Background / History

Chen Yan was born on Blue Star in the High Martial Era with the Martial Dao God-Ascension System. By one month old, he had earned the Self-Disciplined Baby Boy and Vigorous as a Dragon and Tiger achievements, which increased his Qi and Blood through daily routines and exercise. His physical and spiritual attributes already exceeded those of ordinary infants. 3

He learned early that Blue Star’s martial civilization faced threats from ferocious beasts, Rifts, the Spirit Race, cultists, and Evil God forces. Determined to develop without becoming a research subject or target, he kept his abilities hidden from his parents and trained in secret. 3 8 12

While still a child, Chen Yan hunted Spirit Race infiltrators through differentiated Divine Sense, secretly guided Wang Jian to destroy a Spirit Race vessel, and devoured the enemy’s scattered mental origin. His intervention saved Wang Jian and raised Chen Yan’s Meditation Method and Divine Sense Differentiation to Great Success. 26 27

His cultivation accelerated after he acquired the Perfect Foundation Establishment achievement, developed the Chaos Dao Body, and began tempering his skeleton through the Hundred Bones Body Forging Technique. He traveled through the wilderness, fought ferocious beasts, refined beast cores, and encountered the Windless Mercenary Group. 39 44 47 54

Chen Yan later entered Imperial Martial Arts University despite his extraordinary youth. He rapidly surpassed older students, reached the Professional ranks, and became known in the East Continent Game under the name Yama. He won the East Continent Professional League championship and created the Yan-Style Qi Induction Technique. 90 137 186

As his strength grew, Chen Yan began operating against cultists, Evil God forces, and Rift threats. He saved Special Investigation Team members by absorbing Evil God Power, became leader of the New Rift Special Operations Team, and eventually concealed portions of his strength and identity from even his father. 156 192 209

He later acted in secret as the Nameless Great Being, protecting the East Continent Alliance from Black Tide invasions. His identity was exposed after he saved Zhao Wuji, Xu Guangzong, and Qin Ningshuang from two late-stage ninth-rank Black Tide Creatures. 324

Personality

Chen Yan is disciplined, calculating, and intensely focused on advancement. From infancy, he establishes long-term training plans, exploits opportunities efficiently, and avoids exposing his full capabilities unless the benefit outweighs the risk. 8 35 84 164

He is calm in battle and generally treats stronger enemies as opportunities to test or refine his techniques. His confidence is grounded in precise control rather than recklessness; he often withholds his full strength to protect his identity or preserve advantages. 57 115 244

Despite his pragmatism and willingness to kill hostile invaders, criminals, and enemies, Chen Yan is protective of family and allies. He acts swiftly when Du Qionghua is endangered, saves Special Investigation Team members infected by Evil God Power, and intervenes for Yu Qingmeng when she is threatened. 132 156 179 365

He also possesses a mischievous and worldly side. He uses his childlike appearance to deflect suspicion, reads others’ emotions and thoughts for amusement, and leverages Foundation-Cultivating Fruits to acquire rare cultivation resources. 49 107 172
