To be precise, it's about waiting for the "representative of the Liyue Geo Archon" to appear and explain things to her.

Last night, the noisy woman from the Kingdom of Winter came to the main hall of the castle tower and made a lot of unreasonable demands, such as "compensating the losses of the merchants from the Kingdom of Winter" and "apprehending the perpetrators who attacked the residence of the diplomats from the Kingdom of Winter", but the shogun did not respond to any of them.

But the "lady" mentioned a piece of intelligence that even the general could not ignore—"The Liyue people's fleet will invade Skyhold today."

With the Evil Eye factory destroyed and an executive officer missing, "Lady" naturally dispatched her capable subordinates to keep a close eye on the enemy's movements.

The news of the "Tianheng" ship's preparations for departure was sent to the "Lady" well in advance, and the "Lady" naturally had to play this "diplomatic bargaining chip".

—This is what Kujo Takayuki called "reinforcements."

"The general took action because of the request of the winter envoy, not because the Heavenly Territory Envoy was ineffective in battle"... General Raiden saw right through Kujo Takayuki's tricks.

No problem.

There are only things that must be done and things that must not be done in this world.

Determining the intentions of one of the "Seven Earthly Rulers" is a task the general must undertake.

Furthermore, the Godless Tomb is not only an important stronghold under the rule of the Heavenly Territory, but also the Heavenly Territory of the General, a place of inviolable majesty.

In fact, if we only consider the "Tenryo" (天领), as the Tenryo Administered states, the Inazuma Islands are all Tenryo of the Shogun.

Even the island of Haigi, ruled by a daimyo, the island of Tsurukan, shrouded in thick fog, the island of Seirai, covered by thunderstorms, or the island of Hachiyun, where the remains of Orobas are located... all of them are the territory of the Thunder General. Logically speaking, the Thunder General should not have tolerated the existence of rebellion from the very beginning.

But the concept of "Inazuma Tenryo" in the movie "Raiden General" is completely different from what most people know.

In the concept of Ray's films, the "Eternal Paradise" she protected, the territory that once promised her subjects "eternity," was limited to Narukami Island.

Only Narukami Island, where the sisters Raiden Shin, Kitsuri-no-miya, Mikoto Chiyo, Sasa Yuri, and others live in peace, is where the people they swore to protect when they crossed the sea to settle down.

Of all the islands in the Inazuma Archipelago, only this island is named "Narukami".

In fact, ancient civilizations existed throughout the Inazuma Islands, all of which were protected by the "Great God of the World"...

For the general, or for Lei Movie, the land outside Narukami Island was originally the territory of the "Great God of the Eternal World." Although he himself had also embarked on the path of "eternity," these lands were merely being managed on behalf of that "Great God of the Eternal World."

If the "Great God of the World" returns, Lei Film will naturally return these lands—the "Great God of the World" has already given her a second chance at life, and the lands are of no use to her...besides, there are no of her people on those lands.

Among the Haiji people, Qinglai people, and Heguan people, there are actually not many who identify as "Inatsume people," and they do not worship Narukami.

Only Narukami Ichijima truly identifies as an "Inatsume person".

If one day the "Eternal Paradise" of "Pure Land of One Heart" were to take in the people of Inazuma, the film would only expand its scope to the area from the northern part of Renren Island to the western part of Kannazuka.

The "Demon War" of that year was merely a war fought out of necessity, and had nothing to do with "conquest." For a thousand years, apart from fulfilling their duties to Sky Island and guarding the borders of the "Dark Outer Sea," Raiden Shin and Raiden Movie have never "conquered" the islands, much less fought for land.

Suppressing Orobas and teaching the sword-forging method using "crystallized marrow" was also only to prevent the "evil spirit" from harming Narukami Island—the dense fog of Tsurukan, the thunderstorms of Seirai, the "sanctification" of Umijima Island, etc. Since the "Great God of the World" is not involved, the movie will not overstep its bounds. Leaving a seal is already merciful. To interfere any further would be disrespectful to the "Great God of the World".

They do not want "eternity," so grant them "freedom."

Perhaps in the eyes of the "Great God of the Eternal World," these things are nothing more than a part of "eternity."

As for the small uprising recently launched by the islanders of Haizhi, and the foreign helpers they have brought in, such as the pirates of Liyue... the general doesn't care much about any of it.

Humans don't care about wars between ants—and they certainly won't randomly step on ants.

After all, even the life of an ant is nothing but a fleeting dream, a momentary descent like dew, born in the morning and dying in the evening, vanishing in an instant.

Ants cannot shake "eternity".

Besides, my sister... Raiden really liked humans when she was alive, and Raiden Movie doesn't want to interfere unless necessary.

Except for that one exception—the “Descendants”.

The "Descendant" is an existence that transcends the status of a demon god. It is a special case that is not affected by "predestined fate" and is also a variable that she must be careful about.

So she intervened and banished the blond traveler from Narukami Island.

Her warning was clear: surely that traveler wouldn't be foolish enough to come back and become a decoration on the idol?

If there is anything that could possibly shake the existence of "eternity," it would be the other six demon gods who are also among the "Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm."

Does the invasion of Skyhold by the Liyue people's fleet represent the will of the "God of Contracts"? General Thunder must find out.

That "successor of the Emperor" has already given her the answer.

His words, along with the "Heavenly Justice Will Prevail" banner on the ship, already demonstrated Morax's attitude.

If you want war, then let's fight.

In the "Pure Land of One Heart," Lei Yingdong, who was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, opened his eyes.

At the same time, behind the Thunder General standing in the air, a divine eye composed of lightning elements appeared.

A deity named Lei Movie unfolds a corner of the Pure Land.

Divine Transformation: The Eyes of Evil Radiance Open.

Chapter 171 Ominous Star and Wicked Star, A Single Strike Without Thought [4k]

"Pure Land of One Heart" is not a reality, but merely the consciousness space of the deity Lei Yingdian, manifested by her will.

When she meditated, the space was nothingness.

Without thoughts or desires, only focus on the mind.

As the master of "Pure Land of One Mind" opened his eyes, light, shadow, and concrete matter appeared in what had previously been a void—

The three-layered patterned ground spirals like a spiral, the dilapidated torii gates stand like towering trees, and... a red moon hangs high in the sky.

The red moon is spherical, covered with a rust-like brownish-red color, and has no other features except for the hill-like spherical protrusions on it.

Of course, if someone were to step onto that crimson moon, they would find that those protrusions were not the size of hills, but rather much larger.

After all, it was one of the Marches that once illuminated the night sky of Teyvat, and its size was at least that of an asteroid.

The crimson moon hovered within the "Pure Land of One Heart," silent and still, yet emanating an overwhelming and ominous aura of danger, like rolling thunder...

Then, the surface of the Crimson Moon suddenly changed.

It's moving.

A long, gaping hole appeared on its surface, forming a huge ravine resembling the "Shadowless Blade."

The crack is still widening.

But how could the surface of a planet move?

The surface of a planet doesn't crack randomly, much less split open for thousands of kilometers, exposing the pale, luminous material beneath the surface...

If someone is in a state of "pure mind," gazing up at the crimson moon, they will see—

That was an eye.

An eye with tears streaming down its face.

The Eye of Evil.

The evil star is the red moon.

In Teyvat, the red moon symbolizes calamity.

Five hundred years ago, on the day the ancient kingdom of Kanria was destroyed, a crimson moon hung high in the sky.

If we go back in time, every calamity in Teyvat's history has actually been foreshadowed by a red moon.

On the day the city of Juer, the residence of the "Red King" in the Sumeru Desert, was destroyed, a crimson moon appeared in the sky; when the ancient civilization of Remuria in Fontaine perished, an ominous red glow similarly spread across the land...

Therefore, in Teyvat legends, the Red Moon always appears as an "ominous star".

But as one of the "Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm" who had come into contact with the secrets of the heavens and had personally witnessed the descent of the Crimson Moon in Kanria, Ray Movie knew very well that the Crimson Moon was not just a harbinger or a symbol.

It is a force from outside the world.

It was also the strength she had been constantly yearning for and pursuing since her sister's death.

I want my sister to come back... I want Inazuma to remain forever in the most beautiful moment in my heart... I want to become an indestructible existence... No matter what I do, I need strength.

Even if it's a forbidden power that brings destruction, Lei Movie no longer cares.

The puppet technology of the "Black Sun Dynasty," the forbidden power of the "Red Moon Dynasty"... Lei Films is willing to pay any price.

Everything is for the sake of "eternity".

When an evil star opens its eyes, it brings calamity.

As the "eye" behind General Thunder appeared, Han Fulai inexplicably felt a gaze upon him.

The premonition that "something is coming" grew stronger and stronger.

This might be a human's instinct to sense danger, or it might be that his senses have become more acute after he mastered his immortal arts... In any case, this kind of "sixth sense" is reminding him that danger is coming.

So he raised his hands without hesitation.

With the backs of the hands facing outwards, the left hand's thumb and forefinger hold the four fingers of the right hand, and the right hand's thumb and forefinger hold the left thumb. Inside the palms, the left thumb pinches the base of the right ring finger, and the right thumb pinches the tip of the right middle finger. The hands are clasped together, resembling a gesture of respect.

In the eyes of the Inazuma family, this was probably Han Fulai bowing to the audience to take his leave after finishing his speech. They were more concerned about the ring on Han Fulai's left ring finger - a very beautiful diamond ring that even sparkled... Could it be a wedding ring?

If any Liyue sorcerers were present, they would know what was about to happen upon seeing Han Fulai's actions—Han Fulai's movements are known in Liyue sorcery as the "Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Linked Technique," which is the same technique used by Liyue sorcerers like Yelan when activating the Qimen Dunjia.

The Liyue Celestials' "divination" uses the palm as a substitute for the Qimen Dunjia divination board, with the four fingers representing the twelve Earthly Branches, to predict good and bad fortune. The base of the ring finger represents the "Zi" position in the Earthly Branches, and the tip of the middle finger represents the "Wu" position. Therefore, this method is also known as the "Zi-Wu Formula," meaning that the palm embraces Yin and Yang, calming the mind and warding off evil.

Almost at the same time that Han Fulai activated the formation, the Thunder General on the top of the castle tower also made his move.

She pulled a long sword from her chest.

A sword that has served two generations of rulers, witnessing time and eternity.

Its name is "True Fight, Dream One Heart".

Inazuma's swordsmiths have traditionally distinguished between "true katakana" and "shadow katakana"—names derived from Inazuma's twin demon gods.

Back then, the elder sister Raiden was the Shogun of the Shogunate, holding a prominent position, while the younger sister Raiden remained behind the scenes, active on the battlefield as a shadow warrior.

Thus, "True" and "Shadow" also became the titles of the sword inscription.

When a master craftsman forges a knife, the result of a single forging is more than one strike. The finest work is called "True Forging," and it is inscribed with this elegant name. It is then offered before the lord or the gods, thus refraining from committing any act of killing and maintaining its own purity.

The remaining knives were called "shadow knives," which were given to close ministers and used as weapons. They were often stained with blood and dirt.

For example, Iwazo Doin, the founder of the Iwazo school and the swordsman who created the secret sword "Tengu Shou," once asked the Tenmoku school swordsmith, one of the "Raiden Five Generations," to forge a sword for him.

The finished product forged by the Tenmoku family is called "Thin Edge Full Radiance Tenmoku," a rare and renowned sword comparable to the "Divine Sword," and it is still enshrined in the "Iwazo-ryu" dojo in Kujo Prefecture. The other swords produced in the same forge are called "Tenmoku Shadow Blade," and are used as personal swords by the disciples of the "Iwazo-ryu."

The "Dream of One Heart" sword in General Thunder's hand is a "real sword," and a truly "real sword"—it was personally crafted by the previous Thunder God, Thunder God Zhen, with his divine power.

This is an incomparably beautiful knife.

The long sword is pale purple, with a subtle, glass-like sheen on its blade.

It is like a morning glory flower, which is fragrant with crimson and purple when it blooms, and pure white when it closes.

Anyone who loves knives will be deeply attracted by its beauty.

But this beautiful knife was not sharpened.

Like master, like animal; lightning is not good at fighting, so it does not fight either.

It only symbolizes the power of the Shogun, as well as the benevolence and peace of the Shogun Raiden.

It wasn't until the day Raiden died that it was handed over to the Shadow.

On that day, the famous sword drank blood, and the first drop of blood fell from the tip of the blade, only to be dispersed by the raging wind and thunder.

Raiden named it "Dream Heart"—she wanted it to witness the beauty of Inazuma, as beautiful as a dream, and the noble heart that coexists with this world.

The film, which inherited the spirit of "one heart, one dream," did not change its name.

This is a tribute to my sister, and also because she once saw the same beautiful scenery... At the same time, it is also to make that beautiful scenery eternal, and to give rise to a purer and stronger "heart".

The aesthetics of lightning lies in capturing the fleeting, precious essence of life amidst the illusions of the world.

Then, let this beauty last forever.

Therefore, Ray Movies will not tolerate any enemy that threatens to destroy eternity.

"No thought, sever all!"

A hundred miles away, General Thunder swung his sword at Han Fulai.

A single, unintentional strike.

Beneath the sacred cherry tree, the beautiful priestess, as radiant as a cherry blossom, witnessed that slash.

It was less a knife and more a reflection of the light of day.

There is no sword in this world that is forty meters long, let alone a blade that is a hundred miles long.
