Genshin Impact, but the chat group

"Thank you so much!"

The Great Tree King bowed its head in gratitude.

"By the way, we haven't asked you your name yet. What's your name?"

"My name... you can just call me Ah Ci."

"Ah Ci, what a nice name. Welcome to my inner world."

44. I turned green, and I became stronger!

Li Yue has turned green! And she's become stronger too!

After the Great Tree King expressed its willingness to pay the price, Li Yue's inner world completely accepted the Great Tree King's power. Li Yue could directly use the Great Tree King's power, but the price was that Li Yue turned green! Physically green.

Her originally jet-black hair now had a small tuft of light green at the tips, just like Nasida's hair, except that Nasida's hair was white gradually turning green, while Li Yue's was jet black gradually turning green.

Looking at her hair tips that had turned green, Li Yue couldn't help but start thinking.

If you get a grass element, your hair will turn green. If you get a lightning element, will you get more purple? And if you get a wind and ice element from the North Wind Wolf, will you get more white and cyan?

Goodness, if I could gather all seven elements, my hair would probably have seven different gradient colors. The seven element colors plus the original black would be a colorful black!

"Li Yuejun, how do you feel about the new power?"

Aizen, standing to the side, watched the change in Li Yue's hair color and was filled with curiosity about Li Yue's current situation.

"Yeah, it feels pretty good."

Li Yue released his left hand that was holding his hair, stretched it out forward, and green light spots emerged from his palm.

"First, there's the most basic grass element. I can now use the power of the grass element to directly use it to grow plants, even in lifeless deserts."

Accompanied by green specks of light, thick trees grew out directly.

Looking at the trees that she had forced to grow, Li Yue felt a very strange feeling, because this group really looked like a man who could summon whatever he wanted by clapping his hands. Maybe she could actually cosplay him when people from the Five Villages Mech Fighting World came to the chat group in the future!

"Mastering the grass element is the most basic skill, but in addition, I also possess the power of the Great Tree King."

The Great Tree King possesses two powers: one is the dream power inherited from the Grass God, and the other is the ability to directly link one's consciousness to the World Tree and query all information within it.

The power of dreams can directly invade the other person's mind, control their dreams, and even create fantastical illusions in reality. Linking to the World Tree to search for information, or Teyvat Baidu for short, allows you to find all information about the continent of Teyvat!

Li Yue did not obtain the ability to link to the World Tree; instead, he obtained the power of dreams. As for why he could not link to the World Tree, it was probably because he was not a native of Teyvat.

"Dream powers?"

"That's right, the power of dreams allows one to see everything the other person is thinking and to put them into a dream, as well as to create illusions in reality."

As Li Yue spoke, he directly activated his dream powers. His eyes glowed green, and the tips of his green hair were also lit up. Then, the world that Aizen saw changed.

The once empty World Tree space has suddenly transformed into a boundless grassland, and the World Tree itself has become a colossal, towering tree. Its massive canopy, covered in green leaves, sways gently in the breeze, and on the canopy, some elves with transparent wings on their backs are flying happily.

The World Tree space suddenly transformed into the Elf Tree, a common feature in Japanese Western fantasy worldviews.

Out of curiosity, Aizen reached out and touched the tree trunk, discovering that he could actually touch it; it wasn't an illusion.

"This is?"

A surprised Aizen turned to look at Li Yue.

"Completely hypnotic?"

Aizen knew that all of this was created by Li Yue, which meant that it was all fake. But this fake thing could be touched, no, it should be said that others could feel it, just like Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu, which could directly control the enemy's five senses and make the other party think that they had touched it. It was a complete hypnosis that could easily control others!

"It's a complete form of hypnosis, but it's different from 'illusory visions' or 'illusory reflections'."

Li Yue raised her hand and braced herself against the ground in front of her. The original grassland disappeared and turned into a huge green sphere of light, enveloping the entire World Tree space.

"The power of this ability is omnipresent. Unlike the 'mirage' or 'illusion' abilities, which can hypnotize people forever with just one control, this control is centered on me within a certain range. Everyone will be directly controlled, but once they leave this range, they will no longer be controlled. It cannot be a one-time solution. However, even if they leave the range of my ability, they will still see the illusions I create, because these illusions are projections I create. They can be used as a large-scale projection. However, people who leave the range of my ability can no longer judge whether these projections are real or fake by touching them."

This is a very interesting situation. People within the realm of dream power have their five senses manipulated, making them believe that they are actually touching it and that it is all real. However, people outside the realm of dream power can see everything in the illusion from afar, but they have no way to touch it to test whether the illusion is real or not, so they cannot be sure that it is all fake.

This dream-based power can work on demons, but its combat effectiveness is not strong for them. This is because every demon skilled in combat can launch indiscriminate attacks over a very large area. This is a common weakness of illusion-type abilities, just like the illusion of a reflection in a mirror or the moon in the water. Against enemies with powerful attacks over a very large area, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

This dreamlike power inherited from the Great Tree King can be simply described as mind reading combined with dream manipulation, illusion magic, and control of the five senses, making it a very powerful area-of-effect control skill.

Not only that, this illusion can also be used on oneself, for example.

With a flash of green light, Li Yue in front of Aizen transformed into the later Aizen with his slicked-back hair, coldly staring at the real Aizen.

"When did you begin to have the illusion that I wasn't using the illusion of a mirage?"

"..."

Aizen stared silently at the [Aizen] before him, recalling Li Yue's personality, and felt that this kind of situation might occur on a large scale in the future!

"In short, this dream power is very interesting, and its potential is extremely high!"

As Li Yue spoke, she kept changing her image, from the original Aizen to Gin Ichimaru, then to Ichigo Kurosaki, and even to the Great Tree King, before finally becoming herself again.

"Originally, Li Yuejun, your ability was more offensive but lacked control. But now you have both offensive and control abilities. Now, all you need to do is increase your spiritual pressure, and your last weakness will be overcome."

"That's right, now I can use illusions to conceal my attacks, allowing me to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy at the crucial moment!"

Li Yue nodded happily. The Yamato's wide-range dimensional slash was indeed very strong, but the initial charging and swinging motions were unavoidable. However, now he could directly use illusions to cover up the charging and swinging motions. Li Yue's offensive methods were now comprehensive! All that was missing was to increase his spiritual pressure to enhance his defense and attack power!

However, spiritual pressure is something that needs to be accumulated over time. Starting at the level of Six Carts of the West is already considered genius among geniuses for a Shinigami in Soul Society. Li Yue is not in a hurry. He is in a hurry to find the next soul.

The portal to Inazuma has never been opened, so the next target is the Boreas in Mondstadt!

"Let's go, Godfather, let's find the next one!"

"Ah, I'm also looking forward to seeing what new abilities you'll gain next, Li Yue."

45. He wouldn't even call me godfather anymore!

In the moonlight, two dark figures were slowly making their way into the depths of the Wolfrune Territory in Mondstadt. They were Li Yue and Aizen, who had just returned from Sumeru.

As a semi-local, Li Yue was leading the way while telling Aizen the story of the North Wind Wolf.

"The demon god hidden within the Wolf's Lair is Andrius, but now only his remnant soul remains. The remnant soul is named Boreas. Andrius was once known as the King of the North Wind, meaning the cold wind that brings death, and he controlled the elements of wind and ice."

"During the War of the Demon Gods, Andrius was a strong contender for the title of Wind God in Mondstadt. At that time, the strongest Demon God in Mondstadt was Dekalbian, the Demon God of Tornadoes, an extremely powerful Wind Demon God, and the most promising Demon God to become the Wind God. Andrius challenged him as a challenger. Dekalbian built a tower and was known as the Lone King of the Tower. He refused Andrius's challenge, but the Lone King of the Tower's rule bound the humans under his rule, keeping them forever confined within the tower. Humans, yearning for freedom, led by a wind spirit, overthrew Dekalbian."

"Andrius witnessed humanity overthrowing the rule of Dekalbian. At that time, in Mondstadt, apart from the wind spirit who led humanity to overthrow Dekalbian, he was the strongest Daedric Prince. He could easily have obtained the position of Anemo Archon, but he withdrew from the war for the title because he believed that his personality might not be suitable for being a Daedric Prince. All Daedric Princes love people, even rulers like Dekalbian were no exception. However, the way Daedric Princes love people is often different from what humans think, and may even harm humans."

"Having no ability to care for humanity, Andrius chose to leave, relinquishing his position as the Aeolus and transforming into the Wolf King of the North Wind, wandering the land. After a thousand years of wandering, he encountered a human knight who was also wandering. He recognized the young human knight's worth, and the two wandered and fought together on the land. This knight was thus known as the Knight of the North Wind. They wandered together for several years until they finally settled in Mondstadt."

"The knight stayed in Mondstadt and did not continue to wander, and the King Wolf of the North Wind also did not continue to wander. He also stayed in the Wolf Forest outside Mondstadt, watching over Mondstadt where the knight lived, until the monsters attacked and the knight went out of the city for the second time. The King Wolf smelled the knight's scent and came to his side again. After many years, they still cooperated perfectly, fighting and hunting together."

"However, sadly, the King Wolf did not have much time left after the battle. The knights took the King Wolf back to Mondstadt and buried him in the Wolf Forest. The King Wolf poured his remaining strength into the earth, forever protecting this land and its inhabitants. His remaining soul dwells in the Wolf Territory, becoming the lord of the wolves, watching over this verdant land."

"So, what we need to find now is the remnant soul of the North Wind King Wolf."

Li Yue recounted the story of the North Wind Wolf King that she knew. As for whether there were any errors, Li Yue didn't care, because Mihoyo hadn't explained it completely either. As long as it was roughly true, that was fine. Didn't you see that Aizen was listening with great interest?

"I see. The Demon God of the North Wind, huh? The cold north wind, so it controls both ice and wind elements. This should be the only one among the demon gods you mentioned that possesses both elements."

"I don't know what elements the other demon gods possess, but the North Wind Wolf does possess two elements."

"So once I get the remnant soul of the North Wind Wolf, I should be able to obtain two elements at once. At least I won't have to go all the way to Winter Solstice to find the Ice Elemental Demon God. After all, the Winter Solstice map hasn't been opened yet, and I don't even know how to get there."

"Alright, this is it."

As they spoke, the two had already arrived at the deepest part of the Wolf March, the burial place of the King Wolf, inside the circular sinkhole known as the Trial Ground.

"Amitabha Buddha, this place is a place of affinity with this humble monk."

As he spoke, Li Yue had transformed into a muscular monk wearing a red kasaya, someone a modern person would recognize at a glance.

Wow, isn't that Vincent Zhao?!

“Lord Aizen, please wait here for a moment while I go to capture the demon below.”

Li Yue clasped her hands together, bowed slightly to Aizen, and then jumped into the trial grounds.

Aizen's lips twitched slightly. On the way here, Li Yue had already used his dream power to transform into various forms, including men, women, old and young, and even non-humans. Although Li Yue was a bit of a fun-loving person, his actions were at least somewhat predictable. But since obtaining this dream power, Li Yue has completely let loose.

He wouldn't even call me godfather anymore!

Just as Aizen thought to himself, when Li Yue first arrived in Teyvat, although he was a bit of a fun-loving person, he wasn't so carefree as to be reckless. This wretched place was full of dangers. The Fatui and the Abyss monsters were the obvious threats, and there were also the seven goofy gods lurking in the shadows. Luckily, Li Yue's starting point was in Liyue, where Xiao was a responsible immortal who worked the fields every day. If he had been in another country, he would have been dead by now. So he would only tease Zhongli in Liyue Harbor when he had nothing to do, instead of recklessly courting death.

Li Yue now possesses the power of a captain-level Grim Reaper, coupled with the authority of the Great Tree King. He can now be considered a demon god-level fighter. Although he may rank relatively low among demon gods, a low-ranking demon god is still a demon god. In particular, he also has the ability to escape through a spatial portal, so he can finally let loose and have some fun!

Li Yue, who jumped into the trial pit, walked to the blue greatsword, the Wolf's End, left by the Knight of the North Wind, and also a symbol of the trial. Touching this greatsword would attract the attention of Andrius's remnant soul, thus starting the trial of the King Wolf.

But Li Yue's actions were more direct.

"What kind of demon are you here? Show yourself at once!"

After saying that, he kicked it, sending Wolf's End flying.

Ouch——

The moment Wolf's End was kicked away, Andrius was awakened. A layer of white mist appeared, and a huge king wolf with white and light blue colors slowly emerged from the totem in front of him, its blue eyes staring at the bald head that had just kicked Wolf's End.

"Humans, prepare to face..."

"Monster, I can tell you're not human at first glance!"

Before Andrius could finish his pretentious line, Li Yue interrupted him.

What the hell? Do I look like a genius?!

Andrius, who was interrupted, looked bewildered, but he still patiently spoke up.

"Human, watch your manners..."

"How dare a mere wolf demon be so arrogant!"

Li Yue lifted her cassock, revealing the golden dragon on her back.

"The mighty Tianlong!"

Great Heavenly Dragon~~~

Li Yue's voice echoed throughout the entire Trial Pit, and the golden dragon tattoo on his back fell off, transforming into a real golden dragon that circled around Li Yue.

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, World-Honored Ksitigarbha, Prajna Buddhas, Prajna Paramita!"

With a wave of his hand, Li Yue caused the golden dragon to instantly expand to ten times its original size before lunging towards Andrius.

Andrius was dumbfounded. What's going on? What's wrong with this guy? Didn't you come here to participate in the trial? At least let me finish speaking. Why did you suddenly bring out a dragon that looks so powerful?

Confused, Andrius dodged the golden dragon with a backflip. The dragon slammed into the ground, creating a crater.

"who are you!"
