Peerless Divine Lord

Supreme God Lord is a long-running Eastern fantasy web novel by Baili Longxia, serialized for years on Qidian (launched on Chuangshi) under China Literature. The book has surpassed eight million Chinese characters. It follows Su Mo, young heir of the Su family in Linyang City, Tianyue Kingdom. At fifteen, after completing nine stages of body tempering, he undergoes his clan's martial soul awakening ceremony—only to awaken a "trash martial soul" rated first rank of the human tier. Overnight he falls from his family's hope to public laughingstock, suffers cold treatment from his clan, and loses the favor of his childhood sweetheart. But Su Mo, in a past life the king of mercenaries and a man of unyielding will, refuses to sink into despair. In his darkest hour he discovers that his martial soul can devour the blood and qi of living beings, absorb and fuse diverse bloodlines, and continuously evolve—setting him on a path of rising through battle, cultivating strength by feeding on his foes, and proving his way through devouring. The novel advances in layered arcs—martial soul evolution, sect rise, star domain conquest, and contention in the divine realm. Starting as a low-level martial artist in Tianyue Kingdom, Su Mo masters exotic techniques, obtains rare treasures, braves forbidden lands, and battles prodigies. He joins forces such as the Cangqiong Divine Palace and the Divine Martial Academy, moving from the wild realm to the divine realm. Through life-and-death struggles he uncovers the mysteries of his bloodline and origins, ultimately ascending to the highest ranks. The martial soul system has three tiers—Heaven, Earth, and Human—each divided into nine grades; techniques and martial skills are graded in nine levels and three grades. With a clear progression system and brisk pacing, it is a quintessential male-oriented martial soul leveling power-fantasy.
