Genshin Impact: One Hundred Confessions? Just a System Task

She kept this doubt in her heart, silently noted it down, and her figure gradually disappeared into the depths of the clouds.

After seeing Shen He off, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun finally focused her attention entirely on Yi Chen. She handed the booklet she had been hiding in her wings to Yi Chen.

"Here, this is the most basic 'Guiding and Breathing Method,' which is the foundation for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and tempering one's body. Study it carefully."

As she spoke, she carefully observed the natural flow of energy around Yi Chen and made a judgment based on her extensive knowledge.

"Based on my observation, you should possess the Wind Attribute Divine Eye, right?"

Yi Chen accepted the cultivation manual and nodded obediently.

"Master, you are wise; it is indeed so." He

He scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and added...

"But now, apart from using it as a fan to cool off when it's hot, it doesn't seem to have any other use."

As he spoke, he subconsciously activated the Eye of God, and a wisp of breeze swirled around his fingertips. Sure enough... it could only be used to fan the air.

Liuyun Borrowing Wind True Lord: "..."

Without hesitation, and with a hint of disappointment, the crane's wing gently tapped Yichen's forehead.

"Nonsense! What a waste of resources!"

"The Eye of God is an external magical organ, a token for communicating with the elements of heaven and earth! Countless mortals yearn for it but cannot obtain it, and you only use it as a fan?! It's simply... simply infuriating to this immortal!"

Looking at Yichen's bewildered expression, as if asking, "Is there any other use for this?", she felt utterly powerless.

Chapter 39 Gale – Hear my command!

"That's all,"

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun sighed and decided to temporarily abandon the basic breathing technique.

"Let's set aside the breathing exercises for now. The most important thing is to make you, my unruly disciple, understand the correct way to use the Eye of God, so that you won't go out in the future and say that I, Liu Yun's disciple, used the power of the wind to fan yourself and cool off, thus unjustly disgracing your master's reputation!"

As she spoke, she led Yichen to a spacious and flat open area outside the cave, resembling a martial arts training ground.

"Alright, now, calm your mind and try to fully mobilize the elemental power within your Divine Eye and gather it here."

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun gestured for Yi Chen to stop, his tone becoming more serious.

"Let me see just how strong your foundation really is."

Yi Chen nodded, took a deep breath, and his expression became serious.

To be honest, since obtaining this Eye of God, he has never really used it at full power. He might as well take this opportunity to test its strength.

He closed his eyes, his mind sinking into the divine eye that radiated a blue light.

At first, only a gentle breeze began to rise, stirring the feathers of the Cloud-Borrowing True Lord and the stray hairs on Yi Chen's forehead.

Liu Yun nodded to himself. Hmm, his elemental perception is decent; a good start.

But as Yi Chen continued to push the situation forward, things began to change.

In just a few breaths, the once clear sky overhead began to gather thick, dark clouds at a visible speed, pressing down heavily.

The surrounding air began to move violently, making a whooshing sound, and the dust and fallen leaves on the training ground were all swept up, forming small whirlwinds!

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun nodded slightly, his wings remaining perfectly still in the gale as he assessed the situation.

Hmm, quite a show of force, the mobilization of elemental power is quite impressive. Although unexpected, it is still within expectations. As expected of a celestial beast bloodline.

However, Yi Chen's transfers did not stop.

He felt like... he hadn't reached his limit yet?

So he continued to focus his mind.

For some reason, an indescribable sense of familiarity and control, seemingly emanating from the depths of my blood, welled up within me, and a line of melodramatic, almost childish dialogue, perfectly matching my current state of mind, almost blurted out:

"Gale—hear my command!!!"

The moment Yi Chen finished speaking—

"boom--!!!"

An unimaginably immense pressure suddenly spread out from Yi Chen!

It wasn't just a simple increase in wind strength; it was as if the wind element in the entire world had been completely awakened, surrendered, and converged wildly at this moment!

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun felt an overwhelming force rushing towards her, causing her to subconsciously take a half step back!

His immortal power circulated rapidly on its own, forming a protective aura, which barely allowed him to stabilize himself in the sudden elemental storm.

This…what is this?!

This is no longer within the scope of "mobilizing elemental power"!

This level of elemental power concentration and control range... is almost like a demon god walking in the mortal world making its initial display of power!

Could it be... because of the ancestral Qilin bloodline within him?

The wind follows the tiger, the clouds follow the dragon, and the qilin is the ancestor of all beasts; it is not impossible that it can command the elements of heaven and earth...

In her perception, at this moment, the wind elements within a hundred kilometers of Mount Aozang were as if they had received a supreme decree, and all of them were under the control of the black-haired youth in the arena!

Yi Chen felt that he could exert more effort and probably mobilize about 30% more energy.

Just then, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun suppressed the shock in his heart and hurriedly spoke, his voice unconsciously rising a few decibels.

"Alright! That's enough! No need to move them anymore!"

If he continues to "demonstrate" without any restraint, she's afraid her Mount Aozang will be ruined!

Yi Chen readily complied, his mind relaxed, and he stopped gathering elemental power.

Almost the instant he withdrew his power, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be dispersed by an invisible hand.

The howling wind subsided instantly, and the dust and fallen leaves that had been swirled up drifted down, restoring clarity and tranquility to the world, as if the scene that had just resembled a natural disaster was merely an illusion.

Only the slightly rapid breathing of True Lord Liuyun and the lingering shock in his eyes proved that what had just happened was not an illusion.

She looked at Yichen, whose face was full of praise, as if asking, "Master, how did I do? Wasn't I great?" and remained silent for a long time.

Finally, she took a long, deep breath and said in an extremely complicated tone:

"...It seems that my previous assessment of your 'foundation'...needs to be redefined."

"Today's lessons are canceled. You... go play by yourself for a while, let your teacher... have some peace and quiet, and prepare the lesson again."

Upon receiving this unexpected "vacation" permission from True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, Yichen was first stunned, then his eyes lit up as if he had heard some great news.

"Huh—? You're giving me a break on the very first day of formal training? Master, you're being way too lenient! At this rate, when will I ever be able to cultivate to the Great Dao and bring glory to our sect?"

He stood with his hands on his hips, shaking his head, looking like a little adult saying, "Master, you can't do this, you have to stand up straight." He was completely unaware that his "commanding the wind" actions had almost made his knowledgeable crane master lose his composure.

Liuyun Borrowing Wind True Lord: "..."

Looking at Yi Chen's oblivious and even "lecturing" attitude, she felt the veins on her forehead throbbing.

She suppressed the urge to whack that blockhead with her wings again, and forced out a sentence through gritted teeth:

"Stop talking nonsense! Just go have fun! Getting familiar with the environment of Mount Aozang is also part of your training! If you keep nagging, I'll have you sweep the entire back of the mountain with a broom!"

Upon hearing this, Yi Chen immediately ran away.

"Oh, oh, oh! Getting familiar with the environment! That's something I'm good at!"

"Then I'll go take a look around! Master, you can take your time 'preparing your lessons'!"

After saying that, he ran off happily like a little animal released from its cage, his figure quickly disappearing among the swirling clouds and strange rocks and pine trees, curiously exploring his "new home".

Only the crane, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, remained, standing alone, bewildered in the wind.

She raised her wings, pressed her beak weakly, and let out a long, deep sigh.

That's really "challenging".

How am I supposed to prepare for this lesson?!

Meanwhile, in Liyue Harbor, inside the Hall of Rebirth.

Zhongli sat calmly beside the tea table, watching as the hall master, Hu Tao, tapped and hammered around the coffin that had been "tailor-made" for Yichen.

Suddenly, his hand holding the cup paused slightly as he looked out the window at the distant horizon.

In the air, an extremely subtle yet unmistakable law rippled outwards.

It was not an ordinary surge of elemental power, but rather an aura closer to the origin, closer to... authority.

Zhongli uttered a very soft question.

He sensed that in a distant direction, a vast and pure element of wind was being forcibly gathered and commanded. Its scale and control were far beyond the reach of ordinary holders of the Eye of God; rather, it resembled…

What era is this?

Where did this newborn demon god come from, manifesting its power at this moment?

However, as Zhongli carefully discerned the specific location from which the fluctuation came and the faint, familiar aura contained within it, his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

"So it's young friend Yichen..."

Zhongli withdrew his gaze, picked up his teacup again, and took a small sip.

He could almost imagine how flustered and doubtful the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng must have been when facing this "rough jade".

Now that they've gone to the immortal's cave, that's Liu Yun's responsibility.

How to teach such an unconventional disciple is enough to give her a headache for a while.

As for the concerns about the newly born demon god?

Since it's Yichen, then it's alright.

Chapter 40 No evil cultivators or anything like that!

Yichen wandered aimlessly around Mount Aozang.

The fairy cave is naturally a place of exceptional beauty, with rolling seas of clouds, strangely shaped pines and rocks, and a misty atmosphere filled with spiritual energy that makes you feel refreshed with every breath.

But after wandering around for a while, Yi Chen's restless nature couldn't be contained.

Hmm... the scenery is nice, but after looking at it for a while, it seems to get the same?

He scratched his head. It didn't feel as welcoming as the Cider Lake in Mondstadt, nor did it have the lively, bustling atmosphere of Liyue Harbor.

The secluded places for immortals to cultivate themselves seemed a bit too "quiet" for him.

He continued walking and unknowingly came to a relatively secluded woodland.

A huge ancient pine tree stood like a canopy, and beneath it, a figure sat quietly cross-legged—it was Shen He.

Yi Chen stopped in his tracks, not immediately going forward to disturb them.

He tilted his head, looking at his senior sister's almost perfect profile and serene expression as she meditated, and found it quite pleasing to the eye.

However, as he looked at it, Yi Chen frowned slightly.

An extremely subtle aura, which instinctively made him feel somewhat uncomfortable, was lingering around Shen He.

The aura didn't originate from her, but rather seemed to be... something foreign, cold, and filthy swirling around her, incompatible with her cool and aloof demeanor, carrying an ominous and restless feeling.

"Evil spirits...? Or some kind of curse or something?"

Yi Chen narrowed his eyes and muttered something under his breath.

Almost subconsciously, he felt his blood warm up slightly, and a primal desire to cleanse himself of “filth”, originating from the depths of his ancient bloodline, was stirred.

My fingertips even felt a little itchy, and I had an urge to bleed a little to see if it would have any effect.

But he quickly dismissed this somewhat reckless idea.

My senior sister is still cultivating. It wouldn't be good to disturb her abruptly. What if I frighten her or interfere with her?

So Yichen decided to hold back for now, but quietly took a few more steps closer to get a better look, while patiently waiting for Shenhe to wake up from his meditation.

As Yi Chen approached, the natural suppressive force against evil and filth, originating from the Qilin bloodline, spread out invisibly.

Shen He, who was meditating, was using his inner energy and the power of the red rope to suppress and fight against the ever-present, restless evil energy within his body.

This process is not easy; it's like walking on ice, requiring constant concentration, as the slightest mistake could backfire.
