Background

Bai Ye transmigrated into the post-Cataclysm wasteland shortly before the events in Gray Soil Town. Discovering Time Stop, he initially mistook himself for an invincible “god of the new era” and confronted Tan Jie's protection-collection party. Because he had already squandered most of his daily minute testing the power, he was unable to back up his threats; the East District dismissed him as mentally contaminated and demoted him to slavery. 1 2

Before his enslavement, Bai Ye was known as a lone wasteland hunter. To conceal both his humiliation and his ability, he claimed that poisonous mushrooms had caused his earlier delusions. 2

Seeing the East and West Districts contesting the taboo revolver Breath of Bones, Bai Ye recognized a route out of slavery. He volunteered for Fate Roulette, deliberately stalled until his daily Time Stop became available, and used the frozen minute to remove one bullet from the revolver before taking a six-bullet turn. 2 3 4

After leaving Gray Soil Town, Bai Ye becomes entangled in the conflicts surrounding Black Mountain, Shelter 189, Apocalypse Corporation, the Pangu Project, and the Ten Kings. His apparent connection to the Civilized Era leads the Steel Brotherhood to identify him as a possible Pangu Project Executor, a deduction that is substantially correct despite their incomplete understanding of his origins. 29 116

Bai Ye later builds public identities around the Black King, Cunning Rabbit, White Lord, and Mr. Bai while concealing that several of these identities are facets of himself. His rise through Apocalypse politics, his acquisition of the Pangu USB Drive, and the construction of his Divine Kingdom turn him from a resourceful wastelander into one of the era's most feared independent powers. 209 262 312 349 619 913

Appearance

Bai Ye is a tall, lean young man whose initially malnourished frame becomes visibly more defined after absorbing vitality from mutated beasts. 6 11

• Short, messy black hair that hangs over his brow and partly conceals his eyes. 6
• Sharp, untamed black eyes described as wolf-like. 6
• High nose bridge marked by an unhealed, blood-crusted scrape. 6
• Pale skin from malnutrition before his physical recovery. 6
• Often wears ragged clothing, though his youth and vigor remain noticeable after he cleans himself up. 8
• Later commonly appears in tailored dark or purple suits, black-and-gold trench coats, and with a cigar, especially when acting as Lord Bai or the Black King. 173 232 271
• During Beast Transformation, his hair turns pure white, his eyes become ruby-red, and crimson Blood Qi covers his body. 271
• His Black King identity is usually concealed by the Black Nether Ghost Mask, which suppresses visible Blood Qi and obscures his appearance. 156 209
• Following the Calamity Eye crisis, he loses sight in his left eye; it becomes dim and unfocused in its ordinary state, though it can later manifest scarlet light and black runes when he exerts divine power. 927 990

Personality

Bai Ye is calculating, theatrical, and intensely self-assured. He frequently provokes others, demands titles such as “Deputy Commander Bai,” and treats Tan Jie and King Snake with open contempt after acquiring Breath of Bones. 5 8 He is also a habitual liar, readily inventing explanations—such as his poisonous-mushroom story—when secrecy serves him. 2

His fixation on time shapes both his strategy and temper. He regards even seconds as precious, reacts violently to perceived time-wasting, and seeks power that can preserve or extend his life, including the Pangu USB Drive's knowledge of supernatural evolution and life engineering. 13 29

Despite his selfishness and ruthlessness, Bai Ye is not indifferent to ordinary wastelanders. He refuses Li You's proposal to seize Gray Soil Town at the cost of its residents, protects Li You during the gray-sparrow attack, and recognizes that powerful factions repeatedly force ordinary people to bear the consequences of their conflicts. 14 20 26

Bai Ye habitually reframes cowardice, opportunism, and deception as the natural conduct of a “god.” He often takes credit for coincidences, presents borrowed knowledge as his own insight, and uses grandiose titles to unsettle or recruit opponents. 191 246 408 527

His growing strength makes him increasingly authoritarian and brutal toward enemies, traitors, and those who waste his time. He can demand submission, kill without hesitation, and use terror to force powerful institutions into serving his objectives. 210 513 823

Nevertheless, his cruelty is often coupled with practical restraint. He preserves people and resources useful to rebuilding Dawn City, values capable followers, and repeatedly acts to prevent broader catastrophes even when he disguises those motives behind selfish rhetoric. 408 513 825

He also rejects solutions that preserve humanity only through illusion or surrender. When Little Nine attempts to confine him within the Mechanical Kingdom's Virtual World, Bai Ye refuses its simulated utopia because he values freedom and a real future over a painless but false existence. 376

Abilities & Skills

Time Stop

Bai Ye can freeze time using the surplus minute created by his temporal desynchronization with the current world. He can conserve unused time across days. 2 8

• During stopped time, Bai Ye can move freely and manipulate objects he is touching. 17
• He used the ability to remove a bullet from Breath of Bones during Fate Roulette, guaranteeing that the revolver would not fire on his sixth pull. 4
• Objects cease moving once they leave his contact; a fired bullet freezes in midair after leaving the muzzle. 17
• The ability is limited by his available reserve and cannot be used carelessly without leaving him vulnerable later. 2 13
• He relies on Time Stop to escape attacks too powerful to meet directly, often using the final seconds to restore an intimidating pose before time resumes. 107
• Its later applications can encompass a large area, halt battlefield-scale attacks, and support the relocation of targets or strategic objects. 649 822 1027

Timeflow Variance and Temporal Techniques

Bai Ye awakens as a Transcendent with a time-based acceleration ability that he initially attempts to pass off as Blood Qi Martial Arts. 102 202

• Timeflow Variance accelerates Bai Ye's movement and perception, allowing him to move at speeds opponents may be unable to visually track. 210
• He can employ the ability at lower settings for control or at Four-Times Speed for overwhelming close-range combat. 210 271
• His developing temporal control includes Time Acceleration, Time Permanence, Localized Time Reversal, Localized Time Stop, and Future Sight. 373
• Time-Stop Relocation combines Time Stop with God's Descent, enabling him to freeze a broad zone and reposition targets while the world is still. 822 1027
• Temporal Golden Body pauses Bai Ye's own time, making him untargetable and immune to damage while active. 863 908
• He can use Time Reversal to conceal the sequence of events surrounding his attacks and mislead suspicious opponents. 373 908

*Breath of Bones*

Breath of Bones is a Snake-tier taboo revolver that Bai Ye contained through Fate Roulette. After its acknowledgement, its bone-like body changed into a matte-black revolver and became bound to him. 5 43

• Fires scarlet bullets with enough force to explosively destroy mutated hyenas. 9
• Each shot initially drains Bai Ye's vitality and blood severely. 5 9
• Killing a target returns vitality and blood to Bai Ye, restoring his condition and strengthening his physique. 9 11
• Its absorption ability is not limitless; Bai Ye later discovers a ceiling to the vitality and blood it can provide. 43
• It still requires ammunition, making bullets a practical limitation despite its taboo nature. 21
• Bai Ye later infuses the revolver's shots with Blood Qi, using it to easily eliminate Mutants threatening Lu Chen's squad. 385

Enhanced Physique

By absorbing vitality from creatures killed with Breath of Bones, Bai Ye recovers from malnutrition and develops strength, endurance, and perception beyond those of ordinary people. 11

• After killing twelve hyenas, his body develops sleek muscles and surpasses that of an ordinary adult man. 11
• He can confront isolated gray sparrows without needing to activate Time Stop. 20
• His enhanced perception lets him barely follow the trajectories of ordinary pistol bullets. 20
• He presents his physical ability to others as blood and vitality martial arts rather than reveal Time Stop. 45
• Type III genetic enhancement and the Pangu USB Drive later raise his Blood Qi and recovery to levels far beyond conventional genetic modifiers. 183 349
• His Beast Transformation further increases his speed, strength, resilience, and Blood Qi output, though prolonged use consumes considerable Blood Qi. 271 272
• The Divine Gene gives him exceptionally rapid Blood Qi recovery and scarlet threads capable of draining an opponent's Blood Qi through physical contact. 964

Blood Qi Martial Arts

Bai Ye initially knows little formal Blood Qi Martial Arts and uses the term to hide the vitality stolen through Breath of Bones. 45 145

• He later acquires the Blood Qi Martial Arts Analysis Model, which can analyze, simulate, and teach him others' techniques through accelerated practice. 474
• He learns and demonstrates foundational disciplines including Circle, Armor, Feather, Spear, and Aura Isolation. 145 408
• His Crimson Armor can block gunfire, while Feather lets him move through the air with light-body techniques. 408
• He masters Sunburst through extensive simulated training and learns Moonless Celestial Radiance from Perky Xiaotong. 474 475
• He names his perfected Aura Isolation technique Myriad Absolutes Return to One. 475
• Although he falsely presents himself as Blood Qi Martial Arts' founder, he later genuinely becomes a highly capable teacher and spreads the system to protect surviving communities. 408 631 649

*Law-Stealing Hand* and Stolen Abilities

The Law-Stealing Hand is a Dragon-Level taboo object that can convert Transcendent abilities into storable cards by touching a target's soul. Consent is normally required, but Bai Ye's Time Stop can negate a target's opportunity to resist. 204

• Bai Ye initially has room for three stored cards, though he lies and claims he can hold five. 204
• His mental capacity is comparable to that of an ordinary Transcendent, likely strengthened by surviving the Eye of Ashen Ruin's contamination. 204
• An Xiaotong voluntarily lends him her Knight ability, granting him a golden sword and the immense offensive and defensive strength associated with her armored form. 204 210
• He later uses the Skull Card's Word Becomes Law to impose temporary conceptual rules, including rendering incoming bullets harmless by declaring that “spearmen are forbidden here.” 209
• His later spiritual growth allows him to maintain five cards, though the card-pool limit remains a meaningful restriction. 474
• Other cards and borrowed powers, including Fated Hit, give him methods of killing or influencing targets that cannot be conventionally dodged or defended against. 456

*World*, God's Descent, and Divine Kingdom

Bai Ye awakens the Transcendent ability World after containing the Pangu USB Drive. 349

• It manifests first as a silver rune that marks locations and permits short-range teleportation. 349
• Its range later grows from several hundred meters to roughly one thousand meters as his spiritual power improves. 474
• Bai Ye calls its advanced teleportation application God's Descent Plus, treating it as a spatial form of divine arrival. 474
• Alternate Space lets him construct a small self-contained world, which he names his Divine Kingdom. 619
• The Divine Kingdom functions as a secure storage space, a gathering point for allies, and a location where Bai Ye can manage taboo objects and stored abilities. 619 798

Eye of Ashen Ruin and Divine Power

Bai Ye encounters the Eye of Ashen Ruin at Black Mountain, where its Black-Gold Box cannot be moved through physical force alone and requires spiritual power. 87

• He survives its cognitive contamination by forcing himself into extreme self-hypnosis and smashing the Crimson Eyeball's influence. 87
• The Eye's power later develops into the Calamity Eye, granting Bai Ye immense destructive potential but repeatedly threatening to overwhelm his consciousness. 471 473 927
• Its influence can distort the environment into black and white, erase attacks, and damage vastly stronger opponents, but Bai Ye remains wary of its drive to destruction. 471
• Bai Ye also wields Flesh Prison Divine Power, allowing him to reshape living flesh and transform an entire castle into a prison of flesh and blood. 958
• By this stage, he identifies himself in the terminology of the era as the Calamity Heaven God. 964

Delusion Eye and Yi Jingran

Bai Ye gains control of the Delusion Eye and is able to use it alongside Yi Jingran, an artificial intelligence whose analytical abilities are particularly effective against information-based, historical, and mental threats. 992

• He can issue a System command to summon Yi Jingran, although ordinary observers may be unable to perceive Yi Jingran's manifestation. 992
• Yi Jingran can exploit broken psychological defenses, alter or restore information, and interfere with an enemy's memories. 1028
• Bai Ye relies on Yi Jingran's Civilized Era technical analysis, including identifying advanced Sea Clan equipment as technology originating from the Civilized Era. 1023
• In Heart Abyss, Bai Ye's spiritual power can directly shatter invading Abyssal aura, though the environment suppresses the Transcendent abilities of most of his companions. 1080

Firearms and Tactical Improvisation

Bai Ye develops his shooting ability through practice and makes up for imperfect marksmanship with positioning, Time Stop, and overwhelming artifact firepower. 8 9

• Practices against fixed and moving targets before confronting the hyena pack. 8
• Uses enemies’ equipment and resources pragmatically, including confiscating soldiers’ weapons and vehicles. 33 36
• Manipulates stronger opponents by feigning weakness, submitting when necessary, or exploiting their underestimation of him. 26 32 33
• Uses superior equipment, taboo objects, and spatial movement to defeat opponents whose raw Blood Qi exceeds his own. 302
• Can use the Omniscient Divine Perspective to rapidly inspect distant events and uncover hidden information. 315

Survival Philosophy

Bai Ye teaches Li You a “sixteen words for survival in the wasteland,” centered on humiliating or bullying weaker foes while submitting to stronger ones when necessary. 26

• Chooses to submit to Dawn City soldiers rather than start an unwinnable fight. 26
• Changes plans after learning of the Pangu USB Drive, deciding that Black Mountain's dangers are worth the potential reward. 29
• Uses captured soldiers as a controlled force, reversing the same group-based punishment system they had imposed on wastelanders. 36 37
• His later “Bai-Style Winning Theory” emphasizes recognizing reality, accepting unfavorable facts, and manipulating them into an eventual victory rather than retreating into self-deception. 831
• He considers equipment, preparation, intelligence, and unconventional powers as decisive factors in battle rather than relying only on Blood Qi totals. 302 649
• He later expands the Way of the Strong while guiding Li Xiao, arguing that true strength is not a rejection of all external power but the capacity to properly wield what one possesses. 1071 1073

Story Role / Major Arcs

Gray Soil Town and Fate Roulette

As an East District slave, Bai Ye enters Fate Roulette to claim Breath of Bones. By exploiting Time Stop to secretly remove a bullet, he survives the six-bullet gamble and becomes the artifact's holder. Tan Jie restores his status and publicly names him Deputy Commander, but the promotion immediately begins a power struggle between them. 1 4 5

Hyena Pack Crisis

Bai Ye delays the expedition against the mutated hyenas while practicing his shooting, accumulating additional Time Stop. Once the battle begins, he repeatedly fires Breath of Bones, kills twelve hyenas, and gains enough returned vitality to rebuild his body. His refusal to retreat exposes both his recklessness and his desire to grow stronger. 8 9 10 11

Alliance with Li You and the Fall of Gray Soil Town

After Li You becomes a Transcendent, he approaches Bai Ye with a plan to overthrow Tan Jie and King Snake. Bai Ye rejects the proposal because he does not want Gray Soil Town's residents endangered, but he and Li You later face the commanders' attempted betrayal together. 13 14 21 22

Dawn City Soldiers and Black Mountain

When Dawn City soldiers capture the survivors of Gray Soil Town as disposable scouts, Bai Ye initially submits to survive. After overhearing information about the Pangu USB Drive, supernatural evolution, and Shelter 189, he changes course and pursues Black Mountain instead. He uses Time Stop to overwhelm the soldiers’ command structure, kills Ying, captures the remaining force, and claims the Black Flood Dragon M300. 26 29 33 34 36

Journey to Shelter 189

Bai Ye leads the remaining soldiers and Li You toward Black Mountain, survives attacks by mutated wolves and carnivorous plants, and joins Gao Bancheng's expedition.

Eye of Ashen Ruin and Black Mountain

At Black Mountain, Bai Ye encounters the Eye of Ashen Ruin and survives its cognitive contamination through self-hypnosis and overwhelming arrogance. He learns that the artifact requires spiritual rather than physical strength to wield, establishing the Eye as both one of his greatest future powers and his most dangerous internal threat. 76 87

Dragon Candidate and the Core Laboratory

Bai Ye becomes involved in Apocalypse's Dragon-candidate politics, obtains Rabbit-type genetic enhancement, and constructs the Black King persona. With An Xiaotong and Li Baitian, he infiltrates the Core Laboratory, uses the Law-Stealing Hand to borrow Knight, and establishes himself as a threat capable of challenging Apocalypse openly. 156 183 202 204 209

Black King’s Assault on Apocalypse

Acting as the Black King, Bai Ye disrupts Apocalypse's public narrative, freezes volleys of bullets, humiliates Qin Songting, and massacres attacking enforcers with Timeflow Variance and Knight. The spectacle causes the Black King identity to become a defining symbol of terror and resistance in Dawn City. 209 210 215

Apocalypse Power Struggle and Satellite City No. 6

Under his Lord Bai identity, Bai Ye rises within Apocalypse, manipulates Lu Yunxiao's ambitions, and engineers a false narrative surrounding Qin Songting's return. He is then assigned to Satellite City No. 6, where he leads forces against the Zoo and proves his combat value to Huo Zheng. 231 246 247 267

White Bone Armor and the Zoo War

Bai Ye develops Endless Bone into White Bone Armor and uses Beast Transformation and Four-Times Speed to breach a heavily armed mercenary line. His one-man assault destroys defensive positions and allows Huo Zheng's army to advance, though the armor's heavy Blood Qi consumption exposes a major limitation. 271 272

Pangu USB Drive and the Rise of *World*

Bai Ye finally contains the Pangu USB Drive, receiving genetic optimization, sharply increased Blood Qi, and the spatial Transcendent ability World. He gradually expands this ability from short-range teleportation into God's Descent and begins using Current Era Progress, System upgrades, and the Blood Qi Martial Arts Analysis Model to accelerate his growth. 349 364 373 473 474 475

Rebuilding Dawn City

As Cunning Rabbit and the Black King, Bai Ye destroys hostile power structures while coercing wealthy factions into financing Dawn City's reconstruction. His methods are violent and tyrannical, but he keeps vital resource-holders alive because rebuilding civilization is more useful to him than indiscriminate slaughter. 513 527

Divine Kingdom and the Altered Timeline

After gaining Alternate Space, Bai Ye establishes the Divine Kingdom and operates across increasingly unstable historical circumstances. He teaches Blood Qi Martial Arts, obtains Civilized Era information, and repeatedly adopts the identity of Mr. Bai to influence major factions and prevent the collapse of human civilization. 619 631 665 704

North Mang, Pseudo-Humans, and White Dragon

Calamity Heaven God and the West Continent Conflicts

Bai Ye acquires and demonstrates Flesh Prison Divine Power, destroys the Purityless Chapel's protection, and openly identifies himself as the Calamity Heaven God. His overwhelming power draws attention across the Southern Border and places him in conflict with the Ten Hands, Evil Gods, and other West Continent powers. 958 964 997

Sea King Conflict

Bai Ye confronts the Sea King and withstands her world-destroying tidal wave without injury. He freezes the entire battlefield through Time-Stop Relocation, steals the Sea Clan's Domain amplification device, and returns the Zeroing Casket to its former owner as a final act of psychological warfare. 1027 1028
