Yan Li (妍丽Yán lì) is a cultivator born to the small Azure Yang Sect in the Scattered Star Seas. She is very close to her junior martial sister Yuan Yao. Both have average aptitude and mediocre cultivation techniques.[3]

History[]

When they were at the final stage of Qi Condensation,[4] Yan Li and Yuan Yao decided to leave their small sect in search of a Dao Companion with profound cultivation, who could help them ascend further in their cultivation.[3] For this purpose, they wore simple, provocative garments to attract potential suitors.

When they arrived on Stalwart Star Island, the duo wandered the Sky Capital Market (the island's commercial district). To their dismay, they only attracted several men at the Qi Condensation stage. When she caught sight of Qu Hun, then a Late-Foundation Establishment cultivator.[5] They offer to guide Qu Hun, and in extension his "junior" Han Li around the island, but Qu Hun rejects their offer.[4]

First Meeting[]

In their search, Yan Li and her sister arrived on the Stalwart Star Island[6]. The two wandered around the sky capital market on the island. To their dismay, they caught the attention of several men who were merely at the Qi Condensation stage. She caught sight of a Late-Foundation Establishment cultivator[6].

Yan Li learned that this cultivator's name was Crooked Soul. Her sister offered to be a guide for Crooked Soul and his nephew that accompanied him. She did not pay attention to his nephew. The nephew was Han Li who was concealing his cultivation. Unfortunately, the offer offer was rejected to the dismay of herself and her sister.

Concubine of the Azure Yang Sect[]

Due to unforeseen events, Yan Li parted ways with her martial sister[7]. While separated, Yan Li managed to catch the eye of the young master of the Azure Yang Sect. The young master enticed her into becoming his concubine. However, this was a ruse and she was tricked into becoming a Cultivation Furnace for the young master[7]. Years later she encountered her sister and told her what happened.

Yan Li and her sister plotted to escape this undesirable fate. Together they killed young master on the night that he consummated marriage with her sister. Unfortunately, Yan Li lost her body in the process. Her primal soul was saved and preserved by her sister. Yan Li's sister went through enormous danger to obtain rare materials such as entering the Heavenvoid Hall to obtain Soul Nurturing Wood.

Reviving her corpse[]

Yan Li's corpse was preserved and stored by her sister. Centuries later, she was revived in her revived corpse by her sister using the Soulrise Technique[8]. Unfortunately this triggered one of the three great natural disasters in the Scattered Star Seas - the Ghost Mist[9]. Yan Li and nearby cultivators were caught by the mist and pulled into the Umbra Realm. She along with her sister remained in the Umbra Realm to take advantage of its energies to cultivate[10].

Ascending to the Spirit Realm[]

Yan Li was now trapped within the Umbra Realm with her sister. Together the two made use of the Umbra Energy to cultivate the Yin Yang Revolution Art. She managed to ascend to become a Deity Transformation cultivator after completing grasping the art. Soon after a Yin Wind randomly swept her and her sister into the Earth Abyss of the Spirit Realm[11].

While wandering through the abyss, Yan Li encountered the Ghost Matron - a Body Integration-stage demon monarch. She and her sister became the disciples of the Ghost Matron. However, the matron had sinister plans to consume the souls and Yin Energy of both Yan Li and her sister[12]. As a result, Yuan Yao began searching for ways to escape from the Ghost Matron.

Infernal River[]

Yan Li and her sister accompanied the Ghost Matron to a meeting with the other demon monarchs of the Earth Abyss[13]. Here she was surprised to see her sister react to Han Li who had been captured by another demon monarch for use in a plan to invade the Infernal River for rare cultivation resources. Later on she had a secret reunion with Han Li and learned of the fated encounters between her sister and Han Li. Together they plotted to escape the clutches of the demon monarchs in the Infernal River[14].

Yan Li entered the infernal river along with the demon army led by the demon monarchs. Shortly after entering, the demon army was ambushed by armored puppets that were remotely controlled by the Mayfly Race[15]. The infernal river was actually considered a holy realm by the Mayfly Race. Luckily, she encountered Han Li who protected her and her sister while they attempted to escape from the battle. Unfortunately, they escaped the battle only to encounter the two other demon monarchs that were at a stalemate with an army of armored puppets[16].

The demon monarchs defeated the armored puppets and proceeded to a Mayfly fortress that housed the Infernal River Elixir - a rare cultivation resources coveted by the monarchs. Yan Li's earlier attempt to flee with Han Li was noticed and before entering the fortress, the Ghost Matron used a talisman to place restrictions on both her and her sister[17]. Later on the Ghost Matron and other demon monarchs were preoccupied in a life-or-death struggle against powerful beasts within the fortress. In the midst of the chaos, she was rescued by Han Li and the restrictions were forcefully dissolved[18].

Together, Yan Li, her sister, and Han Li fled. She and her sister worked together to dissolve trackers placed unto Han Li by the other demon monarchs of the abyss[19]. After dissolving the trackers, the group fled further into the obscure regions of the Infernal River where they accidentally stumbled into the abode of Qing Yuanzi - a Grand Ascension stage cultivator who was once a member of the human race[20]. Her sister became an official disciple of Qing Yuanzi. As an official disciple, her sister managed to secure his assistance in helping Yan Li obtain a human body.
