I'm in the Teyvat running group

This request startled Yunxiu; her grandmother really had a girlish heart!

Chapter 233 The End of God (First Update on Sunday!)

Designing a character is not a difficult task, especially for a beautiful woman like Grandma who is hundreds of years old.

For example, in the famous bullet hell game Touhou Project, there is a purple-haired demon mage who is hundreds of years old. It is said that you can't mention her age, otherwise she will travel out of space and press your face onto the keyboard...

There are even occasional theories about lifespan, but that's not a big problem for Yunxiu.

He's been doing a massive giveaway of the Kiss of Time artifacts lately, giving one to everyone around him and receiving a lot of rewards in return.

Even Yoomiya and Ayaka Kamisato, when Kosai-no-miya brought them here before, Yunxiu gave them the item. Now only Tsukihime hasn't received it, but for Tsukihime, this kind of item isn't important.

As a "doll," she can live indefinitely as long as the so-called wear and tear mechanism is not triggered, but how could Yunxiu possibly let her encounter any "wear and tear"?

After thinking it over, Yunxiu decided to leave the matter to Ayaka Kamisato. After all, it would be difficult for other people to handle such matters and to properly deal with those people.

Grandma was naturally quite happy and quickly set up the shamanic spell for Yunxiu.

The two groups decided to split up for this final "war." Tsukihime and several others sought to revive the legendary powerhouse, while Yunxiu went to Fontaine alone to join Funina and Navelette in the final stage of "shattering the throne."

As for which legendary powerhouse to resurrect, a decision was reached after everyone discussed it.

First of all, the distance must be far enough that most people cannot react in time, and even the four ruling parties would find it difficult to appear in several locations at the same time.

Then, this powerful person's obsession must be deep enough to leave an indelible mark on this land, and finally, the time of death should ideally be close.

Although the resurrection of the Bronze Sparrow went relatively smoothly, the search for his soul took too long and was therefore very troublesome, which affected the resurrection process.

That is, the long search and the tearing of the timeline resulted in the appearance of a large number of monsters. Although the existence of monsters is not a big problem for the few people, the fewer the better.

Finally, there's the issue of energy that René mentioned. It's unlikely to resurrect a legendary-level powerhouse without the protection of several equally powerful individuals and a deity.

So in the end, they set their sights on Liyue and chose that immortal who was very famous in history, whose strength was not considered strong among the immortals, but who had many special abilities and magical artifacts.

The True Lord of the Sea and the Clouds!

This person's death was not long ago, and his strength and obsession were indeed strong enough that even now, there are still frequent memorial events in Liyue, and a group of old friends are still alive.

Finding powerful figures of the same level and divine protectors is not a problem, as Liyue has no shortage of such people. The only slightly troublesome issue is the uncertainty of the timing, but this is not a problem, because Narumi Suka's death is certainly not far off.

It must be within five or six hundred years, which is close enough compared to others.

After arranging a series of matters, Yunxiu went to Fontaine alone. In the Mo Mang Palace, she finally met Funina, who had prepared everything and was calmly drinking tea.

Compared to when he had just received the sword a few days ago, she was now quite "emotionally stable." Although the sadness in her eyes betrayed her thoughts, she was indeed very much like a "water goddess" who could display divine majesty. However, from today onwards, Fontaine no longer needed a water goddess.

Because the "throne of gods" will eventually be shattered!

"Yunxiu, what brings you here?" Funina said. "Today, it's time for the 'final moment.'"

Hmm? That's not right...

“Miss Funina, we made a promise. Back in the Abyss Palace, you mentioned that you would bring me to ‘witness’ these things.” Yunxiu asked tentatively, “Besides, I think we should have communicated about the existence of the ‘Current Human God Priestess’ back then.”

After a pause, Yunxiu continued, "Besides, wasn't that 'proverb' itself meant for this very moment?"

“Yes, you’re right.” Funina stood up and said, “Then let’s set off and solve the last problem.”

"Isn't Lady Vilette coming along?" Yunxiu looked around. "Shouldn't we set off together?"

"He's at the Opiclas Opera House, let's go together."

Yunxiu nodded and walked out of Momang Palace with Funina. They got up and flew towards Opiclay Opera House. Yunxiu's flying speed was naturally quite fast, but unexpectedly, Funina herself could not keep up with Yunxiu's speed.

She even searched for a place to rest on the sea until she finally found a reef that emerged from the water. After landing on it, she looked at Yunxiu and said, "Yunxiu, do you think... after Ergolia leaves, will the Fengdan people accept me?"

She spoke with a sorrowful expression: "After all, I am not the god who can lead them forward. I also suffer because of many things that happen. I do not have the gentleness and tolerance of Ergolia."

Yunxiu looked at Funina in front of her and smiled.

He didn't speak, but continued to watch her talk and pour out her heart until she looked increasingly tired and her voice grew softer and softer.

"Not going to say anything?" Yunxiu activated her weapon, which transformed into a sharp longsword in her hand and plunged it directly into Funina's chest!

No blood seeped out, and there was not even the slightest resistance. He spun his longsword forcefully and destroyed the body of 'Furina', watching her fall to the ground with a thud!

Her beautiful eyes did not dim at this moment; instead, they stared intently at Yunxiu and said, "Do you know what you are doing by attempting to assassinate the future Water God?"

"No wonder you've managed to fool so many people; it turns out you yourself believe you're Funina." Yunxiu sighed. "Let me guess, who is your 'creator'?"

The chest of the woman before him, Funina, revealed numerous components, with spherical energy swirling within them, resembling terrifying insect eggs. Yet, the energy itself created a sense of disharmony with the world, a disharmony that evoked the same feeling in everyone, but within himself, it presented a strange harmony.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a part of Nata. Ancient Nata was the kingdom of the dragons, and their technology was indeed capable of creating such advanced machinery."

"The energy core most likely comes from some mechanisms in the 'Ancient Sacred Mountain,' where you might even find some ancient dragons; their technological level is quite impressive."

"As for where it was manufactured, Nordkale and Nata are not far from Fontaine. It is likely that Nata obtained the parts, manufactured them in Nordkale, and then smuggled them over from Mount Munsos? So the first place it appeared was near Port Hailu."

"In terms of strength itself, it's more accurate to say that the ancient weapons of the Dragon Clan are indeed powerful enough to allow you to simulate the power of some of the familiar-level powerhouses. As long as you can fool the first wave, that's enough."

"If I'm not mistaken, the ultimate goal is most likely to steal her 'divinity.' That's why the initial objective was to lure everyone away and head straight for Agoria, hoping to steal her divine status after her death."

"But I didn't expect that Egolia's death had lasted for hundreds of years, and her divinity had long since melted into the primordial sea of ​​the womb. So she wanted to seize the power to shatter the divine throne, and that's why she wanted to trap me here first..."

"If I'm not mistaken, the next step is to transform into my appearance, find Funina and Navelette, and naturally participate in the final battle to seize the power of the Water Ruler, right?"

"A truly brilliant move. They've most likely already taken my place, transferring Frinina and Navilette to the Opicclay Opera House, and then naturally waiting for me at the Momen Palace..."

Lying below, with many parts already blown off her body, "Furina" revealed a rather venomous look in her eyes. As she looked at the talkative young man in front of her, her expression grew increasingly grim.

Only when she heard the last sentence did she speak with pain, "Neither Vilette nor Frynn could tell, so how could you..."

“You’re right about that. I really didn’t notice.” Yunxiu shook her head. “Your level is indeed quite good, and your answer was almost seamless.”

"That……"

“Such a major event, with enough suspicion, is enough to make me take the risk to do something.” Yunxiu said, “Even if you are really Funina, with her strength, I’d be lucky if my sword could just graze her skin. How could it really have any effect? ​​As for stabbing someone, I have no psychological pressure.”

"Besides, many of what you said is indeed incorrect. We don't have any agreement regarding witnessing in the Abyss Palace. I think it might not be a problem for you to collect information about the Teyvat continent, but the Abyss Palace is isolated from the world after all."

"And what I'm really curious about is, what do you think of the 'human-god-priestess'? There are no human-god-priestesses in this world."

After saying that, Yunxiu conjured another longsword from her hand and with a few back-and-forth strikes, she completely shredded 'Funingna' into pieces, even finishing off her energy core with a single blow, turning it into dust!

But Yunxiu did not leave the place after doing all this. Instead, she sat cross-legged on the spot, as if she was quietly waiting for something.

As he expected, just a few minutes after he sat down, the surrounding space seemed to be sealed off, and powerful magic arrays gradually began to envelop the sea area.

“Spatial sealing array, energy control array, elemental isolation array…” Yunxiu looked at the arrays that appeared around her one by one, a look of great surprise on her face: “To be able to combine all the arrays I developed into this, you really are a genius!”

"Even at a time like this, you can still laugh? Have you ever considered that this is your burial ground?" A figure emerged from the corner of the magic circle. He was shrouded in a black robe, making it impossible to see his face. His expression was twisted as he said, "You really are an unexpected existence. When exactly did you discover me?"

"No, I didn't find you. Actually, I always thought someone else was doing this." Yunxiu thought for a moment, then looked at the person in front of her and said:

"What I didn't expect was that it really wasn't that evil monk who did it. As for you, perhaps it's because Kong took your 'achievements'? No, no, no, perhaps it could be said to be your brother's achievement? Therefore, I probably know the reason why you are targeting me."

"Empty..." The figure gradually began to distort, but then he seemed to suddenly remember something: "Who I am has nothing to do with you? And where did you get this information from?"

“How dishonest of you, Amaranta Jarbrić…”

Chapter 234 The Cycle of Fate (Second update on Sunday!)

Yunxiu had actually been thinking about this issue while she was in Inazuma.

That is, why did such a large-scale invasion occur simultaneously in the Abyss Palace and the Dark Sea?

The existence of the giant beast "Bushgaro" was especially unexpected, as it was a terrifying being comparable to Gustott and was not something that would appear under normal circumstances.

In the end, it took several gods to defeat him!

The Rock God suppressed his abilities, the Wind God prepared a magic circle, and Iris provided some assistance. Fox Palace and Moon-Slicing Sun, who temporarily broke through to the God-level, were joined by a single strike from Thunder Movie.

It can be said that they had basically mobilized all the available resources at the time. If it weren't for Alice's information, it would have been very difficult to find the monster's weakness and kill it.

So, who orchestrated all of this?

Especially when they arrived in Fontainebleau, a strange figure was running around everywhere. Coupled with Kong's appearance and Yunxiu's meeting, he realized that this matter was very likely related to Yuanxia Palace. This was because Funina had obtained "umbilical blood," and this thing could be used to obtain "carving knife," which was something that could really change one's destiny.

Kong is still weaving the machine of fate. If fate is truly unchangeable, then the machine of fate should still be Calibel, the leader of the Abyss Order after the timeline has changed.

Therefore, Amaranta, the daughter of Clodar who entered the Dark Sea without any news, was added to Yunxiu's list of suspects.

Judging solely from her abilities and status, she certainly has the potential to accomplish everything.

The simplest way is to lure in the monsters from the Dark Sea to invade. Monsters are not without intelligence; in fact, many monsters are much more intelligent than humans.

Especially beings like Bushgalo, who are most likely unconscious clones of some truly ancient beings in the universe, would not be surprising if they connected with their original bodies after successfully devouring this world, in order to completely transform it.

What Yunxiu suspected most was the appearance of the fake Funina. According to the information he had, there were not many people who had this technology and could mimic it. For example, Rael was one of them, but the Moon Hunter Rael had already been killed.

Upon seeing the truth of the world, Yunxiu finally understood one thing: many things were destined to happen, and she had indeed altered many timelines, though she was unaware of it yet.

So here are the questions: Who was the priestess who ascended to the surface from the Abyss Palace back then? What was Serania worried about? Why didn't the true human-god priestess of the Abyss Palace dare to appear? Was the umbilical blood only used to summon the carving knife?

In particular, the relationship between Fontaine and Fukushita Palace.

In the original storyline, Fontaine and Abyss Palace were related. Not to mention the many similarities in the plot and story, even the design of many maps is similar.

For example, the map that appears in the story of Katarina even has a place that is almost exactly the same as the library of the White Night Kingdom. Moreover, the energy of Fontaine itself is also divided into two types, the Wild and the Light attributes, which are very similar to the Sun and Moon attributes of the Abyss Palace.

There's also the dragon lizard and water dragon prince Scylla, the series of events involving Scylla, Remus, and Agoria...

This makes one wonder if there is some hidden connection between the two.

However, this doubt came to a complete end when Yunxiu discovered that the inscription of Yuanxia Palace itself required the umbilical cord blood from the primordial fetal sea. From that point on, it was no longer just doubt, but complete certainty.

The relationship between Fontaine, the Primordial Fetal Sea, Remus, and the Abyss Palace is certainly not that simple.

Naturally, this person who went into the Dark Sea and never returned, yet managed to create a fake Funina, and even kept searching for someone to cause trouble for Yunxiu, was included in Yunxiu's list.

As for who it was, Yunxiu didn't actually have any idea at the time. It was only recently, after carefully reviewing her experiences, that Yunxiu focused her attention on this person—if Kalibel had the ability to become the weaver of fate, then there was no reason for his sister to be just an ordinary person.

Especially when entering the dark outer sea.

Although this is just speculation, sometimes speculation is enough.

Sure enough, the figure opposite her stiffened, lifted her hood, and revealed a rather beautiful face. She had the typical characteristics of the Kanria royal bloodline, namely star-like eyes and long black hair.

A closer look reveals that she does indeed look very similar to Calibel, but possesses a completely different kind of beauty.

With a few strands of hair still tinged with the taint of the abyss, yet clearly unaffected by its image, Amaranta's beauty truly surpassed Yunxiu's expectations.

Or rather, if it weren't for their differing stances, he really would be Yunxiu's type.
