Background

Before entering Train World, Lu Xingyuan was an orphan and shut-in. After awakening in the survival game, his first concern was an unfinished match of Fortune's Losing Streak; he initially lacked exercise and relied on a firearm that had no ammunition. 1 3

He adapted rapidly to the new world. Early genetic enhancement gave him enough strength to overpower hostile conductors, while repeated shooting turned him into a highly accurate marksman against zombies. 8 17

At an early solo platform, he freed an elderly yellow dog from an underground cage. The dog left him Keen Fangs, a pendant that increased his movement speed. 14

His progression is driven by the unique Colorful Hex talent, which grants him a new Hextech draw whenever his train advances. His early Hexes gave him inexhaustible weaponry, station-based loot, and a renewable item-upgrade system, creating an advantage that steadily widened over other conductors. 1 9 33 152

Appearance

Lu Xingyuan is a tall, strikingly handsome young man, described as over six feet tall with a clean, refined face and a naturally imposing presence. 6 158

• Sword-like brows and bright, star-like eyes. 114
• Sharp facial contours and a clear, heroic bearing. 114
• Physically imposing after extensive gene enhancement and body-tempering. 119 249
• His appearance is notable enough that other conductors frequently recognize him from his profile image. 6
• His distinctive, heavily armored black train, strengthened with Extreme Iron Obsidian, is recognizable as a steel-behemoth-like vessel. 334 454

Personality

Lu Xingyuan is calm, observant, and highly practical. He weighs the utility of items against his own needs, such as choosing the life-saving Dust-Scattering Smoke Pouch instead of the most outwardly powerful treasure in the dog-headed man's collection. 41

He is willing to protect and reward people he considers his own, including Cai Cai, Alice, Teemo, Gu Wanqing, and Yuan Shan. He also aided strangers who resisted oppression or danger, such as the siblings targeted by the Mutual Aid Association. 86 232 368

However, he is ruthless toward threats, betrayals, and perceived disrespect. He rejects moral blackmail, refuses to submit to powerful factions, and often kills opponents who underestimate him or try to exploit his goodwill. 8 235 279 344

His humor is frequently provocative and self-serving; he repeatedly invokes having “read the Spring and Autumn Annals” to deny accusations of impropriety. 8 72

He remains composed in dangerous situations and is willing to temporarily cooperate with dangerous figures when it serves his interests. During the Mist Princess's escort mission, he intended to exploit the opportunity for resources while carefully treating the Mist Princess as a genuine threat. 483 502

On the Golden Platform, he shared valuable potions with Zhao Nanzhi's companions despite Xia Nan's efforts to turn them against him. Later, he treated a fight with the mutated Lei Lingyun as an opportunity to practice Spatial Power, ending it when Lei became too dangerous. 560 603

Abilities & Skills

Hextech

Lu Xingyuan's Colorful Hexes are a central source of his unusual growth, resource generation, and combat potential.

• Infinite Firepower — Removes his need to worry about ammunition, allowing a designated weapon to remain fully loaded without conventional ammunition, durability, or energy constraints. 1 2
• Prismatic Pipeline — Causes a Prismatic Orb filled with loot to appear whenever he arrives at a station; the quality of its contents rises with his train level. 9
• Transformation Reassembler — Allows one inserted item to be upgraded when the train reaches a station, subject to his train's item-level limit. It has repeatedly evolved his equipment, including the weapon line that progressed from his firearm into the Thunder Gatling. 33 37 89
• Yordle — Identifies Lu Xingyuan as a Yordle, though its practical effects were initially unclear to him. 107
• Summoner Spells — His fifth Colorful Hex, which grants one-time-use spells whenever he reaches a new platform. 193
• Star Upgrade — His sixth Hextech ability, which fuses three identical items into superior versions. He used it to raise Basic Gene Enhancement Potions through Intermediate, Advanced, and Perfect grades, then created Transcendent Gene and Mental Enhancement Potions by combining Perfect-grade potions. 336 337

Golden State

A temporary transformation marked by golden eyes and spreading golden patterns across his body. It dramatically raises his physical combat power.

• Allowed him to defeat the powerful blond remnant soul and later overpower the Dark Mage. 154 164
• Its duration improved through Advanced Gene Enhancement Potions, reaching approximately three minutes. 150
• Powerful attacks can drastically shorten its duration; Wen Leisha reduced it from over three minutes to a single breath. 218
• He entered Golden State again during his fight with the mutated Lei Lingyun. 603

Heaven-Splitting Life-Severing Slash

A Level 7 execution skill gifted by Hand Sis.

• Condenses sharp aura into an extremely fast blade flash capable of dealing massive execution damage. 95
• Demands exceptional physical conditioning; forcing it can cause exhaustion or backlash. 95
• Its first use caused Lu Xingyuan to pass out. 96
• He used it in Golden State to instantly kill the kobold in the trial space. 141

Gleaming Shadow

A speed-type skill obtained from a Random Skill Card.

• Initially a Level 4 skill that turned Lu Xingyuan into a gleam of light for a short-range instantaneous dash. 95
• Leaves afterimages and can be used for evasion or surprise attacks. 95
• Its original form could not be activated repeatedly in a short period. 95
• Allowed him to evade attacks from the kobold and Goblin Mage. 95 135
• A Skill Upgrade Card raised it to Level 5, extending its dash range, adding a target-disrupting afterimage, reducing its cooldown, and granting a temporary critical-hit bonus after dashing. 307

Summoner Spells

Lu Xingyuan's fifth Colorful Hex grants one-time-use spells whenever he reaches a new platform. 193

• Teleport — Used to travel directly to Cai Cai's train. 193 194
• Flash — Used for sudden repositioning, including against Wen Leisha and the child City Lord. 218 322

• Form Void: Return to Zero — Erased three mist-forged arrows fired by one of the Mist Princess's protectors. 506

Spatial Power

A second talent inherited from Wang Tianhua. Lu Xingyuan practiced its techniques in the Myriad Realms Arena before using them against Lei Lingyun in live combat. 577 588 590 603

• Trained Spatial Jump, Spatial Severing, Spatial Collapse, and Spatial Cage, then began combining them with one another and with his existing attacks. 588
• Mastered Spatial Cage well enough to activate the complex technique quickly and silently, preventing Lei Lingyun from dodging. 601
• Used spatial movement and attacks to evade Lei Lingyun and strike at his weak points. During their fight, his control over Spatial Power improved by an estimated ten percent. 603
• Used Spatial Transposition to move Qin Si into the path of Lei Lingyun's attack. 603

Bronze Eye

A bronze vertical-eye mark recovered from the blond remnant soul.

• Reveals weaknesses in targets, allowing Lu Xingyuan to identify vulnerable points. 154 320
• Can forcibly create a weakness in an otherwise flawless opponent. 156 286
• Heavy mental strain limits prolonged use; forcing its second ability causes severe pain. 156

Ten Thousand Arrows at Will

A Level 5 mental-control skill.

• Controls nearby projectiles and objects for rapid, continuous firing. 259

Fated No Return

A Level 8 lock-on skill.

• Can strike a locked target even when they merge with wind or otherwise become difficult to target. 377
• Its absolute targeting property allowed Lu Xingyuan to severely wound Sun Wuxing despite his wind-based evasion. 377

Astral Ring Annihilation

An ultimate annihilation technique used through his evolved floating-cannon platform.

• Transforms the floating cannons into a vortex of silver particles that erases concentrated enemy waves. 500
• Enabled him to annihilate the attacking goblin forces at Blackstone Monastery, where the Six Luminary Annihilation Cannons subsequently destroyed a 10,000-strong goblin army in under five minutes. 500 501

Physical Conditioning and Combat Training

Lu Xingyuan repeatedly enhances his body and mind through gene potions, mental potions, the Electric Chair, and simulated combat.

• The Electric Chair causes extreme pain but improves his physical condition. 84 96
• Gene enhancement progressively improved the duration and strength of his Golden State. 150 218
• The Constitution Fruit reforged his body, granting extraordinary endurance and strength. 249
• He installed the Myriad Realms Arena to compensate for weaknesses in technique and train against powerful opponents such as Yun Shu. 192 249 265
• The Electric Chair was later upgraded into the Rock-Pressure Body-Tempering Chamber, allowing more intensive physical training. 234
• Through Star Upgrade, he created and used Transcendent Gene and Mental Enhancement Potions, further strengthening both his body and mind. 336 337
• He later injected two Transcendent Gene Enhancement Potions in succession, raising his punching power to 5,000 kilograms. 550
• The Myriad Realms Arena can record qualified powerful opponents and reproduce their combat methods, allowing him to study enemies such as Sky-Shaking Thunder before facing them again. 478 521
• After repeated losses to Yun Shu, he simulated Wen Leisha as a more manageable swordsmanship opponent. Her improved technique wounded him when he lost focus, but he recovered and disarmed her. 551
• He used the arena to learn his newly inherited Spatial Power, then found that fighting Lei Lingyun sharpened his control more quickly than isolated practice. 588 603

Relationships

• Gu Wanqing — Close ally and frequent source of intelligence, funds, and banter.

They also cooperate on resource cultivation, including the Violet Shadow Spirit Tree's production of Purple Shadow Spirit Fruits. He told her about Wang Tianhua's death and the Spatial Power he inherited. 95 256 361 418 545 590
• Cai Cai — Trusted companion and cook whose Dry-Red Blaze and later Bountiful Blessing support the group. Lu Xingyuan gives her resources and transferred a golden Flash skill to her. 72 86 301 418

• Wang Tianhua — Former long-running rival and leader of the Heavenly Splendor Association.

Before his death, Wang Tianhua passed his Spatial Power talent to Lu Xingyuan in the hope that Lu would avenge him against Sun Yi. 58 118 321 577 590
• Qin Zhirou — A recurring adversary whose bound throwing knives Lu Xingyuan severed from her control. Their later interactions include uneasy transactions, mutual assistance, and an increasingly intimate, romantically charged dynamic; she is fiercely protective of him when others insult or threaten him. 364 406 454 500 502
• Bai Luoying — Initially hostile as a Myriad Dragons Alliance member. Lu Xingyuan later gave her Hollow Echo as an apology, while she began developing feelings for him; at Blackstone Monastery, his lingering attention toward her and Qin Zhirou's teasing made their apparent romantic tension increasingly noticeable. Bai Luoying later learned that Qin Zhirou's hints had misled her: Lu Xingyuan had not intended to court her, and her feelings had been one-sided. She nevertheless warned him to be careful when Lei Lingyun challenged him. 407 451 501 502 593 600
• Zhao Nanzhi — An ally whose safety Lu Xingyuan prioritizes in confrontations with stronger enemies; he withdrew from Sky-Shaking Thunder rather than expose her to danger and later searched for her at Blackstone Monastery.

• Mist Princess — A powerful and distrustful quest-giver whom Lu Xingyuan regards as a genuine danger. He accepted her Blackstone Monastery escort mission while intending to assess and exploit the opportunity on his own terms. She later offered him a Level 8 treasure chest and key to fight her four protectors, expecting the combatants to destroy one another. 483 502 506
• Saiban — A technically knowledgeable associate tasked with studying and constructing the Camouflage Force Field Generator. Saiban's skepticism changed to respect after Lu Xingyuan rapidly acquired rare materials, prompting him to seek a closer cooperative relationship. 545 550
• Xia Nan — A member of Zhao Nanzhi's Golden Platform group who resented Lu Xingyuan's strength and closeness to her.

• Lei Lingyun — A high-ranking Mutual Aid Association member who challenged Lu Xingyuan using the Blood-red Eyes and subsequently transformed into a powerful, increasingly mindless monster. Lu Xingyuan used their fight to practice Spatial Power before cutting him down. 600 601 602 603
