Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

Chapter 588: The Black King, the Chosen One, and the Hill People

What exactly does the Abyss Cult want to do?

Before the abyss submerged the throne of God, I had an unfinished war with "Heavenly Law" - I had the tendency to restore Kanreya, but I also had the tendency to fight against Heavenly Law.

The 'Loom of Fate' plan that the Abyss Cult has insisted on since its founding should be consistent with the Abyss Cult's goals, otherwise they would not have to spend so much effort to achieve it.

In this way, the 'Loom of Destiny' is a tool targeting the earth veins, which are unique to the human world created by the original creation. Completely subverting the control of the earth veins may be beneficial to the struggle between the Abyss Cult and the original faction.

But if the 'Loom of Fate' really works on the leylines of Teyvat, what impact will it have on the people of Teyvat?

Will the continuation of the Kanreya War bring pain to the whole world again like it did five hundred years ago?

I am now standing at such a critical juncture that can determine my future.

As long as we remind Dainsleb, we can prevent the 'Eye of the Tiller' from being taken away by the Abyss Cult, and we can prevent the 'Loom of Destiny' from being completely completed. The Abyss Cult's plan of hundreds of years will be thwarted, or at least delayed, and everything in the future will change...

Wang Chen sighed deeply.

The reason why I am so entangled is that I am ignorant of the future. I don't know how much impact the Abyss Cult will have on the world after obtaining the 'Loom of Fate', whether it is good or bad. I don't know how much impact the Abyss Cult will have on the world if they can't obtain the 'Loom of Fate', whether it is good or bad.

Moreover, as the opponent of the Abyss Cult, Tenri's situation must also be taken into consideration.

The maintainers are dying, the creators have not yet arrived, but the world will not burn again because you will ascend to the throne of God - someone made such a prophecy to Ying.

According to Villette, the original was clearly severely damaged and its functions were damaged.

If the original beings and maintainers of Heaven's Law are allowed to die, Teyvat will lose the 'eggshell' that is both protective and restraining. A safer way should be to help Ying ascend to the throne of God. The level of this matter is so high that many situations in the past would not and could not affect it, but the war between the Abyss Cult and Heaven's Law will definitely have an impact.

In addition, the one who helped Kaliber regain his sanity and promoted the establishment of the Abyss Cult and the "Loom of Fate" plan was the "Prophet" Viserfenir, one of the Five Sinners of Kanrea.

He was a prophet who had the ability to make predictions for the world. To put it bluntly, he should have seen through the future at the beginning of his action.

Without this variable, the 'loom of fate' would be completed in Vimalakirti Manor, and the Abyss Cult would gain the power to fight against the laws of nature.

Will Ying also have a future where she can ascend to the throne of God?

If this is the outcome, it seems that doing nothing would be better. If it is really Ying who replaced the law of nature, Kong would have no reason to provoke a war again.

I believe that Ying can prevent bad things from happening, and I believe that Ying can manage Teyvat well. Of course, I will help. As long as I become strong enough, there is nothing to be afraid of... Let's decide this for now.

Time unknowingly resumed its flow.

He stood up hesitantly and rushed to Mount Subduing Demons. There was still no trace of Dainsleb along the way. However, Lan Lizhe, whom he met by chance under the Colossus of Ruins, provided more accurate information. Finally, Wang Chen found Dainsleb in the cab of the Colossus of Ruins.

The moment they met, Dainsreb launched a warm greeting from a tricky angle with a huge ball of blue abyss fire. Wang Chen was frightened and raised his rock shield to block the attack. Then Dainsreb realized that the visitor was not an enemy.

"I thought it was someone from the Abyss Cult who took the bait...how could it be you?"

"Recently, there have been some anomalies in the ground veins of Weimo Manor, and the hill people have also become restless. I wondered if the Abyss Cult was causing trouble, so I came to take a look."

Dainsleibu adhered to his usual caution and asked, "There has indeed been a change in Weimo Manor, but this place is quite a distance away from Weimo Manor, right?"

Wang Chen gave the reason he had thought of on the way here: "Because a man dressed strangely appeared around Weimo Manor and was regarded as a suspect of causing anomalies."

"..."

"Of course, after listening to their description, I am very sure that person is you. The reason why I chased after you is because I just wanted to talk to you... or I just have some questions to ask you."

"what is the problem?"

"Before that, I have to admit one thing - I am a Qiuqiu people, although you should already know it."

"..."

"I was inexplicably turned into a Hill Chow. I think I have the right to know the truth of that year, such as how I became a Hill Chow and who should I blame?"

Seeing Dainsleb hesitate, Wang Chen made up his mind, rolled up his trouser legs, and showed his calves that were still in the shape of a hillbilly: "To be honest, for some reason, I have lost the composure to wait or explore the truth myself. I want to know the answers to these questions now."

Dainsleb spoke up: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but the whole thing is very long and can't be explained in a few words. And there are some things that can't be easily said."

"I've done my own research and know a lot of information. Just tell me. If there's anything you don't understand, I'll ask you."

After two seconds of silence, confirming that Wang Chen was determined to ask, Dainsleb began to narrate: "Initially, Kanreya obtained wisdom and power from the Black King beyond the world—"

"Who is the Black King?"

"The black dragon king, Nibelung. Teyvat originally belonged to dragons, but they were defeated by outsiders. After that, the black king left Teyvat and returned with power from outside the world. Although it failed again, it is almost indestructible. Its remains burning with the fire of revenge are buried deep underground."

Just this part alone is enough to talk about for half a day, and I have to be careful with my words, so I don't want to mention these things, but Dainsleb saw Wang Chen just nodded and didn't delve into it...

He was slightly surprised, and then continued:

“After the outsiders defeated the dragons, they divided the power into seven types according to the rules of Teyvat and created humans in the image of their own kind.

“Those first humans, although born in Teyvat, were modeled after humans from outside this world, so they have a certain degree of adaptability to the power of outside this world.

"But since the return of the Black King, the outsider suffered a heavy blow and became more and more afraid of the power outside the world, so he simply imposed stricter restrictions on humans - humans who are close to the seven powers and can belong to the order of seven are the 'chosen ones', and the rest are regarded as the residue after filtering out the 'chosen ones'. The Kanreya people are one of the latter, so they were sunk underground.

“Coincidentally, Kanreya thus got the opportunity to contact the Black King who was also underground.

“With his own tenacity, Kanreya can restore the glory of mankind without the grace of God. It was only the accidental contact with the power of the Black King that made Kanreya see more possibilities.

"The Abyss was introduced and used extensively. It was also at this time that people discovered through testing that the pure-blooded Kanreya people showed a stronger adaptability to the Abyss. Some people with extraordinary mental powers could also resist the temptation of the Abyss to a certain extent. However, people with other demon bloodlines and no extraordinary mental powers, once exposed to the Abyss, would easily be bewitched by it and lose themselves.

“That’s why I made the above guess about ‘The Chosen One’.

“While obtaining the power of the abyss from the Black King, Kanreya discovered that the Black King’s remains were stirring with hatred—it was trying to destroy the foundation of the world.

“But if we allow the Black King to continue, the first to be affected will be Kanreya, who is closest to us.

"After making this judgment, we handed over most of the power taken from the Black King to six people with pure Kanreya blood and extraordinary mental strength. They are all the best among their peers in various fields and can withstand the most power of the abyss without getting lost. They will carry the expectations of the people to stop the Black King from shaking the foundation of the world.

“I am one of them.

“But we all underestimated the abyss.

"Except for me, the other five people could not resist the temptation of the abyss. They divided up the power that could destroy the world, and then left.

"The Black King's actions were eventually discovered by Heaven, and Kanreya's use of the power of the Abyss was also exposed, and a crackdown on the Abyss broke out.

“And those five people almost sat back and watched Kanria fall... ‘The Sage’ Helotadi, ‘The Prophet’ Viserfenir, ‘The Gold’ Rhinedot, ‘The Evil Knight’ Surtloch, ‘The Moon Hunter’ Lelier... No matter how my memory wears out, I will never forget these names. One day, I will take revenge on them.

“In that war, Tenri expended so much of her energy in suppressing the Black King that she had little time to deal with Kanreya.

"After the war was almost over, the people were all 'processed' together. Those who were less adaptable to the abyss became hillbillies, while the stronger ones suffered the curse of undeath.

“We have all been rejected by the leyline cycle of Teyvat. We can only continue to wear away over the long years until one day, when there is nothing left, we will truly die.

"That's the answer to your question."

PS: The Fontaine chapter has ended, and the progress of this book has caught up with the progress in the game. The current version is 4.8, the end of the Fontaine version.

It is predicted that Nata will have versions 5.0-5.8. The first three versions are the main storyline. Summer Event and Lantern Festival will occupy two versions, one version for the interlude, and the remaining two versions will be major events or other events. The same will probably be true for Winter Solstice. If you want to wait until the Winter Solstice story is finished, it will probably be in version 6.2 or 6.3, which means there is still a year and a half left.

If the main storyline of Genshin Impact had not been completed in Winter Solstice, there might still be 7.0 or 8.0, but this book cannot be delayed that long, so the only option is to finish it as soon as possible.

Fiction warning: Starting from this chapter, there will be a lot of subjective speculation about the worldview of Teyvat. We can no longer guarantee that it will be consistent with the original work, but we can only ensure that it is as reasonable as possible. Please watch with caution.
