Background / History
Leian is a transmigrant who awakened in the Yulan Plane before the cataclysmic war of ten thousand years earlier. Knowing the importance of strength in the coming age, he devoted himself to cultivation with the specific aim of reaching the Saint Realm and protecting his family. His mature soul gave him unusual self-discipline, allowing him to surpass his peers despite lacking the Dragonblood Warrior bloodline. 1
At twelve, he entered Baron Laman's service as a third-rank warrior. A failed elemental-affinity crystal test led Laman to suspect an affinity for one of the Four Edicts; Leian successfully cultivated Destruction Battle Qi on his first attempt with the Black Stone Battle Method. 1
While serving as a guard captain, Leian secretly investigated Laman's scheme to control him with Heart-Eroding Potion. After the fall of the Laman and Cleo families, he acquired the Cleo Family inheritance, including cultivation manuals, the Magic Beast Transformation secret art, wealth, and a ninth-level Destruction-attribute magic core. 2 6
Leian refined the magic core through the Cleo Family's secret art and the Spring of Life. The fusion gave him draconic traits and eventually enabled full transformation into a purple-black Qilin-like divine beast. 9 10 29 39
After resigning his post in Baifeng Town, he moved his parents to Maple Leaf City, sought information on the Yulan Plane and Beirut, and trained in the Youquan Mountain Range. His rise to the ninth rank and his victory over Robert at Red Rock Ridge made him the foremost young genius of the Youquan Continent. 11 12 21 26 28
Following his ascent to godhood, Leian founded the Leian Empire and Martial God Hall. He divided the empire into sixteen provinces, assigned Saint Realm bishops, established academies and free aptitude testing, and used the resulting worship to accumulate faith power. 46 47
Appearance
Leian is a young-looking man standing approximately 1.8 meters tall, with a chiseled, handsome face and a determined bearing. His physique is muscular, sharply defined, and proportionate. 1
- Carries a massive black greatsword and a slimmer black longsword during his early training. 1
- Can partially demonize after fusing with the ninth-level magic core, growing purple-black scales and dragon claws. 10
- His complete transformed form is a purple-black Qilin-like divine beast with dragon horns, scales, claws, and a majestic aura. 39
- His divine clones are distinguished by their robes: black for Destruction, gray for Death, and green for Life. 63
Personality
Leian is disciplined, ambitious, and intensely focused on long-term cultivation. From childhood, he trains relentlessly and deliberately conceals his strength when exposure would threaten his safety or family. 1
His foremost personal priority is protecting and improving the lives of his family. He supervises his parents' cultivation, relocates them for safety, supports Allen's accession to the throne, and permits Bella to travel only after arranging secret Saint Realm protection. 1 11 48
Leian is pragmatic and strategic. He gathers information, purchases resources, cultivates multiple divine clones, posts long-term Fiend Castle missions, and makes preparations for future plans such as obtaining the Nine Spirit Pearls. 14 85 95
His pursuit of the Destruction Rule also affects his outlook. During his travels in Hell, repeated killing and the influence of his sword lead him to embrace a “Heart of Destruction,” becoming less concerned with distinguishing good from evil in his actions. 70

Magic Beast Transformation
Through fusion with a ninth-level Destruction-attribute magic core, Leian gained progressively stronger beast-transformation forms.
