Background

Lin Mu's original body dies after jumping from a school building following a rejection. A strand of Wu Xuantian's divine consciousness takes possession of the body after passing through the Mysterious Bead, while its cultivation insights are sealed away. He initially reacts with frustration at being treated as disposable despite being an avatar. 2261

He enters the Extreme Martial Hall after excelling in the warrior assessment, declines the Thunder Martial Hall's offer, and purchases the Ninefold Thunder Blade, a Blood Shadow Battle Saber, and throwing knives. Zhuge Tao introduces him to the warlord-level Death God Squad, which becomes his first monster-hunting unit. 2261

Personality

Lin Mu is confident, direct, and strongly motivated by freedom. The Sky Eclipse Palace Lord specifically values his uninhibited, carefree temperament and tendency to act according to his heart. 2272

Despite his strength, he remains capable of loyalty and generosity. He becomes sworn brothers with Hong and Thor, later supports Luo Feng with resources, Yun Mo Planet's inheritance, and an invitation into their brotherhood. He considers people—not techniques or inheritances—the decisive source of strength. 2265 2266

He is also pragmatic and ruthless toward threats. During the Genius Tournament, he gains a reputation for ending fights decisively rather than entertaining intimidation or attempts to form connections. In later wars, he annihilates hostile forces and treats non-human opponents as enemies when the Human Race's survival is at stake. 2268 2288
