I'm in the Teyvat running group

But the price was the sacrifice of Fucarus.

Fucarus actually traded his divine status for the collapse of the divine throne, which also led the story's ending in a different direction.

Egolia spent hundreds of years merging herself into the primordial sea of ​​consciousness to condense this divine sword. Her goal was to destroy the divine throne, but the problem is that this did indeed reverse her fate.

“The existence of the Divine Throne is essentially a process of sorting out and ruling the world order, so its collapse is only a matter of time,” Navelette said. “Unless it is completely corrupted by other orders, the dragons will definitely be reborn under those orders, and the Divine Throne system is actually parasitic on the seven dragons.”

Yunxiu nodded. This was indeed one of the ways Fanes ruled the world.

That is, using the remains of the Third Descendant, they seized a portion of the ancient dragon's power and crafted the Heart of God and the Throne of God. But the ancient dragons are immortal, and dragons will always be reborn.

Each rebirth actually threatens the order of the Seven Gods themselves, so the Heart of God, besides being the monitor of the Great King of Law, is also a ballast stone that can ensure the existence of order to a certain extent.

Why must it be held by seven powerful gods? Do they really need the Heart of God? The answer is actually not that much, but once the seven gods hold it, they become part of the order, and they must consider the significance of maintaining that order.

Of course, if the Seven Gods themselves don't want to maintain order, or if they simply kill or subdue the dragon, that's another matter.

For example, the Red King Ahmar made a deal with Apep, bringing Apep under his command among a group of powerful warriors. However, Apep was naturally unwilling to coexist with this group of beings who were mostly at the peak of the legendary level, so he did not listen to the Red King.

“We still need to go to the very core of the Primordial Sea of ​​Conception to shatter the Divine Throne.” Funina took out the sword and looked at the two of them, saying, “Let’s go to the Primordial Sea of ​​Conception first.”

"Wait...where is the umbilical cord blood?" Yunxiu suddenly asked, "In the very core of the primordial womb, won't there be a problem with that?"

“I have already stored the umbilical cord blood elsewhere,” Funina said. “The very core of the primordial fetal sea is said to be able to dissolve everything, and only those who are protected can enter safely.”

"Under what protection?"

“It’s a Rank. A Rank is the only being in the Primordial Sea of ​​Emptiness that can be guaranteed not to dissolve. Therefore, apart from the one who controls the power of 'water,' only those who rule or even higher can enter,” Navelette said. “If I’m not mistaken, you must be the legendary ‘Descendant.’”

That Villette actually thought of it...

This is not surprising, though. As one of the seven dragons on this planet, his power and level are beyond what many people can imagine.

The three flew towards the sea of ​​Fontainebleau, rushing towards the seabed until they finally reached the deepest part of the ocean. There, they saw a wisp of light with a hint of purple. Funinna nodded, placed the sword horizontally below, and gently cut a slit. The three of them immediately flew inside.

However, the moment they flew in, the three of them separated and entered a strange space, where they saw a completely different scene.

Navelette witnessed the terrifying story of the Nibelungen's war against the seven dragons and the four shadows, the "War of the Dead," in which all the Dragon Kings of the previous generation fought against the four shadows and the seven dragons.

Moreover, in the War of the Burial Fire, there was not only a great battle between the First and Second Descendants, but also an existence from another world who descended into the boy's body, the legendary "Third Descendant"!

The Third Descendant and several angels are waging war on the ground. The war between angels, dragons, and the Four Shadows is extremely fierce. The terrifying power has destroyed many kingdoms and cracks have appeared all over the world.

Navelette also saw the presence of the first water dragon, who was the "Heart of the Primal Ocean," possessing the power of the entire Primal Ocean and unleashing terrifying waves that nearly covered the entire Teyvat water system.

Ultimately, it was Nabelius, the ruler of life, who created a new "Primordial Heart of the Sea" to replace the existence of the "Water Dragon," which is why the Water Dragon King was finally destroyed.

This peculiar ability is actually common in war. Often, if you want to eliminate a terrifying being, the first thing you need to do is to take its place in terms of status. This includes the power you control and its "name".

This is the same method Yunxiu used to destroy Bushgalo.

In the end, the body of the Third Adventist was voluntarily transformed into the seven hearts of the gods and the existing order. Fanes then used the Heavenly Spikes to suppress the cracks in the world, and Teyvat was able to move forward in a patched-up manner.

The dragons' March was also destroyed, and the goddesses of March all perished. In particular, after the moon was shattered, the entire terrain of Teyvat changed completely, an event that filled everyone with fear and helplessness.

Next came the Demon God War, which lasted for a full thousand years. The war devastated many places, and the war of the Seven Gods almost wiped out all the existing Demon Gods and powerful beings in Teyvat. It was not until the establishment of the Seven Kingdoms that Teyvat enjoyed a period of peace.

But this peace was short-lived. Just a thousand years later, a dynasty, the "Red Moon Dynasty" of Kanria, was born beneath the earth, and the godless kingdom began to race wildly down its own path.

Next up is the Battle of Kanria from five hundred years ago, the Battle of Kanria altered by Yunxiu.

The initial offensive of the war was extremely fierce, and the battlefield of the Seven Gods was almost destroyed. However, in the end, one person intervened and sealed off the entire territory and passages of Kanria. Although this created an enormous dead zone in Sumeru, the calamity did not spread to other countries on the earth.

Because it did not spread, the calamities encountered by each country were terrifying but still within an acceptable range. The calamities in most countries were quelled, with only some strong individuals sacrificing their lives.

As Navelette looked at these past events, she entered a rather peculiar state.

He astutely noticed that at every crucial juncture in time, there seemed to be the presence of that "Descendant"!

Seven thousand years ago, in the glorious days of Hyperion, the Descendant appeared in a corner of the Golden City, presided over a sacrificial ceremony, and obtained four artifacts and the blessing of a goddess from beyond the world.

Six thousand years ago, during the Year of Burial Fire, that descendant seemed to be rebelling against the entire world against the angel race. In the end, out of pity for the world itself, he disintegrated and merged into the world with the powerful force of the laws, leaving his body to the principles of heaven to create the system of the Heart of God.

Five thousand years ago, the Descendant was born in the form of a dragon prince. After wandering in this world for hundreds of years, he left a bloodline with a dragon girl and then left without a trace.

Four thousand years ago, he appeared in the valley of Liyue and met the Geo Archon who had already established a settlement. Together, they found Gui Zhong, Maxius, and other immortals, and established a new cultivation method. The existence of "immortals" gradually began to appear in Liyue.

This being did not appear between three thousand and one thousand years ago. It was only a thousand years ago that he suddenly appeared in the kingdom of Kanria. Five hundred years later, he transformed into a stream of light and sealed the breach in Kanria.

"What has that 'Descendant' been doing in this world...?" Navelette wondered. "If it was to save this world, why so many times? And how did he manage to keep 'being born' in this world?"

The scene progresses step by step until finally, the timeline is locked in Liyue nineteen years ago. An infant disappears in its mother's arms, only to return three days later, its entire body in a state of collapse.

Then, the screen went black, and that's when he started growing up normally.

“It was another being of extremely high status who concealed the most crucial part of his growth…” Navelette pondered, “The reason why the previous story could be seen was that Teyvat at that time was not complete and was not deliberately concealed.”

If Yunxiu could also see this scene, then he would know what was being covered up: the part where the Emperor intervened to save him. But unfortunately, even Yunxiu doesn't know what exactly happened back then.

The Emperor is also very tight-lipped about this matter, and has not told him any information so far.

The only thing Yunxiu knew was that when the Emperor gave him the Talisman of No Taboos, he sealed off the space at that time before revealing that it was he who had saved Yunxiu.

Everyone else only knew that the Emperor had taken action, but they didn't know exactly what he had done.

Villette carefully examined all the information, finally focusing her gaze on the descendant from five thousand years ago. He had left behind a bloodline with a dragon girl and then disappeared without a trace.

“If I’m not mistaken, this bloodline still exists in this world, but I don’t sense it at all; it’s as if it’s been sealed away…” Navelette murmured. “If I could contact this bloodline, it seems like many mysteries could be resolved…”

Vilett was right; this bloodline does indeed still exist in the world. It is that dragon girl from the Abyss Shrine, an existence that cannot leave the shrine, the true "Human God Priestess" Serania! Under the protection of the Thunder Dragon King, she does exist in a fairly safe place, and no one can trace her back to her.

Strictly speaking, only a handful of people knew of her existence, and even Yunxiu only vaguely knew who she was, without further confirmation. Yunxiu only found out after obtaining the information she left behind.

Navelette has realized this. Serania is likely the only one who currently possesses all the information, can truly connect the events of the entire ancient era, and can truly know the rise and fall of the dragon race.

However, even though this being controlled all the waters of the world and could command almost all low-level dragons, he was still puzzled and did not know where this person ultimately existed.

On the other side, Yunxiu, located in the primordial womb, sees a completely different scene.

Chapter 237 The Afterimage of the Demon God War (Second Update on Monday!)

What Yunxiu saw was a completely different scene from that of Navelette, and it even explained many of his questions.

Just as he suspected, Kanria was indeed a nation established in the future, but it had been projected into the past on the timeline.

Just like the establishment of the Divine Cherry Tree, it was actually established 500 years after the Battle of Kanria, but it appeared in Inazuma thousands of years ago and has been taken care of by the sage foxes of Narukami Shrine ever since.

This strange approach is also a characteristic of the bizarre world of Teyvat.

This method has actually happened many times in history.

The birth of many things is actually like this: the future is projected onto the past. In other words, the past, present, and future actually exist simultaneously for Teyvat.

For example, the birth of "Sky Moon" is a case in point. The true "Sky Moon Goddess," Columbia Hipper Serenia, was actually born much later than most people realize, even five hundred years later, almost at the same time as the destruction of Teyvat.

However, this goddess of the empty moon can travel through timelines, and even guided the people of Hyperion thousands of years ago to flee directly to Nordcale, where the last branch even established the Frostmoon Children.

Yunxiu himself solved the thing that had puzzled him the most, but which had also pointed him in the right direction.

So, what exactly was the origin of the Liyue Demon God War?

In theory, this war between demons and gods wasn't actually that terrifying, at least not in other countries of Teyvat. Except for Nata, which never experienced a war between demons and gods, most countries' wars were only so-so. Even the supposedly devastating war of Sumeru ultimately fell far short of the level of Liyue.

At least the birth of the Sumeru Desert and many other things are actually mainly due to the Heavenly Nails.

However, the war in Liyue ultimately resulted in a cataclysmic conflict, making it one of the most devastating wars between demons and gods in the truest sense.

The reason is actually not complicated: the Demon God War in Liyue was indeed fought by humans themselves. In Liyue, the initial leaders of the Demon God War were humans, not the Emperor!

Humans cultivated themselves into immortals and began to sweep away and defeat all kinds of demons. One by one, immortals began to establish settlements on the surface of Liyue. Finally, a terrifying being attacked, and the immortals gathered together with the Emperor to lead humanity to conquer the land of Liyue.

From the very beginning, Liyue has been a place ruled by "human beings," and it has been fighting against the heavens and the earth, defeating demons and establishing a kingdom.

At its earliest, the Emperor was merely the 'celestial leader' of one of the many settlements in Liyue. There were many such settlements, but the Emperor's was relatively large and was one of the most powerful forces at the time.

After the forces of the Emperor and Gui Zhong merged and established the "Gui Li Ji", the two signed a contract with the demon god of Shenyu Valley. With the presence of Maxius, they gradually began to suppress the surrounding areas and eventually established Liyue Harbor.

If other nations, without the Demon God War, might have had to submit to the Demon Gods and various powerful beings for survival, then the people of Liyue truly earned this land through their own hard work.

Of course, this resulted in an exceptionally fierce war between the demons in Liyue. The war lasted for a full thousand years, during which more than two hundred human legends perished, and tens of millions of soldiers of the Thousand Rock Army were killed or wounded!

The Liyue that was established under these circumstances indeed solved all the problems that other countries had to solve little by little later, and was also able to calmly accept the retirement of the emperor who had led Liyue for thousands of years.

The bloodline of war and the spirit of fighting against nature is engraved in the blood of every Liyue person.

However, Yunxiu unexpectedly discovered something: during the Demon God War, there was indeed no trace of herself or any other "Descendants." She didn't know if they were concealed or if they simply didn't participate. Throughout the Demon God War and its aftermath, the main force was fighting a fierce battle within Teyvat.

Even the witches he knew well did not appear.

This made Yunxiu begin to suspect that the events surrounding the witches' travels through the universe, especially witch A Alice and witch O Octavia, might have originated around this time.

The existence of the Demon God War needs to be considered from another perspective. Is it also a war to purge the invaders and the disharmonious elements within the world? Although it cannot be determined for sure, Yunxiu believes there is a high probability of it.

However, what Yunxiu least expected was that the outbreak point of the Demon God War was actually Chenyu Valley!

Above Shenyu Valley lies Sky Island. It's not surprising that this place was the starting point of the Demon God War. However, the fact that the war spread from here and became increasingly terrifying is another matter entirely.

Moreover... judging from the Demon God War that broke out in Shenyu Valley and the subsequent participation of the Dragon King Ruoduo, the dragon race of Liyue actually participated in the war. But why is it that now all the dragons have only degenerated to the level of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard at most?

The Water Dragon Prince Scylla, the Fire Dragon Prince Kukulkan, and even the Thunder Dragon King all have Thunder Birds as their familiars. How could Roda's familiars be so weak? That doesn't make sense.

Moreover, the Naga King Ratna himself possesses unparalleled knowledge and control over "jade" and "stone" throughout Teyvat.

Is there a connection between the Demon God War that broke out in Shenyu Valley and how it later became one of the two major mining areas in Liyue, along with the Laminarge Abyss?

This made Yunxiu feel that she should go to Chenyu Valley to see what had happened.

Moreover, the secrets hidden within Shenyu Valley itself are enough to make him want to explore further.

The demon gods and those who remained in Shenyu Valley should at least know some information.

The Night Watchers War and the events surrounding the resurrection in Nata should be resolved in a month or two. After that, we can return to Liyue and explore the Valley of the Fallen.

After reading this information, he opened his eyes and saw that Villette next to him had also opened her eyes. The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with both wariness and curiosity.

“Which ‘Descendant’ are you? I think you’re probably not just the Fifth Descendant,” Navelette said. “I mean no harm. I just want to know one thing: if this world were to be on the verge of destruction again, what would you do…”

“I have been saving this world from the brink of collapse.” Yunxiu looked at Vilette, condensed a spatial magic orb in her hand, and slowly levitated it. “As you can see, my control over spatial magic has reached the point where I can travel through the universe like those legendary witches. I can escape.”

Navelette nodded without speaking. After a long pause, he added, "I believe everything you've done, but your greatest enemy is actually that being."

“In ancient legends, the Nibelungs imprisoned the moon and transformed it into a weapon of war, so the Heavenly Phanes struck in anger and shattered the moon into pieces.” Navelette told a long-forgotten story, which surprised Yunxiu. Looking at Yunxiu’s eyes, he continued, “But, it’s not that simple.”

"You mean... this is an excuse that Fanes found?" Yunxiu asked doubtfully. "But as far as I know, dragons do have the ability to destroy the world, or rather, to reshape it."

Yunxiu had played Genshin Impact, so she naturally knew that dragons did indeed have the ability to destroy the world, and they didn't even need many dragons, just one would suffice.
