English term or phrase: Ti or "Deity Above"
神々を統べる神を表す中国語を英語表記したものなのですが、TiもDeity Aboveもどのような日本語表現が存在するのかまったく分かりません。ご存知の方がいらっしゃれば、ご教示ください。

Explanation:I have no idea what kind of Japanese expression exists for either Ti or Deity Above, which is the English form of the Chinese word for God who rules the gods. If anyone knows, please let me know.

帝/天
Explanation:
It's not exactly pronounced the same way as in your example, but it's close enough that I think it's a corruption of either 天 or 帝, with 帝 probably more likely. Conceptually, it's an exact match.
