Transmigrating to the world of Genshin Impact and becoming a big shot.

Winter...

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress."

A young man dressed in a black cloak and thick cotton coat, with long, flowing white hair, bowed respectfully to the noble figure on the throne.

"Okay, it's good to be back. Did you complete the mission?"

The beautiful voice came, but it sounded rather harsh to the boy's ears.

"Successfully completed. The Heart of God of Fontaine has also been successfully recovered."

The boy answered the empress's questions mechanically, entrusting the canned knowledge in his hands to the empress with his spiritual power.

"Very good. You've worked hard lately. I grant you permission to go on vacation to Nata. I've heard the scenery there is beautiful. You can also take a look at the current situation in Nata."

The Empress said with great satisfaction.

"Yes! Then I will take my leave."

After the boy finished speaking, he left the palace.

On the other side...

"It seems that the source of the earth's veins is right here."

Zhao Chuan sensed the polluted ley lines and arrived at a high mountain. He pressed his palm against the ground, which was radiating intense elemental energy, and said with a surprised expression.

Because this ley line was not the source of the pollution, but only one of the sources. What surprised him even more was that the real source of the pollution was not so simple. According to the Teyvats, it was the power of the abyss, an external force that had eroded this land.

"It seems this is a bit tricky. Since the people here are not in their complete form, they all only have half of their remnant souls inside them."

Zhao Chuan stood up and looked at the village where people had settled, deep in thought.

"This world is getting weirder and weirder."

Zhao Chuan complained somewhat helplessly.

Then Zhao Chuan sat down cross-legged and chanted, and an invisible barrier, centered on Zhao Chuan, sealed off the entire mountaintop.

"Alright, there is a strange power here. If I absorb this power, I can feel that my affinity with the fire element will increase exponentially."

After Zhao Chuan finished speaking, he began his cultivation.

In a few days...

"No, this is our umpteenth time in the desert. We're exhausted and thirsty."

A complaint came from the road not far away, as if it were shouted out with all its might.

"Third time, Paimon... I have a sip of water here, do you want some?"

Ying sat slumped on the ground, wiping the sweat from her face as she spoke.

"Give it to me quickly!"

Paimon lay on Ying's lap, stretching out his little hands, looking as cute as a baby wanting milk.

"Okay, you drink it. I'll check the map; we should be there soon."

Ying took out a green bamboo water bottle from her backpack and handed it to Paimon, then opened a yellowed blueprint and began to look at it.

"How are things? Where are we?"

Paimon flew over to Ying's side with the water bottle in his arms and said with some curiosity.

"Yes, we've arrived in Nata. According to the map, it's just a few more steps ahead."

Ying put away the map, stood up, stretched her limbs, and said.

"Great! Can I have a big meal?"

Paimon was overjoyed upon hearing this and crossed his arms as he spoke.

"Indeed, we should treat ourselves after walking for so long. Let's go."

Ying nodded in agreement.

Son of Echoes...

"Hello, sir, may I ask where this is?"

Zhao Chuan, dressed in a loose short-sleeved shirt and casual pants, with his long hair falling naturally to his waist, asked a passerby.

"You look like an outsider. This is a tribe called the Sons of Echoes."

The man who had been stopped by Zhao Chuan turned around and looked at the strange man in front of him, and answered his question very enthusiastically.

"Okay, thank you!"

Zhao Chuan was taken aback by his enthusiasm, but still replied politely and left.

"After finishing my cultivation, I started wandering around and accidentally got lost. But this place looks very lively."

Zhao Chuan muttered to himself, looking around, captivated by the unusual items here.

At this moment, Zhao Chuan saw several people standing under a statue in the distance. The statue depicted a dashing, elegant, and charismatic woman sitting on a circular platform behind her, inspiring respect and deference.

"How could this be? I could clearly gain elemental power just by touching the statue before."

Paimon felt a little embarrassed and frustrated that Ying's little hand didn't react at all.

(There's nothing here...)

Ying frowned, staring at the statue in front of her, lost in thought.

"Based on past experience, you should be able to release a fireball or summon a pillar of fire by now, right?"

Paimon looked left and right, puzzled, and said...

"Hmm, there's absolutely no reaction, and I can't sense any elemental power."

Ying waved her hand helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"Well, that's really strange. Is this one of Nata's unique local customs?"

Paimon had no choice but to accept the reality.

"It's probably due to the influence of the earth's veins."

At this moment, Zhao Chuan came to their side. As he spoke, he walked towards Paimon, his voice carrying a hint of deep thought.

"Hmm, Zhao Chuan, what are you doing here?"

Paimon turned around and saw a tall figure in casual clothes walking towards her. She asked him with some curiosity.

"Hmm, is it strange that I'm here?"

Zhao Chuan asked back, somewhat puzzled.

"No, I was just a little surprised and asked casually."

Paimon answered, looking slightly embarrassed.

"Long time no see, Zhao Chuan, what brings you here too?"

Ying watched Paimon and him bickering and almost laughed, but to satisfy Paimon's curiosity, she asked anyway.

"Long time no see. Well, I'm here because Nata's ley lines have been affected, so I'm here to take care of it."

Zhao Chuan explained gently.

"Hmph, you change your tune so quickly!"

Paimon grumbled discontentedly, clearly annoyed by Zhao Chuan's sudden change of heart.

"Um, this is..."

Kazina, standing to the side, looked at the unfamiliar man before her, her heart filled with curiosity and doubt.

She tried to break the awkward atmosphere and asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot, this is Liyue's... mmm!"

When Paimon heard Kazina's questioning voice, he enthusiastically wanted to introduce the tall man's identity, but before he could finish speaking, Zhao Chuan covered his mouth with a grappling move.

"Hello, little sister, my name is Zhao Chuan, and I am a tourist here."

Zhao Chuan introduced himself to Kachina with a smile, his eyes gentle and friendly, as if carrying a reassuring power.

"Hello, I'm Katsina, Katsina from 'Usaboti'."

Kazina responded politely, her face beaming with a smile, demonstrating her friendly attitude towards Zhao Chuan.

"Zhao Chuan, why are you covering my mouth? That's very impolite."

Paimon broke free from Zhao Chuan's grasp and said angrily, her tone revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and complaint.

"It's so hot in Nata! Anyone want a Chongyun special edition popsicle?"

Without wasting any words, Zhao Chuan pulled out an ice pop from his backpack and began to bribe Paimon, knowing that Paimon loved this kind of sweet treat.

"Hmph, in that case, I won't hold it against you."

Paimon pouted and quickly snatched the popsicle from Zhao Chuan's hand with his little hand.

"Paimon!"

Ying stared at Paimon speechlessly.

"You two have a really fun time together."

Kazina said with a hint of envy.

"It's okay, they're like that."

Ying was used to it.

"Ying, did you feel anything unusual just now?"

Zhao Chuan slowly took her hand and said with some concern.

"I'm fine, I just can't sense the elemental energy here."

Ying also took his hand and replied.

"Well, I'm just curious, so I'm asking. You were able to use elemental power just by touching the Seven Gods statue? That's something only the holder of the Eye of God can do."

Kazina also said curiously, after all, she didn't know that there really was such a special case. In her understanding, only by being watched by the gods and gaining their approval could one obtain the Eye of God and use elemental power.

"It's possible, but I don't know the underlying principles."

Ying nodded and said.

"Can I take a look? If it's not too much to ask, is that alright?"

Kazina looked up at Ying, scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly, and said...

"OK!"

Ying looked at Zhao Chuan and said with a smile.

Zhao Chuan understood her gaze and stepped aside.

With a crisp snap of her fingers, she crossed her arms, smiled gently, and looked very confident.

Just then, a gentle breeze swept by, and Ying's hair fluttered in the wind, making her look exceptionally beautiful.

Ying took a few steps forward, her eyes suddenly becoming sharp. She raised one hand and placed it in front of her chest, a powerful purple electric current swirling around her palm, crackling loudly.

She turned around quickly, waved one hand upwards, and a purple lightning bolt pattern appeared directly above her head. The purple pattern summoned lightning bolts in all directions, which struck the ground. The lightning drew dazzling trajectories in the air, and the whole scene was very shocking.

When the lightning dissipated, Ying stood still again, a resolute look in her eyes. She waved her hand forward once more, and a huge water droplet appeared out of thin air, crystal clear, like crystal.

Then, she shattered the water droplets with a single palm strike, turning them into countless tiny droplets that danced in the air.

Finally, Ying raised one hand and clenched her fist. The surrounding air began to swirl violently, and a cyan wind element gradually condensed on her palm.

The wind element seemed to come alive, dancing with her gestures to form a rotating sphere of wind that swirled around her, emitting a whooshing sound.

The wind ball spun faster and faster, and the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart, producing a sharp wind sound.

Such power left Kazina completely stunned, only able to gasp in surprise.

Even Paimon gasped in surprise.

Zhao Chuan nodded in agreement, but didn't show it too much, since it was all commonplace.

Zhao Chuan looked at the power in his hand, then glanced at the Eye of God on his waist, and a feeling of disgust for the Eye of God arose within him.

However, without it, it would take a lot of effort to convert elemental power into spiritual power.

Thinking about it this way, Zhao Chuan reluctantly gave up the idea.
