Background / History

Water Cloud originated as one of three rudimentary water, fire, and wind figures nurtured within Red Cloud's Boundless Cloud Sea. Her aura was linked to Red Cloud's, and she was later recognized as one of his origin-level incarnations and siblings alongside Fire Cloud and Wind Cloud. 4 53

By the time Red Cloud reached the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, Water Cloud had chosen the Formation Dao as her foundation, with the Water Law as her secondary path. Her principal cultivation method was the Water Cloud Diagram, adapted from Red Cloud's Red Cloud Dao Scripture. 32

She delayed taking form even after reaching Peak Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, seeking an opportunity to improve her innate foundation. That opportunity came at Wealth-Bringing Mountain, where the Superior-grade Innate Spiritual Root Money Tree recognized her as fated to it. Water Cloud harmonized with the tree, used it to elevate her origin, and took form as an Early-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. 64 65

Appearance

Water Cloud is a graceful woman with a gentle bearing and a watery blue Daoist robe. Before taking form, her figure was hazy; afterward, she possessed a fully formed Primordial Dao Body and an imposing immortal presence. 32 65

• Gentle-looking, with a mild temperament. 32
• Dresses in flowing watery blue robes. 65
• Has a slender waist and a graceful, luxurious bearing. 65
• Her eyes are described as carrying a fleeting watery charm. 65

Personality

Water Cloud is generally mild and composed, but she is neither passive nor hesitant when confronted over her treasures. She openly expresses disgust toward the Six-Winged Golden Cicada's sinister aura and confidently insists on handling him herself. 32 66

She is proud of her Formation Dao and playful in her exchanges with Red Cloud. After defeating the cicada, she dismisses him as someone unworthy of forcing out her true strength. 68

Though closely connected to Red Cloud, Water Cloud seeks her own opportunities. After securing the Money Tree, she chooses to travel the Primordial World alone and plans to reunite with him in the future. 68

Abilities & Skills

Formation Dao

Water Cloud's primary Dao is the Formation Dao. She uses formations both as large-scale battlefields and as tools for analysis, infiltration, and treasure-seeking. 32 66 78

• Created the Boundless Formation, which covertly envelops the surrounding void and traps opponents within its changing structure. 66
• Used Deep Blue Judgment to turn water into spears of judgment within the Boundless Formation. 66
• Broke through Wuyi Mountain's Innate Formation and later comprehended the Innate Illusory Spirit Wealth-Gathering Formation beneath Heavenheart Rock. 78
• Connects her Primordial Spirit to the Illustrated Record of Literary Fortune to accelerate formation deduction. 78
• Received a core Formation Dao inheritance from a fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation. 88

Judgment and Water Cloud Karmic Fire

Water Cloud can pass judgment upon those she considers guilty. Her power causes targets to experience an overwhelming sense of guilt; if accepted, that guilt may turn into lethal force. 67

• Pronounced the Six-Winged Golden Cicada guilty for coveting her treasure, nearly forcing him into self-condemnation. 67
• Wields Water Cloud Karmic Fire, invoking karmic retribution against sinners. 67
• Her judgment can be resisted by sufficiently strong defensive power or mental resolve. 67

Heaven's Net and Earth's Snare

Heaven's Net and Earth's Snare is Water Cloud's most wide-ranging and troublesome Formation Dao divine ability. It layers formations around a target and turns tiny worlds within the formation into spatial nodes. 67 68

• Ground the Golden Cicada Blade's blade soul apart through successive layers of formations. 68
• Disrupts local spatial fluctuations and causes the trapped area to shift constantly. 68
• Can manifest a Hand of All Heavens from its internal worlds to deliver overwhelming force. 68
• Killed the Six-Winged Golden Cicada after overwhelming his defenses and trapping him within the formation. 68

Water Law and Spatial Travel

Water Cloud supplements her Formation Dao with the Water Law, using water-based defenses and attacks while steadily deepening her comprehension through cultivation. 32 67 79

• Used water curtains and Surging Water Waves to neutralize or erode the Six-Winged Golden Cicada's attacks. 66 67
• Her Water Law advanced significantly during her enlightenment with Big Red Robe Mother Tea. 79
• Traveled to Wuyi Mountain through repeated spatial tears and teleportations, recalculating her route after each jump. 78

• Wind Cloud — Fellow origin incarnation and sibling. Water Cloud planned to give him the Golden Cicada Blade for reforging after his advancement. 53 68

Story Role / Major Arcs

Taking Form and the Money Tree

Water Cloud emerged from the Boundless Cloud Veil after sensing her connection to the Money Tree. With Red Cloud's approval, she harmonized with the tree, took form, and became an Early-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal with eighth-grade Three Flowers. 65 66

Battle with the Six-Winged Golden Cicada

When the Six-Winged Golden Cicada pursued the Money Tree's treasure light, Water Cloud volunteered to fight him alone. She used the Boundless Formation, karmic judgment, and Heaven's Net and Earth's Snare to destroy his blade soul, kill him, and claim the Golden Cicada Blade. 66 67 68

Search for the Treasure-Dropping Coin

After separating from Red Cloud, Water Cloud traveled east for hundreds of thousands of years in search of the Treasure-Dropping Coin and Treasure-Gathering Basin. She located Wuyi Mountain, mastered its formations, and gained the Treasure-Dropping Coin after it recognized the Money Tree's aura. 68 78

Enlightenment at Wuyi Mountain

Water Cloud collected and brewed the first batch of Big Red Robe Mother Tea. Its effects brought her into enlightenment, deepened her Water Law and Formation Dao, and advanced her to Mid-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. 79

Pangu's Treasure Land

Water Cloud later reunited with Red Cloud, Blood Cloud, Fire Cloud, and Wind Cloud at Buzhou Mountain. She received the Formation Dao inheritance and a green lotus seed from the treasure land connected to the Creation Green Lotus, then departed north to continue exploring alone. 87 88
