Huang Bai Nanxing Original
This article is mainly based on the stories of sacred relics in the original gods, weapon stories, character dialogues and other materials, as well as the analysis of the research of the original scholars, and mixed with many personal subjective conjectures and unfounded conjectures, please refer to carefully.
1. The position of the seven gods
[The seven gods that people call are more primordial titles [Seven Earthly Rulers].
Divide the earthly world, each ruling the seventh one-seventh. 】
- Wendy
[When the flames of the Demon God War were just extinguished, the last seven Demon Gods each ascended the throne of [God],
Since then, the era of [Demon God War] has ended. 】
- Zhongli
Among the current seven gods, the Empress of Winter Ice decided to raise the banner of rebellion against Tenri; Morax, the rock god, threw the heart of the gods into a deal with the ice god; The Thor Thunder movie gives the Heart of God to someone else (the Son of God), severing the connection with Sky Island; The grass god Nasida chose to exchange the heart of God for the "dark truth".
Back then, the Messengers of Heaven, the Immortal Spirit Clan, were punished by the sky and degraded into the empty shell they are today, and the Great Serpent Orobas was ordered to sacrifice his head by "Tianjing" just by looking at [Sun and Moon Past]. And now once the various actions of the seven gods are known by Heavenly Reason, what will happen is really unimaginable.
[The big snake was sentenced to death by Sky Island because he accidentally read this book. ] 】
- Achigami
In the main line of Meru, we learn that [Tenri] has been silent since the disaster of Canrea five hundred years ago. On the one hand, this makes us suddenly think—this may be the reason why the seven gods began to act—and on the other hand, it makes us wonder: if Tenri has been silent since the disaster, will he know the fall of the previous three gods of thunder, grass, and water, and will he accept the new three gods (or whether these three gods were chosen by Tenri)?
We already know the attitude of the people of some of the seven countries. To be fair, the four sages' imprisonment of the gods of grass and disregard for human life is unforgivable, but the indifference of the Holy House and most of the Meru people is actually reasonable. Imagine, if a little Shota who knows nothing about business becomes a new rock god, and a little girl who can't even lift a knife becomes a new thunder god, how will Liyue's immortal Seven Stars and Inazuma's demon clan react?
Each of the first gods we have seen today has displayed amazing power (here the truth and film are one) and has given great favors to be remembered by the people. The replacement of the old and the new will inevitably produce various problems, and it is also the test that the seven gods system is destined to face. And this brings us to a question that makes us ponder:
How did the newborn seven gods appear, and why did they get the position of seven gods?
Second, the personality of the demon god
Based on all kinds of information, we can propose about five possibilities for the emergence of new gods:
1. Old Theism - Other demon gods in past demon god wars
The likelihood of this conjecture is very low. In addition to the seven gods, the demon gods who participated in the demon god war in various regions either fled to the dark sea to survive, or had already fallen and left only the remnants of souls or bones (wolf king, big snake), or lost all wisdom and strength (Guoba), or were suppressed and sealed (Orcel), and there were basically no free demon gods in a country other than the seven gods who retained their power.
Even the Thor sisters in a special situation, if they accept the statement of "Jane Says Chengyan True Shadow Fight", it is: Shadow feels that she is not as good as her sister, so she chooses to eliminate the fall and help Zhen go to Luo Tianjing, and then Thor-Zhen recalls the divine consciousness of Shadow, reshapes her figure, and places her as a shadow warrior. The phrase "only seven gods survive" even appears explicitly in the book.
(Regarding the authenticity of the content of "Jane Said", Shadow's evaluation is roughly true, but the plot behind is wishful thinking.)
The key here is whether the first volume we have seen so far is the whole text, or whether it is actually divided into multiple volumes like the Guardian Immortal Yasha.
It is only regarded here as a very unreliable reference, please pay attention)
2. Dependencyism - similar to the existence of the previous generation of gods
Barbatos, the god of wind, was originally a ray of a thousand winds without a shred of divine dignity, and he became the god of wind after the collapse of the old god seat. Putting aside issues such as the conditions for obtaining the Demon God's Personality, here we only need to make it clear that the Demon God's identity can be obtained the day after tomorrow.
Then, the immortals of Liyue, the demon clan of Inazuma, and the Lannara / Zhenling / Hana spirit of Meru may all be promoted to the demon god after the death of the old god, and then rank among the seven gods. If it is a dependant who accompanied the previous generation to win the Demon God War, it is easier to gain the recognition of the people of a country.
[Later called "Barbatos", he did not have the personality of a demon god at that time,
It's just a subtle elemental spirit in the wind, a wisp of "wind that can bring small turns and hope". 】
3. Doppelgänger – the existence of some kind of special relationship with the previous gods
There have been many examples of this theory, Raiden really reshaped his sister's figure (doubtful), the tree king broke off the branches of the world tree to create his own [reincarnation] Nasida, and the three gods of water, fire and ice after that may also be some kind of existence created by the previous generation. Doppelgänger is similar to dependency, but Nasida and Shadow are clearly different from ordinary dependents. And the acceptance of them by the people depends on the specific time of their birth.
4. "Genshin" theory - the holder of the God's Eye who landed on Sky Island
"Every owner of the Eye of God has the qualifications to become a god, so it is called [Genshin], and has the qualification to land on Sky Island", this is what Wendy tells us in the main line of Mond,
"The chosen bearers will rise into the sky after death, and those heroes will become part of the gods and continue to protect the people", this is also the saying believed by most residents of the Seven Kingdoms. Legend has it that the founder of the Knights of the Zephyr, [Knight of the Lion's Teeth] Winessa, landed on Sky Island thousands of years ago and became the god of Eternal Protector.
However, Wendy, who told us this, suddenly changed her expression when faced with Winessa's inquiry about Sky Island, and then changed the topic bluntly, and the executive [doctor] expressed clear disdain for these statements. Is the so-called "landing on Sky Island" really a good thing? I personally doubt this.
5. Adventism – the gods on the sky island
The official has always used the word "gods" to refer to the participants who overthrew Canrea and resisted the invasion of the abyss, and we don't know how many gods there are on Sky Island, but we can clearly say that the [Maintainer of Heavenly Reason] has made a move in the disaster.
[The last descendant of the fairy] Flower God - Nabu Marikata and [Son of the Sky] Red King Ahmal are inextricably linked to Sky Island, and both have participated in the Demon God War in the Meru region, so after the death of the previous god, the conjecture that a god on Sky Island will come to the earth to take over is not small.
3. The Heart of God
In the main line of Liyue, Ning Guang once said that "the next rock god will appear sooner or later", and no matter why Ning Guang is so determined, if the new rock god really appears, how can Ning Guang confirm the identity of the other party?
Similarly, why did the sages of the Decree Academy five hundred years ago immediately determine that Nasida, who was like a child, at that time, was the newborn grass god? Is it because of the similar face to the Tree King, because of the same dream power as the Tree King, or because... The Heart of the Grass God in Nasida's body?
The Heart of God is a higher elemental control center and a symbol of the seat of the seven gods.
- Wendy
The Heart of God serves as a symbol of [Heavenly Principle] control over the continent of Tivat and all [laws]...
- Nasida
The heart of the god is the symbol of the seat of the seven gods, and Morax's identity in the Demon God War is [Demon God of Rock], and he became the [God of Rock] after ranking among the seven gods. And through Thor's Heart, the executive officer [skirmishers] have many powers such as summoning thunder and linking the world tree, and almost become a new generation of [gods]. From this, we can put forward such a conjecture:
The seven hearts of the gods correspond to the authority of the seven kingdoms, and the final winner of the demon god war receives the heart of the god and ranks among the seven gods;
And after the death of the previous god, if there are multiple new or old demon gods in a country, the winner must be decided.
If there is only a single demon god in a country, the demon god is directly promoted to the rank of seven gods.
[Tianli] may have formulated laws that operate on their own that are similar to the above conjectures, and if this is the case, then the new seven gods are chosen by the law itself, and should be recognized by Tianli. And the above conjecture can be condensed into one sentence:
He who gains the heart of God receives the seven kingdoms
4. The current water god
[Now that the god position has changed, the seven gods at the cocktail party have passed away and the five gods have died...
Of the current seven earthly rulers, the god of grass in Meru is the youngest, only five hundred years old. 】
- Ganyu
Among the current seven gods, except for the two gods of Feng Yan, the first generation, the other five gods have been replaced. Thor-shadow is a transition between the first god and the new god, and the fire god and the ice god are too far away from us, compared to the new grass god Nasida and the new water god Fu Carlos. As the plot progresses, we already have a certain understanding of the water god and Fontaine, and we can use the above theory to make a preliminary analysis of the water god replacement (mainly using the theory of dependents and doppelgängers).
Through the completion of the world mission "Hevarena of Good and Evil", we learn that five hundred years ago, the previous water god sacrificed all his strength to suppress the disaster, and the body after death turned into a sea of nectar, and the divine soul could not return to the cycle because of the pollution of the abyss. Fortunately, the Great Mercy Tree King gave birth to ten thousand mother trees, so that the water god spirit could reside in the [Holy Lotus] Gaujana inside the mother tree.
[The old lord of the land of water perished in the great change, and his body turned into a pure sea of nectar...]
At the same time, we learn that in the past, there was an institution called the Narcissus Cross in Fontaine, and the dean of the academy was a water elemental creature with a will, who embarked on a journey with the vice dean in order to defeat the source of evil, but could not return. A few years later, René and Jacob, scholars from the Cross Academy, came to the desert where the previous water god was buried, the source of the disaster of separation, to investigate, and accidentally found that the sacred lotus actually coincided with the body tissues of the two of them...
In this regard, I personally very much doubt that Rene and the others are water elemental beings like pure water elves. It is mentioned in Yaoyao's character story that after listening to the story of the Liyue immortals, a Fontaine stubbornly believes that the immortals must all work in state organs. Pure water can be transformed into a variety of forms, and I am afraid that Rene, Dean and other members of the Cross Academy are fully integrated into the water elemental life of human society, and this can explain why their body tissues are similar to the composition of the Holy Lotus.
According to dependency, the new water god is most likely to appear among the members of the Narcissus Cross. The doppelgänger theory is an extension of dependency, just as the grass god and Lannaro both have dreamy powers, and the water god and pure water spirit may also have some similar characteristics.
Then, referring to the characteristics of pure water elves can create water illusions, can integrate with each other and share memory emotions, but the dominant consciousness is easy to collapse due to small evil thoughts, etc., the relationship between the former water god and the new water god is compared to the pure water elf, the former water god is the pure water spirit itself, and the current water god is the water ball sparrow she created.
Furthermore, the present water god may be a separation of a certain thought/personality of the former water god, similar to the slice of [Doctor] and the dual personality of Leira.
The birth problem of the present water god is solved, and the next step is the heart of God. We don't know exactly how the heart of God is transferred, dissipating into energy after the death of the old god, and then reuniting in the body of the new god? Or can it only be handed over in physical form?
When the two gods of thunder grass changed, true and shadow, tree king and small grass god were all in the same position. And when the former water god died, where was the current water god Fu Carlos? Does she have the Heart of the Water God, and if so, how did she get it?
Flower Spirit-Zuerwan mentioned that after the disaster, many pure water spirits came to the desert, seemingly looking for something, but quickly scattered after seeing ten thousand mother trees. And what they are looking for is the remains of the former water god, or...
【Heart of the Water God】?
