Baili Chen
Baili Chen is a corpse-based clone created by Sikong Yi, using the remains and knowledge of an ancient Cloud Water Heavenly Palace disciple.
Biography
The Opening of the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace
Baili Chen enters the reopened Cloud Water Heavenly Palace beside Sikong Yi, presenting himself as a companion while displaying suspicious familiarity with the layout and coordinated hostility toward Li Fan. The later revelation that Sikong Yi created him from an ancient disciple's corpse explains that knowledge and reframes the friendship as a creator-clone partnership. Li Fan kills the mid–Qi Condensation copy during the struggle, and a later cycle shows another recreated Baili Chen captured, so the name refers to replicable constructed bodies rather than a securely continuous original survivor. (Chapters 78–90; Chapter 168)
Appearance and personality
The supplied text identifies Baili Chen as male but does not provide stable facial, hair, or clothing details. He behaves as Sikong Yi's close companion, cooperates seamlessly in combat, and shows concealed killing intent toward Li Fan. Because his body derives from a dead ancient disciple, apparent loyalty and personality may be products of Sikong Yi's construction rather than evidence about the deceased person. (Chapters 78–90)
Abilities and cultivation
Sea Fixing Sword Technique
Baili Chen possesses a complete version of the Cloud Water Heavenly Palace's Sea Fixing Sword Technique and uses it in coordination with Sikong Yi. His mid–Qi Condensation cultivation prevents him from bringing out the Dragon Roar component, sharply limiting the inherited method's power. Ancient knowledge in the corpse makes the clone dangerous, but it does not erase the body's realm restriction. (Chapters 78–90)
Clone construction
His continued or repeated presence depends on Sikong Yi's ability to animate and recreate a body from an ancient corpse. The corpus does not establish that Baili Chen's consciousness survives destruction intact, so later copies should not automatically be treated as resurrection of one continuous person. (Chapters 89–90; Chapter 168)
Relationships
- Sikong Yi is Baili Chen's creator, controller, and combat partner.
- Li Fan recognizes the pair's hostility, kills one copy, and later captures a recreated version in another cycle.
Items
- No named weapon or treasure is securely assigned to Baili Chen's personal ownership.
- Cloud Water Heavenly Palace relics remain contested expedition finds and are not automatically his property merely because his corpse-source knew the palace.
