Background
Chen Xuan was a modern soul who transmigrated into the Primordial World and remained dormant beneath Mount Buzhou as a Post-natal Spirit Stone. Though his spiritual power was weak, he awakened Divine Sense and gradually accepted his new existence. 1
When Nuwa arrived at Mount Buzhou to comprehend the Dao and create humanity, Chen Xuan activated the Mythic Template System. He accepted the Mythical Nuwa template, retaining his spirit-stone true body while manifesting within mythic space as Mythical Nuwa. 1
Using an identical Creation Immortal Cauldron, Nine Heavens Breathing Earth, Three-Light Divine Water, and Human Creation Whip, he created the Mythic Human Race alongside Nuwa’s Primordial Human Race. He named its first leaders Shen Yi and Shen Er, taught the race practical knowledge—including housing, ingredients, and cooking—and instructed them to live alongside the Primordial Humans as family. 1
Appearance
Chen Xuan’s original body is an inconspicuous spirit stone. His appearance changes completely with his mythic templates. 1
- Mythical Nuwa — A peerlessly beautiful female form with long hair, a green snake tail embodying creation, and an aura surrounded by the Three Thousand Great Daos and divine artifacts. 1
- Mythic Taiyi — A male form nearly identical to the primordial Donghuang Taiyi, distinguished by flowing black hair, star-filled eyes, and sun-and-moon markings on his forehead. 23 24
Personality
Chen Xuan is playful and deliberately provocative when dealing with beings who challenge him. He teases Nuwa as a “younger sister,” uses food to draw her out of her saintly reserve, and arranges the terms of their wager to his advantage. 1 2
Beneath that irreverence, he is highly strategic. He consistently prepares for the expiration of his templates, builds institutions to develop the Primordial World without his direct intervention, and uses points, missions, and planar exchanges to encourage worlds to merge willingly. 2 10 30 58
He is also fiercely protective of the Primordial World’s inhabitants. He protects them from Pangu’s Chaos Demon Gods, prevents Houtu from dissipating after establishing reincarnation, and refuses to allow the Primordial World to collapse during his confrontations with Pangu’s will. 8 12 13

Human Genesis and the Mythic Dao
Chen Xuan’s arrival as Mythical Nuwa creates a second human race and immediately overturns the Primordial World’s understanding of power.

After glimpsing Pangu alive beyond the river of time, Chen Xuan directs the Primordial World’s leading figures to expand their world and prepare for chaos. He establishes Mount Shouyang as the Divine Court’s foundation, protects the world from Chaos Demon Gods, and investigates Pangu’s hidden plans through the Netherworld Blood Sea and Chaos barrier. 3 5 8 11 12
Reincarnation and the Three Daos
Chen Xuan supports Houtu’s creation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation but changes her destined sacrifice by preserving her Primordial Spirit through the Netherworld Blood Sea. The Human, Heavenly, and Earthly Daos subsequently unite into a Dao-proving treasure. 13
Divine Court Academy
Before leaving to address matters in the Mythic World, Chen Xuan establishes Divine Court Academy, appoints its leadership, and assigns the Primordial World’s major factions concrete cultivation goals. He creates the points system to turn world expansion into a shared path of advancement. 10
Mythic Taiyi and Primordial City
After Mythical Nuwa’s template ends, Chen Xuan becomes Mythic Donghuang Taiyi, suppresses the Chaos barrier, and returns to guide the Primordial World.

Planar Missions and World Fusion
As academy dean, Chen Xuan initiates missions for students from other worlds.
