Power Progression
These milestones track the awakening and release of the Star Forger’s power through Luo Chen, rather than a separate cultivation rank belonging to the dragon.
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Martial Soul awakening | 5 | Manifests within Luo Chen’s astral Martial Soul Space. Luo Chen awakens with rank 30 innate Soul Power and receives information about the restrictions on the Star Forger’s power. |
| First Soul Ring; first Innate Aspect | 10 | The Celestial Star Crown absorbs the Silver Dragon King’s reverse scale, produces a white Soul Ring, and creates Na’er. Adding Soul Rings progressively releases the Star Forger’s power, which improves the rings’ quality and level. |
| Foundation for godhood reforged | 22 | After Na’er’s Dragon King Origin infusion and Bibi Dong’s removal of the poison, Luo Chen’s foundation is reforged, allowing the Star Forger’s Celestial Power to continue growing. |
| Second Aspect; second Soul Ring | 34 36 | Ah Yin evolves into a Star Seedling through Celestial Power. Luo Chen gains Star Grass abilities and is subsequently shown with two white Soul Rings. |
| God Trials received | 35 | The trials appear as Luo Chen’s crown cracks further. They test his ability to bear greater power while gradually teaching him to master the Star Forger’s inheritance. |
Background / History
Luo Chen recognizes his awakened Martial Soul as Aurelion Sol, the Star Forger from League of Legends. Its power has merged with the Douluo Universe, adapting its inheritance to the world’s Martial Soul and godhood systems. Although Luo Chen possesses three Martial Souls in practical terms, the Star Forger is his sole true Martial Soul; the Celestial Star Crown and Sun Disc are associated manifestations that release portions of its power 5 6.
The awakening temporarily turns morning into a star-filled night. Qian Daoliu senses formidable divine power, Bo Saixi wonders whether someone has become a god, and the Silver Dragon King detects Cosmic Origin Power purer than that of the Dragon God. Seeking its source, she separates a portion of her origin and sends Di Tian to investigate 5.
Luo Chen chooses to conceal the Star Forger’s identity while selectively revealing its associated Martial Souls. Bibi Dong establishes the public explanation that his only Martial Soul is a top-tier mutated Celestial Star Crown. This secrecy allows him to receive Spirit Hall’s support without exposing the full inheritance 6.
Appearance
- Body: An immense draconic form resembling a miniature universe, with flowing starlight and faintly flickering ancient runes 5.
- Crown: A crown of brilliant starlight rests upon his head; the crown on his true Martial Soul body cracks as Soul Rings are added 5 6.
- Eyes: During Wang Sheng’s Ascension Ritual, his eyes resemble eternal blazing suns 7.
- Scale: His body is described as vast enough to blot out the stars. Even the Dragon God’s remembered image cannot compare with the majesty the Silver Dragon King perceives 10.
- Consciousness form: Luo Chen assumes the Star Forger’s appearance within the Martial Soul Space and can dissolve that form into starlight before reappearing as himself 7 25.
Abilities & Skills
Cosmic Creation Power
The Star Forger is described as a creation-god-like existence capable of casually forging stars, crushing them, and witnessing repeated cycles of universal birth and destruction. These descriptions establish the scale of his original power, not abilities Luo Chen can immediately wield 5.
- His power includes Celestial Power, also called the Power of the Cosmic Origin 26.
- Celestial Power represents authority over universal laws and stands above the Ascended Power used by the Sun Disc 26.
- A small released portion can transform Martial Souls and evolve Soul Beasts into higher celestial lifeforms 8 10 34.
World-Bound Seal
The world’s rules prevent Luo Chen from directly obtaining the Star Forger’s full power 5.
| Release Mechanism | Effect |
|---|---|
| Enhancing the Douluo Plane | Gradually grants access to the Star Forger’s power as the plane’s potential increases 5 26. |
| Adding Soul Rings | Cracks the crown on the true Martial Soul body and progressively unseals power 6 10. |
| Destruction of the Douluo Plane | Fully releases the Star Forger’s power, allowing Luo Chen to inherit it and ascend to godhood in a single step 5 6. |
- Luo Chen rejects destroying the plane because of the lives it would cost 5.
- Releasing too much power before he is ready could injure him and damage the Douluo Continent 35.
- Douluo Star acts as a central hub for controlling Cosmic Origin Power; its strength limits how much power can be accessed 26.
Celestial Star Crown
The Celestial Star Crown is both an associated Martial Soul and a manifestation of the artifact used by the Aspects to seal the Star Forger’s power 6.
- Eighteen Soul Ring slots: It can hold eighteen Soul Rings rather than the usual nine 6.
- Ring enhancement: Released Star Forger power flows into the rings, raising their quality and level 10.
- Aspect conversion: It preserves absorbed Soul Beast souls and uses Celestial Power to transform them into celestial beings called Innate Aspects 10 11.
- Aspect Summoning: Luo Chen can summon his Aspects as companions and combatants 17.
- Aspect Possession: Aspects can merge with him and lend him their power. Multiple simultaneous fusions are theoretically possible, limited by his body’s ability to withstand them 17.
- Cosmic outlet: The crown channels the Star Forger’s authority into the universe; strengthening it increases the amount of Cosmic Origin Power it can control 26.
Documented Aspects include:
| Aspect | Evolution | Powers Granted |
|---|---|---|
| Na’er | Silver Dragon King dragon soul → Star-Creating Wyrmling | Divine Power and Elemental Control; initially awakens light, darkness, and space 11. |
| Ah Yin | Blue Silver Emperor → Star Seedling | Star Grass, healing, cultivation assistance, and edible all-attribute enhancements 34 36. |
Na’er’s Divine Power is exceptional: Ah Yin possesses ordinary Soul Power despite also undergoing celestial evolution 34.
Sun Disc and Ascension Ritual
The Sun Disc releases the Star Forger’s power through rituals that improve a recipient’s innate aptitude and Martial Soul quality. It cannot accept Soul Rings 6 7.
| Ascension Stage | Corresponding Milestone |
|---|---|
| First | Innate Soul Power 25 |
| Second | Top-Level Martial Soul 25 |
| Third | Super Martial Soul 25 |
| Fourth | Ultimate Martial Soul 25 |
| Fifth | God-Level Martial Soul 25 |
- Rituals consume the disc’s stored Ascended Power rather than Luo Chen’s Soul Power 7.
- A recipient must possess sufficient potential for the desired evolution 8.
- Wang Sheng’s War Tiger becomes a Black Hell Demon Tiger, while Hu Liena’s Demon Fox becomes a nine-tailed demon fox 7 9.
- Bibi Dong reaches the fifth stage despite insufficient remaining Ascended Power to directly evolve both Martial Souls to god level. Her willpower earns the Star Forger’s recognition, and she subsequently fuses them into a new God-Level Martial Soul 25 27.
Creation and Restoration
The Star Forger’s creation power sustains Luo Chen and supports the continued existence of his Aspects 10 11.
- Vitality: It gives Luo Chen an exceptionally powerful underlying physique. His persistent weakness results from outside energy damaging his origin and obstructing that vitality 11.
- Aspect persistence: Na’er cannot be permanently destroyed while Luo Chen remains alive 10.
- Restoration through shared origin: Celestial Power flowing through Na’er heals the Silver Dragon King’s body and counters the Asura Divine Power afflicting her 10.
- Soul preservation: Aspect conversion gives Luo Chen a possible foundation for addressing the conflict between humans and Soul Beasts, though he has not completed a broadly applicable method 35.
Godhood Inheritance
A portion of the Star Forger’s power nurtures the God of Creation position, whose baseline is God King level. Its completeness and strength increase as the Douluo Plane advances 6.
- The inheritance describes a future in which Luo Chen reaches rank 100, his associated Martial Souls shatter, and all eighteen Soul Rings become god rings transferred to the Star Forger 6.
- God Trials temper Luo Chen and verify that he can safely bear additional power 35.
- A separate godhood ritual, beyond the five Ascension stages, can establish deities through the Star Forger’s power fused with the Douluo Universe’s origin 26.
- That ritual requires suitable aptitude, disposition, and enormous reserves of Celestial Power. The Douluo Plane is initially too weak to support Bibi Dong’s completion of it 26.
- Deities created through this path would belong to Luo Chen’s celestial pantheon, with Luo Chen as its sole true god 26.
Mental Protection and Inherited Knowledge
- The god-bestowed Martial Soul makes mind-altering and emotion-influencing techniques difficult to apply to Luo Chen; Hu Liena’s charm fails against him 6.
- It transmits information about its name, functions, development, sealing conditions, and inheritance—unlike ordinary Martial Souls, which do not provide such instructions 5 6.
- Previously transmitted information also explains the higher godhood ritual when Luo Chen investigates Bibi Dong’s qualification 26.
Relationships
- Luo Chen — Wielder and inheritor. His consciousness assumes the Star Forger’s form inside the Martial Soul Space, but his access to its power remains restricted 5 6 7.
- Na’er — First Innate Aspect, evolved by the Star Forger’s Celestial Power. Her continued existence is tied to Luo Chen’s survival 10 11.
- Silver Dragon King — Detects the awakening’s Cosmic Origin Power and supplies the reverse scale that becomes Na’er. She benefits from the resulting connection through the healing of her injuries 5 10.
- Bibi Dong — Recipient of the Ascension Ritual and recognition from the Star Forger’s will. She qualifies for a future godhood ritual but has not completed it 25 26 27.
- Ah Yin — Second documented Aspect, transformed from the Blue Silver Emperor into a Star Seedling 34.
