Genshin Impact, all those behind-the-scenes big shots are me

Therefore, if Su Chen wanted to improve his strength, he could only choose to improve Asmodeus's strength.

Although this will still affect the future, the impact is within a controllable range, as long as he makes the arrangements... for example, at some point in the future, when fighting with the Dragon King or the Emperor, he might hold back or something.

"Um..."

Consider it compensation for the times I hit her before.

Thinking of this, Su Chen called Asmodeus to his side.

"Master, you wanted to see me?" the Sky Ruler asked respectfully.

Looking at the Sustainer, Su Chen chuckled: "Asmodeus, do you want to become stronger?"

...

Chapter 156 Creation, the Heart of the Fetal Sea, Egolia, and Marikata's Stubbornness

Asmodeus was feeling a little flattered.

Lord Fanes suddenly asked her if she wanted to become stronger. The meaning was quite clear: she wanted to surpass the level of the Four Shadows and become even stronger!

Although it's very likely that all four shadows will receive this treatment, she's the first, so that makes a difference.

As it turned out, her initial feeling was indeed correct; Lord Fanes did indeed treat her with special care.

Of course, this time it's also possible that she's being used as a 'guinea pig'... Well, given Lord Fanes' strength, that's unlikely; he must be confident before he proposed it.

So, she's gotten used to being bossed around?

After all, they are all four shadows, summoned together, so we can't just favor her.

"What, you don't want to?" Su Chen asked when she remained silent.

"No...it's entirely up to you, Master. But...how do I need to cooperate with you?"

Asmodeus quickly said.

"You don't need to do anything, but not now. I'll call you when it's ready."

The method to make the shadow stronger is simple: just integrate his stone tablet into his body. The power of the stone tablet comes from the origin of the laws, and as long as the attributes match, it can greatly enhance the shadow's strength.

In other words, as long as the Sky Stone is given to Asmodeus, she will immediately become stronger.

However, since he was going to do this anyway, Su Chen thought he might as well create a super maintainer, because the current stone slab can only reduce 70% of the damage, and its ability to enhance attribute power is far from exhausted.

Talent can be enhanced.

Su Chen had experienced this before; the simplest example was his talent for slacking off... well, although that thing was pretty useless.

As for enhancing the power of the Cleansing Slab, given the current situation, Su Chen has established order on the Teyvat continent and integrated the source of power into Teyvat. This means that as long as the power system of Teyvat is perfected, the abilities of the Slab can be enhanced simultaneously. Logically speaking, since he is the ruler of Teyvat, it is absolutely possible for the Slab to achieve 100% immunity.

Moreover, because establishing order can replenish his power, the amplification effect of the stone slab will be far more terrifying than imagined.

This is probably why the amplification aspect isn't mentioned in the talent description; after all, the maximum damage reduction is 100%, but the amplification can be stacked infinitely.

Having pondered this, Su Chen began to refocus his attention on creation.

[Having carried the branches for 350 years, you have transformed the continent of Teyvat as much as possible, and now you begin to create life.]

Creating life is different from modifying Teyvat. To you, life born from civilization is far too fragile, whether it be birds and beasts, or flowers and trees—they are all extremely weak and insignificant.

[So you called upon the rulers of life to create life together.]

You have arrived at the Primordial Sea of ​​the Embryo. Since the Water Dragon King was slain, this place has become a no-man's land. The Sea of ​​the Embryo is the primordial power that nurtures planets. To enable it to function fully, it must be given a beating heart.

The Water Dragon King, who was the original heart, was killed, so you must create a heart for the womb water yourself.

[You used the primal power of the water elemental law to create a pure water spirit and gave her the name—Agoria.]

At this point, Agoria had not yet developed a complete mind; she existed merely as the heart of the primordial womb. But you didn't care; as long as she served her purpose, that was enough for you.

With the heart in place, the power of the primordial womb was fully unleashed, and you and Baal began to create life on the earth. First, you created forests, spreading them across mountains and lands, and then you adorned the forests with flowers and green grass, giving the continent of Teyvat its first signs of life.

Then you created fish, allowing them to live freely in the water, followed by wild beasts and birds in the forest... In this process, because of the inherent nature of the elements, many elemental life forms were born in the world.

These elemental life forms are different from those of the primordial era known by the Seven Dragons. They are companion spirits born under the laws of nature and order, with the most representative being the celestial spirits, representing purity and beauty.

Besides the celestial spirits, there are seven elemental spirits, which cannot be born in this environment due to the supreme laws governing life and death.

[At this point, Teyvat began to come to life.]

[Genesis progress increased, current progress: 20%.]

"What adorable little guys."

In the sky, the four figures looked down at the creatures on the ground and chatted and laughed with each other.

After the transformation of heaven and earth, its appearance changed dramatically, and the laws of the elements were perfected. It was like two completely different places compared to the primordial era when the seven dragons ruled.

Flowers and grasses sway, insects and fish leap, birds and beasts cry out, auspicious light occasionally bursts forth, and celestial spirits and mythical beasts roam the mountains and forests—this is the original state of heaven and earth.

"Baal, is Master going to create humans next?"

"Istaru asked."

"probably."

"Don't you know either?"

“No one can guess what the master is thinking... Isn’t Asmodeus the closest to the master? She should know.”

Asmodeus gazed at the distant figure in the sky, a radiant Phanes as bright as the sun. His wings were a dazzling gold, his claws a silvery gleam, and he wore a purple-gold crown. He was the undisputed master of this world.

If Phanes is the sun of Teyvat, then they are the moon of Teyvat.

“Master is still perfecting the starry sky,” Asmodeus said.

"Perfect the starry sky? Haven't we already successfully isolated ourselves from the outside world?"

"It's the starry sky, not the sky."

Asmodeus remembered that Fanes had said that the starry sky should not be blank, nor should it be merely falsehood and deception; it should reflect the most primordial 'constellation' of every living being in Teyvat.

Asmodeus is not yet clear about the meaning of the word "Constellation," but she feels that only when this step is reached can the order of Teyvat be considered initially complete.

However, it is far from enough to deduce the destiny based solely on what is currently available. After trying for several years, Su Chen abandoned his current plans and instead entered the stage of creating a human.

However, humans are the most intelligent of all beings, and Su Chen is well aware of human nature. Their thirst for and exploration of the unknown is ever-expanding, making humans both lovable and dangerous.

If this were a godless world, humanity could accomplish many things and resolve devastating disasters through its own abilities.

But this is a world with gods, and danger lurks everywhere outside Teyvat. This excessive pursuit of knowledge could destroy them, and more importantly, destroy Teyvat.

Therefore, humans need to maintain a sense of awe towards the heavens in order to restrain excessive desires in their hearts.

Reverence is predicated on the unknown, and the unknown is what is most frightening. Once we fully understand it, even the greatest existence will gradually lose its awe to humanity.

With a thought, Su Chen sent out the rock slab, which quickly formed a huge island in the air.

The island is covered with towering mountains and lush forests, with chains of order encircling it.

Although it's so close, it's still out of reach.

Sky Island.

Su Chen said slowly, "From today onwards, this will be where we live."

You named the island 'Sky Island'.

[Genesis progress increased, current progress: 30%]

The creation of Sky Island order jumped 10% in one go, which surprised Su Chen and also gave him a certain insight.

In addition to horizontal coverage, order also needs to be layered vertically.

Ultimately, disorder arises from excessive 'equality,' where strict laws are ignored, and desires swell after the rules are no longer in place, leading to destruction.

Therefore, after the emergence of humankind, he must give all beings joy and happiness, but he must also restrain them. The order restricts not the development of civilization and technology, but the uncontrollable desires.

This necessitates the further establishment of a comprehensive system of celestial principles.

You built a palace on Sky Island and called yourself 'Heavenly Principle'. Heavenly Principle is you, and it is also the order of this world.

The four shadows have been appointed as the four rulers, while some powerful celestial beings have been allowed to enter Sky Island. They are gods of the heavens and messengers of the gods, and will henceforth act as intermediaries between the heavens and humanity.

"Next up are humans."

After the initial establishment of Sky Island, Su Chen called Baal to go to the Primordial Fetal Sea to begin the project of creating humans.

Humans should have life, so you used the power of the womb water to give them a beating heart.

Humans should possess wisdom, and so you use your gifts to awaken their intelligence.

Humans are subject to birth, aging, sickness, and death, and experience the seven emotions and six desires. Therefore, you established corresponding rules for them. As memories sink into the earth's veins, they will also be recorded by the World Tree and become a part of this world.

[After 400 years of nurturing, the first human appeared on the continent of Teyvat.]

“My lord, the exalted Phanes.”

Su Chen personally awakened the wisdom of humanity's ancestors, and then used that wisdom to ignite the flame of human civilization.

For civilization to continue, it must be able to reproduce, so you and Baal created human males and females one after another.

The first humans were born, much like Adam and Eve living in the Garden of Eden. Because they had not yet developed the ethical and moral concepts of later generations, they retained the original concepts of human nature—they ate when they were hungry, drank when they were thirsty, and laughed when they were happy. When their emotions matured, they followed their primal impulses as humans to create the next generation.

Su Chen did not guide humanity too much; he simply created humanity, and how to develop civilization was up to them to consider.

The earliest human ancestor was named Ama, revered by all as a 'prophet'. After Su Chen unlocked his wisdom, he brought hope to the entire human race. The group first developed into tribes, and after five years, they began using fire to cook food. After twenty years, they learned to make stone tools for hunting. After fifty years, the entire human tribe had learned simple sewing techniques, how to cultivate crops, and how to mine minerals. The tribe relied primarily on hunting and lived happily on the land bestowed upon them by Su Chen.

Throughout human development, Su Chen was secretly observing all of this.

The constellations of the stars have not yet been deduced, but the development of human civilization has given him great inspiration. Every person who is born will be recorded by this world and exist in a specific form. Humans are ever-changing; they will grow up, mature, and acquire power and wisdom, but there will always be one thing that will not change, serving as their only proof on the continent of Teyvat.

That is the Destiny Star.

From this perspective, a natal chart is like an ID card, giving each person a unique identifier. The myriad celestial phenomena create countless possibilities for different natal charts, so everyone's natal chart is different.

So, how to use this vast array of stars to give each person a unique destiny marker is a question that Su Chen has been pondering.

[After five hundred years of nurturing, the first prophet, at the end of his life, summoned all the people of the tribe.]
