Background / History

I Want to Become Immortal entered the game determined to find a way to resurrect his deceased brother. He spent heavily on equipment before leaving the beginner village, but insisted that he would begin cautiously against weak monsters. His brother's strategy guide continued to shape his decisions, leading him to grind safe low-level enemies rather than immediately seek dangerous adventures. 14 20

Although he originally intended to pursue immortality through Spirituality and Daoist cultivation, his early combat development pushed him toward a physical front-line role. He wielded axes, wore increasingly heavy armor, raised his Strength, and trained defensive combat skills. Even after this apparent deviation from his dream, he maintained that becoming an Immortal was the only way to bring his brother back. 43 48 96

He joined Profound Void Palace as a menial worker and trained by performing chores while fighting demons and monsters. He failed to learn Daoist Arts Basics, but a True Person recognized that his talents lay in battlefield combat and demon-slaying. This ultimately led to his Level 20 advancement as a Yellow Turban Strongman. 229 233

At Level 30, he chose the Guardian Giant Spirit path despite its requirement to preserve a Pure Yang Body. The decision left him anxious over the potential loss of romantic and sexual relationships, but he accepted refinement after Xiao Jie suggested that the restriction might apply only to his in-game body. 420 421 422

By the Netherworld war, he had died and become a dispersed energy-like soul body held together by Incense Vows and specialized armor. He began pursuing a divine path based on faith offerings, hoping to gather enough worship to condense a stable Divine Body and eventually receive a Divine Position. 550 551 573 580

Appearance

His appearance changes sharply with his equipment, Strength-focused development, and posthumous spiritual state.

• Initially wore thick leather armor, leather boots, and a horned leather helmet to avoid the weight penalty of iron equipment. 14
• Later became a heavy-armored axe-and-shield fighter, including a Heavy Infantry Armor Set with 120 Toughness and 240 physical defense. 266
• In reality, his Strength investment transformed him into a bald, tattooed, heavily muscled man with a bodybuilder-like build. 401
• After death, removing his Soul-Suppressing Helmet reveals a vague humanoid mass of golden-flecked energy with a condensed spark of spiritual light at its center. 551
• Golden talisman runes appear on his arms, chest, and forehead when using Talisman Imprinted Body. 233

Personality

I Want to Become Immortal is intensely determined, emotionally direct, and deeply attached to his goal of reviving his brother. He remains convinced that immortality and resurrection must be possible even when Xiao Jie points out that no confirmed resurrection spell has appeared in years. 14 43

He is eager for battle and tends to charge forward recklessly despite only average combat mechanics. Xiao Jie consequently treats him as a front-line fighter who needs structured guidance, stronger defenses, and sufficient Toughness before facing major bosses. 248

Despite his impulsiveness, he can learn from others and occasionally shows sharp reasoning. He follows Xiao Jie's advice on attributes and strategy, correctly identifies contradictions in Granny Li's story, and trusts Xiao Jie completely when offered a risky path toward divinity. 48 135 551
