Background / History

Shrek Academy

Ling Luochen enrolled at Shrek Academy in the same year as Lin Fan and became his classmate. Her unwavering trust in him is rooted in an incident seven years earlier, when he stood in front of her to protect her 15 23.

She became one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, serving alongside captain Ma Xiaotao. Her ice could suppress Ma Xiaotao’s Evil Fire, but doing so consumed substantial Soul Power and stamina and slowed her cultivation. She openly disliked Ma Xiaotao, explaining that their personalities were incompatible 15.

Failed Intelligence and Lin Fan’s Return

While undertaking a solo mission near the Ming Dou Mountain Range, Ling Luochen discovered that Xuan Zi’s intelligence had understated the enemy force. Instead of a manageable Soul Ancestor-level threat, the group included a Soul King and multiple Soul Ancestors. Recognizing that she could not safely fight them all, she contacted Lin Fan for assistance 9 10.

Lin Fan arrived with Leng Yaozhu, eliminated sixteen enemies, and left the remaining Soul King for Ling Luochen to defeat. She thanked him and later treated both companions to a meal 10 12.

Back at Shrek, she welcomed Leng Yaozhu into her previously unshared double dormitory. She offered practical help without questioning the contents of Yaozhu’s Storage Soul Tool or pressing her to reveal personal secrets 14 17.

Leaving Shrek

Ling Luochen became increasingly critical of Shrek’s leadership. She reported that teachers opposed to Yan Shaozhe were being marginalized and intended to use her Shrek Seven Monsters status against Zhou Yi. Although Lin Fan warned that this could make her a target, she believed her earned position and Mu En’s backing offered protection 27.

She pledged to leave Shrek whenever Lin Fan did. During the eventual confrontation, she challenged the academy’s refusal to acknowledge its wrongdoing. Yan Shaozhe opposed her withdrawal, partly because Ma Xiaotao depended on her assistance in suppressing Evil Fire. Ling Luochen nevertheless left with Lin Fan 32 56 59.

Hidden Azure Pavilion

After learning that Lin Fan founded Hidden Azure Pavilion, Ling Luochen requested membership and received an identity pendant. She later moved into his residence with Leng Yaozhu, then relocated with the group to the pavilion’s headquarters 31 37 44 62.

She contributed to the pavilion through alchemy, including refining the pill that cured Zhang Peng’s Martial Soul defect. Lin Fan exempted her from teaching duties at the newly established Azure Abyss Academy so she could prioritize cultivation and preparation for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament 62 75.

Her later training took her to the Far Northern Land. After obtaining her sixth ring, she accompanied Lin Fan and Leng Yaozhu to Earth Dragon Gate, where she sensed something beneath its Cold Spring drawing her Martial Soul toward it. Descending into the spring, she recognized the surrounding ice-attributed spiritual energy as a valuable cultivation resource 88 92 93 94.

Appearance

• Overall impression: A beautiful young woman with an icy, aloof bearing and cool, clear eyes 10 12.
• Build: Slender waist and fair skin, emphasized when wearing her fitted Battle Armor 71.
• Battle Armor silhouette: Ice-blue armor with snowflake patterns, raised shoulder-blade shapes resembling ice spikes, and an armored skirt reaching mid-thigh 71.

Personality

Ling Luochen appears quiet and detached to unfamiliar people, but she is gentler and more expressive around Lin Fan. She smiles, teases him, and readily states that she will support him against Shrek’s leadership. She is also blunt about her dislikes, making no attempt to conceal her antipathy toward Ma Xiaotao 12 15.

Her loyalty to individuals outweighs institutional prestige. Although she once valued the Shrek Seven Monsters title, she becomes willing to risk or abandon it for Lin Fan. Her disappointment with Shrek develops from experience: she entered with high expectations, then gradually lost faith in the people occupying positions of authority 27 32 72.

She respects others’ privacy and responds generously to their immediate needs. Even when she suspects that Lin Fan and Leng Yaozhu are keeping important secrets, she chooses not to pry 17 83.

Her affection for Lin Fan also exposes insecurity. She compares herself unfavorably with Leng Yaozhu’s talent, strength, appearance, and technological knowledge. Rather than surrendering to those feelings, she works harder at cultivation and alchemy, hoping eventually to become strong enough to confess her love 36 71 77.

Abilities & Skills

Ice Manipulation and Battlefield Control

Her elemental Martial Soul supports a fighting style centered on long-range control, with additional explosive offensive power 23 27.

• Ice Staff: Her first Soul Skill creates a two-meter staff of condensed ice crystals 27.
• Ice Spears: Produces airborne spears and launches them at targets. With Battle Armor, they pierce a tree and penetrate deeply into the ground 71.
• Direct elemental use: After gaining Ultimate Ice, she creates an icy spear without activating a Soul Skill 82.
• Evil Fire suppression: Her earlier ice abilities could restrain Ma Xiaotao’s Evil Fire, but at significant cost to her stamina, Soul Power, and cultivation speed 15.

Self-Created Ice Shield

Ling Luochen develops Ice Shield by adapting principles from Lin Fan’s Spatial Shield. His Mind Space transmits the theory and guides her Soul Power through the necessary circulation pattern 23 24.

• Establishes the skill’s form in slightly more than two hours, though the first shield has almost no defensive strength 24.
• Learns to use it against the Far Northern Land’s wind and snow after a month of instruction 67.
• Sustained protection remains limited by Soul Power consumption 67.

Ultimate Ice

An ice-attributed pill transforms her Martial Soul into Ultimate Ice. Lin Fan provides the formula, materials, and guidance, while Ling Luochen performs the successful refinement herself 76.

• Considerably strengthens her elemental attacks; pavilion members judge that even Soul Emperors may struggle against her unarmored demonstration 82.
• Combined with One-Word Battle Armor, enables her to defeat the powerful bear chosen for her sixth ring 92.
• Makes ice-rich cultivation environments especially valuable to her 94.

Alchemy

Ling Luochen initially demonstrates pill refinement to Lin Fan. He quickly learns the technique, surpasses her, and begins guiding her in return 62.

• Refines a high-year Purifying Evil Grass pill that completely resolves Zhang Peng’s Martial Soul problem 62.
• Successfully produces the pill responsible for her Ultimate Ice transformation after her first batch fails 76.
• Studies increasingly diligently to reduce Lin Fan’s workload and contribute more to Hidden Azure Pavilion 71 77.

Physical Conditioning

Lin Fan’s training, body-strengthening herbs supplied by the Body Sect, and medicinal pills improve her physical constitution 92.

• Can safely pursue a Soul Beast around seventy thousand years old for her sixth ring 92.
• Chooses that age conservatively rather than pushing her maximum tolerance, knowing that Lin Fan can later increase a Soul Spirit’s age 92.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• One-Word Battle Armor — Personally designed and crafted by Lin Fan for her combat style. Enhances attack power while lowering Soul Power consumption 27 71.
• Extreme Cold Ice-Armored Bear Soul Spirit — Obtained during her sixth-ring expedition; retains its awareness through the Soul Spirit bond 92.
• Soul Bone from the bear — Left behind during the bonding process. Lin Fan plans to strengthen it before she absorbs it; absorption is not confirmed 92.
• Black jade spatial anchor — Contains Lin Fan’s Martial Soul aura, allowing him to locate it and arrive nearby across great distances 11.
• Hidden Azure Pavilion identity pendant — Membership token that also functions as a communication Soul Tool 31.
• Storage Soul Tool — Used to carry belongings, including the black jade and her Flying Soul Tool 11 13.
• Flying Soul Tool — A winged iron-box device capable of traveling five hundred li per hour; suitable for her use alone 13.

Relationships

• Lin Fan — Former classmate, trusted protector, teacher, pavilion leader, and romantic interest. She leaves Shrek with him and intends to confess once she feels worthy of standing beside him. No completed confession or confirmed couple status is documented 15 23 59 77.
• Leng Yaozhu — Friend, former dormitory roommate, and romantic rival. Ling Luochen helps her settle into Shrek and respects her privacy, but worries that Yaozhu’s proximity to Lin Fan may bring them closer 17 34 83 93.
• Ma Xiaotao — Former Shrek Seven Monsters teammate and captain. Ling Luochen helped suppress her Evil Fire despite openly disliking her 15 56.
• Mu En — Academy elder whose backing contributes to her confidence when challenging Shrek’s teachers 27.
• Zhang Peng — Fellow pavilion member whose Martial Soul defect is cured by a pill she refines. He thanks her directly 62.
• Snow Empress — Ice-control instructor and protector during Far Northern cultivation, acting at Lin Fan’s request 74 86.
• Ice Empress — Initially considered as Ling Luochen’s future Soul Spirit. By their meeting with Huo Yuhao, the Ice Empress has instead taken human form and joined Hidden Azure Pavilion; no contract with Ling Luochen is confirmed 66 70 89.
• Xiao Xiao — Younger pavilion companion whom she warmly welcomes. Xiao Xiao admires her strength and is motivated by her Ultimate Ice breakthrough 61 77.
• Huo Yuhao — Junior acquaintance who encounters her cultivating in the Far Northern Land. She questions why a Spirit Eyes Soul Master would seek a ring there and introduces him to the Ice Empress 88 89.
• Long Yeyue — Future observer who condemns her willingness to leave Shrek and disparages her loyalty to Lin Fan. They do not directly confront one another 32.
