Background / History

Creation and first visitors

Li Ming entrusted the construction of Dream Space to Satellite AI rather than building it entirely through his own imagination. On seeing its jade architecture and heavenly setting, he immediately identified virtual real estate as a source of monopoly profits 10.

The city’s first visitors were Ning Fengzhi, Tang Xiao, Emperor Xue Ye, and Yu Yuanzhen. Ning Fengzhi and Tang Xiao initially mistook one another for fabricated dream figures, then verified their identities through private memories. Li Ming presented the city as a future holy land for Soul Masters and introduced intelligence sales and cultivation assistance as its first services 13 14 15.

Closed Beta and commercial growth

Li Ming extended invitations to powerful figures from the Heaven Dou and Star Luo empires, then auctioned nine hundred Closed Beta slots. Approved businesses received rent-free, tax-free shops in the Outer City during the testing period. Within roughly half a year, the formerly empty city had developed busy streets lined with shops 19 20 22 23.

Public Beta and the Spirit Hall conflict

Public Beta admitted Spirit Hall members, who had received no Closed Beta invitations, as well as Shrek Academy leaders. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Di Tian also entered, revealing that Soul Beasts could access the shared dream 41.

Di Tian’s clash with the Shrek Seven Monsters and Tang Hao became the city’s first private fight. Li Ming initially watched to collect valuable combat data, but afterward enforced the prohibition on unauthorized fighting and suspended every participant’s account for three days 45 48.

Bibi Dong’s agents attempted to capture the City Lord’s spiritual power and attacked banks supporting Dream Coupon exchange. Li Ming retaliated through satellite strikes in reality, eventually destroying Spirit City after issuing evacuation notices through Purple Heaven City. News spread through Dream Space in less than a quarter of an hour; the city’s prestige and Dream Coupon exchanges subsequently increased. Spirit Hall’s elders then sought a settlement rather than abandoning access to the cultivation assistant 50 51 53 54 55.

Expansion beyond the Douluo Continent

Li Ming opened contact with the Sun Moon Continent and demonstrated the city’s research capabilities to Kong Desheng. A later auction brought in one thousand new users, most of them Soul Engineers, and encouraged alliances between Sun Moon empires and major Douluo factions 98 100 108 109.

The city also acquired significance beyond commerce. Through Fate Power, Li Ming perceived connections between Purple Heaven City and Soul Masters’ lives, deepening as they spent more time there. He considered whether those connections could gather faith and support a Self-Created Godhood; this remained a possibility rather than an achieved result 97.

Appearance

  • Celestial setting: The city stands on vast clouds beneath a hemispherical bubble, with Blue Star, the sun, and the moon visible in the surrounding sky 10.
  • Architecture: Buildings resemble ancient architecture from Li Ming’s previous life, using translucent jade bricks, multicolored jade, and glazed tiles 10 13.
  • Entrance: A towering archway bears the words “Purple Heaven City”; smooth cloud roads continue through the gates 10 13.
  • Public Beta sensations: Sunlight acquires a faint burning sensation, clouds feel softer and more substantial, and the air carries detectable moisture 40.

Abilities & Services

Shared Dream Access

Purple Heaven City brings real visitors together in their dream bodies, allowing interaction across great distances 13 14.

  • Closed Beta invitations arrive daily at noon and midnight; users enter by accepting them 20.
  • By the Sun Moon visitors’ arrival, only newly registered users appear outside the gates. Existing users have homes within the city 99.
  • Li Ming can forcibly log users out and suspend their accounts 48.
  • Soul Beasts can enter, and Gu Yuena enters as a spiritual body through Di Tian’s dream, bypassing normal access and triggering an abnormal-user alert 41 87.

Personal Cultivation Assistant

The city’s central service analyzes and improves Self-Created Soul Skills, benefiting users from ordinary Soul Masters to Titled Douluo 18 38 53.

  • Evaluates a skill’s current power and recommends changes to its construction, charging method, and Soul Power trajectory 18.
  • Uses combat demonstrations and data-collection dummies to gather information 17.
  • Also analyzes Soul Tool arrays, identifying engraving flaws and suggesting improvements 102.
  • Exists in different versions. Kong Desheng’s special version can help develop a Self-Created Soul Skill in half an hour; Li Ming states that the ordinary version is only five percent as effective 113.

Reality Simulation and Soul Engineering

The upgraded city reproduces physical and Soul Power interactions closely enough for skills and Soul Tool designs developed inside it to be applied in reality 100 101.

  • Simulated materials allow repeated practice and experimentation without consuming real precious metals 101 102.
  • Core Arrays can be enlarged for inspection, helping beginners identify mistakes 101.
  • Dream engraving can follow an idea directly, and engraved details can be modified afterward 111.
  • Practical limit: A viable dream design may still require engraving techniques beyond its creator’s real-world ability 111.
  • Research privacy: Li Ming gains access to designs developed in the city. The leading Soul Engineers’ Core Array blueprints become part of his technological reserves 103 111.

Dream Cultivation Method

Developed by users, this method allows Soul Masters to remain lucid in Dream Space while their physical bodies continue meditating and absorbing Heaven and Earth Origin Energy 97.

  • Users can cultivate while training Soul Skills, researching, or enjoying the city’s entertainment 97.
  • Entering the dream must not disrupt the body’s meditative state 97.
  • Incomplete Mental Control reduces cultivation efficiency; later refinements make the method more stable and extend meditation time 97.
  • Adoption spreads from Titled Douluo down to Spirit Scholars and substantially increases daily attendance 97.

Intelligence and Communication

  • Li Ming initially offers to locate people within the Heaven Dou Empire from a supplied portrait 15.
  • Visitors can meet across thousands of miles, supporting reunions, negotiations, and faction cooperation 43 71 108.
  • Announcements and eyewitness reports circulate rapidly: news of Spirit City’s destruction reaches Soul Masters across the continent in under fifteen minutes 53.

Food and Entertainment

  • Dream food initially provides taste without filling the physical stomach, making restaurant spending a luxury 29.
  • A later update simulates a feeling of fullness after eating 113.
  • Entertainment includes performances enhanced by a singer’s special Martial Soul 98.

Governance and Security

  • Inclusive admission: Li Ming explicitly welcomes all intelligent beings. Users unwilling to accept Soul Beasts may request permanent departure, losing future access 48.
  • No private fighting: Unauthorized combat results in account suspension, including for participants acting in self-defense. Di Tian and Qian Daoliu are forcibly logged out under this rule 48.
  • Designated combat venue: The Arena is announced as the place for private duels, death matches, and wagered fights 48.
  • Access-payment enforcement: Closed Beta auction winners must pay within three days or lose their qualifications and be blacklisted 21.
  • Anti-tracing measures: Fate Power conceals connections between individual dreams and Dream Space and forms a firewall against attempts to investigate Li Ming 38.
  • Continuing distrust: Major factions still conduct some confidential discussions offline rather than trust the City Lord with them 97.
