Supplementary details on Yu Qing's strength, Spirit Abilities, and chants.
Yu Qing's current approximate power:
At Rank 96, without the Star Burning Battle Method, he possesses absolute suppressive force against Titled Douluo of the same Rank—slightly stronger than Sword Douluo Chen Xin—and can tie down a 97th-Rank Titled Douluo.
At Rank 96, activating the Star Burning Battle Method produces a qualitative shift in every attribute; his spirit power reaches a level comparable to a 98th-Rank Super Douluo, all self-created Spirit Abilities double in might, and the Sunken Abyss Star Extinguishing Slash attains divine-technique power.
First Spirit: Gold-veined Purple Leaf
First Spirit Ability—restores injuries/spirit power to full: "Vibrant Vitality · Purple Sun Leaf!" Four-character effect plus leaf name (3,000 years).
Second Spirit Ability—strengthens mental force/purges negative effects: "Crystal-Clear Mind · Lotus Leaf!" "Crystal-Clear Mind" refers to the Spirit; the lotus symbolizes purification (5,700 years).
Third Spirit Ability—dual burst of strength and spirit power: "Dragon-Elephant Might · Sky-Holding Leaf!" "Dragon-Elephant" conveys force, "Sky-Holding" denotes explosive power (10,600 years).
Fourth Spirit Ability—stamina reinforcement plus mental force boost: "Sound in Body and Qi · Moon-Lotus Leaf!" The phrase covers both stamina and Spirit; Moon-Lotus echoes the Spirit attribute (24,000 years).
Fifth Spirit Ability—brings the dead to life and re-grows flesh and bone (stimulates the fountain of life): "Endless Vitality · Blue-Silver Leaf!" "Endless Vitality" points directly to the Power of Life, backed by Blue Silver Grass's vitality (50,000 years).
Sixth Spirit Ability—doubles physique plus golden-body shield: "Unbreakable Golden Lotus Leaf!" "Indestructible" matches the physique, "unbreakable" highlights the shield (72,300 years).
Seventh Spirit Ability—Martial Soul True Body · Life Domain: "Leaves Guard the Living—True Form Reveal!" A seven-syllable chant for solemnity and to stress the Life Domain's range (100,000 years). PS: the Life Domain cannot be activated on its own; Martial Soul True Body must be used.
Eighth Spirit Ability—ultra-rapid regeneration plus presence dampening: "Formless Nirvana · Glass Leaf!" "Formless" expresses concealment, "Nirvana" signifies rebirth, Glass Leaf denotes transparent energy (100,000 years). PS: when the body is intact, the formless effect is preferred, granting extreme stealth—undetectable to anyone under 99th-Rank. If the body is mutilated or suffers critical damage (e.g. half the body gone), ultra-rapid regeneration takes priority (requires heart and brain intact).
Ninth Spirit Ability—invincible defense plus deathless force: "Eternal Through the Ages · Green-Lotus Leaf!" "Eternal" matches immortality, Green-Lotus traces back to creation (180,000 years). PS: the user may choose either invincible defense or deathless force; can be taken ten times within a month, but the ability then fails for the next six months.
Four Forms of Star Shattering: close-range, power-type self-created Spirit Ability. Form One is absolute force eruption; Form Two resembles the Eight Collapse Blast, implanting hidden force; Form Three burns stellar power, channeling explosive energy directly into the body for inside-out destruction; Form Four combines force, hidden force, and explosive power like a rainbow piercing the sun. Within two major Realms of Yu Qing it is almost invariably lethal upon contact (for Titled Douluo and above, two Ranks).
Star Flash: uses stellar force to forcibly construct a rather unstable spatial wormhole with a range under one kilometre; unless the opponent is a spatial-type of equal Rank, it cannot be interrupted or detected.
Star Luo Hand: a Seal-and-suppress self-created Spirit Ability, akin to acupoint strikes but carrying a Seal effect. Against an opponent of equal Rank, suppression lasts a full half-minute; the effect weakens as the foe's Rank increases.
Sunken Abyss Star Extinguishing Slash: releases all stellar force, sublimating Saber Intent to the utmost, drawing myriad stars to resonate, and delivers a single slash of annihilation and ruin. Domineering beyond compare, it guarantees death against those of equal Rank; under the Star Burning Battle Method its might is comparable to a divine technique.
Star Burning Battle Method: ignites the stellar core within, burning stellar force to boost spirit power, physique, strength, speed, and attributes across the board. Prerequisite: condense a stellar core and store stellar force. It offers no noticeable increase to spirit power cultivation; the more stellar force stored, the longer the method lasts. Usage demands extreme physique and spirit power quality. Drawback: the longer it runs, the heavier the bodily strain. Even with Yu Qing's current condition, it cannot exceed one hour.
Note: all of Yu Qing's self-created Spirit Abilities and secret arts require stellar force and do not increase spirit power cultivation, only providing a modest combat boost.
