The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"What should I carve?" Yu Jin muttered to himself. He thought for a moment; everyone had contributed to this, and including him, there were exactly five.

Thus, a neat and proper "five" appeared on the "Heart of God".

Ta-da! Mission accomplished!

Yu Jin exaggeratedly added a voiceover to his "masterpiece," as if he had accomplished something extraordinary.

And indeed, that was the case; creating the Heart of God was something Shadow would never have imagined.

No matter how earth-shattering this matter was, it still couldn't suppress Ying's inner desire to complain.

Looking at the "round disc" in Yu Jin's hand, she cried out in despair, "Why is this Heart of God a chess piece?!"

Chapter 573 Soul Five Glory Certificate

2024-03-28

"Isn't chess a game of chess?" Yu Jin put down the "Heart of the Five Souls" he had been holding high and retorted confidently.

He knew that using Liyue's chess pieces was a bit out of place, but he couldn't resist the fact that Liyue's chess pieces were like big pancakes, making it easy to carve words on them!

If it were to resemble the image of his own God's Heart, Ember would have no idea how to decorate it.

This was something Yu Jin absolutely did not want; why should something he created have to be the same as others'?

"Look how beautiful the words on it are! Whoever takes this will be personally certified as a Soul Level 5 by me!"

Ember held up the Heart of God with the number "five" facing up, and said to Shadow with obvious pride.

Upon seeing the round cake in Yu Jin's hand, the first thing that catches the eye is the extremely eye-catching number "five".

Ying glanced at it and then closed her eyes. She absolutely refused to admit that what Yu Jin held was a chess set!

She'd seen chess pieces from Liyue before, so how could there be a chess piece the size of a palm? Not to mention the ridiculously large characters on this thing's surface, practically filling the entire surface.

Even with her eyes closed, Ying still felt a strange sense of mockery welling up inside her.

This made her want to hit someone.

Looking up and around, he couldn't see anyone except for Ember and Shadow himself.

Ying then fell into deep thought. She lowered her head and examined the number "five" on the ember round cake again, and a very outrageous guess came to her mind.

Could this taunt be coming from the words in Yu Jin's hand?

The more Ying looked, the more convinced she became, mainly because ever since she saw the number "five," her desire to hit someone had intensified.

What Yu Jin conjured up in his hand wasn't a chess set at all; it was clearly a sullen face that deserved a beating!

"Boom!" Ying closed her eyes and casually waved her hand. Dazzling lightning flashed from her sleeve, tearing a hideous gash in the ground beside her.

"Wow, it seems you've already experienced what it means to kick someone!" Upon seeing Ying's actions, Yu Jin immediately put away the "Soul 5 Honor Certificate" in his hand.

"What did you say?"

Ying opened her eyes, and this time the urge to punch someone had completely disappeared.

"It's nothing. What do you think of the God's Heart I created?" Ember chuckled. The fewer people who know about Soul Five, the better.

After all, this is a curse!

"It's ugly. If you hadn't told me, I would have thought it was a weight that flew in from somewhere." Shadow said bluntly, not caring at all about Ember's dejected look.

"But there are words on it."

"That's a weight with inscriptions on it."

Have you ever seen a red weight?

"Now I see it, the dyed weight."

An invisible arrow pierced Yu Jin's body, causing his aura to weaken considerably.

"Don't sleep too soundly at night, or snacks might fly in." After saying this casually, Yu Jin perked up again.

Regardless of the appearance of one's divine heart, as long as it works, it's a good product!

Ember believed that the God's Heart he had created was no less powerful than any of the Seven Gods', and the power it contained would definitely give the Fools a big surprise.

"Why did you sculpt... to create a God's Heart?" Seeing the lingering gaze of the embers, Shadow decisively replaced the word "weight" that was about to slip out with "God's Heart."

She frowned and cautiously reminded him, "The Heart of God is of great importance; be careful that it doesn't get out."

Shadow tilted his head slightly towards Ember, indicating that Sky Island might notice his actions.

"What do you know? This isn't the real Heart of God, it's just a pirated copy, it doesn't operate according to the laws of this world."

"If those guys on Sky Island find out about this, I'll seriously start to suspect they're faking their injuries to slack off."

Ember waved his hand dismissively. His Heart of God was actually a fake, filled with all sorts of strange things.

It's fair to say that the "Heart of God" in Ember's hands, both in appearance and in its essence, is not exactly the same as the real Heart of God, but it's completely unrelated.

"I made this thing mainly because the Fools want the Heart of God. Considering how cooperative they are with my work, I'll just make one casually and send them back to report."

Ember tossed the weight in his hand around, causing Shadow's lips to twitch for a while.

"The Fools want the Heart of God..." Shadow rubbed his temples, filtering out the useless information from the embers, and finally extracted the key point.

"The Queen of Winter is a bit hard to understand."

"I don't understand it, how could you possibly understand it?" Yu Jin couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ying Ming deep in thought.

In Yu Jin's eyes, Ying was just like the young master—exceptionally strong in limbs but extremely simple-minded.

Of course, embers can also be included.

"I don't understand it myself, but I should be able to figure out the ins and outs. Should I ask for you?"

Shadow crossed her arms and stared blankly at Ember, who was throwing the discus in front of her. Although she wasn't very bright, that was in the past. Now that she was really back, Shadow felt that her brain could finally take a break.

"No need to trouble yourself. Actually, I'm quite interested in what kind of big commotion this empress will ultimately cause."

"Besides, no matter what trouble she causes, I'm confident I can beat her into submission!"

Ember carefully put away his Soul 5 honor certificate, gave Shadow a thumbs-up, and then left on his own.

"No brains... Is he really no brains, or has he simply given up thinking because of his own abilities?"

Ying shook his head with a sigh. Perhaps only someone with Yu Jin's strength could support such a seemingly indifferent and uncaring attitude.

After a moment of reflection, Ying hurriedly ran off in the opposite direction from Yu Jin.

Ember may not care about any twists and turns, but that doesn't mean Shadow can't.

Based on what Yu Jin had just said, Ying keenly sensed that his colleague was probably about to cause some big trouble!

So, I'd better talk to my older sister about it first!

……

Another day has passed, and last night was the most comfortable night's sleep for everyone in the camp.

It was so comfortable that even with the sun shining on our backsides, the entire camp was completely undisturbed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Get up! Everyone get up!"

Ember took the two pot lids he had taken from the cooking squad and started banging them around the camp.

Even holding a sleeping pot was useless against the ear-piercing "clanging" sound. Soon, all the soldiers who were still fast asleep in the camp stood up, still sleepy-eyed.

"Ugh, I didn't do anything yesterday, so why am I even more sleepy than when I was injured?"

It's unclear whose yawn it was, but it struck a chord with most of the people in the camp.

Yesterday, apart from taking a few purple jugs, the people in the camp did almost nothing, yet they slept like logs last night.

However, Yu Jin's next words immediately roused the soldiers who were still half-asleep.

"Get ready, everyone! We're going down to film Act Three right away!"

"Huh? Lord Ember, if you want to see pig heads, you can go to Oda Village. There are plenty of pigs there. Why turn us into pig heads?"

The soldiers below, who had been groaning and complaining, immediately perked up and began to whine and complain.

Although they had discovered that fighting the dragon lizards was not life-threatening, the dragon lizards were still too rough with their attacks.

With its strong arms and legs, the dragon lizard could easily knock out a soldier like him, leaving him lying on the ground for quite a while.

There's an old saying in Heguan: "Things shouldn't be done more than three times; try a fourth time and you'll be fine."

"This is only our third time, what's the rush?"

Yu Jin uttered Aru's catchphrase, which, considering Aru's age, could be considered an old saying from He Guan.

Dark Souls 5 = Dark Souls Five = A trash player who plays Dark Souls (crossed out)

"Try hard" means to win by any means necessary (referring to mastering cheats, using a small sickle, looping, and various strange bugs).

Dear readers, if you encounter any intruders making strange moves while playing Dark Souls, please don't be afraid, because it's just a highly civilized and chivalrous Dark Souls 5 player coming to play with you!

Chapter 574 The Powerful Hypnotic Pot

2024-03-29

On the white sand beach below Haegei Island, dragon lizards are lying flat on the ground sunbathing.

They held the feathers in their hands, each one looking incredibly content.

However, occasionally, some of the dragon lizards would snap out of this unique "family bliss" and, looking at the large dragon lizards in the distance who were equally engrossed in their activity, would ask with some concern:

"Leader, humans, are we just going to ignore them?"

As one of the few wise lizards, this lizard understood the principle of "born in hardship, die in comfort" very early on.

So it is now reminding the leader to quickly find another, more peaceful place—a place with the unstable factor of humans.

The best way to avoid trouble is to run away before it comes. This may seem like a truism, and it truly is. But please don't be naive, because that's all the kind of thinking that dragon lizards can come up with.

Hearing their kin's question, the two large dragon lizards, which had been making strange gurgling noises, immediately snapped to attention. They placed the wind feathers they held on the ground and replied righteously:

"Humans are the enemy!"
