Chapter 566

~6 min read 1,170 words

Kiana, Mei, and Bronya fought Kevin, transcending Finality.

Kevin realized his dream and fulfilled his promise.

No matter the cost, humanity would definitely defeat the Honkai.

Mei transformed into the Herrscher of Origin, and Bronya became the Herrscher of Truth.

And Kiana...

Became the Finality fighting for humanity!

From then on, the screen dissipated.

Himeko was already sobbing uncontrollably, and along with Yae Miko and Ganyu, they had hidden away to quietly wipe their faces.

The Honkai world is a beautiful story full of tragedy.

This beauty was realized by those shining heroes who sacrificed their lives.

Jiang Yan did not interrupt Himeko; she needed to vent right now.

Himeko knelt on the ground, tears sliding down one by one, but her smile was more relieved than ever before.

"Kiana, Mei, Bronya..."

"You have all grown up, I have always believed..."

"You will surpass everyone... and become the world's final heroes!"

If she could, Himeko would have loved to appear by Kiana's side at every critical moment.

And at that final moment, stand before her and say one thing to her.

She really loved Kiana...

After an unknown amount of time, Himeko looked up, wiped her already red and swollen eyes, and stared fixedly at Jiang Yan.

The latter said slowly:

"It's a very tragic, yet perfect story, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

Himeko smiled with relief.

"That is why I was willing to give my life to protect them."

No one could better understand the joy of seeing Kiana and the others transcend Finality than Himeko.

Her own students had become heroes she had to look up to.

Himeko died without regrets.

Jiang Yan smiled and said softly:

"You've worked hard."

Himeko shook her head, regained some composure, and looked at Jiang Yan.

"Thank you, Sect Master, for letting me see the future of that world; even if I can't go back, I am already satisfied."

"Kiana and the others have already grown up and no longer need me."

Speaking of this, Himeko felt no loss; she wished everyone knew that Kiana and the others were her students.

"If... I let you return to the Honkai world?"

Suddenly, Jiang Yan asked softly, and Himeko was stunned, then looked at Jiang Yan with surprise.

"Sect Master, are you serious?!"

If she could go back...

With her current strength, transcending Finality might be difficult.

But she could also ensure Kiana and the others wouldn't have to walk such a difficult path.

There could be many fewer tragedies in the world!

Moreover, she believed in Kiana and the others; with their talent, they were absolutely top-tier geniuses for cultivation.

Teyvat could produce divine bodies, why couldn't the Honkai world?

The technological side is also composed of people!

As long as Kiana and the others cultivate, is the Honkai still a problem?

The ancestor of the Honkai was already stunned by the Shushan Heavenly Dao.

If she could bring Kiana and the others back to Shushan to cultivate, the Honkai could definitely be solved quickly!

Thinking of this, Himeko's gaze became increasingly fiery.

Originally, she had given up, only wanting to cultivate until the Refining Qi into Spirit stage to find a way back to the Honkai world.

But now...

Being able to go back early is definitely better!

"Sect Master!"

Himeko pursed her lips, looking at Jiang Yan excitedly.

"Can I return to the Honkai world?"

"That is exactly what I am thinking."

Jiang Yan nodded gently, not hiding it from Himeko, and said softly:

"Originally, I didn't have much of a sense of urgency; rooted in Teyvat, with the mysterious Teyvat, Shushan could slowly revive."

"A hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years..."

"Shushan has no shortage of time."

"But now, that's no longer possible."

Jiang Yan sighed and said gloomily:

"The Evil Sword Immortal has emerged, and his first target for revenge will definitely be Shushan; although as long as his consciousness is suppressed, a mere late-stage Refining Void and Combining Dao fusion of two consciousnesses is not a big problem for me."

"But the Evil Sword Immortal is not alone."

"Demons gather at the Heavenly Demon Ridge, ravaging the cultivation world."

"I alone cannot stop the entire Heavenly Demon Ridge."

"The Evil Sword Immortal will find Shushan sooner or later; I don't know how long it will take, but for cultivators, time is always as fleeting as a white horse passing a gap."

"Shushan needs to form combat power capable of resisting the Heavenly Demon Ridge faster, and needs to revive at a faster speed."

"Relying on Teyvat alone... perhaps Teyvat has many geniuses, and being rooted in the mysterious side is more suitable for cultivation."

"But the Teyvat world is too small; if we hollow out Teyvat, how many geniuses can we gather?"

Jiang Yan smiled bitterly and slowly raised his hand.

Immediately, it attracted the attention of Yae Miko and the others.

On that fair, jade-like wrist, a trace of black-red demonic energy lingered, condensing into a strange rune that was soul-stirring.

"Sect Master, this is..."

Ganyu looked at Jiang Yan nervously, and the latter sighed.

"Heavenly Demon Finger Confusion Seal..."

"In the previous battle, although I successfully suppressed the Evil Sword Immortal's consciousness back into the Demon Locking Tower with the Samadhi True Fire and the An Tudi God Mantra."

"But in a moment of carelessness, I was also branded with the Heavenly Demon Finger Confusion Seal by the opponent."

Ganyu immediately became anxious and worried:

"Sect Master, will there be any trouble? I'll call..."

She wanted to say call Baizhu and the others over, but then she thought, if Jiang Yan, the strongest in Shushan, couldn't solve it, what could Baizhu and the others do?

Suddenly, Ganyu felt a bit sad.

Right now, none of them could help Jiang Yan...

"The Heavenly Demon Finger Confusion Seal is not a killing or curse; it is an evil technique that is like a maggot on a tarsal bone."

"Once branded, it cannot be removed; unless the caster dies, it cannot be resolved for life; of course, if I become an immortal, I can solve it."

"The effect of the Heavenly Demon Finger Confusion Seal is very simple, but it is also the most troublesome; the Heavenly Demon Finger Confusion Seal is also known as the Ten Thousand Mile Revenge Technique."

"Once I am afflicted with this technique, the Evil Sword Immortal will inevitably notice; although separated by immeasurable worlds, for a cultivator of Refining Void and Combining Dao, crossing worlds is as simple as drinking water."

"The rest is just a matter of time."

"According to my deduction, the Evil Sword Immortal must already know that Shushan still exists, and that I still exist; he will definitely come for revenge to take back the three consciousnesses."

"Fastest in a hundred years, slowest in several thousand years, he will definitely come."

"I do have a way to escape, and a way to protect myself."

"The Samadhi True Fire is enough to make the Evil Sword Immortal retreat three feet."
