Whenever he takes damage during a fight, one of the souls inside his stone will sacrifice itself to heal the wound, letting him regenerate from pretty much any wound as long as the stone has power. Regeneration: Due to Greed's Philosopher's Stone inside his body, Ling technically has multiple souls.This brought back Greed's memories, and convinced him to rebel against Father once more and help Ling and the Elrics with their goal of defeating him. That changed when Greed killed a chimera named Bido, who also happened to be friends with the original Greed. This Greed lacked the memories of the original, and was loyal to Father as a result. This turned Ling into a human-based Homunculus, with the soul of the Homunculus known as Greed taking over his body. The creator, known only as Father, decided Ling could make a good pawn, and implanted the Philosopher's Stone of a Homunculus who rebelled against him inside of Ling's body. During his time following the brothers around, Ling found himself involved with the Homunculi, immortal beings created through alchemy that the Elrics had been hunting, and decided to help the two with their goal of killing the Homunculi in hopes that it'd help him discover the secret to their immortality.Įventually, Ling and the Elrics found themselves in the lair of the Homunculi, along with their creator. As such, he told the two about his goal and asked for there assistance. While in the town of Rush Valley, Ling met Edward and Alphonse Elric, two alchemists who knew far more about the Philosopher's Stone than Ling did. Hoping to find the Philosopher's Stone, Ling and two of his family's vassals set off for the western country of Amestris. Ling discovered the legend of the Philosopher's Stone, alchemical amplifiers that can grant someone immortality. He began studying the Xingese art of Alkahestry, the art of manipulating matter, which eventually led him to Alkahestry's western counterpart, alchemy. When the emperor's health began to deteriorate, the competition for the crown became much more severe, and Ling began planning for a way to survive and become ruler of Xing. During his youth, he was constantly in mortal danger, with Xing's shaky succession situations putting him under constant threat of assassination from other clans hoping to inherit the throne. Ling Yao is the twelfth crown prince of the eastern nation of Xing.
