Chapter 2

The actions of these two harbingers made Glasya both angry and helpless while stunning all the other harbingers.

Meanwhile, in Inazuma, Baal was awakened from her eternal meditation. A quick reflection on her actions and all the information that she received from the Shogun made her have a small amount of confidence that she did nothing wrong.

' Unless the vision hunt decree is considered wrong. ' Thought Ei to herself silently, visions where, after all, something that Celestia have gifted to the mortals.

In Fontaine, Focalors had a worried expression on her face, after all, her plan made her have a very big guilty conscience, she planned to trick the heavenly principle and pass the Hydro authoritie to a dragon, the enemy of the heavenly principle.

In Liyue Harbor, Morax was enjoying some folklore stories when he saw that the sky darkened.

He was momentarily startled before he began to observe the power realesed from the heavenly principle.

Although Morax had the plan to give Liyue to the supervision of both the humans and the Adepti, that would only be under the assumption that the heavenly principle is sleeping or dead, even his contract with Glasya was under the same assumption, but the power that heavenly principle was realizing was far stronger than the last time he saw her, and there was something different about it, something dark and ominous.

' If we follow the logical thinking, the world after the Cataclysm was under the corruption of the Abyss, which made the world's vitality lower and lower, as a result, the heavenly principle strength should also be greatly weakened, or even falling into the Abyss. After all, the heavenly principle's strength is greatly tied to the world. But the darkness that I feel from her isn't harming the world but seems to bring a mouthful of vitality to the world, how intriguing... '

Morax wasn't the only one who had observed such a change, from within the world tree Irminsul, the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, the Godess of Wisdom, currently in a child form, had access to all that happened in the world from before the first light till this day. So the moment she felt darkness from within her power, she made a hypothesis based on all that knowledge.

' The World have experienced the disaster of the fallen dragon Nibelung which shattered the earth and the sky, it was also the first time the world have experienced the Abyss. After that, the heavenly principle emerged victorious and kept the world from completely falling apart, but all knowledge of that time became forbidden. The Abyss was weirdly chased out of Teyvat. Then third descent who allied with the three moon goddesses and a bunch of humans that betrayed the heavenly principle, in the end, the heavenly principle have also won, although the world was damaged their was no record of the existence of the Abyss, but the first curse of wilderness was observed, the Hilichurls, after that be it the war against the seven sovereign dragons or the great Archon war, the Abyss have never existed untill five hundred years ago.

The only thing that had changed was the fact that she gave the seven Archons the authority to stabilize the Ley lines, If she have been busy with mending the damage of all the battles and making a natural defense against the Abyss, it will explain why she gave the Archons the authority to stabilize the Ley lines.

If so, it will also mean that the darkness element is the path that the second throne tried to partake in but failed. ' Once she reached that point, she immediately understood several of her orders and Taboos. ' She forbid all life from touching the Abyss not because of fear but because she understood better than anyone else how dangerous it was for Teyvat. '

At that moment, Phanes completely ignored the mental struggle that the Archons were having but continued in her thoughts.

' In the end, I needed to support and supplement the world with a divinity or path that didn't exist in it, but also that was beneficial while dealing with the Abyss. So I devised a plan that will make it possible for me to do that without worrying about the world suddenly collapsing. It was chaos, nourishment, stability, and lastly, prosperity.

The chaos is how I put a big amount of my power in the birth of several gods, the nourishment is the great Archon war that sent the godheads back to the Ley lines as a supplement, the stability is the era of the seven great Archons, then as long as I succeed, the world will have a new element with the ability to not only resist the erosion of the Abyss, but also transform the abyss into elemental power after a long time.

Soon, the world will be able to survive and evolve. '

Reaching that stage, she raised her palm and conjured the darkness element. Its color was extremely dark, like the night in a moonless sky, with no stars shining in it, radiating negative emotions to all that see it, bringing the worst in all of life.

Phanes played with it for a while, making it in the form of spears, swords, knives... She then tried to focus the emotions by making the darkness element reflect solely a single negative feeling which was a quick success, curiously, she can also absorbed the negative emotions without any lasting effects, bringing a truly blessed night.

Once Phanes played enough, which was just some minutes, she focused her attention on one of her shadows, the maintainer of the heavenly principle, the Godess of Space Asmodeus.

Her eyes softened for a moment before she teleported her to her laps, hugging her from behind.

She gently put her palm between her breasts before sucking the Abyssal energy from her body.

In the past, such an action will be considered suicidal for her, but with the darkness element as both a filter and a converters, she break down the Abyss and refine it into three parts, darkness element, pure elemental energy, and lastly miasma.

The latter was immediately sent by her to the Ley lines in order to be filtration and purified.

' The Hilichurls' were a good idea, as long as there is miasma they are born, and when they are killed, a small part became pure elemental energy. The rest is miasma. And the cycle repeats itself. '

It barely took a minute before Asmodeus eyes began to twitch.
