Background / History

Lin Dong is a member of the Lin Family in Qingyang Town. Like Lin Fan, he faced ostracism within the clan; the two became close partly because they shared enemies and difficult circumstances. His father, Lin Xiao, was crippled by a Lin Clan prodigy. 1 11

After obtaining the Stone Talisman, Lin Dong rapidly advanced in cultivation. Lin Fan discovered that he possessed the treasure but chose not to seize it, instead proposing cooperation: Lin Dong used the Stone Talisman to refine Yang Essence Stones into Yang Yuan Pills. Their partnership brought Lin Dong substantial cultivation resources and a Cosmos Sack. 1 8 9 10

Lin Dong later joined Lin Fan and Qing Tan on journeys through Flame City, the Great Desolate Province, and the Great Desolate Ancient Tablet space. His Stone Talisman, spiritual talent, and willingness to pursue dangerous opportunities repeatedly distinguished him from ordinary cultivators. 23 63 87 94

Personality

Lin Dong is cautious about secrets and initially reacts guardedly when Lin Fan reveals knowledge of the Stone Talisman. He nevertheless places considerable trust in Lin Fan’s judgment, seeking his advice before accepting Master Yan as his teacher and before undertaking dangerous cultivation opportunities. 8 24 87

He is diligent and serious in training. He spent a day and a half refining Yang Essence Stones into pills, practiced the Thirty-Six Forms of Zhenwu under Lin Fan’s instruction, and pursued resources to manage the violent power of the Ten Thousand Beasts Fruit. 9 71 82
