Power Progression

Background / History

Ling Muxi never knew her birth parents. Her grandfather found her wrapped in white silk and gave her the surname Ling; her given name, Muxi, meant receiving the Barbarian Race’s grace. She grew up in Mountain Village within the wider Jiuli community 300 329 336.

Her Taiyin Divine Body made her frail and frequently ill. Rather than being isolated, she was cherished by grandparents, uncles, aunts, and the children of the eighty-one Jiuli villages. The adults protected her so fiercely that other children feared provoking her, knowing they might be punished if she cried 330 331.

The emergence of the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable killed numerous people she knew, including elders, uncles, and older brothers. Qingyue’s resistance saved the surviving community. These losses drove Muxi to leave home, seek Qingyue’s instruction, and pursue enough strength to protect her remaining loved ones 329 330 367.

Appearance

• Usual clothing: Blue or pale-blue dresses and robes, often worn while carrying a spear 368 386 486.
• Hair and complexion: Long, black hair described as cascading like a waterfall, with luminous, fair skin 482 486.
• Bearing: Delicate and fairy-like in peaceful settings, but compared to a war god when fighting 334 370 439.
• Childhood dream appearance: A rosy-faced child with small horn-shaped pigtails 334.
• Signs of aging: White strands, diminished skin radiance, and fine wrinkles appeared during her long vigil. Immortal Medicine restored her youth, but her hair whitened again as that renewed lifetime waned 482 483.

Personality

Muxi is lively, affectionate, and outspoken around those she trusts. She chatters about village life, eagerly introduces Qingyue to her family, and expresses closeness through embraces and playful teasing. Chiyou specifically recognizes her gratitude and sincerity despite having grown up surrounded by affection 330 331 333 434.

Her determination becomes extreme when loved ones are threatened. She carries Qingyue across the world despite exhaustion, refuses to retreat from stronger enemies, and repeatedly risks death to awaken her. Even Dao Severing does not diminish her emotional attachments 329 370 408 427.

Her affection for Qingyue includes possessiveness and jealousy. In their reincarnation dream, she rejects the village youths and declares that her elder sister belongs to her; later, she envies the place Qingyue’s older brother holds in her heart. Muxi herself cannot fully name these feelings, while the narrative also presents their bond as that of exceptionally close sisters and family 334 352 370 406 413.

Abilities & Skills

Taiyin and Innate Yin-Yang Constitution

• Her original Taiyin Divine Body produced powerful lunar energy but also caused childhood illness and endangered her future 310 331 434.
• The Undying Lotus’s chaos world gave her an acquired innate body without completely replacing her original taiyin origin 370.
• Her cultivation naturally gathered heaven-and-earth essence; observing this inspired Qingyue’s development of the Indestructible Heavenly Art 352.
• After transformation in the Reincarnation Pool, her constitution combined innate qi with lunar and solar powers. Qingyue judged her acquired constitution no weaker than a Sacred Body 434 439 440.

Balance Dao

• Uses innate yin-yang power to regulate forces, calm destructive collisions, and balance the myriad Daos 439.
• Redirected the attacks of three Silverblood Great Sages and injured them with her spear while developing the art 439.
• Qingyue’s demonstration of Forbidden Art: Dao showed her how balancing different powers could gather their strength into oneself 440.
• Limit: She initially understood only the art’s threshold. Against Supremes, attacks exceeding her capacity to contain and balance power remained dangerous 439 456.

Reincarnation Scripture

• Inherited the Primordial Human King’s Reincarnation Scripture in the Land of Reincarnation 408 411.
• Drew surrounding reincarnation power into her spear, combining it with chaos and circulating yin-yang energy 411.
• Redirected an enemy’s force into the earth through yin-yang transformation and reincarnation 411.
• The inheritance addressed her earlier difficulty finding arts capable of expressing her innate body’s strength 403 411.

Desolate Pagoda Empowerment

• The Nine-Layer Bone Pagoda mark served as a conduit for the Desolate Pagoda’s power while the artifact itself could not emerge 362 367.
• Manifested a Dharma Form surrounded by ten grotto-heavens, then merged it with the Bone Pagoda imprint 367 368.
• Received a Great Dao Divine Form that manifested as a ten-tier Bone Pagoda. Her taiyin origin linked the forms and multiplied the power her body could bear 370.
• Limits: Her imperfect innate body, low cultivation realm, weak Dao control, and limited mortal-combat experience prevented full use of the borrowed strength 368 371.

Regeneration and Scripture Inheritances

• Divine Spirit Indestructible Scripture: Restored her burned body almost instantly in the Fire Domain. Its hidden danger was that cultivating it allowed Longevity Heavenly Venerable to suppress her consciousness and use her as an incarnation 310 327.
• Nine Secrets: Zhe: Reformed her shattered body while she approached Qingyue’s chaos black hole 337.
• Immortal King Nine Seals: Received the scripture inheritance directly into her heart from the Immortal Shadow within the divine spring; specific applications are not documented here 319.
• Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art aura: An aura left by Qingyue helped her reach Azure Mountain and approach the Ghost Face Mask inside the black hole. These incidents do not establish that she mastered the complete Demon Art 329 337 413.

Spearmanship and Final Strike

• Trained with the spear from childhood under Jiuli and Barbarian Race traditions, favoring sweeping attacks and direct thrusts 370.
• Later combined her spear strikes with innate qi, yin-yang origins, reincarnation power, and her developing Dao 411 438 456.
• During the Dark Turmoil, used a temporary secret art to regain peak combat strength despite old age 485 486.
• Accepted the faith and prayers of living beings into her final attack, but lacked specialized faith-cultivation methods to exploit that power fully 486.
• Her final strike destroyed Brahma Supreme’s and Netherworld Ancient Emperor’s immortal platforms and primordial spirits, while grievously injuring four other Supremes 486.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Original spear — A weapon she refined herself and carried for over a decade. It shattered during her attempt to awaken Qingyue from the chaos black hole 337 353.
• Undying Spear — Forged by Qingyue from a blue divine stone as an Inherited Saint Weapon. The stone had supported the Undying Lotus’s seed after its nirvana and contained exceptional chaos essence 352 368.
  • Normally sealed to resemble an ordinary weapon, but could release Saint Weapon might when Muxi risked her life 365.
  • Absorbed heaven-and-earth essence to repair cracks during battle 368.
  • Shattered after her final clash with the Supremes; a spear-tip fragment later served as the basis for her restoration 486 504.
• Nine-Layer Bone Pagoda imprint — A mark between her brows that linked her to the Desolate Pagoda’s power 365 367.
• Bodhi Seed — Gifted by Qingyue; aided her comprehension and responded to the faith of living beings during her final battle 371 411 486.
• Jade stone containing Reincarnation Lake water — Used to create the childhood dream in which she and Qingyue lived together for ten years 334.
• Heavenly Desire Stone — Used to send the thoughts and emotions of countless beings into Qingyue and help awaken her from slaughter-driven madness 420 427.
• Peach of Immortality — Restored her youth and extended her life, without making her permanently ageless 482 483.
• Reincarnation Seal — Branded onto her by Qingyue’s Immortal Emperor-level reincarnation art, restoring her shattered primordial spirit and vitality 474.

Relationships

• Grandfather — Found and named her, raised her, and protected her throughout childhood 300 331 334.
• Jiuli community — Her adoptive extended family. Their care shaped her warmth, while their losses motivated her pursuit of strength 330 331 336.
• Uncle Chi — Received her after the exhausting journey home and immediately supplied divine power to restore her weakened body 329.
• War Master Chiyou — Called “Uncle War Master Chiyou” by Muxi. Guided her efforts to help Qingyue and tried to keep her out of a battle she was too weak to survive 333 365 368.
• Ancient Demon Saint and Old War God — Revered as grandfather figures. Their disappearance under Ancient Emperor Weapon attacks provoked her furious counterattack 365 368.
• Desolate Pagoda — Mentor and source of borrowed power; encouraged her faith in Qingyue and taught her the divine form used to defend the Immortal Cocoon 362 367 370.
• Longevity Heavenly Venerable — Deceptive benefactor who taught her a healing scripture to facilitate possession. His betrayal left her angry and helpless until Qingyue saved her 310 313 327.
• Taiyin Saint Son and Sun Saint Son — Treated her well and tried to stop her entering the Land of Reincarnation. She recognized their affinity with her constitution but was not attracted to them 402 406.
• Jiang Wuxin — Distrusted his flirtatious behavior and portraits of women, especially when he approached Qingyue. Later worked alongside him in seeking a way to awaken her sister 403 420.
• Duan Tiande — Fellow explorer of the Land of Reincarnation and an ally entrusted with her protection; helped identify a possible source of the Heavenly Desire Stone 403 420.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Seeking Strength and Surviving Possession

Muxi seeks Qingyue’s instruction, then enters the Fire Domain to temper her Taiyin Divine Body. Longevity Heavenly Venerable exploits this effort by teaching her the Divine Spirit Indestructible Scripture and secretly establishing himself within her heart. He later suppresses her consciousness and uses her body as an incarnation until Qingyue saves her 300 310 313 327.

Return to Jiuli and the Reincarnation Dream

Finding Qingyue apparently lifeless beside a grave on Azure Mountain, Muxi carries her toward the Southern Ridge. More than four months of uninterrupted travel leave her near collapse; she conceals Qingyue’s identity from Uncle Chi to avoid exposing her to enemies 329.

At Jiuli, Muxi shares a reincarnation dream with Qingyue: ten years of peaceful village life pass in an instant outside. The experience gives Qingyue inspiration, while the subsequent revelation of her painful past makes Muxi understand the loneliness behind her reserve 334.

Awakening the Chaos Black Hole

When Qingyue’s despair turns her into a world-devouring chaos black hole, Muxi advances while everyone else retreats. She reaches the Ghost Face Mask and projects their shared memories into it. Her fading life helps stir Qingyue back to consciousness, but leaves Muxi so close to death that Qingyue preserves her as a Desolate Slave 337.

Defending the Immortal Cocoon

During Qingyue’s method-creation tribulation, Muxi initially lacks even Saint-level strength. After Chiyou and other protectors disappear beneath Ancient Emperor Weapon attacks, she draws on the Desolate Pagoda to battle three Saint Kings and shield Qingyue’s Immortal Cocoon 365 367 368.

She withstands a combined attack from thirteen Saint King-class vessels and three Ancient Emperor Weapons, then returns to guard the unharmed cocoon despite grievous wounds. Her borrowed strength eventually reaches its limits, and she falls after exhausting herself in another spear attack 370 371.

Emperor Road and the Land of Reincarnation

Muxi leaves for the Emperor Road to become strong enough to fight beside Qingyue. After years of continuous battle, she recognizes the rumors about Yang Wuzheng’s remains as a trap and rushes toward the Thirty-Seventh City to support her 381 393.

She enters the Land of Reincarnation hand in hand with Qingyue, receives the Primordial Human King’s inheritance, and attempts to bring Reincarnation Divine Liquid to her dissolving sister. After defending Qingyue against overwhelming attackers, she is healed with the life origins and Dao fragments of the slain Great Sages 406 408 411 413.

Restoring Qingyue’s Clarity

As Qingyue approaches Dao-Proving through slaughter, Muxi helps seek the Heavenly Desire Stone. She repeatedly approaches her sister with the Undying Spear and memories of their companions, enduring seventeen knockbacks before Qingyue finally awakens. Qingyue then protects the badly injured Muxi through Divine Punishment 420 427.

After recovering in the Reincarnation Pool, Muxi spends a peaceful day with Qingyue on an Ancient Life Star. Later conflict with the Silverblood pushes her to establish her own balance Dao 434 438 439.

Forbidden-Zone War and Restoration

As a Quasi-Emperor, Muxi exhausts herself resisting two Supremes and nearly loses her primordial spirit. Qingyue repairs her flesh with Emperor Blood Treasure Medicine, then later creates an Immortal Emperor-level reincarnation art that restores her shattered spirit 464 474.

Long Vigil, Dark Turmoil, and Return

Muxi watches over Qingyue’s secluded home for thousands of years, renews her life with Immortal Medicine, and searches the river of time when Qingyue vanishes without a trace. Even alternative Dao attainment cannot stop her renewed lifetime from declining 482 483.

During the Dark Turmoil, she fights six Supremes despite her age. Her final strike kills two and severely wounds the others, but she disappears and the Undying Spear shatters. A faint image of her returns toward the Southern Ridge carrying part of the spearhead, still regretting that she never saw her sister again 485 486.

Qingyue eventually restores Muxi using a spear-tip fragment, takes her through modern streets on a recreated Earth, and tells her they will go home to their family 504.
