Just as many powerhouses had varying expressions, Great Compassion Tree King Buyer and the Abyss Prince, Aether, also reacted differently...
As early as when Celestia summoned the Seven Aratama of the World for a meeting, Aether, as the Abyss Prince, had already detected an anomaly.
However, as Aether, who contained the power of the Abyss, he was excluded from the Teyvat World system; he couldn't even hear the conversations between Great Compassion Tree King and the world.
Moreover, Celestia was not something he could currently peer into.
"Your Highness, my subordinate has already detected the anomaly of the Raiden Shogun in Inazuma. The Raiden Shogun is enraged; she has personally taken up her blade and is slaughtering in Inazuma!"
An Abyss Apostle, missing a left leg and a right arm, still had faint streaks of lightning flickering and spreading over his body. A bloody killing intent materialized from the lightning, a resolute intent to slaughter all things.
The Abyss Apostle, Yuan Shang, said with a hint of relief after escaping death, "Raiden Shogun Baal Zebub has almost gone mad. She not only personally killed over 100,000 Inazuman dignitaries, but even a Fatui Harbinger has permanently fallen on that land!"
"If it weren't for the preparations I left in the Abyss, I probably would have been torn apart by the Raiden Shogun!"
Aether looked at the lightning on Yuan Shang's body, his expression solemn as he tried to erase it.
However.
A power completely opposite to the usual Raiden Shogun's Musou no Hitotachi sword intent transformed into a terrifying sword light that killed all things, directly slashing towards Aether!
Boom!
A bloody streak of lightning also followed, carrying an unavoidable will, crashing down into the Abyss.
Pfft~
"The Raiden Shogun is indeed insane!"
Aether emerged from a mountain peak shattered into dust by the lightning, with even traces of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
Only then did many Abyss Apostles react, quickly rushing forward to dig their Prince out of the rubble.
"This time, I underestimated Beelzebul's power, but the Raiden Shogun's attack from afar cannot defeat me!"
Although Aether appeared composed on the surface, his heart was extremely heavy at this moment.
The power of this Raiden Shogun, who had cast off all restrictions, was simply too exaggerated!
Aether now somewhat understood why the Heavenly Principles would impose the law of erosion on the Teyvat World!
Without this law, who knew to what terrifying extent the power of those ancient Archons would swell.
It's possible that if they lived for a few more millennia, the Teyvat World would directly shatter in the chaotic wars of the Archons!
Now, Beelzebul was the best example.
When she completely disregarded erosion, no longer expending most of her power to suppress the pressure of erosion...
Aether could feel that Beelzebul's power was already extremely close to the shadows of the four Heavenly Principles.
In fact, as the Raiden Shogun, who was extremely skilled in killing, she might even be able to directly counter-kill a Sustainer of Heavenly Principles!
Upon reaching this conclusion, Aether was utterly stunned!
If the Raiden Shogun could achieve this level, it meant that the Anemo Archon and Geo Archon of the same level would not be far behind!
Aether, forcibly calming himself, frowned and asked, "What is the situation with my sister, Lumine? Where is she now? What is she doing?"
For Aether, nothing in Teyvat was more important than his sister.
In this period of intense upheaval, he had to clearly ascertain Lumine's movements.
The Electro Abyss Lector, Onall, quickly stepped forward to report, "Your Highness, the Princess's movements have also been very strange recently."
"Oh? How strange?"
Aether frowned, feeling that everything had been going wrong lately.
"The Princess had originally been traveling through the Seven Aratama of the World as planned, but not long ago, for some unknown reason, she disrupted her steps and suddenly went to Sumeru."
The Electro Abyss Lector, Onall, also found it quite strange: "Then, immediately after arriving in Sumeru, the Princess seemed to have received some news. After mastering the Dendro element, she hastily left and quickly collected the remaining missing elemental powers."
"Finally, after mastering all seven elements, the Princess returned to Liyue and found a Liyue Adeptus, and is currently performing a strange ritual..."
The more Aether listened, the stranger he felt: "What kind of ritual is it?"
"It is said to be an ancient ritual of transferring luck."
Onall pondered for a moment, somewhat bewildered, then described the scene at the time in detail: "Moreover, at that time, the Princess kept mumbling something like,'Stay away from the unlucky, smuggle into the European server, success or failure depends on this one move...'"
"Huh?"
Onall didn't understand what this sentence meant, but how could Aether not understand?
"It seems Lumine has somehow learned some information that I don't know about?"
From Lumine's series of actions, although Aether had some doubts, he was certain that Lumine definitely knew a lot of things!
"It seems the situation has changed; I must go and make contact with Lumine..."
After a long while, Aether's low murmur echoed in the Abyss... Sumeru.
Buyer walked in silence through this rainforest where dense foliage covered the sky.
Everywhere she looked, it was green, still that familiar appearance.
So familiar... that it made Buyer feel strange, even absurd!
"In those years, during my reign, how prosperous was Sumeru? The Akademiya was a gathering of elites, and every Grand Sage was wise and accomplished, a true sage. But now..."
Buyer felt the mixed faith and wishes on the land of Sumeru, and the Akademiya was even more like an abyss, nauseating!
Interacting with Sumeru through her perception, the number of her kin, the Aranara, pained her even more!
And Nahida... she was her other half, the new sprout she had planted to protect Sumeru in the past!
But she was still imprisoned in the Sanctuary of Surasthana!
Although Nahida's status was not yet comparable to hers, she was still a legitimate Archon!
If she truly wanted to escape, it wouldn't be effortless, but she could easily think of a dozen ways.
However, Nahida was a newly born, young Archon. She was trapped in the Sanctuary of Surasthana right after her birth, completely lacking a process of mental development... This led to Nahida, despite possessing the talent of innate knowledge, having almost no thought of freeing herself!
"Sumeru! Sumeru! Sumeru!"
Buyer muttered the name of the nation she once protected repeatedly, and her emerald eyes grew colder and colder.
It was true that Archons loved their people.
But for an Archon like Buyer, who had fully developed and even emerged from the Archon War.
She would never be as weak as the God of Salt, Havria, to the point of not retaliating even when her followers held a blade to her throat!
At this moment, the frenzied clang of Beelzebul's blade came from the direction of Inazuma.
As the bloodshed in Inazuma intensified, Buyer's gaze towards the Akademiya also seemed to begin to be tinged with streaks of blood...
