Weixinist theology is rooted in a mythical history of Chinese culture and civilization, largely derived from the tradition of Chinese folk religion. This history starts with the ''[[Kunlun Mountain (mythology)|Kunlun]]''. The Kunlun civilization is said to have flourished in remote times at the beginning of human history. Kunlun's wisdom was inherited by [[Fuxi]], a king in the third millennium BCE and reputedly the originator of the ''Yijing'', and transmitted by him through [[Jiutian Xuannü]], the goddess of longevity incarnated on Earth, to the Three Ancestors of China: the ''[[Yan Emperor|Yandi]]'' ("Flame God"), the ''[[Yellow Emperor|Huangdi]]'' ("Yellow God") and ''[[Chiyou]]''.<ref name="Ancestors"/>

The latter, Chiyou, is regarded in Chinese folk religion as an enemy against whom the Flame and Yellow Emperors had to fight. One of the peculiarities of Weixinism is its rehabilitation of Chiyou. He is regarded as the ancestor of China's ethnic minorities and the healing of the wounds left by the conflicts and wars that accompanied Chinese history requires, according to the movement, that Chiyou be worshiped as equal in dignity to the Yan and Yellow Emperors.<ref name="Ancestors"/>

Guiguzi, according to Weixinist doctrines, was the legitimate heir of the Three Emperors. The awakened being Wang Chan Lao Chu incarnated in Guiguzi and is now mysteriously united with Grand Master Hun Yuan. The unbroken line connecting Kunlun to present-day Weixinism through the Three Ancestors and Guiguzi should guarantee that the movement embodies the most traditional Chinese "orthodoxy".<ref name="Ancestors"/> The Three Ancestors are said to be at the origins also of the Japanese, Vietnamese, and Korean earliest royal families, thus incorporating a good part of the Far East within the same lineage.<ref name="Liu"/>

The revelation of Guiguzi to Grand Master Hun Yuan and the latter's writings, also said to be inspired by Guiguzi, form a large corpus. It includes sixteen ''Apocalypse Scriptures'' and more than 18,000 volumes of speeches, writings, and comments of Grand Master Hun Yuan. Most of what he says is faithfully recorded by his followers and included in these collected works, known as ''Weixin Canon'', and continuously growing.<ref>Huang Xiu-Yu (2010). {{lang|zh|鬼谷文化在台灣弘揚法寶大集結}} (The Collection of Gui Gu Zi Dharma Propagation in Taiwan).
