Background / History

Bi Changsheng was originally a private detective from Earth. After transmigrating into the body of the Bi Family’s young master, he awoke in the family ancestral home to learn that the Bi Family had been exterminated, its property divided among the Zhao Family, Sun Family, and local yamen, and that he himself was wanted on charges of colluding with demonic sects 1.

He inherited the Longevity Dao Fruit, which granted immortality but not invulnerability. Recognizing that survival still required strength, he resolved to live until the end of time and control his own fate 1. His cultivation accelerated through Life-Spending Cultivation: techniques that consumed lifespan could be used with far less restraint because of his inexhaustible longevity 2 10.

After killing Tian Dazhuang and Ding San, he began eliminating threats connected to the destruction of the Bi Family and used their deaths to provoke conflict between the Sun and Zhao families 5. He later destroyed Renxin Hall, obtained the forbidden art Jade Burn, and accumulated the wealth and medicinal resources needed to sustain further cultivation 8 10.

To conceal his rapid rise, Bi Changsheng acted under the identity Ximen Xue. This persona became famous across Great Gan after he killed Condensing Gang Realm experts, while Bi himself remained focused on cultivation rather than fame 49 56 128.

He entered the Golden Sun Sect as an inner disciple at age twenty, deliberately displaying Foundation Establishment cultivation to secure notice and safety within the sect 143. His advancement earned him True Disciple status, Purple Bamboo Peak, and increasing recognition as one of the Southern Border’s most dangerous cultivators 280 383.

Following the decline of the Great Sun Empire, Bi Changsheng established the Great Xia Empire, unified the Southern Border, and used National Destiny seals rather than personally linking himself to National Destiny 631 632. He later promoted the Martial Way throughout the empire, allowing martial arts academies, manuals, and new Aperture Opening methods to proliferate 633.

Appearance

Bi Changsheng’s appearance remained fixed from the day of his transmigration, even after years of cultivation 56.

  • Bright eyes, white teeth, and handsome features 2.
  • Carries the graceful bearing of a young nobleman 2.
  • His youthful appearance became less conspicuous after he entered the cultivation world, where Foundation Establishment cultivators can delay or reverse aging 128.
  • When using the Forging Ash Thunder Art, he is surrounded by blue lightning arcs and likened to a thunder god 166.

Personality

Bi Changsheng is pragmatic, guarded, and intensely survival-oriented. His first priority after transmigration is not immediate revenge but ensuring that he has enough power to survive future threats 1 12. He consistently conceals his true strength, gathers intelligence before acting, and avoids unnecessary risks—even when he is capable of overwhelming his opponents 7 34 138.

He is also ruthless toward enemies he considers future dangers. He killed Tian Dazhuang and Ding San rather than leave potential threats alive, showed no mercy to Renxin Hall’s guards, and later tortured captured enemies through the Five Elements Great Array while settling old grievances 5 8 539.

Despite this severity, Bi Changsheng cares for those loyal to him. He supports Uncle Fu’s health, teaches Liu Zhengqing martial arts, provides him cultivation resources, and repeatedly protects or aids his companions 6 107 216 662. He prefers seclusion and repeatedly refuses political prominence, including an invitation to lead a new Great Gan dynasty 56 88 120.
