The fire collided with the stubborn rocks, causing a fierce roar.
The dazzling aurora pierced the sky, and the halberd formed by the gathering of black fire was like a mountain. It struck hard at the solid shield made of rock until the earth shook and the mountains shook. Even the oppressive sky flashed with blazing light. light.
"Have you ever thought that using the power of the abyss so unscrupulously will wake up the sleepers in the sky."
Zhongli propped up the rock shield to hold the dark spear swung by Famas. He flipped the blade of Kaifeng backwards and turned the sword ridge out in front of him to block the black sparks caused by the collision of the attack.
Listening to the golden man's warning words, Famas brandished his spear and halberd to fight back, and the flames as black as ink danced, making him look particularly terrifying.
"Wendy told me that since the destruction of Kanria, the Heavenly Law has never summoned the Seven Earthly Gods again."
"Presumably the king of Camrya, Yin Erming, who inherited all the war legacies of Munata, must have used the last secret weapon of the [Golden Alliance] before losing power, right?"
"That is...the ultimate crystallization of non-element technology and primitive alchemy."
The young man smiled and told his speculations about history, but the spear in his hand never stopped, and the surging power of the abyss had solidified.
Many Liyue ancient books record rumors of the emperor sweeping the four directions and condensing rock spears to suppress the demon gods, in order to show the mercy of the Rock King emperor and his unwillingness to cause too many killings due to disputes over ideas.
But only the god himself knows that sealing and defeating the devil is really a last resort.
The lifespan of gods is extremely long, and it is even more difficult to completely obliterate powerful demon gods. Even the games and battles between the gods are often calculated in terms of years.
The reason why the Demon God War is called the most brutal wear and tear on the Teyvat continent is because the Demon Gods involved had to fight with all their strength. They faced not only the conquest of territory and power, but also the conflict between different faiths.
This demon will not come to its final end until the settlement he established is completely destroyed, or until the humans under his rule change the gods they worship.
Therefore, in the ancient times, massacres and plunder were not uncommon, which was also the biggest reason for the sharp decline in population.
Zhongli made up his mind to seal Famas again, and with the bright divine power attached to his arm, he tried his best to resist the young man's sharp slash.
"boom!"
The dark spear moved up and down, and in the competition of strength, Morax was ultimately at a disadvantage, but the emperor still shot the divine power on his arm into rock ridges at Famas at the moment when the two forces collided with each other.
But before the rock edge could get closer, the black fire roared and swallowed up the scattered divine attacks.
The sheer destructiveness of the abyss was clearly revealed, and Zhongli was shocked to discover that he was gradually losing control of the rock elements in the earth's veins.
The flame of losing faith should have been extinguished, but under the erosion of the abyss, a sudden light of sky that had never been seen before bloomed, as if it evoked the most powerful heat of the scorching sun.
The spear faced the emperor and descended boldly.
"Come here to welcome the dawn!"
The criss-crossing rock pillars were cut in half and collapsed along the slope. The black spear tip split all creation into two with the cruelty of devouring all things. The collapsed rock pillars hit the wind barrier held up by Wendy, making a whole sound. A deafening roar.
The power that belongs exclusively to the scorching sun overlaps with the abyss at this moment.
Zhongli watched as the collapsed rubble spread toward the earth's veins. The rock light scattered into mist, and was annihilated by the power of the spear like wind and clouds.
Although the contract to end everything has taken effect, he is still the god of Liyue. He should witness the rise and fall of mankind, and he also has the responsibility to protect the thousands of people in Liyue.
"The heavens are moving!"
The black gold rock star suddenly fell, and the sky shook like a hanging curtain. The emperor who once subdued the demon with a rock gun finally went all out at this moment, and the surging rock elements gathered, shaking even the Tianheng Mountains.
But the fierce fire of the abyss is so cold, constantly twisting everything it touches, enough to make anyone who faces it feel terrified.
The flames are like an orderly army, reminding people instinctively of the legacy of the soldiers who died in the Liyue War that just ended:
【We are born to pursue brilliance, like sparks flying upward. 】
Countless rolling pillars of fire protruded from the heart of the flames and climbed up Famas's arms, absorbing the boy's gradually declining divine power.
The dark spear became even hotter and more vigorous at the sharp point, and the originally eye-catching black flame took on an inexplicable color, shining with indigo light as bright as crow feathers.
The spear collided with the star, and the huge impact caused a moment of wabi silence in the sky, and everything lost its sound.
Time seemed to be stretched continuously until the sharp spear tip shattered the numerous rock shields and penetrated the human figure in the endless rock light.
"you……"
The emperor's molten gold hole continued to enlarge, and he raised his hand to hold the handle of the gun that had passed through his back. The pain that he had not felt for hundreds of years climbed up his spine and gradually drove to his limbs.
In front of him were Famas's onyx-like eyes, and the dark fire that was constantly boiling and rising.
The erosion of the abyss was faster than expected, the roaring fire was like a sword blade cutting across his face, Zhongli's movements gradually became slower, and thousands of thoughts were churning in his chest.
He never thought that Famas would take the risk of being noticed by heaven, and forcefully use the power that has the same source as gold, regardless of the abyss' wear and tear on the gods' intelligence.
The severed rock pillars were still resonating, and elemental crystals of different colors scattered from the sky, including fragments that condensed the power of the abyss.
Impurities were slowly removed from the pitch-black abyss crystal by resonance, revealing a shimmer as bright as a star.
But Famas pulled out the spear blade as if he didn't hear it, his arm with black veins wrapped in dark fire, and then pointed the spear at Zhongli's broken body again, and the surging divine power shattered the amber jade peak.
"Famas...no!"
The girl's bell-like shout sounded in the distance, and the traveler who broke through the fire element shield arrived belatedly.
Fluorescence can purify the erosion from the abyss, but it cannot easily destroy the fire prison condensed by pure elemental power.
After noticing the traveler, Zhongli hesitated for a moment, then used the uncorrupted divine power in his body to forcibly cut off the tough wind threads and move the Heart of God to the center of the battlefield.
The dark spear tip happened to hit the bright golden chess piece.
"Kacha."
Fine cracks slowly appeared on the radiant Heart of God, causing Famas' attack to freeze as if frozen.
"Research has proven that the container called [Heart of God] is a symbol of the maintainer's control over all laws and authority, and it is also the prison of the abyss."
Inhart's words from thousands of years ago still seemed to be echoing in his ears, but Famas and Zhongli, who were closest to the core, had been knocked away by the strong repulsion at the same time.
The coercion from the sky suddenly descended, bursting out in all directions from the sharp edge that tore apart all things. Even the high-altitude gods trembled and crouched in response to it. The black fire that flew out suddenly stagnated in the air, waiting for the judgment to come.
The constantly falling rocks shook the wind barrier that held up the sky, and familiar blood-red squares emerged out of thin air, annihilating everything around them.
Suddenly, Zhongli seemed to see the glazed lilies that filled the mountains and fields when Guiliyuan was prosperous, as well as the wide-sleeved girl who was as excited as a deer.
A tarnished stone lock quietly appeared on Famas's waist and flew towards the black and red square.
