I always found it strange how Azdaha CLAIMS that Zhongli will not die and will stay alive until the end, even immortals can be killed by other beings in teyvat, most are immortal in age and cannot die of old age, but Zhongli really looks like someone that doesn't die

[tomato]

Neuvillete already told that he does not have a constellation, because that's part of the fate system created fot the usurpers to control the life form from Teyvat and he is above that control.

The constellation we saw at the moment is basically a creation of his own for the Melusine to had fun because they love reading astrology.

[alihmaulaakmal]

Zhongli may be full of mystery but one thing is certain his story is not over yet, in the future we will see who he is and how strong he is and how strong venti is

[Johannes_o_o]

About Zhongli he still says that there are only two original archons while irminsul changed everyone's memory and made nahida the first dendro archon
Confirmed that he's from another world

[RenakoAmaori]

Also Nuvi made the current constellation we see in-game so melusine can have fun predicting through his constellation through astrology ( so that's explain why he has different name on story and in-game constellation, and no doubt zhongli's one is also made by himself like Neuvillette and if i remember correctly sovereign doesn't really have constellation since their power didn't come through celestia so no constellation).

[thatonexfallenangel]

Another thing worth mentioning, Neuvillette calls Zhongli “Deus Auri”, but all the other archons by their godly names. And as we know, every name carries a story, not even Venti refers to him as that and he’s the oldest known friend of Zhongli.

[woobluwoo]

Even Fujin said it for the nth time: adepti aren't a race or a species, they are just various magical creatures and even gods who are under the contract to defend Liyue. He is the first of the adeptus because he came up with the contract and was the first to pursue that role.

[kyuiis]

According to Neuvillette himself; That constellation is not his. He just used it so the Melusines could check his constellation without revealing too much about himself.

[FurryBunny]

He was never affected by the Irminsul tree either. Which tells me he that celestial doesn’t have control over Jhongli. He is definitely not from Teyvat.

[nothmm]

I do have a feeling that he is the Sun Chariot. Zhongli has been associated with the Sun so many times in the game and the Sun Chariot fell around the same time Morax first appeared on Teyvat. Not to forget the Sun Chariot fell because of his affair with the Moon Princesses and Zhongli was also said to have been "demoted" in the Chinese Translation.

Also Neuvillette called him Deus Auri which means the Golden God and the only other time we hear this title is from Orobashi's history who had learned alot about the origin of the world. Now the fact that he is only called by this title from two beings who know about the Old World is pretty suspicious if you ask me.

[melsnshine]

In one of the first liyue missions, at the time of the game's release/first year, we ask zhongli about the cataclysm and he says he made a contract that prohibits him from saying anything about it. I believe this applies to the ancient world as well. And if so, didn't he make deals with Celéstia to ensure he could stay alive in exchange for silence? And possibly hide your real nature too

[nbO-fmdn]

Zhongli also made a contract with someone that made him unable to tell where the twin's sister is 👀👀👀👀

[mathew_was_alone]

Actually the thing about Neuvillette's constellation is that it is said that Dragon sovereigns are constellations themselves (just found it other lore video). We know that Mona can't read someone's constellation when it represents themselves like on archons constellation. Neuvillette personally chose that constellation so that the melusines can have fun reading his constellation at the steambird, hence why he didn't use his real constellation because it represents him and won't be able to be read by Mona.

[greenth-mac]

Saying how Zhongli could have existed during the recreation of Teyvat era reminds me of his 2nd story quest where he tell the traveler that he is a witness (descender) and if anyone can remember the events of Teyvat it will be him (not affected by Irminsul).

This theory could explain how Zhongli knows about this, how he knows that history has and can still be re-written by forgetting true events happened in the past as if it never existed.

[juliekm]

Plus Zhongli says “more than”. So he could be 6500, 10000, 20000 or more actual years old.

[cancer]

Two things to point out that *might* contradict your theory:
1) Neuvillette named his own constellation because he didn't want ofhers to see that his constellation was just... "Neuvillette".
2) Zhongli's story quest name is Historia Antiqua or Antique History, which doesn't sound like the name of a constellation.

[Torosiken]

i honestly think he is one of the original dragons with neuvilette, and he just made a contract with celestia when he lost

[shredhead]

Morax says he has lived on teyvat for over 6, 000 years.
Nuevillette is not much older than Furina at 500 years.

[lostmy-]

Wanted to point this out:
1)Celestia-The Heavenly Principles( in both CN and EN)

2) Nibelung-The Heavenly Father( in CN in Neuvillete's Voiclines. In Eng he is called The Formidable Father for some reason. Like why?)

3) Zhongli-The Heavenly Star( Zhongli Namecard in cn)

The rex lapis statue is also the only 1 with a cube not an orb
