chapter 42

Tinari was genuinely happy to see his student's incurable condition alleviated.

"But what kind of light is this? What's going on in this forest?"

When he jumped to the height of the big tree, his eyes widened slightly when he saw the light of the Statues of the Seven emit beams into the sky.

"That's... the statues of the Seven. All the statues emit huge beams of light. Is this the power of the gods?"

For five hundred years, ever since the former god of Sumeru, the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, passed away and the Lesser Lord Kusanali became the god of Sumeru, this god of Sumeru has not been seen.

Even the people have almost forgotten that there is such a god in Sumeru.

When someone asks about the Lesser Lord Kusanali, the sages of the Akademiya will all say, 'The Lesser Lord Kusanali is in retreat to think about ways to eliminate the Withering Zones and the Eleazar disease.'

"Could it be that Lesser Lord Kusanali has found a way to eradicate the Withering and Eleazar?" Tinari raised his head and looked at the sky that was already illuminated by the colorful aurora and was excited.

Great, over the past thousand years, Sumeru didn't know how many lives had been taken away by the Withering Zones and Eleazar.

Every time he saw his students secretly hiding in the corner in agony due to Eleazar, he was helpless.

Sumeru City.

Akademiya.

The sages who were discussing the possibility of creating an artificial god with the once-exiled scholar and now the second Harbinger of the Fatui, Il Dottore, were so horrified by the sudden miracle that they fell off their chairs.

The Grand Sage Azar stared with wide eyes at the statue of the Seven in the distance, which emitted an aurora and rushed into the sky.

"What's going on? How could the Statues of the Seven shine like this!"

As the Grand Sage of Sumeru, he knew that the Statues of the Seven were made by humans and seemed to have the ability to gather faith. Only the gods who believed in them knew how to use the 'power of faith.'

The people of Sumeru always believed in the deceased Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, not the Lesser Lord Kusanali who had no divine majesty and power at all.

"Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, is Greater Lord Rukkhadevata still alive? Could it be that she has come back!"

Azar was not afraid; on the contrary, he was excited and enthusiastic.

"Great! If the God of Wisdom comes back, all the unresolved problems can be solved. Great!"

In addition to Azar, other sages were also as fanatical as him.

Il Dottore, the Harbinger of the Fatui, looked at the mouths of the fanatical sages that were not covered by masks with a mocking smile.

What arrogance towards knowledge, what ignorance towards the existence of gods.

Rather than saying that the sages of the Akademiya worship the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, it is better to say that they worship the 'God of Wisdom' who can give them the desire for knowledge.

The gods themselves are looked down upon from a human perspective.

How foolish it is to treat gods as omnipotent questioning machines.

It was precisely because of this that when he proposed to create a god that belonged to Sumeru, a god that could be controlled, these fools were unprepared and fell for it.

"Okay! Teacher! My Eleazar is cured!"

While the sages were enthusiastic, a scholar rolled up his sleeves and shouted with tears of joy.

But he didn't expect to be reprimanded.

"Hmph, it's just Eleazar. The great God of Wisdom is back, so of course, they can find a way to solve it."

Il Dottore secretly thought: "It seems... the former God of Wisdom is not dead, maybe she is just recuperating somewhere..."

His plan to experiment with artificial gods in Sumeru seems to be impossible to realize.

He knew very well how powerful the gods of the Seven were, and he didn't want to confront the gods now.

While the sages were feverishly discussing how to invite the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata back, Il Dottore quietly left the Akademiya.

Some corner of Sumeru City.

"Lesser Lord Kusanali, is this your power?" Dunyarzad looked at the gray spots on her arms that had mostly disappeared and clasped her hands together in excitement to pray.

At the highest point of Sumeru City, the Sanctuary of Surasthana, Nahida, who was imprisoned in the Jnana Energy capsule, opened her eyes.

"This power... is so powerful. The forbidden knowledge has been purified... No, it's not purified. It seems that the world no longer rejects it and turned it into useful knowledge!"

"What the hell is going on? What happened to the world?"

Even though her body is imprisoned here, as a god, her perception will not be imprisoned. She can clearly feel the earth-shaking changes in Sumeru.

The changes in the world can confuse any god, but only the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, whose consciousness can be connected to the 'Irminsul,' the tree that records the world's memories, truly understands.

She is the incarnation of the 'Irminsul,' and she is receiving changes in the world almost all the time.

Apart from 'Heavenly Principles,' she is the god who knows the 'World of Teyvat' best.

"The newcomers are so great. They actually merged another world into Teyvat, extending the life of Teyvat and making up for the brokenness of the world."

A little girl who looked exactly like Nahida leaned against the trunk of the dreamy Irminsul, her eyes shining with wisdom.

Although she is the incarnation of the Irminsul and is born with the memory of the world, there are still many secrets that she cannot know.

The other Seven Archons, Celestia, and events before the Cataclysm.

As long as there are beings who are stronger than her or at the same level, she will not be able to know their past while blocking her own past.

But when the fifth descendant arrived, she learned some secrets.

Not only that, but the other world has become a subordinate world of the Teyvat world, and the world memory of that world is also connected to the Irminsul.

Through the memory of that other world, she learned the reason why Teyvat has changed now.

"Although forbidden knowledge does not pose a fatal threat to the world of Teyvat with the help of another world, it still does harm."

But the danger was enough that she no longer had to choose to sacrifice herself.

Moreover, after the erosion imposed by the Heavenly Principles on all living beings disappeared, her power gradually returned.

"Based on the thoughts of the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles... I'm afraid Sumeru can't help him at all now."

As the incarnation of the Irminsul, she also wants the world to get better and better.

But after Sumeru stayed in the Irminsul to suppress forbidden knowledge, the Akademiya gradually moved toward extremes and depravity in knowledge.

She knew exactly what the Akademiya had done in the past five hundred years.

She was particularly angry about the imprisonment of Nahida.

If Nahida had not been imprisoned, forbidden knowledge would have disappeared from Sumeru five hundred years ago.

But she had no choice. She could only hope that Nahida would come here soon.

It's different now.

Forbidden knowledge changed from a deadly poison to a chronic poison under the power of the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles.

She can dedicate a little bit of her power to curb the corruption in Sumeru.

She knew that if she didn't take action to control Sumeru, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles would also take action, and then it would be impossible to stop.
