Chapter 531

~6 min read 1,167 words

Lumine held her sword high, and thunder condensed into a sword that pierced heaven and earth. Against the backdrop of the thunder, everyone saw the swaying Lumine and her pale face.

It seemed she couldn't fully master this move either.

Even if it was a simplified version of the Divine Sword Art of Thunder, it was still a simplified immortal technique.

In a sense, it was even more terrifying than a Heaven-tier technique.

A technique of this level was not something Lumine could use casually.

With her current strength, even if she went all out, she could probably only unleash one percent of the power of the simplified Divine Sword Art of Thunder after using this move.

But her True Essence would be instantly drained.

Yet, as a trump card, this was already enough.

That thunder god sword, as if it were about to re-divide the earth, fire, wind, and water, carried the will to destroy everything and was about to destroy everything here.

The Shogun let go of her naginata in despair, her gaze filled with a sense of release.

It was not that she didn't want to resist, but...

In a fleeting instant, all the results she saw and judged pointed to only one point.

Certain death.

This was a sword she could not resist and could not understand.

It was not power that humans or gods should master.

Once the move was unleashed, the final result was already destined in the process.

Now, the Shogun finally believed that immortal cultivation was something that could change Eternity.

Relying on immortal cultivation, Inazuma would also move toward a greater Eternity.

In the last moment of her life, being able to witness a glorious future for Inazuma was enough.

All of this did not violate the will to pursue Eternity that Ei had set for her back then, and Ei, under this power, also saw the Eternity that truly belonged to Inazuma.

Just as she said...

This time, she would choose to look forward.

The naginata fell to the ground, and the Shogun opened her arms, preparing to welcome her glorious curtain call.

Falling under such a sword art that exceeded imagination was her honor.

Death was also a kind of Eternity.

And now, she was going to pursue her own Eternity.

"Shogun!"

Ei shouted, gritted her teeth, and ultimately couldn't help but make a move.

She instantly turned into thunder light and blocked in front of the Shogun.

A strike that condensed all her life's understanding of sword art and divine will, a sword art pushed to the extreme, blasted toward the thunder god sword.

This thing could not be dodged.

One could only take it head-on.

But how could one withstand it?

Even at this critical juncture, Ei realized a deeper realm of the Musou no Hitotachi, but it was still not enough to counter this ability that transcended the level of sword art.

"Ei! Hurry and dodge! You can't block it!"

Paimon shouted anxiously.

Too bold!

This was the Divine Sword Art of Thunder; even if it wasn't the original version, it wouldn't be weak.

Lumine, with her dignified Glazed Sword Heart Divine Body, had been drained of all her strength and essence by this strike.

This move was something even Lumine couldn't control.

She had heard Zhongli and the others say that when Jiang Yan himself unleashed the Divine Sword Art of Thunder,

if he hadn't controlled the power himself, the entire Teyvat would have shattered before the Divine Sword Art of Thunder even descended.

The meaning of immortal law is to transcend humanity.

But Ei did not waver in the slightest, and with a sword strike of her full strength, she rushed toward the thunder god sword.

"You..."

"Stop talking nonsense! I promised myself!"

Ei gritted her teeth as she watched the sword energy crack inch by inch, not even gaining a sliver of time.

"New changes are destined to face more loss, but if I can, I will do my best to avoid any loss!"

"You too!"

"Shogun, you are my friend!"

The Shogun's pupils shrank, and she stared blankly at Ei.

The distant area of this space had collapsed into a black hole, gradually spreading toward this side.

"Don't just stand there! Hurry and help!"

Ei urged, and the Shogun immediately picked up her naginata and blasted the thunder god sword with an equally brilliant strike.

"It's useless!"

Paimon said somewhat urgently:

"This is the will of heaven and earth. You are defying heaven and earth by doing this now; you are certain to die!"

Two massive sword energies converged together.

Ei thought in a daze of the folk rumors...

There are always creatures on the ground who dare to face the light of thunder.

That was originally a description of the power of her Musou no Hitotachi, but now...

it had become what she was doing herself.

The Musou no Hitotachi was just her own will, but the Divine Sword Art of Thunder...

was the true will of the world.

But this will of the world...

Ei would not accept it!

But reality was cruel after all. Even if Ei and the Shogun joined forces, they had already unleashed the strongest power of their lives.

But facing the Divine Sword Art of Thunder, it had no effect, merely weakening the pressure of the opponent slightly.

However, the subsequent thunder sword energy could still easily obliterate them.

Human will is infinite, but...

immortal cultivators transcend the infinite.

"This is the end."

The Shogun smiled with relief, looking at the thunder close at hand. Perhaps she had never thought that she, a Raiden Shogun puppet created by Ei, would one day die under thunder.

It could be considered dying in the right place.

Using her last bit of strength, she knocked Ei away with a slash.

"Shogun!"

Ei looked at the Shogun under the thunder light in despair, and the latter closed her eyes.

Before dying, she could be considered to have resisted this irresistible will.

In this instant, it could also be considered Eternity.

But suddenly, Musou Isshin erupted with unprecedented light, a light so gentle it could smooth out the ripples in everyone's hearts.

"Help me... I... my lord!"

A whisper extremely familiar to Ei sounded in her ear. The next moment, the power belonging to time circulated around.

Time was like a silk thread, connecting the thunder god sword, but just like that, it was not enough to resolve this move.

The next moment, the power of time erupted, invisible and colorless, and a pitch-black crack appeared in front of the Shogun.

The thunder god sword descended and was completely sucked into this crack.

The Shogun looked herself over blankly and found that she was safe and sound.

"I... didn't die?"

As soon as the words fell, the Primordial Jade Cutter coiled around Lumine's waist instantly unsheathed.

An aura sharper than ever before spread in all directions.

In just an instant, this space was filled with dense cracks.
