Background

Meng Chen was an ordinary modern human from Earth before a bizarre truck accident transported him to the Dou Qi Continent. A system allowed him to select four rewards from nine options; he chose a special physique, a guardian, a Ten Fiends treasure art, and one of the Nine Secrets. These rewards became the Divine King Physique, Qing Yanjing, the Ten Fiends Divine Gu Secret Art, and the Combat Character Secret 1.

The Divine King Physique replaced his mortal blood with ultra-pure, sacred golden Divine Blood. Qing Yanjing subsequently fell through a spatial rift near him while severely injured and unconscious. Recognizing her as the future Buddha Goddess, Meng Chen concluded that rescuing her before Mu Feng could alter the future of the Great Thousand World 1.

After reaching Wutan City, Meng Chen began from the lowest level of local cultivation with the Barbaric Bull Art, then inherited the Purple Sun Emperor's Purple Sun Incinerating World Heavenly Technique from Qing Yanjing's Spatial Sacred Artifact 3 5 6. He later claimed to Qing Yanjing that he came from the Heavenly Origin Realm on a mission to eliminate the Heavenly Evil God; convinced that his Divine Blood could counter the Extraterritorial Evil Clan, she accepted him as her sole disciple 15.

Appearance

After fusing with the Divine King Physique, Meng Chen appears to be a handsome youth of roughly sixteen or seventeen, with an otherworldly and sacred bearing 1 5.

• His body can radiate golden divine brilliance and a holy aura described as capable of cleansing evil and darkness 1 12.
• His eyes contain piercing divine light after the physique's transformation 1.
• His fully awakened physique produces golden Divine Blood and a golden divine mark between his brows 17.
• His later body is described as glazed-crystal-like and tougher than refined iron, marked by five Blazing Sun Flood Dragon Markings 59.
• His golden-purple Dou Qi can form armor and manifests as Golden-Purple Sunflame in combat 33.

Personality

Meng Chen is pragmatic, observant, and highly adaptable. Upon arriving in an unfamiliar world, he prioritizes immediate necessities—cultivation methods, funds, supplies, allies, and secure shelter—rather than dwelling on inaccessible opportunities 3 7.

He is ambitious and strategic, preferring to turn enemies into assets when useful. He recruited Hai Bodong, the Gold and Silver Elders, and Gu He into the Divine Court, while using formations, rumors, and valuable cultivation resources to establish authority 26 39 45 46 58.

His protectiveness toward those he accepts as his own can become ruthless. He rescued Qinglin from abuse, reassures her consistently, and annihilated the Jialie Clan after Jialie Ao attempted to assault her 24 34 52. He also recognizes his own recklessness after nearly dying from excessive dragon-blood refinement and accepts Qing Yanjing's warning to consolidate his unstable foundation 49.
