Genshin Impact: I, Heavenly Principle, Will Make Teyvat Supreme

Chapter 168: Evil Ones Are a Waste to Kill—Toss Them All into the Abyss

Chapter 168 - Evil Ones Are a Waste to Kill—Toss Them All into the Abyss

The battle erupted in an instant.

Superheated crimson rays shot straight out from the Monster King Orochi's main head and all the smaller mouths.

The speed was so extreme that even a Lower God would struggle to dodge at close range if targeted.

The temperature was so high that wherever the beams swept, the air evaporated and the ground turned into rivers of molten lava.

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE—

At such temperatures, even a Lower God would melt if they didn't use divine power to protect their body.

However, everyone present already knew about Monster King Orochi's abilities, so they had maintained a safe distance from the beginning. With just a few casual shifts in position, they easily avoided the "superheated breath."

The seven Lower Gods quickly identified their respective opponents. With the two Dragon-level monsters already taken down by Tornado, the remaining Dragon-level monsters now matched perfectly with one for each of them.

A Lower God fighting a Dragon-level monster was like a grandfather fighting his grandson. On top of that, they already knew all the monsters' information—it was like filling out a test where all the answers were already given.

In terms of pure destructive power, Dragon-level monsters were comparable to Lower Gods. But that was just destructive power. Once you added divine power, divine weapons, and divine perception, it became dimensional suppression.

It was like the mages in the Nasuverse—only low-tier mages pursued destructive power. High-tier mages played with rules and concepts.

Before Orochi even finished releasing his "superheated breath," Jean and Kamisato Ayato had already launched their attacks.

In reality, there's no such thing as turn-based battles.

"With this sword, I swear—"

The Skyward Blade in Jean's hand radiated a soft blue light.

Buzz—

Gentle wind elements, infused with the "Laws of Wind," instantly blanketed a vast area spanning hundreds of kilometers.

This land's sky and earth were transformed into a "Divine Domain."

All targets within the "Divine Domain" were deemed enemies of the "Laws of Wind" and were suppressed by every aspect wind could control.

The clouds above began to rotate with Monster King Orochi at the center, and a tornado several kilometers in diameter descended like a finger from the sky, pressing down on Orochi.

Under the suppression of the "Laws of Wind," no matter how much Orochi resisted or struggled, he could not break free from the rules.

His body was enveloped in tiny, glowing wind currents—he couldn't even move a single finger. He was in utter disbelief.

"I can't mimic it!?"

Since becoming the Monster King, Orochi had been able to instantly copy and even surpass any biological skill he observed.

Yet now, he couldn't learn this S-class human's skill, and the wind element itself was causing him intense discomfort.

Dragon-level monsters couldn't even survive a single blow from him, let alone stand against him.

"Damn it..."

Orochi stared at the tornado descending like a divine finger. The atmospheric pressure was mounting on him like a mountain.

BOOM!

The tornado crushed him into the ground. The rule-infused wind scoured his body like an iron brush, stripping off chunks of his flesh piece by piece.

"AAAAAAHHH!" The Monster King let out a terrifying scream. His tail pierced the ground, and a suction force capable of shaking the planet burst forth.

Shockwaves radiated from him in all directions, causing the land to ripple in massive waves.

"Strange powers... You humans really can't be underestimated!"

Once a human, Orochi thought he understood humanity well. But now he realized he had only scratched the surface—there was much he still didn't know.

Just when Orochi expected an endless stream of planetary core energy to surge into his body, he was stunned to find that, although he could sense the energy, he simply couldn't absorb it.

It was like a vacuum cleaner trying to suck up a piece of paper, but no matter what, it just wouldn't move.

Before Orochi could figure it out, Kamisato Ayato launched his attack.

"Kamisato Art: Pure Blossom—"

A water-blue aura spread out instantly, enveloping hundreds of kilometers of land.

Another "Divine Domain" was activated, and the "Laws of Water" began suppressing everything within the domain.

Anything inside Orochi that had any relation to water was now completely under control.

As the domain expanded, blue flashes appeared all over Orochi's skyscraper-sized body.

These were slashes from Kamisato Ayato's divine blade, striking at thousands of times per second.

A divine blade forged by a god, enhanced with divine power and divine laws—no substance in the subordinate world could withstand it.

Orochi's enormous body began to "melt" like snow under sunlight.

The slashes were so fast that from a normal person's perspective, it looked like he was melting.

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

Those were the only words in Orochi's mind. At the brink of death, his survival instinct erupted, and his heart's core emitted a blinding red light.

Anything touched by the red light turned into a part of his body.

But the materials he tried to absorb dissipated before even a second passed, as if his ability had vanished. Yet he was using his full power.

"How is this happening?! Psykos! What's going on?!"

His most powerful abilities as the Monster King had failed, and Orochi let out a desperate dying scream.

"Trying to use world-shattering powers on a planet governed by the Pantheon? Pure fantasy."

Kamisato Ayato looked at the glowing, aggressive form of Monster King Orochi and accelerated his divine sword.

Ordinary people could only see the blue light shining on Orochi's body before he vanished, as if erased with a rubber.

Within ten seconds, the Monster King Orochi had completely disappeared from the planet.

After finishing, Kamisato Ayato calmly sheathed his divine blade.

On the other side, the seven Lower Gods had also finished eliminating the seven Dragon-level monsters.

At that moment, a notification came through from the Divine Pantheon Blueprint.

It was a mission completion alert.

After finishing their task, they had one day left to remain before returning to the main world.

Jean: "Our God-level mission is complete. Clearing out the remaining monsters is their job now."

Kamisato Ayato: "There's just one Dragon-level left—Elder Centipede. They can handle it."

"Time is precious. I'm heading back first to prepare for the next world."

Jean nodded. "Same here."

The second world was the true focus for these god-level beings.

"But before we leave, let's send the mastermind who fled into the Abyss."

Kamisato Ayato thought for a moment. "Sending them to the Abyss, huh? Killing those evil ones outright would be too merciful. Let's do the Abyss Overlord a favor and hand them over as labor."

Everyone knew the Abyss was short on manpower. Right now, the number of truly vile beings in the Teyvat Universe was too few, so the Abyss Overlord was squeezing every last bit of work out of the Abyssal gods and divine-class beastfolk.

At that moment in the "Main World" divine realm, Aether sensed a god knocking at the gate of the "Abyss" and quickly checked the public channel in the "Divine Pantheon Blueprint."

The "Public Channel" is a communication platform for members undertaking missions to contact others doing the same.

After all, Lower Gods can't @ higher gods they don't know, so if anything comes up, they leave a message in the public channel. If a higher god sees it and chooses to respond, they can.

Aether noticed the channel message came from the world involved in the current mission and paused to consider.

Although the Abyss is the place where all the negative aspects of the Teyvat Universe gather, it doesn't accept just anything.

For example, those grotesque, stomach-turning monsters—the Abyss refuses to take those.

Abyss creatures are already unpleasant enough to look at. If you toss in even more disturbing things, how is anyone supposed to eat properly?

However, heinous criminals from World 203? That, yes—that's what the Abyss is for. Once you're in, there's no reincarnation or redemption.

"The Abyss really is short on labor."

Aether thought about how vast the Abyss is and how few humanoid Abyss species there are. Plus, the number of sinful souls entering it is pitifully low.

If it weren't for a few usable Abyssal gods, the capital city on the Abyssal Continent wouldn't even have been built.

Even though the capital was now standing, compared to the capitals of the seven nations aboveground, it looked like it was made of toy blocks. The detail work was simply too awful to look at.

Gods might handle tasks, sure—but expect them to carve a statue? No way.

He, the Abyss Overlord, couldn't be expected to lie on a building and carve it himself, right?

Aether immediately accepted Kamisato Ayato's proposal in the public channel.

He then submitted a request to Celestia for permission to open the Abyss gate on One Punch Earth.

...

Elsewhere—

With over a hundred demigods plus full support from the Hero Association, 26 cities were swept clean of all hostile monsters within a single day.

At the same time, the truly heinous criminals were also arrested.

In this anarchic world, shockingly many humans had committed horrendous crimes.

In the original timeline, just before the Hero Association's war with the Monster Association, they recruited more heinous but powerful criminals than there were official heroes.

They just weren't as strong as the Association's official heroes.

On the second day of cleansing the world, the final Dragon-level monster, Elder Centipede, was found. Surrounded by more than a hundred demigods, its two-kilometer-long body was reduced to fragments no larger than half a meter.

It didn't even have time to destroy a single building before being instantly killed.

On the third day, after clearing the cities, they began sweeping for monsters outside urban areas.

Most monsters were in cities abandoned by humans.

In less than five days, all the monsters in the world were wiped out.

The main reason monsters had multiplied so wildly was due to the planetary consciousness.

Now that the planetary consciousness no longer spawned them, the number of monsters could only decrease and eventually vanish.

In just a few days, the world had been completely transformed. Even the ruined cities were flattened during the monster purge.

If not for the remaining city foundations, people might not believe that just days ago, this planet had been crawling with monsters.

...

Now, in all 26 cities, the streets were packed with people, and cheers echoed throughout the urban landscape.

At the city center, all the heinous criminals had their hands and feet shackled with special chains and were being marched to the central plaza under the supervision of the heroes.

In the plaza stood a massive, ominous crimson gate over a hundred meters tall.

Within the gate swirled a black-red vortex—a swirling abyss that seemed to lead to what people often referred to as "hell."

Thanks to the "demigods" who had arrived on this planet and explained the truth, the worldview of Earth's people had been completely reshaped. "Hell and the Abyss," "Heaven and the Divine Realm," "Parallel Worlds," "Reincarnation" — all of it was real.

And now, the evil ones who had committed unforgivable crimes were about to be sent straight to hell, never to be reborn, condemned to suffer forever.

While the people cheered, the criminals screamed in terror.

Each one of them, upon reaching the hell gate, sobbed and wailed. Even bound hand and foot, they gnawed at the ground with their teeth and howled hysterically:

"I don't want to go to hell! Let me go!"

"Get out of my way! I'll kill you, I swear!"

"I was wrong! Spare me, please!"

Those responsible for kicking the criminals into the Abyss showed no mercy, sending them one by one into the swirling vortex.

The vortex echoed with blood-curdling screams, scaring the remaining criminals so badly some wet themselves.

At that moment, one criminal tied up tightly like a dumpling in special chains was dragged over by Fubuki.

That criminal, of course, was Psykos, captured by Jean and left at the Hero Association's gates to be watched.

Since Psykos had Dragon-level strength, she was bound with chains forged from white iron mined in the main world.

Her face twisted with rage, she shouted insults at her former friend.

"Fubuki! Let me go! Don't think for a second—"

Fubuki was seething. She had just learned that this former friend had orchestrated a plan to wipe out humanity. If not for the arrival of powerful beings from parallel worlds, the consequences could have been disastrous.

Shame. Utter shame.

With that, she pulled off her boot and shoved it into Psykos' mouth.

"Shut up, Psykos. Go to hell and repent properly!"

Then she tossed Psykos into the vortex.

...

In the Abyss.

The happiest ones were the "Three Abyss Idiots."

Abyssal God Enjou looked at the millions of sinners being dumped into the Abyss and was grinning ear to ear.

"Hehehe... The Abyss finally has new labor! We three are finally getting a break from His Highness's whip!"

He pulled out a whip.

"You filthy sinners, I am an Abyssal God—a higher god. You will address me as 'Lord God.'"

"Half of you, go mine ores. The rest, start carving stonework for the city. Disobey, and you'll first hang and burn in abyssal fire for a year, soak in abyssal spring water for another year, and finally get whipped by me for a year."

"Hehehehe..."

The terrifying auras of the three Abyssal gods fell over the criminals, and many who had already wet themselves now fainted outright.

Even Psykos, still tied like a dumpling, rolled her eyes and passed out under the sheer pressure.

...

Meanwhile—

Noah had returned to the Divine Realm, a cruel smile on his lips.

"Next up... it's time to launch the assault on the DXD world."
