Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

Chapter 28: The Realm of Spiritual Power

As the battle was about to end, Ying and Ryan came over from a distance.

"This young man is quite capable. Now he can be promoted to an intermediate adventurer."

"Ah, no." Wang Chen smiled bitterly, "I was an apprentice adventurer before, and this time I can only be promoted to a junior adventurer."

"Is that so? It's okay. I'll keep an eye on you. There's a lot to look forward to in the future."

After a while, the body of the scorching flower turned into a red spot of light in front of their eyes and drifted into the air.

Is this the return to heaven and earth? Will this happen when humans die? No, since there are funerals and halls for the dead, the bodies of ordinary people should not disappear when they die.

Maybe it's the characteristic of elemental creatures.

Paimon, who was flying in the sky, said regretfully: "Ah! I forgot to collect some elemental nectar."

"Harmful."

Returning to the Adventurer's Association, Ying and Ryan received their reward for witnessing Wang Chen's challenge.

That's right, if you find someone to witness it yourself, it won't cost you money, but asking the Adventurer's Association to find someone is equivalent to entrusting someone.

Both witnesses agreed that Wang Chen could be promoted to a junior adventurer, so Catherine took out a small notebook and recorded it.

"Adventurer Chen, you have met the criteria for upgrading your level and can be promoted from an apprentice adventurer to a junior adventurer. If it is convenient, you can hand me your adventure certificate now and I will update you."

"Great!"

Ying and Ryan left, leaving Wang Chen waiting alone. At this time, three other adventurers came to find Catherine.

One of the middle-aged adventurers saw Catherine was busy and came over to chat with Wang Chen enthusiastically.

"You look a little unfamiliar. Are you an adventurer who just came to Mondstadt?"

"Yes."

Wang Chen, who was bored of waiting, casually explained his identity. Suddenly, he realized that the blond young man among the three was someone he had seen before. Just as he was thinking about this, the young man also came to talk to him.

"My... masked friend, what are you doing here?"

The young man with the Eye of God hanging around his neck was the one whose life was saved by Ryan that day.

"I have just been promoted to a junior adventurer and am waiting for the renewal of my adventure certificate."

"Oh, so you're a new friend. My name is Xiao, and adventurers are all friends from all corners of the world. No matter where you are from, welcome to Mondstadt."

To be promoted to a junior adventurer, no matter if it means completing ten commissions or defeating a hillbilly, you are undoubtedly still a newcomer.

Even so, Xiao still extended his hand eagerly. After all, more friends mean more paths, and a small path is also a path.

Wang Chen could only stretch out his right hand.

"My name is Chen. What are you guys doing here?"

Without waiting for Xiao to answer, the middle-aged adventurer who spoke first spoke first, "Xiao successfully eliminated the Pian Pian Hua alone today, and will be promoted directly from a primary adventurer to a mid-level adventurer."

Wang Chen then realized that the two people who accompanied Xiao should be his witnesses.

Although Xiao was very pleased in his heart, he shook his head and said, "Whether it is an intermediate adventurer or a high-level adventurer, they can reach the level through time accumulation. I am just taking shortcuts."

"I see. Brother Xiao is too modest. How can relying on one's own strength be called cheating?"

After some free flattery, Wang Chen received his brand new adventure certificate. Most of the content inside remained unchanged, but in the personal information on the homepage, the adventurer level had changed to junior adventurer.

"Starting tomorrow, you will be able to accept two commissions every day, and the commission rewards for junior adventurers will be higher than those for apprentice adventurers."

“Can this be improved?”

"Of course, clients definitely want their commissions to be completed by more senior adventurers, which can ensure quality and efficiency. You can think of this increase as a tip. Not only for junior adventurers, but also for each level up, the rewards will increase. When you become a senior adventurer, the Adventurer's Association will also issue rewards for completing four commissions every day."

“Is the treatment so good?”

"Yes, so please keep going, towards the stars and the abyss!"

It is worth mentioning that Wang Chen asked about the commissions that a junior adventurer needs to complete to be promoted to an intermediate adventurer. One hundred of them need to be completed, while an intermediate adventurer needs to complete one thousand to be promoted to a senior adventurer.

Catherine patiently explained that if all commissions could be completed every day, it would take about four hundred days to be promoted from an apprentice adventurer to a senior adventurer. This would ensure that even ordinary people would be proficient in the work of adventurers and be able to become senior adventurers.

If one has the ability, he can kill monsters of higher levels and skip these time-consuming stages, but only a few people can do so.

Wang Chen agreed.

After saying hello to Xiao and the other two, he left the Adventurer's Association.

Although we won an overwhelming victory in today's battle, there are still many problems.

For example, not using all your strength to crush the opponent right from the start, which led to unexpected situations.

For example, it becomes difficult to manipulate elemental forces in the later stages of the fight, which is absolutely fatal when facing a strong enemy.

Wang Chen knew the reason, it was mental power.

Although he could call upon elemental forces from the outside world, he could not do so without restraint.

The elemental power and mental power of ordinary God's Eye holders are relatively limited from the beginning, and then through continuous training, the elemental power reserves are increased. In this process, the mental power also grows synchronously, and there is no disconnect between the mental power and the elemental power. On the contrary, the elemental power usually cannot keep up with the mental power, because they will not faint even if they use up the elemental power, which proves that the mental power has not been exhausted.

Due to his physical condition, Wang Chen can only store one-seventh of the elemental power of an ordinary person. After finding another way to call on the elemental power from the outside world, his elemental storage is basically unlimited. However, his mental power is seriously out of touch. Once his mental power is overused, he will lose control of the elemental power.

In other words, ordinary holders of the Eye of God only need to worry about the upper limit of their elemental power, while Wang Chen only needs to worry about the upper limit of his mental power.

Cheating, but not too much.

The second chapter of "Approaching Elemental Power" has the least amount of content on "mental power", but the fact that "mental power" is listed alongside "elemental power" and "external objects" is enough to show the author's emphasis on it.

Wang Chen had no doubt that spiritual power existed on the continent of Teyvat.

Ghosts like those in Liyue and Inazuma are obviously spiritual energy bodies. The will stored in the Eye of God, the Pure Land of Thunder God, and even the dreams of Sumeru people may also fall within the scope of spiritual power.

However, due to the limitation of the amount of elements, many people do not understand the importance of mental power, and this world does not have a systematic classification and training method for mental power.

The author of "Approaching Elemental Power" gave his own classification of spiritual power levels: lamp, pool, river, lake, and sea.

The classification method is simple and crude. It depends on how much elemental force can be called upon after exhausting all mental energy. If it reaches the amount of a river, it is river level, and if it reaches the amount of a sea, it is sea level.

The mental power of ordinary people is mostly at the lamp level, ordinary God's Eye holders are mostly at the pool level, and stronger God's Eye holders may be at the river level. The Seven Gods are undoubtedly at the lake level and above.

The seven lords of the elements mentioned by the author do not have such worldly restrictions, because all elemental forces are under their control.

The book also clearly points out that relics can enhance mental strength, but their effects are limited.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Chen is not in a hurry to brush up on the relics. Without the numerical nature of the game, the importance of relics in this world has plummeted.

In addition, if you want to improve your mental strength, you can only wait for your life span to increase. In short, there is only one sentence about this article: mental strength is important but difficult to train.

However, Wang Chen, who is experienced in novels, has some guesses, such as constantly consuming mental energy and then waiting for it to recover after it is consumed.

This is a common method in novels and it makes sense. This method is very similar to the way the holder of the Eye of God continuously consumes elemental power and then increases the upper limit of elemental power storage. A more reliable method is muscle training, the principle of which is to destroy muscle fibers and then repair them.

Another method is to stimulate the spirit. This method is generally the most effective when it comes to painful stimulation, and there is some truth to it. But Wang Chen definitely took the first method.

He did what he said. While he was exhausted after the battle, Wang Chen came to the outside of Mondstadt and fired the Wind Vortex Sword at the Fruit Wine Lake. After a while, he felt a little dizzy and the edge of his vision was dark.

Feeling that he was about to faint, he quickly stopped, held his forehead with one hand, and moved his steps like a zombie.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

Timmy on the bridge ran over to support Wang Chen, "The pigeons have started to come back, and I haven't introduced them to you yet. You can't just die like this!"

"I... help me back to the Gothic Tavern."

Wang Chen returned to his room tremblingly. After persuading Timmy to leave, he locked the door, lay on the bed in a comfortable position, then held a wind vortex sword in his left and right hands and fell into a high-quality sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already the next morning, and I was still a little tired.

Wang Chen didn't dare to act recklessly again. He ate his meal obediently and went to Mond Bridge to feed pigeons with Timmy to relax. He only recovered after taking a nap.

Unfortunately, there were no clear records, so Wang Chen could not judge whether his mental strength had improved.

After fully recovering, this time he recorded the total number of times he released the Gale Vortex Sword. According to the classification given by the author of Approaching Elemental Power, the elemental power he could now mobilize was far less than that of a river, but it was definitely greater than that of a lamp, which meant it was at the pool level.

After recovering again, he repeated the process and found that there was indeed an improvement. He released the Gale Vortex Sword one more time than last time.

With a sweet smile on his lips, Wang Chen's eyes darkened.
