Background / History

Four-Unlike is the young master of Qilin Cliff and the son of Primordial Qilin and Jade Qilin. When Bai Ze and Duobao arrived seeking Qilin Cliff’s relocated secret realm, he accepted their claimed connection to the Venerable at face value and personally led them to his father. At the time, he was accompanied by Heavenly Fortune and Avert Evil, two young Pixiu brothers whom he treated as younger siblings. 102

Before Bai Ze’s arrival, the Qilin Secret Realm had already been destabilized by Tribulation Qi. Tulao and other Qilin Clan members became violent after being corrupted; Four-Unlike was attacked when he first left the realm and later became contaminated himself despite Primordial Qilin’s efforts to isolate the afflicted. 128

During Bai Ze and Duobao’s inspection of Tulao’s prison, Four-Unlike was possessed by gray aura. He activated the hall’s formation and released its prisoners, trapping Bai Ze and Duobao in the ensuing riot. He had previously shielded Bai Ze from the invading aura, but the protection left him vulnerable to Tribulation Qi corrosion. 104 105

Appearance

Four-Unlike normally appears as a four-legged qilin-like beast rather than assuming human form. He has wings, a mane, bright eyes, four hooves, fur, and a tail. 102 195 234

• Two small Pixiu, Heavenly Fortune and Avert Evil, were once seen sleeping within his mane. 102
• Tribulation Qi corruption shrouded him in gray-black aura and caused scarlet flashes to appear in his eyes. 126 127
• After merging with Darksoil of Xuánmíng, his presence became heavier and more profound, with a stronger earth-aligned quality. 153 154

Personality

Four-Unlike is initially open and trusting. He quickly accepted Bai Ze and Duobao’s explanation for their arrival at Qilin Cliff and welcomed them into the Qilin Clan’s territory. 102

He is protective of those under his care. He promised Heavenly Fortune that he would locate Avert Evil, then treated both Pixiu as younger siblings. Even while exploring the Blood Sea, he refused to harm an Earth Spirit merely to obtain its Darksoil Essence. 102 155

His strongest attachment is to Primordial Qilin. Four-Unlike became visibly distressed when the Qilin Secret Realm was attacked, repeatedly worried for his father’s safety, and tried to call Primordial Qilin back to reason when the latter was fully corrupted. 139 173 175

Abilities & Skills

Wu Earth and Earth-Vein Resonance

Four-Unlike possesses a powerful affinity for Wu Earth power and the earth veins.

• Senses Darksoil of Xuánmíng and detects earth-element gathering points. 154
• Extracted Darksoil Essence with sufficient precision to leave its attached Earth Spirit unharmed. 155
• Adapted better than his companions to the mana-suppressing environment of Mountain Suppression Prison due to his Qilin Wu Earth Origin Source. 161
• Read the patterns of Wu Earth destructive currents and assisted Bai Ze in navigating hazardous terrain. 162
• Reinforced Gathering-Scattering City’s defensive formation, raised earthen walls and ground spikes, and impeded the demonic tide. 193 195 196

Qilin Bloodline

His bloodline is closely tied to Primordial Qilin and the Qilin Clan’s Destiny Aura.

• His qilin blood and essence blood activated the hidden Bloodline Teleportation Formation within the Lotus Throne when combined with Bai Ze’s Wu Earth Origin Source. 140 141
• Primordial Qilin severed Four-Unlike’s connection to the clan’s Destiny Aura to weaken the Tribulation Qi Core within him. 135 136
• Primordial Qilin created a bloodline-linked replica from his own arm, Four-Unlike’s flesh and blood, and Four-Unlike’s Destiny Aura to misdirect the Tribulation Qi. 136

Environmental Perception

Four-Unlike can detect subtle changes and presences through the land.

• Detected movement in a Southern Frontier fissure connected to the remains of the marked beings. 216
• Identified refugees fleeing conflict, corruption, and destroyed settlements by listening to disturbances across the land. 219
• Warned Bai Ze’s group of approaching threats and sensed sealed or buried presences. 235 240 250

Tribulation Qi Vulnerability

Tribulation Qi is both Four-Unlike’s greatest weakness and a continuing burden.

• The corruption invaded his meridians, bones, and Qilin Origin Source, where a brutal Core consciousness fought against his remaining will. 128
• Bai Ze could purge loose Tribulation Qi, but could not safely extract the Core without risking destruction of Four-Unlike’s Origin Source. 128 129
• The Core was temporarily suppressed rather than destroyed; Four-Unlike needed to leave the Qilin Secret Realm and travel in search of a permanent cure. 129 137
• Demonic qi aggravated his condition in Demon-Breeding Forest, requiring his companions to protect him. 186

Relationships

• Primordial Qilin — Father and Qilin Clan patriarch. Primordial Qilin repeatedly sacrificed for Four-Unlike’s survival, including severing his own arm to create a replica that could draw away the Tribulation Qi’s attention. 128 135 136
• Jade Qilin — Mother; named as one of Four-Unlike’s parents. 102
• Bai Ze — Friend, healer, and travelling companion. Bai Ze took responsibility for suppressing Four-Unlike’s Tribulation Qi and was later entrusted with his care by Primordial Qilin. 125 129 135 181
• Duobao — Bai Ze’s senior brother and a frequent companion during Four-Unlike’s journeys. Duobao helped defend him during crises in the Qilin Secret Realm and the Blood Sea. 139 158
• Fuxi and Nuwa — Companions who supported Four-Unlike’s treatment, escape, and later travels. 128 175 224
• Heavenly Fortune and Avert Evil — Pixiu brothers whom Four-Unlike considers younger siblings. He reunited them after promising Heavenly Fortune he would find Avert Evil. 102
• Qilin Clan — His people and responsibility. Their corruption by Tribulation Qi caused him severe distress, especially when their guards no longer recognized him. 172

Story Role / Major Arcs

Qilin Cliff Incident

Four-Unlike first guided Bai Ze and Duobao to Qilin Cliff after its relocation. During their investigation of Tulao, he was possessed by gray aura and triggered the prison riot that exposed the threat of Tribulation Qi. 102 104

Treatment and Escape from the Qilin Secret Realm

Bai Ze returned to aid Four-Unlike after learning that the corruption had spread into his Origin Source. Following several dangerous treatment attempts, Bai Ze temporarily suppressed the Tribulation Qi Core, while Primordial Qilin severed his son’s Destiny Aura connection to the clan and entrusted him to Bai Ze. 127 137

When Fierce Beasts attacked the secret realm, Four-Unlike helped activate the Lotus Throne’s Bloodline Teleportation Formation. The group escaped the Heart-Nurturing Palace, though outside interference sent them into the Netherworld Blood Sea. 140 141

Blood Sea Expedition

In the Blood Sea, Four-Unlike recovered with help from the Nether Crystal Lotus and integrated a trace of Darksoil of Xuánmíng into his Origin Source. His strengthened earth affinity became essential for locating Darksoil, protecting the group’s formation, and traversing Mountain Suppression Prison. 153 154 158 161

Return to the Qilin Secret Realm

Four-Unlike urged the group to return to the devastated Qilin Secret Realm and find his father. When Primordial Qilin attacked under complete Tribulation Qi corruption, Four-Unlike’s desperate pleas and the group’s use of the Mountain-Suppressing Jade Tablet fragment helped restore the patriarch’s clarity. 171 175

Primordial Qilin subsequently permitted Four-Unlike to leave the secret realm with Bai Ze’s group, marking his transition from sheltered young master to an active traveller in the wider Primordial World. 181

Journeys with Bai Ze

Four-Unlike travelled with Bai Ze, Fuxi, and Nuwa through ancient ruins, Pure Land Alliance territory, and the lands connected to the beings who never knelt. His earth-sensing abilities repeatedly guided the group toward fissures, buried ruins, and ancient remains. 216 220 224

After Bai Ze’s encounter with the beings beneath the black sea, Four-Unlike guarded Bai Ze’s quiet chamber while he rested. 229

Later Battles and Patrols

Four-Unlike fought alongside Bai Ze during later conflicts, including the defense of Gathering-Scattering City and battles against the faceless threats in the north. 195 196 248 251

He later joined Bai Ze’s patrol mission to investigate remnants of Tribulation Qi and the influence of the eyes, continuing to accompany him through the northern regions. 204 252 254
