains the identity of a divine messenger and continues spreading the formula until he can leave the world. 273
Commander of the Profound Light Sect Vessel
The Blood Pearl World expedition leaves more than ninety percent of the group dead. As the highest-cultivated survivor, Mo Tianxing becomes commander of the flying vessel and distributes the Old Sea Qi Refining Formula among the remaining disciples. 275
He subsequently trades the Ancient Qi Refining Formula to Star Alliance supervisor Su Wei for one million Star Alliance points. 276
His growing strength and repeated disasters make the surviving disciples reluctant to accompany him into new worlds, giving him an ominous reputation despite their lack of evidence that he caused the deaths. 289 311
Great Ark Cycle
After being deceived into paying an exorbitant bill aboard the Great Ark, Mo Tianxing discovers that his voyage has entered a repeating cycle. He repeatedly boards the vessel, searches its upper levels, investigates the artifact spirit Wu Ling, and attempts to break the loop. 312 314 315 316
The cycle eventually ends after he refuses to board the Great Ark again, although its exact cause remains unresolved. 327
Ordinary World and Eternal Origin Continent
Mo Tianxing enters an ordinary world by falling from the sky, then remains to investigate its anomalies and promote the Innate Qi Refining Formula. He meets the local emperor but makes clear that he seeks neither the empire nor its backers—only the widespread circulation of cultivation techniques. 317 319
He later arrives at Eternal Origin Continent, where he leads his group through the continent's tightly controlled registration procedures. His colleagues become attached to him during his stay and give him an emotional farewell when he departs. 297 308
Return to the Profound Light Sect
Upon returning to the Profound Light Sect, Mo Tianxing becomes a true disciple candidate and completes the assessment second among five participants. 332 333
To solve the problem of spreading the Qi Refining Formula inside the sect, he deliberately offers an ancient treasure to Zhao Changfeng. The exchange gains him the protection of the vice sect master's son and places the Primordial Qi Refining Formula in Zhao Ling's hands, helping the formula spread through the sect hierarchy. 333 334
Thousand Mountains Sect
Mo Tianxing and Su Ning are selected by Thousand Mountains Sect envoy Zhang Chuan after both generate rainbow-colored light in the assessment pillar. 336
At the Thousand Mountains Sect, Mo Tianxing gains an unnamed divine ability from the Enlightenment Stele, participates in the Star Alliance exchange, and becomes involved in Chen Xian's talent-copying scheme. 339 346 347
He makes a strong impression during the Thousand Mountains Sect Dao Child selection but finishes eighth, while Su Ning wins the title. Mo Tianxing is nevertheless selected among the ten true disciples sent to the Cosmic Prodigy Tournament. 352

Trivia
- Mo Tianxing's name initially strikes Gu Yuan as sounding like a protagonist's name. 250
- His fellow disciples associate him with extraordinarily bad luck after successive expeditions end in heavy casualties. 289 311
- He briefly embraces the Great Ark's entertainment culture enthusiastically before being charged for his stay. 312
- His rainbow-grade aptitude result surprises Thousand Mountains Sect envoy Zhang Chuan, who had already seen Su Ning produce the same result. 336
