The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

If this continues, his one-handed sword can hold out, but he himself will not be able to.

So Xingqiu decisively chose Kairun! Although he couldn't stop the bullets, he could at least run away!

With the Relic Hunter's aim, the hit rate against Xingqiu, who was darting around on the ground, was simply appalling.

Even if a few stray bullets were lucky enough to hit Xingqiu, he could block them.

The high-density barrage of firepower is not an easy task for the Relic Hunter's firing units.

After turning the ground into a honeycomb, the launch unit finally stopped due to overheating.

Xingqiu below was only slightly disheveled; the seemingly fierce hail of bullets actually caused him very limited damage.

Of course, Xingqiu did not cause any damage to the Ruins Hunter. The only minor injury was caused by the Ruins Hunter overheating.

"This is troublesome." Xingqiu panted as he thought about how to defeat the Ruins Hunters.

Familiar moves have limited effectiveness; does he really have to create his own moves on the spot?

Although Xingqiu admitted that he had a good talent and skill in martial arts, it was still too difficult for him to comprehend new moves in battle.

"Clang!"

Just as Xingqiu was deep in thought, a crisp sound rang out. Looking down, Xingqiu saw the "firecracker" that had rolled to his feet.

"..."

"I knew senior wouldn't just stand by and watch!" After a brief silence, Xingqiu picked up the missiles on the ground and pasted all the glowing talismans that Chongyun had given him onto them.

The talisman contains pure Yang energy, which is undoubtedly the most effective way to strike at the evil spirits within the Ruins Hunter.

He had been wondering why he hadn't seen the embers for so long, but now it seemed they were probably just hand-made missiles.

He skillfully positioned the missile and lit the fuse. A familiar plume of smoke lit up the sky as it precisely struck the core of the Relic Hunter.

"boom!"

The light from this explosion was much more intense than before, which suggests that the talisman affixed to it had taken effect.

The yang energy raged within the engine, and wherever it went, all evils retreated.

An engine devoid of resentment is nothing but a useless piece of scrap metal, and the power that allows the Ruins Hunter to fly also dissipates.

The steel behemoth that had been flying through the air finally landed on the ground.

"boom!"

With dust flying everywhere, Xingqiu didn't have the time to pay attention to the state of the Ruins Hunter; his immediate priority was to find Chongyun.

In the blink of an eye, Xingqiu found Chongyun. Why so fast? It must be because of their unwavering friendship, definitely not because of the dazzling light emanating from Chongyun.

"We've landed! Chongyun, it's up to you now!"

Braving the intense light, Xingqiu approached Chongyun. He blinked his tearful eyes. Was it just his imagination? Why did the light around Chongyun seem even brighter?

"We've landed! That's good! Xingqiu, just you wait and see! Watch how I slay demons and monsters!"

Chongyun immediately stood up from the ground and roared in a passionate tone. At the same time, he threw away the trash he was holding.

"You ate Jueyun chili peppers?!" Xingqiu exclaimed in shock upon seeing the chili pepper stems that Chongyun had discarded.

"Don't worry about the details!" Amidst the yellow and white light, a splash of red appeared—it was Chongyun's face, flushed with passion.

"Ha—" As Chongyun exhaled hot air, the light around him grew even stronger.

The quietly glowing talismans began to move on their own without any wind, and eventually, they even started to burn.

The light surrounding Chongyun began to oscillate between "dazzling" and "very dazzling," like a pulsating fireball.

"Chong...Chongyun, what do you want to do?" Xingqiu felt the heat emanating from Chongyun's body and involuntarily took a few steps back.

Chongyun did not answer Xingqiu. Instead, he raised his hands and shouted, "Demon, taste my exorcism bomb!"

Having said that, he yelled and charged toward the fallen Ruins Hunter.

Chapter 372-Light

2023-12-26

Light, light that is everywhere.

Xingqiu covered his eyes. He only saw Chongyun, with a light that seemed to dance like a flame, heading straight for the Ruins Hunter on the ground in the distance.

Then, a dazzling, enormous light burst forth from the dim underground.

The light illuminated the entire cave, and as far as the eye could see, there was endless white light.

Even though Xingqiu covered his eyes with his hands, the light still shone through his palms and eyelids, turning into a striking red that went straight into his eyes.

Xingqiu's entire field of vision was now a sea of ​​crimson. Not only that, but he could also clearly feel a continuous stream of heat sweeping over him in the direction facing Chongyun.

Although not as intensely hot as real flames, it was still hot enough to make the surroundings scorching.

Xingqiu covered his eyes and took a few steps back. He was filled with doubt; were magical arts really that powerful?

And looking at Chongyun's appearance, it's like she's turned herself into a bomb.

The vast underground cavern became utterly silent, with only a faint buzzing sound echoing in Xingqiu's ears, making him wonder if it was just his imagination.

Soon, the glaring crimson gradually faded, and the rising heat lost its strength. Xingqiu lowered his hand and opened his eyes.

The underground area darkened again, but fortunately, the light that had just burst forth did not seem to have caused too much damage to ordinary objects.

The eerie blue glow of fireflies, like candles flickering in the wind, still lingered around, while the mysteriously present red lanterns continued to illuminate the surroundings in a crimson glow.

Xingqiu spotted Chongyun, who was engulfed in flames and staggering, at a glance. Without hesitation, he ran over to him.

"You really used yourself as a bomb?!" Xingqiu exclaimed in utter shock as he saw the scorched ground around Chongyun and the now-silent Ruins Hunter beside him.

The Ruins Hunter was now lifeless, like any other rubble, and the eerie aura that had been lurking before had vanished.

"Haha... See that... My pure yang body is still quite powerful!" Chongyun looked even more miserable at this moment.

A small yellow flame burned on his head, and his Taoist robe was tattered and torn. The only thing that was relatively intact about him was probably the still clear Divine Eye at his waist.

"Okay, okay! You're amazing!" Xingqiu helped Chongyun lean against a flipped-up stone slab and nodded hurriedly in response.

Seeing the flames leaping above Chongyun's head, Xingqiu flicked his finger, and a water arrow shot out, drenching the flames.

The flame disappeared immediately, but it quickly sprang up again, leaping about as if mocking Xingqiu.

"There's something wrong with your flame, why can't you put it out?" Fortunately, Xingqiu stopped trying to be clever.

Seeing that the flame was so small, he raised his palm and slapped it repeatedly.

"Bang bang bang!"

Sure enough, the flames were extinguished, and Chongyun also got a new hairstyle.

"Stop filming! This is my yang energy leaking out, not some flame!" Chongyun pushed Xingqiu away and said speechlessly.

The flames that just leaped above Chongyun's head were the yang energy leaking out from Chongyun.

Chongyun had first eaten a handful of Jueyun peppers, and then completely expelled the evil spirits in front of him. You can imagine how excited he was.

Externally, this manifests as the leakage of Yang energy, forming Yang fire.

"A pure Yang body? Such abundant Yang energy?" Yu Jin rolled over from behind the stone slab, looked Chong Yun over, and exclaimed in amazement.

He had been spying from the sidelines the whole time. Putting everything else aside, the tacit understanding and trust between Xingqiu and Chongyun alone was enough to earn his praise.

As for Chongyun's "exorcising bomb" later on, it refreshed Yu Jin's understanding of the Pure Yang Body.

There are actually people with such good physical constitutions that they can directly release their Yang energy from their bodies!

"Of course, senior, you may not know this. A pure Yang physique is a physique that is only seen once in a thousand years!" Xingqiu wiped the dust off his face and said, shaking his head.

"It's not that powerful anymore. This constitution is usually quite troublesome." Chongyun scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly.

To some extent, Chongyun was right. Those who possess a pure Yang body have Yang energy circulating throughout their body.

To be more specific, it means that one is prone to getting carried away and having a surge of hot blood, which can cause one's yang energy to run rampant and drastically change one's temperament.

Chongyun himself suffered greatly from it.

Therefore, when Chongyun was outdoors, he avoided the scorching sun, hot water, hot food, spicy food, thick clothing, arguments, and anger...

It's safe to say that the points Chongyun should pay attention to in his daily life could fill three pages.

However, these costs were worthwhile. Chongyun glanced at the lifeless Ruins Hunter, whose chilling aura had long since vanished. Seeing that his pure yang body truly possessed such power against demons, Chongyun felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

All the tediousness of daily life vanished at this moment.

"Pure Yang Body, huh? It's really quite effective against these strange things." Yu Jin nudged the Ruins Hunter, also curious about where it had come from.

Before he tore the door apart, this place was a completely enclosed space.

The fact that the Relic Hunter was able to get in suggests that there was a problem with Kanria's spatial technology, and that it was accidentally thrown here when the Relic Hunter was deployed.

“That’s for sure. For demons and evil spirits, a pure yang body is the most deadly thing.” Xingqiu also ran over.

Regardless, he deserves credit for eliminating the Ruins Hunter, and he should take a look at the formidable foe he defeated.

"Is that so? A pure Yang body is a rare find, perhaps only once every thousand years. But the resentment here has been accumulating for more than a thousand years."

As Yu Jin spoke, he kicked the enormous Ruins Hunter on the ground away, and under the astonished gazes of Xing Qiu and Chong Yun, he pointed to the ground in the distance.

The dark blue-black mist that Xingqiu and Chongyun were extremely familiar with spread from the ground, causing the surrounding light to shrink completely.

The mist then gathered, eventually forming a guardian of the ruins.

"Not only is the Pure Yang Body amazing, but this 'evil spirit' thing is also quite amazing," Yu Jin said, shaking his head with a sigh.

No matter where you are, the soul, or rather the will, is a real and existing force.

Most of Rodland's magic involves the use of soul power. The borderlands are similar; whether it's magic or prayer, it all consumes the caster's willpower.

But things were different in Teyvat. The people there didn't seem to have such a deep understanding of the soul.

The power of will on this land is mostly manifested through forms similar to natural phenomena.

Whether it's the various monsters that spring out from the ley lines when they accumulate, the fallen stars of destiny, or the resentment that has accumulated for thousands of years, they are all like this.

Moreover, the manifestation of power is not through various forms of magic, prayer, or incantations, but rather through the formation of a real physical entity.

It has to be said, it is truly amazing.
