Background / History
Qin Jishi was a celebrated Qin Family prodigy in childhood: he breathed in Qi at three, entered the Profound Realm at five, and reached the Earth Fiend Realm at eight. Major powers compared his potential to Ancestor Xuanyuan. His rise ended after he was accused of poisoning Qin Tian; the Qin Family crippled his cultivation and expelled him. 81 211
He later lived in Soaring Dragon City and became engaged to Zhang Shiqing. He initially concealed both his Profound Energy and his capabilities, allowing others to mistake him for an ordinary, spineless live-in son-in-law. When Liu Kai demanded that he end the engagement and kneel, Qin Jishi exploited the moment to break Liu Kai's arm and humiliate him. 5 10
While posing as a Menial Laborer, Qin Jishi earned the protection of the Hundred Beasts Sect, Medicine King Valley, and Myriad Treasures Tower. His true status as the Young Pavilion Master of the World-Saving Pavilion was revealed after he returned there, explaining the influence and caution surrounding him. 73 214 249
His conflict with the Qin Family escalated into a campaign of revenge. He killed Cui Xionghai, absorbed Qin An and Qin Peng to advance his cultivation, and later fought the Myriad Poisons King, Qin Tian, and Qin Shutu. His victories made him renowned throughout the Black and White Domain. 213 245 246 560 647
In the Upper Realm, Qin Jishi became Hall Master of the Xuanyuan Divine Sect's newly established Jishi Hall. He subsequently won the Divine Son Competition, survived an unprecedented Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation of nine divine thunders, and became the Heaven and Earth Divine Son. 915 1259 1332
