Background

Lin Xuan awakens as a 21-day-old premature infant after transmigrating into a new life. Retaining memories from his previous life, he quickly learns to conceal his abnormal awareness behind the behavior expected of a baby. His first talent, Nutrient Absorption, emerges through repeated feeding. 1

His previous life left him without meaningful family affection, making his new family especially important to him. Although initially unable to help due to his infant body, he resolves to become strong enough to protect Lin Rou and the rest of the Lin family. 10

Despite being perceived as frail because of his Premature Infant title, Lin Xuan trains constantly. By age one, his development already resembles that of a two- or three-year-old; consuming the Crimson Blood Fruit further increases his Constitution from 4.22 to 7.22. 14

Appearance

Lin Xuan was born prematurely and was initially treated by adults as physically weak. Continuous nourishment, martial training, and the Crimson Blood Fruit rapidly changed his body, leaving him far stronger and more developed than other children his age. 14

• Retains and equips the title Premature Infant despite his exceptional physical growth. 7 85
• In Old Earth’s Baichuan Domain, Sheng Naiqi disguises him as a Night Elf with dark-green skin, long pointed ears, serrated teeth, and a black robe and cloak. 80
• His small stature frequently causes others to underestimate him, including Spark Program candidates and Wang Chongtian. 49 60

Personality

Lin Xuan is intensely diligent and treats idle time as an opportunity to improve. Even at kindergarten, he routinely trains instead of playing, while consciously avoiding overly conspicuous techniques such as the True Meaning Swimming Dragon Step. 20

He is cautious about exposing his strength and maturity. After attracting attention with his physical ability, he deliberately keeps a lower profile; later, he intentionally performs only slightly above average during school testing to avoid unnecessary notice. 19 97

Family is his central motivation. Lin Xuan values his second life and the affection of his parents and siblings, and his first explicit long-term ambition is to earn a place in the Spark Program. 10 37

Though generally composed, he acts decisively when others are endangered. He recognizes the threat in Nanmu Town through Evil Thought Detection, warns his team through Lin Xinrui’s mental link, and refuses to dismiss his own judgment even when Hu Shan knows the suspected town chief personally. 76

Abilities & Skills

Martial Arts

Lin Xuan follows the Martial Artist path and relies on speed, technique, and explosive striking rather than a Divinity.

• True Meaning Five Elements Fist — His primary striking art. Its Skyward Cannon sent Bai Yu off a Spark Program platform in one attack. 51
• True Meaning Swimming Dragon Step — A movement technique that greatly enhances his speed; it complements his Toddling talent so well that he avoids using it publicly at kindergarten. 20
• Ladder Cloud Step, Flowing Cloud Body, and Cloud Dispelling Palm — Techniques taught by Pei Ge. Lin Xuan uses Cloud Dispelling Palm to kill a passenger controlled by an Earthbound Spirit. 85 106
• Throw — A mastered ranged skill; by Lv.3, he can reliably strike targets within range. 32

Natural Absorption

The evolved form of Nutrient Absorption allows Lin Xuan to draw in and process energy from his surroundings.

• Chosen over Life Force Plunder because it is more versatile in his environment. 63
• Can absorb hostile energy, including lightning and the effects of Wang Chongtian’s Gravity Divinity. 78 139
• Stores absorbed energy for combat, stamina recovery, and self-replenishment. 139
• Enables rapid healing when sufficient energy is available. 100
• Its effectiveness is limited when the opponent’s power vastly exceeds what he can safely process. 139

Evil Thought Detection

A passive perception skill that senses hostility and malicious intent.

• Detected pervasive malice throughout Nanmu Town and identified Town Chief Duanmu Ci as the strongest source. 76
• Functions on non-humans such as Ogres as well as humans. 76
• Allows Lin Xuan to perceive concealed killing intent, including Ito Akihiko’s hostility after his reincarnation. 140

Other Awareness

A Fourth Realm skill that reveals information about observed targets.

• Identifies a target’s race, profession, conventional combat level, and special notes. 97 123
• Exposed Ito Akihiko as a God Servant of the Faceless Lord. 134
• Cannot fully assess entities far stronger than Lin Xuan; Commander-level targets often appear as question marks. 123 142

Myriad Spirit Understanding

An active skill obtained after advancing to Martial Artist Lv.3.

• Enables mental communication with non-human beings without speech. 84
• Developed through practice among the creatures of Old Earth. 84

Linguistic Talent

Lin Xuan’s Gibberish Learning talent develops through exposure to unfamiliar languages.

• Rapidly established an initial framework for Ogre Language after hearing Two-Headed Ogres speak. 71
• Eventually evolved into the intermediate talent Eloquent. 85

Spatial Potential

Lin Xuan possesses exceptional aptitude for the spatial path, the talent that makes him capable of inheriting Zhao Qiankun’s legacy.

• Recorded 89 spatial compatibility, classified as King-grade. 152
• Zhao Qiankun conceals the true score because revealing it would make Lin Xuan a target for his enemies. 152 195

Equipment

• Puppet General — An upgraded Puppet Soldier modified by Iron Mountain and paired with Origin Artifacts. It can contend with an Upper Commander or temporarily match a Monarch First Heaven for up to ten minutes before disintegrating. 162
• Dimensional Mirror — A mirror capable of communication across realms and worlds; used to contact Zhao Qiankun. 167
• Three-Eyed Uncle’s token — Can summon Three-Eyed Uncle for one intervention within the Great Martial Royal Domain. 162
• Life-Creating Glazed Pills — Emergency healing medicine given by Lin Long. Lin Xuan uses one to heal the Toad King, triggering its advancement. 90
• Red Aunt’s ring — A gift from Red Aunt that Lin Xuan wears during his time in Ba Wu Giant City. 154

Relationships

• Lin Hai — Father; a Public Security Bureau detective who later joins Crimson Flame. Lin Xuan respects his father’s sacrifices and worries about dangers connected to Old Earth. 10 101
• Ye Hongyu — Mother; fiercely protective of Lin Xuan and initially concerned by his extraordinary appetite and frail reputation. 1 6
• Lin Rou — Eldest sister and early martial influence. Her guidance improves his fist training, and her achievements motivate him to cultivate. 11 39
• Lin Wu — Older brother and fellow hidden genius. Lin Wu recognizes that Lin Xuan is pretending to be ordinary and becomes a confidant. 27
• Lin Long — Older sister; a Mystic Scholar who supplies Lin Xuan with valuable emergency medicine. 90 97
• Duo Duo — Childhood friend and frequent protector. She remains close to Lin Xuan from kindergarten into Liangjiang Academy. 17 96

• Xie Yi — Spark Program teammate. He creates the opening that allows Lin Xuan to kill the Ogre Priest and advance his Five Elements Fist. 73
• Pei Ge — Spark Program vice dean and mentor who teaches Lin Xuan several martial arts techniques and repeatedly considers taking him as a direct disciple. 73 85
• Toad King — Treasure Transformation Toad bound to Lin Xuan through an unintended master-servant contract. Initially resentful, it accepts Lin Xuan after witnessing his growth. 90 154
• Su A’lei — Friend and rival from Taiyuan Base. The two share a mischievous rapport and cooperate against Wang Chongtian and the Earth Armor Clan. 123 181
• Wang Chongtian — Rival Spark student and Wang Family prodigy. His Gravity Divinity is ineffective against Natural Absorption, leading to his defeat by Lin Xuan. 60 139
• Zhao Qiankun — Lin Xuan’s true master and closed-door mentor in the spatial path. He conceals Lin Xuan’s identity and talent to protect both him and Earth Origin Star. 150 155
• Iron Mountain — Artifact Craftsman and master of the Cast Iron Tower; accepts Lin Xuan as his seventh apprentice and modifies his Puppet Soldier. 160 162
• Jack — Cyclops ally who protects Lin Xuan and sends Jia Ke Yi flying with a single punch. 173

Story Role / Major Arcs

Spark Program

Lin Xuan enters the Spark Program assessment at age three as its youngest participant. He uses the opportunity to cultivate, defeats Bai Yu with a single Skyward Cannon, and passes the assessment while setting a new age record. 49 51 54

During special training, he advances his major martial arts techniques through real combat. His killing of an Ogre Priest advances True Meaning Five Elements Fist to Lv.3, while the resulting mastery of multiple Lv.3 techniques elevates him to the Third Realm. 73 84

Old Earth Practical Training

In Nanmu Town, Lin Xuan’s Evil Thought Detection exposes a town-wide threat before the rest of his group recognizes it. His warning allows Hu Shan’s group to prepare an escape from the controlled townspeople. 76 78

He later heals the Toad King with a Life-Creating Glazed Pill. The Toad King advances to Upper War General and accidentally forms a master-servant contract with him, earning Lin Xuan the title Lord of Beasts. 90

Earth Origin Star Calamities

After returning home, Lin Xuan gains Other Awareness and uses it to identify threats disguised as ordinary people. During the Liangjiang Academy Calamity incident, the Toad King absorbs the Calamity, and Lin Xuan publicly reveals his partner’s existence. 97 101

Ba Wu Giant City Exchange

Lin Xuan competes for an under-ten exchange spot to Ba Wu Giant City while nearing the Martial Arts Fifth Realm. He confronts Ito Akihiko, exposes his connection to the Faceless Church, and defeats Wang Chongtian after absorbing the latter’s Gravity Divinity. 122 134 139

Zhao Qiankun’s Disciple

After arriving in Ba Wu Giant City, Lin Xuan unintentionally absorbs power at the city gate and attracts Zhao Qiankun’s attention. Zhao takes him as a disciple after discovering Lin Xuan’s extraordinary spatial affinity, but keeps the relationship secret to prevent enemies from targeting Earth Origin Star. 150 152 155

Lin Xuan also becomes Iron Mountain’s seventh apprentice, gaining access to artifact-crafting instruction and the resources of the Cast Iron Tower. 160 167

Two Realms Mountain

Zhao Qiankun later summons Lin Xuan to Two Realms Mountain, a cultivation holy land formed from two refined realms. Lin Xuan continues training there under his master’s guidance, determined to become strong enough to protect his family without relying forever on others. 193
