Background / History

Nie Yun was once a peak Dantian Acupoint Realm cultivator whose previous life ended amid failure, family decline, and regret. His weakened state caused the Nie Tian Branch to lose its standing, while his mother, Nie Ling, later died seeking a Pengxin Snow Lotus to save him. Reborn into his sixteen-year-old body, he resolves to change both his fate and his treatment of his parents. 1

Upon rebirth, he possesses neither cultivation nor Bloodline Factors. He finds the ancient art Heaven and Earth's Creation, Infinite Bloodline, which enables him to create Bloodline Factors and dantians rather than inherit them. This immediately gives him a path back into cultivation and becomes the basis of his abnormal growth. 1

His knowledge from two lives allows him to intervene in events before they unfold: he learns of the Feng Family's Beardless Grass well before it would trigger a conflict among the Four Great Families, and he works to prevent Luoshui City's destruction by the Demon Race. 8

In his previous life, he reached the Floating Sky Continent through an ancient Teleportation Array after being forced from the Shenfeng Empire. In his new life, he actively seeks that same route once his strength surpasses the array's usual transport limit. 384

Appearance

Nie Yun's natural appearance is neither especially handsome nor conspicuous; he can disappear into a crowd without attracting notice. His experiences and battles later give him a distinct, composed bearing that others find exceptional. 17 1146

• Often conceals his natural appearance through Disguise Qi or his Disguise Master Talent. 14 611
• Can replicate another person's appearance closely enough to infiltrate sects and evade pursuit. 611 1036
• Usually keeps his aura tightly restrained, at times appearing no different from an ordinary person despite overwhelming strength. 638 1608

Personality

Nie Yun is calculating, composed, and exceptionally difficult to intimidate. His knowledge of his previous life lets him anticipate threats, exploit opponents' habits, and make preparations long before others understand the situation. 8 693

He is ruthless toward enemies he considers treacherous or dangerous. He kills Zang Hongyi and Hu Kui, destroys the evidence, and uses deception freely when it protects his goals or allies. 373 697

Despite this pragmatism, he places great importance on family, loyalty, dignity, and personal principles. His rebirth is driven partly by regret over his treatment of Nie Xiaotian and Nie Ling, and he refuses to abandon companions to a Mysterious Immortal Realm Asura even when doing so leaves him in danger. 1 1046

His encounters with Ye Jianxing lead him to reconsider judging others by his own standards. He concludes that a person may lack wealth or power, but must not lack dignity or principles. 548
