Chapter 406

Everyone looked at him, and he slowly said: "There is an ominous power in the True King's body. After the True King fell, this power swallowed the True King's flesh and bones, and nothing would be left wherever it went... This power is extremely harmful to everything. What Teyvat is facing now is perhaps that ominous!"

Hearing this, Focalors' expression also became serious, and she turned her head to look at Gu Chen.

From Neuvillette's words, it can be known that such power existed before the Ancient Ancestor fell, and it might even be the culprit that caused the Ancient Ancestor to fall!

Even the Ancient Ancestor fell under the ominous power. As a reincarnation, Gu Chen would probably find it difficult to deal with such power, right?

While pondering, Lumine spoke: "So, Teyvat is about to be swallowed by ominous power?"

"Yeah, that's about it!" Paimon nodded.

Gu Chen was thoughtful and hadn't spoken.

Neuvillette looked at Paimon and asked: "I have a question that needs your answer."

Paimon scratched her head, then said: "Do you want to ask why Phanes seized the authority of the Dragon Sovereigns?"

Neuvillette didn't speak, just nodded with a dark face.

Paimon replied: "The memory says that when Phanes was outside the sky, k hadn't been born yet, but k had already observed that there was ominous power on the other side of the distant starry sky approaching Teyvat... They seem to possess wisdom, swallowing everything along the way. The final goal is unknown, but Teyvat is the other party's only way... In order to protect this planet with many living beings and huge potential, Phanes decided to be born here..."

"k communicated with the Ancient Dragons, and those Ancient Dragons had blind worship for Father God, they didn't listen to Phanes at all... Helpless, Phanes could only defeat k, and then wrap this planet with his own eggshell, and then try to take this planet to avoid the ominous, leaving the sparks of Father God's descendants."

"Phanes prepared everything, but Nibelung returned from outside the sky, carrying ominous power and descended... After the war, Phanes had been eroded. Although that ominous power was very weak, it also made k near death, becoming powerless..."

"Now the starry sky outside the eggshell has become completely silent..."

Neuvillette's pupils shrank slightly: "You mean, the world outside the false sky has already been swallowed by the ominous?"

"Yes." Paimon nodded.

Neuvillette was extremely horrified and gasped.

He could probably understand why Phanes did this.

If the Ancient Dragons had been able to listen to advice, perhaps Teyvat would not be facing the current scene.

But Neuvillette couldn't blame k, because he was the same, having blind worship for the Primordial True King, and even if he knew about this, he wouldn't make any changes.

Sighing, Neuvillette said bluntly: "I have no way."

Focalors looked at Paimon and asked: "Since you are by the Traveler's side, what is your purpose?"

Paimon answered honestly: "The Sustainer is dying, the Creator has not yet arrived... but the world will not burn again, because—Lumine, will ascend to the divine throne."

Neuvillette and Focalors were stunned, and even Lumine was very surprised.

Paimon's words were like a prophecy, as if they had a sense of fate.

The first half had been confirmed by Paimon; the Sustainer was indeed dying.

The Creator has not yet arrived... Focalors and Neuvillette both looked at the calm Gu Chen.

If you want to say who is the creator of everything, then it must be Gu Chen's past life—the Primordial True King!

Can this sentence be understood as the Primordial True King has not arrived... or rather, the reincarnation has not yet possessed that kind of power?!

As for the last part...

Neuvillette looked at Lumine and said somewhat surprisingly: "I didn't expect you to be the chosen successor."

Lumine smiled bitterly and said: "Even I didn't know about it at all."

Focalors sighed: "No wonder you have so many things wherever you go... So you are like the protagonist in a light novel, playing the savior and walking on the path of growth?"

Lumine was helpless and said somewhat desperately: "Phanes was eroded after being stained by the ominous, how could I be as powerful as k? Savior or something... I'm not good enough, right?"

Gu Chen, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly asked: "Since the Traveler was chosen as the successor, then the previous plan should be ready to be implemented?"

"Yes!"

Paimon nodded. She had recovered a bit. Although she was afraid, her speech was much smoother.

"Lumine touching the Statue of the Seven will gain elemental power. In fact, it's not that she gained elemental power, but she is accepting the authority of the elements... After she leaves her own precipitation in this world, she will be pushed to the divine throne by many authorities like stars surrounding the moon. At that time, she will possess power beyond the gods. Then, she only needs to continue Phanes' plan to take Teyvat off its original track and avoid the ominous that is about to rush over!"

"Not just elemental power, but the authority of the elements?"

Lumine whispered, raised her palm, and five elemental powers of wind, rock, thunder, grass, and water flowed in her palm.

"What's the success rate?" Gu Chen asked.

Paimon shook her head: "I don't know."

"It doesn't look high." Neuvillette sighed.

"I don't know what the situation is outside... We'd better contact all the forces we can contact and work together. The success rate should be higher, right?" Lumine said with worry.

Gu Chen said faintly: "Just now she said, the ominous has wisdom, it won't watch the food that is about to reach its mouth fly away."

Lumine was dumbfounded. After being discouraged, she said desperately: "Then what should we do? Big boss, you are also a reincarnation, you can't hold it at all, so we can only be swallowed?"

Gu Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip, his expression comfortable, and said slowly: "Don't be so pessimistic. The existence that can give the Traveler a fate may not be able to see the whole picture of things."

Between the slow and steady words, Gu Chen had already stood up, with his hands behind his back, looking up at the direction outside the sky, his expression plain.

"Those who have not reached my realm see the tip of the iceberg and think it is the whole picture."

"Those who have reached my realm see me as a mayfly seeing the blue sky."

"Fate is fickle and plays with people. This fate is not good, just change it."

[Kaeya]: Holy crap, domineering!

[Azhdaha]: Translate, translate, what is called awesome!

[Shikanoin Heizou]: Translated, it means you haven't reached my realm, you saw the tip of my iceberg and thought it was all of me! But after you reach my realm, you will see the true power I possess! In short: before you reach my realm, you only know I'm awesome, but after you reach my realm, you know exactly how awesome I am!

[Venti]: Holy crap? Teyvat has such an awesome existence? (Scratching head)

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Never seen such a terrifying existence...

[Gu Chen]: G! You saw it today! (Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli? Dragon King crooked mouth)

[Tartaglia]: Good, good, good, breaking my cognition of strength again and again, right? Is that sentence "fate is not good, just change it" a bit too exaggerated?! (Paimon? Surprised)

[Nilou]: Hmph hmph! Rewriting fate seems very exaggerated, but as long as the person who takes action is Mr. Gu Chen, it seems very reasonable! Subconsciously, it tells me he has such ability!

[Collei]: (Sunglasses) Rewriting the fate of a single life is simple, rewriting the fate of a world... for Mr. Gu Chen, it's easy! (Cool)

[Osial]: Now you know the gold content of my Brother Gu's strength, right? (Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli? Dragon King crooked mouth)

[Dvalin]: Group of frogs at the bottom of the well bubbling.. 0

[Lyney]: Group... bubbling in the sewer, look at the frog first and then look at the sky. (Covering face)

[Cyno]: The group's average level has increased again.

[Tighnari]: The suddenly raised group average level line is just because of Mr. Gu Chen. (Tighnari? Scared)

"What does it mean?"

Lumine's eyes carried clear stupidity.

Neuvillette had a bottom line in his heart and said lightly: "It means that the existence that gave you your fate cannot understand the greatness of the 'Creator' at all."

Lumine understood a little.

The Sustainer is dying, the Creator... has long since awakened!

"Can it work?"

Focalors looked at Gu Chen with worry: "That is the ominous that can entangle the Ancient Ancestor, you are now..."

Before she could finish, Gu Chen shook his head and said: "Don't worry about me, since the words can be spoken, I have enough certainty."

Focalors nodded gently and didn't speak again.

"Then, then when will it start?" Paimon asked.

Seeing Paimon scared to death, Gu Chen smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? I don't eat people, besides... if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up."

"That's true."

Paimon reacted and nodded, feeling much more relaxed with her heart back in her stomach.

Gu Chen said: "Let's solve it early without delay."

As the words fell, strange phenomena arose.

A crisp sound came from the blue sky, a crack appeared, and then it spread in all directions like a spider web.

"The, the sky is broken...!" Paimon exclaimed.

The shattered sky collapsed like a layer of light.

Darkness instantly enveloped the earth. At this moment, the sky was pitch black and deep, and clusters of red flames that seemed to be burning in the void rose and fell in the depth.

When the gaze focused on that ominous, even a dragon race like Neuvillette felt cold all over, feeling a hoarse voice whispering with temptation in his ears, and his soul seemed to be pulled and swallowed.

Neuvillette knew it was an illusion, but the more so, the more horrified he felt, only by moving his gaze away did he feel lingering fear.

"Sure enough, it's burning eyebrows."

Gu Chen was somewhat surprised, after all, he had never paid attention to the situation outside the sky.

Jumping up, he turned into a black light and rose from the ground, instantly arriving outside the sky.

Those clusters of ominous fire seemed to indeed possess wisdom, began to gradually fuse with each other, slowly changed, and finally formed a huge ape shape burning with ominous flames.
