Background / History
Nuwa and her elder brother Fuxi emerged roughly a million years before Chen Xuan’s arrival and cultivated at Buzhou Mountain. Her secluded dojo was a private small world which even Fuxi had never entered. When Chen Xuan appeared there through the passage beneath his bed, Nuwa regarded the untrained stranger as a potential threat and demanded proof that he came from a later era 1 3.
Chen Xuan brought Nuwa to 2010-era Earth, where she adopted the name Feng Xi. The Age of Dharma’s End left her unable to freely use major divine arts, though her Dao Fruit remained intact. Initially disdainful of modern humanity and its depleted spiritual environment, she gradually adapted to television, the internet, modern clothing, farming, food, and driving 2 3 11 32.
After returning to the Primordial World, Nuwa reunited with Fuxi after what had been only days for her but ten thousand years in primordial time. Alongside Fuxi, she taught later-generation cultivation methods at Buzhou Mountain, leading countless beings to breakthroughs and earning descending heavenly merit 16 17.
Nuwa later used the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, Three-Light Divine Water, and the Innate Gourd Vine to create 12,960 humans. She named them the Human Race, accepted the title of their Mother, and received boundless merit. She subsequently became a Saint and founded Wa Huang Palace 119 120.
Appearance
Nuwa ordinarily appears as an exceptionally beautiful and dignified woman whose presence carries a natural affinity with heaven and earth. Her true manifestation is a human-headed serpent body surrounded by sacred or multicolored divine light 1 40.
- Can transform between her serpent-bodied true form and a human appearance at will 1 2.
- Her true body is described as an embodiment of the Dao; she states that mortals cannot perceive it unless she permits them to do so 11.
- In the modern era, she adopts varied outfits, including snow-white robes, white dresses, and modern high heels 2 11.
- Her serpent form has an iridescent, colorful tail and regal bearing 1.
- As a Saint, she manifests seven-colored divine light, with the Great Dao revolving around her 120.
Personality
Nuwa is initially guarded, proud, and decisive. Chen Xuan’s unexplained intrusion into her dojo prompts her to conceal heavenly secrets, interrogate him, and threaten his death if he lies 1. She maintains a powerful sense of divine dignity, particularly when mortals or enemies disrespect her authority.
Her time in the modern world reveals a curious and adaptable side. She learns from advertisements, studies history and technology, enjoys television and snacks, and develops an enthusiasm for driving three-wheeled motorcycles. Despite her Saintly status, she is repeatedly characterized as a homebody 3 11 32 120.
Nuwa is compassionate toward living beings and takes her role as humanity’s creator seriously. She creates the Human Race to bring vitality to the Primordial World, later intervenes to save the Immortal Domain of all Heavens, and isolates it from the polluting God Realm despite the cost to its future ascendants 119 482.
Around Chen Xuan, Nuwa becomes teasing, competitive, easily embarrassed, and emotionally inexperienced. Their relationship develops from mutual suspicion into affection, marriage, and long-term partnership 115 155 301 302.
