In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

Amidst the surging crowd, Dixia and Rod, relying on their strength, quickly squeezed their way to a very good spot at the front.

The Zubair Theatre is not a traditional large theatre.

Actually.

This theater is more like the large rural stage that Rod lived in his previous life.

It's just a matter of setting up a big stage, and the audience members can find their own seats. They can bring a small stool and find a place to sit, or they can all squeeze together.

This is how it is now.

A simple "Nil is performing today" is the most reliable guarantee of a ticket.

Of course.

The fact that Nel is performing doesn't mean that Nel is the only performer today.

The Zubair Theater always opens with other performances, such as songs, dances, and acrobatics. The facilities are indeed a bit rudimentary, but the actors on stage all perform with great enthusiasm. Even before Nil, who is the final act, appears, the audience is already cheering.

When Nel appeared amidst the anticipation of the crowd, the applause, cheers, and screams reached another peak. If it weren't for the excellent soundproofing of the Grand Bazaar, such noise would surely have attracted the attention of the Faith Council.

Rhodes carefully examined the red-haired girl who had just appeared.

It's slightly different from what I remember.

Nilu now looks more youthful and is dressed in a revealing dancer outfit similar to that of street performers.

With her light steps, the area she passed through instantly transformed into a lake, with a light mist swirling around it, making her face and figure not so clear in the mist.

This technique didn't overshadow her light and lively dance steps; instead, it added a sense of mystery, making it even more irresistible.

As she twirled and danced, one water lily after another bloomed on the lake's surface. The smooth, ribbon-like water flowed along the path of her dance steps, and the water droplets suspended in the air shone with dazzling brilliance, all of which made her dance display the pure, natural beauty of nature.

"Elemental power can be used like this?"

Nilu's dance was indeed beautiful, captivating and mesmerizing, but Rod's attention was drawn to something else.

That is Nil's use of elemental power.

From Rhodes's perspective.

Nilu wasn't exactly a master; she probably knew some martial arts, but not much—only slightly better than she was back when she was wandering the desert.

But her use of elemental power is different.

Although Nellu specifically designed and diffused her elemental power in a simulated manner to complement her dance.

However, her ingenious method of using elemental power still gave Rhodes a lot of inspiration.

At the same time, he suddenly discovered a problem.

My own use of elemental power is so unimaginative. Compared to Nil's current application of elemental power, it's completely crude and embarrassing.

"We still need to read and learn more."

Rhodes muttered something to himself and then released his grip.

In his palm.

An ice lotus, strikingly similar to the water lily created by Nilu, stood in her palm. When she clasped her hands together and released them, the ice lotus transformed into a small Dark-Colored Bird. With a thought, it flapped its wings and flew away silently. Apart from its lifeless eyes and crystal-blue body, its movements were indistinguishable from those of a real Dark-Colored Bird.

Chapter 77 Remarks on the launch

It will be available for purchase tomorrow at 12:05 PM.

Before I knew it, a month had passed. This release was quite unexpected; I had thought it would get another round of recommendations.

Actually, this book performed much better than the previous book at the same time, so there is still a lot of hope.

But there is no way.

Qidian is currently putting a lot of pressure on fanfiction, and with so many original works being published at the same time, unless there are a very high number of readers following the work, they have to give way to original works (bitter smile).

Play the victim.

Please, dear readers, give me a first subscription tomorrow, so that I can survive after it's officially released and gets good recommendations. Thank you so much!

Okay, it's terrible now that they're sold out.

Old rules.

After it's listed, it will still be 10,000 yuan per day for a month, and I won't make any promises. Anyway, making any random promises is not as practical as just getting 10,000 yuan per day.

As for the chapter that will be available tomorrow.

Five chapters to start, and I might add more depending on the situation. (Crying, I haven't finished writing the ending of the undercover story yet, but don't worry, I will.)

Finally, let's talk about something I just had to get off my chest.

To be honest, the results are quite unexpected.

After all, Qidian's crackdown on fanfiction is extremely severe now, and Genshin Impact is a very niche fanfiction, so it's very difficult to achieve success. Some editors will even reject the manuscript just by looking at the title, and won't even give it a contract. I'm grateful that Boss Penglai is still willing to take me in.

Actually, when we were starting out with the book...

I once thought about making Furna the female lead, since Furna was very popular at the time, and I could ride that wave. But then I remembered that Fontaine wasn't finished yet, so I really didn't dare to touch it. Being betrayed like that would be worse than death.

After that idea was rejected, I even thought about writing a female protagonist story where she transmigrates into a female character in Teyvat, like Yura, and directly crushes all the Mondstadt people who criticize her.

After all, Qidian is heavily supporting female protagonist novels, and it provides resources in terms of recommendations and traffic, which can offset the difficulties that Genshin Impact fanfiction faces in terms of recommendation slots and traffic to some extent.

Later, I also rejected that idea.

There's no other special reason; I just don't know how to write, and I'm afraid that if I did, I'd disgust myself and the readers.

So after going around in circles, we came back to the original idea of ​​farming in the desert, which led to this book.

As I write this, some people criticize me, some praise me, some say it's toxic, and quite a few say it's entertaining.

In short.

After many ups and downs, they finally reached the point where life and death would be decided.

Please subscribe again!

correct.

I've seen quite a few people have questions about the cultivation path these past few days, so I'll take this opportunity to explain it.

In the world of Genshin Impact, frankly speaking, there isn't a specific cultivation system. Especially in the desert, where most people rely on combat instincts and experience, very few engage in systematic cultivation. Writing a specific cultivation progression would be really difficult, so they simply made it a bit vague, allowing the protagonist's strength to improve directly through leaps and bounds.

Some people have asked why the protagonist doesn't go to Candice to learn martial arts, but instead sticks to Dixia's unorthodox martial arts style.

In fact, the reason is very simple.

Because Candice is a guardian.

They are legitimate descendants of the Crimson King; how could they possibly teach their inherited martial arts to an outsider like the protagonist? Unless the protagonist is willing to marry into Candice's family, there's simply no way he could learn the Guardians' martial arts. (Of course, some might say that's not impossible!)

Furthermore, in the Teyvat worldview, the power of the gods is greater than everything else.

Including the top three executives of the Fools, whose strength is clearly comparable to that of gods, whether they use the Evil Eye or the God Eye, it is a manifestation of divine power. The limitations of human cultivation are too high, and the upper limit is basically locked.

That's why I designed the protagonist to go to the Order Academy to acquire knowledge, using the advancement of his development of the Eye of God as a way to increase his strength.

All right.

That's all for now.

See you tomorrow.

Finally, I'd like to ask for one more first-day subscription! Dear readers, please grant me a subscription! Thank you so much!

Chapter 78 A Little Incident About Giving Gifts

The audience below the stage was in high spirits, and Nilu danced with great enthusiasm. Not only did she not show any signs of fatigue, but her dance steps became even lighter and lighter. The already colorful water splash effects became even more dazzling.

However, Rhodes' attention was no longer on Nel.

Inspired by Nel, he has now come up with many new ways to use elemental forces that he has never tried before.

Talk about it.

Previously, Rhodes had been focusing on developing the power of the Eye of God itself.

simply put.

The goal is to lower the temperature of the ice elemental force in the Eye of the Ice God and raise the temperature of the fire elemental force in the Eye of the Fire God, striving to develop more extreme temperature control.

Take a pure, powerful brick-flying route.

When he killed the missionary, he relied on his strong foundation in elemental power to push the low temperature of ice elemental power to its limit, creating a powerful control effect and thus quickly killing the missionary's subordinates.

However, in his pursuit of higher limits, Rhodes seemed to have gotten himself into a dead end, focusing intently on how to further improve the operational limits of this elemental force.

In addition, there was no chance of encountering any decent opponents in Aru Village.

This comfortable life led him to neglect developing his skills in using elemental power, and he even gradually forgot about carving ice flowers, which was an essential part of his daily routine.

"Hey, watch out, there are a lot of people here."

Just as Rhodes was pondering how to improve the Dark Bird he had created with ice elemental power, Dixia nudged him in the ribs with her elbow.

"Ouch."

Only when he felt the pain did Rod notice that the way people around him were looking at him had changed.

Since it's Nilu's performance, there's a large audience gathered at the Zubair Theater.

The chilling aura emanating from the Dark Bird, which Rhode was recklessly manipulating with his ice elemental power, was severely affecting the viewing experience of those around him.

Just like someone constantly taking photos with the flash on during a movie, this kind of behavior will annoy other viewers.

"Sorry, sorry."

"This is a gift I'm preparing for Miss Nel. I'm sorry for bothering everyone."
