Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

"We've arrived. This is one of the abandoned Temples of the Four Winds. These temples have been abandoned for many years, and the people of Mondstadt never come here. There might be wild beasts nesting inside, or Hilichurls setting up camps."

Amber was explaining the temple to Ying.

Dvalin, one of the Four Winds Guardians, was none other than Stormterror. The Temple of the East Wind Dragon was abandoned by Dvalin himself.

"The people of Mondstadt are still troubled by the storm. Every second wasted is a dereliction of duty for the knights. Let's hurry into the temple."

At this moment, the system voice announced: "Ding, the 'Journey to Mondstadt' stage quest has been updated. Current quest objective: Complete the battle plan and block the power supplied to Dvalin by the three Temples of the Four Winds. Stage reward: 1 million Mora, the support skill 'Meow's Blessing,' which, upon activation, grants any designated unit the 'Nine Lives of a Cat' attribute buff, granting it 30% movement speed and 30% attack speed. When the unit receives fatal damage, it will prevent the unit from dying, but will lose this buff. The buff lasts for three minutes, with a one-day cooldown."

"A life-saving skill, this is a legendary sword."

After following Amber into the temple of the Westwind Eagle, a mechanical door came into view.

Guided by Amber, Ying operated the switch to open the mechanism door.

The mechanism door has a complex structure, is made of hard material, and has a fine texture. It seems to be driven by wind elemental forces. It's amazing that such a large stone door can open so smoothly and with so little noise. It's truly an ingenious design.

Huiyuan quietly followed Amber and Ying. Watching Amber help Ying solve puzzles and open treasure chests reminded her of her early days as a newbie, being guided by experienced players.

There were many traps, obstacles, and monsters along the way, but with Amber's guidance and Huiyuan's help, the journey went very smoothly.

"The aura of a dragon! That must be the point where power is concentrated!"

There is an egg about the size of a person in front of you, radiating wind element.

"Let's smash it."

"Wait, Miss Amber. Leave this to me."

After preventing Amber from breaking the egg, Huiyuan placed his hands on the egg and put it into the Eye of God's space. This not only cut off the power supply, but the egg also contained a large amount of wind elemental power, which might be useful in the future.

"That's fine, let's go out."

Paimon's little head was full of questions: "I've always been curious about how you can make things disappear. Can you teach me?"

Seeing Paimon's curiosity, Huiyuan had a good idea.

"Okay. But there's one condition."

"What conditions."

"The condition is that you give me 1 million Mora as tuition fees."

"so much!?"

Since switching to the Litian skin, Huiyuan's tone has even changed a little. Huiyuan patted Paimon's head and comforted him, "Alright, alright, little Paimon. Even if you had 1 million Mora, you still wouldn't be able to learn it. I'll treat you to something delicious when we come to Liyue."

Paimon blushed instantly upon hearing the sweet and melodious older sister's voice.

"Okay, hehe, I'm going to eat a mountain of roasted meat then."

Amber said, "Alright, let's go."

It took less than 10 minutes from entering the temple to leaving, and it was still very early.

After leaving the temple, Amber took out a map and handed it to Ying.

"My mission is complete. I need to return to Mondstadt. Traveler, if you're looking for Kaeya and Lisa, just follow the markings on the map."

Huiyuan also offered his own suggestions.

"Let's go find Kaeya first. Just follow this road and you'll get there. I'll come along too. Paimon, you take the map."

Paimon nodded.

"Okay, let's set off."

After saying goodbye to Amber, I walked along the road and met Kaeya at the Temple of the North Wind Wolf.

After talking with Kaiya for a while, they entered the temple. Kaiya, being experienced, led the way, while Ying and Huiyuan followed silently.

"Freeze it!"

The underwater area was covered in spikes. After Kaeya froze the surface of the water with ice, Huiyuan muttered under his breath, "The True Lord of Freezing the Sea."

Kaiya paused for a moment, then turned to look at Huiyuan.

"what did you just say?"

"Nothing, just keep walking."

There were significantly more monsters along the way than at the previous temple, but Ying and Kaiya handled them all without Huiyuan needing to lift a finger.

Another egg, the size of a person, emanating wind element, has been found.

After Huiyuan put it away as before, Kaeya exclaimed, "Wow, so this is Liyue Celestial Magic! And this traveler, I didn't expect you to be so skilled. The battles you fought along the way in the temple were truly eye-opening."

Yingmei scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed.

"You flatter me..."

Kaeya chuckled a few times and praised, "You've even acquired the humility of a knight. Your heroic act of saving Mondstadt will surely be known throughout the entire city. If you have time in the future, come and chat at the Knights' headquarters. Or, I know a nice tavern."

(Goodness, Kaiya, you should just say you want to freeload, there's no need to bring Yingmei along, and Paimon is a kid who can't drink.) Huiyuan thought to herself.

Seeing Ying nod, Kaiya said happily, "Now it's my turn to clean up the mess. You can go and do other things first."

After Kaiya finished speaking, Huiyuan used the system to scan and discovered a hidden abyss mage. However, she only glanced at it before saying goodbye to Kaiya and leaving the temple with Ying.

(If all goes as expected... Diluc will come to Kaeya's aid in defeating the Abyss Mage. Let's go out first; this isn't my business. Kaeya just said this is his cleanup work.)

It was already afternoon when we came out. Although we didn't spend much time planning the temples, we spent a lot of time traveling.

Looking at the sun in the sky, Huiyuan said to Ying, "It seems we'll have to go camping. Let's head towards the Seven Statues of the Wind's Origin and set up camp there."

Ying nodded and said, "Okay."

(Wow, Yingmei is speaking again, her voice is so beautiful!)

Upon hearing Ying's sweet voice, Huiyuan smiled happily.

"Actually, I have a treasure."

After buying a system-modified version of the Dust Song Pot from the Mora Shop, Huiyuan held it in his hand and began to introduce it to Ying.

"This is the Dust Song Jar, a creation of the Liyue Immortals. It contains a hidden world that can hold the entire city of Mondstadt."

Paimon stomped his feet excitedly.

"Hehe, it's a good thing Huiyuan is here, otherwise I would have thought we were going camping again."

"If you come to Liyue, perhaps the immortals there will give you one. Let's go to a safe place, away from wild beasts, before entering the Dust Song Jar."

On the way, they saw an Anemo Sigil. Paimon suddenly started giving a lecture.

"Ah, it's this thing that looks like frozen wind. Traveler, let's go to the Seven Gods statue over there and offer it to the gods."

(Anemo Sigil? I rarely see Sigils on the street. It's probably because people walk on the streets so often that the Sigils on the roadside are enshrined in statues.)

Huiyuan looked at the divine eye radiating elemental power and thought to himself.

(To be honest, I couldn't see a single Anemo Sigil on the road, and I thought the Anemo Sigil didn't exist in reality.)

Huiyuan opened the encyclopedia guide provided by the system.

--------

The lost eye of the Anemo Archon. A substance formed from the concentrated energy of the Anemo element. Offering it to the statue of the Anemo Archon can replenish the power it has lost over the long years.

--------

(So, the reason the Anemo Eyes were formed is because Tosbatto lost power over the years? The wear and tear is truly terrifying.)

"System, can wear and tear be recovered using the Negative Status Purifier?"

A cold, mechanical voice came through.

"Negation: Wear and tear is irreversible and does not fall into the category of negative states. Just like a person who loses a limb cannot regenerate it."

"That voice... Sister Tongzi, how did you turn into Fairy?"

"Hehe, just kidding, I copied the AI ​​voice from your world's Zone Zero game."

After offering sacrifices to the Anemo Eye, Paimon then proceeded to provide some educational information.

"Did you feel the blessing of the Statue of the Seven? In Mondstadt, people call that frozen wind 'the Lost Eye of the Anemo.' This name signifies that it is worthy of being set in the eye socket of the statue. A fairy tale says that a swallow carried away the jewel that served as the eye."

Paimon described it using exaggerated body language as he spoke.

"But actually, the 'Lost Anemo Eyes' have no physical form. Those who possess the 'Eye of God' collect them and offer them to the Seven Heavenly Statues to receive blessings. Although you don't have the 'Eye of God,' you transcend the common sense of this world. Continue offering Anemo Eyes to the statues; perhaps you'll receive even more blessings~"

After listening to Paimon's explanation, Huiyuan thought to herself: (So, the Divine Eye is solidified elemental power, and offering it to a statue will restore a trace of the god's power. If one possesses a Divine Eye, or can use elemental power like Ying, one can receive the blessing of the statue and become stronger.)

"System, you created my Eye of God. Can I receive the blessing of the idol?"

Sister Tongzi replied in her original voice: "Okay, the new function of divine blessing has been unlocked. I will convert the blessing obtained by the host into attribute points and increase the attribute limit."

Huiyuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Won't the number of lost Divine Eyes be very small? If we have to compete with Yingmei for them, wouldn't that be a bit..."

"In the real world of Teyvat, the number of lost Aegis is far greater than in the game. It won't affect the blessings that Luminous receives. Of course, if you, the viewers, are missing Aegis, it's definitely not because I stole them."

"Sister Tongzi, you've broken down the dimensional barrier."

"Hey."

After Paimon finished explaining, Huiyuan placed the Dust Song Pot next to the Seven Gods statue. The Dust Song Pot floated in the air, so it wouldn't fall, and naturally, nothing like a caterpillar would suddenly crawl into the pot.

Entering the Dust Song Pot, you'll find a large villa provided by the system, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, a luxurious swimming pool, and a Liyue-style residence.

"Wow, is this the Dust Song Pot? It's amazing!"

Paimon stomped his foot excitedly.

Mimi also came out of "Leisurely" and stretched.

The sky inside the system's Dust Song Pot is connected to the outside world; whatever the sky outside looks like, that's what it looks like inside.

Huiyuan exclaimed, "The starry sky is so beautiful."

This is a scene invisible in Earth's cities. I remember when I was a child, you could still see stars in the night sky, but now, with increasingly severe air pollution, you can't see the stars at all in the city. Humanity has gained the convenience of electricity, but there are always trade-offs; city dwellers have lost the right to enjoy the starry sky.

Ying leaned on the railing, looking at the starry sky, and said, "Yes, it is indeed very beautiful."

At this moment, Mimi cried out like a noble prince, as if giving a command.

"Meow~ (I'm hungry, cook for me)"

Paimon seemed to understand cat language and translated, "Mimi seems hungry. Let's rest after dinner."

The modified Dust Song Pot can change the sky on its own. It can be the same as the outside world, or it can be the starry sky of another world, or even a huge star ring can be hung in the sky.

Not only that, the kitchen has an inexhaustible supply of ingredients. It can also change the architectural style, featuring houses from various Teyvat countries, modern, retro, and cyberpunk styles. There are even residential styles from the system's world or other aliens, though they're somewhat anti-human.

It can edit terrain, change temperature, and more. A green-to-pink starry sky, and a comfortable king-size bed.

After having dinner in a new house with a skylight in the ceiling, everyone drifted off to sleep under the starlight of another world. Paimon held Ying, and Mimi lay on Huiyuan's belly in her skin-like state, accompanied by the evening breeze.
