Background / History

Transmigration and conflict with the Divine Realm

Lei Chen was a transmigrator who became the Plane Lord of Douluo Star after crossing over during a nap. Although the position initially gave him power comparable to a Second-level God, Tang San's continuing influence over the lower realm made his authority precarious. Lei Chen regarded Tang San's parents and soul beast brothers remaining on Douluo Star as unlawful foreign presences and resolved to cut the Divine Realm's interference from the plane. 1

He formed an alliance with the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, to accelerate the arrival of the Spacetime Turbulence and exile the Divine Realm. Rather than act rashly, he watched key figures—including Huo Yuhao and a girl within the Haotian Sect—while waiting for the right opportunities to reshape the plane's future. 4

Establishing a new divine foundation

Lei Chen began cultivating native powerhouses capable of replacing or restoring divine authorities independent of Tang San. He guided Snow Empress through successive Heavenly Tribulations, supplied her with Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow, and led her to the Ice God's Heart, setting her on the path to reforge the Ice God's Divine Position. 17 20 21

He also selected Ye Gu Yi as the bearer of the Angel Holy Sword and supplied her with the Primordial Unity Immortal Herb, a soul-skill replication mark, and real-time intelligence on Evil Soul Masters. Because the Angel God's restoration required sufficient evil origin, Lei Chen deliberately planned to cultivate God-level Evil Soul Masters for Ye Gu Yi to eventually purge. 24 27

To strengthen the plane as a whole, he gathered its strongest cultivators in the Undead Demiplane, provided the Icefire Yin Yang Well as a Divine Body-tempering ground, and distributed rare resources such as the Astral Luo Spirit Pearl to push them toward godhood. 28 33

War with the Abyss Plane

After detecting the Abyss Plane's hostile attention, Lei Chen prepared for a planar war while assessing the Abyssal Saint Lord as a rival First-level God. He fought the Saint Lord directly, using the Living Beings' Watcher Divine Armor's regenerative properties to sustain a relentless offense while Electrolux dismantled the Abyss's foundation. 54 58 90

Following victory, Lei Chen absorbed the Abyss Plane's matter, energy, and law fragments into Douluo. The conquered plane's resources strengthened Douluo's reserves and accelerated its evolution toward an independent Divine Realm. 99 138

Expansion and ascension

Lei Chen later established faith-based structures within the plane. He elevated Yu Linyuan as Thunder God's High Priest and created the Thunder God's Sacred Pillar to assess potential successors and gather faith. 121 123 125

He guided Bi Ji toward godhood through her accumulated Faith Power and appointed her as a suitable custodian for the Golden Ancient Tree. He also persuaded the remnant Divine Sense of the God of Love to accept Zhang Lexuan as an inheritor, restoring another major Divine Seat to the plane. 100 101 131 181

After conquering the Demon Plane and integrating its laws, Lei Chen reached the Half-step God King Realm. He planned to strengthen his foundation through the Abyss Core, restore the Sea God, Angel God, and God of Love Divine Seats, and merge the Dragon Valley Micro-World into Douluo. 175 179

Lei Chen ultimately opened the Douluo Divine Realm, merging his Plane Lord and Thunder God King godhoods into a Dual God King Status. 222

Appearance

Lei Chen usually manifests as an exceptionally handsome man with black hair and black eyes, dressed in simple robes. His presence is often accompanied by faint seven-colored radiance, while a violet-gold lightning mark rests between his brows. 23

  • Black hair and deep black eyes. 23
  • Violet-gold lightning mark between the brows. 23
  • Seven-colored planar radiance surrounding his body. 23
  • Usually appears in plain, scholar-like robes despite his divine status. 215
  • His presence naturally draws surrounding laws and divine power toward him. 215

Personality

Lei Chen is patient, strategic, and exceptionally long-sighted. He prefers arranging circumstances years in advance rather than relying on immediate force, treating the growth of divine inheritors, wars, and even threats as interconnected components of Douluo's ascension. 4 149 179

As a mentor, he is generous with rare resources and practical guidance. He helps Snow Empress, Ye Gu Yi, Bi Ji, Du Bushi, and others become stronger because their advancement reinforces the plane, but he also recognizes their individual potential and encourages them to fulfill their own responsibilities. 17 27 101 106

His governance is deliberately detached. Lei Chen does not automatically intervene in every conflict between good and evil, believing a Plane Lord must preserve the plane's wider balance and evolutionary potential rather than act solely on personal sentiment. 215

He is openly contemptuous of Tang San's double standards and considers the Old God Realm's interference in Douluo intolerable. 1 246

Notable Quotes

“As the Plane Lord, I oversee the balance, evolution, and advancement of the entire plane.” 215

“What, Tang San? You're allowed to ignore the rules for personal gain, wreak havoc in the lower realms, and drag innocents into it, but no one else is allowed to call you a ‘beast’?” 246

Trivia

  • Lei Chen's earliest major plan was to make the Spacetime Turbulence arrive ahead of schedule and use it to remove the Divine Realm from Douluo's affairs. 1 4
  • He considers Divine Seats both powerful tools and restrictive shackles: they improve comprehension and recovery through faith but impose a cultivation ceiling based on the Divine Seat's grade. 109
  • He intentionally allowed the Demon Empress to remain a growing threat because her pressure would force the Sea Princess and the oceanic races to gather faith around a new Sea God. 149 150
