Background

Xi Shenlian was abandoned near a temple west of an orphanage and named by the orphanage director, who found him “like a delicate jade carving.” His name was chosen for its association with the western temple and his pitiful circumstances. 2

During childhood, he experienced hallucinations, heard nonexistent sounds, and occasionally spoke in phrases others could not understand. These episodes caused others to regard him as mentally unstable; he developed an inferiority complex and refused adoption. 2

He was one of the few children treated kindly by Takeoka Seiichiro, whom he later visited at his grave. Xi Shenlian promised to look after Takeoka’s family in some fashion, reflecting the loyalty he reserves for the very small number of people he considers his own. 34 35

At eighteen, Xi Shenlian awakened as an Awakened and received the Life Winner System—Luxury Supreme Custom Edition. His awakening cured the mental issues he associated with his childhood and initiated rapid physical evolution. 4 20 35

Appearance

Xi Shenlian’s awakening transformed him from a handsome but unusual youth into an increasingly inhumanly perfect lifeform. His appearance continues to become more ethereal as his strength rises. 21 539

  • Perfectly proportioned, fair-skinned physique with flawless, dense musculature. 21
  • Measured 185 cm tall and 210 jin after his early evolution; despite his weight, he appeared lean because of his abnormal body density. 21
  • Deep purple hair and matching purple eyes. 21
  • Narrow vertical pupils that give him a field of vision beyond normal human limits. 21
  • His presence and beauty can evoke instinctive awe even in nonhuman beings with entirely different aesthetic standards. 681
  • Commonly suppresses the more oppressive or seductive effects of his evolved nature to avoid disrupting daily life. 367 539

Personality

Xi Shenlian is radically self-centered. He considers his own will the only legitimate basis for action and rejects any superior’s authority over him. He is indifferent to conventional morality, nationality, and the welfare of strangers, but intensely protective of the few people he recognizes as close to him. 92 152 365 889

His confidence is not presented as aspiration but certainty: he views standing at the top of the food chain as his natural place. This certainty makes him calm even before powerful Awakened, while his lack of concern for most matters leaves him unusually difficult to provoke. 95 262

Despite his arrogance and frequent lechery, he is often lazy rather than actively malicious. He prefers an easy, entertaining life, avoids responsibility when possible, and suppresses much of his overwhelming power so that life retains some novelty. 107 343 458 788

Xi Shenlian is direct to the point of impropriety, openly judges others by appearance, and often treats dangerous situations as entertainment. He nevertheless shows patience toward his companions, empowering them gradually rather than forcing their growth. 106 343 473

Abilities & Skills

Unrestrained

Xi Shenlian’s highest-form innate strength. It grants automatic, unrestricted growth without training, tempering, or conventional prerequisites. 144 364 788

  • Continually increases his power through ordinary activity and combat. 144
  • Possesses characteristics of Infinite Energy, allowing limitless strengthening without prerequisites. 788
  • Can be voluntarily suppressed because Xi Shenlian considers unchecked growth detrimental to a normal life. 788
  • Its system evaluation surpasses even the ultimate power of Absolute First Strike. 364

Perfect Nature

An Innate Talent that evolved beyond his former Awakened Innate Wisdom. It provides instinctive judgment, perception, and combat foresight. 21

  • Instinctively judges situations and detects details such as whether an object is edible. 21 144
  • Anticipates enemy attacks without relying on sight or hearing. 143 144
  • Identifies another person’s health, defensive weaknesses, cultivation methods, and bodily advantages through observation. 153
  • Allows him to perceive gradual changes in those affected by the Elixir of Immortality. 196

Absolute First Strike

Xi Shenlian’s Supernatural Ability automatically identifies hostility, attacks, and negative influences as targets for a prior counterattack. It operates without conscious effort and is capable of affecting tangible, intangible, living, and nonliving targets. 161 162

  • A selected target must endure Xi Shenlian’s strike before attacking him; the target cannot dodge it. 161
  • Can strike multiple targets simultaneously, choose specific weak points, and avoid collateral damage if Xi Shenlian wishes. 161
  • Can treat bullets, sunlight, verbal attacks, schemes, light, and hostile intent as valid targets. 162
  • Can access and attack past events or realities, though Xi Shenlian avoids casually altering the past because of unforeseeable consequences. 162 184
  • Can “counterattack” abstract conditions such as weakness, recovery limits, or inadequate vision to enhance himself. 185
  • Prevents aging and grants him immortality. 162

Physical Evolution and Combat Adaptation

His body developed beyond ordinary human logic shortly after awakening, with enhanced bones, musculature, membrane-like protective structures, and internal energy comparable to Inner Force or Battle Qi. 20

  • Can crush air with his grip and use internal energy to influence airflow. 20
  • Can consume metal and glass to absorb trace elements. 21
  • Does not require normal breathing through his mouth or nose. 21
  • Flies through speed and energy control rather than a dedicated flight ability. 40
  • Learns and reproduces advanced martial techniques after minimal exposure. 112 113 153
  • Habitually restrains his physical output to avoid crushing people or damaging his surroundings. 144

Divine Visage

A suppressed ability that emerged by the Self Stage. When intentionally revealed, Xi Shenlian’s presence can overwhelm an observer’s mind. 367

  • Can induce fear, reverence, charm, or worship in anyone who sees him, including through images or video. 367
  • Can alter personalities or erase consciousness if used without restraint. 367
  • Normally remains suppressed so that he can interact with others normally. 367

Spacetime and Reality Authority

As his life level rises, Xi Shenlian gains increasing authority over spacetime, physical laws, and reality itself. 364 669

  • Can enter a special region beyond the ordinary three-dimensional material world. 364
  • Can reshape reality with thought and develop an exclusive spacetime that serves as an infinite internal space and shield. 669
  • Can freeze time within a spacetime and read its full history, inhabitants, and thoughts. 679
  • Can alter environments on a celestial scale, including planets’ atmospheres, gravity, and geological conditions. 486

Restoration and Resurrection

Xi Shenlian can restore life and bodily condition on an extraordinary scale. 364 365 373

  • Resurrected two people for Qian Shan Xuehui. 365
  • Revived the severely injured Xingdaosi Tangben and returned him home. 373
  • Can grant immortality directly through Absolute First Strike, though he sometimes uses System items instead. 196

  • Eternal Victor — A dormant power accessed through his Ability Armor, causing circumstances and phenomena to converge toward his victory. 533
