"Solar Calendar Stone" is one of the Noble Phantasms of the divine-level Heroic Spirit Quetzalcoatl in the Type-Moon World.
It is a megalith from Aztec civilization that recorded the sun's trajectory and history, symbolizing the solar calendar of South American civilization, and also embodying the Aztec people's understanding of the cosmos, destiny, and time.
The Aztecs believed that the world had experienced five deaths and rebirths of the sun, which also symbolized the world undergoing five cycles of reincarnation.
When the Noble Phantasm is unleashed, a powerful solar wind blows out from the "Solar Calendar Stone" as its center, destroying everything in a vast area, with its maximum power even comparable to the energy of the asteroid that destroyed the Earth's ecosystem and wiped out the dinosaurs 6,500 years ago.
Of course...
"The true power of the Noble Phantasm cannot be achieved even by exhausting all divine power, but merely releasing sunlight to illuminate most of the island nation is no problem."
Lord Xia Wei raised his hand high, and a palm-sized stone radiating golden-red light, resembling a solar corona, quickly formed, blossoming into incredibly dazzling sunlight the moment it appeared.
The divine power in his divinity instantly decreased by 30%.
"Bloom, sunlight! Solar Calendar Stone!"
Lord Xia Wei threw the Noble Phantasm, which he had brought out of fantasy, straight into the sky.
Buzz—whoosh—
The "Solar Calendar Stone" rapidly grew larger the moment it left his hand, and the sunlight it released gradually became more dazzling.
The night was dispelled, dawn arrived instantly, and the sky turned to day.
Chaotic Tokyo was illuminated by the sunlight, and the bright range expanded ever wider as the Solar Calendar Stone ascended.
"The sky! It's bright!"
"It's daytime!"
"Look at the sky!"
The land illuminated by the "Solar Calendar Stone" was like day. Whether it was chaotic Tokyo or towns outside Tokyo, people who were still awake looked up in shock.
It was an incomparably sacred golden sun.
Beneath the sacred golden sun was a God with an ancient divine wheel slowly rotating behind him.
The moment they looked up at that 'golden sun', the name of this God was imprinted in their minds.
"destiny fantasy great god," "Xuanming Yunmeng Tianzun," "Destiny Bearer, Fantasy God"...
"Great God! It's the highest God!" The people of the island nation immediately thought of 'Amaterasu Omikami' when they saw the sun, but this God was not 'Amaterasu', so He must be a God equivalent to 'Amaterasu Omikami'!
"Oh my God~ Fantasy God! It's God! I am your most devout believer!" Christians held their crosses and prostrated themselves in worship.
God is an "omniscient and omnipotent" God; no matter what form He appears in, He is undoubtedly God.
"Lord Xia Wei has arrived!" Yaozai Ubuyashiki looked up at the sacred figure illuminating the sky above the sun and bringing dawn, his eyes brimming with excited tears.
His understanding of God was still based on the insights from the divine realm yesterday and descriptions in myths and legends.
Only after personally witnessing the power of God did he realize how ridiculous his imagination of Lord Xia Wei had been.
Lord Xia Wei is a 'Great God', an existence equal to Amaterasu Omikami. Amaterasu Omikami hid in Amano-Iwato and caused the world to lose sunlight, so Lord Xia Wei, being equal to Amaterasu Omikami, naturally could bring dawn.
"Lord Xia Wei!"
"Lord Xia Wei made the sun rise!"
The Hashira, who were slaying demons, looked up at the God in the sky and felt their hearts pounding. It was even more exciting than receiving the Blessing from Lord Xia Wei yesterday.
To make the sun rise, a creation-like myth was happening before their eyes!
Lord Xia Wei is the supreme God, so He naturally possesses all the miracles in myths and legends.
"Lord Xia Wei is so sacred..." Mitsuri Kanroji stared up in a daze.
Shinobu Kocho did not speak, simply looking up at the God who, by merely standing in the sky, drove away the night.
"Ahhhhhh! The sun, the sun!"
"Sunlight—"
"No! Noooooo—"
All the demons, under the sunlight, sizzled like pig skin doused in boiling oil, then began to burn. This burning was invisible, with no flames produced.
Their bodies, exposed to the sunlight, turned to ash at a visible speed.
Some lucky demons in the shadows still couldn't escape, constantly screaming and rolling, trying to extinguish the invisible flames on their bodies.
The sunlight from the "Solar Calendar Stone" was not ordinary sunlight; it carried mythical properties and was propelled by divine power.
Even in the shadows, it would take effect wherever there was light. Hiding in the shadows would at most only slow down the burning speed slightly.
Chiyoda Area.
"Ahhhhhh..."
"God! Why does God really exist?!"
"Your Majesty the Taisho Emperor!"
The imperial family, the shogunate ministers' families, all the demons screamed and turned to ash.
"Your Majesty the Taisho Emperor! You are a descendant of Amaterasu Omikami!"
The shogunate ministers, burning in the shadows, screamed at the Taisho Emperor, but the Taisho Emperor, writhing on the ground from the burning, couldn't hear them at all.
"Lord Kibutsuji Muzan—" The Taisho Emperor turned to ash with his last scream.
At this time, Kibutsuji Muzan had already dug a two-hundred-meter deep pit in the forest on the outskirts of Tokyo and buried himself.
And to prevent the Demon Slayer Corps from finding him through mysterious methods, he had reduced his presence to a level even weaker than an ordinary person.
Reduced to this extent, his own abilities were almost completely sealed.
So weak, Kibutsuji Muzan had fallen into a state where he wouldn't even wake up if a demon died and transmitted its memories.
He would only awaken if someone dug him out.
"Oh my God! God, God has descended upon the world! I am a sinner, I repent, please forgive my sins!" A blonde, blue-eyed female reporter, having photographed Lord Xia Wei's figure, immediately knelt on the ground, weeping and repenting.
A priest held a cross in one hand and a Bible in the other, his face streaming with tears of excitement: "Demons crawled out of hell, oh~ my God, you have personally descended upon the world to bring salvation for mankind."
He had believed in God his whole life, and although his faith in God was absolutely devout, with the rise of science, the existence of God had also been questioned, and his faith sometimes wavered.
Now God was before his eyes, His presence here was the bright day.
Under the illumination of the golden sunlight, all who looked up knelt in worship.
Both Eastern and Western people could understand what Lord Xia Wei was, as this was tailored to their cultures.
"Lord Xia Wei... is truly merciful!" Tamayo looked up at the sky, feeling the warm sunlight on her body, her eyes moist.
Hundreds of years, hundreds of years, and she was once again bathed in sunlight.
Yushiro clasped his hands together with a devout expression, but mumbled an indistinct prayer: "Great Lord Xia Wei... Great God destiny fantasy great god... I beg you to bestow the Blessing you granted me upon Lord Tamayo... I am a sinner, please punish me..."
Under the gaze of countless people, the golden sun slowly disappeared, the daylight gradually receded, and night slowly returned.
The sacred God also departed with the disappearance of the golden sun.
But after God left and the miracle disappeared, people's excitement did not vanish; instead, it turned into fervor.
People who had survived the disaster, overjoyed and weeping, cheered for Lord Xia Wei, and countless people knelt on the ground, kowtowing frantically.
