Chapter 1: Stars in the wasteland, shining like the blazing sun
In the evening, Goshen Hall.
After writing the last word in the elegiac couplet, Zhongli put down the brush in his hand and took a short rest. As a guest of the Past Life Hall, although this kind of thing can be done by other people in the Past Life Hall, there is nothing wrong with him. Besides, this old man is Liyue.
He had made considerable contributions, so it was natural for him to send him off on his last journey with his own hands.
Suddenly, Zhongli felt unusual fluctuations coming from his cave.
"This is?"
Zhongli stood up from the chair and walked to the open space in front of the table. The space showed a whirlpool distortion. When the space returned to normal, Zhongli's figure disappeared into the room. Only the words on the table were left, and there was no one there.
slowly solidified in the sunset.
At this moment, an object emitting golden light floated in front of Zhongli. The white-gold hexagonal frame wrapped the center of the golden-brown cube. Before that, it was just floating here quietly. But at this moment, Zhongli felt it.
The fluctuations it transmits, one after another, are just like the beating of the heart. Along with the fluctuations, there is also the light that it emits that alternates between dark and bright.
The Lock of the Earthly World is the only thing that still exists in the world that was handed down from the Demon God of Earth thousands of years ago. Every time he sees it, the girl with wide sleeves among the glazed flowers will appear in Zhongli's mind. But so does the Demon God.
You will die, and no matter how long your life is, it will eventually come to an end, just like the old man Zhongli sent away just now.
After all, he is dead. This is a fact, and Zhongli has personally witnessed it. So what is going on with the fluctuation at this time? After all, he is resurrected? Zhongli knows that is impossible. Death is the final destination of any life.
High-concentration element crystals have the possibility of giving birth to elemental life, which Zhongli fully understands, because his best friend is the creature created by element crystals.
The Earthly Lock contains most of the elemental energy before death. High concentrations of rock elements are concentrated together. After thousands of years of gestation, the possibility of life is finally born.
But it’s not enough. The current lock of the world only contains the possibility of giving birth to life, just like an egg. But for an egg to hatch a new life, a single egg is not enough. (Everyone knows this, so I will.
I won’t go into details...)
Looking at the earthly lock in front of him, for some reason, the scene he saw that day emerged in Zhongli's mind. A businessman said to his worker: "You have completed your duties very well. Now, go and have a rest."
." Zhongli has decided to relinquish his responsibilities, but there is no suitable opportunity yet. Is Liyue ready to usher in the godless era? These are still unclear.
But what is certain is that Liyue can be without gods, but it cannot be without power. As a god who emerged from the war between demons and gods, it is impossible for Zhongli not to know the importance of power. But can the people and immortals in Liyue reach a consensus?
Form a unified external force?
Thinking of this, Zhongli stretched out his hand and grasped the Earthly Lock that was glowing in the air.
Stratified rock abyss.
Zhongli holds the lock of the world in his hand and stands in the abyss of the rocky abyss. This is the closest place to the depths of the earth. The surging energy of the earth seems to be breaking out of the ground at any time. Zhongli's bright dragon pupils are emitting light, in the dark
It is bright and visible at night, as if the first ray of light from ancient times illuminated a newly created world.
"Okay, let me help you with the last one." Zhongli looked at the Earthly Lock in his hand, and the power deep in the earth's veins was condensed by him. It followed the Liyue earth and gathered on Zhongli's body. Then, Zhongli will
His own power and the power of the earth's veins were channeled into the earthly lock in his hand.
The Earthly Lock, which merged the energy of Zhongli, Guiwen, and the earth's veins, flew high into the sky. The bright light illuminated most of the sky in Liyue, but this light was blocked by Zhongli's power in Tianheng Mountain and did not disturb Liyue.
People in Moon Harbor.
Finally, the bright light began to shrink, and the earthly locks melted like ice cream under the high summer temperature. The fused elemental energy slowly deformed, and finally condensed into a new form.
As the saying goes, "Stars are born in the wasteland, shining like the blazing sun. The sky moves and everything appears, and the mountains and seas change into shapes."
Zhongli flew into the air, caught the newborn little one, and covered her with the clothes he had prepared long ago. As soon as he took it, Zhongli felt something was wrong. After hugging the little one, Zhongli actually felt that
The wear and tear on the soul has slowed down a bit.
"This?" Zhongli looked at the little guy in his arms, "Maybe you can really bring about changes, but you are far more than just Liyue."
