Background

Lin Feng was an ordinary Blue Star citizen before he fell asleep while watching an Avengers film and awakened in the cave where Tony Stark was imprisoned. His newly activated system assigned him to help Tony forge the first Iron Man armor, granting him a portion of Superman’s power in advance. After escaping with Tony, he temporarily lived in Tony’s villa because he had no legal identity or home in the Marvel universe. 1

Before transmigrating, Lin Feng had grown up in an orphanage and later bought a small home in Fengdong after finding work as an adult. Returning there in soul form years later, he found the home untouched but abandoned and reflected on his isolation from his former life. 217

Appearance

Lin Feng is a black-haired, black-eyed East Asian man. He publicly operates as Superman and commonly wears a black Superman suit designed to support his Kryptonian physiology. 4 133

• The Black Superman Suit recovers stamina, heals injuries, and improves solar-radiation absorption. 4
• As Shanhai, he adopts the appearance, mannerisms, and arrogant persona of a Black Robes operative to conceal his true identity. 594
• The Radiant Symbiote can spread across his body as a black combat suit. 655

Personality

Lin Feng is fiercely independent. He rejected both S.H.I.E.L.D. membership and the Avengers Initiative, though he accepted a paid arrangement as outside support when needed. He dislikes institutional control and generally responds to threats with direct confidence. 20

Despite his overwhelming power, he prefers to preserve the enjoyment of discovery rather than solve every problem instantly. He deliberately investigated Dapus’s world through local information instead of using abilities that could have revealed its entire history at once. 535

His rapid growth initially made him arrogant and overly reliant on destructive force. After the Ancient One confronted this weakness, he began pursuing magic and soul cultivation to develop beyond physical strength alone. 445 454

• Protects allies and civilians, while remaining willing to kill enemies he considers irredeemably dangerous. 16 84
• Enjoys teasing friends and treating extraordinary situations casually. 10 768
• Is strategically patient when infiltrating enemies, often using deception, intimidation, and false personas rather than brute force. 427 642
• Can become ruthless when people exploit his tolerance or threaten those under his protection. 535 658

Abilities & Skills

Kryptonian Physiology

Lin Feng’s core powers originate from his optimized Kryptonian bloodline and yellow-star exposure.

• Superhuman strength and durability — Survived Obadiah Stane’s rockets without injury and killed the Iron Monger with a single sound-barrier-breaking punch. 4
• Flight — Initially struggled to land safely, creating a crater during his first rescue of Tony; later used flight routinely for interplanetary travel. 4 16
• Bio-Force Field — Shields him against extreme attacks and can be strengthened with the Heart of the Universe Fragment. 4 653
• Heat Vision and Freeze Breath — Among the signature abilities detectable through Ophelia’s information-reading power. 597
• Super Hearing, Super Vision, and X-Ray Vision — Uses them for citywide monitoring, locating enemies, and seeing through fortified structures. 3 5 537
• Super Sensing — Detects threats, concealed enemies, and distant targets; later helped him track targets across immense distances. 211 515

Evolution System

The Evolution System is dedicated to evolving Lin Feng’s Kryptonian bloodline into “the strongest Superman.”

• Converts public gratitude, attention, crisis resolution, and completed quests into Reputation Points. 3
• Allows Reputation Points to upgrade his Superman template or purchase stronger templates and System Shop items. 3
• Initially granted him access to a Level 1 System Shop with 10 Reputation Points. 3
• Rewarded his intervention against Obadiah with 1,000,000 Reputation Points and the Black Superman Suit. 4

Belief-Activated Abilities

Lin Feng discovered that intense belief and self-hypnosis can unlock powers he accepts as innate.

• Fire manipulation — Generates, shapes, extinguishes, and enlarges flames at will. 188
• Temperature control — Can create white-hot flames capable of melting rock. 188
• Flame constructs — Formed a giant sword of fire that cut into and melted a barren planet’s ground. 188

• Size manipulation — Can grow to enormous size or shrink to ant-like scale, including altering individual body parts. 189
• Innate invisibility and short-range spatial traversal — Developed beyond the limited invisibility originally provided by his ring. 189

Magic and Soul Techniques

Lin Feng sought magical training specifically to temper his soul, not merely to gain more offensive power.

• Soul projection — Can remove his soul from his body himself; his body retains subconscious movement and defensive capacity while vacant. 454
• Portal magic — Overcame his initial inability to use a Sling Ring and quickly learned to open portals. 456
• Spell mastery — Learned Kamar-Taj’s teachings within roughly a week, developed creative spell variations, and surpassed every other Earth sorcerer besides the Ancient One. 456
• Magical armaments — Created a golden Gatling-gun-like weapon and can combine magic with his immense energy reserves for extreme destructive output. 456 458
• Soul cultivation — Used starlight, Soul Stones, the Radiant Magic Book, and Star Rivers to strengthen his soul. 475 495
• Death Attacks — Uses techniques such as Avada Kedavra and modified Black Magic that can damage or destroy both body and soul. 652 658

Spatial, Temporal, and Mental Abilities

• Instant Transmission — Teleports across vast distances, leaving Tony unable to follow even with stealth armor and predictive tracking. 475
• Telekinesis — Can make others fly and restrain or weaken enemies for allies to finish. 211
• Time manipulation — Possesses time-related abilities that made S.P.E.A.R. regard him as potentially godlike. 137
• Memory manipulation — Erased and later restored Stakar’s memories with a snap of his fingers. 515
• Cloning — Created more than one hundred clones, each possessing roughly 30% of his strength; Shanhai is one such clone. 541
• Memory synchronization — Shares memories with Shanhai nearly instantaneously, allowing either to replace the other without breaking cover. 594 618

Overclocking

Using the Heart of the Universe through his Superman Bracers, Lin Feng can enter an enhanced Overclocking state.

• Greatly raises perception, combat power, and control over time and space. 760
• Allows him to override Zero’s authority over time and space within Zero’s own domain. 760
• Removes much of the state’s former duration limit and backlash because of Lin Feng’s reborn body and the Heart of the Universe’s support. 760

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Superman Bracers — Enhance physical ability and senses; later house the Heart of the Universe. 211 760
• Infinity Stones — Includes, at minimum, the Space Stone, Soul Stones, Power Stone, and Reality Stone. 51 211 495 517
• Heart of the Universe Fragment — Amplifies his defenses, perception, and attacks, but may overheat after extreme output. 424 655
• Radiant Magic Book — A protective spellbook containing beneficial magic, rare materials, and soul-cultivation methods. 476

Independent Hero and Cosmic Traveler

Lin Feng refuses formal membership in S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers, agreeing only to act as an independent ally for sufficient compensation. 20

Black Robes Infiltration

Lin Feng creates Shanhai as a clone identity and uses him to infiltrate the Black Robes. The organization unknowingly assigns Shanhai to monitor Lin Feng himself, allowing Lin Feng to gain internal maps, mission records, and intelligence networks. 540 541 542

During the Special Selection, Lin Feng—acting as Shanhai—overwhelms competitors, clears the second stage in one day, and is directly promoted into the Auxiliary Group. Multiple First Sequence faction leaders then attempt to recruit him. 645 646 648
