"Fengshen Dueling: The Path to Investiture Begins with Martial Soul Awakening"

Alternate title:

"I Transmigrated into Douluo 1 and Awakened the Investiture List Martial Soul, but I’m on the Sun and Moon Continent!"

When he wakes up, modern young man Yan Juexian finds that he has transmigrated into the Douluo Dalu world he has long dreamed of, only to discover that he has landed on the Sun and Moon Continent, ten thousand years in the future! Even more absurdly, in this world where Soul Masters reign supreme, the Martial Soul he awakens is neither Blue Silver Grass nor Clear Sky Hammer, but a jade slip that looks utterly ordinary?!

Only when he channels his soul power for the first time does the jade slip unfurl, blazing with golden light. Three ancient characters upon it shake the heavens: the Investiture of the Gods!

But there is no Shrek here, no Spirit Hall, only the Sun and Moon Empire and its mysterious, powerful Three Judicial Offices: the Great Dream Temple, which oversees trials and awakenings; the Ministry of Justice, which reviews punishments; and the Soul Inspection Terrace, which supervises officials.

With the Investiture of the Gods in hand, Yan Juexian quietly rises to power in this strange land governed by unfamiliar laws. He summons gods and commands generals, conferring titles upon the heavens! Can Kong Xuan’s Five-Colored Divine Light sweep away every Martial Soul in the world? Can Yang Jian’s third eye see through all illusions? Can Nezha’s Wind-Fire Wheels outrun every Flying Soul Tool?

He only wanted to develop steadily, but the Investiture of the Gods was destined to stir up a storm. When his name resounds across the Sun and Moon Continent, the route to the legendary Douluo Dalu finally opens. Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, the Spirit Hall Pope, Sea God Douluo... I’m coming for all the legendary figures in those stories!

But Yan Juexian discovers that his Investiture of the Gods seems to have some unspoken conflict with the “divine positions” of this world... This is a very different path to becoming a god and attaining sainthood!
