Background / History
Mandala is the hidden ruler of Da Luo Territory and the adopted daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, who raised her as his own daughter. Her original body was left within the Ancient Heavenly Palace, while she spent a long period asleep; her history gives her knowledge of ancient figures such as the Heaven Wrath Thunder Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor. 58 115 152 175
She first meets Lu Chen beneath the Great Lo Golden Pool after finding him recklessly tempering his unrefined body in the pool’s golden energy. After judging his foundation stable and his talent worthy of investment, she leads him to the pool’s deepest level and offers him the Great Lo Golden Flame. 57 58
Mandala becomes one of Lu Chen’s most consistent patrons within Da Luo Territory. She provides resources, cultivation opportunities, military authority, intelligence, and personal protection while relying on him as Da Luo Territory expands across the Northern Region. 59 85 86 115 121
Following the Great Hunting War, Mandala’s breakthrough to Upper Earthly Supreme cements Da Luo Territory’s dominance over the Northern Region. She subsequently plans to secure the Dark Golden Pyramid and recover her original body from the Ancient Heavenly Palace. 146 152
After the Heavenly Emperor accepts Lu Chen as his disciple, Mandala and Lu Chen become senior and junior siblings. She later acts as the Tianluo Alliance’s leader during Lu Chen’s absences, overseeing its political consolidation and responding directly to threats from rival overlord factions. 175 182 203 231
