The invention belongs to the technical field of carbide ceramics, and concretely relates to a high-entropy boron-containing carbide ultrahigh temperature ceramic powder and a preparation method thereof. The molecular formula of the ceramic powder is XCyBz, wherein X is at least two of Zr, Ti, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo and W, y is equal to or more than 0.6 and less 1.0, z is more than 0 and equal to orless than 0.4, and y + z = 1. The ceramic powder has a single phase face-centered cubic structure. The preparation method comprises the following steps: carrying out ball-milling mixing on at least two metal powders and C powder, carrying out pressureless plasma sintering and crushing to obtain carbide powder, mixing the carbide powder with B2O3 powder and a carbon source, and then performing high temperature sintering and crushing to obtain the ceramic powder. The ceramic powder is a single-phase solid solution, has the face-centered cubic structure, and contains the boron element, so the ceramic powder integrates the high temperature resistance of carbides and the oxidation resistance of borides, and can be used to prepare an ablation and oxidation resistant high-entropy boron-containing carbide ultrahigh temperature ceramic block or composite material.
