Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

Island Master Mingruo had already made up her mind, and immediately sent out invitations to various forces, especially the Wanxian Pavilion. She also specifically emphasized that Yun Guijun's real body should be present.

Since the weakening of Yun Guijun was a matter of great importance, Ying could not guarantee whether Mingruo would put pressure on Wanxian Pavilion after learning the news. With the idea that less trouble is better, Ying did not tell the truth about Yun Guijun's weakening. Instead, he followed Yun Guijun's statement and described his "young" body in Fengyang City as a younger generation possessed by Yun Guijun's consciousness. So until now, Mingruo and people from other forces still believed that Yun Guijun had a fight with Ye Ping after his consciousness descended.

Then many cultivators from Tianya Island flew away from Tianya Island on immortal boats and went to the nearby sea to build a hall. With the help of immortal magic power, a hall can be built in just a few days. The problem lies in the restrictions that protect the hall.

"In the past, in order to prevent those evil cultivators from taking advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, it would take a lot of effort to set up restrictions each time, so Tianya Island rarely invites other forces to come nearby." Lingyue was also arranged to set up restrictions. As the fairy Lingyue, the most promising cultivator on Tianya Island and also one of the strongest cultivators, she had to put in a lot more effort than the average cultivator.

"It's all thanks to you that you killed Ye Ping. Now the demon cultivators are leaderless. We can breathe a sigh of relief before the next 'Ye Ping' appears."

"But the demon cultivators may also become more radical because of this. Without Ye Ping's rule, those guys will cause a lot of trouble." Qu Lan was still a little worried.

Ling Yue had almost no free time during the construction of the hall. Gui Yan also seemed to have started to practice in seclusion. Her cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, to the point that even Ming Ruo would be shocked for a long time after hearing about it. But these people didn't tell Ying the details, as if Gui Yan had specifically asked them to do so. In short, Ying hadn't been able to see Gui Yan during this period.

Although there are two other palace masters on Tianya Island, their looks are right in Ying's favor. One is as royal as Ye Lan, and the other has silver hair and looks fairy-like, but seems a little dull at first glance, which reminds Ying of Shen He.

The two of them were also present when Ying first arrived at Tianya Island to meet Mingruo, but they never communicated with Ying from beginning to end. Later, when Ying was warmly welcomed by other monks on Tianya Island, they could only nod and smile at Ying from afar due to their status as the hall master.

Although their appearance and behavior remind Ying of old friends, they are not the two people Ying is familiar with after all.

In this way, Gu Ling was the only person Ying could communicate well with on the island.

"Forget it, forget it. Little Loli is also very pleasing to the eye." Ying sighed and knocked on Gu Ling's door while thinking "Is the arrogant Loli considered a female ghost?"

"Is that Ying? I have something to talk to you about." Gu Ling's voice came from inside the house. Unlike usual, her voice this time carried a sense of seriousness.

"What's wrong?" Ying pushed open the door, but her feet suddenly stepped on empty air. As the feeling of weightlessness came over her, she quickly twisted her body to try to steady herself, but before she could do so, the feeling of being grounded returned.

"What's going on?" Ying asked in surprise, and at the same time found that she had come to an open courtyard.

There are cobblestone roads that are slightly rough on the feet, tall and sturdy trees that require nearly a hundred people to hug, and crisp laughter coming from the trees as the breeze blows.

"This is the place where the Great Immortal Zhen Yuan belongs..."

"This is Waihaiju." Gu Ling's voice sounded from behind Ying. Ying turned around quickly and saw two Gu Lings appearing in front of her. Although they looked exactly like Gu Ling, they were solemn and not arrogant at all, but they also did not have Gu Ling's lively temperament.

"Master invites you."

"Master invites you."

The two "Gu Lings" spoke at the same time, and not only did they have the same voice and tone, but even their expressions and behaviors were exactly the same. Ying felt that the two were just like images reflected in a mirror - no, the images in the mirror would be reversed left and right, but not these two.

Ying immediately realized that this was the residence of the Great Immortal Zhenyuan. Compared with the last time she came, there was no special change in the residence, except that the person responsible for receiving her became "Gu Ling".

"Where's Gu Ling?" Ying asked subconsciously. The two lolita girls in front of her looked at each other after hearing Ying's question, and then said, "She is with the Master."

After saying that, the two motioned for Ying to follow them, and the three of them passed through several more courtyards. These courtyards all looked very similar, except that some courtyards had no big trees, some had only a dead tree, and others were lush and full of vitality.

Not long after, Ying and the others walked into a courtyard that was the same as the one she came from. The difference was that the door of the house facing the big tree was wide open. Zhenyuan Daxian placed a stool and sat at the door, while Gu Ling stood behind him and massaged his back.

"Master, is this strength okay?"

"Haha, sure, sure. Your strength has increased a lot." Zhen Yuan Daxian was still in a half normal and half demonic posture. Although his appearance was scary, when he was with Gu Ling, they looked like a grandfather and granddaughter enjoying family happiness.

"Uh, did I come at a wrong time?" Ying couldn't help but smile as she looked at the two of them.

"What are you talking about? Master is waiting for you." Gu Ling pouted, but her hands did not stop moving.

At this time, the two "Gu Lings" who led Ying here retreated silently, and Zhenyuan Daxian shifted his attention to Ying.

"Fellow Daoist Ying, thank you for taking care of Gu Ling along the way. Gu Ling is the incarnation of the fruit of the sacred tree. Unlike ordinary cultivators, she relies solely on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate. Even if she spends thousands of years, it is probably not as good as an ordinary cultivator's one year of cultivation. She can only continuously 'mature' to change herself from a 'fruit' to a 'seed', and then take root and sprout to become a sacred tree. Only then can she rely on cultivation to improve herself."

Ying had never heard of such a thing. She looked at Gu Ling and found that she was also surprised.

"Gu Ling was already a 'seed' when she started traveling with you. Now she has taken root and sprouted, all thanks to your cultivation." Zhen Yuan Daxian said, his eyes full of love as he looked at Gu Ling.

"I don't deserve it," Ying smiled and waved her hand, then asked, "But Great Immortal, you didn't ask me to come here just to thank you, right? Is there anything else?"

"Or what's going to happen?"

"Fellow Daoist Ying is indeed very smart," Immortal Zhen Yuan sighed, "The current affairs are increasingly beyond my ability."

"What do you mean? Has Taoist Guiyi become stronger?" Ying asked.

"Yes, as the appointed day approaches, Guiyi Taoist's influence on this world becomes stronger and stronger. And it's not just me who can feel it. I'm sure the island master of Tianya Island and the pavilion master of Wanxian Pavilion have also felt it."

"But now I understand that Guiyi Taoist is just a participant in the current situation, not the creator. The real situation is far more complicated than I expected."

The words of Zhenyuan Daxian were a little vague, but fortunately he was not a riddle teller. Gu Ling was fascinated by what she said and stopped what she was doing. Ying also waited quietly, hoping that Zhenyuan Daxian would make his words clear.

"Unfortunately, I can only perceive this much. The truth behind this is still a mystery. However, stopping the Taoist Guiyi will not change anything. If we don't stop him, the whole world will still fall into an irretrievable situation."

"But, you also have to be wary of the island owner."

"Are you talking about Ming Ruo?" Ying frowned. Yun Guijun had said that Ming Ruo was very cunning, but he didn't expect that Immortal Zhen Yuan would actually ask him to be wary of her. Is there really something wrong with Ming Ruo?

Thinking of this, Ying couldn't help but ask: "Is she colluding with Taoist Guiyi? Or is she actually a demon cultivator as well?"

"No, no, at least I didn't detect any demonic energy from her." Zhenyuan Daxian shook his head, and suddenly the demonic energy in his left eye surged. He immediately stopped his actions, his expression ferocious, as if he was enduring some great pain.

"Master!" Gu Ling exclaimed, and the next moment she gathered her magic power without hesitation, wanting to cut her palm and use her blood that could purify evil spirits to help the Immortal Zhenyuan.

“Gu Ling, stop.” Zhen Yuan Daxian pressed his left eye with one hand and used his magic power with the other to stop Gu Ling’s actions. “Using your blood essence to purify the demonic energy will deplete your cultivation. You have finally made a breakthrough. Don’t waste it.”

"But I can't watch you suffer!" Gu Ling said anxiously.

But even though he was in great pain, Zhen Yuan Daxian's tone remained calm: "This is my duty. Okay, it's all right now."

After saying this, Zhenyuan Daxian slowly closed his left eye, but his eyelids were still trembling.

"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Ying. Time is running out. I can only tell you to be careful of the island owner's arrangements. She feels very familiar to me now, like an old friend I once knew, but I can't remember her name. I only know that she did something wrong."

"You have to be careful not to let the island owner make the same mistake."

As soon as Zhenyuan Daxian finished speaking, Ying felt a repulsive force and her body retreated uncontrollably. The figure of Zhenyuan Daxian in front of her was getting farther and farther away. Only Gu Ling kept the same distance from her.

There was reluctance on Gu Ling's face. She looked at the Immortal Zhenyuan who was getting farther away, slowly stretched out her hand, but then silently put it down.

Just as Ying was about to leave Waihaiju, Zhenyuan Daxian suddenly let out a light exclamation, and the sound was clearly heard by Ying and Gu Ling:

"Is the island owner called Ming Ruo?"
