Genshin Impact: Past Events in Dust Rock

"Apepu, stop here!" Approaching the body that obscured the sky, the Great Compassion Tree King stretched out his hand to stop it. "As the god protecting Mount Xumi, I will not allow you to take a single step forward."

"A weak demon god, how dare you?" Apep felt provoked. "If it weren't for the dragon race's decline, how could you, the noble Elemental Dragon King, have the chance to address me like that?"

In this way, the two of them were unwilling to give in to each other, stood on opposite sides, and began their own fierce battle.

But it's a pity.

As the god of wisdom, King Mahasiddha is not good at fighting.

And our once noble Grass Elemental Dragon King Apep has been recovering from his injuries for a long time since that long war.

I have never fought again, and I have completely forgotten all the fighting skills I learned in the past.

When the two of them fight, it can't be said that they are evenly matched. In Gui Zhong's eyes, it can only be regarded as a fight between children.

There is no skill involved, only the purest battle of grass elemental power.

Fortunately, the Great Ci Tree King stood on the right side. Since ancient times, the left side has always been the loser in the battle, so the Great Ci Tree King won narrowly.

Okay, just kidding.

In fact, the real reason is that this place is a desert and grass elements are scarce. The two fight entirely relying on the grass element energy stored in their own bodies.

But Apep had been recuperating from her injuries for a long time and had been staying in the depths of the desert all year round, so there was no grass element for her to absorb.

As the incarnation of the World Tree, the Great Compassion Tree King is not only full of energy itself, but also has the World Tree behind it to provide it with a continuous supply of energy.

It can be said that as long as there are earth veins around, the World Tree is the best backup hidden energy source for the Great Compassion Tree King.

Therefore, the Great Compassion Tree King does not have the weakness of energy depletion.

After a long time, Apep was exhausted and had to retreat.

"If the dragon clan had not been weakened, how could a tiny demon god be able to dominate me?" Apep, feeling sad and depressed, knew that he was no match for his opponent and could only choose a strategic retreat.

Although the Great Compassionate Tree King did not want to allow such a great danger to run rampant in the territory of Sumeru, he wanted to put an end to it once and for all to prevent future troubles.

But with her strength, she couldn't keep Apep at all.

In addition, the problem of forbidden knowledge is obviously more serious, and she needs to protect Guizhong here.

So she did not chase him very far, but just symbolically drove Apep away and then returned to Guisheng's side.

"Didn't catch him?" Gui Zhong looked at the Great Ci Tree King returning empty-handed. Although he had expected it, he still asked.

"The opponent is injured. Although I can defeat him, he is the Elemental Dragon King after all. It is very difficult to kill him." The Great Ci Tree King told Guizhong about the process of the battle just now.

"Forget it, we'll go find her later." Gui Zhong shook his head, indicating that the matter was not troublesome.

"Didn't Lord Guizhong just use all his strength to clear the power of the abyss and was unable to attack?"

"I can't get away, but I still have time to leave a tracker."

It's not that the Great Mercy Tree King hadn't thought of a similar method, but since they were both controllers of the grass element, Apep was extremely sensitive to the traces left by the Great Mercy Tree King, and it was impossible for the Great Mercy Tree King to track him.

However, Apep could sense the grass element of the Great Mercy Tree King, but was unaware of Guizhong's star power.

As a native who has never even left Teyvat, how could he possibly know about the power of the stars outside the world?

What's more, the energy level of the star power is higher than the grass elemental power controlled by Apep.

This is true even for the purest grass elemental power.

"Your Excellency has done this for Xumi. Buyer is deeply grateful."

"Wait, wait, I didn't say I was taking you." Gui Zhong explained the situation immediately, "Her arrival at such a critical time is definitely not a coincidence. I just want to clarify the situation."

"As for the matter between her and Xumi, I will not stay out of it."

"No matter what, Your Excellency has cleared the abyss power here for Xumi. This is already too much for Xumi. Buyer dare not ask for anything else." The Great Compassion Tree King knew very well that he could not have a bad relationship with such a strong man no matter what.

Gui Zhong was very pleased to hear what the Great Compassion Tree King said. She liked this kind of demon god who was smart and spoke sweetly.

"Don't worry, if conditions permit, I will let him stay deep in the desert." Gui Zhong promised to threaten Apep to the best of his ability.

"Please, sir."

Just like that, under the grateful gaze of the Great Compassionate Tree King, it finally flew towards the depths of the desert.

……

after a while.

Finally, he flew to a seemingly ordinary sand dune.

"It's hidden quite deeply." Gui Zhong said in a joking voice.

Through her tracking, Apep was now several hundred meters below Guizhong's feet.

"Let me see, is there any entrance or something nearby?"

Guizhong's spiritual consciousness spread out cautiously.

After a while, Gui Zhong found the hidden entrance from under another sand dune in the leeward direction.

"It's hidden so deeply." Gui couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the entrance in front of him.

This place is not only located deep in the desert, but also rarely visited by people.

Even the location of this entrance is difficult to find.

If it weren't for the spiritual sense to explore, the exact location would be impossible to find.

And just finding the entrance is useless.

Gui Zhong's powerful spiritual sense had already revealed that the area below was like a maze with many connections in all directions.

In the end, they didn't explore the bottom, as that would have alarmed Apep.

But even if it is just a shallow exploration, it still makes people amazed.

Finally, he entered the cave and continued walking deeper into it.

Along the way, Guizhong took his time to admire the scenery along the way.

Anyway, Apep is in the deepest part and can't escape.

In the end, I simply started to study the environment here.

This place is located deep in the desert and is also the hiding place of the Grass Elemental Dragon King.

The rich rock and grass elements create the unique landscape and biome here.

The creatures living here alone are highly researchable.

However, after a brief observation, no further research was conducted.

It’s more important to get down to business. You can note the location first and study it in depth later.

"Next, let's officially meet this legendary Grass Elemental Dragon King!"
