Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

Regarding Hu Zhai Palace...not just herself, maybe she also has a lot to say.

After all, Yae Kamiko grew up under the tutelage of Kossai Palace, and her words and deeds were all influenced by Kossai Palace. She even aimed at Kossai Palace and succeeded her as the palace minister of Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Therefore, for Yae Shenzi, Kitsune Palace is as important a person as him.

Don't tell her for now, just keep it as a surprise.

Then the two of them stopped delaying and set off for Ying's location.

According to Yae Shenzi's estimate, they are currently undergoing the final step of the [Sacred Sakura Great Exorcism]. After lifting the barrier of the sacred cherry blossoms, they will clear away the miasma accumulated in the roots of the sacred cherry blossoms for many years.

The accumulated evil has condensed into a huge [tumor] in the deepest part of Shadow Mountain, and is now tightly entangled and suppressed by the roots of the sacred cherry.

The Root of Divine Sakura is located in the deepest part of Shadow Mountain.

Lin Jinnian followed the Eightfold Divine Son all the way to a place he didn't even recognize, and then watched the other party perform a secret technique and open a magic circle.

"Why are you still stunned? Come up quickly."

Yae Shenzi looked back at Lin Jinnian and said proudly.

"This is a method that only previous palace ministers know. This time I will give you a long experience."

After the two stepped into the magic circle, the surrounding scenery changed instantly, and they were teleported to the bottom of Shadow Mountain.

There is no sunlight here, and the surrounding area is so dark that it can almost be described as dark.

Not far away, you can still see rocks suspended in the air and an inexplicable dark purple light, which looks as weird as an abyss.

After walking a few steps, Lin Jinnian saw the deep and huge cave below, which faintly exuded an unpleasant filthy smell.

"That's it, let's go down."

"Ah."

In fact, there was no need for Yao Shenzi to say anything. Lin Jinnian had already vaguely heard the sound of Ying fighting.

……

At this time, Ying was wielding the edgeless sword, urging the two elemental powers of wind and thunder to attack the monster transformed from filth.

Just when Ying was about to defeat it, two lights and shadows suddenly flashed above the cave, falling like meteors not far in front of her.

One purple and one blue.

Only when the light dissipated did she see clearly who was coming.

"Son of God? Lin Jinnian?"

"Why are you here?"

Facing the two people who arrived unexpectedly, Ying was stunned for a moment, and the sword in her hand stopped.

Paimon, who was watching the battle, even exclaimed.

"Eh?! Lin Jinnian? Son of God? Why are you here too!"

But she was more surprised, because the huge [tumor] hanging above everyone's heads was really scary.

Who knows if something will happen if the traveler is alone, so it’s better to be safe.

"If you can come, can't I come?"

Yae Shenzi looked around, and after understanding the current situation, he felt confident and in a joking mood.

"Besides, I haven't held you accountable for trespassing into Yingxiang Mountain without permission."

"We are getting rid of the miasma!"

Paimon tried his best to explain, but Yae Shenzi just nodded and spoke lightly.

"Well, that's just a way of making amends, so I won't arrest you."

"Eh? Son of God, why are you like this!!"

Were they busy for days, only to not be arrested? !

"I'm just kidding, come to Narukami Taisha Shrine afterwards, I won't treat you badly."

While chatting, Yae Kamiko did not neglect her business. She raised her hand while chatting and laughing, and the monster Ying originally dealt with was instantly dispersed.

"..."

Ying originally carried the edgeless sword to prevent the monster from attacking suddenly, but when she saw this scene, she put down the sword again.

She might still have to spend a lot of effort to deal with this guy... but he was solved by Shenzi in one fell swoop?

If she had known she would have come to Shenzi for help from the beginning, it would have saved her from running here and there in the past two days, and her feet were almost worn out.

"Okay, the next step is..."

Yae Shenzi slowly turned around and looked up at the dark red sphere hanging high in the air, entangled and suppressed by the roots of the divine cherry.

[The tumor] contracts and expands as if it can breathe, pouring out filthy power and emitting a disgusting and ominous aura.

But for some reason, looking at it, Yae Shenzi seemed to feel that besides the miasma... there was something different inside.

For this reason, she calmed down and took the initiative to get closer and feel it.

Suddenly, she found that there seemed to be a familiar atmosphere in the filth, so familiar that it was like... Lord Fox Zaigong!

Yae Shenzi suddenly realized this. He was stunned for half a second, and then suddenly looked back at Lin Jinnian.

Lin Jinnian's expression was calm, and he just nodded heavily towards her, as if he had known all this for a long time, and knew that the miasma in front of him was not that simple.

"You..."

Yae Shenzi returned her attention to the dark red tumor in front of her. This time she could definitely feel the aura of Foxai Palace inside.

Master Huzhai Palace...

When she thought of this name, she couldn't help but lose consciousness for a moment.

Lady Hu Zhai Palace is the daughter of Bai Chen's bloodline. She has a distinguished status. The [Sky Fox] and [Earth Fox] of Mingshen Island are all her dependents.

It's just that to Yae Shenzi, Hu Zhai Palace is just a liar who doesn't keep his word like Lin Jinnian.

At the beginning, like Lin Jinnian, she also said she was going to take a long trip, but in the end she never came back.

At that time, Yae Shenzi was forced to take up the important task of Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Unexpectedly...she could still meet Huzhai Palace now, although it might just be a trace of memory.

However, even memory is enough.

Just as Yae Shenzi was thinking about a solution, Paimon's surprised voice suddenly reached everyone's ears.

"Ah! It's the white-faced miko!"

They looked in the direction Paimon was pointing and saw a miko wearing a white fox mask standing behind everyone.

She is [Hua Sanli], the person who inherited the memory of Huzhai Palace, or... she is the form formed by the filth of the memory of Huzhai Palace.

The flowers dispersed and called in the direction of Yae Shenzi and Lin Jinnian.

"Son of God, Lin Jinnian."

The two of them felt a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling coming towards them.

"Master Huzhai Palace..."

His voice trembled involuntarily, unable to conceal the excitement in it.

Although this feeling was extremely familiar, there was a voice in their minds reminding them that she was not Hu Zhai Palace.

It's just that the impact this brought to them was still too shocking. Even if it was a little bit, it was still Huzhai Palace.

Needless to say, the eighth level god son, even Lin Jinnian, was also shaken in his heart by this.

Huzhai Palace, that pure white figure that only existed in his memory.

The white fox who brought him here to take him in as a wife and take him in.

The name that touched his heart every time he thought about it.

That person whose face has long been blurred, but will never be forgotten...

Chapter 201 Using Miasma

Now that we "meet each other" again, how can we be so calm?

Even if he knew that the person in front of him was not her, even if he knew that she had died 500 years ago.

But he still couldn't control his heart.

"Sorry, I am not Master Huzhai Palace."

After a moment of silence, Hua Sanli spoke.

"I just inherited the memory of Master Hu Zhai Palace and condensed it into filth."

"The filth of memory..."

The Eightfold Divine Son lowered his head and murmured, but Lin Jinnian already understood the meaning of these words.

Although Huasanli and Huzhai Palace are closely related and share the same memory, they are not the same person after all.

"I just called you two by your first names. I just blurted it out out of the emotion of this memory. Please forgive me."

Hua Sanli didn't know Yae Shenzi and Lin Jinnian, and what he said just now was because of the memory of Hu Zhai Palace.

At that moment, guilt, relief, sadness...all kinds of emotions poured into her heart. Under the impact, Hua Sanli blurted out these two names without thinking too much.

There was also a sense of relief.

She didn't understand why she had these emotions inside her, but it was true.

Yae Shenzi took a deep look at Hua Sanli and shook his head.

"Forget it, I don't mind."

She had thousands of words to say to Huzhai Palace, but after all, the people in front of her were just flowers in the sky, and she didn't know where to start.

Lin Jinnian just opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

However, the three of them were extremely familiar with each other, which made Ying and Paimon confused.

What is the situation?Why did things become like this?

Don’t you want to get rid of the miasma?Why did they start chatting instead?

Moreover, Yae Shenzi and Lin Jinnian seemed to be very familiar with Hua Sanli. What exactly happened?

They were obviously busy with the matter of Shenying Dazu, so why couldn't they understand it?

In the flowers, Lin Jinnian and Yae Shenzi, as well as Ying and Paimeng beside them, all had something to say.

But the top priority is to deal with the filth wrapped in the roots of the sacred cherry.

"I know you still have many questions to ask, but before that, please clear away the miasma."

However, the Eightfold Divine Son did not take action immediately, and Lin Jinnian stopped Ying directly.

"Lin Jinnian?"

Ying was about to use his sword to deal with the tumor and dirt, but Lin Jinnian reached out to stop him.

Lin Jinnian pressed the sword in her hand and explained.

"If the miasma is directly eradicated, not only will the memory of Lord Foxzaigong disappear, but also Hua Sanli, the incarnation of memory..."

"It will also disappear." Yae Shenzi added.

Because the memory of Huzhai Palace is very powerful, even the dark disaster cannot completely eliminate it.

After the disaster was defeated, it flowed back into the land of Narukami as fiery filth.

Eventually it became part of the miasma.

In other words, the two have been integrated and have a symbiotic relationship.

If they remove the miasma, the memory of Huzhai Palace will not exist, and Hua Sanli will disappear with it...

But for the sake of the sacred cherry blossoms and Narukami Island, the filth must be eliminated.
