Background / History
Ye Chen spent his youth in the Blazing Sun Holy Land, while his father sent him dozens of books containing knowledge from Blue Star in the hope that he would grow sensible and principled. His martial skills and combat ability were already exceptional by the Spirit Condensation Realm. 22 48
Unlike his more homebound siblings, Ye Chen repeatedly ventured out to seek secret realms, make friends, and hunt for opportunities. His unusual fortune frequently led him to rare treasures, though his father restricted his early travels to Jiang State for safety. 60
During one expedition, Ye Chen found an Inheritance Secret Realm and spent two years returning to Jiang State to deliver an Earth Grade sabre technique to his father, along with other gains from the realm. He later received deeper instruction in Thousand Mountains Twilight Snow. 86
Ye Chen eventually became Qingyun Daoist's successor. Qingyun Daoist selected him after hundreds of prior entrants died in the inheritance trials, judging Ye Chen's luck and talent sufficient; Ye Chen received treasures and three secret techniques centered on defense, qi observation, and deduction. 211
After establishing himself in the Upper Realm, Ye Chen continued exploring and cultivating while developing into a talisman specialist. His ascent to the Mysterious Immortal Realm drew Chen Daozhi's attention, forcing his father to conceal him from hostile divination. 486
Appearance
Ye Chen inherited his father’s exceptionally handsome features. In the Upper Realm, however, his looks were described as better than most rather than uniquely striking. 388
- Possesses the Edict Divine Eye, one of the Eight Divine Eyes. 312
- Later manifested the top-tier Wood Origin Reincarnation Body, which preserves memories and enlightenment through reincarnation. 1128
- His bone structure improved from Saint Grade High Grade to a Fourth-grade Immortal Bone. 538
Personality
Ye Chen is adventurous, sociable, and restless. He prefers traveling, secret-realm exploration, and learning from a wide circle of companions over remaining at home in prolonged closed-door cultivation. 60 926
He is generous and magnanimous with younger cultivators, earning natural support among the younger generation of the Cold Palace. His upbringing and abundant resources have made him free-spending, though he does not squander the items his family gives him. 1215 1216
Despite his confidence, Ye Chen can reflect on failure. Intensive sparring after his Golden Immortal breakthrough stripped away his arrogance, and later defeats taught him the gap between himself and genuine powerhouses. 601 1700

Story Role / Major Arcs
Qingyun Daoist's Inheritance
Ye Chen entered Qingyun Daoist’s lethal Inheritance Secret Realm, survived the trials that killed hundreds of predecessors, and was accepted as Qingyun Daoist’s successor.

Rise as a Talisman Master

A trusted acquaintance lured Ye Chen into a Witch Tribe border secret realm, where he was besieged by demons and pursued by Moro's True Demon Clone.
