Character File

|---|---|
| Timeline node | Mortal Realm 04 |
| First / major meeting | Intersects Han Li around the Chaotic Star Sea and Void Heaven Hall through hostile treasure schemes, old debts with Jiyin, remnant-soul possession, and the Void Heaven Cauldron contest. |
| Cultivation at meeting / main stage | A Nascent-Soul old-monster-level Chaotic Star Sea figure; at meeting Han Li is far below his true layer and survives through information gaps, restrictions, and faction checks. |
| Identity and faction | Master Xuan Gu, old-master / old-enemy figure to Jiyin and a high-level demonic remnant-soul in Chaotic Star Sea. |
| Arts, laws, or treasures | Demonic arts, Xuan-yin methods, remnant soul, possession / borrowed body, secret treasures, and Void Heaven Hall mechanisms. |
| Relation to Han Li | One of Han Li most memorable Chaotic Star Sea threats, showing how the protagonist survives among Nascent-Soul old monsters by borrowing momentum. |
| Outcome / later thread | Should be part of the Chaotic Star Sea popular-opponent, Void Heaven treasure, and Jiyin relationship web. |
| Age precision | The text usually locates this figure by realm and arc; exact age remains chapter-level work. |
| Note | Original encyclopedia notes only; if cultivation changes, the meeting or main arc takes priority. |
