Background / History
Lin Tian was originally a high school student in Yicheng City's Second Middle School. He was an orphan and had grown up in the same orphanage as Liu Qing, whom he supported with cultivation resources for years. His predecessor died after consuming a defective Blood Qi Pill while trying to reach the 100 Vitality threshold, after which Lin Tian transmigrated into his body. 1
Initially possessing only 98 Vitality, Lin Tian was treated as someone unable to become a Martial Artist. His refusal to continue supplying Liu Qing with Blood Qi Pills marked a complete break from their one-sided childhood relationship. Soon afterward, he awakened the Host Invincible System and received a Martial Saint Summon Card. 1
Lin Tian summoned Fancang Martial Saint, whose descent created the great-sun phenomenon over Yicheng. After learning to use the system's Small World and receiving the Heavenly Origin Technique through sign-in, Lin Tian reached 200 Blood Essence and became an Extreme Martial Artist. 2 3
Following an assassination attempt arranged by Li Ming, Lin Tian ordered Fancang Martial Saint to eliminate the Li family. He then established Heaven's Gate, naming himself its Heavenly Lord and using the organization as both a deterrent and the foundation of his growing influence. 6
Appearance
Lin Tian is a black-haired, black-eyed youth. 1
- Usually presented as a high-school-aged student during his early story appearances. 1
- His combat is frequently marked by crimson Blood Essence mist, lightning, and wind-generated movement. 16 54
Personality
Lin Tian is calm under pressure and becomes increasingly assertive after awakening the system. He refuses to remain submissive to Liu Qing, accepts retesting without panic when accused of fraud, and stays composed during assassination attempts. 1 4 13
He is highly strategic. During the college entrance examination, he deliberately feigned weakness to draw out hidden enemies, and later used his public entry into the Forest of Life Secret Realm to divert attention away from Qian Mengling. 28 185
Lin Tian is confident to the point of openly showing off, particularly regarding his cultivation speed, but his ambition is paired with concern for those around him. He wants his friends and Earth's cultivators to be able to stand beside him in the future. 49 52 362
Abilities & Skills
Extreme Martial Artist Physique
Lin Tian reached the 200 Blood Essence limit before advancing into Martial Dao, making him an Extreme Martial Artist. This grants Blood Essence far beyond ordinary cultivators at the same level. 3 17
