Chosen heir of Zhou XuziDivine SovereignEternal Heaven God Realm

Zhou Qingchen is the only son and chosen successor of Zhou Xuzi.

Biography

An innocent heir used for vengeance

Zhou Qingchen is raised apart from much of the secular world and embodies the upright future Zhou Xuzi imagines for Eternal Heaven. On his first expedition into the God Realm of Absolute Beginning, Yun Che and Qianye Ying'er kill his escorts and use Eternal Calamity of Darkness to transform his body, bloodline, and profound energy into those of a devil person. Zhou Xuzi hides him while seeking a cure, then brings him into the Northern Divine Region during a failed plan. Yun Che kills Qingchen before his father's eyes, turning a blameless son into repayment for Zhou Xuzi's attack on Jasmine and deepening the cycle of revenge. (Chapters 1513, 1610–1623, and 1653–1656)

Appearance and personality

Zhou Qingchen is a white-robed young man with a clean, sheltered bearing suited to Eternal Heaven's public ideals. He is gentle, dutiful, and deeply conscious of his realm's honor; after his forced transformation, his first impulse is suicidal shame rather than anger, even though he committed no wrong. (Chapters 1513 and 1620–1621)

Abilities and cultivation

Qingchen reaches the Divine Sovereign Realm at a young age and carries Eternal Heaven's elite training, bloodline, and resources. His cultivation is impressive but inexperienced, requiring Qu Hui's supervision in the primordial world. Eternal Calamity of Darkness changes his entire constitution by force, a transformation he cannot reverse and one that turns his own strength into a political death sentence. (Chapters 1610–1621)
