Chapter 629 - End of Side Story—The Limit of Insight, and the Path to Rank 10

In truth, Jibril hadn't just "settled" the Seven Archons.

In Mondstadt, the Acting Grand Master Jean, the Deaconess Barbara, Amber, Lisa, Noelle, Fischl, Sucrose, Rosaria, Eula... and even Klee and Diona had all gathered under the summons of the Anemo Archon.

Liyue was no different. Although the God of Contracts himself wasn't a target, others were inevitably designated. Whether it was the Liyue Qixing's Keqing and Ningguang, or the Adepti disciples like Yaoyao and Shenhe, all fell within the scope of the conscription.

Inazuma and Sumeru went without saying. Even in Snezhnaya, members of the Fatui were called forth.

Finally, the gods and legends of the world gathered in the Nation of Hydro, Fontaine, waiting for the arrival of the "Master" Jibril spoke of.

"Master, your loyal servant Jibril has a small discovery to report."

Under the watchful gaze of the Archons and the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, Jibril did not light incense, build an altar, or even utilize any special power. She simply stood at the lowest point, in a place where everyone could see her, and knelt reverently. She used the simplest words to call for her Master's descent.

In this world isolated by the Heavenly Principles, such a call shouldn't have been able to reach the outside, let alone bridge the gap between universes. Even if this "Master" was as powerful as she claimed, surely he wouldn't be able to hear a prayer so fleeting.

Besides, shouldn't one summon a supreme being from the highest peak? Was it not disrespectful to force him to look down upon them from below?

Just as these thoughts crossed the minds of the onlookers, something changed.

The Shade of Space was the first to notice.

"The connection to the Heavenly Principles... what is this?!" She looked in shock at the space before Jibril. Along with Paimon, she witnessed the manifestation of a figure appearing in response to Jibril's prayer.

Then, the two of them shouted a name that sent shockwaves through everyone present.

"The Primordial Master?!"

The moment he appeared, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles acknowledged him as her Lord.

But that was nothing compared to what happened next. In the next instant, the entire continent of Teyvat shuddered slightly, as if greeting its Master's arrival with ecstatic joy. The sky was completely blanketed by purple clouds, and then the very earth began to fall.

The sudden sense of weightlessness left even the gods stunned.

Though words could hardly describe it, the world was indeed falling—not into the dark abyss of the depths, but upward, toward the sky. Looking at it from another perspective, Jibril, who had stood at the lowest point, was now effectively at the highest point of the world.

"No! We have to save the people!" The Seven quickly reacted, attempting to intervene with their divine power. If ordinary humans fell into the sky, the only result would be death.

But before they could act, a young man's voice rang out, resonating across all of Teyvat.

"The six senses inverted, the heavens tilt and the earth falls... Jibril, you have done well. This is indeed the 'Fourth-Class Universe' I have been searching for."

The moment the man spoke, the falling stopped. As if time were being rewound, everything returned to its original position.

"Master!" Hearing Su Mo's praise, Jibril's face lit up with joy. She scurried over like a loyal puppy, looking delighted as Su Mo patted her head.

"...Master!" Just a step behind Jibril, the Shade of Space and Paimon also stepped forward, kneeling behind her.

The moment Su Mo appeared, they felt their creator—or rather, the creator of their creator—had returned. They were the shadows used by the Primordial One, Phanes, to rule the world; they were essentially clones of Phanes, sharing her appearance.

Originally, Phanes had fallen into a near-death state following the war with the Second Throne, and the Shades had suffered heavy casualties. But the moment Su Mo appeared, the "World Sovereignty" of the entire universe returned to its proper place, as did the sovereignty of this tiny planet, Teyvat.

As the Father of Gods and the source of all things, the Primordial God Phanes had spiritually become Su Mo's creation. If Phanes was Su Mo's "daughter," then these Shades were merely clones of that daughter. It was only natural for them to submit to their Master and Father.

"We welcome the Almighty Lord of Creation!"

Simultaneously, the Seven Archons realized the truth. They lowered their heads in submission, even the haughty Tsaritsa. Every Demon God was born from a fragment of Phanes; they inherited a portion of the Heavenly Principles' authority, as well as Phanes' love for humanity. The impulse of a Demon God to love humans originated from the First Throne.

Now, facing the Primordial Master, even the Dragon Sovereigns who held full authority could only submit in trembling awe. Even the Second Throne, Nibelung, could only prostrate itself and beg for mercy. These "second-generation" and "third-generation" gods had only one choice: surrender.

On this day, Teyvat welcomed a brand new Master. The universe that was destined to cycle through apocalypses, surviving only by devouring "Seeds of Hope" from the outside, finally received a new Heavenly Principle.

The gods and all living things rejoiced at the Emperor's arrival. Only a few members of the Hexenzirkel had some minor reservations.

"Wait, wait! No matter how you look at it, Klee is way too small! Klee, don't move, you can't handle this—let Mommy handle it instead!"

"My foolish disciple Mona is still too innocent. Let her master take a look at things first!"

As for Su Mo, after seeing through the reality of the Teyvat universe, his understanding of the essence of the world reached a new depth.

He could finally confirm that there was indeed a path beyond Rank 9.

Furthermore, Class 4 universes were not the only types in the multiverse. According to his calculations, there existed a "Class 5 Universe"—a malevolent entity capable of infinitely devouring hope. It was a world that could never be saved, and it would continuously sever the lives of other worlds, dragging Class 4, 3, 2, and even Class 1 universes into the abyss. It was an evil existence, a literal cancer of the multiverse.

That would be the source of darkness for all of creation—the ultimate shadow hidden within the multiverse.

Su Mo believed that with enough time, his "Absolute Insight" would be enough to leap over the barrier of Rank 9. He would reach the path of Rank 10, a realm even the Chat Group could not touch. He would sever all darkness, become the head of all worlds, and obtain power that transcended the narrative layers.

Only then could his talent truly be called "Infinite Insight."
