Turning his head, he found the Flower Goddess looking at him with a smile.
"How long has it been?" Su Chen asked.
"Hmm...not long, twenty-five days," the Flower Goddess said. "The Seven Gods have already descended upon Kanria, and a great war is breaking out. That human kingdom is far more terrifying than we anticipated."
I thought that facing the Shurima army head-on was shocking enough, but I never expected that there were even more terrible threats lurking within the kingdom.
Twenty-five days, sigh, almost half of life is gone... Su Chen shook his head gently: "That's normal. Nearly two thousand years of development is enough for a civilization to rise and even reach its peak. And the internal forces of Kanria were originally set out to resist, so they had plenty of time to prepare."
If given two thousand years to develop a civilization centered on forbidden power, he is confident he could do better than the current Kanria.
“Marikata.” Su Chen turned around, looked at the beautiful goddess so close to him, and said softly, “I may have to leave you for a while.”
The goddess of flowers remained silent, seemingly unsurprised. She said, "I had a premonition. On moonlit nights, when the clear spring flowed beneath your feet, when the flowers bloomed in quiet splendor... I secretly watched you with a sorrowful expression. I know you have a thousand thoughts in your heart, but dear Azir, no matter what happens, no matter when, I will be with you. If you must leave, then no matter how long, I will wait for you."
You embraced the goddess of flowers, quietly savoring her final moments of peace.
Three days later, calamity swept through Teyvat. A dark horde of monsters breached the kingdom's high walls and surged forth from the ground, launching an indiscriminate attack on all living beings on the land. A terrifying will descended from the darkness, and the monster hordes were virtually omnipresent and infiltrated every nook and cranny.
Even though Shurima had made prior preparations, they still paid a heavy price for the first wave of beast horde. Fortunately, with the help of the Seven Pillars, Nasus led the Ascended to fight back, and after a prolonged period of attrition, they finally managed to stabilize the situation.
You silently observe all of this. Though the sun's rays can no longer illuminate Shurima, the valiant soldiers have not retreated. At this moment, you feel proud, proud of the strength of your nation.
But soon, through the eyes of the yellow sand, you saw the image of dark power spreading across the land. That forbidden power, devouring everything, had penetrated deep along the earth's veins, reaching its end, attempting to erode the World Tree.
"I must go," you say to the goddess of flowers, "She is in danger."
The final moments have arrived, and you feel you must do something, even if it's futile, rather than stand here waiting.
"Go," said the goddess of flowers.
She supports your decision, but reminds you to be extremely careful, as your strength is far from its peak at this moment.
You step into the earth's ley lines, proceeding along the path of all the accumulated memories, and detect the source of that ominous power.
Uh-huh! ~
Within the space where the World Tree is concentrated.
The Great Tree King stood beneath the World Tree, radiating a boundless divine power that connected with the World Tree, resisting the invasion of forbidden forces.
Even with the power of the World Tree's origin, she still struggled to withstand the overwhelming tide of forbidden teachings.
This force is too powerful!
It is far more powerful than the portion that the Red King extracted.
Moreover, forbidden knowledge can corrupt all that is known. The memories that converge on the World Tree through the ley lines are the best vehicles for forbidden knowledge to invade the World Tree.
The Great Tree King had to be extremely careful, because if something went wrong and the information stored within the World Tree was destroyed, this world would be 'missing'.
"These forces are terrifying..."
The Great Compassion Tree King's expression was solemn.
Fortunately, she wasn't completely unprepared.
By gathering the wisdom of all the people of Sumeru through the void, the immense computing power pushed the power of the Heart of God to its limit. Combined with her own power, she barely managed to keep this forbidden knowledge outside the World Tree.
However, it is difficult to completely eliminate it. While maintaining the stalemate, the Great Tree King tried to spare some of its power to purify the forbidden power.
Because she had previous experience in clearing taboos, she succeeded after a little attempt.
However, with her own strength alone, she could not completely avoid the harm that the taboo would cause her while eliminating it.
As the dark power surged toward him bit by bit, the Great Tree King frowned slightly. Although he was worried, he didn't have a good solution.
Finally, as the dark power surged into her body, a feeling of coldness and despair quickly washed over her. The extreme discomfort caused the Great Tree King's face to turn pale. She quickly mobilized her divine power to protect her stomach—because there lay the fruit of her and Su Chen's life.
But the taboo seemed to have discovered this, and with more frenzied power surging toward the Great Tree King, she could no longer maintain that delicate balance.
"...No, if this continues, we won't be able to protect anyone..."
If the forbidden power is allowed to erode the world, the unborn child will suffer immense pain, and even the World Tree will be damaged.
Upon pondering this, a look of struggle appeared on the face of the Great Tree.
A moment later, she gritted her teeth, diverted a portion of her power, and forcibly extracted the life essence from her body, injecting it into the World Tree. She was the embodiment of the World Tree, so her will also reflected the will of the World Tree.
Swish~~
The branches and leaves of the World Tree sway, carefully protecting that wisp of life essence.
"Please, no matter what..." The Great Tree King made a final request to the World Tree, then released all her power, forcibly gathering forbidden power into one place.
Buzz buzz~~
The two forces are locked in a fierce confrontation.
Just when the Great Tree King was about to give up, a hand grasped her arm, and as power surged in, the forbidden erosion finally stopped temporarily.
"Azir?!"
The Great Compassion Tree King turned its head, its expression one of utter astonishment.
"Why are you here?"
Su Chen chuckled: "I can't let you face something so terrifying alone."
"But your body..." The Great Compassion Tree King saw that, due to the overexertion of his power, Su Chen's body, which had not yet recovered, was gradually beginning to collapse, and every part of his body seemed to be emitting mournful cries.
"It's fine."
Su Chen comforted him, "Leave the very end to me."
The Great Compassion Tree King was taken aback.
The next moment, she saw a holy golden light rise again from Su Chen's body. Bathed in the golden light, he seemed to have transformed back into the peerless desert emperor!
boom! ! !
Deep within the dungeons of Narimar, the ancient disc once again burst forth with dazzling light!
Upon seeing this, the goddess of flowers, who was standing in front of the palace, shed sorrowful tears. Her tears fell and transformed into bitter spring water that flowed into the mountains and rivers.
Meanwhile, the Shurima soldiers, who were fighting hard, once again felt a great power descend upon them.
In the sky, the huge disc emitted a dazzling light, its radiance even surpassing that of the sun!
"My emperor!"
"Kill!!!"
Everyone was greatly encouraged and began to fight back fiercely.
"Azir, no..." The Great Tree King choked as he looked at Su Chen.
Burn your body, burn your will, burn the little time you have left—and then, bring it all together in this moment!
"Tree King, do not grieve for me. Please believe that at some point in the future, I will return once again."
Divine power emanated, and the glory of the Desert Emperor illuminated the entire World Tree space.
Su Chen reached out and absorbed all the taboos into himself!
At this moment, his eyes burned like flames, and his body transformed into the sun, echoing the sun disk hanging above Shurima.
"Burn away in glory!"
tumultuous!!
The forbidden power burned along with Su Chen's body, turning into starlight under the despairing gaze of the Great Compassion Tree King, and disappearing into the world.
At the moment of parting, Su Chen seemed to see the Great Tree King open its mouth, trying to tell him something.
But in the end, nothing could be heard...
[Beep~ This simulation has ended.]
...

"Azir, you always say you want children. If... I mean, if you really have a child, what name will you give it?" the Great Tree King asked suddenly on a whim.
"As for the name... let's call her Naxida then," Su Chen said with a smile.
Fragmented memories surfaced in the Great Compassion Tree King's mind. As she watched Su Chen disappear before her eyes, tears of sorrow streamed down her face.
"Azir, I will wait for you with the children..."
...
A hurricane suddenly swept through Shurima, with sand and dust swirling in the air like terrifying dark clouds that blotted out the sun, plunging everything into a gloomy darkness.
The once dazzling solar disk, suspended in the air, transformed into a great sun, burning out its last bit of energy, and then turned to ashes and was swept into the sandstorm.
All the people of Shurima immediately felt as if they had been punched in the chest, and their breathing became difficult.
"Emperor Azir!!!"
Nasus let out a mournful cry.
Narimaj, looking at the sun disk that had completely dimmed, felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
"Azir..."
The sky and the earth were as if the end of the world had arrived. When the emperor who controlled the yellow sand fell, the sand became extremely restless. Terrifying waves of yellow sand swept over the land, dragging the dark monsters into the bottomless abyss.
Strangely, the Shuriman people who wanted to flee found that the terrifying yellow sand bypassed them and attacked only the monsters.
Then the yellow sand gathered above Mount Sumeru, transforming into a gigantic phantom of Azir. He raised his scepter high, his voice booming like thunder: "My soldiers, advance!!"
There was no time for sorrow; only endless burning anger filled their hearts. All the ascendants, guards, and Ironclad warriors were enraged.
"For His Majesty the Emperor!!"
"Defend the glory of Shurima! Kill!!!"
...
The terrible sandstorm lasted for three days and three nights before finally stopping. When the sky cleared again, the people of Shurima discovered that most of the terrifying monsters had been buried under the yellow sand. The great crisis was largely averted thanks to Emperor Azir's mercy, but at the same time, the oasis began to disappear, and the desert once again filled the entire land.
In the year 2400 of the Desert Calendar, the Calamity of Kanria swept across the entire continent of Teyvat. The Desert Emperor Azir perished, the Seven Gods suffered heavy casualties, and the Sky Isle fell into silence.
The Great Tree King, having exhausted her power, entered a deep slumber within the World Tree. Before closing her eyes, she gently lifted the spirit in her arms and sent it to the land of Sumeru. This child, symbolizing the fruit of her and Azir's life, will grow up to become the new God of Wisdom, assuming the position of the Grass God.
