Chapter 41

"The first time, it was surprisingly easy."

On the Throne of Heavenly Law, the 'Original Dharma Ring' behind Takumi slowly rotated, and his heart beat rapidly as he heard the sound of the system.

A vague connection extended from the void to the 'Original Dharma Ring', and the 'Human Realm Power System' and 'Fate Seat System' outlined the shadow of a blue planet in his mind.

The 'Human Realm Power System' had taken over 95% of the authority in that world.

As long as people believed in 'Teyvat,' worshipped 'Yu Jian Ming Shen,' or admired or envied the holder of the 'Vision,' their destiny would be determined, and a 'fate base' would be constructed.

The power of the 'Human Realm Power System' was incredibly domineering, and any connection to it could determine a person's fate.

Now, the fate of 21% of the people on the planet of Demon Slayer was controlled by him.

"Their destiny was determined so easily. Now I understand why the descendant of Phanes was able to suppress the March Goddess of Teyvat and the Seven Dragon Kings."

The power of belief in the Human Realm was only superficial. What was truly impressive was the control of 'destiny.'

"System, based on the current situation, what will happen to Teyvat after the annexation of Demon Slayer World? What are the benefits?"

Feeling the steady stream of 'power of the world' and 'power of faith' coming from the void, Takumi asked silently.

Taking over a world was no small matter.

Even though the power system of this world was very weak, its actual size and area were not smaller than Teyvat.

Demon Slayer World was a planet, and it existed at a latitude outside the massive worldview of "trees and seas."

"Does the host choose to directly integrate Demon Slayer into the world of Teyvat or use Teyvat as the divine realm and Demon Slayer as the lower realm?"

Takumi had actually thought about this problem a long time ago.

If Demon Slayer World was directly annexed, Teyvat would inevitably double in area as the main body.

However, this would increase the consumption of Teyvat several times over.

And Teyvat was already in such a dilapidated condition that it could not bear it.

"Hey! If Demon Slayer develops into a lower world of Teyvat, the system will pull Demon Slayer from outside the tree and sea system to the Quantum Sea."

"Won't the Quantum Sea corrode the world of demons?" Takumi asked, curious.

"Hey, Demon Slayer World belongs to the worldview of Tree and Sea. It has independent rules, so they do not interfere with each other."

Takumi understood.

The rules of non-interference would naturally prevent them from eroding each other.

After Demon Slayer became the lower realm, it would continuously provide world power to the world of Teyvat and become one of Teyvat's cornerstones.

As long as there were enough such lower realms, the world of Teyvat would sooner or later become a unique existence in the Quantum Sea.

It might even become the only cosmic super world in the Quantum Sea.

Perhaps then, Teyvat could compete with the Star Rail World on the Imaginary Tree next door.

If it continued to annex different worlds that were not affected by the Quantum Sea or the Imaginary Tree, it could eventually become the third pole after the Quantum Sea and the Imaginary Tree.

"Then start the annexation process according to the second plan."

"Bit! Start calculating."

"Bit! The world of Demon Slayer is merged into the world of Teyvat in the form of a planet."

"The world core of Teyvat will be strengthened by 40%."

"The world of Teyvat has added several new world laws."

"Teyvat's tolerance to harmful power and knowledge will be increased by 35%, and 15% of harmful power and knowledge will be rendered ineffective."

"The Teyvat world barrier 'False Sky' will initially become a world barrier, and the erosion of the Quantum Sea will be slowed down by 80%."

"The core structure of Teyvat, the 'Ley Line,' has been repaired by 80%, gaining the automatic repair function and the ability to initially purify harmful forces."

"The Vision system has initially broken the shackles of the Seven Elemental Authorities. Visions can now be created without the authority of the seven elements."

"Final statistics show that the lifespan of Teyvat has been extended to 5986 years, and will continue to extend under the transfer of the world power of Demon Slayer."

"Hey, the annexation process has started and is opening up the channel between the two cosmologies."

"Dip, to ensure the annexation process proceeds smoothly, apply to temporarily take over the host's authority."

"Agree."

The moment Takumi agreed, the 'Primordial Ring' behind him expanded instantly, eventually forming a massive ring of Saturn over Sky Island.

…

The Seven Heavens God Statues, used to suppress the ley lines of the Seven Nations, emitted a strong light that pierced directly into the sky.

The people of the Seven Nations looked at the sudden situation in panic.

However, they felt reassured after seeing the statues of the Seven Heavens God, and they believed that this scene was the work of the gods of their respective nations.

The ley lines beneath the earth that were originally damaged and couldn't be repaired were quickly restored and strengthened under the influence of the new 'power of the world.'

In lands with intact ley lines, the repair of the ley lines was powerful and without any warning.

But it was especially evident where the ley lines were damaged.

Inazuma, Yashiori Island.

The colorful aurora shrouded the sky over the island, and the land polluted by the evil spirits, with black smoke rising everywhere, was quickly purified.

In just a few moments, the previously desolate environment became clearer, and most of the abnormal dark clouds in the sky dissipated.

Although Yashiori Island had not yet returned to its original lush state, it was already suitable for human farming and habitation.

The chaos in the ley lines subsided, and the elemental creatures that had been constantly forming due to the leaking energy from the ley lines gradually calmed down and became less aggressive.

"The evil spirit was instantly purified?"

In the Sangonomiya Shrine, where she was organizing the people of Watatsumi Island and the shrine maidens of Narukami Shrine to restore the stones, Kokomi looked up at the dissipating dark clouds, revealing the clear sky.

"Lady Sangonomiya! Lord Orobashi's resentment has disappeared, and the dark clouds in the sky are gone!"

The ordinary people of Watatsumi Island were unaware of what had happened.

But they were overjoyed that the land was now free of pollution and rampaging monsters.

Now, Yashiori Island, which had been uninhabited for so long, could be cultivated by them.

Watatsumi Island was created by Orobashi using corals from his body and divine power. It wasn't connected to the ley lines, which meant that the arable land would gradually shrink until it was completely unsuitable for human habitation.

"This matter must be reported to the Shogun as soon as possible!" Kokomi looked in the direction of Narukami Island.

For the people of Inazuma, nothing was more important than having more land for cultivation.

…

Sumeru

The forest ranger Tighnari, who was leading his students to purify the Withering Zones in the Avidya Forest, was shocked when he saw the Withering Zone gradually dissipating under the colorful light.

Not only that, but even the gray spots on the arm of his student Collei, caused by Eleazar, partially disappeared under the colorful light.

"Master, my arm..." Collei looked excitedly at her arm, where many of the gray spots had faded.
