Shiji Niangniang (Chinese: 石磯娘娘; lit. 'Lady Rocky') is a goddess in Chinese religion and character in the 16th-century Chinese novel, Fengshen Yanyi.[1] Before becoming goddess, she was a 10,000-year-old demoness.[2] It was originally a stone and was born outside the heavens and the earth, during the Chaos era and the Xuanhuang era.[3][4]
