He changed Tiwat

The reason why the "Divine Cherry Blossom Great Purification" in the past could not cure the root cause was that the Divine Cherry Blossom Tree could only absorb the filth, but could not purify it.

This is similar to surgically removing a tumor, but the cancer cells in the body will still proliferate, eventually leading to a larger tumor. To completely cure it, "targeted drugs" must be used to precisely cut out all the "cancer cells" deeply embedded in the cherry tree.

Only Lei Film, who has mastered the "unthinking scalpel," possesses this "surgical knife."

However, this method places very high demands on Lei Yingdian, the "chief surgeon".

This is equivalent to Yao Ying continuously unleashing the "Unthinking Blade" with all his might, using the power to shatter the void to send the evil and filth to the outside of the "False Heaven".

The "Unthinking Slash" is a powerful move that can't be used to land as many slashes as you want—the shadow might be the first to fall.

...But she is a ridiculous movie that promises its subjects a dream.

She is the kind of person who can "face the wall" for hundreds of years in the "Pure Land of One Heart" and fight against the puppet general for hundreds of years.

As long as it's for Inazuma, even if it wears her body down to nothing, she will carry on this will until eternity.

Lei Movie only replied with four words: "Leave it to me."

She once again took up the "light of rice from the Nagi grass".

Han Fulai shook his head at this moment: "No, General, it's not this sword—you should use the 'Dream of One Heart' sword that your sister left you."

Both the divine child and the shadow glanced sideways. Would it make any difference which sword they used?

“This is very important.” Han Fulai’s expression was very serious. “Your sister left that sword to you, which should not be as simple as just passing on the power of the Shogun.”

“I’ve heard you say that the sword was a divine weapon personally crafted by His Highness. Because His Highness dislikes fighting, the sword was never sharpened and was never used as a weapon by His Highness.”

"Later, Her Highness met with misfortune in Kanria. On her deathbed, she entrusted the 'Dream Heart' to you, and at the same time, she entrusted her consciousness space to the 'Dream Heart'."

"You rushed back to Inazuma with His Highness's dying consciousness and arrived at Mount Kageshiro, only to find that the consciousness space residing in the sword had suddenly disappeared, and a divine cherry tree that you had never seen before had appeared on the top of Mount Kageshiro. You have always suspected that His Highness's consciousness has transformed into the divine cherry tree to protect Inazuma."

Ying nodded silently. These were all facts, and they had happened not long ago; they were facts she still remembered vividly.

Han Fulai's expression became even more serious. For him, this was the most important part of the plan, or rather, the success of his plan depended entirely on that "Dream One Heart".

"Your sister, Raiden Shin, was the first of the 'Seven Rulers of the Mortal World,' and also the 'Goddess of Life' who held a portion of the power over life. Many secrets about her remain unsolved... For example, how did she bring you back to life when the 'Seven Rulers of the Mortal World' were appointed on Sky Island..."

“I suspect that the power of the ‘Time Ruler’ Ishtar is actually residing within her, or something similar that can influence time and space. This divine cherry tree that you don’t remember but suddenly appeared in front of you is very likely related to the power of the ‘Time Ruler’.”

"If I'm not mistaken, then the 'Dream of One Heart' that your sister left you is the key to Inazuma's 'phoenix rebirth'!"

Chapter 251 Delayed Choice, Quantum Erasure [4k]

"'One Dream'... can make Inazuma 'rise from the ashes'?" Lei Movie frowned.

The "phoenix rebirth" is just a legend on Earth, but it is a real phenomenon on the continent of Teyvat—the deceased Narutoki of Liyue was a descendant of the "Phoenix".

There is indeed such a legend that the phoenix gathers fragrant wood and burns itself every five hundred years, then is reborn from the ashes... However, that is only because immortals have long lifespans. Mortals saw the phoenix perched on the parasol tree and spread its wings like flames, so they associated it with the idea that the phoenix could be reborn from fire.

Lei Yingdian naturally understood Han Fulai's metaphor; he meant to eliminate the filth and allow Inazuma to be reborn.

But this metaphor isn't exactly a good one; after all, "phoenix rebirth" requires first setting oneself on fire...

Moreover, "Dream One Heart" does not have such an ability.

After Kanria received the "Dream Heart" from her sister, Shadow examined the artifact countless times, hoping to find the will left behind by her sister.

Divine power, consciousness, or even just a hidden note...

Unfortunately, I didn't leave anything for my sister in "Dream Heart".

It was merely a divine sword, a "ritual object".

It symbolizes Shin's belief in peace and the authority of the Inazuma Shogun, but that's all.

Besides, it can't even be considered a proper "weapon"—after all, it's not even sharpened.

Later, when the Shadow wielded this sword in battle, he relied on his own strength. In terms of weapon power alone, it's not only inferior to "Naginata no Inamitsu," but it's likely even weaker than "Hawaiizuki no Tsukihime" or "Kirigiri no Kaiko"...

Han Fulai said that the key to saving Inazuma was hidden in that knife, but Lei Movie couldn't see it at all.

“Yes, this is the last and most crucial step—” Han Fulai’s expression remained serious, and every word he spoke was crystal clear: “After you have removed the evil filth, please use that ‘Dream of One Heart’ to slash the Divine Cherry Tree with ‘A Single Slash of No Thought’.”

Ying was taken aback at first, then immediately objected: "No way!"

The Divine Cherry Tree is connected to the Inazuma ley lines. Destroying the Divine Cherry Tree is equivalent to destroying the Inazuma ley lines, which is essentially "suicide."

The "replacing the old with the new" strategy that Han Fulai mentioned earlier is indeed a feasible way to eliminate evil and filth, but this "phoenix rebirth" undoubtedly means that she would personally destroy Inazuma with her own hands... How could she do such a thing?

The divine child seemed to have realized something: "'Phoenix Nirvana' means 'rebirth from the ashes.' You want Shadow to destroy the current Divine Cherry Tree so that it can be 'reborn'?"

“That’s right.” Han Fulai nodded and said, “Even if we completely remove the evil filth that we carry, it may not be enough. No one knows if there is still evil filth hidden in Inazuma’s ley lines… No, it should be said that there is definitely still hidden filth that has not been removed. To solve the filth once and for all, we must ‘cut the weeds and remove the roots’.”

His reasoning for this judgment was simple: the pollution of the Inazuma ley lines came not only from the filth that the divine child extracted from the "Pure Land of One Heart," but also from the filth that invaded Inazuma from the "Dark Calamity."

At that time, a large number of monsters invaded Inazuma from the "Dark Outer Sea," and the problem still exists today. No one can guarantee that there are no monsters that have escaped. The same goes for the filth left in the ley lines.

Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.

Even if they can remove all the known evil influences, what about the unknown ones?

Han Fulai's solution was "destroy before building": first, completely destroy the divine cherry tree that was filled with evil spirits and filth, and then plant a new one.

To put it bluntly, it means replacing everything, including the "cage" and the "bird".

Throughout history, the oldest and most effective way to deal with plagues has been to burn everything contaminated with the plague—that's what the "Homa Staff" in Liyue's Hall of Resurrection is for.

According to Ying's understanding, Han Fulai's extermination strategy was to first divide and devour the enemy, and then concentrate forces to wipe out the remaining enemy in one fell swoop, achieving victory in one battle... She could certainly understand the principles of military strategy.

The problem is...

"You, can create a new Divine Cherry Tree?" Ying looked at Han Fulai with a stern expression.

If Han Fulai cannot do it, then this so-called "phoenix rebirth" is nothing more than a foolish strategy of perishing together with the enemy.

To be honest, even if Ying Neng completely believed that Han Fulai was a time traveler from 500 years in the future, he still couldn't believe that he had the ability to recreate a divine cherry tree.

When and how did the Divine Cherry Tree appear?

Who planted it, and how did it grow?

Why does it have the magical ability to absorb filth?

These are questions that even a ridiculous movie five hundred years later couldn't figure out, let alone this ridiculous movie now.

Perhaps all of this has something to do with her older sister, Raiden Shin... However, this is just speculation. Shin has never mentioned the Divine Cherry Tree to her, not a single word.

During her journey to Kanria, it was this suddenly appearing divine cherry tree that protected Inazuma. According to Han Fulai and the Divine Child, this divine cherry tree will continue to protect Inazuma for the next five hundred years. Therefore, the handling of this tree must be done with utmost care.

In response to Ying's question, Han Fulai shook his head again: "No, I can't do it. Only you and Prince Raiden can recreate the Divine Cherry Tree."

"...Me and...my sister?" Lei Yingdian was taken aback.

How could she not know that she could create the Divine Cherry Tree?

And my sister is already...

Han Fulai stared intently at Lei Yingdian: "It depends on whether you, General, are willing to believe—believe that your sister, Princess Raiden, is still alive. I have said this since the beginning of our meeting: I have come not only to save the Divine Child and Inazuma, but also to save you and your sister."

"You're saying... my sister is still alive!?"

Lei's voice trembled.

For the first time in thousands of years, the hand that held the knife loosened.

The "Naginata no Inari" suddenly fell to the ground, but Lei Movie was completely unaware.

She gripped Han Fulai's shoulders tightly with both hands, as if afraid he would suddenly disappear.

Say it again!

Han Fulai felt a sharp pain in his shoulder blade. In his desperation, Lei Yingdong didn't care how much force he used. If it weren't for the fact that his physique was different now, Lei Yingdong probably could have really crushed his shoulder bone.

But he did his best to remain calm and repeated to the shadow, word by word: "...I said, Prince Raiden is still alive."

"Where is she?!" Lei Yingdian's voice became even more anxious.

Meanwhile, a creaking sound came from Han Fulai's shoulders.

He could only painfully glancing at Ying's chest.

"Dreams are one" has always been hidden in the heart.

Ying finally understood what he meant and pulled the "Dream One Heart" sword from her chest.

The divine child quickly helped Han Fulai, who had been freed from Ying's "clutches," and gently massaged his shoulders with some concern, while whispering a complaint to him: "Never breathe heavily when talking to Ying, or she'll make it hard for you to breathe..."

Han Fulai could only smile wryly, while deeply realizing that the Shadow of five hundred years later had truly become "very easy to talk to".

"Speaking of which... is His Highness really still alive?" the Divine Child asked again in a low voice.

Actually, she didn't really believe Han Fulai's explanation—in her understanding, Han Fulai's statement about "saving Raiden Shin" when he met Ying was just a way to get a chance to speak.

The saying goes, "If you want to open a window, you have to first remove the roof," and this has always been Yue Haiting's method.

When the topic shifted to "saving Inazuma," the most important thing was naturally taken care of first, and Kage didn't pursue his earlier little lie.

But she didn't expect that Han Fulai was serious when he said that.

"Yes, His Highness may still be alive... Although it's just my guess, it's certainly a possibility..."

Han Fulai was unable to finish explaining to Shenzi, because the next moment Ying held up the "Dream Together" sword in front of him.

"I can't sense my sister's presence! Tell me quickly, where is she?"

There was a hint of tears glistening in Ying's eyes.

The Shadow standing before them now was nothing like a battle-hardened general; she was nothing more than a little girl lost from her family… Whenever her sister was involved, Shadow would lose her composure.

Han Fulai understood Ying's feelings. The word "love" has such power that even demons cannot escape it.

He raised his hand and grasped the hand holding the sword: "She's right here."

“Although you cannot sense it, Her Highness’s consciousness resides in this ‘Dream Heart’. She, like the Divine Cherry Tree, has now become a higher-dimensional being, and we, who are in a lower-dimensional world, cannot contact her.”

"But she left you a clue—this 'Dream One Heart'."

"I once heard a prophecy from Lord Barbatos of Mondstadt: 'The future saves the past.'"

"If you can unleash the power of 'dreams' and use the 'future' to save the 'past,' His Highness will be able to appear and meet you."

During his "trials" on the nameless isle of Mondstadt, he had heard a prophecy left by a "prophet" named "N":

"The beginning reversed destruction, and the Sky Isle burned the Earth Kingdom. Chalk chased after Gold, and the Crimson Moon avenged the Black Sun. The Future saved the Past, and the Elder and the Young fought each other with blood. — This is the cyclical fate of the world."

Wendy later explained it to him like this:

“Ishtar left many ‘seeds of time’ on this continent. You passed my trial, and I have given you the mark of time. With the mark of time, you will be able to see the traces left by Ishtar.”

"So, what you need to do next is to find those traces. Hmm, I can give you a direction—Inazuma, which is known as the 'Eternal Kingdom'. 'Eternity' is a concept closely related to time. Once you touch upon eternity, the concept of time becomes blurred... That's where Ishtar left the most seeds, the 'White Night Kingdom' is also in Inazuma."

"Also, remember this: your 'words of power' come from your 'will.' Inazuma is probably the most suitable country for you to 'practice your own way.' Use your 'will' to change the world, young man."

He has now seen many traces left by Ishtar.

"The Thousand-Handed, Hundred-Eyed Statue".

The mysteriously appearing "divine cherry tree".

The "consciousness space" left behind by lightning.

Everything is closely related to the concept of "time".

The prophecy of "the future saving the past" is also related to "time".

Wendy inherited some of Ishtar's powers, and the hints he gave can largely be regarded as true "prophecies".

The key to saving the past from the future lies in... using his "will" to change the world.

As a time traveler who knows of the existence of the "False Heaven" and is determined to be a "butterfly" that stirs up a storm, Han Fulai has already thought about how to use his "will" to "change the world".

Ying didn't quite understand what Han Fulai meant by "higher dimensions" and "lower dimensions," as well as "the power of dreams" and "the future saving the past," but his gentle and warm voice soothed her anxious heart.

It's as if his voice has a bewitching magic, making people unconsciously want to believe.

Or rather, she actually hoped that everything he said was true.

She had always hoped that someone would tell her that she was still alive.

Ying lowered her head, silently looking at the beautiful long sword in her hand, as if trying to find her sister's familiar face in it... but the sword only reflected her own face.

Although that face was almost identical to her sister's, it was ultimately not her sister.

After a long pause, she finally composed herself: "I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now. Han Qing, please tell me, how can I unleash the power of 'dreams'?"

The goddess looked at him with the same expectant expression. To her, Raiden Shin was like an older sister. If possible, she naturally hoped that her older sister Shin could be resurrected.
