To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

Eden narrowed his eyes, picked up his wine glass to shield his vision, and then drank it all in one gulp, a slight blush rising to his cheeks.

...

Just as the Sword God's countless sharp blades were about to unleash their full power, everything seemed to freeze.

But for the person being targeted, she understood that this gap in time was merely an illusion created by exceeding human reaction capabilities.

As she was thinking rapidly, the divine essence, manifested as qi, continued to approach her forehead.

For her, whose sword heart had already been shattered, this sword strike was utterly devastating and unstoppable.

The sword light, almost too dazzling to look at, was precisely the basis for her opponent's ability to defeat her that she had been unable to articulate before.

"That's right, it really is the Sword God..."

"And I, too, must take this sword."

In the stagnant space, Fu Hua said to himself,

In fact, the best way to fight against the Sword God is to clash with each other when they are Herrschers of the Void, but unfortunately, she can't do that now.

She tried to pull her consciousness out of the stagnant space.

For some inexplicable reason, she recalled the distant past, during the Shenyin experiment.

As Dr. Mei said, she possessed a vast amount of time, and the divine voice granted her unlimited potential for growth, resolving the abnormal transformation caused by her excessive weight...

…but that does not mean it is completely harmless.

It is both a catalyst and a constraint, acting deep within the conscious mind, something comparable to precepts.

"Those who fall into demonic possession... must be punished..."

She couldn't help but smile bitterly; then it could be considered an irreversible side effect.

In the recent Anti-Entropy experiment, under the testing of Tesla and Einstein, she also truly realized this.

Consciousness is entirely in one's own hands, leading one down the path of life chosen by oneself.

It sounded wonderful, but the disappearance of Kenshin and Shinon meant that even though her body had recovered its original qualities, she could not reach her former strength.

All the techniques that once required sword heart were banned, causing her strength to plummet and everything to return to square one.

But correspondingly... physical limitations also disappeared, and forbidden methods were awakened once again.

But that was a last resort, and she couldn't change the outcome.

"But during the Second Collapse, your physical condition was even worse than it is now. Yet back then, you could still use the techniques of the Void Sword God..." Einstein calmly analyzed for Fu Hua.

Fu Hua simply shook her head and said helplessly.

"At that time, I still possessed Feather Dust, which was an exception."

"Moreover, it was at that time that I realized that even the Taixu Sword God could make a mistake."

"At that time, another being shielded the Herrscher..."

She paused here, as if considering an impossible possibility.

What was once just idle gossip has now become a concrete fact... After all, who could have imagined that the Great Void Sword God would actually appear in the world?

...

As Li Sushang's Void Sword God materialized, Fu Hua's heart remained calm and undisturbed.

No one could confirm this possibility for me—that's what she thought.

But at this moment, she truly felt the arrangement of fate. She thought she would never have the chance to face the Void Sword God again, and that her speculations about the so-called Honkai God had come to an end, but she never expected...

Nothing is absolute.

Fu Hua sighed softly and looked towards the opposite side. The golden greatsword was about to fall, carrying the force of a cataclysmic event.

She wasn't panicked. Instead, she focused her attention on her mind, wanting to confirm her guess again, since it concerned her life.

The lake was crystal clear, with a sliver of light falling upon it. Due to a rudimentary law of physics, the light, upon entering the lake, produced a deflection that was undeniable yet difficult to discern.

When it finally touched the dark bottom of the lake, its direction was no longer the same as when it started.

As she felt a pang of emotion, Fu Hua let out a long sigh.

Or rather, they breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that their judgment was correct.

"Moo, Kabaisliu..."

Strange syllables flowed from her mouth—but she stopped after tentatively uttering one sentence.

Her thoughts were racing.

The recent probing had convinced her that the sword heart within her, and that divine, spiritual imprint... had already strayed onto a path that was no longer on the right track.

What lies within her is undoubtedly the realm of still water.

Still water, dustless, clear mirror, and boundless void represent the four realms of swordsmanship.

Beginners should start with still water.

About five hundred years ago... a raging fire shot into the sky, and a sword was pointed at the forehead.
