The Jade Chamber was the culmination of Ningguang's life's work.
But even in this life-or-death moment, she would not back down.
The adepti exchanged glances, silently nodding in agreement, placing their last hope on the Jade Chamber.
They arranged a mystical formation on the plaza of the Jade Chamber, their elemental energies flowing into it relentlessly.
To achieve ultimate victory, they held nothing back, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads, crimson blood trickling from their lips, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
Besides the adepti.
Ganyu and Keqing also joined the effort.
Though their power couldn't match the adepti's.
Every ounce of strength, no matter how small, might be the final straw to crush Osial.
“Now!”
The adepti had reached their limits.
The Jade Chamber transformed into a dazzling aerial palace.
A look of resolute determination flashed in Ningguang's eyes as she formed a seal with her hand, activating the formation.
The Jade Chamber, imbued with potent elemental force, became a blazing meteor, hurtling towards the Osial below.
The people of Liyue Harbor watched, their breaths held, for if this attack didn't defeat the Vortex Magus, Liyue would be doomed!
Under their expectant gazes.
The Jade Chamber crashed towards Osial at breakneck speed.
The Jade Chamber, empowered by the collective strength of the adepti, was no less powerful than a god's strike.
But the problem was, a god's strike was simply inadequate against Osial.
The Osial of this world had been forcibly released from his seal by "Childe" using a forged "Permit to All Things."
Moreover, with Zhongli's presence, the seal's power still held sway. In this state, Osial's strength was a mere fraction of his true potential, unable to unleash his full power.
However, the Osial from the parallel world was different.
Zhongli's unsealing meant the seal had lost its effectiveness entirely.
Without the constraint of the seal, the adepti and the Seven Stars alone were no match for him!
Even an attack equivalent to a god's strike, like the Jade Chamber, posed no threat to Osial at full strength!
Five enormous elemental energy spheres materialized in the mouths of the sea serpents. Then, colossal beams of energy erupted, blocking the Jade Chamber's descent!
The energy shield surrounding the Jade Chamber rapidly dimmed!
Its descent slowed, finally brought to a halt by the energy beams!
As the energy shield shattered, the fragile Jade Chamber could no longer withstand the terrifying energy beams and was instantly torn into countless fragments!
The people of Liyue Harbor crumbled.
A look of despair filled their eyes.
Osial, freed from his seal, was far more powerful than they'd imagined.
Even united, channeling all their power, they couldn't match Osial's strength.
Now, they had lost their power, left to watch helplessly as their bodies plummeted towards the Sea of Clouds.
The gale howled in their ears. They gazed at the overcast sky, their eyes filled with regret and remorse. If only they were stronger.
After truly clashing with a god-level being.
They finally understood what the Geo Archon's presence represented.
They truly grasped the meaning of the saying, "Liyue's strength comes from the strength of the Geo Archon."
It was because the Geo Archon stood at the pinnacle of strength, undefeated throughout the ages, that Liyue was known as the most powerful nation in Teyvat.
But without the Geo Archon, Liyue was nothing but a lamb to be slaughtered. They had been relying on the Geo Archon in the shadows, failing to recognize their own weakness.
The harsh reality tore away their last fig leaf.
“Geo Archon, forgive us...”
This was their final thought as they fell.
“It's never too late to mend a broken fence.”
At that moment, a magnetic voice echoed in their ears.
The voice was imbued with a divine aura, as if a god were speaking to them.
The people's eyes widened in shock. They heard a thunderous roar that ripped through the tranquil night sky.
They turned to see a dragon with a wingspan exceeding a hundred meters, accompanied by a tempest, hurtling towards them. Behind the dragon stood a black-haired youth, hands clasped behind his back.
The fierce gale could not ruffle his clothes.
He seemed to be the true master of this terrifying storm.
Gentle winds blew, rescuing the falling people and placing them behind the dragon.
As they looked at the youth's back, hope ignited in their eyes, just as it had when the Geo Archon stood before them!
The Stormterror spread its wings and soared into the sky.
High above, Su Mu looked down at Osial, towering over him.
Azure light enveloped his body, making him seem like a god on high.
He slowly extended his right hand, pointing towards Osial, gently clasping towards the void.
Before the stunned eyes of the crowd!
The five sea serpents were bound together as if by an invisible force!
They wildly shook their heads, struggling to break free of the constraint!
But no matter how much they thrashed, they couldn't escape. Instead, they were bound tighter and tighter!
As Su Mu's right hand slowly closed into a fist, the massive head, tens of meters tall, was lifted into the air like a small chicken!
The crowd gaped in disbelief!
No one could have imagined that the battle would become a one-sided massacre!
That was the god who had driven them to the brink of despair! Now he was being treated like a chicken?
Su Mu's right hand continued to exert force, slowly transforming from a half-clenched fist to a fully closed one. Osial let out a terrible shriek!
His body, like dough, was compressed inward. If he hadn't been jointless, he would likely have been crushed to dust by now!
Even so, Osial's body was uncontrollably squeezed into a ball. His immense body, with a radius of over a hundred meters, was gradually compressed into a sphere with a radius of just over ten meters!
Gradually, Osial lost the ability to resist.
His body stopped struggling, his azure form losing its vitality.
Su Mu released his right hand, and Osial's enormous body, in freefall, plunged into the Sea of Clouds.
A gilded shield slowly appeared, condensing into a seal, once again sealing this former ruler of the sea within Guyun Stone Forest.
The crowd watched in disbelief, stunned into silence. They had imagined countless possibilities, but never thought Osial would be so easily dispatched by Su Mu.
As if he had simply snuffed out a stray dog on the roadside!
Osial couldn't even resist, let alone fight back. He could only wait for death!
Is this the true power of a god?
Is this the terrifying being who reigns over all of Teyvat?
At that moment, Keqing instinctively shuddered, swallowing nervously.
If she had known that the power of a god was this terrifying, how could she have harbored such naive thoughts?
