Ji Nineteen
Ji Nineteen is a Ji Clan expert who attacks Meng Hao through karma, only to be defeated, imprisoned, and used as a source of Soul Blood.
Biography
Karmic confrontation
Ji Nineteen confronts Meng Hao under the authority of the Ji Clan and invokes Karmic Severing. The attack does not merely strike the body. It tears across body, consciousness, and soul by acting on the target’s karmic connections, making the clash a contest over identity and causality as much as cultivation. Meng Hao recognizes the danger and answers with the accumulated power of his blood-colored resources and wooden Immortal Murdering Swords. (Chapters 424–425)
The wooden swords wound and restrict Ji Nineteen while Meng Hao uses the three-streamer flag against him. Four swords ultimately cripple his resistance; poison and sealing measures prevent recovery. Ji Nineteen identifies the flag as the Mountain and Sea Emperor’s Banner, revealing knowledge of ancient inheritances even as he loses possession of it. Meng Hao binds him within the blood-colored mask rather than killing him. (Chapter 427)
Captivity in the blood mask
Ji Nineteen remains a prisoner for roughly two years. The wooden swords continue to suppress his recovery, the Li Clan Patriarch functions as a jailer inside the mask, and the meat jelly’s presence adds a humiliating form of torment. Meng Hao occasionally loosens the binding connected to the banner when using it, but never restores Ji Nineteen’s freedom. (Chapters 431, 457 and 482)
When Meng Hao needs Soul Blood for a clone, Ji Nineteen initially refuses to cooperate and withholds explanations about karma. Meng Hao’s threat and control over the prison eventually force out a drop. Extracting it is difficult even from Ji Nineteen’s weakened state, which demonstrates the density of his soul and cultivation. His knowledge also helps establish the significance of primordial blood used in the clone. The supplied text does not show his release or death after the extraction. (Chapters 482–485)
Appearance and personality
The text emphasizes Ji Nineteen’s ancient bearing and clan authority rather than a detailed physical portrait. He is proud, knowledgeable, and resistant under prolonged captivity. Defeat does not make him forthcoming: he refuses to explain his karmic art and yields Soul Blood only under coercion. That stubbornness preserves some agency even when Meng Hao controls his body, treasures, and prison.
Abilities and cultivation
Karmic Severing
Karmic Severing attacks the links that bind a person to others and to the world. In Ji Nineteen’s use, the effect reaches Meng Hao’s body, consciousness, and soul at once, and can transmit consequences through connected karma. This makes ordinary physical defense insufficient. Its danger lies in bypassing a simple exchange of magical force and treating relationships themselves as the path of attack.
Ancient cultivation and resistance
Ji Nineteen’s cultivation is high enough that multiple Immortal Murdering Swords, poison, and a dedicated prison are used to keep him weak. Even after years of suppression, drawing out one drop of Soul Blood requires substantial force. His endurance does not allow him to escape, but it prevents Meng Hao from treating him as an ordinary captured cultivator.
Karmic and primordial knowledge
He recognizes the Mountain and Sea Emperor’s Banner and understands the significance of primordial blood. This knowledge is practical: it helps explain why his Soul Blood can be incorporated into clone-related work and why his karmic lineage remains valuable to Meng Hao after the battle is over.
