Fu Ji

Biodata

Power Progression

Background / History

Fu Ji first identifies herself to Zhang Yu as an Evil God speaking in a crisp female voice within his mind. Their early relationship is tense, but she repeatedly shows weakness and makes herself useful by evaluating his talents, recommending suitable cultivation methods, and warning him away from dangerous Evil God-related entanglements. 125 126

After Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen help her consume a weakened Evil God, Fu Ji regains the status of a Low-level Evil God. She restores her ability to perform Rituals, interfere with surveillance, and enter the Divine Power Network of Kunxu First Layer. In return, she raises both Zhang Yu's and Bai Zhenzhen's potential, allowing the Feather Scroll to reveal its Chain Law Diagram. 185 186 188

Fu Ji later reaches Level 2 after capturing and digesting another Evil God. Her increased power allows her to communicate telepathically with believers, receive deliberately conveyed thoughts, and further increase Zhang Yu's potential. Though she privately views Bai Zhenzhen's recruitment by the Seven Emotions Divine Lord as a failed investment, she conceals her darker suspicions from Zhang Yu rather than disrupt his cultivation. 277

Upon discovering access to the Dark Spirit Realm, Fu Ji reveals extensive familiarity with its Divine Path technology. She presents herself to other Evil Gods as the Fortune God and a founding figure of the realm, using technical knowledge, intelligence gathering, and calculated exaggeration to make herself appear far more formidable than her current rank. 546

Her familiarity with the Dark Spirit Realm predates her first depicted entry into it: she remembers the project behind its creation and is surprised that its developers actually succeeded. Her recollections also refer to past work with an Evil God King and other colleagues, including schemes whose descriptions greatly exaggerated their true scope. The full circumstances of her former position and loss of power remain undisclosed. 546 573

Fu Ji establishes an ongoing intelligence relationship with Xi Shen's group after directing their attention toward Feng Yuhan and threatening to expose their demonic cult connections to Orthodox Gods. She later joins their long-term effort to investigate Reincarnated Mighty Ones, judging its immediate trading opportunities more useful than its distant promised rewards. In exchange for recovering Finance Department records through Zhang Yu, she obtains the Spirit Realm Substitute Technique. 547 572 573

During the conflict between the Ten Schools and the Righteous Qi Alliance, Bao Shen uses the Evil God Tome to compel her participation in Alliance activities. Although she initially fears its ability to contact and track Evil Gods, she also gains Alliance authority and substantial Evil God Power through her dealings with him. The Tome's intrusive summons eventually help prompt Zhang Yu to entrust her Black Pearl to Yu Xinghan for delivery to Bai Zhenzhen. 702 705 722 741

After consuming Xi Shen, Fu Ji awakens as a Level 3 Evil God and again enhances her believers' potential. Kuang Tianqing's later delivery of Xiang Shen lets her drain much of his power while keeping him alive as an intelligence source, but this is initially insufficient for Level 4. A subsequent Evil God supplied by Kuang Tianqing completes that advancement, and her enhanced power enables Zhang Yu to unlock the Feather Scroll's Law Aperture Chapter. 750 763 764 888 917

As Zhang Yu rises within the Myriad Laws Sect, Fu Ji increasingly acts as a political intermediary. During legislative training, she urges him to build an interest group with influential trainees rather than endanger himself through sweeping regulation of Law Articles. At his request, she uses Tai Yuebai's money and fabricated context around chat records to repair his relations with Bu Yingshu, Lie Jinghong, and Di Xuan. Once she learns that his larger legislative gamble is already underway, she shifts to advising secrecy and treating all parties as potential enemies. 950 951 959 961

Further Evil Gods supplied by Kuang Tianqing allow another status advancement and a period of dormancy. Upon awakening, Fu Ji raises Zhang Yu's potential again. She later witnesses the Ancestor Corpse's memories of Tan Taizhen and proposes monetizing the expanded Immortal Grotto-Heaven by separating private living space from rentable public areas. 986 995 1012 1013

Fu Ji eventually learns of Zhang Yu's Feather Scroll through slips made by the Sect Examination Clone. She begins connecting it to his extraordinary cultivation history and to the potential she has repeatedly stimulated, then gains a clearer appreciation of its power while observing later discussions of its functions. After reaching Level 6, she performs another enhancement Ritual; the ensuing upgrade and fusion of Feather Scrolls yield the Immortal Foundation Chapter. 1028 1049 1050 1051

Following this success, Fu Ji secures a tenfold increase in her antique-purchasing quota. She also proposes sending their controlled Evil Gods out to conduct business under Ritual restraints, hoping to gain greater practical authority, but Zhang Yu postpones the proposal. 1051

During the Bookholder Conference, Zhang Yu keeps Fu Ji and the other Evil Gods inside his Immortal Grotto-Heaven, where they initially follow events through a Spirit Realm livestream. When they later emerge into his shadows and become aware of his access to vast sect assets, Fu Ji eagerly proposes downloading the Myriad Laws Sect's cultivation methods and transferring as many cultivation resources as possible into the Grotto-Heaven. 1083

Appearance

Fu Ji has no stable physical body described in the available accounts. She normally manifests as a female voice in a believer's mind and adopts different vessels or projections depending on the setting. 125 277

• Black Pearl — her common dormant and transportable form after recovering Evil God status. 185 750
• Tattered cloth doll — used as her Ritual form, placed upon an altar as an Evil God symbol. 188
• Straw dummy — the form she shares with Zhang Yu while appearing in the Dark Spirit Realm. 684
• Rag doll — a more active form used to physically dominate the weakened Xiang Shen. 888

Personality

Fu Ji is intensely opportunistic, status-conscious, and motivated by profit. She treats alliances, investments, cultivation resources, and even personal relationships as assets to be assessed for return. She eagerly urges Zhang Yu to exploit support from multiple factions at once and consistently pushes him toward arrangements that increase their leverage. 277 702 888

Despite her greed and theatrical arrogance, Fu Ji is highly cautious. She considers safety the foremost priority for Evil Gods, understands the danger of confronting Orthodox Gods directly, and frequently advises Zhang Yu to gather intelligence rather than act recklessly. 555 702 732

Her loyalty is pragmatic rather than unconditional, but it becomes more genuine over time. When Zhang Yu notices her interest in the Dark Spirit Realm, she chooses to explain it rather than deceive him, recognizing that preserving his trust is valuable. She also takes pride in being the companion able to directly communicate with Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, and Yu Xinghan. 546 881

Fu Ji is highly competitive about her position among Zhang Yu's advisers. She resents Zhan Xian's growing influence, regards Wild Ox as another rival, and worries that their closeness to Zhang Yu will reduce her own authority. She deliberately cultivates relationships with Bai Zhenzhen and the other Evil Gods to strengthen her standing, while closely studying Zhang Yu's preferences so she can better present herself as indispensable. 791 797 828 902 913 1033

Her commercial outlook gradually accommodates some of Zhang Yu's methods. Though she once dismissed his habit of helping fellow townsfolk, his achievements lead her to recognize the value of bringing trusted people into the Sect to support future Law Articles and a Dao Orthodoxy. Nevertheless, she continues to favor profitable alliances and secure advancement over confronting powerful institutions head-on. 798 950 951 982

Her long-term financial ambition is to live from the returns on her investment in Zhang Yu. She explicitly imagines demanding more support as his income grows and retains a dream of becoming a Grotto-Heaven landlord who earns money through rentals. Even after obtaining a tenfold raise, she regrets not asking for more. 787 1013 1051

Abilities & Skills

Evil God Status and Potential Enhancement

Fu Ji's rank is determined by her Evil God status; higher status permits access to higher-level Divine Power Networks. 186

• Raises the potential of Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, and Yu Xinghan after her own advancements. 185 277 764
• Her potential enhancement manifests as a black-filled symbol in Zhang Yu's palm and unlocks new Feather Scroll functions after completion. 185 277 995
• Her Level 1 status is sufficient to invade Kunxu First Layer's Divine Power Network. 186
• Her power grows by consuming other Evil Gods, but digestion commonly forces her into prolonged dormancy. 185 277 750
• Distinguishes status from available Evil God Power: status grants access to Rituals and networks, while individual operations still consume power. She can replenish this power by slowly stealing divine power from networks or absorbing residual Incense and Fire Prayer Power in antiques. 186
• Her enhancements produce different results for different believers. At Level 4, Yu Xinghan gains powerful dynamic vision through his Three-Eyed Divine Power, while Bai Zhenzhen's lightning-spirit Magical Power improves her reactions and cultivation speed. 917 921
• Her Level 6 enhancement initiates another Feather Scroll upgrade. Together with the fusion of two Feather Scrolls, this results in the Immortal Foundation Chapter, which lets Zhang Yu draw upon Grand Dao Essence and accelerate his progress in seeking the Dao. 1050 1051

Rituals and Information Interference

After regaining Low-level Evil God status, Fu Ji can perform Rituals using offerings, an altar, a medium, Spiritual Energy-bearing divine objects, Evil God symbols, and incantations. 186 188

• Ritual effectiveness and detection risk depend on the quality of offerings and the Ritual's scale. 188
• Guided Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen in preparing Wish, Detection, and Anti-Detection Rituals to counter possible Patrol Team scrutiny. 188
• Can use Evil God Power to carry speech directly into a believer's mind across great distances. 684
• Understands how to cleanse or obscure traces left by Righteousness Points within the Dark Spirit Realm's underlying architecture. 684
• At Level 1, can maintain ten Rituals simultaneously. The Wish, Detection, and Anti-Detection Rituals on Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen occupy six of these slots. 188
• Can suppress and dismantle a Shadow Gu, absorb its Evil God Power, and analyze its embedded intelligence-transmission instructions. After doing so, she states that she can impersonate it to send false information and investigate its controller. 162
• Can conceal herself by withdrawing her consciousness and abandoning external observation, making herself resemble an inanimate object. Her Level 2 recovery substantially reduces the need to enter this dormant state to avoid ordinary detection, though intense scrutiny can still make concealment necessary. 149 277 637
• Uses a Time Remnant Demon Eye as a Ritual medium to connect her Evil God Power to the Spirit Realm Network. 295

Telepathic Believer Link

At Level 2, Fu Ji gains a direct mental link with her believers. 277

• Can project her voice into a believer's mind without spoken communication. 277
• Can receive thoughts intentionally directed toward her; she explicitly states that this is not unrestricted mind-reading. 277
• Maintains a secret communication channel between Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen when ordinary contact becomes dangerous. 881
• Can remain physically with Bai Zhenzhen while continuing to observe Zhang Yu's circumstances and maintain their mental connection. 873

Dark Spirit Realm Expertise

Fu Ji possesses unusually deep knowledge of the Dark Spirit Realm and its Divine Path technology. She claims to have participated in its foundational development, though this is her own assertion. 546

• Deciphers Dark Spirit Realm data embedded in a pearl left behind by Shadowless. 546
• Creates objects within the Dark Spirit Realm, including an elaborate chair used to establish authority before other Evil Gods. 546
• Uses familiarity with the realm's architecture to conceal information and manipulate other Evil Gods' perceptions. 546
• Constructs a Dark Spirit Realm inside Zhang Yu's Immortal Grotto-Heaven and is appointed its Chief Network Administrator. 861 883
• Understands the realm's original function as a safe meeting space in which Evil Gods cannot attack one another, allowing her to negotiate with stronger entities with less immediate physical risk. 546
• Uses meeting-room summoning functions and encrypted addresses to establish continuing contact with other Evil Gods. 547
• Acquires the Spirit Realm Substitute Technique, a hijacking technology that temporarily alters displayed personal information. She judges it difficult to expose unless it attracts an Orthodox God's attention. 573

Strategy, Finance, and Negotiation

Fu Ji's experience in deception and financial manipulation makes her Zhang Yu's principal adviser for covert dealings and company cost control. 176 465

• Evaluates risks, identifies exploitable conflicts, and proposes ways to turn enemies into assets rather than simply eliminate them. 554
• Serves remotely as finance director, managing and supervising Ying Xin through Zhang Yu's Dharma Skeleton. 465
• Challenges Zhang Yu's employee compensation policies as financially inefficient and pushes for aggressive cost optimization. 466 473
• Bargains with Xiang Shen for authority, intelligence, and Righteous Qi Alliance promotions rather than accepting low-value assignments. 707
• Recalls conducting university lending scams aimed at students seeking branded goods, reflecting prior experience exploiting status-driven consumption. 281
• Repairs strained political relationships through selective presentation of chat records, fabricated explanatory context, and strategically directed funds. 959
• Proposes dividing the Immortal Grotto-Heaven into private and public sections to generate rental income, and later suggests deploying Ritual-controlled Evil Gods on outside business projects. Neither proposal is immediately implemented in the depicted discussions. 1013 1051

Relationships

• Zhang Yu — Her believer, strategic partner, employer, and primary investment. Fu Ji guides his cultivation, raises his potential, advises him on political maneuvering, and manages his finances, while Zhang Yu remains wary of her opportunism. 126 277 465 His distrust persists even after years of cooperation: when entrusting her to Yu Xinghan, he orders that her pearl be destroyed if she acts abnormally. She nonetheless increasingly ties her ambitions to his success and secures a tenfold increase in her restricted antique-purchasing allowance after reaching Level 6. 741 1051
• Bai Zhenzhen — Fellow beneficiary of Fu Ji's potential enhancement. Fu Ji advises her on cultivation and risk-taking, later serves as a secret communication link between Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu. 185 218 881 Bai Zhenzhen comes to regard her as a comrade-in-arms who climbed from the First Layer alongside them. Fu Ji reinforces that bond by presenting herself as Bai Zhenzhen's supporter against Bu Yingshu, partly to strengthen her own position among Zhang Yu's companions. 873 881 1033
• Yu Xinghan — A believer connected through Fu Ji's long-distance telepathy. Zhang Yu entrusts Yu Xinghan with transporting Fu Ji's Black Pearl to Bai Zhenzhen during wartime. 684 712 741 Fu Ji's later enhancements improve his Three-Eyed Divine Power, including its dynamic vision. 764 921
• Xiang Shen — Fellow Evil God, intelligence contact, and recurring rival. Fu Ji cooperates with him in the Dark Spirit Realm, manipulates his plans for her own benefit, and eventually drains much of his Evil God Power after forcing his submission. 546 573 888 894 Though he privately hopes to replace her during her dormancy, he also flatters her and joins her alliance against Zhan Xian and Wild Ox's political influence. By her Level 6 advancement, he remains resentful of how easily he believes she has risen. 917 930 950 951 1050
• Bao Shen — An Evil God contact within the Righteous Qi Alliance. Bao Shen grants Fu Ji authority through the Evil God Tome, while Fu Ji later forms an offensive and defensive alliance with him and Xiang Shen. 702 705 951 In later discussions within Zhang Yu's circle, Bao Shen addresses her as Boss Fu Ji and helps reinterpret her remarks favorably when Zhan Xian challenges her analysis. 980
• Bu Yingshu — A powerful figure whose favor toward Zhang Yu Fu Ji regards as politically valuable. Fu Ji repeatedly urges Zhang Yu to preserve and exploit this connection. 877 950 She simultaneously warns Bai Zhenzhen about Bu Yingshu's hostility and manages communications intended to preserve Zhang Yu's access to her assistance. 873 1033
• Xi Shen — An early Dark Spirit Realm contact who recruits Fu Ji into the investigation of Reincarnated Mighty Ones and trades the Spirit Realm Substitute Technique for recovered records. Fu Ji later consumes him after his defeat, enabling her recovery to Level 3. 546 573 750 763
• Zhan Xian and Wild Ox — Rival advisers whose influence over Zhang Yu Fu Ji finds threatening. She resents Zhan Xian's privileged access to Zhang Yu's secrets and views both figures as dangerous advocates of risks that could destroy their favorable political position. She organizes Xiang Shen and Bao Shen into an alliance to oppose them during legislation. 791 828 913 950 951
• Kuang Tianqing — Supplier of captured Evil Gods through transactions with Zhang Yu. His deliveries provide Xiang Shen and later the power required for further advancements, though Fu Ji suspects that the quality of supplied Evil Gods is deliberately controlled to influence Zhang Yu's decisions. 888 917 983 986

Story Role

• Cultivation adviser — Identifies Zhang Yu's suitable cultivation paths, recommends the Great Sun Qi Sea and mental cultivation methods, and helps him understand threats posed by rival Evil Gods. 125 126
• Feather Scroll catalyst — Her recovered Evil God status allows her to raise Zhang Yu's potential, unlocking the Chain Law Diagram and later further Feather Scroll pages. 185 277 917 995 Her Level 6 advancement supplies another enhancement that, alongside the fusion of two Feather Scrolls, leads to the Immortal Foundation Chapter. 1050 1051
• Ritual specialist — Establishes surveillance-countering Rituals when Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen fear investigation by the Patrol Team. 186 188
• Dark Spirit Realm operator — Introduces Zhang Yu to the Evil Gods' hidden meeting space, brokers exchanges with Xi Shen and others, and uses its systems to obtain intelligence. 546 573 684

• Wartime communications support — Uses expanded Ritual Power to relay Zhang Yu's warnings to Yu Xinghan across thousands of miles and assists with intelligence during the conflict between the Ten Schools and the Righteous Qi Alliance. 684 722
• Immortal Grotto-Heaven administrator — Builds and manages the Grotto-Heaven's internal Dark Spirit Realm, linking the Calculation Pool and other equipment to Zhang Yu's control network. 861 883
• Political operator — Encourages Zhang Yu to form alliances across competing factions and to turn widespread demand for his support into political leverage. 950 951 959
• Evil God management advocate — Seeks to expand her authority by organizing the Evil Gods under Zhang Yu into externally deployed business operators controlled through Rituals, though Zhang Yu defers the proposal. 1051
• Resource acquisition adviser — After emerging from the Grotto-Heaven during the Bookholder Conference, immediately advocates securing sect cultivation methods and movable cultivation resources. 1083
