Background / History
Qian Xunji is a transmigrator from another world who awakened in the body of the comatose Holy Son, Qian Ji'er. The body had fallen unconscious after absorbing a Soul Ring from a 63,000-year-old Soul Beast, an undertaking beyond the normal limits of a level-70 Soul Sage. Upon awakening, he concealed the change and reassured his father, Qian Daoliu. 2
Though born with Martial Soul Hall's resources and the protection of a level-99 father, Qian Xunji recognized that his battle awareness, reactions, and practical combat ability were inadequate. He spent months studying in Martial Soul Hall's library and sparring with enshriners rather than relying on his family status. 7
Traveling under the name Qin Jian, he investigated Evil Soul Masters, rescued Jiang Hao after his village's massacre, and resolved to make Evil Soul Masters answer for their crimes. His later journeys earned him an unnamed reputation throughout the Soul Master world as the Swordsman in Black. 17 97
He entered the City of Slaughter as a Soul Saint to refine his abilities. There he retained his moral restraint amid pervasive violence, saved Man Yao twice, gained the Slaughter God's Domain, and acquired powerful Soul Bones after defeating Xue Tu. 24 30 34 130 426
Qian Xunji later completed the Guardian God Trial's First Trial in the Purple Bamboo Sword Forest, developing Bright Sword Intent and ultimately comprehending the Heart Sword. The trial granted him a God-Bestowed Soul Ring and set him on a path toward divine power. 133 134 136
After returning to Martial Soul Hall, he took Bibi Dong under his protection and guided her education and cultivation. Their bond eventually became romantic, and they had a daughter, Qian Renxue. 147 208 236 281

Qian Xunji is a tall, handsome man whose appearance becomes progressively younger and more divine after his Martial Soul evolutions. He commonly travels in black sword robes, though he is also associated with Martial Soul Hall's white ceremonial clothing. 2 75 103 104
- Golden hair and pale-golden eyes. 2 103

- His Dark Demon Evil God Tiger power can give his eyes a red glow and surround him with a domineering, tiger-like aura. 4
Personality
Qian Xunji is disciplined, self-reliant, and intensely committed to self-improvement. Despite being Qian Daoliu's son and having access to Martial Soul Hall's resources, he believes that personal strength—not inherited influence—is his greatest support. 7
He is protective of people he considers his own, repeatedly intervening against Evil Soul Masters and other threats to save Jiang Hao, Man Yao, Tang Yuehua, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Xu Ziming. 17 24 75 119 147 279 283
His mercy is selective. Qian Xunji condemns those who sacrifice others for power and can be ruthless toward enemies, especially Evil Soul Masters and those who threaten his family or allies. 34 75 119 234
Outside combat, he can be patient and gentle with Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, though his reserved nature sometimes makes him appear distant. 150 177 231 283
