Background / History

Black Crow King took first place in the Genius Battle of his generation, surpassing all his peers. During his World Lord days, he served in the same Outer-Domain Battlefield squad as Marquis Scorching Sun, fighting alongside him against alien races 134 170.

After leaving the Initial Universe, the sharp decline in his cultivation speed troubled him so severely that he nearly went down the wrong path. Venerable Guiyi's timely guidance helped him recover—a personal experience that later informed his appreciation of Bai Yuan's composure under the same conditions 118.

By the time he became Bai Yuan's mentor, he divided cultivation and combat between two bodies: one remained in safety for meditation and comprehension, while his main combat body operated on the Outer-Domain Battlefield 118 134.

Appearance

• A Fire Cloud Crow perches on his shoulder 118.
• His arrival at Bai Yuan's residence is accompanied by an explosive voice and an overwhelming presence that eclipses the Immortals Aitor and Kaibar 118.

Personality

Black Crow King is warm and informal with Bai Yuan, discouraging excessive ceremony and openly celebrating his achievements. He is also strongly protective: he initially refuses to approve Bai Yuan's first dangerous mission and supplies a life-saving item after their teacher permits it 118 119 139.

His curiosity is tempered by respect for boundaries. When he notices unusual fluctuations in Bai Yuan's soul, he does not investigate further after Venerable Guiyi excludes him from their meeting. He likewise refrains from prying into Bai Yuan's exceptional soul power when their teacher remains silent about it 131 139.

He is unwilling to take unfair advantage of his junior brother. Despite recognizing the enormous value of Bai Yuan's Locke Divine Water, he rejects a proposed equal division because his own contribution was too small to justify taking half 157.

Abilities & Skills

Origin Law Cultivation

Black Crow King primarily cultivates the Laws of Water and Space. Venerable Guiyi specifically selects him to address Bai Yuan's slower progress in the Water Origin Law 118.

• Water Law instruction: His guidance, together with the Dead River Robe and Bai Yuan's realm advancement, helps Bai Yuan reach a Heavenly Bridge milestone in seven months that he had expected to require ten years 118.
• Comprehension versus combat power: His actual Origin Law comprehension is described as early-tier King-Rank, while his main combat body's high-tier King-Rank strength relies substantially on external forces 196.
• Teaching scope: He chiefly supervises Bai Yuan's Water Law practice and does not know the full extent of his junior brother's strength 133.

Clone

Black Crow King possesses a clone whose strength is no weaker than his original body 118.

• Sends the clone into combat while the original remains safely within the Virtual Universe Company or another secure location 118.
• Can restore a destroyed clone, although doing so requires time and resources 118.
• Uses this arrangement to maintain battlefield activity alongside secluded cultivation 134.

Beast Taming: Fire Cloud Crow

His companion, the Fire Cloud Crow, possesses Marquis-Rank combat power and uses its feathers as explosive weapons 118.

• Each feather has destructive power comparable to the self-detonation of an ordinary Immortal Military Lord 118.
• The crow reportedly killed three Immortal Military Lords in a single attack using this method 118.
• Black Crow King gives Bai Yuan one feather as emergency protection before his Xueluo World mission; Bai Yuan later grips it when confronted by a mysterious blood-red elder 119 127.

Auxiliary Lifeform Training

Black Crow King helps prepare Bai Yuan's Cloud-Touching Vine and metallic lifeform Kae for service as Immortal guardians 182.

• Returns both with peak Marquis-level auras; their physical advantages allow them to contend with high-level Kings 182.
• Encourages competition between them to motivate their development, inadvertently creating a rivalry he admits he can no longer control 182.
• Leaves the locations of their Immortal God Kingdoms for them to establish privately, emphasizing that such information must remain confidential 182.

Relationships

• Venerable Guiyi — Teacher. Assigns Black Crow King to mentor Bai Yuan and previously helped him overcome difficulties after leaving the Initial Universe 118.
• Bai Yuan — Junior brother and cultivation pupil. Black Crow King provides daily instruction, mission advice, emergency protection, and practical assistance 118 119 156 182.
• Fire Cloud Crow — Tamed companion carried on his shoulder; its explosive feathers are also used to protect Bai Yuan 118 119.
• Marquis Scorching Sun — Close friend and former World Lord squadmate. They remain friendly despite belonging to different factions and rarely communicating; Scorching Sun later grants Bai Yuan favorable Time Stone access and jokingly seeks compensation from Black Crow King 170 171.
• Blue-Eyed King — Eldest senior brother. Black Crow King enthusiastically welcomes his return and joins a gathering of their King-Rank disciple circle 154.
• Bone Dragon King — Fellow senior brother whom Black Crow King contacts to investigate the circumstances behind Bai Yuan's damaged reputation 150.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Appointment and Early Mentorship

• Daily cultivation mentor: Arrives on Venerable Guiyi's orders to oversee Bai Yuan's cultivation—an unusual appointment, since such mentors are normally Marquis-Rank rather than King-Rank Immortals 118.
• Xueluo World mission: Objects to the mission's 50% mortality rate and restrictions on technological equipment. After Guiyi authorizes it, he gives Bai Yuan a Fire Cloud Crow feather 119.
• Recognition of Bai Yuan's talent: Is astonished by Bai Yuan clearing the Heavenly Bridge's ninth level. He subsequently identifies mind and will, rather than bloodline or early law comprehension, as the decisive reason Guiyi valued Bai Yuan 133 134.

Heavenly Mountain and Cloud Palace

• Heavenly Mountain success: Celebrates Bai Yuan clearing the Original Heavenly Mountain after only two hundred years, far sooner than his estimate of at least a thousand years 139.
• Unconventional methods: Dismisses Bai Yuan's admission of “cheating,” arguing that succeeding without detection is itself an ability 139.
• Cloud Palace preparation: Explains the palace's levels and warns Bai Yuan not to venture too deeply, emphasizing that he must return alive after the assigned three years 139 140.

Reputation and Resource Support

• Reputation controversy: Investigates alarming news through Bone Dragon King. He struggles to understand why Bai Yuan would sacrifice his reputation and one hundred million points for someone he had only recently met 150.
• Fire Phoenix Group: Offers to arrange assistance against the group's remaining members while Bai Yuan personally targets Panxi. He later reports that his side of the operation is nearly complete 156 157.
• Locke Divine Water: Is shocked by Bai Yuan acquiring 712 cubic kilometers, worth over six billion Hunyuan units, but refuses the offered half-share 157.

Outer-Domain Battlefield Advice

• Ten Thousand Dragon Armor: Explains that the armor was created by Venerable Wan Long, not forged from ten thousand dragons, and identifies it as a top-tier defensive Heavy Treasure coveted even by ordinary Universe Venerables 196.
• Blade's identity: Correctly suspects that the World Lord known as “Blade” is Bai Yuan and agrees to keep the identity confidential 196.
• Incomplete knowledge: Does not know that Blade is merely an avatar or that Bai Yuan's Origin Law comprehension has already surpassed his own. He warns against underestimating hidden battlefield experts, ironically citing Bai Yuan's other identity, Jue He King, as an example 196.
