Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Level 90 — first Soul Core | 114 117 | Retrospectively established as the point at which he condensed his first Soul Core, following the era’s standard cultivation sequence. |
| Level 98 Super Douluo | 42 50 | His established realm before learning Su Fan’s advanced Aperture techniques. He had remained at this level for many years. |
| 108 Apertures — bloodline and spatial breakthrough | 50 | Materializes Bloodline Power, purifies his toxin-contaminated bloodline, and strengthens his poison arts. Aperture resonance enlarges his single Soul Core and grants Limit Douluo-level spatial affinity, though his soul power remains below that realm. |
| Level 99 Limit Douluo — dual Soul Cores | 63 64 69 | Completes his breakthrough during seclusion in a small Sun Moon Empire city. His 108 Apertures become extensions of his two Soul Cores. |
| Completed Heavenly Circuit Apertures | 75 | Established as complete before his Soul Core transfer; the Soul Aperture Method and Silk Beauty Immortal Pill support the next step. |
| Mental Soul Core transfer — Pseudo-Triple Soul Core | 75 76 | Dissipates his original first Soul Core while forming a Mental Soul Core. Heavenly Circuit Apertures replace the lost core’s function, producing power comparable to three Soul Cores while retaining only two actual cores. |
| Poison refinement through Ice Extreme Divine Crystal | 90 | Strips and refines his poison attribute, stabilizing his cultivation and preparing for further growth. |
| Spiritual domain | 103 | His manifested spiritual domain gives Su Fan insight into reorganizing Soul Aperture circulation. |
| Enhanced Limit Douluo soul power | 114 117 | Repeated small-scale re-cultivations using Ice Extreme Divine Crystal increase his soul power beyond ordinary dual-core Limit Douluos. Combined with his simulated third core, this lets him overwhelm Long Xiaoyao. |
| Spiritual power with Divine Origin characteristics | 131 | Underworld Soul Liquid gives his spiritual power some characteristics of the Divine Origin Realm, although he has not reached that realm. |
| God-level combat power | 133 138 | His fusion of spiritual power, soul power, and blood qi surpasses god-level standards. Their convergence pushes his combat power beyond the god-level boundary, without establishing a level-100 realm breakthrough or a completed true third Soul Core. |
History
Stagnation and renewed cultivation
After spending many years at level 98 with no visible route forward, Du Busi lost much of his motivation to cultivate. He increasingly devoted himself to nurturing disciples and developing the Body Sect. Su Fan’s exceptional Body Martial Soul talent arrived during this period, prompting him to invest heavily in the new disciple 50.
Their instruction became reciprocal. Du Busi provided protection and Body Sect techniques, while Su Fan shared advanced Aperture knowledge beyond the foundational teachings available to the wider continent. These insights restored Du Busi’s cultivation drive and opened a path beyond his longstanding bottleneck 45 48 50.
Sun Moon Empire infiltration and Mingde Hall raid
After the Soul Master Tournament, Du Busi accompanied Su Fan to the Sun Moon Empire to obtain a hundred-thousand-year fifth soul ring. He also sought the soul beast embryo held by the Sun Moon Royal Team. The interception failed because automated Soul Tools simulated the team’s signatures and repeatedly diverted the pursuers 40 41.
In the Jingyang Mountain Range, Du Busi defeated the hundred-thousand-year Silver Moon Wolf Emperor. Its seven-element counterattack wounded him through his energy shield; he retaliated brutally before leaving the finishing blow to Su Fan, who obtained its soul ring and soul bone 42 43 44.
Du Busi then pursued the embryo inside Mingde Hall. He negotiated with Su Qian to secure Su Fan’s disguised identity as Su Yu and permission for fifty Body Sect members to enter the empire. These arrangements also supported a recruitment network for Body Martial Soul masters 45 46 47.
After becoming a Limit Douluo, he immediately exploited the diversion caused by his breakthrough to attack Mingde Hall. While he occupied its defenses, Elder Qilin retrieved the embryo through an underground tunnel. Du Busi used Su Fan’s prepared teleportation measure to regroup, then broke the spatial blockade with his Gold-Grade Second Awakening 63 64 65.
The raid changed his assessment of Soul Tools. Mingde Hall’s artillery and stockpile of Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shells threatened even his new realm. Discovering Long Xiaoyao and numerous Evil Soul Masters in the black market convinced him to withdraw promptly rather than prolong the operation 65 66.
Immortal herbs and the path toward godhood
Du Busi accompanied Su Fan to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, coerced its resident soul beasts into supplying refinement materials, and investigated its immortal herbs while Su Fan cultivated. He had previously practiced poison arts in the surrounding miasma but abandoned the location because of its extreme pain 68 69.
Learning that Tang San claimed the well briefly unsettled him, but did not stop him from taking its treasures. He allocated herbs according to the needs of Body Sect disciples and viewed Apertures, Soul Apertures, and a future third Soul Core as the foundation for pursuing godhood 69 71.
His subsequent Soul Core transfer established a new cultivation technique: using Heavenly Circuit Apertures to replace a Soul Core’s function. This both strengthened him and provided experience that Su Fan and other sect members could apply to their own cultivation 75 76 130.
Conflict with Tang San and the Holy Spirit Cult
When Tang San’s divine sense probed Snow Demon Mountain, Du Busi resisted with his Mental Soul Core, aided by Su Fan and Electrolux. He later defeated Niu Tian, severely damaging his origin; Tang San’s intervention distracted Du Busi long enough for Niu Tian to escape 98 99.
Rather than remain confined by divine surveillance, Du Busi accepted Su Fan’s proposal to move the sect’s disciples into the Sun Moon Empire and seek external support. The disciples resumed recruitment while Du Busi, Su Fan, and Electrolux approached the Evil Emperor and then the Holy Spirit Cult 104 106 113.
At the cult’s headquarters, Du Busi condemned Long Xiaoyao for sheltering Evil Soul Masters and attacked him and Ye Xishui. His enhanced Pseudo-Triple Soul Core overwhelmed Long Xiaoyao, while Electrolux purified the souls sustaining Ye Xishui’s cultivation. Du Busi and Su Fan pursued the wounded pair into the ocean, but ultimately failed to finish them 113 114 117 121.
Auspicious Beast hunt and Beast Tide
In Shrek City, Du Busi detected abnormalities in Wang Qiu’er’s transformed body and pursued her when she fled. He struck her down with soul power, then confronted the Shrek elders drawn by the fighting 131 132.
His Poison Dragon Energy Wave overwhelmed Xuan Zi and threatened Shrek Academy until the Golden Ancient Tree intervened. Du Busi and Electrolux subsequently obstructed Tang San while Su Fan escaped with Wang Qiu’er’s corpse to absorb her soul ring 132.
During negotiations over the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Du Busi refused to surrender the sect’s gains. He used the prospect of condensing a true third Soul Core—and thereby challenging the plane’s limits—as leverage against Tang San. He later fought Di Tian during the Beast Tide 138 139 141.
When a presence stronger than Di Tian stirred within the Star Dou Great Forest, Du Busi prepared to make that breakthrough if it intervened. His purpose was to provoke a response from the deities concerned about Douluo Planet’s advancement, rather than assume he could defeat the unknown opponent himself 143.
Appearance
- Normal stature: Over two meters tall 113.
- Giant form: Expands beyond ten meters during the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor battle and reaches fifty meters against the Holy Spirit Cult 42 113.
- Energy coloration: His soul power is dark green; materialized Bloodline Power adds crimson strands 50.
- Awakening manifestation: His body turns ink-green before golden light and a massive golden silhouette appear during his clash with Tang San 133.
- Alterable face: Can reshape his facial skin and features almost instantly 45.
Personality
Du Busi is bold, forceful, and impatient with excessive deliberation. When weighing the risks of a second Soul Core breakthrough, he quickly chooses to attempt it rather than accept continued stagnation. He likewise responds to the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor’s threats by deciding that his strength makes further argument unnecessary 42 51.
His generosity toward disciples coexists with severe ruthlessness. He hunts rare soul rings for Su Fan, protects him from dangerous missions, and respects his secrets. Yet he tortures the Wolf Emperor after being wounded and privately considers lethal force an acceptable answer to a disciple betraying the sect 42 50 63 130.
He strongly dislikes restraint and rejects hypocrisy. Tang San’s surveillance frustrates him because it confines him to Snow Demon Mountain, while Long Xiaoyao’s role as the Holy Spirit Cult’s protector disgusts him despite his own refusal to claim that he is a good man 100 113.
His confidence does not eliminate tactical caution. He withdraws from Ming Capital when its hidden threats outweigh the benefits of staying, and he refuses to force Su Fan into a politically dangerous exchange program 65 88.

- Expands his physique to fight large soul beasts and transformed opponents 42 113.
- Displays precise bodily control sufficient to reshape his face; teaches this disguise technique to Su Fan 45.

- Used against the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor’s seven-element attack 42.
- Deployed while testing his Limit Douluo strength against Mingde Hall’s defenses 64.

Heavenly Circuit Apertures and Soul Core Substitution
Du Busi develops Su Fan’s Aperture teachings into a method for supporting and replacing Soul Core functions 50 75.
- Amplifies soul power circulation, eruption, and recovery through resonance with his cores 50.

- Detects disharmony in Wang Qiu’er’s transformation despite the absence of an obvious soul beast aura 131.
- Limitation: Resisting Tang San’s divine sense requires assistance and causes heavy mental exhaustion 98.

- Shatters Mingde Hall’s blockade with a single punch 65.
- Adds a golden manifestation to his layered amplification against Tang San 133.
