Background / History

Chen Xuan established himself at the Holy Dragon Dojo, where he cultivated Spirit Herbs and Fruits, raised a growing collection of Phantasmal Beasts, and used functional beasts to maintain the grounds. His household includes beasts for cooking, cleaning, air purification, planting, security, tea service, and massage. 18 39 112

He became a respected figure in Holy Dragon Village by taming useful beasts for villagers, teaching children and adults about Phantasmal Beasts, and turning the dojo into a local learning center. He also cured Uncle Zheng’s long-standing curse and secretly saved Zhu Yan Hua in Violet Volcano Valley before treating her Ink Spirit Fire Affliction. 21 42 46 48

As his power grew, Chen Xuan began receiving faith from communities that viewed him as the Beast God or Desert Sage. He restored water and life to the Desert Dwellers’ homeland, gained the Desert Sage title through the Holy Altar, and later became connected to statues erected in his honor. 166 303 325

Appearance

Chen Xuan normally dresses plainly, though his bearing is repeatedly described as otherworldly and naturally imposing. When entering dangerous areas or fighting, he commonly Armorizes with Phantasmal Beasts, most notably appearing in black armor with red crystalline eye sockets. 81 617

• His black Armorized form is associated with the Dark Armored Dragon and the Killing Intent Fluctuation Monarch. 326 617
• Armorizing with the Holy Light Dragon produces full white, holy armor. 804
• His Beast God’s Blessing can give him crystalline skin, a faint glow, and an aura likened to a deity. 129

Personality

Chen Xuan prefers a quiet life at his dojo over fame or authority. He rejects offers that would pull him into ruling the world and initially refuses to involve himself in distant problems without knowing the circumstances or receiving compensation. 139 319

Despite this practicality, he consistently protects people he considers his own. He helps villagers, provides resources and instruction to younger Beast Masters, answers prayers conveyed through his statues, and personally responds when people close to Holy Dragon Village are endangered. 21 175 371 806

He remains calm in hostile or bizarre situations, from the Evil Spirit Mirror’s domain to the Hell Yin Spirit Flower’s attempt to consume his soul. He also treats genuine elders with courtesy, passing Hou Buping’s virtue trial through patience, humility, and trust. 69 747 781 782
