Background / History
Ye Li belonged to a side branch of the Nine Heart Begonia family and grew up within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. She had low Soul Power and did not awaken the family’s strategically valuable Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. With little standing in the clan and no support from the family’s main branch, she and her parents moved to a small city in the Star Luo Empire 112.
While earning Gold Soul Coins in a Soul Fighting Arena, she used her evil-attribute second Soul Skill, Demon Scythe Surprise Attack. An Angel Legion patrol treated this as proof that she was a fallen Soul Master and seized her. When her parents intervened, the patrol branded them accomplices and sent the entire family to Slaughter City 112.
Her father was ambushed and killed while protecting his family. Her mother gradually went mad and died after a year; both were made into Bloody Mary. Ye Li survived for decades, eventually becoming a patrol officer in the outer city. These experiences left her with a deep hatred of Spirit Hall’s Angel Legion 104 111 112.
Personality
Ye Li’s desire for revenge develops into indiscriminate bloodlust. She accepts slaughter-based trials without hesitation, disregards whether her victims are commoners or nobles, and delights in the power awarded for killing them 102 104 105.
Despite this brutality, she is a cautious combatant. Her governing principle is to ambush whenever possible rather than fight head-on. She studies targets, maintains escape routes, retreats when exhausted, and waits for environmental dangers to subside before advancing 103 111.
Rapid advancement briefly makes her overconfident, but she remains aware that her cultivation is unstable. The Seventh Trial strips away that confidence through repeated deaths, leaving her nearly hopeless before she turns her accumulated resentment against an illusion of herself 113 114.
Abilities & Skills
Scythe Martial Soul
Her original Fine Iron Scythe evolves into the Rakshasa Demon Scythe through the Rakshasa God’s modifications 104.
- Second Soul Skill — Demon Scythe Surprise Attack: A swift strike imbued with evil-attribute Soul Power. Witnessing this skill leads the Angel Legion to condemn her as a fallen Soul Master 112.
- Eighth Soul Skill — Rakshasa Chaotic Blade Dance: An area attack used to massacre a city during the Third Trial 104.
- Ninth Soul Skill — Rakshasa World-Extinguishing Slash: Releases a purple energy blade over 100 meters long. Its demonic energy drains vitality and reduces surrounding matter to ash; it kills at least 1,000 beasts in the secret realm but nearly exhausts her Soul Power 110.
- Recorded ring configuration after the Fifth Trial: Purple, purple, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red 111.
Ghostly Shadow Stealth
A divine skill awarded for completing the First Rakshasa Trial. It turns Ye Li into a ghostly shadow and grants partial intangibility 103.
- Allows her to pass through buildings, infiltrate guarded locations, and approach targets unnoticed 103 111 113.
- Enables her assassinations of Tang Chen and the Hell Spider King 103 111.
- Its ordinary concealment is insufficient against Tang Chen’s spiritual perception. The Asura God secretly reinforces it with Rakshasa origin divine power, making her undetectable to anyone below God King during the assassination 103.
Domains
| Domain | Documented effects |
|---|---|
| Divine Slaughter’s Domain | Increases her attributes by 10% and suppresses enemy attributes by 10%. Its possession also frees her from Slaughter City’s restrictions 104 110. |
| Rakshasa Domain | Evolves from the Divine Slaughter’s Domain after the Fourth Trial. Suppresses enemy attributes by 20%; Rakshasa demon will accelerates enemies’ Soul Power expenditure and makes wounds harder to heal 110. |
Soul Bone Skills
- Mental Barrier: Protects her soul against most mental attacks; supplied by the Dream Demon head bone 113.
- Teleportation: Moves her up to 10 kilometers per activation with low Soul Power expenditure. Limited to five uses per day; supplied by the Lightning Rabbit right-leg bone 113.
- Demon Spider Devour: Converts a target’s blood and Soul Power into her own Soul Power, supporting both advancement and recovery; supplied by the Man Faced Demon Spider left-leg bone 113.
Rakshasa Divine Skills
Completing the Seventh Trial gives Ye Li all of the Rakshasa God’s divine skills. Its final reward explicitly names four 114:
- Space-Rending Abyss Slash
- Vengeful Evil Demon Scythe
- Vengeful Evil Rakshasa
- Demon Scythe Strangulation
Within the trial’s illusion, she unleashes space-warping scythe rays and uses auxiliary scythes summoned by Rakshasa God Armor. Her resentment continuously replenishes her divine power as she overwhelms her counterpart 114.
Combat Experience and Limitations
- Ambush specialist: Decades in Slaughter City teach her to prioritize concealment, observation, and surprise attacks 103 111.
- Flight: Used to escape beast hordes, recover in treetops, and travel between cities 110 111.
- Weak cultivation foundation: Her forced advancement leaves her among the weakest fighters at her rank. Even at level 99, she cannot reliably defeat level-98 Golden Blade Douluo Zhuge Tiedan without a sneak attack 110 113.
- Exhausted natural potential: The Rakshasa God does not improve her underlying potential. Her advancement depends on divine-trial rewards and Soul Bones rather than ordinary cultivation 104.
- Purifying-light vulnerability: The Sea God’s Cosmic Demon-Breaking severely injures her and leaves purifying light that prevents self-healing. Nine Heart Begonia treatment removes it 112.
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Rakshasa Demon Scythe — Divine Artifact: Supplied in advance for the Second Trial. Distinct from her evolved Martial Soul of the same name; used to kill Tang Chen, slice apart the secret realm’s man-eating flower, and behead the Hell Spider King 103 110 111.
- Storage Soul Tool: Holds the lower-age Soul Bones obtained from Spirit Hall bishops, which she rejects as unsuitable for her inheritance 111.
- Black robe: Worn during her nighttime infiltration of the Heaven Dou imperial treasury 111.
Absorbed Soul Bone Set
Ye Li selects six bones from the two imperial treasuries. Completion of the Sixth Trial adds 10,000 years to each bone’s age 113.
| Position | Soul Beast | Age before trial reward | Named skill |
|---|---|---|---|
| Head | Dream Demon | 80,000 years; the absorption passage also calls it 85,000 years 113 | Mental Barrier |
| Torso | White Tiger | 50,000 years 113 | — |
| Left arm | Snowfield Wolf | 55,000 years 113 | — |
| Right arm | White Tiger | 55,000 years 113 | — |
| Right leg | Lightning Rabbit | 88,000 years 113 | Teleportation |
| Left leg | Man Faced Demon Spider | 75,000 years 113 | Demon Spider Devour |
Rejected Soul Bones
- 8,000-year Lightning Leopard left-leg bone: Obtained from a Spirit Hall Platinum Bishop in the Star Luo Empire 111.
- Wind Chime Bird right-arm bone, over 15,000 years old: Obtained from a Spirit Hall Platinum Bishop in the Heaven Dou Empire 111.
She chooses to absorb only bones over 30,000 years old, despite the Sixth Trial imposing no age requirement 111.
Relationships
- Rakshasa God — Patron and prospective predecessor. Initially empowers Ye Li as a pawn against Tang Chen, then accelerates her inheritance to escape his anticipated revenge. Provides trials, the divine scythe, and a map of the secret realm, while privately disregarding Ye Li’s survival 102 104 111.
- Tang Chen — Assassination target. Ye Li has witnessed his overwhelming strength and avoids direct confrontation. She kills him during his inheritance, but Ning Zi later resurrects him. An illusion of him repeatedly kills Ye Li during the Seventh Trial 103 105 114.
- Asura God — Covert facilitator of the assassination. Secretly strengthens Ye Li’s concealment to teach Tang Chen a lesson in caution 103.
- God of Evil — Takes control of her Seventh Trial for amusement, subjecting her to repeated deaths before returning control to the Rakshasa God 113 114.
- Ye Lan — Nine Heart Begonia patriarch whom she threatens into healing her. She subsequently orders him to conceal her visit 112.
- Parents — Arrested alongside her after trying to prevent the Angel Legion from taking her away. Both die in Slaughter City 112.
- Spirit Hall’s Angel Legion — The organization responsible for her family’s imprisonment and the principal focus of her hatred 104 112.
Story Role / Major Arcs
Assassination of Tang Chen
- The Rakshasa God recruits Ye Li while Tang Chen is completing his Asura inheritance trials 102.
- After earning Ghostly Shadow Stealth, she enters the inheritance temple and observes Tang Chen’s alternating absorption and refinement periods 103.
- With secret assistance from the Asura God, she attacks during refinement, pierces his heart, and continues until he is dismembered. The trial recognizes the killing as a success 103.
- Ning Zi resurrects Tang Chen. Unable to find his escaped attacker, he destroys Slaughter City and resolves to accelerate his inheritance 105.
Rakshasa Secret Realm
- Ye Li recognizes that the realm’s peaceful scenery is an illusion generated by a man-eating flower and destroys it with her divine artifact 110.
- After nearly exhausting herself against a beast horde, she establishes a concealed treetop refuge for recovery 110 111.
- A map from the Rakshasa God reveals the Hell Spider King’s underground lair. She kills it by ambush, waits three days for its venom to dissipate, and leaves through the vortex inside its nest 111.
Imperial Treasury Raids
- Her first Heaven Dou raid fails when the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud’s Sea God remnant will attacks her with Cosmic Demon-Breaking 112.
- After coercing Ye Lan into treating her injuries, she returns and steals five Soul Bones over 30,000 years old 112.
- She ignores the Heaven Dou emperor’s bounty and infiltrates Star Luo’s treasury, obtaining eight more valuable bones. Absorbing the best complete set advances her to Limit Douluo through the Sixth Trial’s reward 113.
Seventh Trial: Endless Reincarnation
- The God of Evil replaces her intended challenge with an overwhelmingly powerful illusion of Asura God Tang Chen 113 114.
- Flight, direct attacks, pleas for mercy, and a deceptive ambush all fail. Repeated deaths eventually leave her resigned to defeat 114.

- Her victory raises her Rakshasa affinity to 90%, placing her close to the threshold for inheritance without completing it 114.
