Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

The faceless and handless statue looked at Ying, and its stiff body movements made it look like an old robot in action - it behaved like a human, but with subtle differences, and the final result was a strange and nightmare-like action.

Kaka!

The place where the statue's mouth should have been cracked, revealing the deep red stone inside. Its head continued to shake slightly, and the broken hand and the intact hand were waving wildly in the air like a drowning person struggling.

"You are late!"

"You're late! You're late!"

"Too late! Too late! Too late! Too late!"

boom!

Suddenly, the walls around the Earth Immortal Temple collapsed towards Ying, and the places where the red paint flowed revealed several deeper blacks, like black eye sockets. The whole wall became like a piece of countless ghost faces with tears and blood.

They kept shouting "Too late, too late" and kept approaching Ying. A dark ghost hand stretched out from the ground, grabbing Ying's ankle with an icy breath.

"not good!"

Ying realized that she had fallen into an illusion, but she didn't know how to break it. The jade pendant on her neck emitted a faint light when the statue began to move, but soon became dim again.

She didn't know what would happen if she was dragged underground by these ghost hands or bitten by the ghost faces on the wall, and she couldn't guess what kind of terrible end this statue would bring her.

She tried hard to leave here, but she couldn't move at all because of the restraint of the ghost hand.

Soon, everything around them darkened. Ying felt that the ghost face had begun to bite her shoulder, and the statue's face with only a cracked mouth also moved in front of her.

"No! No!" Ying did not give up. Her will allowed her to maintain the strength to resist even in the most desperate situation.

"Wind Vortex Sword!"

Ying mobilized the elemental force in her body at the most appropriate moment. The powerful force brought by the wind elemental combat skills allowed her to successfully escape the attack of the ghost face and blew away the approaching statue. However, she was still caught by the ghost hand and thrown under the ground.

"Whoa!"

However, Ying did not panic. She changed her elemental power again, converting it into thunder element, and cast the Thunder Shadow Sword just before her body fell to the ground.

The power of the lightning element does have an extraordinary effect against these monsters. However, this time, perhaps because the opponent was a monster that was transformed by a demon, Ying's Thunder Shadow Sword did not cause enough damage to it. She was still dragged and fell into a dark place.

"where is this place?"

Ying looked around vigilantly and confirmed that the ghost hand had disappeared, but right in front of her, there was a blurry human figure.

"Who are you?" Ying asked, holding the sacrificial sword tightly.

Hearing Ying's voice, the figure raised his head slightly, but did not answer, nor did he turn to look in Ying's direction.

Ying had no choice but to try to get closer to the figure.

Just after Ying took a few steps, she was surprised to find that a pale light was slowly emerging and just fell on the figure.

But the light did not make the figure clearer. Instead, it made him look blurry, as if he was shrouded in fog.

Ying observed the surrounding situation out of the corner of her eye, only to find that the figure and a beam of light projected down actually appeared in the area where her sight was focused.

"what?!"

Ying quickly stopped and turned slightly, trying to get behind the figure.

However, the surrounding scenery seemed to change with Ying's actions, and the figure and light appeared right in front of her again.

"What's going on? Why can't I get ahead of him?"

Ying was a little discouraged after several unsuccessful attempts, but fortunately there was no threat at the moment, so Ying simply sat down and recovered her strength.

But unexpectedly, as soon as she stopped, the figure started talking.

"My Immortal, if I only say your name, can I make my wish come true?"

The figure's words attracted Ying's attention again, but she did not see the person the figure was talking to. Just when she was confused, the figure continued:

"Then I hope my parents will stop quarreling, and I hope that bad uncle will not appear again."

"..."

"Is it possible? Can my wish really come true?"

"Are you really a good immortal?"

"..."

"Then I'll tell you, your name is——"

"■■"

hum-

Ying did not hear the name clearly, or perhaps she heard it but her brain could not understand it. She just felt a splitting headache and fell to the ground with a thud, almost losing consciousness.

By the time she came to her senses, the darkness before her eyes had disappeared, and she was back in the Temple of the Immortals. However, this time, the statue of the deity in the Temple of the Immortals was already in front of her.

"You are late!"

"What do you mean? What do you mean I'm late?" Ying's head was still aching from the name she had just been called. Facing the statue again made her feel more resentful and angry. She shouted and stabbed the sacrificial sword in her hand into the statue's body. As the power of the Thunder Shadow Sword exploded in the statue's body, it finally blew the statue into countless pieces of rubble.

Ying stumbled to the door. Fortunately, Guiyan was still outside and didn't seem to be in any danger.

"Let's go back!" Ying grabbed Guiyan's arm without saying anything, but he failed to control the strength, causing Guiyan to cry out in pain.

"What's wrong? Ying, you look a little strange."

Gui Yan's worried voice helped Ying regain some of her sanity. She relaxed a little and then said:

"There are some problems here. Let's go back and rest for a night. We will go to Linyuan City together tomorrow morning."

A night's rest relieved Ying's headache a lot. As soon as the sky became bright the next day, she set off with Guiyan.

This road was obviously more desolate than before, and the overgrown weeds even completely blocked the road to Linyuan City.

When they passed through the town, they even found that many houses in the town had collapsed, as if there had been an earthquake.

"Have we really been unconscious for a long time?"

Ying realized that the "too late" said by the statue in the Earthly Immortal Temple might not be nonsense. Perhaps the strange boss in Linyuan City really sent her to a long time in the future, causing her to really miss something.

With a nervous mood, Ying and Guiyan finally returned to Linyuan City.

The reality made Ying's mood sink to the bottom, because Ying and Guiyan discovered that the entire Linyuan City had become dilapidated, with only some broken walls and ruins left. The dark red soil looked like it had been soaked in blood, bringing a strong smell of death.

Linyuan City has become a dead city.

"How could this happen?" Guiyan muttered to himself as if in a dream, "Is everyone dead?"

Ying was also severely shocked. Although she had only known Sangge, Xiaonan and others for a short time, this emotion had nothing to do with personal feelings, but was the sadness that people instinctively felt about the existence of "destruction".

Her eyes searched the desolate land until she finally spotted a figure near the city gate.

"No, there are still people there!"

That figure was like a life-saving straw. Ying and Guiyan hurried over and came to that person's side.

They could only see the man's back and the Tiancang Sect's clothes on him.

The man sat on the ground with his head lowered. After feeling Ying and Guiyan approaching, he slowly raised his head, but the first words he uttered were -

"You're late, Ying."

The same words made Ying feel her heart tremble. She watched the man slowly stand up and turn to face them.

That was Sanger!

"Sanger! It's you!"

Ying didn't know whether she should feel happy or scared. She looked Sang up and down, and found that behind him, where he had just faced, there was a person lying.

It should be said that half a person was lying there.

Because that person was left with only half of her body, everything below her waist had disappeared, and her empty eyes were staring at the sky in despair.

"Xiao Nan..."

Ying called out her name, and the feeling of despair crept into her heart again.
