Herein, we propose a “microbial enzyme-catalyzed” green synthesis strategy, successfully preparing polymorphic LFPs characterized by a low concentration of antisite defects (< 3 %), resulting in enhanced ion transport and stable cycling performance. The low-concentration antisite defective LFP provided a smooth ion diffusion channel, enhancing both Li<sup>+</sup> diffusion and electron transport to effectively improve kinetics. Additionally, the carbon shell derived from <em>polyphosphorus</em> bacteria improved electrical conductivity and provided space to accommodate the volume expansion of LFP, ultimately enhancing cycling stability. Consequently, LFP@C-7 exhibited excellent Li<sup>+</sup> capture capacity (3.05 mmol g<sup>−1</sup>) and rate (1.01 mmol g<sup>−1</sup>min<sup>−1</sup>), with a high separation factor of 212 (Mg/Li ratio of 60) and excellent cycling stability (capacity retention exceeding 83.3 % over 100 cycles).
