Background

Chu Feng transmigrated to the Southern Desolate Realm and spent a month isolated in a forest of ferocious beasts. Although he initially sought a reclusive master from whom to learn martial arts, he instead found a thatched cottage and later encountered Xiao Huohuo—the first living person he had seen since arriving. 1 2

When Xiao Huohuo mistook him for a hidden expert and requested apprenticeship, Chu Feng’s Tenfold Return System activated. The system grants him tenfold returns from cultivation methods taught to disciples and from their subsequent progress, but it provided no beginner’s gift or cultivation method. 2

Unable to refuse the system’s potential, Chu Feng accepted Xiao Huohuo as a disciple and improvised a supposed immortal cultivation path from knowledge and tropes remembered from his prior life. Xiao Huohuo’s unexpected success at sensing and absorbing spiritual energy validated the method and allowed Chu Feng himself to begin cultivation through the system’s return. 4 7 9

After Xiao Huohuo reached Nine Qi Absorptions, Chu Feng attained Qi Refining Fourth Level and left the forest with him for Dongli City. There, the Xiao Family initially regarded him as a fraud before his spiritual-energy manipulation and flying-sword display forced them to recognize him as an existence beyond their understanding. 12 13 16 17

At the Misty Sect, Chu Feng ultimately intervened against the Black Underworld Sect. His Foundation Establishment aura overwhelmed the sect grounds and its Grandmaster-level opponents, establishing his power beyond conventional martial classifications. 49

Appearance

Chu Feng appears as a young man with an ordinary, cultivation-less exterior, causing many martial artists to mistake him for a fraud. At Qi Refining Fourth Level, his body becomes tougher, his skin smoother, and his appearance gains an immortal-like luster. 14 39 12

• Often wears black robes during confrontations. 49
• Usually maintains a calm, detached expression even when internally panicked or delighted. 10 17
• His spiritual energy manifests as a rosy or scarlet glow. 9 12 49

Personality

Chu Feng is pragmatic, cautious, and highly concerned with survival. At the beginning of his apprenticeship with Xiao Huohuo, he repeatedly fears that his improvised teachings will be exposed and considers fleeing if the disciple fails to cultivate. 7 8 9

Despite maintaining an aloof master persona, he is not truly detached from worldly comfort. He values food, leisure, and a comfortable life at the Xiao Family residence, and he allows Xiao Huohuo to handle hunting, cooking, and daily chores while he relaxes. 11 22

He is also opportunistic and quick-thinking. Lacking actual formal knowledge of immortal cultivation, he invents explanations and techniques from stories he remembers, then relies on Xiao Huohuo’s talent and imagination to make them work. 4 7 23 25

Chu Feng nevertheless treats Xiao Huohuo as his responsibility. He allows the disciple to test himself against the Xiao Family’s Third Elder, teaches him techniques after his breakthrough, and declares that he will not allow his disciple to suffer grievances. 20 21 23
