Background / History

Blood Brow was once the Supreme Elder of Blood Cloud Cave, a branch of the Divine Blood Sect, and a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator. Unable to break through her cultivation bottleneck, she murdered a Divine Blood Sect genius to steal the sect-defending Corpse King Reincarnation Art. The copy she obtained contained only its first three levels, and her crime was exposed soon afterward. 275

Divine Blood Sect experts destroyed her body, captured her Nascent Soul, extracted her soul, and sealed it within a Soul Shackle made from soul-nurturing wood. She was imprisoned in a Bronze Corpse Coffin on an island in an underground lake, guarded by twenty-four indestructible bronze corpses. The soul-nurturing wood repeatedly restored her soul after torture, eventually allowing her to extend part of her soul power beyond the shackle. 275

After the Divine Blood Sect’s personnel mysteriously vanished, Blood Brow spent countless years attempting to escape. She sent jade slips and maps to lure cultivators to the prison, anticipating that greed for ancient techniques would bring someone capable of breaking her restraints. Song Wen’s thunder art damaged the wooden statue restraining her, enabling her release. 274 276

Immediately after being freed, she attempted to devour Song Wen’s soul. When this failed, she abandoned part of her soul, took control of a silver corpse, and escaped. She later occupied Wu Ren’s corpse puppet, refining it into a true third-tier Silver Corpse, before eventually possessing Yan Yiwen’s Profound Yin body. 274 377 666

Appearance

Blood Brow’s appearance changed with her vessel. Her freed soul first appeared as a transparent, beautiful female cultivator; her time inside Wu Ren’s corpse puppet gave her an eerie and grotesque appearance. 274 377

• Her soul form was a transparent female figure. 274
• While using Wu Ren’s corpse puppet, her attempted smile was described as ghastly and unnatural. 377
• During her escape from the Nine Palaces Sect, she wore a fitted black outfit beneath a loose aura-concealing cloak. 666
• Her possession of Yan Yiwen allowed her to pass publicly as “Elder Yan.” 666

Personality

Blood Brow is intensely obsessed with the Corpse King Reincarnation Art, Spirit Transformation, and ascending to the upper realm. Her failure to obtain the complete art in her first life defined her actions for tens of thousands of years; even after regaining a body, she was willing to risk her life for another chance at its inheritance. 275 668 795

She is calculating, patient, and adept at bargaining from a position of weakness. She concealed her intentions from Tai He, manipulated Jiang Chang into serving as a decoy, used temporary alliances with Song Wen and others, and repeatedly traded rare knowledge for protection, resources, or access to secret realms. 384 665 786 803

Her composure can break into open mania when confronted with the Divine Blood Sect inheritance she sought for so long. At the Corpse King Hall altar, she laughed wildly over finally reaching the inheritance she had once been denied. 795 796

Abilities & Skills

Soul Possession and Spiritual Sense

• Took control of a silver corpse after fleeing Song Wen. 274
• Later possessed Yan Yiwen’s Profound Yin body. 666
• Retained spiritual sense assessed as comparable to, or potentially above, Nascent Soul Middle Stage despite her early second-life Nascent Soul cultivation. 747
• Knows a rare soul-defense spell that forms a cyan spiritual-sense screen within her sea of consciousness. 776

Illusion Arts

Blood Brow’s primary combat specialty is creating convincing duplicates and false attacks.

• Can split into multiple indistinguishable forms; she created ten copies while escaping Blood Firmament. 751
• Uses blood mist, rain-like fire, and the Phantom Karma Heartflame to produce layered illusions. 756
• Her illusions can conceal her true body long enough to escape or set traps. 756 848

Soul-Breaking Awls

Blood Brow wields Soul-Breaking Awls as both direct weapons and formation tools.

• Can launch multiple awls in coordinated attacks from several directions. 756
• Used six awls to cut out an entire section of earth and harvest Withered Corpse Bamboo with its roots intact. 768
• The awls can carry corrosive black liquid that threatens defensive magic treasures. 756

Maha Blackwater is Blood Brow’s highly corrosive black liquid technique and defensive treasure.

• Can become a spear, shield, needles, or a protective coating around her body. 757 929
• Corrodes weapons, shields, spiritual power, and Song Wen’s blood-red tentacles on contact. 756 929
• Its defense can be penetrated partially by powerful lightning arts, leaving Blood Brow vulnerable to the lightning’s direct effects. 850
• The refinement method was stored in her storage ring and seized by Song Wen after her capture. 930

Formations and Ancient Techniques

As a former Blood Cloud Cave Supreme Elder, Blood Brow possesses extensive knowledge of ancient Divine Blood Sect arts and sites.

• Activated the Nether God Temple’s blood-colored formation with a formation disk, trapping and severely injuring the Nether Fox. 380

• Activated the Corpse King Hall altar and revealed the cultivation method of the Corpse King Reincarnation Art. 796
• Provided information on the Divine Blood Hall, Shadow Soul Hall, Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, and the Ghost Mist Domain. 667 798 803

Escape and Lightning Techniques

Blood Brow has several methods for surviving stronger opponents.

• Uses the Blood Escape Technique, at the cost of essence blood, to flee across great distances. 755
• Carries and uses Minor Teleportation Talismans. 928
• Can employ lightning barriers against the Azure Netherworld Profound Fire. 753
• Her personal lightning talent is mediocre and insufficient to break especially powerful restrictions or threaten top opponents alone. 753 756

• Tai He — Temporary patron and jailer. Tai He implanted a Soul-Locking Curse, provided resources, and intended to use her Yin essence; Blood Brow ultimately betrayed him and joined Song Wen in capturing his Nascent Soul. 384 665 746
• Yan Yiwen — Profound Yin-bodied cultivator whose body Blood Brow possessed under her agreement with Tai He. 666 668
• Ghost Suanni — Ally within the Mysterious Yin Sect who defended her against the six sects and later treated her as a valued associate. 752 838
• Blood Firmament — Hostile fellow explorer who attempted to kill her; Blood Brow and Song Wen defeated him through coordinated illusion, lightning, and corpse-path attacks. 751 756 758
• Jiang Chang — Nine Palaces Sect cultivator whom she forcibly transformed into a decoy to evade Tai He’s surveillance. 665
• Divine Blood Sect — The sect whose inheritance she coveted and whose experts destroyed her first body, sealed her soul, and imprisoned her. 275

Story Role / Major Arcs

Escape from Blood Cloud Cave’s Prison

Blood Brow lured cultivators toward her underground prison through planted jade slips. Song Wen’s thunder art broke the restraint that held her, but her attempted soul-devouring attack failed, forcing her to flee in a silver corpse. 274 276

Nether God Temple

While inhabiting Wu Ren’s third-tier Silver Corpse, Blood Brow formed a temporary agreement with Song Wen to capture the Nether Fox: Song Wen would receive its Hidden Soul Jade brow bone, while Blood Brow would claim its corpse. She activated an ancient formation and nearly killed the fox before Song Wen undermined her plan with lightning arts. 377 380

Possession of Yan Yiwen and Betrayal of Tai He

Blood Brow accepted Tai He’s Soul-Locking Curse in exchange for access to Yan Yiwen’s Profound Yin body, ancient resources, and a route toward the Bronze Key Coffin. She later used Jiang Chang as a decoy, escaped the Nine Palaces Sect, and exposed herself to Song Wen. 384 665 666

Divine Blood Hall Expedition

Alliance Against Tai He and Blood Firmament

Blood Brow and Song Wen ambushed Tai He to settle their shared grievance, with Blood Brow taking his Nascent Soul for a soul search. Later, she and Song Wen combined her illusions, Maha Blackwater, and Soul-Breaking Awls with Song Wen’s lightning arts to defeat Blood Firmament. 746 756 758

Mysterious Yin Sect and Final Capture

After joining the Mysterious Yin Sect, Blood Brow advanced to Nascent Soul Middle Stage and became a target of cultivators seeking information about the Fallen Immortal Blood. When Song Wen attacked the sect, she attempted to escape through illusions, teleportation talismans, Blood Escape, and Maha Blackwater. Song Wen cornered her, destroyed her body, captured her soul, and seized her storage ring. 838 927 929 930
