Background
Bai Chen was an ordinary college student before he missed a step on his dormitory stairs and arrived in another world as a mass of shadow. With only his system to rely on, he survived for a year in the Dark Forest by devouring Slimes. His growing resemblance to a black Slime also helped conceal his Demon God identity 1.
Jiang Ruoxue summoned him at an awakening ceremony but rejected and kicked him after seeing his Slime form. Lin Luoluo then offered him a home; Bai Chen accepted and chose an equal contract with her rather than a servant contract 1 2 3.
Appearance
Bai Chen has no fixed physical form and commonly presents himself as a black, jelly-like Slime 3 9.
- Slime form: A smooth, springy black body from which he can extend tentacles 5 9.
- Shadow form: A mass of pure shadow that can blend into dark surroundings 11.
- Throne form: A pitch-black throne with tentacles and flowing golden energy patterns, shaped to seat Lin Luoluo securely 25.
Personality
Bai Chen is affectionate and protective toward Lin Luoluo and Chuchu. He values the warmth of their family life after his isolation in the forest, and vows to help Chuchu receive treatment and heal Luoluo’s legs 9 10.
His time in the forest also made him calculating and vengeful. He waits for opportunities to strike and responds ruthlessly to threats against the sisters, although he does not generally consider himself someone who delights in killing 3 11 41.
Abilities & Skills
Devouring Authority
As a Devouring Demon God, Bai Chen can obtain other creatures’ abilities by devouring them or their Source Crystals 1 12.
- Further devouring or spending Devouring Points can increase progress toward an ability; his Complete Devouring Chance instantly maximized Moon Ice Domain 4.
- He can use Source Crystals as nourishment to improve an existing ability’s progress and potentially raise it beyond its original rank 13.
- At First Tier, he had three ability slots; reaching Second Tier unlocked another 12 13.
Shadow Tentacles
His S-rank shadow ability, also called Shadow Touch, gives his otherwise formless body a physical form and versatile tentacles 1 4.
- He uses tentacles to strike, restrain and shield opponents, as well as carry and support Lin Luoluo 3 7 25.
- He can combine them with Hard Skin or ice to improve their offensive power 4 20.
- Controlling many tentacles while using Hard Skin consumes substantial Star Energy; covering his whole body with Hard Skin also takes time 24.
Moon Ice Domain
An S-rank ability acquired from the Cold Moon Fox, Moon Ice Domain creates extreme cold around Bai Chen 4.
- At First Tier, it lets him create frost, ice spikes and walls, while slowing and damaging enemies within the domain 4.
- He can imbue his body or tentacles with ice to increase their hardness and penetrating power. Its degree of control depends on his mental strength 4.
- Because the ability is recognizable as the fox’s, Bai Chen regards public use as a risk to his secrecy 12.
Hard Skin
Hard Skin is a D-rank defensive ability acquired from the Shatterrock Hound. It consumes energy to create a rock-textured protective layer 12 13.
- Bai Chen selected it over Scorpion Poison because he feared a poison ability might make him dangerous to Lin Luoluo 12.
- He hardens his tentacles for attacks and uses the ability defensively against incoming strikes 20 46.
Tentacle Throne
Lin Luoluo awakened this S-rank Life Skill during the assessment. Bai Chen synchronized with it, allowing him to transform into her throne and activate the skill independently 25 36.
- In this form, moves with a casting windup are released twice as fast, and attack power is tripled 25.
- Tentacle length and diameter have no fixed upper limit in the skill description; their maximum size depends on the master’s Star Energy reserves 25.
- Bai Chen can draw on his own reserves when Lin Luoluo’s Star Energy is nearly exhausted 39.
Shadow Recovery and Energy
Bai Chen can absorb environmental energy and slowly recover from injuries in darkness. His contract also lets him communicate with Lin Luoluo through a mental link and draw on her Star Energy in battle 6 9 24.
- He recovered after the Crystal Scorpion King’s projectile pierced his body 24 25.
- Severed tentacles do not cause him pain, although a sufficiently powerful opponent can cut them 48.
Relationships
- Lin Luoluo — His equal-contract partner and family. He carries her after her wheelchair breaks, encourages her ambitions and helps her fight 3 7 25.
- Lin Chuchu — Luoluo’s younger sister. Initially frightened of Bai Chen, she comes to trust him; he seeks a Contract Spirit that might help treat her illnesses 9 14 34.
- Jiang Ruoxue — His summoner and antagonist. She rejected him, sought to kill him after his contract with Luoluo, and later faced him in a duel 1 3 46 48.
- Kalina — Initially an opponent in a dispute over Netherworld Grass. She later protects Luoluo during the Jiang Family confrontation, earning Bai Chen’s respect 35 36 48 49.
- Liu De — The town chief who assessed Bai Chen at the summoning and later defended Luoluo when spectators questioned Bai Chen’s tentacles 1 24.
Story Role
Contract and assessment
After contracting with Luoluo, Bai Chen defeats Jiang Ruoxue’s Cold Moon Fox and protects Luoluo from its attack. He later kills two Jiang Family underlings who approach the sisters’ home and acquires Hard Skin from a fallen Contract Spirit’s Source Crystal 3 12 13.
During Luoluo’s sabotaged Contract Spirit Master assessment, Bai Chen fights through the mine and survives the Crystal Scorpion King’s attack. Together, they awaken Tentacle Throne and defeat the king; Luoluo completes the assessment with an SSS-rank evaluation. Bai Chen asks her to conceal his true strength afterward 20 24 25 26 28.
Forest Grotto
After Chuchu’s condition worsens, Bai Chen and Luoluo enter the Forest Grotto to earn money, grow stronger and find a Contract Spirit for her. They fight Kalina over Netherworld Grass, then confront Jiang Family Contract Spirit Masters. Bai Chen kills two of the men on Luoluo’s order and finds a Spirit-Capturing Box that may hold an S-rank Space-Type Contract Spirit 34 36 41 42.
Following his Second Tier breakthrough, Bai Chen defeats Jiang Ruoxue in a duel. When Jiang Chutian intervenes and attacks Luoluo, Kalina blocks the strike. Kalina later gives Luoluo a Storage Ring containing Demon materials and crystals as thanks for helping her family obtain a Dawnlight Academy shop 43 48 50.
