Background

Li Changsheng is an alien soul who transmigrates into the newly born Primordial World and awakens as the Creation Green Lotus, an innate spiritual root formed from the core essence seed of the Primordial Chaos Lotus. Although his true body possesses the supreme Dao of Creation, he begins unable to speak, move freely, or assume human form. He knows that the Three Pure Ones are fated to dismember the Creation Green Lotus and refine it into treasures, making his survival dependent on breaking the Heavenly Dao's restraints first 1.

He cultivates relentlessly in a hidden minor world centered on Three Radiances Divine Water, absorbing innate spiritual energy and origin power. The sanctuary and his survival were arranged by Pangu's remnant consciousness, which protected the damaged Creation Green Lotus after the opening of heaven and earth 1 2.

After revealing the Primordial World's future decline to Pangu, Li Changsheng accepts a bargain: Pangu will help him take form and transmit his inheritance, while Li Changsheng must attempt to avert the calamities that lead to the Age of Dharma Decline 2 3. He receives the Heaven-Opening Origin, nine Heaven-Opening Marks, and the Green Lotus Genesis Scripture, then patiently cultivates until his ninth lotus leaf is complete 4.

When his transformation draws the Great Dao's punishment, Pangu intervenes. Li Changsheng successfully assumes human form, escaping the fate of being merely a spiritual root awaiting harvest 5.

Appearance

After taking form, Li Changsheng appears as a tall, handsome young man in blue-green robes. His presence combines youthful innocence with an innate nobility associated with the Dao of Creation 5.

• Fair, slender hands and a tall, straight build 5
• Blue-green Daoist robes, initially fashioned from Three Radiances Divine Water 5
• Faint divine light of Creation surrounding his body 5
• An otherworldly, refined temperament likened to a favored child of the Great Dao 5

Personality

Li Changsheng is intensely survival-driven. His initial panic at learning his fate gives way to stubborn determination; rather than accept dismemberment by the Three Pure Ones, he commits himself to cultivation despite seemingly absolute Heavenly Dao restrictions 1.

He is pragmatic and cautious with major opportunities. He absorbs the Heaven-Opening Origin gradually rather than risk attracting the Great Dao's attention, refuses to forcibly mature the Pure World White Lotus, and returns to Pangu's sanctuary before refining the Creation Demon God's origin in case it contains hidden dangers 4 12 21.

He also has a playful and opportunistic side. He teases the young qilin Mo Yuan, nurtures Fuxi and Nuwa's origins to form a future connection, and shamelessly pesters Pangu for a protective treasure until he receives the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler 6 7 8.

Abilities & Skills

Dao of Creation

Li Changsheng's innate Dao is Creation, inherited through his origin as the Creation Green Lotus. It grants him exceptional vitality, nurturing power, and compatibility with Creation-related treasures and origins 1 9.

• Breaks the natural seal around the Creation Demon God's secret realm 18
• Forms Creation Secret Art restraints capable of sealing Taotie's body, meridians, and soul 14

• His Creation power is less suited to direct killing than to vitality, evolution, and nourishment 10

Green Lotus Genesis Scripture

Pangu created the Green Lotus Genesis Scripture after comprehending the Primordial Chaos Lotus's origin. It is Li Changsheng's core cultivation method and combines the Daos of Creation, heaven-opening, and world creation 4.

• Perfectly matches the Creation Green Lotus and strengthens his foundation 4
• Deepens his comprehension of Creation and helps fracture the shackles blocking his transformation 4
• Is described as leading directly toward the Hunyuan Wuji Great Luo Golden Immortal realm 4

Heaven-Opening Inheritance

Pangu's inheritance includes nine Heaven-Opening Marks, cultivation arts, divine abilities, formations, restrictions, alchemy, and artifact forging knowledge 4 7.

• A trace of the first Heaven-Opening Mark injures and suppresses Taotie 10
• The marks carry distinct intents, including heaven-opening dominance, earth-splitting weight, vitality, and destructive sharpness 4
• His inheritance allows him to study and break high-grade innate formations, including formations on Mount Zhou and Yingzhou Island 7 11

• Removes Taotie's external baleful aura, though an unknown force within Taotie resists complete purification 13
• Complements his Dao of Creation in combat and defense 18 19

Formation and Great Dao Deduction

Li Changsheng applies Pangu's inherited knowledge to analyze innate formations rather than relying solely on brute force 7.

• Studies an innate formation on Mount Zhou for a century before breaking it 7
• Locates and breaks the formation concealing Yingzhou Island and the Pure World White Lotus 11
• Identifies the structural weakness of the naturally formed seal around the Creation Demon God's secret realm 18

Physical Body and Chaos Affinity

His body is formed from the Creation Green Lotus and strengthened by Heaven-Opening Origin. At the Great Luo stage, it is compared to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure in toughness 6.

• Mount Zhou's immense Pangu pressure has almost no effect on him 7
• Chaos spiritual qi, harmful to ordinary Primordial beings, instead refreshes and clears his body and mind 11
• His flesh and soul are described as highly resistant to corruption and evil contamination 19

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Heaven-Opening Origin — Golden residual origin power from Pangu's opening of heaven, used cautiously to nourish Li Changsheng's true body and support his cultivation 4.
• Nine Heaven-Opening Marks — Core elements of Pangu's inheritance, containing profound heaven-opening intent and suppressive power 4 10.

Relationships

• Pangu — Savior, patron, mentor, and the architect of Li Changsheng's mission. Pangu protected the Creation Green Lotus, enabled Li Changsheng's transformation, granted his inheritance and the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, and expects him to preserve the Primordial World 2 3 4 5 7.
• Taotie — Former enemy and subject of Li Changsheng's transformation experiment. Li Changsheng suppresses, purifies, and ultimately helps Taotie use its Devouring Law to assimilate conflicting forces 10 13 14.
• Shen Ni — Emperor of the ferocious beasts and hostile claimant of Taotie. Their East Sea battle ends when Li Changsheng's World-Cleansing Divine Light suppresses Shen Ni's baleful qi and forces him to withdraw 15 16 17.
• Fuxi — Encountered only as an unconscious origin sphere. Li Changsheng gives it Creation energy to establish goodwill before its birth 8.
• Nuwa — Encountered only as an unconscious origin sphere. Her Creation-compatible origin receives Li Changsheng's nurturing energy 8.
• Mo Yuan — An immature qilin whom Li Changsheng playfully pranks during his early exploration of the Primordial World 8.
• Creation Demon God — A long-dead Chaos Demon God whose remaining corpse, origin, embryo, and World Tree seed become major sources of opportunity for Li Changsheng 6 19 20 21.

Major Arcs

Defying the Fate of the Creation Green Lotus

Li Changsheng awakens as an innate spiritual root destined to be dismembered by the Three Pure Ones. He cultivates in Pangu's hidden sanctuary, meets Pangu's remnant will, accepts the task of changing the Primordial World's future, and successfully takes human form against the Great Dao's restrictions 1 2 3 4 5.

Exploring the Primordial World

After leaving Mount Zhou with the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, Li Changsheng investigates opportunities and the developing Monstrous Beast Calamity. He discovers Fuxi and Nuwa before their birth and concludes that the calamity is a flawed attempt by heaven and earth to cleanse Heaven-Opening baleful energy 7 8.

Taotie's Transformation

Li Changsheng suppresses Taotie after testing the Heaven-Opening Mark, then seeks the Pure World White Lotus as a means to purify the ferocious beasts. When ordinary cleansing proves insufficient, he uses Creation, World-Cleansing power, and a White Lotus leaf to guide Taotie's Devouring Law into assimilating both baleful and purifying forces 10 11 12 13 14.

Conflict with Shen Ni

Shen Ni ambushes Li Changsheng after sensing Taotie. Li Changsheng confronts the ferocious-beast emperor in the East Sea with the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, eventually using World-Cleansing Divine Light to suppress Shen Ni's baleful qi and drive him away 15 16 17.

Creation Demon God's Legacy

Li Changsheng enters the sealed secret realm at the Eastern Sea Shore, extracts the Creation Demon God's core origin, recovers its embryo, and cultivates a World Tree seed using the remnant corpse. He later returns to Pangu's sanctuary and refines part of the Creation origin, breaking through to the Mixed Realm Golden Immortal realm 18 19 20 21.
