His divine body had long been impaled in the sea by the tip of the rock spear, which had been eroded by the seawater.
Surrounding the vortex demon god were ancient characters emitting a faint golden light.
These characters were enormous and exuded a terrifying, oppressive power.
At this moment, the Vortex Demon God had fallen into a deep sleep.
Far out at sea, Qiu Nian also sensed another presence.
It's obvious without even thinking that it's Ba Che, the wife of the Whirlpool Demon God.
Seeing this scene before him, Qiu Nian was quite moved.
He was still thinking about having a chat with the Demon God of the Vortex.
Unexpectedly, he had already fallen into a deep sleep.
While he wasn't exactly weak, he wasn't in great shape either.
Without external force, he really wouldn't wake up for a while.
Thinking of this place, Qiu Nian turned her gaze to the far distance, to where Ba Che was located.
Ba Che's figure appeared much smaller than Osel's.
His power was only one-tenth of Oser's.
Moreover, this Osel was referring to the fact that the suppression had just been lifted.
His body remained nailed to the sea.
But she is still a demon-level being.
Ever since Oser was suppressed by the Rock Spear, it is estimated that Bazhe has been lingering around this sea.
However, she was always in the deepest part of the sea, and the sea she was in was outside of Liyue.
It didn't make a sound on the sea.
So Morax didn't bother with it.
"Osel's wife?"
"Go and talk to her."
Thinking of this, Qiu Nian flew at top speed towards the direction of Ba Che.
When the journey is halfway complete.
Ba Che then felt a very powerful divine force approaching her.
Furthermore, this divine power felt somewhat familiar, giving her a subconscious sense of fear.
So for a while, I was really torn.
If she were to flee towards the waters off Inazuma, Balzeb would likely be able to sense her as soon as she entered Inazuma's waters.
This leaves her in a dilemma: she can neither retreat nor leave.
He could only glance at the direction of Qiu Nian and then at the direction of Dao Zu.
During the time she was struggling with this decision, Qiu Nian had already arrived in front of her.
Looking at this tiny figure, as small as an ant, Ba Che's body seemed to stiffen.
"It's you..."
"You're actually still alive?"
Ba Che's head stretched out in front of Qiu Nian, and he was very surprised.
Her voice sounded ethereal and gentle in the sea, the voice of a mature woman.
"Ha ha..."
"Aren't you living a perfectly good life too?"
Qiu Nian smiled upon hearing this, and then asked in return.
Chapter 20 Ignites Bloodstained Footprints
"I..."
"We can hardly be considered to be living well now."
The sound of shoving came from behind, sounding very desolate.
Hearing this mournful sound, Qiu Nian also found it hard to accept.
Of all the demons and gods in ancient times, it seems that only Oser had a wife.
Although it may seem that Oser lost, he was actually the biggest winner in the whole game.
"You can live a good life too."
"It's just that you didn't choose to do that."
After Qiu Nian sighed softly, he spoke to Ba Che.
His meaning was simple: Ba Che could also transform into human form.
Go and explore the continent of Teyvat.
"What's the point of living without him?"
"It would be better to remain asleep in this deep sea forever, at least he is in this sea area... and he is in my dreams."
A sorrowful voice came from Ba Che.
"May I ask..."
What brings you here?
Ba Che looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and asked in a trembling voice.
She was afraid she would never see Osel again...
He was also afraid that Ausel would never see him again...
"Nothing, I just came to chat with you."
“I have no grudge against you or Osel; I’m just here to see an old friend.”
Qiu Nian shook her head upon hearing this.
"An old friend..."
"Even back then, I had only heard of you. Now, can we be considered friends?"
Ba Che was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and then felt very puzzled.
"After such a long period of time, we can still see that era."
Isn't this a form of friendship?
Qiu Nian chuckled upon hearing this, then spoke to Ba Che in front of him.
"Want to chat...?"
"I haven't spoken to anyone for who knows how long."
"Being able to communicate face-to-face like this really gives me a strange feeling."
Upon hearing this, Ba Che said with great emotion.
"Since we're just chatting, can I ask any questions I want?"
Ba Che asked.
"Tell me everything you know."
Qiu Nian nodded upon hearing this.
"You are very different now from the person I remember and know..."
"...May I ask, in the early stages of the Demon God War, why did you...?"
After saying that, Ba Che fell into his memories.
Three thousand five hundred years ago.
I don't know when or where.
An extremely powerful, mad god appeared, who had no subjects.
His goal was to slaughter demon gods, without any reason or cause...
Whether they are gentle and loving deities or individual deities who are tyrannical and cruel.
They were all indiscriminately destroyed by him.
But he had goals other than those of demons.
There was no murderous intent in any living beings other than family members and subjects.
His bloody footprints ignited from the edge of the Teyvat continent.
It spread like ripples of death.
Wherever the footprints were, not a single demon god was spared.
Nearly five hundred years have passed.
After that god slaughtered about half of the demon gods, he came to the Liyue region, which was still small at the time.
His next target is Morax, the Rock Demon.
But Morax was clearly different from the demons he had slain before.
The two sides engaged in an extraordinary and unprecedented battle.
Even Ba Che didn't know the outcome of that battle.
All that is known is that the mad god disappeared later, while Morax still exists.
Time passed bit by bit.
