Chapter 1030 The Era of Acceleration
"Dad?"
Gu Sanqiu was surprised: "You can actually enter this place?"
"From a common sense perspective, you must despise your father to say something like this."
Zhongli landed on Gu Sanqiu's boat, helped his rebellious son up and patted his back, allowing him to smoothly spit out the mixed willpower that had been poured into his body.
"Yohoo, much more comfortable."
Gu Sanqiu let out a long sigh and then lay back down.
Just now I couldn't move, and now I'm too lazy to move. The two cannot be discussed in the same breath.
Zhongli sighed and said, "You are really brave. With such simple conditions, you can persist in the Sea of Wishes for such a long time."
"Of course I am that strong."
Gu Sanqiu said lazily: "Well, Dad, please give me some advice, so that I can understand how you old seniors act in there."
"Actually, my method is similar to yours, except that when I enter as Morax, the will of all people becomes the boat that carries me."
Zhongli said: "You used the Eye of Legend as a support to enter the Sea of Wishes, and you should know the way and entrance for me to enter."
Gu Sanqiu suddenly realized: "So, Dad, every time you invite the immortals to perform the ritual, it will come to Yiyan Palace. Is this the reason?"
"The location is correct, but the logic is wrong. The reason why they descend at Yiyan Palace every year is actually to let the people of Liyue have a common holy place in their hearts. This is good for cohesion."
Zhongli explained: "Over time, everyone got used to it, and there was no need to waste time and money to hold the ceremony in another place. The Sea of Wishes now has an entrance like this."
"You also know that every year Qixing holds a celebration and takes out the incense ashes from the cauldron and sells them as a 'lucky symbol'."
"All the profits we get are used to distribute subsidies and daily necessities to the people in need. In fact, the incense ashes are not ordinary things."
Zhongli said: "After being soaked in the sea of wish power, the incense ashes can be used as excellent fertilizer, or made into sachets to be worn on the body, which can also be very powerful in subduing demons."
Gu Sanqiu understood: "If someone wears a scented sachet, and an evil spirit dares to attack, it would be equivalent to declaring war on everyone in Liyue?"
"Yes, the power of will is a very strange law of the world. It does not matter what one's strength is, only what one's mind is."
Zhongli put his hands behind his back and said, "Liyue's Sea of Wishes is actually a very dangerous place. If you are not careful, you will be completely trapped in it."
"In other words, the Sea of Wishes is very dangerous no matter where it is. Even a demon god can lose his essence if he is not careful."
"The devil loves people, but if his people undergo some negative changes, it will not be a small matter for the devil."
Wait a minute, this sounds so much like Mond.
Gu Sanqiu was stunned: "Does this mean that my good uncle was actually tricked by the Lawrence family?"
"Well, Barbatos carried a new kind of willpower back then, transforming from a wisp of a thousand winds into the Demon God of Freedom. The changes involved were huge."
"But the problem is that the concept of 'freedom' is too broad and too easily distorted."
Zhongli said: "Original sin nourished the people of Mondstadt, and from them a tyrant named 'man' was born."
"The belief in freedom is covered in dust, and the empty throne is stained with the dark mud of desire and violence."
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "Since it is so dangerous, is the entrance to Yiyan Palace sealed?"
"No need. Apart from me, you might be the only one who can get in by taking advantage of the situation."
Zhongli raised his right hand and showed Gu Sanqiu the golden wish power condensed in his palm.
"The Sea of Wishes is formed by the wishes of all people, but beyond that, there is still their own reverence and faith in the identity of 'Morax'."
"And this is the best protective gear I can rely on to swim in the sea."
“Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it.”
"The power of will is like water, carrying my body across the ocean, protecting the people of Liyue. At the same time, I can safely comprehend the mystery of the power of will that is unique to the human world."
“And that drunkard poet is the negative example of a boat overturned by dirty water polluted by silt.”
Gu Sanqiu coughed dryly and decided to forget his father's last words.
Although this last turn of events was somewhat sudden, today was another day that a certain alcoholic gentleman called a negative example.
I don’t know if anyone from the angel’s gift was startled by Wendy’s sudden sneeze.
"You should have sensed the appearance of the stone statue."
Gu Sanqiu nodded: "The stone statue of Marcosius, but I feel that the timing of its appearance is a bit strange."
This large-scale movement of the earth veins not only did not cause any disaster, it seemed as if it was only intended to spit out the stone.
The most prominent feature is that there is much thunder but little rain.
It’s like an artist who claims to have painstakingly crafted a work for many years, but after raising high expectations, what is finally presented to you is just a dot and a line on a large white paper.
Then they will tell you that there are many deeper meanings in this, and they will force themselves to go in the direction of reading comprehension, making themselves sound so great.
This time the movement of the earth veins gave Gu Sanqiu this feeling.
"Yes, this stone statue appeared quite suddenly."
Zhongli said: "Logically speaking, this stone statue has a huge power of will, and it is a part of history that has disappeared."
Gu Sanqiu's heart trembled: "The part about being reincarnated?"
"Almost, but not that serious."
Zhongli said: "The appearance of the stone statue this time gives me a bad feeling, as if the times are accelerating, and some things that originally did not belong to this era are gradually appearing before the world."
"This is not a sign of ancient civilization reviving and prospering. This is a sign of impending disaster."
Zhongli put his hands behind his back and said, "That Kanria man wanted to go into the Layered Abyss. You didn't agree to it, but if this speculation is true, it's not impossible to let him go down."
"Too many traces of Guiliyuan have been erased. If there is any place that will become the second sign, the probability of it being the Layered Rock Abyss is the highest."
"If there is some unusual movement that allows Dainsleb to find an opportunity to enter the Layered Abyss, then you don't have to worry about him and let him go."
Zhongli sighed inwardly. If something really went wrong at the rock layer, there would definitely be more than just Dai Yin going down there.
Gu Sanqiu was a little puzzled: "Why? If there is any unusual movement, shouldn't we immediately seal off the entire rock layer, evacuate the people from Huishan Hall and the Fatui members below, and then have the Seven Stars and Eight Gates send a team to investigate? "
"And if things go as expected, the task of leading the team deeper will most likely fall on me."
Zhongli asked with a smile: "Are you so confident?"
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "Yeah, I'm so confident."
Don’t ask, the only thing you know is the intimidation from your sister.
"Of course, if you, Dad, had recommended yourself, I might not have to go down."
Just kidding, the Rock King is here in person, if my sister is still worried about any accidents, then it’s weird.
The huge and powerful rock crystals in the abyss represent that the Rock King’s gaze is always fixed here.
If there really was something unusual, Ningguang would wish Zhongli would lead the team to investigate.
This is no longer just a visual projection, this is the emperor leading the army in person!
Gu Sanqiu gradually understood: "Oh, so Dai Yin is just a pathfinder?"
"No, from a universal point of view, it should be a matter of each taking what he needs."
Zhongli said: "Although your family is already special enough, from a historical perspective, the Kanreya people are still better in this regard."
“No matter where they are in Teyvat, they are the kind of people who truly have no taboos.”
