In Teyvat, there aren't many who can tear through space and enter the void.
Furina is now one of them.
After tearing through space and stepping into the void, she saw Lu Heng and the other two. Upon spotting Lu Heng, she immediately relaxed.
"I thought something major was happening, but it's just you!"
Furina cheerfully ran up to Lu Heng, greeted Zhongli and Venti, and then curiously examined the speck of light in Lu Heng's hand.
After her arrival, Neuvillette also appeared.
"What are you doing here? Such a huge commotion was caused," Neuvillette asked, puzzled.
The disturbance had indeed been terrifying.
While there was no impact on the real world, those who had reached a certain level of power could clearly sense the terrifying fluctuations of energy in the void.
The level of power was simply too high!
At a glance, it was obvious that some kind of overwhelming force was at work.
It was unsettling.
Lu Heng glanced around.
Those who had come were all familiar faces, while those who hadn't come but were watching from afar were strangers.
For example, the Raiden Shogun.
She sat in Tenshukaku, merely casting a glance in this direction before withdrawing her gaze.
There were others like her.
Lu Heng's realm was already high enough to ignore these gazes. He turned to Furina and explained, "Creating our new home."
"Our new home?"
Furina's face immediately lit up with joy.
"It's almost ready now."
Lu Heng tossed the speck of light forward.
It landed in the distant void.
Then, it began expanding exponentially.
The expressions of those present grew solemn as they watched intently without blinking.
This was the process of creating a world!
For Lu Heng, achieving this was incredibly simple, but for others, it was something unheard of.
Merely witnessing this process was immensely enlightening.
But only those present had the privilege to observe it.
Because Lu Heng promptly cut off the "internet connection" for everyone else.
You didn't even pay, yet you want to leech knowledge?
Watching the intro is enough!
The fact that Lu Heng didn't track them down and beat them up was already a testament to his magnanimity.
In the void, the speck of light grew larger and larger.
Gradually, it reached the size of an island.
Slowly, it expanded even further.
Everyone could see that this vast land had mountains, rivers, and lakes with rippling waters.
As the speck of light expanded earlier, this world had already begun to flourish.
Plants grew, and animals multiplied.
Time in this continent seemed to flow differently from the outside world.
Every second was akin to millions of years, accelerating the world's evolution by an incalculable degree.
"Almost there."
Its pace of time slowed, eventually returning to normal.
Everyone gazed at the world floating in the distance, resembling a suspended island.
Apart from the absence of humans, this world was rich in species.
Lu Heng raised his hand and pointed.
Selecting a specific location, a cluster of pavilions and palaces materialized.
The earth rose, forming a small island that lifted this architectural complex into the air, creating a floating landmass.
On the island, there was a small lake. Water from the lake flowed through streams, cascading down the edges of the island as waterfalls, yet the lake's water level never decreased.
"How is this possible?"
Furina stood by the lake, wide-eyed and full of wonder.
"Is this authority?" Zhongli marveled.
It was akin to the artifact of the Salt God, which could pour out endless salt without ever running dry.
The principle here was similar.
"Yes."
Lu Heng confirmed, then added, "Who knows? This pocket world of mine might even give birth to its own Archons one day."
"Damn, raising Archons in your backyard?"
Venti sucked in a cold breath before asking, "There's a sun and moon, but what about the stars?"
"I'll just hang a few up."
Lu Heng bent down, grabbed a handful of soil, and flung it into the sky.
Instantly, the soil expanded upon leaving the atmosphere, transforming into stars of varying sizes and settling into their respective positions.
Zhongli fell silent.
Venti stared dumbfounded.
Furina, full of admiration, recorded the entire scene on her phone.
Neuvillette finally understood human emotions at this moment.
Faced with this spectacle, only two words came to mind:
Holy shit!
He couldn't comprehend how Lu Heng had done it at all.
A handful of dirt thrown into the sky turned into stars?
Bro, is this even logical?
"Such a method of creation…"
Zhongli shook his head.
Even after witnessing the entire process, what then?
He still couldn't understand it.
It was like a top student handing you the solution and even writing out the answer for you.
But you couldn't copy it!
The knowledge was insufficient—utterly incomprehensible. The "pen" (strength) wasn't sharp enough—it would snap the moment you tried to write the first two characters.
Witnessing the birth of a world firsthand naturally filled everyone with excitement.
The sheer grandeur of creation evoked an indescribable sense of reverence.
"Care to take a look around?" Lu Heng smiled.
"Then we'll intrude."
The three of them didn't head toward the architectural complex but instead explored different directions.
After they left, Lu Heng turned to Furina and said, "See? This will be our home from now on."
"Yay!"
Furina nodded repeatedly.
The island where the architectural complex stood somewhat resembled the Jade Chamber—or perhaps Celestia.
To be precise, it was like a miniature Celestia floating at the same altitude as the Jade Chamber.
Standing at the edge of the island, one could gaze far into the distance.
On one side, layered mountains stretched endlessly, shrouded in a sea of clouds. On the other, the vast ocean roared with wind and waves.
Each direction offered a different view. Furina marveled at Lu Heng's ability to choose such a location.
Wait—no!
Rather, he had first conceived the idea and then created this world accordingly!
Yet it didn't feel unnatural at all.
Because any sense of artificiality had long been smoothed away during the countless years of evolution.
Now, only harmony and natural beauty remained.
Furina wandered through the palaces.
Lu Heng carved a teleportation array onto the main gate of the complex.
The array required energy to function, but for Lu Heng, this wasn't an issue.
If he could create worlds, crafting something like "spirit stones"—ores capable of storing energy—was child's play.
The only limitation was that Lu Heng couldn't create anything stronger than himself or of the same tier.
Lu Heng placed his hand on the gate.
Gradually, the gate's essence began to transform, and the teleportation array engraved on it faintly glowed.
A heavy, majestic aura emanated from the gate.
The others, who had only just left, immediately rushed back.
"This energy fluctuation…"
Neuvillette watched as Lu Heng modified the gate, his lips twitching as he muttered, "The usurper in the heavens isn't even a match for this gate, is it?"
"You mean the Heavenly Principles?"
Venti's eyelids jumped. "Boss Lu, what tier is this energy fluctuation?"
"Strictly classified? Lower Heavenly Tier," Lu Heng said casually.
Zhongli remained silent, simply clapping his hands in applause.
Venti joined in: "Marvelous. The Heavenly Principles aren't even as strong as your front door."
"The Heavenly Principles…"
Lu Heng smiled faintly. "Creating beings or objects of its tier is as easy as breathing."
Surprised?
Upon reflection, the three of them quickly understood.
The same event could evoke vastly different reactions depending on one's perspective.
For them, this was unimaginable.
But for Lu Heng… it was truly effortless.
