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

Beside the road, by the clear river, a young man with long, flowing black and white hair was holding his breath, while unknown elemental forces emanated from him and gathered in front of his chest.

"Phew, that's good then."

Dispersing the surrounding elemental energy, the boy pulled out his hair tie, tied his hair up, patted the fallen leaves and dust off his shoulders, stretched, and said.

"Sigh, I've used up all my spirit stones and only reached the next stage, the peak of the middle grade of the second level of the Golden Dao Realm."

Gathering the power in his palm, he looked at it with satisfaction, and then the system popped up.

"Ding, main quest: Save the Grass God. Rewards: 30 wishes, 3,000 points, and your cultivation level will automatically increase to the peak of the Golden Path Realm."

The system's seemingly coincidental reminder made the young man, who possessed the system, realize something.

"Oh no, this is the day of recognizing treasures."

The boy looked at the sun in the sky, realized that the time was wrong, and hurriedly ran towards Sumeru City.

At this moment, Sumeru City was unusually quiet, but inside the Church Council, it was not as quiet as one might imagine. The result was that the Great Sage Azar had already surrounded Elhesen.

Faced with the encirclement of dozens of mercenaries, Ying proposed negotiations to the Great Sage Azar.

“Good. You’re not going to beat around the bush and are directly proposing negotiations. This shows that you are well aware of the current situation and have no intention of engaging in any reckless resistance. Alright, there are people coming and going here, so it’s not suitable to talk business. Please come to my office.”

Hazard looked at the audience with disdain and said arrogantly before leaving the scene to go to his office.

Threatened by the mercenary's spear, Ying and the others were unwilling to be taken away.

Upon entering the office, Paimon was shocked by the scene before him.

The office was enormous, its interior arranged in a circular pattern. Within each circle, a tall pillar was cast every meter, forming a circle. Rows of soldiers stood around the pillars, and the light shining through the blue glass ceiling transformed the entire room into a deep blue hue.

Azar walked to his desk. Below the steps stood Ying, Elhesen, and Paimon, with several mercenaries standing beside them.

"There are many guards inside and out; it seems we really can't escape..."

Paimon looked around, his face contorted with pain and despair, and said...

"Alright, traveler, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Today is 'Day of Recognizing the Treasury of Knowledge,' and I have a lot of work to do. I don't have much time for idle chatter before I imprison you all."

Hazard spoke with great authority, as if everything was under his control, his arrogant demeanor making people uncomfortable.

“Fools cannot be trusted; they have ulterior motives.”

Ying waved her hands and said with a serious expression.

"It seems you already know quite a bit about our work..."

Hazard's eyes gleamed as he turned back with pride and spoke.

"Since that's the case, why don't you come to praise our [great achievements], but instead raise these trivial concerns, attempting to sway me..."

He roared at Ying with a hint of threat in his voice.

"Trivial matters."

Paimon, hands on his hips, said angrily,

"Then tell me, what do the fools want from me?"

Hazard asked dismissively.

"The Heart of God!"

Ying told the truth.

"Ha... It's nothing, absolutely nothing. Profits... divine right... You're using these vulgar words to tarnish our great cause."

Creating gods…we are creating gods using human wisdom!”

Hazard scoffed, raising his hands to look at the glass in the air, describing his magnificent masterpiece with a somewhat ferocious arrogance.

"If 'omniscience and omnipotence' are unattainable for humanity, then create gods to reveal them! This is the pinnacle of human wisdom."

"We will eventually regain the guidance of the gods and no longer have to grope aimlessly in the darkness of consciousness and wisdom... Even the crisis of the World Tree will eventually be resolved. This should be the ultimate dream of the City of Knowledge, and all the costs will be worthwhile."

His tone softened, Hazard lowered his hands, and stared arrogantly at Ying.

"Heh... talking about the pinnacle of humanity... in the end, we still rely on the gods."

Ying retorted.

"You will never understand the joy of a god being born in your own hands; your wisdom is insufficient to comprehend this emotion."

Hazard's expression changed drastically, and he pointed at Ying in rebuttal.

"What about the Little Lucky Grass King? You're not without gods, are you?"

Ying, not to be outdone, pointed at Hazard, tears welling in her eyes.

"I'll just say one thing: gods are beings far superior to humans. Little Lucky Grass King... what can she possibly do? Comfort the people, control the sandstorms, and fabricate those absurd fairy tales? These are things the Order of the Church can easily do. Are we gods too?"

Hazard turned his back, his sarcastic words mocking the wisdom and weakness of the gods.

"We are all people who have been blessed by the Great Tree King. Even if I didn't see it with my own eyes, generations of scholars have witnessed 'true wisdom.'"

"Now that the Little Auspicious Grass King holds a divine position, it only brings confusion to scholars. Is that really true wisdom? In that case, it would be better to let him stay in the Pure Goodness Palace so that the academic environment can be more stable."

Hazard looked at everyone and explained the principles he understood.

On the other side...

"System, why didn't you say so sooner? I'm exhausted."

Zhao Chuan ran towards Sumeru City, panting and cursing the system.

"Host, you're really wronging this system. I did warn you, but you didn't listen."

The system followed Zhao Chuan and said aggrievedly.

When Zhao Chuan reached the gate of the Academy, the scene before him was quite ordinary: soldiers were on guard and scholars were discussing.

"It looks like there's still time. I'll sense Ying's location now. My mission is to take advantage of the moment after that Miss Nilu sends those soldiers away, and then I'll go in and meet up with Ying. I'll use the Void Upper Space that Elhesen modified for Ying and the remaining grass elemental power on my body to connect with the consciousness space of Little Lucky Grass King."

After Zhao Chuan finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and gathered his spiritual power to explore the entire Sumeru City.

Meanwhile, inside the Order of the Fathers…

"You say I betrayed the Council of the Church... but you, Azar, you betrayed the entire Sumeru, you betrayed the gods!"

Al-Hazard pointed angrily at him.

"Hmph... Giving up the struggle, baring your fangs now, huh? Alright, guards..."

Hazard adjusted his half-rimmed glasses and said smugly.

Al-Hysen clenched his fists, his lips trembling.

At his command, the guards surrounded Yinghe Elhesen.

As the soldier gripped his spear and slowly approached, Elhesen trembled violently, staring at his hands, his vision blurring, before a furious shout rang out.

“Hazard…”

A crimson light flashed in Elhesen's eyes.

With his teeth clenched, he shouted as he watched his consciousness gradually fade.

Al-Hysen realized that his consciousness was being gradually eroded. Despite the headache, he walked forward step by step. The pain struck again, and unable to bear it, he clutched his head. Then, a strangely shaped, crimson jar fell out.

As Elhesen's brain throbbed with pain and he roared, his eyes were completely filled with crimson light, but Hazard, standing on the high hall, was concerned about the jar that had fallen to the ground.

"The lost knowledge of divine canisters has ultimately fallen into your hands,"

Hazard looked at him with a mocking expression and said.

"Betrayal...you...betrayal"

Al-Hysen raised his hand and pointed at Hazard, roaring in a hoarse voice.

"Even the most rational scholar, in despair, will yearn to rely on the divine. Aren't I doing the same thing? Elhesen, but unfortunately, the divine won't save you."

Hazard scoffed mockingly.

"A-Zar-r".

With a roar, Elhesen smashed through the soldiers who had surrounded them, strode forward, and threw a punch at Hazard, his crimson eyes flashing with bloodlust.

In that instant, Hazard dodged the attack by sidestepping, and Elhesen crashed into a table piled high with cans of knowledge. By the time he managed to get up, he was already pinned down by soldiers and unable to move.

Hazard dusted himself off and let out a soft sigh.

"He has completely gone mad."

He adjusted his glasses and said.

Then a soldier came up behind him and struck Alhesen on the back of the head with a spear.

And just like that, Elhesen fainted and collapsed in front of Ying.

Seeing that things were not going well, Ying was about to rush forward when she was stopped by the soldiers.

"Hand him over to the disciplinary officer and exile him to Aru Village. Also, send someone to take this traveler to the detention room and deal with him later."

Hazard returned to the work area and sorted out the jumbled knowledge about canning.

“Great Sage, preparations for the Food Storage Day are complete, and we can now input the knowledge of bottling.”

At that moment, a scholar in a blue academic robe walked in, approached Hazard, placed his hands on his chest, and bowed.

"Okay, let's get started."

After saying that, he left the office.

"Alright, the real show is just beginning."

Zhao Chuan withdrew his spiritual power to investigate. After a long period of observation, he had already located Ying's position and seen everything. A mocking smile appeared on his lips as he sneered.

On the other side...
