Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

In the blink of an eye, Lantian appeared below the slope where Xiaoganyu was, stretching out his hands and crouching down, waiting intently for Xiaoganyu to roll down and throw herself into his arms.

puff!

Little Gan Yu bumped steadily into Lan Tian's arms. To prevent Little Gan Yu from getting hurt, Lan Tian caught her and then kicked off backward, sliding down the ground and creating a five-meter-long ditch. Only then did Lan Tian and Little Gan Yu slowly stop moving.

"Little Gan Yu?"

After carefully checking on the condition of the little Gan Yu in his arms, Lan Tian called out softly.

"Hey..."

Little Gan Yu, who was tightly nestled in Lan Tian's arms, let out a soft cry of fear after hearing Lan Tian's call. Her whole body was trembling slightly, clearly frightened by what had just happened.

"Don't be afraid, little Gan Yu~"

Seeing that Xiao Ganyu was frightened, Lantian immediately sat up, supporting Xiao Ganyu with one hand and gently stroking its fur with the other to comfort it.

Under the gentle soothing touch of the blue sky, Xiao Ganyu gradually stopped trembling and began to gently rub against the blue sky's palm.

"Don't run that high to eat plants next time!"

"Hey~"

Lan Tian spoke softly to Xiao Gan Yu, showing no anger at Xiao Gan Yu's wanton nibbling at the flowers and plants. Xiao Gan Yu, in Lan Tian's arms, obediently called out to Lan Tian.

The plants that Xiao Ganyu has eaten will grow back in a day or two, because Xiao Ganyu only eats the tender leaves of the plants, not the whole plant.

"So good~"

Lan Tian chuckled and gently patted Xiao Gan Yu's head.

"Go have fun, but remember not to run so high again!"

"Hey!"

As soon as Lantian put Xiao Ganyu down, Xiao Ganyu turned her head and called out happily to Lantian. Then she ran joyfully into the depths of the flower sea and disappeared from Lantian's sight in an instant.

Hopefully, Xiao Ganyu will learn from this experience and not roll down the slope again. She shouldn't... right?

Thinking about this, Lan Tian felt a little uncertain, so he simply stopped thinking about it and started to sit cross-legged in meditation.

"The pain in my mind just now wasn't caused by the power of Heaven's Law. Instead, it felt like... a warning from something closely connected to me... no, to my Asura God Heart. Could it be one of the rulers?"

Thinking this, Lan Tian began to calm his mind, closed his eyes and sat down to meditate, activating his Asura Vision to carefully examine his body.

This was the first time since Lantian's birth that he had formally closed his eyes and sat in meditation to introspect his body, and also the first time he had opened his Asura Vision to observe his body.

During a long period of observation, in Lan Tian's field of vision, a divine heart, with a color of starry blue and white accents, was quietly suspended inside Lan Tian's body. The upper third of the divine heart was a white longsword that was vertically stuck in the ground, and the remaining two-thirds was the base of an ordinary chess piece.

The most eye-catching feature is the ring of seven elemental symbols on the base of the Heart of God. Except for the water, rock, lightning, and grass elemental symbols which are lit up, the fire, ice, and wind elemental symbols are still dim. The white longsword at the top of the Heart of God is brighter than when Blue Sky first took out the Heart of God, and is in a semi-lit state.

However, these were not the main points of Lan Tian's attention. The main point was that, under Lan Tian's Shura vision, a small, faintly visible white thread was connected at one end to the heart of the Shura God, and at the other end to a dark place.

Hmm... at least from Lan Tian's perspective, the other end of that thread wasn't connected to himself, but to someone else. But who could it be?

It was only after several days of careful investigation by Lan Tian, ​​who had activated his Asura Vision, that this was discovered, which shows how much Lan Tian cared about it.

With this in mind, Lan Tian, ​​with the help of the Asura Vision, began to slowly probe along the thread on the Heart of God through his divine sense. However, Lan Tian's divine sense was forcibly interrupted.

Lan Tian frowned slightly upon seeing this, wondering to himself:

[My divine sense was forcibly interrupted? Did some force block my divine sense's exploration? No, I clearly didn't sense any fluctuations in power...]

Thinking this, Lan Tian once again probed with his divine sense, but it was forcibly interrupted again after only a few seconds longer than last time. However, Lan Tian still had no clue about it, and his slightly furrowed brows furrowed even more deeply.

[Something's not right. Throughout the entire investigation, I didn't sense any fluctuations in power at all. Instead, it felt more like... um? Why was it so fast this time?]

Lan Tian's consciousness was forcibly interrupted once again, even faster than the first time.

[I'm starting to see some clues, but I may need to investigate further...]

Just as Lan Tian was meditating and continuing to use his divine sense to probe the object connected to the other end of the silk thread, a blue furry ball slowly walked to Lan Tian's side. Judging from its somewhat round appearance, it seemed to have eaten too much again.

That blue fluffy ball was naturally Gan Yu, but at this moment Gan Yu was looking up at the blue sky with a pair of purple-blue eyes, her eyes closed and her brows furrowed. She tilted her head in confusion.

"Hey?"

I tentatively called out softly to Lantian, but Lantian didn't respond at all, not even showing the slightest expression or movement.

"Hey?"

Little Ganyu tentatively called out again and gently touched Lantian's thigh with its paw, but Lantian still did not react at all, standing there like a stone statue without changing its expression.

Seeing that Lan Tian really didn't react, Xiao Gan Yu gently jumped into Lan Tian's arms, curled up into a ball, and started to doze off.

In fact, Lantian can sense everything happening in the outside world, but unfortunately, she is currently at a critical stage and cannot spare any attention to communicate with Xiaoganyu in the outside world.

[So that's how it is... No wonder my consciousness is frequently and irregularly interrupted. It turns out that this thread isn't always present; it alternates between being real and illusory. When it's in physical form, my consciousness can use it as a medium to explore, while the part that's in illusory form is like temporarily cutting off the thread, severing the medium my consciousness needs. This is why my consciousness is interrupted irregularly; it must be a protective mechanism...]

Thinking this through, Lan Tian realized that he had to act quickly. After a long period of exploration and probing, Lan Tian discovered that the other end of the thread was connected to a place beneath the surface of Teyvat. He only had one chance to directly probe the other party, which meant that Lan Tian had to quickly extend his divine sense while the entire thread was still solid.

I do not know how long it has been……

[Success! We can finally detect them!]

To outsiders, Lan Tian's previously furrowed brows suddenly broke into a beaming smile, but at that moment, Xiao Ganyu was not in Lan Tian's arms.

Let me see what kind of background this person has, that they have such a strong protective mechanism to protect themselves.

Because of the successful exploration, the entire thread began to solidify and was no longer as elusive as before, so Lan Tian was able to easily probe out his divine sense.

However, when Lan Tian used his divine sense to probe the other side, he froze on the spot, his face full of shock.

Because during the investigation by the Blue Sky, the other party was not some important figure, but rather—a ley line!

To be precise, it's the ley lines of the entire Teyvat continent!
