Background / History

Nuwa remained hidden within Buzhou Mountain’s Innate Creation Grand Formation alongside Fuxi. Though her Origin was already complete, she initially considered the outside Primordial World too dangerous to enter. She was nevertheless ambitious, intending to become the foremost being of Buzhou Mountain and eager to obtain powerful spiritual treasures for herself and Fuxi. 85 95 131

A karmic pull connected her to Li Fan’s activities around Buzhou Mountain. When Li Fan reached her formation, Nuwa confronted him as an unyielding young guardian of her territory. His information about the Creation Green Lotus ultimately convinced her to emerge. 128 130 131

Nuwa crossed the River of Time holding the Precious Lotus Lantern and wielding the Shanhe Sheji Tu. Her Creation Dao Fruit refined the chains of time, and she emerged as a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, announcing her intention to forge her own path to transcendence. 131

Appearance

Nuwa first appears in a youthful form within her formation. Upon emerging, she takes a human form with a serpent’s tail; later Saintly descriptions emphasize her divine beauty and solemn Dao-bearing presence. 130 131 271

  • Human upper body and serpent tail. 131
  • Initially associated with a red robe and the Creation Heavenly Blade. 51
  • As a Saint, has jade-like skin, cherry-colored lips, a Saint mark on her brow, and an aura linked to the Heavenly Dao. 271
  • As the Creation Holy Demoness, wears a gilded demonic dress marked by chaotic black patterns and possesses black-and-gold eyes. 594

Personality

Nuwa is fiercely proud of her top-tier Origin and talent. Before emerging, she speaks boldly of becoming Buzhou Mountain’s strongest figure; after emerging, she openly identifies herself as a top-tier Innate Divine Being. 95 138

She is competitive and dislikes being surpassed, particularly by Houtu. This drive sends her into intensive seclusion to pursue Sainthood. 264

Despite her pride, Nuwa is deeply protective of the Human Race. She creates a sanctuary for humanity after their birth, leads them against the Demon Clan, intervenes to prevent a mortal child from suffering a name-related death tribulation, and insists that all Myriad Dao should coexist. 271 296 355 526

She also has a playful, mischievous side. She teases allies, seeks compensation in Purple Coins, turns the Twelve Earthly Branch selection into competitive trials, and can be manipulative when arranging Fuxi’s future. 138 336 392
