Background / History

Future Memories and Huo Yuhao’s Recruitment

Du Busi receives memories of the future through Huo Yuhao’s system. These memories reveal that Huo Yuhao, despite belonging to Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect, will achieve a Gold-Rank Second Awakening of his Spirit Eyes and eventually become the God of Emotion. Du Busi immediately summons Jin Peng and leaves for the Star Dou Great Forest to find him before Shrek can recruit him 3 5.

After subduing a Flame Lion threatening Huo Yuhao, Du Busi introduces himself and confirms that Spirit Eyes is a Body Martial Soul. He treats Huo Yuhao’s recruitment as a return to the Body Sect, reflecting his belief that all Body Martial Soul users belong there. During their journey back, he explains that Body Martial Soul cultivation requires individual experimentation rather than copying another practitioner’s techniques 6 7.

At the sect, Du Busi promises medicinal herbs, pills, and instruction to repair Huo Yuhao’s neglected physique. His memories give him sympathy for the boy’s childhood and confidence that Huo Yuhao can help change his own future life-and-death outcome 8.

Retaliation Against the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion

Du Busi takes Demonic Fist Douluo to the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion to punish its treatment of Huo Yuhao. Before attacking, he explicitly forbids killing: their purpose is to inflict injuries and financial losses while leaving Huo Yuhao’s personal revenge to him. Du Busi destroys the mansion with Death Feast, while Demonic Fist incapacitates its defenders and the duchess 9 10 11.

He later defends the attack as a warning that the Body Sect will retaliate wherever its children are mistreated, regardless of the offending faction’s political standing 23.

Far North Expedition and the Avengers Alliance

When Huo Yuhao reaches Level 20, Du Busi accompanies him to the Far North to obtain a Thousand-Year Cold-Pupiled Ice Fox as his second Soul Ring. He captures the unusually elusive fox and guards Huo Yuhao during absorption 16 17.

There, Du Busi discovers that the Snow Empress and Ice Empress also remember the future. Their shared concern for Huo Yuhao leads them to form the Avengers Alliance, intended to change both his fate and their own. Du Busi accepts the two empresses’ offer to join the Body Sect 18.

During the Ice Empress’s fusion with Huo Yuhao, Du Busi proposes using the strain to trigger a Body Martial Soul Second Awakening. He protects Huo Yuhao’s body while the Snow Empress stabilizes the incoming power. After the resulting Gold-Rank awakening consumes some of Huo Yuhao’s life force, Du Busi hunts and prepares Soul Beast meat to replenish his Qi and blood 19 20 21.

Succession and Imperial Negotiations

Upon returning, Du Busi introduces the Snow Empress as Xue Lingbing, a Level 99 Limit Douluo, and proposes her appointment as the sect’s second-in-command. He then reveals Huo Yuhao’s Gold-Rank Second Awakening and names him heir to the sect master’s position. When Huo Yuhao worries about replacing Long Aotian, Du Busi assures him that Long Aotian will be treated fairly 22 23.

At the subsequent imperial conference, Du Busi refuses to apologize for destroying the duke’s mansion. Instead, he demands a Dragon Core and the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife as compensation for Huo Yuhao’s childhood suffering and Xuan Zi’s intimidation. Xuan Zi agrees to provide the knife; Dai Hao offers Dai Huabin and the duchess as servants in place of the Dragon Core. Du Busi pressures Xuan Zi to sign the resulting contract 25 26.

Clash with Shrek

When Yan Shaozhe brings the carving knife but demands a marriage alliance between Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao, Du Busi rejects the proposal and attacks. He defeats Yan Shaozhe before the latter can activate his Martial Soul Avatar, then battles Xuan Zi in the sky. He chooses not to kill Xuan Zi, intending to exploit his continued presence to undermine Shrek’s coming Soul Master Tournament performance 35 36.

The duel’s pressure overwhelms the disciples below, prompting Huo Yuhao and the Snow Empress to intervene. Du Busi acknowledges that his enjoyment of the fight made him overlook their safety. Afterward, he arranges Soul Ring hunting and nourishing food for the disciples and seeks healing-type Soul Masters in Heaven Dou City 37.

Support for Soul Tool Research

Despite the Body Sect’s aversion to Soul Tools, Du Busi approves Huo Yuhao’s proposal to establish a research team. His future memories give him confidence in Huo Yuhao’s talent, though he makes continued support conditional on producing a practical prototype before his return from a hunting expedition 42.

The team’s Godly Zhuge Crossbow Cannon and self-repairing Class 8 shield exceed his expectations. After personally testing the shield, Du Busi promises full backing and whatever metal materials the researchers need. Before Huo Yuhao leaves for the Earth Dragon Sect, he repeatedly offers to accompany him, finally entrusting his safety to the Snow Empress 43.

Appearance

• Build: A tall elderly man 3.
• Hair: Long, dark green hair worn loose behind him, with a bare crown 3.
• Face and eyes: A rosy, baby-like complexion and gleaming dark green eyes 3.
• Combat manifestations: Dark green and golden light, a golden humanoid phantom, and a giant form with granite-like muscles 11 36.

Personality

Du Busi treats the Body Sect as a family rather than merely an organization. He considers good lodging, food, and cultivation resources basic provisions for every child who joins. His protectiveness extends to confronting imperial authorities, but he also respects Huo Yuhao’s right to settle his own grievances instead of killing his enemies for him 8 11 18.

He is blunt, domineering, and quick to threaten a spar when Jin Peng irritates him. His bickering and practical jokes reveal a less formal side: he deliberately makes Huo Yuhao think he opposes Soul Tool research before enthusiastically approving it 5 7 42.

His confidence can become recklessness. During his duel with Xuan Zi, he becomes so absorbed in fighting that he overlooks the danger to nearby disciples. He admits the mistake once the Snow Empress intervenes 37.

• A trace of his pressure drives nearby Soul Beasts into retreat 16.

Body Martial Soul Instruction

Du Busi teaches that a Body Martial Soul’s development depends on its owner’s physique, initiative, and creativity rather than a fixed inherited fighting style 7 8.

• Personally guides Long Aotian, whose self-created Unity of Heaven and Man differs from Du Busi’s own arts 7.
• Identifies extreme bodily strain and Soul Shock as catalysts for a Second Awakening 19.
• Designs Huo Yuhao’s awakening attempt around the Ice Empress’s fusion, with himself protecting the body and the Snow Empress regulating the power 19 20.

Memories of the Future

Du Busi’s future knowledge lets him recognize Huo Yuhao’s potential and anticipate his accomplishments 3.

• Uses those memories to recruit Huo Yuhao before Shrek and support his Soul Tool research 5 42.
• Does not possess complete knowledge of every underlying mechanism: the Ice Empress must explain Huo Yuhao’s soulless ice and its role as a shapeless second Martial Soul 18 19.
