Exposure of Teyvat's Isolated Universe, Vago Rock, the Geo Archon Enters TOP10, Tang San: This Power...

Star Dou Great Forest.

Core Region, Lake of Life.

Niu Tian and Titan, the two Emperors of the forest and now the pillars supporting the human world, stood side by side.

"Big Brother, was this what Lord Dragon God... looked up to back then?" Titan's voice was deep and muffled, yet filled with reverence.

Niu Tian did not answer.

He thought of the Dragon God—of that supreme being who had tried to unite the entire God Realm and lead the Soul Beast race toward glory. In their understanding, the Dragon God's power had already reached the level of creation itself.

But could even the Dragon God create a "galaxy"?

Probably not.

Yet in this "Mijia Universe," there were hundreds of millions of galaxies.

Douluo Continent, every corner of the land.

In Heaven Dou City, Emperor Xueye slumped on his dragon throne, muttering endlessly, "Impossible... This is absolutely impossible... It's an illusion. It has to be an illusion..."

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the light of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in Sect Master Ning Tian's hand flickered unsteadily, while the elders beside her had all gone pale. The wealth and influence they had taken such pride in were utterly worthless before this true "world."

In the Star Luo Empire, Dai Hao had already retracted his White Tiger Martial Soul. Fine beads of sweat seeped across the forehead of this iron-blooded emperor. The vast empire under his command did not even qualify as the spark of a "civilization" in the Light Screen's description.

Just as everyone was left dizzy and nearly unable to think by this boundless worldview, the image on the Light Screen shifted.

At the center of that endless sea of stars, two even more brilliant lines of text appeared.

[Above them are the Star Gods of the Heavens, who command the laws of the universe.]

[Below them are the Heavenly Principles of a realm, the rulers of a planet.]

[Now, the opening ranking—Mijia Universe, from Archons to the supreme Star Gods!]

Boom!

If the worldview just now had made everyone feel insignificant, then these two lines were like a heavy hammer smashing viciously into the hearts of every Deity and Strong One!

Star Gods? Heavenly Principles?

What kind of existences were those? They commanded the laws of the universe? They ruled over an entire world?

In the God Realm, Tang San's pupils abruptly contracted.

As the God Realm's enforcer and its strongest God King, what he controlled was merely the laws of this tiny God Realm.

And those so-called "Star Gods" commanded the laws of the entire universe?!

They stood above the God Realm!

They were absolutely existences above the God Realm!

Shock and confusion intertwined into an unprecedented storm within Gu Yuena's silver eyes. The Dragon God bloodline within her boiled and trembled.

The unwilling roars within the Dragon God's fragmented memories, the sorrow of gazing up at the Starry Sky—at this moment, it all seemed to have an answer.

So the Dragon God had not been defeated by the gods of the God Realm. He had been defeated by this... true "world" that he had never been able to touch!

At that moment, the image on the Light Screen changed once more.

The grand music turned stirring, as though an epic was about to begin.

A brand-new line of golden text, carrying boundless majesty, slowly emerged.

[The ranking officially begins]

[TOP 10: Vago Rock, the Geo Archon—Zhongli]

When the words [TOP 10: Vago Rock, the Geo Archon—Zhongli] were branded into everyone's minds, the Light Screen did not immediately begin introducing this being. Instead, the image shifted, revealing a tranquil yet profound Starry Sky.

Then, an Azure Blue planet slowly emerged from the darkness.

It looked so beautiful, so full of life.

Yet as the grand, faintly sorrowful narration sounded, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

[Within this endless universe, there is a planet known as "Teyvat." It is extraordinarily unique.]

[This planet was once completely transformed by a Descender from beyond the heavens. With supreme power, He created a layer of "False Sky" for this planet.]

[This false sky severed Teyvat's connection to the entire universe. No starlight could truly shine within, and no civilization from beyond could easily set foot here.]

[It was like a carefully crafted "Miniature Garden," a cradle isolated from the world.]

As the narration ended, the entire Douluo God Realm, along with all the continents under its jurisdiction, fell into dead silence.

"False Sky..."

In the God Realm, Tang San unconsciously clenched his fingers. The Sea God Trident beside him hummed, as if it sensed its master's unease.

Creating a false sky that enveloped an entire planet? Severing its connection to the universe? What kind of concept was that?

As a God King, he could create domains, establish the Rules of the God Realm, and even influence the climate of the lower realms. But to create a perfect "lie" for a planet—for an entire world?

This had already surpassed the limits of his understanding of "power."

"What kind of joke is this..." Zhou Weiqing, the God King of the Heavenly Jewel Change world, lost his usual roguish grin for the first time. In its place was an absurd sense of disbelief. "They replaced the entire sky? Just how bored—and how powerful—would a bastard have to be to pull something like that off?"

The Dragon Prince beside him also put away all his pride. The strength of dragons lay in their physical bodies and their control over the elements, but the power to reshape heaven and earth had already touched upon the domain of creation.

"Miniature Garden... Cradle..."

In the Star Dou Great Forest, Gu Yuena murmured to herself. She had always devoted herself to creating a homeland where Soul Beasts could live and thrive, yet compared to the methods of this "Descender," all her efforts were like a child's sandcastle.

Protection, or imprisonment?

The Dragon God bloodline within her churned even more violently in response to this shocking information. The sorrow inherited from the Dragon God seemed to be telling her that what he had seen back then might have been merely one corner of this "False Sky."

"Big Brother..." Titan's voice was incomparably hoarse as he looked at Niu Tian beside him. "I... I don't really understand. The sky is fake? Then are the stars the people living beneath it see also fake?"

Niu Tian did not answer. His massive fist clenched tightly. He recalled how the Dragon God had once led the Soul Beasts in rebellion against the God Realm—how magnificent and earth-shaking that had been.

But now, it seemed that what the Dragon God had rebelled against might have only been one caretaker within this vast "Miniature Garden."

How tragic! How laughable!

Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion.

Huo Yuhao had pushed his Spiritual Eye to its limit. Golden light flickered in his eyes as he tried to see through the Light Screen and discern the true nature of the planet called "Teyvat."

Yet he could see nothing.

The Light Screen seemed to contain a power from a dimension even higher than the laws of the God Realm. The moment his spiritual power touched it, it vanished like a clay ox entering the sea.
