The Homeless Man of Teyvat

sky island,

Tianli opened his eyes and had no intention of turning around and looking back. There was calmness in his golden eyes: "You're here."

"Well, it seems like you've been waiting for me...for a long time?"

"It's just a trance, it doesn't last long."

"It's quieter here than I thought. Is there no one on the island?"

"I kept them out of the way in advance."

"That's no wonder."

Chen Tianfeng came to Tianli, stood still, looked at the seven illusory pillars, raised his eyebrows slightly, then looked away, and sat down cross-legged like Tianli, with the long knife across his legs.

"Want to play a game of chess?"

"Pointless."

"Make a pot of tea?"

"Pointless."

"Pouring wine and drinking?"

"Pointless."

"Then what makes sense?"

“Go straight to the topic and don’t waste time, it’s [meaningful].”

Tianli still looked at the illusory pillar and said: "Old god from another world, are you coming to Sky Island this time for Feng Dan's prophecy?"

"good."

Chen Tianfeng nodded and admitted frankly.

His purpose of coming to Sky Island had nothing to hide. In addition, after taking control of half of the world of Teyvat, he had a hunch that there was a high probability that there would be no conflict when he came to seek heavenly principles this time.

"Then, gods from other worlds..."

Tianli finally turned his gaze, his golden eyes reflected Chen Tianfeng's figure, and said: "Are you here for the Fengdan humans, or are you here for those pure water elves disguised as humans?"

A pure water elf disguised as a human?

Chen Tianfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and had several guesses in his mind, but none of them were sure: "What's the difference?"

"If it's the former, there will be no conflict between you and me. If it's the latter..."

Tianli paused and said seriously: "I have no choice but to decide the outcome with you, even if the world of Teyvat will be shattered as a result."

"Those pure water elves will soon become completely human. There is no difference between the two." Chen Tianfeng shook his head.

"No, there is a big difference. As long as those pure water elves are not completely transformed, they will become pollution, affecting the stability of the world of Teyvat."

Tianli turned his attention to the illusory pillar again and said: "Old gods from other worlds, you should know that I once led a demon war that swept the entire world, and thus selected seven earthly rulers... Then, do you know why I did this? ?”

Chen Tianfeng didn't answer, just listened quietly. Tianli didn't care whether he answered or not. He tacitly agreed not to leave any time for Chen Tianfeng to speak, and continued: "It is to gather faith and stabilize the world."

In the beginning, although the world of Teyvat was a little fragile, the overall framework was intact and there was no need to worry too much about repair and support.

Heaven created the gods and humans, carved the motto "God loves the world" deep in the soul of the demon god, and ordered the demon god to walk on the earth, protect humans, and collect faith.

Although the world at that time also had disputes, it was generally harmonious and beautiful. Unless there are special circumstances, even if there is a conflict between demon gods, an endless war between gods will not break out.

Heavenly principles reside high in the sky, and the normal operation of the world of Teyvat can be maintained by relying on the power of complex beliefs that are differentiated by the gods and vary in quantity, quality, and type.

But the good times didn't last long. After several battles whose scale exceeded what the world of Teyvat could bear, the world's framework became incomplete and almost completely shattered.

The huge but scattered beliefs of the past are no longer able to support the operation of the world.

Tianli divided the corpses of the defeated into seven parts, stripped off part of the ancient dragon's power, and created the Seven Gods' Throne and the Seven God's Hearts. What he did was to condense the many and messy beliefs of the past into seven strands, sacrifice quantity for quality, create seven pillars of the world, complete the framework, and continue the operation of the world.

So there was the Demon War.

So there were seven gods.

Gods occupy the position of God, and the Heart of God gathers together to collect faith, while the Eye of God is to help people with outstanding talents when they appear among humans, so as to obtain more pure faith. At the same time, this kind of help is not only for the power of faith but also for obtaining the [wishes] of the owner of the Eye of God.

Limited by the rules of the world of Teyvat, or limited by the rules of this star sea universe, the souls of all living beings are divided into three parts: [soul body], [memory] and [wishes].

Both belief and desire are born from the soul. From a certain perspective, desire and belief have many things in common. They can also be turned into pillars, and the effect is better than belief.

"The rules I created only apply to the beliefs of human beings. If the pure water elves are just pure water elves, their beliefs will not be gathered, and they will be safe in the world; if they become fully human, the power of faith collected will "

Tianli's tone was calm: "But Egolia's creation of humans was only half successful."

"So today's Fontaines are neither pure water elves nor humans. Their power of faith will be gathered, but they cannot be used. At the same time, it will pollute the pure power of faith, affecting the pillars of the world."

Chen Tianfeng sighed with emotion: "This is the [original sin] of Egolia and the people of Fontaine."

Tianli nodded and said: "So I made a prophecy to let the flood mixed with the original embryonic sea submerge Fengdan and bring everything back to normal."

Floods mixed with the original womb sea can dissolve humans disguised as pure water elves, but will not cause humans to die of suffocation. It can maximize the survival rate of normal humans while removing pollution.

"No, something doesn't make sense."

Chen Tianfeng thought for a moment and looked at Tianli: "If what you want is to get everything back on track, why not just wipe out all the humans transformed by pure water elves from the beginning, but go to great lengths to set up a prophecy?"

Tianli definitely has the ability to "rectify chaos" from the beginning. Even if he has not recovered from his old injuries in repeated battles, it is not something that a pure water elf can resist, not even with Egolia.

"Because when I decided to erase them, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the future."

Tianli's expression did not change at all, majestic and calm: "I see that if they are left temporarily, the second water god will use some means to pull an ancient dragon king with complete authority into the human camp - this is something I am happy to do. Seen.”

"But a quick glance couldn't let me see the specific moment when the ancient dragon king surrendered. Humans disguised as pure water elves cannot reproduce in normal ways and will inevitably squeeze the living space of human beings. The more they are, the fewer humans will be, which is the same as parasitism. No different.”

"And so there was a prophecy."

Tianli looked at Chen Tianfeng and said: "The time point for the outbreak of the flood is not set randomly, but when humans disguised as pure water elves account for half of the people of Fontaine, the predicted judgment will truly come. And this is also The limit of what I can endure.”

"I see."

Chen Tianfeng exhaled, "It's a very cold decision, but it's not a mistake - at least you won't think it is a mistake."

He paused, feeling that he had said nonsense, so he turned to look at the seven illusory pillars, focusing on the one with cracks: "This is the pillar formed by the faith of Fontaine Water God, right? It has turned into this Look, your concentration is really good.”

Chen Tianfeng praised, but did not notice the strangeness that flashed in Tianli's golden eyes, and continued: "But why are these pillars gray-white? Have you never thought of making them appear in different colors like the seven elements, so that they can be distinguished more easily? ?”

"They were indeed originally seven different colors, the same as the seven elements."

Tianli stared at Chen Tianfeng, as if saying, 'Who do you think caused them to look like this? ’, he said expressionlessly: “In addition, it is not the pillar of Fontaine, it represents the rice wife—the rice wife who has eaten the heart of God by you.”
