Genshin Impact: Pool Character, Nirvana of the Demon God

(Missing character, to be added later)

Junbai stood on a tree branch, looking down at the Sumeru Rainforest.

It looks vibrant and full of life, however...

With flames flickering in his crimson eyes, Jun Bai's gaze fell on the soil beneath the rainforest. Thanks to the extraordinary vision inherent in the phoenix's true form, he could clearly see everything that was happening below Mount Sumeru.

"Has it already started eroding the earth's veins?"

Jun Bai muttered to himself.

At this moment, in his eyes, beneath the soil, besides the extensive, intertwined root systems of the trees, there were also golden veins of earth flowing like a river.

Not far from the golden vein, dark purple filth was gradually expanding, about to seep into the vein.

Those impurities are the forbidden knowledge that the Red King introduced into Mount Sumeru from beyond the heavens 500 years ago.

If Jun Bai had any doubts about the truth of forbidden knowledge before, now that he has witnessed it with his own eyes, he can confirm that the other name for this forbidden knowledge is the power of the abyss.

After this thing is given another layer of skin, it starts to disguise itself as a new type of disaster and wreak havoc on Teyvat's ley lines and World Tree.

Actually, thinking about it carefully, it makes sense.

Forbidden knowledge comes from beyond the heavens, and so does the power of the abyss; forbidden knowledge is harmful to Teyvat, and so is the power of the abyss; their manifestations are even identical.

When something has the same origin as the power of the abyss, the same level of harm as the power of the abyss, and the same form of manifestation as the power of the abyss.

Then there's only one possibility: it's the power of the abyss.

With a thought, the firelight disappeared into his eyes, and Jun Bai muttered to himself, "Time is limited, let's resolve this as soon as possible."

A golden light emerged from the crimson eyes.

Jun Bai leaped down to the ground, then raised his hand, and golden ripples appeared.

Circles, shimmering with golden light.

A door quietly appeared in front of Jun Bai.

Jun Bai took a deep breath and composed himself.

The next moment, He stepped through the door.

With a slight sense of spatial displacement, Jun Bai found himself in a dreamlike world.

This is the dream dimension, and also the location where the World Tree is rooted.

Generally speaking, only the spiritual body can reach the dream world; no one can appear here with a physical body.

However, Jun Bai is an exception.

He is a demon born naturally from Teyvat—or perhaps he can not even be considered a demon.

As a being born of nature, His identity is one He chose Himself. He calls Him a demon god simply because it better aligns with mortals' perception of Him.

Like Zhongli, as the rock god Morax, he is not a demon god in essence, but is only worshipped as a demon god by people.

Because it is born of nature, Junbai can reach any place within Teyvat.

This is one of the permissions that the origin of the Teyvat world granted to Him.

Therefore, for Jun Bai, coming to the dream dimension in his true form is not actually a difficult task.

Just like the Great Kindness Tree King and the Little Lucky Grass King, who were born from the World Tree, they should only be able to move in the mortal world in the form of spiritual beings.

Since their true forms originate from the World Tree, which is rooted in the dream dimension, according to the Teyvat law that reality and dreams are not interconnected, their true forms should theoretically only remain in the dream.

However, as half-nature demons, they can also bring their true forms into the real world.

Flame Wings reappeared behind Jun Bai, flapping their wings as they rushed towards the deepest part of the dream.

Soon, a towering tree that pierced through the dream appeared before Jun Bai and landed lightly on the ground.
