[Two hundred years after the Burial of Fire, Tuanzi has decided to help you resist the Honkai. Unaware that the Honkai of Teyvat has actually become you, tell him your plan—to establish a stable system of divine order.]

The idea of ​​a war between demons and gods received Tuanzi's support. If the world were to establish such an order, then humanity should also have seven such beliefs. Giving humanity hope would allow them to have faith. In other words, the sky would rule over seven gods, the seven gods would rule over the people of seven kingdoms, and the people would believe in the gods and revere the sky.

“Then use my body.” Tuanzi said without hesitation regarding the materials for the Heart of God: “My bones have an enhancing effect on elemental power, so they should be able to grant me the power corresponding to its function, right?”

"This..." Su Chen hesitated for a moment, "Is this alright?"

"Why not? I'm already dead anyway." Tuanzi didn't care.

"Only the body died."

"Even a remnant soul must eventually die."

Yes, His soul will eventually disappear; it will probably come to an end in a few hundred years. But for Tuanzi, the short time in Teyvat was far happier than the thousands of years he spent wandering the universe. Now that he has had enough happiness, it's time to pay the price for it.

“There’s a daemon in Liyue named Morax, right?” Tuanzi said. “I really like his definition of contracts: fair interaction. This is very important for the stability of order. Fanes, you should learn from his perseverance.”

Su Chen said, "I'm insisting. I was just being polite. Don't take it seriously."

Dumpling: "~!@#¥%……&*"

"Haha~ But seriously, it would be nice to be friends with you if possible."

Not all extraterrestrial beings are so terrifying, and Su Chen has no doubt about that. Some cross different worlds as if it were a journey, while others travel by train to do good deeds without leaving their names.

Unfortunately, Tuanzi died when he arrived in Teyvat, and he will eventually leave. Although Su Chen was reluctant, he was not so heartbroken as to be unable to let go of this.

The dumpling's body has an amazing affinity for the elements, making it perfect for creating the Heart of God as a reward for the victors of the Demon God War. Moreover, the Heart of God contains the Eye of God, which is a subordinate structure of the Seven Gods system. The dumpling is right; giving people hope and blessings is what attracts more people to follow and believe in.

To put it bluntly, the Eye of God is a reward that corresponds to the restrictions imposed by the order. Within the cage of established order, there can be more than just restrictions; there must also be rewards for those who excel. When someone steps forward and sets an example, everyone realizes the greatness of the sky.

Of course, this is a question to be considered from the perspective of natural law. In reality, for the people of Teyvat, having the eye of God to break through their predicament is equivalent to having hope. As for who is the ruler of the heavens, it has no impact on them. With hope, people will not rebel.

"Why does this feel a bit like something an ancient emperor would do?" Su Chen felt an increasing sense of déjà vu.

[Three hundred years after the Burial of Fire, you and Tuanzi began researching the creation of the Heart of God. You gradually felt your power weakening, while at the same time, the power of the Abyss Order was slowly increasing. Even if you did nothing, the scattered power of the Abyss would converge on you.]

"You have a jerk in your family."

Tuanzi also noticed the increase in the power of the abyss.

The seven elements and the power of the abyss are constantly in a state of mutual restraint. Tuanzi has such a strong affinity for elemental forces that it can detect any movement of the abyss power.

“That bastard, just like the force that destroyed my homeland, they’re coming to destroy yours now. Fanes, we have to speed things up. We can’t let them suppress us, or we won’t be able to turn the tide.”

"Uh... I'll try my best."

"Not just try, but definitely, Fañes, my friend, I'm really worried for you."

"Where did you learn this strange way of speaking?"

“I’ve been learning from the people of Mondstadt lately. They’re always so romantic, and I want to be a little more romantic too.”

Su Chen's lips twitched slightly, thinking to himself, "Don't you dare try to be romantic with me, you idiot."

However, Tuanzi's concerns are not without merit. Although half of his soul occupies the will of the Abyss, he cannot control his actions of destroying Teyvat. The meaning of the Abyss's existence is to destroy all civilizations. In other words, as long as the Abyss Order is alive, the Honkai will continue.

The problem is that the Abyss is immortal. Even if its will is slain, a new Abyssal will will emerge after a while. The only thing Su Chen can do now is to try to shrink the power of the Abyssal Order and lurk in the bottom layer of the Teyvat world so as not to affect this world, until an order that is in a stable state with the power of the Abyss can be established.

[Four hundred years after the Burial of Fire, thanks to your and Tuanzi's efforts, the first Heart of God has been completed.]

[After you summoned Morax to test it out and confirmed that the Heart of God could enhance elemental power and improve elemental compatibility, you created the remaining six Hearts of God.]

[The seven hearts of God gathered, and you immediately issued the command.]

[Four hundred and ten years after the Burial of Fire, the War of Demons and Gods begins.]

"It finally begins."

On Sky Island.

Watching the increasingly tense situation on the ground, Baal sighed softly, "A battle between demon gods is simply unimaginable. Many people will probably die like this."

Asmodeus said, “The master certainly didn’t want this either, but since the invasion of the abyss, His power has been weakening. I can feel that the master has been doing his best to suppress the abyss’s counterattack. As shadows, we should unconditionally support whatever the master wants to do.”

“That mysterious descendant…” Baal pondered for a moment, “I am somewhat concerned. If this decision is the master’s will, we will naturally do our best. But I fear that the master may be bewitched.”

“No,” Asmodeus shook his head. “That guy doesn’t have the ability to bewitch his master.”

"Asmodeus, do you understand Him?"

Asmodeus shook her head; she knew, but couldn't say.

A simple-minded little dumpling... that's what Su Chen told her, and besides, it's a dead person, what kind of threat could it pose?

However, very few people know anything about the Third Advent, and even Asmodeus only vaguely knows that Su Chen and Tuanzi made something using Tuanzi's body.

Also... two days ago, Su Chen suddenly found her and told her some bad things, as well as some inexplicable things.

She was told to conserve her strength from now on, to seal away a portion of her power, and that she would encounter some minor setbacks in the future... Asmodeus didn't understand, but she still did as Su Chen said.

She sealed the Sky Stone Tablet bestowed upon her by Su Chen, and without this power, her strength was greatly reduced.

“I hope everything will get better,” Baal sighed. “Baimon is dead, so Master helped her retain her original memories and power, but even if she is reborn, it’s hard to say whether she will remember herself, and what about Ishtar…”

"How is Istaru doing?"

"She is already looking for a successor for herself."

Su Chen used the power of gravity to reverse the destruction of Teyvat, but this only worked on the ground. For the Four Kage, reversing the destruction would be very difficult.

It's already quite remarkable that Baimon was able to preserve even a trace of his original essence. As for Istaru, she was severely injured but did not die. However, as Su Chen's power weakened, her already impoverished family situation worsened, to the point that she had to find a successor. It's truly heartbreaking.

“And the Celestial Race too…” Baal finally fell silent.

Asmodeus remained silent.

The Fairy race was cursed because they disobeyed orders and descended from Sky Isles to the ground to help humanity when Su Chen designed to bring the Abyss into Teyvat. As a result, they lost their appearance and most of the Fairies became speechless elves, wandering Teyvat and bringing treasures to those who are destined to find them.

Asmodeus felt some sympathy for the Fairy Clan's plight. Although she didn't get along well with Marikata at first, her later performance on Sky Isle earned her approval.

I wonder if Marikata has turned out like that... Asmodeus shook his head. Now is not the time to think about these things. No matter what she has turned out like, I guess I will never see her again.

the other side.

On the ancient tree.

Tuanzi looked at the situation on the ground and chuckled, "Fanes, which demons do you think will win?"

"That's hard to say," Su Chen shook his head.

"I think Morax will definitely be the winner in Liyue. As for Sumeru, Amon has a high chance of winning. It seems that no Daedric Lords are willing to go to Mondstadt, and other places are also in chaos. I don't know many of them."

Su Chen didn't speak. He flew down from the ancient tree, flapped his wings, and a huge city-state appeared on the sky island. At the center of the city-state sat a magnificent palace, and the hourglass of time was used to record the flow of time above the palace. As the sands flowed, time also flowed.

He moved all those chosen to be on the Isle of Sky into this city-state, and then summoned Asmodeus, instructing her to allow all those who would ascend from the ground to live here in the future.

"What do you want to do?" Tuanzi asked curiously.

Su Chen said, "Let's conduct an experiment."

"Experiment? What are you trying to verify?"

"How to enable humans to use elemental power without using external magical organs."

Tuanzi immediately said, "That's impossible."

“It was impossible before, but with your body, it is possible.”

"You rascal, you said you were sad for me before, but it was all a lie."

Su Chen laughed and said, "How else can I comfort you?" After saying that, he said slowly, "Besides, I feel more and more that this is a symbol of moving towards a higher level of civilization. Given Teyvat's current situation, even if it establishes a system of seven gods, it can only maintain a balance with the power of the abyss at most. But once the balance is broken, Teyvat will have no way out."

"I've thought about it for a long time. To completely solve the problem of collapse, we need to move civilization to a higher level, not just to develop and progress, but to leap to a higher state."

“You told me that you still remember the situation in your hometown, where people can use elemental power without external assistance. I think that’s the manifestation of advancement.”

"Hmm... what you said makes sense, but can it really succeed?" Tuanzi expressed her doubts. Allowing civilization to leap to a higher level could indeed completely solve the threat of the abyss. If everyone could use elemental power, it would mean that the power of the natural order would also rise to a higher level, and then the will of the abyss could be completely suppressed.

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Su Chen's idea actually stemmed from his experience before the simulation. Now he finally understood what the experimental field on Sky Island was all about.

Let civilization advance.

In the end, it seems that we have gone down the same path as before.

And as it turns out, this idea is indeed feasible. As long as the situation of Sky Isle in the future is applied to the entire Teyvat continent, the possibility of civilization advancement is very high. As for why the Heavenly Principle failed back then, Su Chen guessed that the Heavenly Principle order had weakened to the extreme at that time and was simply unable to carry out the next step.

But now it's different. As long as he completes this experiment, he will definitely be able to carry it out, because in addition to the template of Heavenly Principles and Order, he also has the power of Abyss Order to use.

"Fanes, you're a genius." Seeing Su Chen take action, Tuanzi happily followed along. He was happy, not because he had found a solution, but because he had something to do. His time was running out, and doing more and being less idle and bored was the greatest respect he could show in the end.

Five hundred years after the Burial Fire, the battle between the gods and demons has fully erupted. This will be the greatest war in Teyvat's history, with gods and demons rising up to fight for power.

[Six hundred years after the Burial of Fire, you and Tuanzi successfully constructed the device to maintain the operation of the Seven Star System. The Seven God Thrones were established, and the Heart of God is connected to the throne. Whoever obtains the Heart of God will have the qualification to sit on the throne and establish a connection with Sky Island.]

[After the Seven Gods Device was completed, Tuanzi's soul power weakened further, and her time was running out.]

And your time is running out.

The outbreak of the Demon God War has further disrupted order. Your body, lacking the power to sustain itself, is gradually collapsing. The shattered fragments scatter across Teyvat, merging into the sky as part of the natural order.

"I didn't expect your situation to be so bad too. Sigh~ I was originally thinking of leaving on my own and making you sad for the rest of your life." Looking at her friend of hundreds of years, Tuanzi sighed with relief, "Thank goodness, at this rate, I'll be the one to die first."

Su Chen said, "Whether you die sooner or later, you're going to die anyway."

However, his death was not a direct disappearance. Even if this were a simulation, and he were to actually die, the Abyss Order would still exist, and he would still be alive.

[Seven hundred years after the Burial of Fire, you successfully completed the laboratory on Sky Island. Using the dumpling's body as a power medium, you manipulated elemental power without relying on the Eye of God. After a hundred years of evolution, successful examples have emerged on Sky Island.]

Seeing this, you realize that your initial idea was correct; now all you need is time to nurture it, allowing this seed of future hope to slowly take root and sprout.

In the same year, Tuanzi's soul power came to an end.

"Goodbye, my friend." Tuanzi's figure slowly disappeared in the light.

"Goodbye."

As Su Chen watched Him disappear, his heart was filled with endless sorrow.

Although they haven't known each other for long, this guy suits his temperament quite well.

Pity...

"I'll wait until you die, then remember to come find me." These were the last words left behind by the vanished dumpling.

Su Chen: "..."
