Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Nine-ring Soul Master — documented baseline | 25 | Displays two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red soul rings. His Martial Soul transforms him into a twenty-meter giant. |
| Indestructible Vajra Body | 64 | Consumes the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and an immortal pill from the Aromatic Silk Beauty, repairing weaknesses in his early foundation. Cleanses accumulated toxins and enters seclusion to attempt a Second Soul Core; success is not yet reported. |
| Advanced Poison Cultivation | 109 111 | Xuan Zi recognizes that his Poison Cultivation has improved. Despite no Soul Power breakthrough, Du Busi decisively suppresses him. |
| Complete set of six soul bones; Rank 99-equivalent combat strength | 138 149 | Chen Ming supplies three Hundred-Thousand-Year True Dragon Soul Bones, supplementing Du Busi’s three existing Hundred-Thousand-Year bones. He can contend with Mu En despite not yet reaching Rank 99. |
| First Soul Bone Armor fusion | 173 175 | Uses Myriad Tribulation Return Body to draw his soul bones into his own power during the battle with Tang San’s avatar. All six bones form armor, but he cannot summon it again immediately afterward. |
| Extreme limit / Rank 99; Platinum Rank Second Awakening | 200 202 252 | His breakthrough produces a more harmonious connection with heaven and earth. Platinum Rank Second Awakening fuses Spiritual Power and Soul Power. The later account also associates this milestone with approaching a Demigod Position. |
| Poison-dominated bloodline refinement | 201 | Contaminates the dragon bloodlines within his True Dragon Soul Bones with Poison Cultivation, asserting control over them. Absorbs additional dragon bloodline power in Dragon Valley. |
| Quasi-god combat strength | 228 | Soul Bone Armor brings him to the peak of Douluo Continent’s power. His strength continues integrating during combat with the Demon Empress. |
| Breakthrough to god rank | 250 251 | During his battle with Chen Ming, his fully mobilized power and Soul Bone Armor break through the boundary between mortal and god, triggering a Nine-Colored Tribulation. |
| Level 110; golden Destiny Soul Ring | 251 | Endures more than seven hours of tribulation. His tenth ring condenses, all six soul bones become one with his body, and his armor reaches divine-artifact level. Begins condensing his third and final Soul Core. |
| Body God divine position — attested | 258 | Cultivates while sensing his Body God divine position. Remains concerned that he cannot yet share Chen Ming’s burden against the God Realm’s God Kings. |
Appearance
- Ordinary appearance: An elderly man; when suppressing his Soul Power, he appears no different from an ordinary old man 17.
- Early Martial Soul form: A twenty-meter giant with dark green skin and bulging, granite-like muscles 25.
- Platinum awakening form: A platinum-colored phantom merges into his body before he transforms into a ten-meter giant 202.
- God-level combat form: A golden, hundred-meter giant surrounded by three phantom dragons and gathering Power of Heaven and Earth 251.
Personality
Du Busi is flamboyant, combative, and proud of his disciples. Although he denies enjoying displays of power, Long Aotian expects him to make a grand entrance into Shrek City. He can nevertheless restrain himself when discretion serves his purpose, concealing his Soul Power during a resource-buying trip 17. After reaching the extreme limit, he immediately wants to test himself against powerful opponents 201.
His care for his disciples includes practical caution. He questions whether Chen Ming can withstand the Crimson Phoenix Nirvana Golden Lotus and recommends abandoning a dangerous soul ring when its energy threatens to destroy him 14 26. His tolerance also extends to Huo Yuhao: he welcomes him into the Body Sect without condemning his previous involvement with the Holy Spirit Cult 208.
That protectiveness coexists with extreme ruthlessness. During the Clear Sky Sect assault, he kills indiscriminately—including men, women, children, and elders—at Chen Ming’s insistence. The passage explicitly describes this as his first act of such cruelty and states that it deeply affects him 203. Elsewhere, he advises Chen Ming against detonating nine Fixed Soul Guiding Cannonballs in Mingdu, helping him avoid directly inflicting mass civilian destruction 180.
Abilities & Skills
Complete Body Martial Soul
- His Martial Soul is his entire body rather than an individual body part 26.
- Its ability to strengthen alongside soul-ring absorption allowed him to obtain a Hundred-Thousand-Year seventh ring without relying on soul-bone enhancements 138.
- He can abandon his poisonous energy and fight through pure Soul Power, vitality, and blood energy when facing an unfavorable attribute matchup 34.
Poison Cultivation
- Combines poison with blood and qi, producing dark green energy that is both highly toxic and unusually violent. This approach also mitigates the danger of poisoning himself 8.
- Collects toxins, uses them to temper his body, and absorbs their power. Sunset Forest’s miasma is potent enough that he initially uses it only occasionally rather than treating it as harmless 24.
- Limit: Extreme Ice counters his Poison Cultivation; against the Ice Phoenix, he switches to the pure power of his Body Martial Soul 34.
- Later gives poison absolute dominance over the dragon bloodlines in his soul bones. Higher-level dragon bloodlines cannot automatically suppress him through lineage alone; an opponent must instead be substantially stronger 201.
Martial Soul Second Awakening
- Gold Rank: Used alongside his True Dragon Soul Bones against Tang San’s Sea God avatar. It greatly depletes his origin 171 175.
- Platinum Rank: Achieved upon reaching the extreme limit; explicitly involves the fusion of Spiritual Power and Soul Power 200 202.
- Following his Dragon Valley refinement, incorporates dragon pressure into Spiritual Power as part of this integrated power 202.
Named Combat Skills
| Skill | Documented use or effect |
|---|---|
| Third Soul Skill — Poison Demon Hegemony Body | One of the powerful skills activated when responding to the crisis involving Chen Ming 108. |
| Sixth Soul Skill — Hell Poison Dragon Drill | Forms a poisonous dragon attack against Xuan Zi; later concentrates golden Soul Power into a cone-shaped charging strike against Tang San’s phantom 109 172. |
| Seventh Soul Skill — Martial Soul Avatar | Used in major battles and later combined with his tenth skill to improve the efficiency of his integrated abilities 108 251. |
| Eighth Soul Skill — Death Feast | Activated after Tang San’s Blue Silver Emperor traps him in layered cages; its precise effect is not detailed in the supplied passage 172. |
| Thunderous Twin Dragon Fist | Delivers at least twenty punches in ten seconds against Jing Hongchen. Each punch is comparable to a Rank 98 Super Douluo’s serious Soul Skill attack, repeatedly breaking Hongchen Protection barriers in under five seconds 138. |
| Thunderous Myriad Dragons Fist | Releases countless fist shadows that destroy the Clear Sky Sect’s entrance and buildings, killing or injuring lower-ranked Soul Masters 203. |
Ninth Soul Skill — Myriad Tribulation Return Body
- Spreads poison through his surroundings, then draws the contaminated Heaven and Earth Vital Energy into himself 173 175.
- Extends the principle of claiming power for his own use to his soul bones, producing their first fusion into Soul Bone Armor 173.
- Limit: Its theoretical scope exceeds his actual capacity; he cannot contain an entire world within himself 173.
- Later summons the armor during battles with Tang Zhen and the Clear Sky Sect’s Super Douluo 202 203.
Tenth Soul Skill — Destiny Soul Ring
- Gathers his powers into one whole: his soul rings and skills become instinctive parts of his body, unifying him with his Martial Soul 251.
- When combined with Martial Soul Avatar, permits extremely low-cost use of his soul skills. Chen Ming also suspects that the overlapping effects improve their effectiveness 251.
- His god-level affinity with laws makes controlling Power of Heaven and Earth substantially easier, allowing him to take control of part of the power previously commanded by Chen Ming 251.
Cultivation Knowledge and Mentorship
- Explains the Body Sect’s Poison, Lightning, and Yang-attribute cultivation methods, as well as Unity of Man and Weapon 8.
- Investigates Sunset Forest’s poison formation and identifies the importance of ice in countering its toxins 24 36.
- Recognizes that Chen Ming’s temporary rank-enhancing skills could let other cultivators experience the circulation of higher-level Soul Power before overcoming their bottlenecks 36.
- His theories are not always correct: he attributes Chen Ming’s Heavenly Treasure soul-ring success to the Mental attribute, whereas the passage identifies Chen Ming’s former existence as a soul beast as the decisive factor 16.
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Six Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones — Three original bones supplemented by three True Dragon Soul Bones supplied by Chen Ming 138.
- Soul Bone Armor — Features dragons around both arms and the right leg, mountain-like torso armor, a scorpion-tail design around the left leg, and a crystal helmet 173 202.
- Storage Soul Tool — Used to collect the remaining parts of the Ice Phoenix’s corpse 35.
- Communication Soul Tool — Used to coordinate with Chen Ming, Lei Zhen, and other allies 200 208.
History / Major Arcs
Guiding Chen Ming’s Early Cultivation
Du Busi introduces Chen Ming to the Body Sect’s secret cultivation methods and approves an ice-and-fire soul-ring direction suited to his development 8 13. He supervises Chen Ming’s absorption of the Crimson Phoenix Nirvana Golden Lotus, then changes the group’s itinerary to visit Shrek City 14 15 16.
At the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion, he purchases cultivation resources and refuses to surrender whale rubber that has already been sold to him. His released Soul Power overwhelms the hall, while Lin Huiqun can only partially counter its pressure 17 18. He later supports Chen Ming through the dangerous Star Spirit Deer soul-ring absorption and helps test his new healing ability 26 27.
Extreme North and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes
In the Extreme North, Du Busi secures an ice bear for Long Aotian and captures a seventy-thousand-year Ice Phoenix for Chen Ming 33 35. The encounter demonstrates both his overwhelming physical strength and his willingness to change tactics when Extreme Ice counters his poison 34.
After learning how ice disperses Sunset Forest’s poisonous miasma, he leads his disciples into the hidden valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes 36 37. He remains suspicious of Youyou’s explanations and refuses to leave empty-handed despite recognizing that a god may regard the valley as private property. He takes herb essences and medicinal plants while leaving the soul-beast herbs themselves alive 38.
Challenging Shrek Academy
Du Busi encourages Chen Ming to represent the Body Sect in the Soul Master Competition and damage Shrek’s long-standing prestige 85. When Xuan Zi attacks Chen Ming in Star Luo City, Du Busi intervenes with Hell Poison Dragon Drill. Their clash destroys the Star Luo Grand Hotel 109. He subsequently drives Xuan Zi out of the city and forces him to retreat toward Shrek 110 111.
Later, Du Busi and Chen Ming confront Shrek directly over the Star Luo incident. Du Busi threatens the city with Level Nine Fixed Soul Guiding Cannonballs and fights Mu En, holding his ground despite not yet possessing Rank 99 Soul Power 148 149 153. He demands seven Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones as compensation, together with an additional item owed to Chen Ming 153.
Building the Reincarnation Empire’s Position
Du Busi pressures Xu Jiawei into granting the Body Sect the Star Luo Empire’s three eastern provinces 156. After learning the full scope of Chen Ming’s Reincarnation Empire plans, he helps organize provincial development, recruits sect reinforcements, and seeks a passage through the Endless Volcano 157.
He later withdraws most Body Sect disciples from the Heaven Dou front lines, prioritizing the six eastern provinces as the Reincarnation Empire’s foundation. Taking a smaller elite force, he enters the Sun Moon Empire by sea south of the Ming Dou Mountain Range 167.
Sea God Avatar and Dragon Valley
Du Busi joins Chen Ming in attacking Tang San’s Sea God Spiritual Sense avatar 171 173. During this battle, Myriad Tribulation Return Body unexpectedly fuses his six soul bones into armor. The victory leaves him severely depleted, and Chen Ming treats him with Life Force 173 175.
After reaching the extreme limit, he accompanies Chen Ming to Dragon Valley to intercept Mu En and Long Xiaoyao. Their attempt is obstructed by dragon souls, but Du Busi uses the opportunity to seize control of his dragon bloodlines through poison and absorb further dragon bloodline power 200 201.
Clear Sky Sect Assault and New Recruits
Following Tang Zhen’s attack on Reincarnation Hall, Du Busi and Chen Ming retaliate against the Clear Sky Sect 202 203. Unable to protect Chen Ming while surrounded by Super Douluo, Du Busi follows his disciple’s order to attack the sect’s remaining members. Chen Ming subsequently resurrects and reveals his identities as the Death Emissary and Lord of Reincarnation 203 204.
Du Busi later accepts Huo Yuhao into the Body Sect, examines his mutated Martial Soul, and arranges transport so that he can participate in the campaign against the Star Luo Empire 208.
God-Level Breakthrough
On Reincarnation Continent, Du Busi battles the Demon Empress until Chen Ming blocks the Evil Emperor’s surprise attack 228. He subsequently chooses to pursue godhood through his own power rather than inherit another deity’s position 241.
During the Genius Battle’s final confrontation, Du Busi breaks through while fighting Chen Ming. He survives the Nine-Colored Tribulation, reaches Level 110, and obtains his golden Destiny Soul Ring 250 251. Their resumed battle lasts three days and nights before he concedes defeat, proud that his disciple has surpassed him 251.
By the latest supplied passage, he senses the growing pressure of the God Realm’s approaching reconnection. While cultivating his Body God divine position, he regrets that his progress is still too slow to help Chen Ming face the five God Kings 258.
Relationships
- Chen Ming — Disciple, strategic partner, and later a source of guidance for Du Busi’s own advancement. Chen Ming supplies True Dragon Soul Bones, helps him recover after major battles, and supports his god-level breakthrough 138 175 250 251.
- Long Aotian — Disciple. Du Busi secures soul rings and cultivation resources for him, while their exchanges reveal an informal, occasionally rough manner of teaching 17 33.
- Xuan Zi — Shrek rival. Once considered an approximate match for Du Busi, he is later decisively defeated despite Du Busi having no intervening Soul Power breakthrough 18 111.
- Mu En — Rival and uneasy political counterpart. They fight over Shrek’s treatment of the Body Sect and clash over the sect’s obligations during the continental war 153 167.
- Jing Hongchen — Adversary whose defensive Soul Tools Du Busi overwhelms; later involved in shared operations within the Sun Moon Empire 138 168.
- Snow Empress — Previously saved Du Busi. Their past connection is acknowledged when the group meets her in the God Sealing Platform 142.
- Huo Yuhao — New Body Sect member whom Du Busi welcomes without judging his Holy Spirit Cult history. He offers cultivation options and practical assistance with Huo Yuhao’s personal grievance against the White Tiger Duke 208.
- Lei Zhen — Body Sect associate entrusted with reinforcements, territorial development, and receiving Huo Yuhao in the Star Luo Empire’s rear 157 208.
- Tang San — Divine opponent. Du Busi helps defeat his Sea God avatar and repeatedly disperses and regathers its Spiritual Sense to prevent escape 173.
