Background / History

Chen Qiye was originally an Earthling obsessed with web novels. After staying awake for three days and nights, he transmigrated to the Battle Through the Heavens world. He initially posed as a wandering poet from the Imperial Capital while staying with the Xiao Clan. 1

His Myriad Realms' Strongest Master System remained inactive until Xiao Yan accepted him as a master. Once bound, the system granted him a novice gift pack containing Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms, a Beginner Experience Pill, access to the Beginner Shop, and the Plane Gate. 1

He later told Xiao Yi Xian that he was an orphan. His increasingly fragmented past became a central mystery: he learned that he was connected to Hao Tian, suspected a link to the Origin Life God, and eventually concluded that he was an independent consciousness without the Origin Life God's memories. 19 141 270 304

Appearance

Chen Qiye is a strikingly handsome young man most often seen in flowing white robes. His black hair, fair crystalline complexion, and profound eyes are repeatedly noted as giving him an otherworldly, distant presence. 25 174 216

  • Usually wears immaculate white robes, even after major battles. 221
  • Has ink-black hair and eyes compared to a boundless starry sky. 174 291
  • Possesses refined, exceptionally handsome features. 25 174
  • Often stands with his hands behind his back. 13 216
  • Returned to Nightless City with a streak of white in his bangs after three years away. 174
  • After further advancement, his hair gained a molten-gold luster and his presence became sacred enough to inspire reverence. 365

Personality

Chen Qiye is calm, self-assured, and difficult to unsettle. He prefers an inscrutable demeanor, frequently understates his strength, and openly recognizes that provoking strong emotional reactions is useful to his system. 1 3 22

As a teacher, he prioritizes his disciples' foundations rather than pursuing reckless short-term gains. He protects Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian fiercely, but expects them to walk their own paths rather than depend on him forever. 9 113 350

He is compassionate toward people he personally values, yet can be ruthlessly indifferent toward enemies and those who threaten his disciples. He destroyed the Ancient Clan over Xiao Yan's treatment, annihilated Soul Venerable Qinghai with a glance, and nevertheless intervened to save innocent lives endangered by the Ancient Realm's collapse. 97 106 109

Despite his status, he values directness and friendship. He asks close companions to address him casually rather than through formal titles. 348

Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms

A quasi-Heaven-grade technique originating from Earth and refined through countless deductions. Its strikes grow progressively stronger, but its enormous energy demand initially prevented Chen Qiye from using even the first palm. 2

  • Requires at least seventh-rank Martial Artist / seventh-stage Dou Qi to use its first palm. 2
  • Produces dragon-shaped palm-force phantoms. 6 9
  • Allowed Chen Qiye to defeat opponents above his apparent realm. 6 26

Heavenly Sword Art

  • His sword strike defeated two Titled Douluo in the Star Dou Great Forest. 140
  • A later single sword strike carved a river a hundred li away. 149

Divine Sense, Laws, and Deduction

Chen Qiye's perception and law-based abilities eventually became as dangerous as his swordsmanship.

  • Used the Law of Life to disperse poisonous mist and destroy the Lotus Serpent Demon body and soul. 291
  • Could kill with a glance, including Soul Venerable Qinghai and the Blood Saber Immortal Emperor. 106 358
