Chapters 85–86	Failed breakthrough attempts	Du Busi repeatedly attempted to fuse a second Soul Core and reach Rank 99, but his grief over Du Bisi, concern for the Body Sect, and lack of a secure successor prevented him from reaching the necessary mental state. 85 86 141
Chapters 141–142	Rank 99 Limit Douluo	After entrusting the Secrets of the Body to Ye An and releasing his long-held burdens, Du Busi successfully fused In-Phase Resonance Twin Soul Cores and entered the Limit Douluo realm. 141 142

Background

Du Busi grew up alongside his elder brother, Du Bisi, who supported the Body Sect during their youth. The brothers traveled the continent and gained a notorious reputation for provoking conflicts with other clans and sects. One such dispute with the Mo and Xiao families was ultimately settled through Du Busi's teacher; Du Busi later regarded the families' restraint as a favor he owed. 93 99

After Du Bisi was killed by Mu En, Du Busi inherited the burden of leading the Body Sect. His brother's death and the sect's need for successors made him place great importance on discovering and nurturing exceptional Body Martial Soul users. 15 23

For many years, Du Busi's hatred of Mu En, anxiety over the Body Sect's future, and concern over finding a worthy successor weighed on his state of mind. Although his physical foundation, spiritual power, Soul Rings, and Soul Bones were sufficient for a breakthrough, these emotional burdens repeatedly prevented him from fusing his second Soul Core. 141

Ye An's emergence as the Body Sect's Young Sect Master eventually allowed Du Busi to relinquish much of this burden. After entrusting Ye An with the Secrets of the Body and recognizing his disciple as a successor capable of surpassing previous sect masters, Du Busi finally achieved the Rank 99 Limit Douluo realm. 140 141 142

Appearance

Du Busi is a towering, powerfully built man with an overbearing presence. Though nearly two meters tall, he is partly bald and has unusually smooth, baby-like skin. 2

• Build: Broad, muscular, and imposing even without releasing his Martial Soul. 2
• Martial Soul True Body: Expands to more than ten times his normal size, with dark-green skin and granite-like muscles. 69
• Enhanced True Body: When fighting Xuan Zi, his transformed body expanded beyond one hundred meters in height and generated attacks such as a green sphere of light more than thirty meters wide. 81
• Presence: His aura alone can terrify high-level Soul Masters and draw the attention of powerful Soul Beasts. 54 69
• Limit Douluo Pressure: After reaching Rank 99, he could suppress Scarlet King, a Ferocious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, so completely that the latter could barely resist. 158

Personality

Du Busi is an exceptionally perceptive judge of talent. He immediately recognized Ye An's Twin Body Martial Souls as an unprecedented opportunity for the Body Sect, personally accepted him as a disciple, and designed an intensive cultivation plan around his potential. 2 5

As a mentor, he is demanding but protective. He teaches his disciples the Body Sect's core techniques, supervises dangerous cultivation, and prioritizes their safety when confronting threats beyond their current strength. 15 17 20

Du Busi is deeply gratified by loyalty and familial attachment. Ye An's concern for the village chief who raised him strengthened Du Busi's favorable impression of his new disciple, while his own recruitment methods frequently turn talented children into Ye An's nominal relatives so they can remain in the Body Sect despite its traditional restrictions. 2 4 64 65

As sect master, Du Busi is domineering, pragmatic, and willing to use intimidation or extortion to secure resources for the Body Sect. He frames his actions as protecting his disciples and sect, but his demands against the Dragon Sects and Xuanming Sect are deliberately overwhelming. 54 56 108

Despite his reputation, he is capable of gratitude and restraint. He rescued Mo Xiao and Xiao Mu without demanding payment, considering the intervention repayment for an old debt to their families. 99

Following Ye An's return from the Sun Moon Empire, Du Busi becomes more receptive to reforms that would once have contradicted the Body Sect's traditions. Although he previously disdained most Soul Tools, he permits Ye An to advocate for Soul Tool development and orders the sect's experts to recruit Soul Engineers from the Sun Moon Empire. 87 138 140

After becoming a Limit Douluo, Du Busi remains more cautious than Ye An and Zhang Lexuan. Although he initially wishes to attack Shrek Academy and avenge his brother immediately, he chooses to strengthen the Body Sect's disciples, Soul Tool technology, and institutional foundation before beginning a direct war. 142

Abilities & Skills

Rank 99 Limit Douluo

Du Busi is a Rank 99 Limit Douluo and one of the continent's foremost human Soul Masters. He successfully reached the Ultimate Realm by fusing In-Phase Resonance Twin Soul Cores after overcoming the psychological burdens that had long prevented his advancement. 141 142

• His Soul Ring configuration consists of two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red Soul Rings. 69
• He possesses three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, including a red seventh ring. 69
• He possesses a complete set of Soul Bones, including at least three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones. 141 142
• His Body Martial Soul has undergone a Golden-Grade Second Awakening, greatly surpassing ordinary Body Soul Masters. 79
• Before his breakthrough, he remained stalled at Rank 98 despite possessing sufficient physical strength, spiritual power, Soul Rings, Soul Bones, and cultivation foundation. 85 86 141
• His breakthrough changed the balance between the Body Sect and Shrek Academy; Mu En judged that he could no longer defeat Du Busi outside Shrek Academy and the protection of the Golden Ancient Tree. 141
• His Limit Douluo aura was sufficient to overwhelm Scarlet King, a powerful Ferocious Beast guarding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. 158

Martial Soul True Body and Physical Combat

Du Busi's Body Martial Soul makes his body itself an overwhelming weapon. In Martial Soul True Body form, he enlarges dramatically and releases immense dark-green pressure. 69 79

• Injured the Rank 98 Super Douluo Xuan Zi and allowed him to flee so Shrek Academy would be forced to respond. 81
• Expanded to more than one hundred meters while fighting Xuan Zi and used a massive green light sphere to overwhelm him. 81
• Defeated an Azure Luan-like Soul Beast with a single palm strike, saving Mo Xiao and Xiao Mu. 99
• His pressure forced Tianlong Douluo into a cold sweat before a fight even began. 54
• His aura was strong enough to summon the Snow Empress and Ice Empress from the Far North. 69
• After reaching Rank 99, he suppressed Scarlet King through aura alone, preventing the Ferocious Beast from mounting an effective defense. 158

Body Tempering Method

Du Busi teaches the Body Sect's foundational Body Tempering Method, which improves a disciple's physical constitution and raises the age limit of Soul Rings they can absorb. 5

• Uses medicinal baths, body tempering, Whale Glue, and Hurricane Cave trials as parts of a planned progression. 5
• Teaches that a stronger body is essential to a Body Martial Soul's Second Awakening. 5
• Permitted Zhang Lexuan, who lacks a Body Martial Soul, to use the method and train in Hurricane Cave as Ye An's family member. 4 5
• Uses the Body Sect's specialized body-tempering environment to prepare disciples such as Ye An and Long Aotian to absorb Soul Rings beyond ordinary age limits. 11 24

Spiritual Power Refinement

Du Busi teaches a Body Sect spiritual-power cultivation method necessary for Second Awakening and advanced Hurricane Cave training. 15

• Observation — memorize a chosen object in detail. 15
• Meditation — recreate the object mentally while circulating soul power. 15
• Resonance — make one's spiritual power resonate with the recreated object. 15

Unity of Heaven and Man

Unity of Heaven and Man is the Body Sect's core secret art. It allows the body, soul power, breathing, and spiritual power to resonate with the surrounding world, releasing a cultivator's potential and improving spiritual power. 16 17

• Its full power normally requires a Body Sect disciple to be at least twelve years old and to have completed the Second Awakening of their Body Martial Soul. 17
• Du Busi revealed and explained the technique to Ye An because of his extraordinary potential. 16 19
• He recognizes its compatibility with Ye An's Blood Qi Battle Techniques, which can stack with Unity of Heaven and Man to produce far greater enhancements. 88

Talent Identification and Cultivation Planning

Du Busi possesses extensive knowledge of Body Martial Souls, Soul Rings, Second Awakening, and physical cultivation. He can identify unusual talent quickly and develop specialized plans even for Martial Souls outside the Body Sect's conventional expertise. 2 5 11

• Identified Ye An's White Bone and Heart Martial Souls as Twin Body Martial Souls of unprecedented potential. 2
• Recognized the Heart Martial Soul as an exceptionally supreme Body Martial Soul and understood the potential of Ye An using both Martial Souls simultaneously. 2
• Conducted research into Zhang Lexuan's non-Body Martial Soul before advising her on suitable Soul Beast choices. 11
• Identified Ye Guyi's Angel Martial Soul as a powerful countermeasure against Evil Soul Masters and recruited her after saving her life. 63
• Recognized Wen Shan's Bronze-Grade Second Awakening and arranged for Mysterious Eye Douluo to take him as a disciple. 137
• Evaluated Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo's identical Hair Martial Souls as potentially capable of powerful coordinated abilities through their shared talent and mental synchronization. 137

Leadership and Negotiation

Du Busi uses the Body Sect's strength to obtain resources, recruit talent, and arrange long-term advantages for its members.

• Forced the Heavenly Dragon Sect and Earth Dragon Sect to provide compensation after Yu Tianqi injured Ye An. 53 56
• Claimed the Cold Spring, Ice God's Crystals, and Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Ice Marrow for the Body Sect. 58 59 60
• Negotiated with the Snow Empress for willing Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrifices in exchange for Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Ice Marrow. 71 73 75
• Threatened the Xuanming Sect with destruction before demanding its remaining Mysterious Water Pills, Black Tortoise Divine Pills, and their prescriptions. 107 108
• Later leveraged the Body Sect's control over pill production to extort a further twenty million Gold Soul Coins from the Xuanming Sect. 146
• Allowed Ye An to preside over a high-level sect meeting concerning Soul Tool development and ultimately supported the Body Sect's transition from seclusion to active Soul Engineer recruitment. 138 140
• Ordered Body Sect experts to enter the Sun Moon Empire, recruit or capture high-level Soul Engineers, and locate promising Body Martial Soul possessors regardless of cost. 140 142
• Ordered that the recruitment mission prioritize the survival of Body Sect members despite the competitive reward arrangement among the Titled Douluo. 140
• Entrusted Ye An with the Secrets of the Body, the Body Sect's sole record of generations of knowledge concerning Body Martial Souls, physical and spiritual tempering, and battle techniques. 140

Relationships

• Du Bisi — Elder brother and previous Body Sect leader. His death at Mu En's hands drove Du Busi's hostility toward Shrek Academy and made succession a central concern. 15 23 141
• Ye An — First and most favored disciple; Du Busi named him the Body Sect's Young Sect Master and sees him as the sect's greatest hope. Du Busi eventually entrusts him with the Secrets of the Body and believes he may become a god rather than merely a Limit Douluo. 2 24 75 88 140
• Zhang Lexuan — Disciple and Ye An's designated child bride/family member. Du Busi offers protection for her revenge and supports her cultivation despite the sect's usual admission rules. He later brings her to the Mo and Xiao families to seek spiritual cultivation resources beneficial to her Soul Bone abilities. 4 15 143
• Long Aotian — Du Busi's final direct disciple, recruited after awakening a top-tier Skin Martial Soul with Innate Full Soul Power. 23 26
• Jin Peng — Golden Body Douluo and deputy sect master; Du Busi's trusted lieutenant in guarding and training the sect's younger generation. Jin Peng also assists in implementing Du Busi's plans to recruit Soul Engineers and secure rare resources. 11 26 146
• Yu Bo — A senior Body Sect powerhouse trusted to guard the Cold Spring and Ice God's Crystal, accompany Ye An and Zhang Lexuan in secret, and oversee the Body Sect's Pill Hall. 60 109 146
• Mysterious Eye Douluo — Body Sect elder whom Du Busi supports in accepting Wen Shan as a disciple. 137
• Ye Guyi — Angel Martial Soul user rescued from an Evil Soul Master. Du Busi recruited her for her potential against Evil Soul Masters and placed her in the sect as Ye An's little sister. 63 64
• Mu En — Longstanding enemy responsible for Du Bisi's death. Du Busi regards Shrek Academy as a rival and seeks to surpass its influence; after reaching Rank 99, he chooses to delay direct vengeance until the Body Sect is stronger. 15 81 142
• Snow Empress — Negotiating counterpart in the Far North; Du Busi used Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Ice Marrow to pressure her into a Soul Beast sacrifice agreement. After his breakthrough, she becomes more wary of his Limit Douluo cultivation but continues to honor the agreement. 71 73 147
• Mo and Xiao families — Former rivals from Du Busi's youth. He later rescued Mo Xiao and Xiao Mu as repayment for past kindness, then personally visited their hidden settlement to seek the Mo Family's Soul-Calming Method for Ye An and Zhang Lexuan. 93 99 143
• Scarlet King — Ferocious Beast protector of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Scarlet King attempted to bar Du Busi's group from approaching the Auspicious Beast but was overwhelmed by Du Busi's Limit Douluo aura. 158
• Three-Eyed Golden Lion — The Emperor Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest. Du Busi briefly considers the potential value of obtaining her fortune for Ye An, but recognizes that her special status and relatively low cultivation make such a plan impractical. 158

Story Role / Major Arcs

Recruiting the Body Sect's New Generation

Du Busi discovers Ye An during a village Martial Soul awakening, drives off a suspicious Soul Master, and accepts Ye An after confirming his Twin Body Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power. He subsequently recruits or shelters Zhang Lexuan, Long Aotian, Vina, and Ye Guyi, building a new generation around Ye An. 2 4 23 26 63

Du Busi continues this policy by welcoming Wen Shan and the Lan sisters to the Body Sect. He recognizes Wen Shan's rare Body Martial Soul potential and supports his acceptance as Mysterious Eye Douluo's disciple, while allowing the Lan sisters to remain in Ye An's palace during their initial settlement. 137

Training Ye An and Zhang Lexuan

He oversees Ye An's Body Tempering Method, Hurricane Cave trial, Soul Ring hunts, spiritual-power cultivation, and early Second Awakening. His guidance enables Ye An to obtain a millennium-level first Soul Ring, achieve a Silver-Tier Second Awakening, and prepare for higher-level Soul Rings. 5 11 15 18 19

Du Busi also recognizes the growth of Ye An's self-created Blood Qi Battle Techniques. Upon witnessing Heart-Stirring Divine Court and its potential to combine with Unity of Heaven and Man, he concludes that Ye An's ultimate potential may reach godhood. 88

Dragon Sect Compensation and the Cold Spring

After Ye An is harmed by Yu Tianqi, Du Busi leads Body Sect powerhouses to the Heavenly Dragon Sect and Earth Dragon Sect. He extracts massive compensation, claims their Cold Spring, and secures the Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Ice Marrow for Body Sect cultivation and future bargaining. 53 56 58 60

Far North Negotiations

Du Busi approaches the Snow Empress and Ice Empress in the Far North, offering Ten-Thousand-Year Mysterious Ice Marrow in exchange for Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts willing to sacrifice themselves. He ultimately agrees to receive five such sacrifices, intending to allocate three to Ye An. 69 73 75

After Ye An reaches Rank 60 and the Snow Empress does not immediately respond regarding the next sacrificial Soul Beast, Du Busi refuses to wait indefinitely. He personally leads Jin Peng and Yu Bo on another expedition to the Far North to secure Ye An's sixth Soul Ring. 146 147

Conflict with Shrek Academy

Du Busi confronts Xuan Zi after Shrek's Inspection Corps acts in Guler Village, using the incident to retaliate for the longstanding conflict caused by Du Bisi's death. He later considers breaking through to Rank 99 to secure the Body Sect against Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult. 79 81 86

After becoming a Limit Douluo, Du Busi initially considers attacking Shrek Academy immediately. He ultimately decides that the Body Sect should first surpass Shrek in Soul Master strength, technological capability, and institutional development before seeking revenge. 141 142

Xuanming Sect Confrontation

After learning of the Xuanming Sect's pill reserves and its association with Shrek Academy, Du Busi marches on the sect following an attack on Body Sect disciples. He forces Sect Master Xu Zhengchu to surrender pills, reserves, and the sect's pill prescriptions. 94 107 108

The seized prescriptions allow the Body Sect to establish a Pill Hall under Yu Bo and begin producing Mysterious Water Pills and Black Tortoise Divine Pills for its own development. 146

Body Sect Reform and Succession

Du Busi allows Ye An to preside over a major sect meeting concerning Soul Tool research, despite the Body Sect's traditional distrust of Soul Tools. He later supports a plan to send the sect's elders into the Sun Moon Empire to recruit Soul Engineers and recover further Body Martial Soul possessors. 138 140

In private, Du Busi entrusts Ye An with the Secrets of the Body, the Body Sect's most valuable inheritance. His confidence in Ye An as a successor releases the mental burdens that had blocked his own cultivation for years. 140 141

Breakthrough to Limit Douluo

After giving Ye An the Secrets of the Body, Du Busi enters seclusion and succeeds in fusing his second Soul Core. He advances from Rank 98 to Rank 99, becoming the Body Sect's first known Limit Douluo and dramatically strengthening its position against Shrek Academy. 141 142

Visit to the Mo and Xiao Families

Du Busi brings Ye An and Zhang Lexuan to the hidden settlement shared by the Mo and Xiao families. His purpose is to acquire the Mo Family's Soul-Calming Method, which he believes can strengthen Ye An's spiritual power for the Blood Essence Martial Path and improve Zhang Lexuan's spiritually oriented Soul Bone skill. 143

The visit also reveals that the two families have declined sharply since Du Busi's youth, as the current Mo Family head, Mo Tianjin, possesses only Soul Douluo cultivation despite the family's former Rank 97 expert. 143

Encounter with the Emperor Auspicious Beast

While in the Star Dou Great Forest, Du Busi encounters the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Scarlet King. He considers whether the Auspicious Beast's fortune could benefit Ye An, but recognizes the danger and impracticality of forcing such a plan. When Scarlet King tries to deter the group, Du Busi suppresses him with his Limit Douluo aura. 158
