Chapter 637
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 devoured the True King's flesh and bones, and nothing would be left wherever it went... This power has great damage to everything. What Teyvat is facing now may be that ominousness!"
Hearing this, Focalors' expression also became grave, and she turned her head to look at Gu Chen.
From Neuvillette's words, it can be known that such power should have existed before the Primordial Ancestor fell, and it is even possible that it was the culprit that caused the Primordial Ancestor to fall!
Even the Primordial Ancestor fell under the ominous power. As the reincarnation, Gu Chen is likely unable to deal with such power, right?
While pondering, Lumine spoke: "So, Teyvat is about to be devoured by the ominous power?"
"Mm, 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 and then said: "Do you want to ask why Phanes seized the authority of all dragons?"
Neuvillette didn't speak, just nodded with a dark face.
Paimon replied: "The memory says that when Phanes was outside the heavens, k hadn't been born yet, but k had already observed that there was an ominous power on the other side of the distant starry sky approaching Teyvat... They seem to have wisdom, devouring everything along the way. The final goal is unknown, but Teyvat is the only way for the other party... 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 a blind worship of Father God. k didn't listen to Phanes at all... Helpless, Phanes could only defeat k, then wrap the planet with his eggshell, and then try to take this planet to avoid the ominousness, leaving the fire of Father God's descendants."
"Phanes prepared everything, but Nibelungen returned from outside the heavens, carrying the ominous power to descend... After the great war, Phanes had already been eroded. Although that ominous power was very weak, it also made k near death, becoming powerless..."
"The starry sky outside the eggshell has now become completely silent..."
Neuvillette's pupils shrank: "You mean, the world outside the False Sky has already been devoured by the ominousness?"
"Yes." Paimon nodded.
Neuvillette was extremely horrified and gasped.
He could probably understand why Phanes did this.
If the ancient dragons at that time could have listened to advice, perhaps Teyvat would not be facing the current scene.
But Neuvillette couldn't blame k, because he was the same, having a blind worship of the Primordial True King. 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 the throne."
Neuvillette and Focalors were stunned, and even Lumine was very stunned.
Paimon's words were like a prophecy, seeming to have a sense of destiny.
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 in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be the chosen successor."
Lumine gave a wry smile 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 desperately: "Phanes was eroded after being stained by the ominousness. How could I be as powerful as k? Savior or something... I can't do it, 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, she spoke much more fluently.
"Lumine contacting the Statue of the Seven will gain elemental power. In fact, it's not that she gained elemental power, but that she is accepting the authority of the elements... When she leaves her own precipitation in this world, she will be pushed to the throne by many authorities like stars arching over the moon. At that time, she will possess power surpassing the gods, and then she only needs to continue Phanes' plan to take Teyvat off its original track and avoid the ominousness that is about to rush over!"
"Not just elemental power, but the authority of the elements?"
Lumine whispered, raised her palm, and the five elemental powers of Anemo, Geo, Electro, Dendro, and Hydro were flowing in her palm.
"What is the success rate?" Gu Chen asked.
Paimon shook her head: "I don't know."
"It doesn't seem high." Neuvillette sighed.
"I don't know what the situation is outside... We'd better be able to contact all the forces we can contact and work together. Should the success rate be higher?" Lumine looked worried.
Gu Chen said gloomily: "She just said it, the ominousness 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 shot, you are also a reincarnation, you can't hold it at all, so we can only be devoured?"
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 doesn't necessarily see the whole picture of things."
Between the slow and steady words, Gu Chen had already stood up, hands behind his back, looking up at the direction outside the sky, his expression calm.
"Those who have not reached my realm see the tip of the iceberg and think it is the whole picture."
"Those who reach my realm see me as a mayfly seeing the blue sky."
"Fate is fickle and teases people. This fate is not good, just change it."
【Kaeya】: Holy crap, domineering!
【Azhdaha】: Translate, translate, what is called awesome!
【Shikanoin Heizou】: Translated: 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 can see the power I truly possess! In short: before reaching 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? (Scratches head)
【Zhongli】: Never seen such a terrifying existence...
【Gu Chen】: G! You saw it today! (Zhongli: Long Wang crooked mouth)
【Tartaglia】: Good, good, good, breaking my understanding of power again and again, right? Is that sentence "fate is not good, just change it" a bit too exaggerated?! (Paimon: Shocked)
【Nilou】: Hmph hmph! Changing 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) Changing the fate of a single life is simple, changing 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? (Zhongli: Long Wang crooked mouth)
【Dvalin】: The group of frogs in the well bubbles.. 0
【Lyney】: Group... sewer bubbles, look at the frog first and then look at the sky. (Covers face)
【Cyno】: The group's average level has increased again.
【Tighnari】: The suddenly raised group average level is just because of Mr. Gu Chen. (Tighnari: Scared)
"What do you mean?"
Lumine's eyes were filled with clear stupidity.
Neuvillette had a bottom line in his heart and said faintly: "It means that the existence that gave you your fate simply cannot understand the greatness of the 'Creator'."
Lumine understood a little.
The Sustainer is dying, the Creator... has long since recovered!
"Can it work?"
Focalors looked at Gu Chen with worry: "That is the ominousness that can entangle the Primordial Ancestor, you are now..."
Before she could finish, Gu Chen shook his head and said: "Don't worry about me. Since I can say it, I have enough confidence."
Focalors nodded gently and said nothing more.
"Then, then when will it start?" Paimon asked.
Seeing Paimon's scared-to-death appearance, Gu Chen smiled: "What are you afraid of? I don't eat people. Besides... when 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 to all sides like a spider web.
"The, the sky is broken...!" Paimon exclaimed.
The shattered sky crumbled like a layer of light.
Darkness instantly shrouded 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 were rising and falling in the depth.
When the gaze focused on that ominousness, even dragon species like Neuvillette felt chills all over, feeling a hoarse voice whispering with seduction in their ears, and their souls seemed to be pulled and devoured.
Neuvillette knew it was an illusion, but the more so, the more horrified he felt. Only by looking away did he feel lingering fear.
"Sure enough, it's burning eyebrows."
Gu Chen was a bit surprised, after all, he had never paid attention to the situation outside the sky.
Leaping up, he transformed into a black light and rose from the ground, instantly arriving outside the sky.
Those clusters of ominous fire seemed to have wisdom, starting to gradually merge with each other, slowly changing, and finally forming a huge ape shape burning with ominous flames.
