Background

Chen Qingxuan was once a cultivator of the Floating Life Immortal Domain who reached the Golden Immortal realm. His immortal body was shattered during the Nine-Fold Golden Immortal Tribulation, but his soul endured. He later arrived in the Douluo world through a meteorite and awakened as a translucent remnant soul within Qian Renxue's Sea of Consciousness 1 2 3.

He describes himself as having risen from humble origins. He began martial training at six, cultivated Qi at eight, reached Spirit Transformation at twelve, Void Return at thirty, attained the Dao at one hundred, and ascended to immortality in fewer than a thousand years after refining one hundred laws and forming a supreme immortal foundation. He claims this made him the fastest immortal ascendant in the Floating Life Immortal Domain in more than one hundred million years 15 87.

Upon discovering Qian Renxue's Angel bloodline, he briefly considered taking her body for easier re-cultivation, then rejected the idea as beneath his principles. Instead, he offered to become her master and simplified the Primordial Nirvana Sutra so she could practice it 2.

His presence also led to the release of Qian Renyou, Qian Renxue's second soul, from her subconscious. Chen Qingxuan subsequently became mentor to both souls sharing the same body 22.

Personality

Chen Qingxuan is composed, proud, and direct. Even after losing his body, he considers himself impossible to truly confine or destroy, citing his survival of the Immortal Tribulation 2.

He is demanding as a master and prioritizes foundation, self-reliance, and long-term growth over immediate power. He crushed Qian Renxue's prior cultivation so she could rebuild with greater potential, refuses to let her depend excessively on tools or his intervention, and seals magic tools whose power exceeds her current level 8 85 98.

Despite his aloofness, he is attentive toward his disciples. He reassures Qian Renxue about her worth, gives Qian Daoliu a longevity-oriented cultivation technique because of his connection to her, and patiently teaches Qian Renyou despite her teasing and emotional outbursts 3 26 87.

He can be pragmatic and calculating when recovering his strength, treating Qian Renxue's fortune and the fate attached to transmigrators as resources, while still observing strict limits on what he regards as honorable conduct 2 9 41. He is also quietly indulgent toward Qian Renxue's spoiled behavior, even while maintaining the outward demeanor of a stern master 92 118.
