Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

"Will there be wind god pupils in the sea as well?"

"Hehe! Actually there is a small island there. You will know when you go there."

Ying marked the two places Xiaowen mentioned. Xiaowen, who was a little too proud of himself, then remembered another thing Wang Chen told him: "Oh, right! I only pointed out the general direction of the island. There may be a slight error."

In the ocean, a slight error in the angle of travel can lead to a huge difference if you travel far.

"It doesn't matter. It's good to have a general direction. Otherwise, if we were to look for it on our own, we would never have thought that there would be a divine pupil in the sea." Wen Yanying changed the mark again and expanded the range. "But I don't know how to get there?"

"Condense ice to cross the sea!"

"Let's take a boat!"

Wang Chen and Paimeng said at the same time.

"What is condensing ice to cross the sea? Could it be that it means using wind element to spread ice element and create an ice road on the sea surface?"

Paimon guessed the correct answer immediately.

"Hiss - I feel like my body is going to be hollowed out." Ying touched his smooth chin, feeling overwhelmed just by imagining it.

"Ahahaha... I'm kidding. There was a rumor that Kaia did this and was awarded the title of Lord Ningbingduhai."

"Kaeya? It doesn't seem strange for him to do such a thing~" Paimon spread his hands, his young face full of helplessness, "But you came to us late at night, you guessed that we need help, right?"

"Indeed, is there something wrong? A few days ago... we also heard about the incident with the chief instructor. He's such a good person, I believe that was definitely not his intention."

During the banquet at the Dawn Winery, Ying and Paimeng looked for Wang Chen, intending to go together, but they didn't see him until the end of the banquet. Later they learned what had happened from the Knights.

"It has nothing to do with that incident. Actually, I want to become a high-level adventurer as soon as possible. The fastest way to upgrade from an intermediate adventurer to a high-level one is to kill monsters at the level of the Frost Tree. But I don't have much experience facing large enemies, so I thought of you."

Wang Chen's dark eyes met Ying's golden eyes that seemed to glow even in the darkness.

"You have fought against the Wind Demon Dragon and the North Wind Wolf King. Last time, you and Xiangling just happened to destroy a frozen tree. I wanted to ask you if you have any combat experience to share with me."

"In fact, I am not fighting alone. I have friends with me. If the Frost Tree last time was replaced by the Explosive Tree, Xiangling and I would have had a very difficult time fighting."

"Don't worry about that. We have decided to attack the Frost Tree. I am also familiar with its weaknesses. I am mainly worried that I won't be able to avoid its large-scale attacks."

"I understand." Ying rested her chin on her hand and thought, then tilted her head and said, "Let's meet at the city gate tomorrow afternoon. I know what you need to learn."

After closing the door, Ying and Paimon looked at each other and said, "The Divine Eye in the northwest of Cape Oath is quite close to the teleportation anchor point. I want to collect it now!"

"I am coming too!"

Ying took Paimon and used the anchor point to teleport to Cape of Oath, and sure enough, they found a Wind God's Eye on a platform halfway up the mountain near the sea in the northwest.

"Xiao Wen is really useful. If she were a guide, she would definitely be better than Paimon, right?"

Paimon was shocked: "Huh? What do you mean?!"

"But as a travel companion, Paimon is better because you can massage my shoulders, but Xiaowen can't."

"Humph!"

After teleporting back to the anchor point in Fountain Square, Paimon flew behind Ying and massaged her shoulders until they returned to the hotel.

"Hmm... I'm so sleepy, but tomorrow... No, I have to get up early today to find the last Wind God Eye as soon as possible. I also have to give Chen special training in the afternoon."

"But I don't have to stay up late or get up early after that, since I've already found everything!"

"Alas, I am the only one who relies on the power of the statue. I can't just watch the statue of the wind desolate. But the kingdoms ahead won't need so many divine pupils, right?"

"Except for the God of Wind who is so lazy, the statues of other gods will probably be maintained by someone dedicated to it, so there is no need to find divine pupils to make up for the power lost by the statues over the long years." Paimon gave an affirmative answer.

The two of them lay in the bed, smiled at each other, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

In the morning, I teleported back to Xingluo Lake and offered the Wind God's Eye on the nameless island. The fully restored Wind God statue was very different from when Ying first saw it:

The cracks that were growing wildly like vines were all cleared away, the bumpy gaps were filled up by an unknown force, and there were even some golden decorations that sparkled in the sun.

Statue of the God of Wind (factory new).

"finally!"

Ying and Paimeng both put their hands on their waists, feeling a sense of satisfaction.

"Let's go have a feast!"

…………

At the sunny noon, Wang Chen and Ying came to a quiet grove together.

"When I observed your swordsmanship before, I found that your basic skills were relatively poor. Although you have improved a lot now, there is still a difference between your body movements and swordsmanship. Especially when facing large enemies, this difference becomes more obvious."

"Uh-huh."

"For example, when fighting an enemy of similar size, there is a saying that 'the best defense is offense', but it doesn't apply when facing a large enemy. So, today we will specifically train on dodging ability."

"Uh-huh."

"When facing attacks from large enemies, the best solution is to dodge them completely, not to block them. You only need to block when you are sure you can't dodge them, which is also a big difference. So you should dodge purely and don't try to block."

"Uh-huh."

"Then let's get started. I'll use wind with no offensive power to imitate the large-scale attack of the Frost Tree. You must use all means to dodge it."

"Uh-huh."

Ying began to spray out huge columns of wind from both hands, sweeping towards Wang Chen.

"You need to move with a large amplitude! Otherwise you won't be able to avoid the attack range."

"Flying is good, but don't stand still after you fly. The attack range of the Frost Tree includes the air. As long as you raise your head like this," Ying raised his right hand and waved at Wang Chen, "it can attack you. And you are in the air, so your familiar body reactions are useless. You can only use the push of the wind to dodge."

"When you are not proficient at it, dodging in the air will expose more flaws and consume much more elemental power than dodging on the ground."

"Use whatever means you have! You must treat this wind column as if you will die if you touch it, so that you can stimulate your fighting consciousness!"

Compared to the last time when we learned the Wind Vortex Sword, Teacher Ying was obviously much stricter, after all, it would be used in actual combat later.

"If you just imagine it, it will never be able to compare to the real crisis..."

"I have a solution!"

Paimon, who had been watching for a while, spoke out his thoughts loudly: "I'm counting from the side. Every time Chen is attacked, he has to hand over 10,000 Mora after the training. Doesn't this make us feel very threatened?"

"This..." Ying hesitated.

Wang Chen's heart trembled. It was worthy of Paimeng's idea. Fortunately, this rule had not been adopted in the dozens of times he was swept before.

"I agree. If you don't push yourself, you will never know how good you are. Come on!"

With some concerns in mind, his movements were indeed two points faster.

However, the ability to dodge is different from swordsmanship. The movements required for dodging are relatively simple, such as a roll, a push off the ground to accelerate, or a spiral ascension. This makes it difficult for Wang Chen to learn.

Because memory is basically useless, the response to each attack is different. No matter what method you use, as long as you can avoid it, it is the best method.

There are no fixed moves, only body reactions and fighting instincts.

Fortunately, compared to swordsmanship, it only lacks a shortcut, but it is not as difficult as climbing to the sky.

He is not a complete newcomer now. He has a solid foundation in swordsmanship and footwork, as well as physical fitness that surpasses that of ordinary people. In addition, the Frost Tree only has a few attack modes, so he made rapid progress after becoming familiar with it.

……

The sun was getting lower and lower, and Wang Chen was hit less and less often, but there was a 360° wind column sweeping across, and he could not avoid it no matter what.

"If you stay on the ground with this move, you can only take it head-on. The real solution is to fly. You've figured it out, but you're not yet proficient at dodging in the air."

It was getting dark, Ying stopped attacking, "You come and attack, I'll show you how."

"it is good."

Wang Chen stood at Ying's position, and a thin column of wind with a diameter of three meters shot out from his palm, sweeping towards Ying.

Ying suddenly kicked the ground and shot up, and with the help of elemental power, he lightly jumped over three meters high. However, Wang Chen raised his hand and let the wind column catch up with him, just like Ying did to him.

However, the wind was created under Ying's feet, and her legs were driven upward. Her originally upright body became one with her head facing downward. Her legs, waist and back bent into curves, turning her whole body into a taut bow, just like an international athlete jumping over the high jump bar to avoid the wind column sweeping diagonally upward.

Afterwards, Ying continued to use the wind to propel her legs, and completed a backflip before falling. She landed gracefully in a white dress, like a white butterfly carp leaping over the dragon gate.

What a nice view……

Wang Chen looked a little dazed, but he did not stop chasing because of this. It was just that the hand that initially swept to the left had already turned sharply to the upper left, and it was difficult to change direction after it was suddenly raised up.

But he still forced his hand down, which had already reached the sky. The originally sweeping hand without blind spots turned into a vertical downward strike, which was easily avoided by Ying.

It can be imagined that once the huge body of the Frost Tree performs this operation, it will definitely not be able to retract the force as easily as an arm.

"Teacher Ying is so amazing!"

"It's easy to do with more practice. But remember, we are now training against the Frost Tree. Different enemies have different attack patterns, so you can't dodge like this against all enemies."

"Uh-huh!"

In the end, I paid 37 Moraes in tuition fees.
