Background / History
The Illusion God is the deity of the Thousand Illusion Clan, a comparatively neutral divine clan that worships Phantom Spirit. Oaths sworn upon Phantom Spirit are binding even upon the clan's gods. Her clan possesses the Silver Star Realm's only spatial sacred artifact, the Crystal Palace, which has been preserved as a means of survival. 367 370
Seeking a path beyond godhood, she became interested in the Saint inheritance available to gods and Venerables of the Silver Star Alliance. Her particular objective was the spiritual Seventh Heaven secret art within the inheritance, which she believed could offer a chance to become a Saint. 366 367
After reviewing Lu Chong's battle and cultivation records, she chose him as a potential inheritor despite his status as an outsider. She offered protection, rewards, and an alliance in exchange for his attempt to retrieve the desired secret art. 367
Following the inheritance expedition, she shielded Lu Chong from the Black Dragon God's accusations, accepted his incomplete replica of the Seven Heavens Spirit Secret Art, and promised him continued protection and a Metal Law Origin Stone if he located the complete inheritance. 385 386
Her alliance with Lu Chong deepened after he became a god. In return for his promise of the complete Seven Heavens Spirit Secret Art, she agreed to support him against the Black Dragon God and Fire God. 430

Personality
The Illusion God is consistently gentle, composed, and diplomatic, even while negotiating with hostile gods. She prefers calculated alliances and long-term investments over open confrontation. 366 370
She is perceptive and cautious. Although she recognizes that Lu Chong conceals his true capabilities and likely lied about Dragon Howl Venerable's death, she chooses to protect and observe him rather than expose him. 400
Her concern for Lu Chong is genuine but pragmatic. She repeatedly warns him against confronting stronger enemies prematurely, encourages him to enter the Holy Land selection, and worries about the danger of its later rounds. 419 430 448 460
