Background

Chen Beixun escaped a slave planet during a riot and survived a difficult period drifting through the universe. He rose from slave to cosmic mercenary and eventually became a Universe-level cultivator through harsh training, secret manuals, and accumulated resources 3.

On Tianwen Planet, he established authority over the Sound-Direction Clan after inflicting severe losses on them. He equipped Luoduo with the Grade 5 blade Fuyecheng, a Wood Spirit Stone, and access to Virtual Universe secret techniques, accepting him as a disciple 3.

Qishan later recognized Chen Beixun’s potential and began directing his cultivation. Qishan arranged his training, supplied cultivation resources, and prepared him to seek Murong Shujia’s legacy through the Universe First Bank 10 64. Chen Beixun ultimately built his own faction, controlled three planets, and delegated administrative affairs to Luoduo while prioritizing cultivation 55 57.

Personality

Chen Beixun is intensely pragmatic. Having survived slavery, mercenary work, and cosmic competition, he treats strength as the foundation of freedom and security. He avoids reckless risks when there is little reward, retreats from opponents whose abilities he cannot assess, and makes extensive use of preparation, intelligence, disguises, and contingency plans 36 83 172.

His caution does not prevent ruthlessness. He kills enemies who threaten him or refuse to provide useful information, leads combat teams decisively, and is willing to burn his own soul or sacrifice his body to survive 47 94 116. He is especially resolute when protecting An Changyan or pursuing revenge against those responsible for the suffering of White Blue Star’s people 16 48 61.

Despite his calculating nature, Chen Beixun values loyalty. He rewards followers, gives rescued slaves the choice of freedom or service, trusts Luoduo with his faction, and shares valuable inheritances with An Changyan 53 61. He also remains self-critical; repeated defeats and encounters with stronger opponents reinforce his belief that complacency is fatal 78.
