Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

However, the word 'demon god' didn't really have a concrete meaning for her. Her priority was to complete the task assigned by her master.

"Take her in, consider it a favor to me. I'll owe you one, and I'll definitely help you if you ever need anything in the future, okay?"

Ningguang looked up and asked.

Su Zhe nodded again.

He had originally planned to go in and take a look.

As for the problem that the demonic aura could not escape after sealing this place, he did not care.

To put it bluntly, with his current strength, he wouldn't dare to devour the remnants of the demon god inside.

If the resentment is too strong, forcibly devouring it will only affect one's mind, and one might even be 'possessed' by the remaining demonic will.

On the other hand, if he could complete the seal, he could slowly absorb the demonic remnants accumulated here, which would be no less beneficial than devouring that giant squid.

Moreover, you'll also gain Ningguang's favor.

It's a sure thing, you can't lose money.

Having made up his mind, Su Zhe plunged headlong into the sealed space, and just before landing, he controlled the water flow to form a pool to catch him.

Using this pool, he can move around on land.

Shen He didn't say anything, but lightly stepped onto the huge back.

This was Su Zhe's first time carrying someone on his back. This feeling reminded him of the giant turtle that carried Tang Sanzang and his companions across the Tongtian River when he watched Journey to the West.

Shen He, please ask the Emperor for me when I can attain immortality.

Su Zhe thought with a wicked sense of humor.

Then, the man and the demon set off into the depths of the ruins.

Chapter 20 The White-Haired Immortal, The White-Haired Demon

"It's really terrifying in here."

Su Zhe realized that he had underestimated the place where the demon god was sealed.

As he carried Shen He deeper into the interior, the demonic aura became increasingly intense, and its influence on people grew stronger.

Fortunately, Shen He's magic was able to isolate the erosion of these demonic powers. She enhanced herself with talismans, which also helped Su Zhe resist some of the damage.

Su Zhe himself is a demon god. He can use his aura to resist the erosion of external forces, and he can also use it to protect Shen He.

It was precisely because of the mutual help between the two that they were able to get here successfully.

But everything has its limits. As they went deeper, no broken seal appeared, so Su Zhe stopped and hesitated.

"Keep going."

Shen He said calmly.

Although her tone was the same as before, Su Zhe could feel that the powerful resentment of the demon god was trying to erode her sanity.

The demon god sealed here must have died not long ago.

It is at least within the last five hundred years.

Therefore, the demon god's resentment gathers and does not disperse. If it were at the center of the seal, the dominant consciousness of the demon god's will would probably still remain. Not to mention Shen He, even Su Zhe would be dead immediately.

"If the seal is not repaired, more people and more beasts will be harmed."

Shen He continued.

All she could think about was how to complete the mission and do what her master had assigned her.

But they never consider what dangers they might encounter if they go any deeper inside.

This is also why Ningguang didn't let her come in to check the situation before.

Ningguang's eye for people is probably the most accurate in all of Liyue. Although she has not known Shenhe for long, she can tell his personality at a glance.

There was nothing they could do; only Shen He knew how to repair the seal.

In truth, she was already secretly furious, cursing the immortal a hundred times over for sending his disciple over such a big matter.

But she dared not say it out loud, otherwise, if she were labeled as 'disrespectful to the immortal master,' even though she was one of the Seven Stars, she would probably not have a good time.

Seeing Shen He's resolute tone, Su Zhe had no choice but to continue walking inside.

A few more minutes passed.

Su Zhe could sense that the broken part of the seal was not far ahead.

But just then, Shen He, who was standing on his back, suddenly let out a muffled groan and collapsed.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on?"

Su Zhe discovered that the surrounding black energy, as if drawn by some force, was surging wildly toward Shen He!

"not good!"

Normally, the resentment of demons can erode one's mind, but if it is blocked, it can only slowly seep into the body.

Once the compromised target loses its ability to resist, it's like opening a box.

To the demon's resentment, vibrant life is like a passageway for a beautiful girl, something to be hated and blocked.

The target of resentment is a person's mental strength. It amplifies the fear deep in one's heart to an infinite degree, eventually causing the person's mind to completely collapse, thereby seizing control of the body.

Shen He had been desperately resisting the invasion of the demon god's resentment, but in the end he still failed.

The key to resisting this thing lies not in strength, but in mindset.

Having a brave and fearless heart is more important than anything else.

Shen He was abandoned by her father at a young age and fought alone against evil spirits formed from the power of the demon god. That memory is the thing she fears most deep in her heart.

In addition, his fate is marked by loneliness and malice, and he is born with a bloodthirsty nature.

All these factors were deliberately amplified by the will of the demon god at this moment.

Shen He felt a voice constantly echoing deep within his heart.

Kill them.

Release it.

Destroy everything!

"no, do not want..."

Shen He covered his ears and shook his head vigorously, trying to stop the sound.

No matter what she did, the voice kept lingering in her ears.

She covered her ears, but could still hear the seductive, bewitching voice.

With her eyes closed, she could see a little girl fighting stubbornly in the dark cave.

"It's all because of you that your mother died!"

"You jinx, why aren't you dead yet?! Why aren't you dead yet?!"

Chapter 20 The White-Haired Immortal, The White-Haired Demon >>

That was a voice she knew all too well, but she hadn't heard it since that day.

Shen He had almost forgotten what the other person looked like.

But she always remembered being led into a dark cave in a daze, where terrible evil spirits were causing trouble. She was terrified and kept crying and screaming, but in the end, no one came to save her when she was exhausted.

In the end, all she could do was keep fighting, suppressing her fear, until she became completely numb.

boom!--

An evil aura, like a flood, spread outwards.

The violent frost power exploded within the sealed space.

At the same time, the red rope tied to her hair quietly came off.

Shen He struggled to his feet, his smooth white hair fluttering in the air as the cold aura spread.

But those strands of silvery-white icicles were now tinged with black, making her look like a demon!

...

"Ok?"

Ningguang, who was waiting quietly at the entrance of the sealed space, couldn't help but frown when she sensed the appearance of that unusual aura.

On the other side...

At the summit of Lonely Cloud Pavilion, a young man holding a green spear gazed into the distance.

Seemingly sensing something, his eyes sharpened, and he was about to act when a voice called out to him.

"Great Sage Who Subdues Demons, please wait a moment."

A crane flew down from the sky.

Xiao turned his head to look at her, waiting for what would happen next.

"This is the child's calamity."

"It's too dangerous," Xiao whispered. "The demon god there fell too recently, and his resentment lingers. Even you and I will be affected."

“I already knew about these things before I contacted you.”

"So, you intentionally sent her here?"

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun nodded slightly; she had indeed done so intentionally.

"That child has a special constitution and suffered hardships in her childhood. Although the red rope can suppress the evil spirit, it is only a temporary solution. In the long run, she will lose her humanity. The only way to solve this problem is to let her face her inner fears and overcome them with a strong will."

"This is also my last lesson to her."

Shen He was exceptionally intelligent and had excellent aptitude. He became a disciple of Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, but he also received instruction from other immortals.

She's good in every way, but her temperament is a major problem.

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun has always wanted her to integrate into the secular world and resolve her inner conflicts, but given the current situation, if she goes to Liyue Harbor, she might turn into a white-haired demon in less than two days.

Therefore, she has to find a way to prevent this from happening.
