Background / History

In a previous life, Chen Yi was a peerless genius targeted by elders who wanted his powerful cultivation technique. He refused to surrender it without his master's permission, believing its release would cause a world-shattering upheaval. He was killed on the seventh day of the seventh month of the Gan Long Calendar, then reincarnated on Earth in the Super God Universe with his memories and the System intact 1.

The System gave him the Star Bolt Gene but required him to complete missions before it could be activated. While living as an Angel International employee, he met Angel Yan and defined justice as strength used to defend dignity, punish evil, support the weak, and protect what one values. Her warning of an imminent Taotie invasion strengthened his resolve to protect Earth; completing their conversation activated his genes 2.

Yi Chen's first major battle came during the Taotie attack on Juxia City. Drawing on combat experience from his former life, Bright Silver Armor, the Flowing Light Blade, and spatial jumps, he killed a Taotie warrior. The civilian deaths and destruction left a lasting impression on him, reinforcing his respect for life 3.

After attaining a First Generation Divine Body, he accepted recruitment into Super Seminary rather than protect Earth alone. He joined Xiong Bing Lian, trained with its members for three months, and developed camaraderie despite his initially distant manner 4 7.

Unable to advance beyond the First Generation Divine Body with Earth's resources, Yi Chen accepted Yan's offer to leave with her. On Brahma Star, she became his personal instructor and supplied the technology that enabled his Second Generation Divine Body upgrade 10 11 13.

Later, a System mission transported him into the Dark Silent Forest and then a devastated parallel Earth. Though the System restricted him from broadly influencing that world, he fought the black-matter outsiders, saved Ku Xi and Iridium, and destroyed their core device. The mission rewarded him with advanced equipment and Third Generation Divine Body upgrade technology before returning him to Yan 18 22 23.

Appearance

Yi Chen is a handsome young man with silver-white hair, fair skin, and a cold, sharp-eyed presence that makes others instinctively keep their distance 1 5.

  • Silver-white hair.
  • Fair skin and delicate but masculine features.
  • Cold, sharp eyes.
  • A well-defined, muscular physique developed through Divine Body tempering 4.
  • Wears Bright Silver Armor: silver and gold plating with classical chest patterns, a gray-black cape, and white Sacred Wings designed onto the cape 7.

Personality

Yi Chen is stubborn and principled. Even while dying in his former life, he refused to release a dangerous cultivation technique without permission. He places great importance on strength, believing weakness leaves one vulnerable to oppression and unable to shape one's fate 1.

He is normally cold, reserved, and reluctant to expose his private thoughts. He writes in a diary rather than openly discuss his frustrations, feelings, or fears. His past-life battle experience gives him composure under pressure, though Yan's flirtation regularly leaves him embarrassed and flustered 2 3 10.

Despite his detached exterior, Yi Chen values life and feels responsible for protecting others. Civilian deaths in Juxia City and the ruined parallel Earth deeply affect him. His concern for Earth, Xiong Bing Lian, and Yan repeatedly conflicts with his desire to gain enough power to protect them effectively 3 13 20.

Abilities & Skills

Star Bolt Gene

Yi Chen possesses the powerful Star Bolt Gene, which grants him stellar-energy manipulation and spatial abilities. Its potential is considered exceptional by Angel Yan and Queen Kaisha 1 4 13.

  • Mobilizes the Power of Stars for attack and body tempering.
  • Possesses spatial power for jumps and spatial suppression.
  • Has potential described as sufficient to reach Main God-level power if fully mastered 1 13.

Power of Stars

The Power of Stars is Yi Chen's primary energy source for combat, healing, and Divine Body refinement 1.

  • Tempers his body and helped him reach both First and Second Generation Divine Body stages 4 13.
  • Heals injuries, including wounds inflicted by the Sword of Flames 13.
  • Can be used to reinforce himself against dangerous radiation and dark-energy impacts 23.
  • Its effectiveness depends on available stellar energy; the devastated parallel Earth had too little star power for meaningful advancement 20.

Stellar Techniques

His documented Star Bolt techniques include Star River Surge, Star Stream Lightning Strike, and Star Travel Electric March 1.

  • Star Stream Lightning Strike — Releases absorbed lightning through the Flowing Light Blade against hostile figures 22.
  • Star Travel Electric March — Allows limited aerial combat but does not grant sustained independent flight 13.
  • His eyes turn deep red and emit electrical arcs when channeling significant lightning energy 22.

Spatial Power

Yi Chen can alter spatial positions directly rather than relying on conventional wormhole technology 3.

  • Performs rapid spatial jumps to evade attacks, pursue targets, and appear behind enemies 3 23.
  • Used a jump to execute a Taotie warrior from behind 3.
  • Can travel roughly a thousand meters in a single disappearance-and-reappearance movement 18.
  • Spatial movement can be disrupted by specially formed dark-lightning fields 22.

Dark Energy Manipulation

During the parallel-world mission, Yi Chen demonstrated an unusual ability to interact with dark energy and dark lightning 22 23.

  • Absorbed dark lightning into the Flowing Light Blade.
  • Drained lightning from hostile figures, leaving them weakened 22.
  • Formed a dark-energy blade around his hand to kill outsiders 23.
  • Used dark energy to test the outsiders' core device, though the device absorbed it without saturation 23.

Combat Skill

Yi Chen retained combat knowledge from his cultivation-world life, adapting it to a world where spiritual-energy techniques cannot be used 3 13.

  • Fights tactically, targeting vital points and exploiting openings.
  • Uses prior life-and-death experience to evade lethal attacks 3.
  • Sparred with Liu Chuang for three hours each morning during Super Seminary training 7.
  • Rapidly adapted his former fighting style to his current Divine Body and genetic abilities 13.

Star Departure

Star Departure is Yi Chen's exclusive Star Bolt Power Gene Engine 3.

  • Initially inaccessible despite being listed as a System gift 3 13.
  • Requires System missions or potentially near-death conditions for activation; the System warns against deliberately using the latter method 16.
  • Pre-activated during the Dark Silent Forest mission, replacing the System's direct assistance 18.
  • Recorded Third Generation Divine Body upgrade technology after “The Unknown End” 23.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

  • Flowing Light Blade — System-issued weapon used against the Taotie and later to absorb and discharge dark lightning 3 22.
  • Bright Silver Armor — System newbie gift; a refined silver-and-gold armored suit with a gray-black cape and decorative Sacred Wings. It protected Yi Chen from Taotie laser fire 3 7.
  • Star Departure — Exclusive Gene Engine for the Star Bolt Power 3.
  • Starfall Blade — God-Slaying Weapon awarded after completion of “The Unknown End” 23.
  • Light, Shadow Sword Trial — One trial opportunity awarded by the System 23.

  • System Store and System Backpack — Unlocked after his gene activation; the backpack stores his equipment and mission rewards 2 3.

Relationships

  • Angel Yan — Trainer, benefactor, and the angel who brought him from Earth to Brahma Star. Their relationship develops through her training, concern for his safety, and repeated insistence that he is her chosen “male god” 2 11 13 24.
  • Xiong Bing Lian — His Super Seminary comrades. Yi Chen trained beside them for three months and promised that he would return after leaving with Yan 7 11.
  • Di Lena — Super Seminary instructor and fellow high-level combatant. She respected Yi Chen's independent armor and arranged another item in place of academy-issued armor 7.
  • Queen Kaisha — Angel Queen who considers Yi Chen's genes highly promising and notes his high compatibility with Yan 4 9.
  • The System — His guide and source of missions, gene activation, equipment, Combat Power rewards, and progression technology 1 2 23.
  • Liu Chuang — Comrade and frequent sparring partner during Xiong Bing Lian training; their regular matches contributed to Liu Chuang's improvement 7.
  • Ku Xi and Iridium — Mecha-beasts Yi Chen saved from the black-matter outsiders during the parallel-world mission 23.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Reincarnation and Gene Awakening

Yi Chen begins as a reincarnated cultivation genius on Earth. After meeting Yan at Angel International and completing his first System mission, he activates the Star Bolt Gene and begins pursuing the strength needed to defend Earth 1 2.

Juxia City Defense

He independently confronts and kills a Taotie warrior attacking Juxia City. The battle proves his combat ability but also makes the cost of the coming invasion personal to him 3.

Super Seminary

Recruited by A Jie, Yi Chen joins Super Seminary and Xiong Bing Lian. He trains alongside the group, refuses an academy armor set because he already has Bright Silver Armor, and becomes a trusted comrade before their first major deployment 4 5 7.

Angel Training on Brahma Star

Yan recruits Yi Chen because Earth cannot supply the resources needed for his Divine Body advancement. He leaves Xiong Bing Lian, builds his own residence on Brahma Star, trains under Yan, and upgrades to a Second Generation Divine Body 10 11 12 13.

Dark Silent Forest and “The Unknown End”

A System mission unexpectedly removes Yi Chen from Brahma Star and sends him through the Dark Silent Forest to a parallel Earth devastated by war. He discovers outsiders attempting to preserve a destructive “balance,” destroys their core device, and returns with major System rewards 18 19 22 23.
