Li Qingyu

Li Qingyu is the daughter of Li Wudi and Mu He, step-sister to Li Tianming, and grandaughter to Li Jingyu. She is also a member of the Grand-Orient Sect, part of the Apex Branch of the Li Saint Clan, and personal disciple of Ye Shaoqing. She is also a disciple of the Decimo Dao Palace and the disciple of the Sky Hall King.

## Appearance

Li Qingyu is a young girl, dressed in a light orange long skirt with her hair tied neatly in a ponytail. Her eyes glow like the surface of a lake. She has an inherently elegant bearing but her features are gentle and not overbearing. She also has pale grey hair due to her Lifesbane.

After overcoming the tribulation of the Blood of the Old Gods, Li Qingyu's underwent a transformation. Originally, she was never the kind of beauty that shocked the world. While her appearance hadn't changed much from before, her internal countenance was completely altered. She gave off the same grace and aura that her Infinite Lunar Goddesses did. In fact, she was almost like a living messenger for the goddesses and looked almost identical to them.

## Personality

Li Qingyu is hardworking and driven person, being able to endure the bullying growing up and working hard to become stronger and better. She is also calm, not reacting to the bullying of others, and focuses on her goals.

## Lifesbane

Li Qingyu originally had three black bane-rings that were interlocking. When she was cultivating under the pressure of the Imperial Ninefold Gates, she received enlightenment from Tianming about defying fate and was able to overcome her lifesbane, transforming from three rings to five blinding moon-like rings which is known as the Pentamoon Skybane. She later discovers that on nights when the moon shines, she can blend with moonlight and assimilate it into her body, enhancing her beast ki in the process. During a full moon, she would be half a level stronger.

Li Qingyu bane-rings increased to 9, making her a nonabane.

* **Infinite Lunar Goddesses** - The evolved forms of Li Qingyu's bane-rings after overcoming the tribulation of the Blood of the Old Gods.

Apart from the nine bane-rings her totems manifested from, there was also a mirror-like marking of similar size. In place of a tenth bane-ring, she awakened a **Divine Ancient Ring**. It seems to be the true core of the benefits from the Blood of the Old Gods.

* **Divine Ancient Ring** - Creates reflections of Li Qingyu's nine totems, making a total of eighteen totems. The moment she used it to borrow an additional nine totems' worth of force for her attacks, her enemies would definitely be caught off guard.

## Lifebound Beast (Shuo Yue)

Lunar Kunpeng (Shuo Yue)

* It was previously a Grandwhite Kunpeng, and later evolved to a Lunar Kunpeng.
* It is a triple water, wind and moon-type beast and is a top-tier eight-star beast. Due to its unique moon attribute, it allows Qingyu and it to cultivate by absorbing moonlight.

## History

After her father was crippled and her mother committed suicide when she was three years old, she has grown up in the care of her grandmother, Li Jingyu.

When she was introduced, she had been travelling with her grandmother through out the Flameyellow Continent in search for heirs of the Li Saint Clan who have overcome their Lifesbane and gained bane-rings. They happened to be in Ignispolis the day Wei Jing was cured of her Lifesbane and received three bane-rings. Staying in the city to further observe her character and morality, they eventually left with Tianming, who had five bane-rings, instead, and brought him back to the Grand-Orient Sect.

Two days before the Prime Struggle, Qingyu was asked by her friend, Guo Xiaofu, for assistance in rescuing her parents who had been kidnapped by bandits. When the duo set out for Fuling Town, Guo Xiaofu was anxious and seemed out of sorts which was noticed by Qingyu, who chalked it up to her worry for her parents. When they arrived, they were met by Li Xuanchen and Yuwen Shengcheng. Guo Xiaofu immediately went on her knees and beg them to release her parents since she had done as she was told. Shocked at the situation, Qingyu tried to get answers from both of them and found out that they were doing this for revenge against Li Tianming. Qingyu demanded they release Guo Xiaofu and her parents and when they agree, Li Xuanchen killed her. Furious at the death of her friend, Qingyu steel herself for combat and fought both of them. She was able to kill both of them and was detained by the sect's Guardians.

After returning to the sect, Yuwen Shendu almost killed her but was stopped by Tianming. Tianming took his offer to replace his life for Qingyu's life and both of them entered a life-and-death battle, which Tianming emerged victorious. Qingyu was declared innocent and the charges were dropped.

### Theocracy of the Ancients

After the Grand-Orient Realm Sect War, she had accompanied her father to the Ancient Qilin Clan in order to save Tianming. She was accepted as the personal disciple of the Sky Hall King and joined the Decimo Dao Palace.

During the break of the war between the Decimo Dao Palace and the Ancient Theocrats, Qingyu told Tianming that she had been having the same dream during the period. She dreamt about seeing nine moons in the sky and people calling her to go back. She had been having it nine times and there was no changes to her bane rings. Tianming told her to check with her father once he was awake.

After the war between the Decimo Dao Palace and the Ancient Theocrats, Qingyu and Lingfeng stayed in the Decimo Dao Palace after Tianming left. One day, as she was playing chess with Feng, the moon shined ever so bright and Qingyu fell into a trance and started floating in the air despite not being a Sky Saint. Feng followed her into the air and attempted to grab her hand but a fearsome power came from her body and shook him to the point that his hand started bleeding. Qingyu's eyes had turned a pale white as she continued to float up and soon surpass the flying limits of a Sky Saint. Feng grabbed onto her calf and was brought up as well. They floated until they appeared to have melded with the moon, before the full mon returned to its waning form. Li Wudi had witnessed the entire incident and seems to have known what caused the incident.

### Divine Moon Realm

According to the letter from Li Wudi, Ye Lingfeng and **Li Qingyu** went to the Divine Moon Realm. When Li Qingyu appeared in the Divine Moon Realm, the entire Divine Moon Realm was in an uproar because she possessed Nonabane's body. She had nine moons on her arms, far more impressive than any of the ancestors of the divine moonrace. Even elders of the divine moonrace that were in secluded cultivation had to come out and take a look! She awakened nine totems, which are all said to be top level even among Celestial Orderians! Almost immediately, news spread to Orderia and they took away the Ninemoon Goddess, probably to nurture her.

### Orderia

When Li Qingyu was in Orderia, she had been adopted by the ruler of the Celestial Orderian Race, namely the Sun Emperor. Li Qingyu has been prepared as the heir of Sun Emperor. In other words Li Qingyu is the next in line to become the empress of Orderia. She was even forced into an arranged marriage with Long Renshe.

It was revealed that the nine mysterious drops of blood the Sun Emperor fused with Li Qingyu are known as the Blood of the Old Gods. According to legends, the blood of the old gods may even increase the number of one’s bane-rings and transform their talent. It’s more valuable than a nine-star universal manna or a grade-nine divine artifact, even in the Mysterium Cluster. As a nonabane, Qingyu is already way ahead of others, the cream of the crop. With the blood of the old gods, she might become first in the entire universe when her bane-rings complete their transformation.

Through her perseverance, she had finally overcame the tribulation of the Blood of the Old Gods. Her transformation had finally been completed, and the benefits the old gods' blood brought her weren't a sudden boost in power, but rather new talent and potential from her enhanced bloodline. In place of a tenth bane-ring, she awakened a **Divine Ancient Ring**.
