Nuwa and PanguIn China myths and legends, Pangu and Nuwa both had extremely important positions.
Pangu's story happened during the chaos of the world. The universe was like a huge egg of chaos, and Pangu slept in it for 18,000 years. When Pangu woke up, he felt that his surroundings were stuffy and hot, so he picked up the ax and split the chaotic "egg". The clear and light things rose to the sky, and the turbid and heavy things sank to the ground. After that, Pangu was worried that heaven and earth would be closed again, so he lifted the sky with his arms and made himself taller by ten feet every day. In turn, the sky also rose by ten feet, and the earth became thicker by ten feet. This continued for eighteen thousand years until heaven and earth were fixed. After Pan Gu died, every part of his body turned into the sun, moon, stars, the four poles and five mountains of the earth, rivers, lakes, seas, roads, fields, forests, minerals, pearls, jade, wind, clouds, rain, snow, and all other things in the world.
Nuwa appeared in the world after Pangu created the world. When Goddess Nvywa walked on the earth, she saw that although there were mountains, rivers, plants, birds and beasts in the world, she felt that this world lacked creatures like herself, so she began to create humans. She first molded her reflection in the water into a clay figurine, then blew air into the clay figurine to make it live. Later, she felt that the speed was too slow, so she dipped a branch in mud and sprinkled it on the ground to create humans. Nuwa had also refined stones to mend the sky and take care of the world.
Some people believed that Pangu created the world, Nüwa molded earth to make people perfect the world, and refined stones to mend the sky to take care of the world. The two of them played the role of creating and perfecting the world in their respective mythological narrations. In most legends, they were not directly related. However, there were also some special explanations that had different speculations about their relationship.
