Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

"Death!"

The sword immortal shouted loudly, and the leaves around him kept turning over and turning into flying swords again. They attacked Ying and others with unparalleled sword energy, completely blocking all their retreat routes.

As early as when he blocked the sword energy of the Sword Immortal at the very beginning, Ying felt the trembling of the Guixin Mirror. Although this magic weapon of the Tiancang Sect was useful, it was not very useful. It was afraid that it could not block the Sword Immortal's next attack.

Ying looked at Ling Yue, who also had a solemn expression. If she was in the same state as when she had just entered Linyuan City, she would not be worried about the sword immortal's attack. But now her magic power was less than 30%, and it was really difficult for her to fight with a cultivator of the same level.

"Lingyue, Gu Ling and I will go deal with the sword fairy first. You find the right opportunity to help us, don't force it." Ying said, and then looked at Gu Ling, but before she could speak, Gu Ling said first:

"Are you still worried that I am not a match for that guy? Don't forget, I am your senior!"

Gu Ling snorted and threw the hat in her hand upwards. The hat rolled in the water and instantly became hundreds of times larger, covering the three of them.

After doing all this, Gu Ling put on the raincoat she had worn before and said to Ying and Ling Yue:

"Look, I can beat him up by myself!"

Then, she rushed out of the light curtain of the Guixin Mirror without looking back, and faced the terrifying sword energy of the Sword Immortal alone.

Ying was a little worried at first and wanted to follow, but she saw Gu Ling disperse all the sword energy of the sword immortal with one punch.

"Get out of my way——"

Gu Ling shouted loudly and poured all her magic power into her fist. With just one punch, the sword immortal's countless flying swords were broken into pieces by Gu Ling's surging magic power and soon scattered all over the ground.

"What a domineering magic power! Who are you?" The sword immortal's whole body was shaking, making a dull sound, but his words were always filled with anger, making Ying unable to clearly perceive his inner thoughts.

"I am a disciple of the Great Immortal Zhenyuan, a 300-year-old divine body, and a 300-million-year-old divine tree guardian. Even if I have only been in the world for eight years, you are definitely not my opponent!"

The Sword Immortal was not willing to be outdone. Gu Ling's words made him even more angry. Even though it was just an ancient tree, Ying could still hear the gnashing of teeth in his words:

"You little kid, you're just talking nonsense. Let me see what you can do!"

Gu Ling and Jian Xian attacked almost at the same time, with sword energy and fist wind confronting each other. Compared with the back-and-forth fight between Di Xian and Sui Yang, the fight between Gu Ling and Jian Xian was obviously a fist-to-flesh fight with great impact.

Occasionally, one or two sword energies or fist winds would fall around Ying and the others. If it weren't for the bamboo hat left by Gu Ling to block them, they would have had to dodge everywhere.

"Aren't you going to help?" Ling Yue was always ready to go, but Ying never made a move and even put away his sword.

"No rush. It seems that Gu Ling can stop this sword immortal. Now we only need the last immortal." Ying said as he looked towards the position of the flute immortal. Without the support of the sword immortal, he faced the siege of two immortals alone, and his injuries continued to worsen.

"The Gourd Immortal will not just watch his companions being killed like this. He will definitely take action. When the time comes..."

"You will be the one to hold me back when the two foreign immortals destroy the flute immortal. Then the three of us will be even closer in strength, and you will be at an advantage as you wait for the enemy to tire out."

Before Ying could finish her words, an old voice expressed his thoughts. The gourd fairy suddenly appeared outside the bamboo hat, only one or two meters away from them.

"You know my plan, so you don't even have the idea of ​​helping Dixian?" Ying asked, but she still didn't take out her weapon.

"No," Huluxian shook his head, "You didn't find the key point. I didn't help him because he didn't need my help."

"Huh?" Ying looked at Dixian in confusion. The other party was obviously covered with scars, and his breath was constantly weakening. He was afraid that he would die in a while. Then why did Huluxian say that he didn't need help?

Ying looked around, trying to find some clues, but suddenly noticed the gourd fairy's hand. That hand was the hand that had been completely purified of evil spirits after being touched by Ying before, but now it had been restored to its original state.

"Could it be..." Ying quickly shifted her gaze to the restriction that had been flickering before, and found that the restriction had begun to recover without her noticing.

"It seems that you have discovered it." Huluxian sighed. He put his hands behind his back. The lake water around him rippled and mysterious runes appeared.

"We were born because of the restriction. As long as the restriction is not destroyed, we can be reborn continuously. The temporary advantages of these foreign immortals are nothing. Only by truly destroying the restriction can they win. However, their strength alone is far from enough."

"Which side are you on?"

Until now, Ying still doesn't understand the position of Huluxian. Logically, he should be in the same team with Flutexian and Swordxian, but he not only gave Ying and the others hints, but now he actually wants Ying to help Suiyang and the others.

“Haha, good question…”

The gourd fairy laughed but did not answer Ying's question. Ying noticed that the rune floating beside him became brighter and brighter.

"I..." When Huluxian said this word, it was as if he had used up all his strength. Soon his breath became weak, as if he had experienced a great battle.

More and more runes gathered around the Gourd Immortal. They overlapped and condensed together. They did not seem to be part of the ban, but rather like chains that bound the Gourd Immortal.

Ying looked at the Gourd Fairy and felt that he was neither the highly respected immortal who saved people from danger in the eyes of the townspeople, nor the possessed demon who committed all kinds of evil and brought disaster to the world.

He was like a prisoner, a slave. He struggled but could not resist.

"You are trapped by the restriction." Ying said softly, "No, you are all trapped by this restriction."

Ying's words brightened the sluggish eyes of the gourd fairy, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again. He raised his head and used up his last bit of strength to tell Ying the relationship between the lake and the fairy:

"Demon energy is the most evil thing, the source of all disasters. It not only symbolizes the suffering of the world, but also represents the evil thoughts of all living beings.

However, gentlemen are harmonious but different, while villains are the same but not harmonious. Even if the purpose is the same, the things that the demonic energy does to achieve the purpose are not exactly the same. "

"We, as well as those foreign immortals, are just pawns of this lake, all for the purpose of liberating the evil spirit in this lake."

Ying listened quietly. What Huluxian said now was consistent with their previous guesses.

"But my companions don't know all this. They all think that it is the lake that brought the destroyed town back to life. But in fact, we have long been its slaves."

"If the lake water continues to grow, it will break through the seal sooner or later and bring disaster to the world. But if those outsiders remove the seal, it can also destroy everything."

"You have no allies. From the very beginning, you are destined to fight alone!"

"There is only the treasure in the center of the lake, the one that suppressed the evil spirit from the beginning. Only if you get it, will you have a chance to resolve the evil spirit."

At this point, all the expressions on Huluxian's face disappeared. Ying knew that after saying all this, his self-awareness had also reached its end.

Although it is unknown how this immortal made of demonic energy maintains his own identity, this does not prevent Ying from respecting his actions.

"Fortunately..." The last voice of the Gourd Fairy was heard, and the brown gourd on his head fell to the ground and came just in front of Ying.

"You are ready for this."

"I am also... ready."
