Background / History
Mei Chu cultivated and observed the world's long cycles for thousands of years, seeking a path beyond ordinary limits. The emergence of the Spirit Bone gave them hope, but its failure to seal the Six Paths left it useless and transformed Mei Chu into Hua Yin's body. Unable to wait any longer, Mei Chu chose to investigate Jia Meng, believing Jia Meng's actions and collection of world remnants held the answers they sought. 86
While residing with Hua Yin, Mei Chu encouraged and comforted her insecurity about weak spiritual power and her desire to attend school. Mei Chu later accompanied Hua Yin into the cultivation world, guided her training, and helped her improve her use of her Cursed physique and Soul Force. 86 88 92
Mei Chu gradually identified the Ghost King's seals and deduced that Jia Meng intended to use Soul Force and seals in a long-term plan involving the “guest.” Rejecting a stable world governed by Jia Meng's seal system, Mei Chu resolved to accelerate their own plans and seek freedom through the ultimate sublimation of Soul Force. 93 94
After taking over Hua Yin, Mei Chu gathered special-grade cursed spirits and warned them that even their combined strength would not defeat Jia Meng. The group agreed to cooperate under Mei Chu's plan against Jia Meng's growing influence. 98
Personality
Mei Chu is patient, calculating, and intensely ambitious. Their long life has made them dismissive of ordinary eras and unwilling to accept a peaceful, predictable world; they instead pursue unrestricted Soul Force and chaos beyond anyone's control. 86 94
Despite this ambition, Mei Chu shows genuine concern for Hua Yin. They repeatedly reassure her, guide her cultivation, and judge that she has grown strong enough to no longer be a burden. 86 92
Mei Chu is also an opportunist who studies enemies before acting. Rather than directly overpowering Xia Bu, they exploit the rules of Xia Bu's puppet refinement from within, turning an attempted act of control into a means of seizing Xia Bu's Soul Force. 109
Appearance
Mei Chu's appearance changes substantially with their vessel and transformations. While operating through Hua Yin, they appear as a young girl; during later conflicts, they manifest as a monster or immense demon king with a scaled body. 86 113 114
- Operated through Hua Yin's young-girl body after the Spirit Bone's failure. 86
- When possessing Hua Yin, their expression replaces Hua Yin's fiercer demeanor with Mei Chu's comparatively gentle expression. 98
- Can transform into a golden dragon while using water-based techniques. 93
- Was refined into a black orb bearing faint patterns identifiable as Mei Chu's aura. 105
- In their final demon-king form, possessed a huge body covered in dark, hard scales. 114
Abilities & Skills
Soul Force Manipulation
Mei Chu can wield Soul Force for combat, defense, analysis, and large-scale alteration of the curse world. 93 103 109
- Recognizes the properties and limits of Ghost King seals, including the difficulty of breaking them at the intermediate Soul Gate level. 93
- Uses low-level Soul Force to obstruct stronger summoned Curses while minimizing personal expenditure. 103
- Creates water shields capable of absorbing part of Xia Bu's demon-blade strikes and blocking attacks from summoned entities. 103
- Uses Water Stream and Water Prison techniques to disperse Soul Force and test the strength of seals. 93
Crimson Gate
Mei Chu employs Crimson Gate techniques against Xia Bu, although repeated use leaves them vulnerable to Xia Bu's domain suppression. 105
- Crimson Gate – Black Mist — deployed within Xia Bu's Heart of Greed domain. 105
- Other Crimson Gate techniques are described as powerful but remain techniques that Xia Bu can counter once he understands their pattern. 105
- The techniques are heavily restricted while Mei Chu is trapped inside Xia Bu's domain. 105
Puppet Infiltration
Mei Chu can turn themself into a puppet to evade control and infiltrate an opponent's body. 109
- Preserves consciousness while being refined by Xia Bu rather than becoming a fully controlled puppet. 109
- Gains a portion of Xia Bu's control authority through the puppet rules imposed on their body. 109
- Enters Xia Bu's Soul Force storage space and uses puppet rules to absorb Soul Force. 109
- The method is limited by the target's willpower; Xia Bu's resistance eventually forces Mei Chu to withdraw from the direct struggle. 109
Curse-World Alteration
After absorbing Xia Bu's Soul Force, Mei Chu modifies Jia Meng's curse-world framework for their own control. 109
- Locates and refines ten of Guang's fingers using residual power from Ling Mo's curse. 109
- Exceeds Jia Meng's known control of nine fingers, allowing Mei Chu greater control over the completed curse world. 109
- Converts the curse world from a system intended to gather and destroy curses into one that extracts curse power from ordinary people. 109
- Condenses the stolen curse power into a massive curse organ. 109
Demon King Revival and Super God Demon Creation

- Revives historical overlords and vengeful spirits whose souls become ancient demon kings. 110
- Uses the Super God Realm's power in an attempt to create a colossal demon beyond their own control. 110
- Relies on powerful revived beings to counter threats to the developing Super God Demon. 110
Relationships
- Hua Yin — Vessel, student, and eventual possession target. Mei Chu comforts Hua Yin, trains her Cursed physique, and later takes over her body. 86 92 98
- Jia Meng — Primary rival and source of Mei Chu's sought-after answers. Mei Chu investigates Jia Meng's plans, opposes the seal-based world order, and is ultimately defeated by Jia Meng. 86 94 114
- Xia Bu — Major adversary. Mei Chu battles Xia Bu, is refined into a black orb, then infiltrates Xia Bu through puppet methods and absorbs their Soul Force. 103 105 109
- Ling Mo — Ling Mo's bloodline is derived in part from Mei Chu's genetic material. 87
- Mahito, Jogo, and other special-grade cursed spirits — Temporary allies brought together by Mei Chu to plan around Jia Meng's threat. 98

Story Role / Major Arcs
Hua Yin and the School Arc
Mei Chu's failure with the Spirit Bone leaves them bound to Hua Yin's form. They decide to approach Jia Meng indirectly while helping Hua Yin enter the cultivation world and develop her spiritual abilities. 86 88 92
Seal Investigation
Mei Chu analyzes the Ghost King's seals and concludes that Jia Meng's project is an extensive attempt to seal the “guest” and control the world through Soul Force. This realization drives Mei Chu to abandon a slower plan and act before Jia Meng's system is complete. 93 94
Alliance Against Jia Meng
After possessing Hua Yin, Mei Chu recruits special-grade cursed spirits, shares intelligence on Jia Meng's puppets and ambitions, and organizes resistance despite acknowledging Jia Meng's overwhelming strength. 98
Conflict with Xia Bu
Xia Bu identifies Mei Chu as an enemy who has accepted Soul Force. Mei Chu survives Xia Bu's Curses and water-based defenses but is ultimately suppressed, sealed into a black orb, and swallowed rather than immediately destroyed. 103 105
Usurpation of the Curse World
Mei Chu exploits their puppet state inside Xia Bu, absorbs Xia Bu's Soul Force, refines Guang's fingers, and overturns Jia Meng's curse-world system. The altered system extracts curse power from ordinary people and creates a curse organ. 109
Super God Demon and Final Defeat
Mei Chu revives ancient demon kings to protect the development of a Super God Demon. During the ensuing confrontation with Jia Meng, Mei Chu relies largely on extreme defense but is defeated when Jia Meng's Three-Pronged Halberd drains their life force and dissolves their body. 110 113 114
