Genshin Impact: I, Heavenly Principle, Will Make Teyvat Supreme-Chapter 117: What Do You Think About Me Reviving Phanes?

The construction of the Divine Realm was, in essence, the establishment of a domain for gods above Teyvat.

Noah planned to model it after Little Garden’s tiered structure, with Teyvat as the largest and lowest layer. The higher one ascended, the stronger the beings residing there would be.

At present, there were still too few gods in Teyvat, so there was no urgent need for additional layers. However, the construction of the Divine Realm itself could begin immediately.

Noah crafted one-time-use Divine Realm Construction Cards. By activating one, the Light Realm System’s creation ability would generate a Divine Realm covering an area equivalent to one-third of the Seven Nations of Teyvat.

In the future, divine candidates inducted into the Pantheon System could submit applications to enter the Divine Realm via the system.

Primary Gods serve as administrators of an entire Divine Realm, Subordinate Gods oversee specific regions within it, and Lesser Gods manage affairs at an even lower level.

Any newly ascended deity entering the Teyvat Divine Realm could bring along a limited number of close relatives or friends.

Since Teyvat was still a micro-universe, a single-layered Divine Realm was sufficient for now.

However, as the universe expanded, additional layers would be constructed accordingly.

To prevent potential catastrophes, upper-tier residents required approval from a Prime God before descending to lower tiers, as their sheer power would be devastating to the weaker realms.

Outside of the Abyss, the Primary Gods all received their Divine Realm Construction Cards from Noah and began establishing their respective realms beneath Celestia.

Each realm reflected the distinct cultural aesthetics of the Seven Nations of Teyvat.

When combined, these realms formed a miniaturized version of Teyvat, covering roughly one-third of its surface area.

From Teyvat, these divine realms were invisible—only Celestia, at the center, could be seen.

Once construction was complete, the gods reluctantly took their leave.

Venti, watching Zhongli stand with his hands folded behind his back, looking every bit like an elderly scholar, sighed wistfully.

"I’m really jealous of you, old man. You’ve conquered such a powerful world—your realm will be bustling in no time."

Zhongli responded calmly.

"Barbatos, you simply have yet to receive an assignment from Lord Heavenly Principle. Your turn will come soon."

Guizhong sighed.

"Even though Lord Heavenly Principle assigns tasks based on the Seven Nations, the Divine Realm itself isn’t bound by those same rules. Looks like I’ll have to start recruiting people into Morax’s realm. After all, he has the most divine candidates."

Raiden Makoto’s eyes lit up at this.

"Guizhong is right. After all, the Divine Pact doesn’t state that a divine candidate must belong to the first realm they enter."

Raiden Ei, being the first to conquer another world, had chosen one of the weakest realms. So far, she had only managed to cultivate two divine candidates.

Furina immediately chimed in.

"Huh?! Why didn’t I think of that?! I’m the Queen of Water, yet my understanding of the Divine Pact isn’t even as thorough as Lady Makoto’s… I’ll have to analyze it in greater detail."

Although she had only recently formed friendships with these older goddesses, she already considered them her true companions.

Venti immediately grinned. "Old man, when the time comes, I won’t hold back either."

The other gods also cast eager glances at Zhongli, already scheming in their minds.

Even with all his composure, Zhongli felt a cold sweat break out under their piercing gazes, his hands trembling slightly.

At last, he remembered what it felt like to be backstabbed by a friend.

Only Apep, the Dragon King of Dendro, and Azhdaha, the Dragon King of Geo, showed no interest in recruiting people into their divine realms.

If non-humanoid beings were to ascend as divine candidates in the future, then they might consider it.

After the gods had departed, Noah rose from his throne, stretched lazily, and turned to Asmoday and Istaroth.

"Istaroth, Asmoday, what do you think about me reviving Phanes?"

Both women snapped their gazes toward their master.

Istaroth’s eyes widened in shock. "Master, you wish to revive the former Heavenly Principle?"

As the most intellectual among the Four Shades, she understood well that a successor was always wary of their predecessor—after all, only a dead predecessor was a good predecessor.

She had never imagined that her master would even consider bringing Phanes back.

Even though she herself had once been a fragment of Phanes, she had no desire to see her former self revived.

Why would she, when Lord Noah—who fed her well and treated her far better—was in power now?

Asmoday also looked at Noah with surprise. "Master, Phanes’ death is an absolute fact. Is resurrection even possible?"

Phanes had been an outsider. Although she had once occupied the First Throne, after her death, Teyvat retained no trace of her existence.

Without any remaining records, could resurrection even be achieved?

She knew that her master was immensely powerful, but this… was beyond her comprehension.

Esdeath, who didn’t understand a word of what was happening, simply stared at Noah in admiration.

Silently, she pulled out a notebook and began sketching his noble posture.

Noah listened to the shock in his subordinates’ voices and smirked, brimming with confidence.

"You two really underestimate both my generosity and my capabilities."

"It’s true—before I conquered three worlds, I was wary of Phanes. Back then, I would never have even considered reviving her."

"But now, everything in Teyvat—including Phanes herself—is entirely under my control. What reason do I have to be afraid?"

"Would I really need to constantly defend against Phanes just because she was the previous Heavenly Principle? That would be utterly ridiculous."

As he spoke, Noah rubbed his chin with a playful smirk.

"Besides, Phanes is a woman."

"You know the saying—two tigers cannot share a mountain… unless one is male and the other female."

"Not that it matters—before me, Phanes isn’t even a tiger. She’s not even a cat."

Istaroth, hearing her master’s outrageous words, couldn’t help but retort. "And what if Phanes were male?"

Noah answered without hesitation. "Then I’d erase him on the spot."

Istaroth sighed. "Master, your possessiveness is truly maxed out."

Noah responded as though it were the most natural thing in the world. "You Four Shades belong to me—including Phanes."

Curious, Istaroth asked, "Then surely, reviving your predecessor isn’t just for the sake of your possessiveness?"

Noah clicked his tongue and rubbed his chin again. "Of course not. I realized that as the Teyvat Universe expands, managing its order is becoming too burdensome."

"There are certain matters that even you Four Shades cannot handle, so I need someone stronger and more knowledgeable about world order to act as my assistant."

Istaroth rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath. "So basically, maintaining order is taking up too much of your time… time that you’d rather spend ’acquiring’ more girls to play with."

Noah grabbed Istaroth’s cheeks with both hands. "You actually dared to mock your master? Do you believe I won’t make you so exhausted that you turn into a little sprite right now?"

Istaroth panicked and quickly clung to Noah’s arm, looking up at him pitifully. "Master~ I was wrong, okay? Don’t be mad, please?"

Noah gave Istaroth’s cheeks a firm rub. Smart ones are always the most fun—they know when to act cute and plead.

Asmoday, on the other hand, was different. She was honest and obedient. Even when she was on the verge of passing out, she would grit her teeth and endure in silence—stubborn to the core.

"Hmph, reviving Phanes is purely for practical purposes."

Istaroth rubbed her cheeks with both hands. "Practical purposes? How so?"

Though inwardly, she couldn’t help but doubt whether it was actually for legitimate reasons.

Noah ignored her silent complaints. "Haven’t you noticed that the Teyvat Universe is currently missing a villain?"

"There are many things that I, as the benevolent and humane new Heavenly Principle, cannot openly do without just cause."

Istaroth suddenly understood. "You mean… you need someone cold and ruthless, someone whose power is second only to yours, to play the bad guy while you play the good guy?"

Even as an ancient God of Time who had witnessed countless human intrigues, she couldn’t help but think, My master is truly devious.

Noah spread his hands. "Isn’t this just a standard white-glove strategy?"

"Even in the Biblical pantheon, this is how things are done. Whenever God couldn’t act directly, he had Satan take care of it. Not only did the problem get solved, but it also reinforced God’s image as a loving deity."

"In reality, every world-ending catastrophe was caused by God, while Satan never did a thing."

As he spoke, Noah’s golden eyes radiated divine majesty. Behind him, both the Primordial Law Ring and the Abyss Law Ring slowly emerged.

In his hand, a serpent biting its own tail materialized.

"Do you know what this is? This is why I am confident I can revive Phanes."

Noah held up the Ouroboros Ring, his voice filled with absolute certainty.

Istaroth and Asmoday blinked. The incomprehensible aura they had always sensed from their master—so it came from this object.

Istaroth was stunned. "Could this be… one of the two great truths of the universe—the Ouroboros?"

As a fragment of Phanes, she retained some of Phanes’ knowledge.

The Ouroboros Ring in Noah’s hand glowed, sending out formless, intangible waves that rippled across the entire Teyvat Universe.

Within mere moments, the entire universe was enveloped.

"The Ouroboros doesn’t just represent infinity—it also represents infinite possibilities. And in this world, there is no such thing as an absolute zero probability. As long as there is even the tiniest chance, the Ouroboros can amplify it from infinitely small… to infinitely great."

Right now, the most powerful authority Noah possessed was the Ouroboros Ring.

Even when combined, the Primordial Law Ring and the Abyss Law Ring were no match for this power.

"The former ruler of the beginning—now, appear before me."

Noah exerted his full control over endless possibility.

Buzz—Buzz—Buzz—

The moment Ouroboros was activated, an imperceptible force silently engulfed the entire Teyvat Universe—even Primary Gods and Supreme Gods remained completely unaware.

Formless and intangible, undetectable by any being except Noah, an indescribable presence began gathering from every corner of Teyvat, converging toward Celestia.

Inside the Grand Hall of the Gods, radiant auroras shimmered into existence, so dense they seemed almost tangible.

In the blink of an eye, they condensed into a ten-meter-wide eggshell.

Enclosed within this eggshell was everything Phanes had ever left behind in the Teyvat Universe.

These traces were things that could not be recorded by the world’s memory.

Yet no matter what—anything that had once existed would always leave a mark, even if the world itself had long forgotten it.

By gathering every remaining fragment of Phanes’ existence and restoring them to their original form, a new Phanes would be reborn.

As the auroras and the formless energy were fully absorbed into the eggshell, a crack echoed across the hall.

More and more fissures appeared across its surface, until finally, like fireworks, the shell shattered into countless fragments.

Amidst the cascading glow of light, a woman sat curled up, her arms wrapped around her knees.

She looked identical to Istaroth and Asmoday—except more mature.

The fragments of the eggshell scattered like shooting stars before abruptly reversing course, streaking back toward her. As they touched her skin, they transformed into a pure white sacred robe.

Istaroth and Asmoday instinctively swallowed, growing tense.

"I-It’s really her… she’s actually been revived."

Their voices sounded unnaturally stiff.

Nervously, they glanced at their master.

A small sense of fear crept into their hearts.

He truly is… omnipotent.

So omnipotent that it was terrifying.

The consciousness within Phanes grew stronger.

Slowly, she opened her eyes.

Her aura—already far surpassing Asmoday, who had grown several times stronger than before—naturally radiated outward.

Her irises were not gold but a deep, abyssal black.

Cold indifference and divine compassion—two entirely opposing auras—flickered within her gaze.

After a brief second of stunned silence, Phanes rose to her feet.

She looked toward Noah, her expression complicated, lips slightly parted.

"To think that the one who inherited my legacy would be someone so much stronger than I ever was… Truly unexpected."

With just a slight extension of her consciousness, she instantly grasped the state of the world.

This was still Teyvat—yet at the same time, it wasn’t.

It had become nearly a hundred—no, a thousand—times stronger.

It had ascended into a micro-universe.

And those unfamiliar subordinate worlds orbiting Teyvat—they had clearly been devoured through some kind of supreme authority.

The one who stood before her now was at least a hundred times more powerful than she had ever been—and he had even brought her back to life.

Noah’s golden eyes scanned Phanes.

"Kiana?"

Aside from her eye color and apparent age, she looked exactly the same.

Phanes blinked. "Kiana?"

Noah shook his head. "Guess not."

Then, in an unmistakably domineering tone, he declared:

"Woman, I have resurrected you. Now, you have two choices."

"First—become my subordinate."

"Second—I’ll train you until you become my pet."

"Choose."

Istaroth, wearing an expression that practically screamed "I knew it", immediately felt her fear of her former master drop by half.

Did this even count as a choice?

Phanes wasn’t a fool—she had no chance of winning.

There was no way she would try to fight a completely unwinnable battle.

…Besides, if Phanes became their master’s subordinate, wouldn’t that put her on the same level as them?

Hehehe.

Now that’s exciting.

Phanes looked at the overbearingly dominant young man before her, then turned her gaze toward her two former shadows.

How could she not see it?

Her "shadows" had long since been thoroughly immersed in his favor.

She pressed her lips together, hesitating.

"…"
