Power Progression

Background and History

Fuxi and his younger sister Nuwa were born near Buzhou Mountain and shared a cultivation ground there. Born earlier than Nuwa, Fuxi gained a head start through his skill in divination, although her talent and comprehension surpassed his 16 19.

A premonition drew Fuxi out of seclusion when Nuwa was endangered by Hou. Finding her with the unfamiliar Xiang Dong, he could not discern Xiang Dong’s origins or fate and attacked him with the Fuxi Qin. The strike sent Xiang Dong toward Buzhou Mountain, where the sound waves and Pangu’s pressure caused him to explode 7.

Fuxi later investigated a disturbance on Buzhou Mountain that he suspected was connected to Xiang Dong. Unable to climb beyond the mountainside under Pangu’s pressure, he turned back. During his absence, Nuwa chose to accompany Xiang Dong to the East Sea 11 13 16.

After finding Nuwa’s message, Fuxi followed them, even though his divination suggested the journey would bring her no serious harm. By the time he reached the East Sea, Nuwa had already returned home along Xiang Dong’s golden road, leaving Fuxi furious at his wasted pursuit 17 26.

Fuxi eventually thanked Xiang Dong for the treasures Nuwa obtained on the journey but asked him to keep his distance from her. Nuwa defended her right to choose her own friends. Fuxi subsequently played music with Xiang Dong and, after receiving his help in breaking through to Great Unity Golden Immortal, expressed sincere respect for him 40 41 50.

Appearance

Fuxi appears as a handsome, refined young man 7.

• His true form has a human body and a serpent’s tail 7 50.
• When he and Nuwa broke through to Great Unity Golden Immortal, their true forms appeared amid a vortex of Spiritual Qi 50.

Personality

Fuxi is fiercely protective of Nuwa and acts decisively when he believes she is threatened. His concern can become overbearing: he attacked Xiang Dong despite Nuwa’s protests and later tried to discourage their friendship 7 40.

He nevertheless recognizes obligations and kindness. Though he remained suspicious of Xiang Dong, he thanked him for helping Nuwa and promised to repay the karmic debt. He also acknowledged Nuwa’s growing independence, even when it distressed him 17 40.

Abilities and Skills

Divination and Deduction

Fuxi follows the Dao of deduction and is among the Primordial World’s most skilled practitioners at discerning heavenly secrets 7 43.

• His blood and karmic ties to Nuwa usually let him sense danger to her and calculate her whereabouts 17.
• He could not discern Xiang Dong’s origins or fate, and Nuwa’s connection to Xiang Dong temporarily obscured her whereabouts as well 7 17.
• Using Nuwa’s lingering divine thought as a starting point, he divined that her East Sea journey held danger but no serious harm and might bring a great opportunity 17.
• He deduced that the first creation of something useful to the Primordial World could earn Heavenly Dao Merit 41.
• He had not yet perfected the Primordial Eight Trigrams at the time of Yangmei’s visit 43.

Dao of Musical Harmony

Fuxi plays classical music and can use his qin to affect both bodies and emotions 7 41.

• A plucked note produced a sound wave that blasted Xiang Dong toward Buzhou Mountain 7.
• His sorrowful performance stirred misery in nearby creatures; some wept, while others harmed themselves. It also brought Xiang Dong’s accumulated loneliness to the surface 41.
• He and Xiang Dong performed “High Mountains and Flowing Water,” but argued over their differing musical approaches 41.

Equipment and Items

• Fuxi Qin — His companion Upper-grade Innate Spirit Treasure. Its music can calm hearts and purify minds. The qin has five strings associated with the Five Elements 40 41.
• Nine-Grade Pure World White Lotus — An Upper-grade Innate Spirit Treasure brought back by Nuwa from the East Sea for Fuxi 40.
• Footwear Spirit Treasures — Treasures worn during his pursuit to the East Sea; they began smoking from the strain of the journey 26.

Relationships

• Nuwa — His younger sister, whom he has long protected. Her decision to travel and choose friends independently challenges his protectiveness 16 17 40.
• Xiang Dong — Initially treated as a dangerous stranger, then as an unwelcome influence on Nuwa. Despite their disputes, they share an interest in music, and Fuxi comes to respect him for guiding his breakthrough 7 40 41 50.
• Yangmei — A powerful visitor whom Fuxi first met through Xiang Dong. Fuxi was wary of hosting him but shared his Enlightenment Tea 42 47.
