The Record of the Phoenix Diagram and Trigrams

Huang Fengjiu's childhood ended with a palace coup known as the “Night Parade of the Hundred Kui.” That night, dense black fog shrouded the imperial palace of the Huang Kingdom, and countless monsters called Kui crawled out of the shadows, devouring members of the royal family. With his dying breath, her father stuffed a fragment of the Phoenix Diagram into her arms, then had palace guards escort her out through a secret passage. During the ten years she spent in exile, she concealed her identity and taught herself astrology and the Eight Trigrams in a dilapidated Taoist temple. The world's distorted laws meant that every glimpse into the secrets of fate altered her body. She once watched her own shadow split into countless tentacles beneath the moonlight. When she was cornered by the Kui, she accidentally stumbled upon a forgotten Taiji altar. Her blood activated the yin-yang symbol carved upon it, awakening her spirit companions Tongbi and Qianyao. These two beings were more than partners: they were vital anchors that helped her preserve her sanity and balance the Five Elements churning within her. She never stopped searching for the truth behind the fall of the Huang Kingdom, unaware that she had already become the ultimate sacrificial offering coveted by every evil force.
