## Introduction

**Bai Qiuran** is the Main Protagonist of **I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years.** He was a war orphan who wandered throughout the battlefield eating beasts during the war against monsters, until his master found him and took him in to the Qing-Ming Sword Sect. There he was introduced to the cultivation world, however he has been stucked at the Qi Refining stage for 3000 years due to his extremely rare physique. Later on, he witnessed his former master and many of his friends ascend into the Immortal World or die trying as he cheated death for centuries.

In the present, he's the Grandmaster of the Qingming Sect, a somewhat honorary title bestowed upon him. He is also the strongest cultivator in the sect, surpassing that of the sect master and the elders.

## Appearance

He has white long hair and green-black eyes.

## Personality

Bai Qiuran is merciless to those who endanger the life of innocents. He is a very righteous man from a righteous sect. While most people are unaware of him, Bai Qiuran is renowned as the most powerful man within the world of martial arts. He is dreaded and admired by demonic sects for his fearsome power.

He is very annoyed by people mentioning Qi Refining Foundation and Foundation Establishment Stage. Due to his fixation with cultivation, Bai Qiuran has limited social skills. Surprisingly, he has a few female admirers who are interested in having a romantic relationship with him.

For three thousand years, Bai Qiuran remained a bachelor, until he married the goddess of plague, Jiang Lan. He also began to date Su Xiangxue, the gorgeous Sect Master of the Demonic Hehuan Sect, and they become intimate, much to the shock of the Qingming Sect Elders. At the end of the story, he is married to four women who love him.

## Background

Three thousand years ago, the war between humans and monsters ravaged the world. Eventually, a man named Qingming Taoist rose and ended the war with his extraordinary prowess. Qingming gathered many orphans and founded the Qingming Sword Sect.

Bai Qiuran was one of those orphans. He was Qingming's best disciple, but he was unable to cultivate past Qi Refining stage. Eventually Qingming became an immortal and disappeared. All of Bai Qiuran's friends passed away, while Bai Qiuran watched over the sect for three thousand years.

Although Bai Qiuran couldn't progress beyond Qi Refining Stage, over the centuries he amassed so much Qi that he is impossibly strong. Bai Qiuran is the world's most powerful cultivator, and many leaders of righteous and demonic sects accept his authority due to his unparalleled prowess. Eventually, Bai Qiuran discovers that the reason for his inability to cross the Qi Refining stage is because of his extremely rare physique, the God Envied Body. Bai Qiuran teams up with Wise Immortal and embarks on a quest, travelling back in time by millions of years, into the era of gods. His goal is to search for clues about the first person with the God Envied Body, and overcome his predicament.

After travelling to the era of gods, Bai Qiuran discovers that the first God Envied person died years ago. It is then revealed that it was Bai Qiuran himself who overthrew the God Emperor Taiyi and taught early humans the art of cultivation. Bai Qiuran killed the God Emperor for his cruelty towards other life forms. After the death of the God Emperor, Bai Qiuran's apprentice, Bai Li crushed the remaining gods and became the first Immortal Emperor. Bai Li founded the Immortal civilization based on Bai Qiuran's teachings, and thus history was repeated. Bai Qiuran finally attains True Spirit and returns to the present era.
