Background / History

Lin Feng begins as a poor youth in Kaiyang County, supporting Mother Lin and his younger sister Lin Man while cultivating the military’s common Formation Breaking Art. His life changes after he gains a panel that converts food, medicinal resources, and slain enemies’ baleful qi into Improvement Points. 2 6

He works part-time at Old Wu San’s slaughterhouse, where killing animals provides Improvement Points through Avert Calamity. Even after growing stronger, he continues to provide food, silver, medicine, and protection for his household. 6 11 31

After reaching Skin Refining Perfection, Lin Feng enters the Demon Purging Division Reserve Camp. He survives assassination attempts and escalating conflict with the Xu Family, Green Snake Gang, and other local forces while building a reputation for exceptional combat ability. 23 30 32 68

Lin Feng eventually becomes a General and later a Commander. His rise brings him to Qinhe Prefecture, Yanzhou, the capital, and the broader cultivation world, where he studies formations, alchemy, artifact refinement, puppetry, and immortal cultivation. 147 187 217 281 318

Following his ascent to the Immortal Realm, Lin Feng inherits the Old Dragon Emperor’s legacy and becomes the Dragon Clan’s new Dragon Emperor. He later leads Tianyuan City against Outer Realm Beings and rises to the Emperor King Realm. 590 701 766 804

Personality

Lin Feng is devoted to protecting and supporting his family. His pursuit of strength is repeatedly tied to ensuring that Mother Lin, Lin Man, Lin Yu, and those under his care can live safely. 14 31 65 147

He is cautious when facing unknown threats. He values escape techniques, concealment, defensive arts, formations, and preparation, and he declines dangerous opportunities when he considers the risk disproportionate to the reward. 21 38 75 353

In combat and retaliation, Lin Feng can be ruthless. He kills enemies who threaten his family or persist in opposing him, often refusing pleas for mercy once he judges that a lasting threat has been created. 23 168 246 742

Despite his status, he initially remains humble toward commoners and continues working at the slaughterhouse after joining the Reserve Camp. 32
