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

"Don't be sad about these things. With me here, you don't need to worry about holding anyone back."

Seeing that Kachina had wiped away her tears, Zhao Chuan gently comforted her.

"I'm fine, Mr. Zhao Chuan!"

After venting her frustrations, Kachina felt much better and looked at the tall and imposing Zhao Chuan, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"Ahem, Kazina, I'm only a few years older than you."

Zhao Chuan covered his mouth with his fist, somewhat embarrassed, and coughed lightly.

"Okay, I understand. I'll call you brother then."

Kachina nodded obediently.

"That's more like it. Here, let me give you something."

Zhao Chuan nodded in satisfaction and took out a purple pill from his storage ring, placing it in Kazina's hand.

"this is……"

Kazina looked at the pill in her hand, which was as big as her palm, with some confusion.

"Hmm, don't eat it. Keep it for now. It will be useful when the Abyss enters your body again."

Zhao Chuan took her hand and spoke softly.

"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Brother Zhao Chuan!"

Kazina carefully put away the pills in her hand, and then followed Zhao Chuan forward.

Due to the damage to the earth's veins, the Kingdom of Night God before us is in ruins, filled with terrifying monsters, and the battlefield after the fighting is filled with oppression and bloodshed.

Kachina followed Zhao Chuan deeper into the Kingdom of Night God. The concentration of the abyss had increased considerably, and even Zhao Chuan's powerful divine sense could not perceive the situation ahead.

"What should we do? The power of the abyss ahead has overflowed, and we can't step in."

Kazina, clutching her spear, cautiously surveyed her surroundings, her face turning deathly pale.

"Um……"

Zhao Chuan nodded slightly, his gaze fixed intently on the misty, yet mysterious area ahead, and slowly said:

"It seems that the last ley line most severely corrupted by the power of the abyss is hidden here. This place is fraught with danger and the situation is unclear. Let's leave first."

As he spoke, he carefully withdrew his outward-extended divine sense, took Kachina's small hand, and a golden light protected the two of them.

Zhao Chuan gripped the gleaming spear in his hand tightly, its tip flashing with a chilling light.

His body was taut like a bowstring, his mind focused on any unusual movements that might occur around him.

He took each step with extreme caution, constantly scanning his surroundings out of the corner of his eye.

"Stay close to me and don't fall behind. I'll take you to a safe place first, and then I'll come back alone to investigate."

After confirming that there was no immediate danger, Zhao Chuan turned around gently and whispered to the person beside him.

After saying that, he began to slowly and steadily retreat back the way he came, his steps light and silent.

In the blink of an eye, at this critical moment, the once solid ground began to tremble violently without warning! Zhao Chuan's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition instantly surged into his mind.

He looked down and saw that the ground beneath his feet had become soft and unstable, as if it could collapse at any moment.

"not good!"

Zhao Chuan cried out inwardly, not daring to hesitate for a moment. He reached out and grabbed Kachina tightly beside him. Before she could react, the spiritual power within Zhao Chuan surged rapidly like a raging torrent. While the golden light was present, a faint spiritual light emanated from his body.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Chuan flashed away, displaying an exquisite movement technique, and sped off like a ghost towards the direction away from the collapsed area.

As they fled at breakneck speed, the land behind them sank at an alarming rate, forming a huge crater.

Dust flew everywhere and sand and stones flew in all directions in the pit, a truly terrifying sight.

Looking at the scene before him, Zhao Chuan realized something: the abyss had awakened its own consciousness. This was its warning to him, a warning for trespassing into its territory.

Zhao Chuan didn't linger and pulled Kachina towards the outer perimeter.

Zhao Chuan used his aerial aura to carry Kazina towards the outer perimeter. Suddenly, the ground behind them collapsed, revealing an endless abyss. If they fell in, they would be swallowed up by the abyss in an instant.

In that instant, a shocking crack suddenly appeared in front of them without warning! The crack was like the gaping maw of a ferocious beast, exuding a chilling aura.

Immediately afterwards, from the crack, countless extremely sharp stone points shot out like arrows straight toward Zhao Chuan's location, as if they had already locked onto their target and were stabbing at them mercilessly.

These sharp stone points move at incredible speed, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound and a force that cuts through the air, making them impossible to avoid.

Zhao Chuan sidestepped a sharp boulder, spun around and tossed Kachina into the air. With his fingertips slightly closed, he used the momentum of the spin to unleash a golden beam of power that instantly pulverized the incredibly hard boulders!

Using the reaction force generated by the exploding rocks, Zhao Chuan stomped his feet hard on the rocks in the air, soaring into the sky.

His gaze was fixed on Kazina, who was slowly falling. He stretched out his arms and caught her light body steadily.

"Brother Zhao Chuan, what's wrong?"

Kazina, who had been running frantically all the way, looked at the current situation with a bewildered and incredulous expression.

"Let's go first, get out of this troublesome place."

Zhao Chuan's eyes were deep as he watched the signs of ground collapse spreading outwards. Without lingering, he pulled Kachina along and continued rushing towards the outer perimeter.

Only after the sound of the collapse faded into the distance did Zhao Chuan stop and begin to sit down and regulate his breathing.

Kachina stood obediently to the side, her eyes still filled with the fear she had just experienced. If Zhao Chuan hadn't reacted quickly, she would have fallen into that abyss.

Thinking about how he had risked his life to escape from the enemy's clutches with her, a burden he had been carrying, and how much elemental power he had expended in the process, she felt a little guilty. But now she could do something for him too. After thinking it through, she gripped her spear tightly, keeping a watchful eye on any unusual movements or attacks that might come from the abyss.

While there's no real need to be so vigilant, it's always good to be cautious. After all, although this road has already been thoroughly cleared of monsters during a fierce battle, no one can guarantee that new threats won't quietly emerge.

An unsettling atmosphere permeates the abyss, where countless unknown dangers may lurk in uncharted territories.

Even though everything seemed peaceful and calm around her, she remained vigilant and dared not let her guard down.

On the other side...

Murko, existing in the form of a soul, had a faint, ethereal figure that flickered in and out of sight.

He waved his missing arm, signaling Chaska, Ying, and the others to follow him, and together they slowly made their way towards Kazina's location.

The Kingdom of Night Gods is no longer the peaceful and tranquil place it once was.

The environment here has suffered from comprehensive and thorough pollution and erosion. The once indestructible and incredibly hard rocks have now undergone a chilling transformation.

They were gradually infected by a mysterious and unpredictable force, becoming as eerie and terrifying as bottomless black holes. These rocks, which should have been as solid as mountains, now appeared pitch black, as if they could mercilessly devour all the light around them.

“Look, isn’t that Kazina?”

Paimon pointed excitedly to Kazina, who was still on guard ahead.

"Yes, Zhao Chuan is there too."

Ying looked in Paimon's direction, a look of surprise appearing on her face.

"Kazina, we're here!"

Marani rushed over excitedly and hugged Kazina, who had just turned around at the familiar shout.

"Marani, it's you guys, that's wonderful!"

Kazina was stunned for a few seconds, then hugged Marani tightly, confiding in her friend with a reassuring tone, her eyes filled with clear tears—tears of comfort and gentle warmth from her friend.

"Ah, this is the power of friendship."

Paimon stood to the side, arms crossed, and sighed.

"You have the power of friendship on your side, and the power of love on this side."

Ian Shan patted Paimon on the shoulder, then gestured to Ying and Zhao Chuan beside her. Seeing them embracing, she teased them.

"Let me see if you're hurt!" Ying said with a worried expression, her beautiful eyes revealing deep concern. She quickly walked up to the other person, her hands trembling slightly as she reached out, as if afraid of touching any wounds.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Zhao Chuan hugged her again, comforting her heart. His gentleness and reassurance put Ying at ease.

“Marani, I want to go see the Great Spirit; it’s in danger right now.”

Kazina's slightly sobbing voice reached Marani's ears.

"Hmm, this won't do!"

Zhao Chuan left Ying's embrace and scolded her impatiently.

"Hmm, why!"

Everyone looked at Zhao Chuan with puzzlement and asked.

"Kazina, think about it carefully. Have you forgotten about the sinkhole that just happened?"

Zhao Chuan felt exhausted and didn't know how to persuade him.

"A ground collapse? Kachina, that was so dangerous just now, are you alright?"

Marani was particularly shocked to hear this, and then immediately began to check Katzina's voice.

"Mr. Zhao Chuan, could you please explain the situation?"

Chaska lowered his eyes slightly and said seriously.

"Yes, the Abyss has awakened its consciousness. The sinkhole just now was a warning. Since it can have consciousness, its strength will be even greater. If we go over there now, it will be like trying to break a rock with a soft one."

Zhao Chuan shook his head and began to speak seriously about what had just happened.

"what!"

Everyone looked surprised, but they calmed down after a while. Their Vulcan had predicted this, but the consequences were already very serious.

"Then let's leave first!"

Chasca nodded, understanding the pros and cons involved, and spoke decisively.

They nodded quickly and moved toward the coordinates connecting to the outside world.

Just then, a pitch-black barrier rose up and moved towards Zhao Chuan and the others. The areas enveloped by it were undoubtedly destroyed, as if by natural disaster or man-made calamity. The ground began to crack, and pieces of land loosened and collapsed. Everyone realized that something was wrong; it seemed that the Abyss did not want them to leave.

"Go quickly, I'll cover your retreat!"

Zhao Chuan looked back at the barrier that was still approaching and quickly spoke up, preparing to cast a spell. The ground beneath his feet began to crumble.

Upon hearing Zhao Chuan's voice, everyone instinctively turned around and looked at Zhao Chuan running in the opposite direction, their expressions incredulous. Was Ying's friend so fearless?

Ying's reaction was different; her eyes held a hint of determination. She met Zhao Chuan as soon as she arrived in Nata, and she was in a good mood at the time. Even when he said he had to deal with some dangerous matters, she didn't care because she believed he could protect her. But now she regretted it. Seeing him rushing forward recklessly, just to protect her and everyone else, she thought he was such a fool.

"Zhao Chuan, come back here right now!"

Ying shot out a vine that tightly wrapped around Zhao Chuan, who was about to fall, and gritted her teeth to pull him up.
