Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 342: The Fog on the Return

With a roar of the engine, the off-road vehicle broke through the space and returned to the familiar edge of the volcano.

Ahead is the pass guarded by the White Wolf, and that mountain is also the place where Bai Lie died.

"Finally back here." Kailin sat in the driver's seat and looked around. "But, seeing this mountain, my heart feels extra heavy."

Mo Yan sat aside with his arms folded, shaking his head: "Alright, let's find the way to Linglang first."

"So anxious?" Tianlang, who was sitting in the back seat, poked his head out. "Why don't you say hello to Bailang first?"

"Forget it. He is the leader now and is very busy. Even if he can find time to see us, how can we bear to disturb him?" Karen said.

Zhao Heng nodded: "Besides, we have been in Shaling for a long time."

Hearing this, Tianlang tilted his head slightly with a hint of suspicion: "Oh~ No way, didn't I hear you guys say before that this little time is not a big deal?"

"But this doesn't mean we have to stay here forever." Zi Xuan, who was sitting next to him, glanced at Tian Lang coldly.

"Yes, we have been here for almost two months. Now all we need to reach Mengtian is the guardian credentials of Lei Zun, Ying Ba, and Bing Di. If we don't hurry up, God knows what will happen in reality." Kailin said, tapping the steering wheel with her fingers.

"Is that so? Well, there's nothing I can do. I'll just do as you say." Tianlang said with his arms folded.

At this moment, Kailin looked at Tianlang in the rearview mirror and said impatiently again: "Hey, don't talk like nothing happened. You are the only one who knows the way to Linglang, so stop talking nonsense and show me the way!"

Tianlang then slowly straightened up and began to think: "Then you have to let me think about it carefully."

Well... from Xuanyue to Heiyu, and then from Heiyu to Chicheng, this section of the road has been heading west without interruption until it reaches the Linhui border and leads to Sangang Bay, where the route gradually changes.

"Let me think, Sangang Bay is in the southwest, Shaling is all the way north, and Linglang... oh, it seems to be in the southeast!"

Hearing this, everyone looked helpless. Especially Kailin, who half-collapsed while grasping the direction, turned around and asked, "No, aren't you colleagues? Why do you need to think so long?"

"That being said, you all know that usually when I go to find them, I use my ability to transfer space, and now that my contract is unstable..."

Before he could finish his explanation, Kailin's impatient voice interrupted him: "Alright, alright, come on, really, every time something goes wrong, you use the unstable contract as an excuse, as if your contract power has never recovered."

This complaint broke the atmosphere.

Zi Xuan, who was standing nearby, quickly asked, "Yes, it's been almost two months since we solved the aphrodisiac problem in Xuanyue Town. Has your contract never been stable?"

Tianlang's expression suddenly froze, his fingers unconsciously rubbing his elbow. The carriage fell into a brief silence, with only the roar of the engine echoing off the volcanic rock walls.

"Well..." he stammered, "It's a bit hard to explain. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I'm a half-hearted person. Anyway...ah, let's keep going!"

"Don't change the subject at this time, hey!" the four of them said in unison.

There's nothing I can do about it. This guy is always like this. He'll change the subject the moment something seems off. I don't know if there's a genuine problem or if he's hiding something. Forget it, for now, I'll just follow his lead...

Kailin sighed angrily and then gently stepped on the accelerator.

The off-road vehicle bumped along the rugged mountain road, and the dust kicked up by the wheels glowed with a golden-red halo under the red clouds of the volcano.

Soon, as the car emerged from the valley, the scenery before us suddenly brightened. Ahead lay an open plain, and then, steep, jasper-like rocks surrounded by clouds stood before us.

At this time, Tianlang pointed to the mountains ahead and said, "Look, across that valley ahead, we'll reach Linglong!"

"Really? Then everyone hold on tight, I'm going to speed up!" Karen smiled slightly, then stepped on the accelerator a few times, but this time the speed was still kept at a safe speed.

Seeing this, Mo Yan couldn't help but sigh, "Hmm~ You've made quite a bit of progress."

Kailin glanced coldly, then looked forward again: "Of course, I can drive well too!"

At this time, the sunlight refracted from the clouds, passed through the car window and fell on everyone's faces.

Zi Xuan subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover it, but accidentally saw a huge floating island floating in the sky through her fingers.

"What is that?" She couldn't help but exclaim, and her exclamation quickly attracted Tianlang's attention.

"That's Mengtian." Yue Tianlang explained lightly.

"Mengtian? Is that the place where you guard and gather to worship the Holy Lord?" Kailin asked with her head tilted slightly.

"Yes, it's very majestic, right? Actually, we don't know how it flies in the air. We only know that the Dream Sky contains the elemental power used by our eight guardians. As you can see before your eyes, it is placed in the center of Linhui's land. There is an altar directly below the island with statues of the original eight elemental beasts, which now correspond to our guardian power. Only by inserting all the credentials into the statues can we actively open the door to the Dream Sky."

Zhao Heng narrowed his eyes and looked at the floating island. "I see. So after we gather all the guardian credentials, the path beneath that island will be our only way."

"That's true, but before that, you should have thought of a countermeasure. You all saw the temper of the Thunder Lord in the sky above the Ares tribe. Although similar to the Poison Spirit, the Poison Spirit's temperament is far inferior to hers. Therefore, to this day, there is a saying in the inland that when the Thunder Lord appears, all things will be destroyed and the Pure Land will be gone."

Kailin's body suddenly stiffened as she gripped the steering wheel. "No way, doesn't he even care about your 'brother-in-law'?"

"Oh, yes, Sister Xueqi said before that Li Xueyan is her sister, and you have a good relationship with Sister Xueqi. Even so, could it be..." Zixuan looked at Tianlang again and asked.

Tianlang held his forehead and said, "As for face, I might still consider it a little, but as for success or failure, it's hard to say. After all, apart from the similarity of their names, they have no blood relationship at all."

"Huh? No way!" everyone said in surprise.

Tianlang, however, still had a dark brow as he explained, "It's a long story, and it happened thousands of years ago. Anyway, seeing is believing. You should go ask her yourself when you see her."

"Hey, aren't you just asking us to die?" Karen turned around and complained again.

Tianlang just waved his hand symbolically: "Don't worry, at least I can guarantee this..."

After half an hour of turbulence, the off-road vehicle finally arrived in front of the mountain. Looking up at the mountain, it was filled with fairy mist.

The off-road vehicle slowly drove into the mountain mist. As soon as it entered the valley, it saw three large characters "Hidden Mist Mountain" engraved on the rock wall in the unique language of Teyvat.
