The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

"The person who can assassinate the King of Rock with one blow is bound to be unmatched by anyone. Therefore, Xia wanted to inform the immortal masters about this just to let the immortal masters protect Liyue from foreign enemies. The Seven Stars Invitation Immortal Ceremony is at most He will be held accountable by the Xian family for failing to protect him well."

"What's more, Xia has communicated with the immortal masters for more than two months. He knows that all immortal masters are not easy to anger others. Why not invite Liyue to come to the immortal family to protect her in this critical moment?"

This is...right!What he said makes sense!Why did he and his party immediately think of hiding this matter?Xia Yu, who expressed his opinions sternly, left Ke Qing stunned.

If you think about it carefully, if the immortals find out about this matter, the only person who may be blamed is Tianquan Xing Ningguang, who is in charge of the ceremony this year.For the entire people of Liyue Port, the arrival of the Immortal is indeed a good thing.

Could it be that Ningguang couldn't wipe out her own face and self-esteem, so she asked Qianyanjun to come to inform her to stop this man. Was she being bypassed by that guy Ningguang?

"Indeed...that's true." The sad look on Keqing's face became even deeper as she admitted with great sadness that her pursuit was all in vain.

But now is not the time to think about this. We are here anyway, so why not accompany him to meet the immortals in Jueyunjian? If he happens to be there, he can explain the incident more clearly.Thinking of this, Ke Qing kept her hands hanging down and said to Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia Yu, what you said is indeed reasonable. Why don't we go to the Immortal Mansion together..."

"I'm really sorry." Xia Yu interrupted the girl before Keqing could finish her words. "It seems to me now that the Qianyan Army and Qixing in Liyue Port are still in a hostile state with me. I have to think about my safety. Miss Keqing, I can't believe the colleagues you mentioned, and I'm not willing to risk it. risk."

"Ha!?" Keqing, who was treated like this for the first time, was stunned.

He...he actually said he didn't believe it!Although Keqing could understand Xia Yu's thoughts intellectually, she couldn't get over it in terms of face. "I guarantee with the reputation of the Seven Stars of Liyue that I will not harm my husband when I go to the Immortal Cave. If I violate the contract, I will be punished by breaking my promise!" Ke Qing added and found that Xia Yu still looked like he didn't believe him. appearance.

"But Miss Keqing, the Emperor Yanwang was assassinated just now. If you continue to use this set of words when the emperor was in power, can I think you are exploiting the loopholes in it? Don't worry, I will only inform Xianjia that Emperor Yanwang was assassinated. , and will never add any conjecture of his own to his rhetoric."

"You!" Ke Qing, who was trembling with anger, glared at Xia Yu fiercely. How did this ignorant man become friends with the immortals?Trying her best to control her desire to curse, Keqing said: "You can retreat a few dozen meters back until you feel safe and can stop where you can hear me shouting loudly."

What is this going to do?Although he didn't understand why the other party insisted on going to the Xianjia Cave with him, Xia Yu still nodded towards the other party.

After doubling the distance facing Keqing, Xia Yu stopped and looked at the trembling girl. He first squatted down and put his sword on the ground, and then shouted to himself: "Wait until I retreat until you feel safe." You come and pick up my sword when you are within a short distance, and then use the same method to pick up the hairpin I placed in the stream..."

"This way I can finally believe it!"

————————————————————————

Having confiscated all the opponent's weapons to ensure his own safety, Xia Yu, who was traveling with Ke Qing, finally arrived at the gate of Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng's cave.

"Isn't this little friend Xia Yu, and Yu Heng among the Seven Stars?"

The familiar voice in the mansion finally made Xia Yu regain a sense of security. Looking at Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng appearing in front of him, Xia Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Didn't my little friend go from Lishui Mountain to Liyue Port to watch the Seven Stars Immortal Invitation Ceremony? It's less than half a day since we went to Liyue Port, why are you rushing back here? And Yu Hengxing came here this time. Why?" After asking the two of them, looking at their serious expressions, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun noticed something was wrong.

"It's like this. Something big went wrong with the Seven Stars Immortal Invitation Ceremony this time." Keqing, who took the lead, answered first. "The emperor was assassinated during the ceremony to invite immortals."

"What!? The Emperor...The Emperor was assassinated?" Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng's eyes widened in disbelief at this incident. After seeing Xia Yu also nodded, Liuyun Jiefeng's strong momentum was The true king surged out from his body.

"How...how could it be like this! How dare someone commit such a heinous crime!! I will go to Liyue Port to investigate..." Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng, who spread his wings and made a sharp crane sound, looked like He seemed to be carried away by anger.The strong killing intent was like a knife cutting, making it difficult for Xia Yu to breathe, but fortunately due to his training, Xia Yu's complexion did not become too embarrassed compared to the time when he misjudged and mistakenly believed that the Demon-Conquering Sage was confronting him.

"Xianjia, wait a minute! There are many dangers here in Liyue. The enemy hidden in the dark can kill the Rock King with one blow. Then Xianjia, you need to think more about your safety."

"My personal opinion is that at least the same as the True Lord Shui Dieshan and the True Lord Cutting the Moon and Building the Yang, together with Qian Liyue, even if we encounter difficult problems, the three of us will be much more convenient than one person." He suddenly turned towards the immortal. Xia Yu, who was trying to dissuade him, finally saw Liu Yun Jiufeng's expression change. From anger to deep thought, Liu Yun Jiefeng had begun to think about the feasibility of what he said.

"Indeed... it's too dangerous to go alone. I'm going to find Cut the Moon and Build the Sun and Lishui and Lay the Mountain. Let's discuss it in the long run..." Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng, who had given the final plan, felt the sound coming from mid-air. After that familiar breath, he raised his head again.

The brown-black crane and the giant deer, also mainly brown, appeared in the field of view. The real Lord Lishui Dieshan also looked like his hair was blown. It seemed that he had somehow learned about the assassination of Emperor Yan. information.As for this giant deer, although it was the first time for Xia Yu to meet him, he roughly guessed his identity: it was Zhenyue Zhuyang Zhenjun who he had never met even though he had been helpful to him.

As for the figure of the blond girl holding the wings of wind following the two immortals, Xia Yu was surprised when he saw Ying appearing in Mount Aozang.

According to Keqing, it only took a little more than two hours for him and her to fly all the way to Jueyunjian. What did Ying and Paimon rely on to get here?And what's even more amazing is that Ying and Paimon seem to have conveyed the news to the two immortal families, Li Shui Die Shan and Xi Yue Zhu Yang. If you calculate this, they will have less time to travel... .

"Leave the clouds to borrow the wind, and come with us to Liyue Port to raise troops to investigate the crime. Someone among the Seven Stars of Liyue has assassinated the emperor!" The angry tone of the angry Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan was full of murderous intent, plus the words on the side Zhenjun Xieyue Zhuyang, who nodded frequently, found that Ke Qing, who had followed him, was a little scared.

If he hadn't followed up, the sight of the immortals who subjectively had their own opinions and came to Liyue Port in large numbers would definitely make Liyue Port even more chaotic.

"Immortal family, please calm down, the emperor's assassination was definitely not caused by our seven stars!" Keqing stood up and said loudly, attracting the attention of all the immortal families. "The complete process of the matter is like this, please listen to me in detail..."

While Ke Qing was explaining to the three immortals, Xia Yu came to Ying and Paimeng who had finally reached the top of the mountain.

"Ying, Paimon, you two have made me miserable!" Looking at the confused looks on their faces, Xia Yu continued to add: "Do you still remember that we entered the city together? Because you two I escaped when something went wrong in the Immortal Requesting Ceremony, and I became the main suspect of the Qianyan Army. If I hadn't run so fast, I would still be in the prison of Liyue Port being interrogated. "

"Ah! Sorry..." Ying's face was filled with embarrassment after she reacted. "Because there are some special circumstances here, I had to flee the scene." After talking about this, Ying's eyes turned to Ke Qing, who was dressed in purple and was explaining to the immortals, and his eyes became alert. many.

"Xia Yu, I feel that what happened in Liyue Port must be related to the Liyue Seven Stars themselves. There was nothing at the scene, but suddenly the King of Rocks disappeared... Who is this person who came with you? And Xia Yu, you How do you know the immortal?" Ying, who asked Xia Yu in a low voice, was slightly confused when she saw the helpless expression on Xia Yu's face.

"The woman in purple is a member of the Seven Stars of Liyue..." The answer she got from Xia Yu made Ying's expression become extremely embarrassed.

"Um...that means I made a mistake in my judgment?"

"Well, at the beginning, my thoughts were also that Liyue Qixing planned this operation, but when I saw that this member of Qixing followed me to the Immortal Mansion even if he was aggrieved, I felt that Liyue Qixing should be like this too. The victims of this incident..."

After simply telling Ying and Paimon how he and Ke Qing came here, Xia Yu discovered that the eyes of the two looking at Ke Qing changed from vigilance to sympathy. For some reason, Ying even had a look in his eyes. It's like a feeling of sympathy.

It's strange...Have you ever bullied your sister?

Chapter 70 Wear, Ruotuo Dragon King, Liyue’s old stories

"Thank you for coming to inform us about the emperor's affairs. No matter what happens, we will use our own eyes to confirm the situation in Liyue Port." In front of the Immortal Mansion in Aozang Mountain, I learned from everyone that the invitation The three immortals regarding the status of the Immortal Ceremony seem to have made their own judgments. "The travelers, Paimon and Yuhengxing should go back first. We still have important things to discuss next. We will set off for Liyue Port in a few hours at most."

Finding that the three immortals did not mention Xia Yu's name, Paimon showed a confused expression on his face. "What about Xia Yu?" Paimeng asked the three immortals, causing Ying beside him to nod his head.

"Ah, Xiaoyou Xia said that you need to practice here with me for a period of time to stabilize your mind. There is no need to worry too much about this matter." After answering the two people's doubts, Zhenjun Liuyun Jiufeng looked serious after watching the two people and Paimeng leave. Many, it seems that the death of Emperor Yanwang had an extraordinary shock and impact on the three immortals.

"Huh!?" Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's answer shocked Paimeng who was stranded in mid-air. The little guy's eyes looked at Xia Yu full of envy and curiosity, and at the same time there was a hint of tangle. "Then, is Xia Yu going to become an immortal? Hmm... I really want to congratulate you Xia Yu, but how long will it take to practice?"

"It shouldn't take long. What I'm doing here is just simple mental training, not martial arts." After giving the answer, Xia Yu watched Paimeng fly somersaults in the air happily, and then said to the other side high fives in celebration.

"That's great! Then I can eat the delicious food you made Xia Yu again!"

Xia Yu, who thought Paimeng was caring about him, suddenly felt choked up in his heart when he saw Paimeng's cheerful expression. It turned out that the main reason why he was liked by this white-haired little guy was because the food he cooked was delicious?

Well, it’s decided. Originally, it was said that if acquaintances and friends wanted to research and develop new dishes, they could come to them. Now, after returning to Mondstadt, let’s let the familiar friends of the Knights of the West Wind and the Church of the West Wind do it.

----------------------

After bidding farewell to the three of them, the immortals also started their actions. Zhenyue Zhuyang Zhenjun seemed to be planning to inform the Great Sage of Conquering Demons and left first, while Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun returned to his cave. , saying that he wanted to get some things, for a while, only Xia Yu and Li Shui Dieshan were left beside the lake of the beautiful Aozang Mountain.

"Xia Xiaoyou, do you know what is the most terrifying thing for long-lived species like us?"

The scariest thing?The question of Lord Lishui Dieshan made Xia Yu fall into deep thought.

Birth, old age, illness and death?impossible.

Parting with an old friend?It should and should not be the case. They who followed the Rock King in battle in their early years should have been accustomed to parting in life and death. Compared with being terrible, the emotion in this situation is more appropriately described as remembrance.

"Is it loneliness?"

"No, but it is indeed very close." Li Shui Dieshan's tone suddenly became much deeper. "The scariest thing for us is the wear and tear."

"Wear and tear, this is the most terrifying law suddenly imposed on us immortal species by nature at some point. Just like a stone that has been washed by water for a long time will eventually be worn away. The memory of us immortal species is always with us. Accepting the threat of wear and tear.”

So that's it. Xia Yu nodded after listening to the two immortals' explanation. It is indeed a terrible thing for cherished or important memories to be forgotten.Humans with a lifespan of hundreds of years will feel sorry for forgetting, let alone immortals and gods with thousands of years or even more than [-] years.So the main reason why the three immortals are unwilling to join the world now is because of the threat of wear and tear?

But if it was just simply forgotten, why would they be afraid?I always feel that wear and tear is not as simple as imagined. Thinking of this, Xia Yu said: "Human beings will forget a lot of things after more than ten or decades. Compared with the wear and tear that you immortals have encountered, there are two differences." What’s the difference?”

"There is a huge difference between natural forgetfulness and wear and tear caused by laws. If you want to give an example..." After thinking for a moment, Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan continued: "Although human beings' forgetfulness will forget people or things. , but when others mention it, you will find that you have remembered it before, or that it feels obviously familiar."

"The forgetfulness caused by wear and tear is like completely taking the memory out of your mind when you are awake... Familiar people and things, even if there are reminders from others, if these memories are all worn away, no matter what others do, Mention these things and it will be as if they never existed to you.”

This... Hearing this, Xia Yu finally understood how terrifying wear and tear was.

If you want to describe it, the law of wear and tear is like a process of formatting a disk at an extremely slow speed. When it touches the part where the files are installed, it deletes the files bit by bit. It will first make the immortal. The species perceive that the lack of memory creates a certain amount of confusion, and when it is completely deleted, the matter will disappear from their memory.

If there are not many things to remember, that's okay. You can repair them while the wear and tear is progressing and record them into new memory fragments. But if there are too many things to remember, you can't remember them. , permanent memory loss occurs.

This may be the main reason why the immortals are unwilling to get too involved in Liyue affairs...

But why would Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan tell him these things at this time?No matter what Xia Yu thinks, it is inevitably connected with the next action. "Could it be that the Immortal Family means that...the things I need to deal with next are related to wear and tear?" Xia Yu asked Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan and looked at him with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Then he nodded.

"That's right, in your body, Xiaoyou Xia, I feel the power of laws that is very similar to the wear and tear imposed by heavenly principles on our bodies. According to Liu Yunqiufeng's research these days, if this power can be guided, wear and tear will This problem that has troubled us for a long time can be solved."

"However, if the law of wear and tear imposed on our bodies is broken, it will inevitably attract the attention of those who imposed the law on us. In the meantime, I am afraid that both Xia Xiaoyou and we will end up in a state of despair. Therefore, before we are still young, we should It’s better not to expose this matter too early.”

"But our old friend is a little different." Speaking of this, the eyes of Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan revealed a somewhat nostalgic look, as if he recalled the past battles with Emperor Yanwang in the north and south. scene at the time.

"Our old friend was found deep in the ground by the Rock King. The emperor gave it the burly eyes that it wanted most, the eyes that can see everything. In exchange for the contract, it was required to guard Liyue forever. If it threatens the people of this land, if it threatens the people of Liyue, the Emperor Yanwang will personally kill it."

"After the Demon God War in Liyue was completely over, this old friend has been fighting against wear and tear while carrying out the promise he made with the Rock King. Unfortunately... due to human beings' blasting and development of the minerals in the giant abyss, they were injured. Touching it accelerated the wear and tear of memory. Forgetting the promise made with the emperor, when it attacked the people of Liyue, it was suppressed and sealed by the emperor and fell into a deep sleep under the land of Liyue. "

"Wear has a very special property. Once the immortal species falls into a deep sleep and stops its vitality, the wear and tear will also stop running. Therefore, our plan is to use the opportunity of the old friend's sleep to create the illusion that the old friend is dead. Then, the magic circle guided by us will draw out the power of Xia Xiaoyou and break the law of wear and tear on my old friend."

"In this way, even the unknown people who inflict wear and tear on us will think that our old friend has escaped the wear and tear because of its demise. In the meantime, we will also let our old friend who has regained freedom protect you. Safety."

What a well-hidden plan!

For such a meticulous plan, as the core, he must be the top priority. The tremendous pressure made Xia Yu feel extremely nervous.

Although this thing sounds very dangerous, the benefits it can bring are huge.The existence of the Abyss Religion is the biggest threat to him. Although he knows that the Abyss Mage is no longer the opponent of Little Dulin, who can guarantee that the Abyss Religion does not have a more powerful thug?

Therefore, he also needs more powerful bodyguards, the strongest combat power to follow the Rock King Emperor. Is there anything more reliable than this?

"What do you need me to do during the ceremony?" Xia Yu's expression became much more serious when he asked the crane in front of him.

"Hahaha, it's nothing. The complicated process of introduction will be completed by Liu Yun Jiefeng and I. Little friend Xia only needs to stabilize his mind like he did when he was practicing here in Liuyun Jiefeng these days."

"After all, after being sealed by the Rock King for so many years, even if the old friend is freed from the wear and tear, the 'waking up anger' of nearly a thousand years still needs to be let out by roaring a few times, what do you think?" Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun's explanation immediately made Xia Yu understand the reason why he practiced here in Aozang Mountain.

Unexpectedly, this practice killed three birds with one stone: in addition to improving his state of mind, it also helped him get rid of the murderous intention of the Great Sage of Conquering Demons, and could provide help in the next actions.

"I understand. I will maintain a calm mind during the introduction."

————————————————————————

Unfolding the wings of wind, he followed the two immortals and glided all the way across the plank road to the southeast side of Hulao Mountain. The towering giant tree at the bottom of the valley that seemed to have been around for a long time attracted Xia Yu's attention immediately.

Compared with the giant tree where Barbatos often stays in Mondstadt, although this ancient tree does not have the leafy and lush appearance, the long and heavy feeling can be clearly felt from the appearance. Far better than the former.

What is even more novel and eye-catching is the appearance of the tree. What is obviously different from normal trees is that some parts of this ancient tree are covered with a bright blue substance that seems to be crystal-like, especially one of the branches. , the bright blue light shining on the entire branch is exceptionally beautiful.

"This is it, let's land." After following the two immortals Liuyun Jiefeng and Lishui Laishan to the ground, the stone tablet standing in front of the tree caught Xia Yu's attention.

"Xuanhuang is easy to live, but the immortal king is kind and benevolent. Suppress the evil dragon with me, and others should not make mistakes." Xia Yu, who read the content on the stone tablet, roughly understood what kind of creatures these immortal friends were.

It turned out to be another giant dragon!However, before coming here, I heard Lord Li Shui Die Shan mention that this giant dragon is extremely large. Could it be said that it is a dragon with the appearance in Western fantasy novels?

Without leaving any time for Xia Yu to guess, the two immortals who walked up to the stone tablet caused the stone tablet to flash with a dazzling light. The dazzling light made Xia Yu raise his hands to cover his eyes.After the light dissipated, Xia Yu was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear at the changed scene around him.

Is this the magic of the Immortal family?Before I knew it, I and the two immortals had arrived at a huge cave.Making a guess based on the situation, he should be directly under the ancient tree now.

Even if the sunlight cannot penetrate into the ground, the brilliant brilliance emitted by the various unnamed crystal mines on the surrounding rock walls still makes the entire cave clearly visible. With the light emitted by these crystals, Xia Yu could be regarded as meeting the old friend Liuyun Jiefeng and Lishui Dieshan said.

so big!

The giant dragon, which was imprisoned in the magic circle by a seal composed of several huge stone pillars, was over a hundred meters in size. Its huge tail was somewhat similar to the ancient tree above, and its appearance was very similar to that of the Triceratops. It can indeed be called burly.

I don't know whether it was due to being sealed, or because of the boring time all year round, but the sleeping dragon did not wake up due to the arrival of himself and others. The two immortals who saw this scene also breathed a sigh of relief.

Several immortal family talismans flew around Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan and Liuyun Jiefeng. As the talismans landed, another huge and complex magic circle appeared on the ground.

"That's him, Ruotuo Dragon King. In terms of combat ability, he is on par with the emperor. If he hadn't still been grateful to the emperor, the battle between him and the emperor would have devastated all of Liyue. Bar."

"I just didn't expect this scene today. The emperor was assassinated and the Ruotuo Dragon King who had recovered his consciousness would feel what kind of emotions he would have if he knew about it..." After sighing, Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng turned around to look. He pointed at Xia Yu, and then pointed at the center of the array.

"Xia Xiaoyou, please sit cross-legged at the center of the formation and practice daily meditation. No matter how your mind is impacted, please remember that the scenes you see are all illusions and cannot cause any harm to you."

Chapter 71 The seal is lifted, Feituo’s troubles

Sitting cross-legged in the middle of the magic circle, after closing his eyes as the two immortal masters said, Xia Yu relaxed his whole body and emptied his mind in a dark environment.

"Morax! That damn seal you cast! The thousand-year grudge cannot be quelled even by eating flesh and blood!!" The sudden strong male voice caught Xia Yu off guard. Although he could feel that the speaker's target was not him, but Just the wanton resentment and murderous intention made Xia Yu feel timid.

What a level of resentment this is... The overwhelming momentum alone can rival the murderous intention of the Great Sage of Conquering Demons.Xia Yu, who forcibly eliminated distracting thoughts, tried his best to stabilize his mind. After getting used to it, Xia Yu once again paid attention to the sound coming into his ears.

"When I break through this seal..."

"No, Dragon King Ruotuo, have you forgotten the contract?"

"Contract? Don't use that fabricated thing to seduce me!"

"You forgot everything yourself, but I didn't!"

"Noisy! You troublemaker, in a few days, I will throw you out of here!"

It was as if one person was playing two roles and having a conversation with himself. The exact same voice came to Xia Yu's ears. The content of the two people's words that started to quarrel let Xia Yu know the general situation: Ruotuo Dragon King was born. A condition similar to split personality.

The destructive power of wear and tear on immortality seeds is really terrible... Xia Yu, who was feeling emotional, had new doubts. Since the immortal asked him to sit here and meditate, he must want to let him come to this space, but just If this is the case, how can I help the Dragon King Ruotuo who I am quarreling with?

Just when Xia Yu was confused, a warm feeling came from his lower abdomen. The warmth that swept through his body made Xia Yu feel dazed for a while when he touched the rune on his right hand. After the slightly uncomfortable feeling passed, Xia Yu was stunned by the bright light under his feet. God.

This is...the magic circle sealed by the Rock King! ?

what happened?He clearly didn't open his eyes... Xia Yu, who looked around, was surprised to find that the two immortals with golden light all over their bodies had activated the magic circle they had arranged, and he was sitting peacefully in place, and No movement has been made.

No...why can I see myself? ?Just as Xia Yu was scratching his head about this strange situation, Dragon King Ruotuo, who was still arguing, stopped.

"The method of transforming into a god outside the body? How dare someone come before me... Do they want my soul to be destroyed!? Don't even think about it!"

"Wait, Ruotuo Dragon King! Feel the aura on his body carefully!"
