Background / History
Li Qi has repeatedly reincarnated across different worlds while retaining his soul, memories, and selected abilities. In an early recorded life, he became a successful musician through exceptional hearing but died of cancer at eighteen. In the next, he used a body-sensing Superpower to become a regional Gambling King and Heavenly King before dying in a car accident at nineteen. 2
In the Magic World, he regained his memories at twelve after losing his family to war. He joined the Duchy of Uno Army early to avoid later conscription, gain access to magic training, and avoid remaining expendable cannon fodder. By thirteen, he was a Sergeant commanding a four-person squad and had earned the title “Wolf of Mien.” 2
His later lives repeatedly reinforced his fear that exceptional Talent attracts the hostility of each world. Magic Overload Syndrome filled his body with Magic Power and steadily consumed his vitality, prompting him to leave behind alchemical research and make arrangements for his death. 91 102 104
Appearance
Li Qi’s appearance varies substantially because he is an expert in masks, bone alteration, shape-shifting, and full physical transformation. His undisguised form has pure white hair and an exceptionally beautiful, finely sculpted face; his later Dao Rhyme and Heart of Love further intensify others’ perception of his beauty. 559 647 653
- Has used long dark-gold hair and feminine noble attire while posing as “Miss Angela.” 44
- Can alter facial structure, skin tone, body shape, and even Demon Transformation traits. 243 300 480
- Has been described with red or pink eyes in later incarnations and disguises. 482 530
- Often uses veils, masks, makeup, or deliberately plainer features to avoid recognition and unwanted attention. 35 484 647
Personality
Li Qi is analytical, guarded, and relentlessly focused on understanding power systems. He studies unfamiliar energy, cultivation methods, relics, and mechanisms with the same intensity regardless of the world he enters. His tendency to judge situations through utility makes him pragmatic, secretive, and capable of manipulating opponents when necessary. 119 199 253
Repeated separation and death made him deliberately emotionally detached. He once treated occult research as a substitute for human connection, fearing that attachment would only make each reincarnation more painful. Carol warned him that this detachment could cost him his humanity. 143 177
Despite this, Li Qi gradually develops strong bonds with his family, disciples, and companions. Ronnie’s death, his concern for Li Qiao, and his determination to survive beyond twenty for his family demonstrate that he remains driven by both reason and emotion. 181 296 326

Undying Heart Scripture
Li Qi’s signature seven-layer cultivation method combines the Exquisite Heart Scripture, his knowledge of healing magic, and his ability to create cultivation systems. Its purpose is to create a method that can function across worlds. 199 211
- First Layer — strengthens skin, flesh, tendons, bones, organs, recovery, and physical flexibility; encompasses the Postnatal Realm. 199 230

- Its effect differs by relationship; some men develop elder-to-younger affection, while women are more likely to develop romantic attraction. 516
- Cannot immediately overcome strong negative feelings or entrenched hostility. 591
- Its influence can affect Li Qi’s own mental state, including narcissistic impulses, when his Consciousness Power is insufficient. 569
Creator Authority
Upon attaining the Seventh Tier, Li Qi inherited a Tenth-Tier Expert’s legacy and Authority over the creation of life and souls. 647
- The Authority is described as the power of a Creator. 647
- The inheritance also revealed the approaching Collapse, leaving Li Qi temporarily despairing over the fate of the world. 647

Story Role / Major Arcs
Magic World
At thirteen, Li Qi fought on the Mien Frontline as the Wolf of Mien. He mastered Magic Entanglement in combat, rose through the military, and later entered Inglis under the disguised identity “Kili,” where a Crystal Ball revealed seven-color, exceptional Magic Talent. 2 7 54
His pursuit of puppet alchemy pushed his Magic Power beyond safe limits. Magic Overload Syndrome steadily consumed his life, leading him to leave research and preparations behind for those he considered home. 102 104
Mist World
After entering a world of Ruins Treasures and Mist Zones, Li Qi identified Relic Energy as the Qi used by Mist Explorers. He gained notoriety after killing the Red-Winged Bird, a Level Two Mist Zone overlord, before formally understanding the concept of Qi. 109 117
He later destroyed Sin Prison, lost Ronnie, confronted Number One and Number Five’s opposing definitions of humanity, and left the world afterward. 177 181 196
Martial World
Reborn as Li Wenxin and Zheng Qiuqing’s son, Li Qi became one of Ingenious Manor’s Dragon-Phoenix Twins alongside Li Qiao. Unable to use most of his former magic, he created the Undying Heart Scripture and used talismans, mechanisms, and copied martial techniques to investigate demons and the Holy Cult. 196 199 216
His battle with Qian Yude completed the first stage of the Scripture and propelled him into the Innate Realm. His ranking, mechanisms, and unusual cultivation attracted the attention of the Six Great Sects, whom he repeatedly deceived, outmaneuvered, or resisted. 221 222 225 237
He eventually survived Lightning Tribulation, broke the twenty-year curse through Phoenix Bloodline Nirvana, and became a Martial Saint. He later served Yu as Imperial Advisor, watched his family and descendants age, and died peacefully after leaving behind a Doll replica. 328 331 333
Later Worlds
As Meng An, Li Qi recovered his memories and rebuilt his abilities in a technologically advanced, contaminated world. He gained Player Qualification, reached Level 120, and chose to leave a final gift for humanity before departing. 336 459
In a later interstellar life, he re-cultivated the Undying Heart Scripture, became a Fourth-Tier Mechanic, and began integrating magic, martial arts, alchemy, and consciousness cultivation into a unified system. 479 492 501 598
He ultimately entered the Cangxuan World, reached Seventh-Tier True Immortal cultivation, inherited the Authority to create life and souls, and set out with Art to see the world before the predicted Collapse. 646 647
