Background / History

Fuxi is a transmigrator who awoke as the serpent-tailed Fuxi of the Primordial World after falling asleep during overtime work in his previous life. He and Nuwa took form together at the southern foot of Mount Buzhou, where he immediately resolved to protect her and oppose the fate he associated with Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao 34.

Before fully understanding the altered state of the Primordial World, Fuxi attempted to walk upstream through the River of Time. Shichen stopped him, exposed his identity as a transmigrator, and warned that forcing his way to Pangu's world-creation time node would extinguish his soul. Fuxi withdrew after Shichen advised him to seek Hongjun 19.

During the Dao-Devil conflict, an entity identifying itself as Fate bestowed the Innate Bagua and the path of prophetic fate upon him. The same entity made clear that Fuxi was a pawn whose trajectory had been altered, threatening to suppress him in the River of Fate should he disrupt the Primordial World 38.

Fuxi later attended Hongjun's sermons with Nuwa, claimed no Prayer Mat for himself, and guarded her while she took the fourth one 49. He became one of Hongjun's personal disciples, receiving a strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi 60.

After revealing his transmigrator identity to Hongjun, Fuxi begged for Nuwa to be allowed to prove the Dao through the laws of Creation rather than be bound to merit-bestowed Sagehood. Heavenly Dao Shichen summoned the Fate Demon God, who transferred Nuwa's destined Sage position to Fuxi 58 59.

Following the rise of Human Dao, Fuxi was formally selected by Heavenly Dao Shichen and the Fate Dao Venerable to become the Human Sovereign. He traveled to the Human Race's ancestral land to guide humanity and refine his Hongmeng Purple Qi through the merit of enlightenment 124.

Fuxi lived among the Human Race in the guise of an ordinary innate human. By teaching writing, medicine, mathematics, geography, calendars, solar terms, and other knowledge from his previous life, he accelerated the Human Race's development and helped establish its civilization alongside Shennong and Xuanyuan 127.

The three human progenitors later entrusted the Kongtong Seal to Fuxi. Its activation gathered Human Dao destiny and merit, enabling him to fully refine his Hongmeng Purple Qi and ascend as a Sage bearing the title of Human Emperor 127.

As Human Emperor, Fuxi attempted to protect Human Dao from being absorbed into the authority of the Heavenly Dao. He opposed the Sages' attempt to bind their lineages to the Human Race, but Heavenly Dao Shichen rejected the arrangement and limited the Sages to the role of teachers 127 128.

During the later Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, Fuxi initially attempted to remain in seclusion while the Human Race and other factions fought. The weakening of Human Dao fortune and the deaths of countless humans forced him to reassess his position. He recognized that his attachment to humanity had distorted his Dao Heart, but continued to intervene to preserve Human Dao 196.

When the Shang Dynasty approached the fate associated with King Zhou, Fuxi removed Di Xin's primordial spirit and placed the soul of another transmigrator into Di Xin's body. He intended for the replacement soul to alter the dynasty's destined course, promising to restore Di Xin's primordial spirit afterward 196.

Heavenly Dao Shichen subsequently identified Fuxi as an anomaly and warned that seeking an independent Human Dao carried a price. Zulong and Dijiang then attacked Fuxi's cave abode, forcing him and Nuwa to enter the Tribulation despite their desire to remain uninvolved 200.

Fuxi's Innate Bagua Diagram was shattered by the combined attack, and he was severely injured. Nuwa intervened to protect him, but both siblings were ultimately compelled to participate in the wider conflict as representatives of the Human Race 200.

After the Tribulation ended, Fuxi remained under Heavenly Dao Shichen's scrutiny because of his use of Di Xin and the transmigrator soul. He was present when Shichen established the Chaos Academy, although the initial list of students focused on other major Primordial World experts 210 211.

Appearance

Fuxi is a handsome, refined man with a human upper body and a serpent tail. When encountered in the River of Time, he wore plain Daoist robes marked with faint Five Elements and Eight Trigrams patterns 19 34.

  • Human body with a serpent tail 34
  • Refined, handsome appearance 34
  • Daoist robes bearing Five Elements and Eight Trigrams motifs 19
  • Often manifests the Innate Bagua around himself 38 49
  • As Human Emperor, can appear in a radiant Sage form while holding the Kongtong Seal 127

Personality

Fuxi is intensely protective of Nuwa. His decisions—from tracing the River of Time to accepting the Three Corpses path and confessing to Hongjun—are driven by his determination to keep her free from manipulation 19 44 58.

His knowledge of a different “original” future leaves him suspicious of Hongjun, the Heavenly Dao, and Sagehood by merit. However, repeated encounters with Shichen and the surviving Chaos Demon Gods force him to abandon his assumptions and adapt to the reality of this altered world 48 57.

He can also be calculating when circumstances allow. When Taiyi requested Nuwa officiate his heavenly wedding, Fuxi exploited Taiyi's dependence on Hongjun's disciples and secured nine top-grade innate spiritual treasures in return 75.

After becoming involved with the Human Race, Fuxi demonstrates a strong sense of responsibility toward humanity. He refuses to let other Sage lineages share Human Dao fortune without accepting equivalent risks, requiring them to share the Human Race's prosperity and ruin alike before Heavenly Dao Shichen rejects the proposed oath 127 128.

Though he respects Shichen's overwhelming authority, Fuxi remains unsettled by the merger of the Heavenly Dao and the Time Dao Venerable. He distinguishes between the emotional but impartial Dao Venerable he once met and the emotionless yet partial Heavenly Dao Shichen 128.

Fuxi's devotion to the Human Race eventually becomes an attachment that affects his judgment. After seeing human deaths across countless worlds, he admits that he has become too emotionally invested in humanity and has forgotten the existence of higher powers governing the Primordial World 196.

Despite recognizing this flaw, Fuxi remains willing to violate an individual's autonomy for the sake of Human Dao's survival. His removal of Di Xin's primordial spirit demonstrates the increasingly desperate and morally compromising measures he is prepared to take as Human Emperor 196.

Fuxi also retains a strong independent will. Even after becoming a Sage, he attempts to establish safeguards for Human Dao and resists the Heavenly Dao's restrictions, though he is ultimately unable to oppose Heavenly Dao Shichen directly 128 196.

Method of Slashing the Three Corpses

Although he had comprehended the Law of Innate Foresight, Fuxi chose the Three Corpses path out of concern that Nuwa could otherwise be controlled 58.

  • Extracted Di Xin's primordial spirit from his body 196
  • Inserted the soul of another transmigrator into Di Xin's body to attempt to alter the Shang Dynasty's destined fate 196
  • Intended to restore Di Xin's primordial spirit after the replacement soul changed the Human Race's situation 196
  • His interference attracted the attention of Heavenly Dao Shichen and marked him as an anomaly under scrutiny 200 211

Relationships

  • Nuwa — Younger sister and closest priority; Fuxi is determined to protect her freedom and alter the fate that would bind her to merit-bestowed Sagehood 34 58 59.

Story Role / Major Arcs

River of Time Incident

Fuxi's upstream journey through the River of Time leads to his first encounter with Shichen. His identity as a transmigrator is exposed, and he learns that the Primordial World differs fundamentally from the future he knew 19.

Rebirth at Mount Buzhou

After taking form alongside Nuwa, Fuxi resolves to change their expected destinies. His protectiveness toward Nuwa becomes the central motive behind his cultivation and political choices 34.

Fate's Pawn

The Fate Demon God grants him the Innate Bagua and foresight, but makes clear that Fuxi's transmigration and altered trajectory are part of a larger scheme 38.

Purple Heaven Palace

Fuxi pushes himself to reach Daluo Golden Immortal, travels with Nuwa to Purple Heaven Palace, guards her claim to a Prayer Mat, and becomes Hongjun's personal disciple 48 49 60.

Changing Nuwa's Destiny

Fuxi slashes out his Evil Corpse and confesses his identity to Hongjun in exchange for a chance to free Nuwa from her predetermined Sage path. Heavenly Dao Shichen and the Fate Demon God transfer that fate to Fuxi instead 58 59.

Human Race and Delayed Sagehood

Fuxi assists Nuwa in creating the Human Race, advancing to Three-Corpse Quasi-Sage through the resulting fortune and merit. He later states that he is waiting for the Human Race's opportunity to become a Sage as the Human Emperor 86 105.

Rise of Human Dao

When Human Dao rises, Fuxi is chosen as Human Sovereign by Heavenly Dao Shichen and the Fate Dao Venerable. He enters the Human Race in disguise, teaches civilization and practical knowledge, and helps humanity prosper alongside Shennong and Xuanyuan 124 127.

Human Emperor and Sagehood

The human progenitors give Fuxi the Kongtong Seal in recognition of his contributions. The seal activates Human Dao destiny and, together with immense merit, allows him to refine Hongmeng Purple Qi and become a Sage and Human Emperor 127.

Fuxi initially opposes the Sages' attempt to gain Human Dao fortune without sharing the Human Race's risks. Although he persuades them to swear such oaths, Heavenly Dao Shichen intervenes and rules that Sage lineages cannot be bound to the Human Race in that manner 127 128.

Mending the Heavens Crisis

After a Chaos battle tears a breach in the Primordial World's heavens, Fuxi proposes using Five-Colored Soil, Nine Heavens Breathing Earth, and Solar Divine Flame to refine Five-Colored Stones. He personally visits Di Jun's Ancient Heavenly Court to borrow a wisp of Solar Divine Flame for Nuwa's refinement 137.

Human Dao Crisis and Di Xin's Fate

During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, Fuxi discovers that Human Dao fortune is weakening and that Human Race casualties are spreading across the Myriad Heavens. His inability to identify the cause through prophecy forces him to acknowledge the limits of his Sagehood and his excessive attachment to humanity 196.

To prevent the Human Race from following the destined downfall of the Shang Dynasty, Fuxi removes Di Xin's primordial spirit and replaces it with the soul of another transmigrator. This desperate intervention attempts to change the fate of King Zhou and preserve the Human Dao 196.

Forced Entry into the Tribulation

Fuxi's attempt to remain neutral ends when Zulong and Dijiang attack his cave abode. They argue that the Human Emperor and the Human Race's Holy Mother must participate in the Tribulation rather than wait for others to fight and accumulate fortune.

Fuxi's Innate Bagua Diagram is destroyed, and he is severely injured. Nuwa arrives to defend him, but both are drawn into the conflict as every major Grand Unity Golden Immortal and Sage becomes involved in the Tribulation 200.

Heavenly Dao Scrutiny

After Fuxi's intervention in Di Xin's fate, Heavenly Dao Shichen identifies him as an anomaly and warns that Human Dao independence requires him to bear a corresponding price 200. Following the Tribulation, Heavenly Dao Shichen continues to observe him, apparently aware that Fuxi is using a transmigrator to alter the Human Race's destiny 211.

Post-Tribulation Era

After the Tribulation ends, Shichen establishes the Chaos Academy to transmit the Demon God Dao and higher principles of the Great Dao. Fuxi is not named among the first announced students, while major Primordial World powers such as Haotian, the Three Pure Ones, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Hong Yun, and Zulong are selected 210.
