Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

Zhongli looked at Su Zhe and said, "Why don't we split up? Su Zhe, you go to the Golden House first and retrieve the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body. The Traveler and I will prepare the rest."

Zhongli was a little worried; the immortals had come to invade, and there were some hot-tempered ones among them.

If they were to raise their wings and shout at this moment, given the Immortal's prestige in Liyue, many Liyue citizens would likely support them and turn their attention to the Seven Stars.

Therefore, he had to find a way to stop this from happening.

The best way to prevent internal conflicts from escalating is to create an external enemy.

And that's where the young master and Osel need to be brought out.

"Okay, then I'll go to the Golden House right now."

Su Zhe glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, then smiled and left.

"Zhongli, what are we supposed to do?" Paimon asked, scratching his head. "And what exactly is this Sending Off the Immortal Ceremony? Also, I heard that the Golden House is where Liyue creates Mora. Is the Immortal Ancestor's Path of Immortality actually located there?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true," Zhongli said gently. "Alright, let's go first. I'll tell you all about it on the way."

After everyone had left, a figure emerged from a corner not far from them.

"I never expected it to be in the Golden House. Young Master was right after all. These people really do know about the Immortal Ancestor's demise."

Without further hesitation, the member of the Fools headed towards the Northern Bank.

...

A golden house.

The mint on the continent of Teyvat; all the Mora in the world originates from here.

Because the creation of Mora requires the power of the Geo Archon, from another perspective, Liyue directly controls the economic lifeline of the Teyvat continent.

Of course, initially, the various countries on the continent did not form a unified economic system. The fact that Morax was able to obtain the right to manufacture currency from the initial chaotic situation is enough to show how powerful it was at the time.

Or rather, it was the people and gods of that time who truly understood Morax's power.

As time has passed, even though the divine power remains, those who revere the gods are no longer as devout as they once were.

As the saying goes, "If you don't discipline someone for three days, they'll climb onto the roof and start tearing off the tiles." A sense of awe and respect can easily be eroded over time.

At this very moment, Su Zhe arrived at Huang Sanbajiu's Golden House as quickly as possible.

Having evaded the watchful eyes of the guards outside, he successfully infiltrated the interior.

The interior space was much larger than expected, and it was renovated to be quite magnificent. As far as the eye could see, it was a golden expanse, and there was Mora everywhere, which made Su Zhe's eyes widen.

"Holy crap! How many Mora are there? If I eat them all... No, no, Kyogre, you're a legendary Pokémon with principles."

The main problem is that the money is piled up here, and Su Zhe doesn't believe that Seven Stars hasn't set a trap.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Su Zhe continued walking inside.

The manufacturing machines are located on the underground level, but the production of Mora has been temporarily halted to store the remains of the Immortal Ancestor.

Following Ningguang's instructions, he found what he was looking for in the innermost part of the room.

The colossal beast, half dragon and half scale, lay on the ground, looking majestic and imposing. Even though it was lifeless, the sense of oppression was still very obvious.

Su Zhe stood in front of the Immortal Ancestor's physical body and observed it for a moment.

Only after confirming there were no traps did he reach out his hand.

As a result, the world seemed to darken instantly upon contact.

Swish!

The scene changed, and Su Zhe felt a moment of mental disorientation. When he came to his senses, he found himself in an unfamiliar space.

Before him, a giant dragon was soaring into the sky!

"Emperor Yan Wang!?"

Su Zhe was stunned to see the dragon come to life.

Did the old man suspect his motives were impure and deliberately set a trap for him here?

No, no, if that were the case, then we wouldn't have let him come to collect the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body in the first place.

Thinking this, the dragon slowly spoke, its voice filled with majesty: "Great Sage Who Overturns the Seas".

"Your Majesty."

Su Zhe bowed slightly to show his respect.

"No need to be surprised, this is just a wisp of my divine will that I left behind, and it will soon dissipate."

Su Zhe wasn't surprised, only annoyed.

"By now, everyone in Liyue should know about my death, but I believe that even without the Geo Archon, Liyue can still continue on. However, with the current internal turmoil, we need a buffer period to stabilize the situation. Before that, I have an important matter to ask of you."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"Liyue's biggest problem right now is not the threat from external enemies, but the coercion from the immortals. They have lived in the mountains for a long time, far away from the mortal world, and may not understand Liyue now. Now that the Emperor is dead, they will definitely forcefully approach Liyue to demand justice."

"What does the Emperor want me to do?"

"You are a demon god and a celestial being, with great power. Therefore, I want you to ease the conflict between the Seven Stars and the Celestials, and to allow the celestials to truly integrate into Liyue. Liyue should be a country where humans and celestials coexist."

"I'll do it?"

Su Zhe shrugged, "But I'm not qualified enough, so the immortals wouldn't listen to me, would they?"

He's only been an immortal for a few days, how could he possibly convince those powerful immortals?

"You don't need to worry about that. Immortals also value strength. Soon, Liyue will face a great calamity. At that time, you only need to demonstrate convincing strength. Now that the Emperor is not here, if you have the ability, they will obey your orders."

catastrophe?

Su Zhe was stunned for a moment.

Is this meant for him to lead the fight against Oser?

I'm hitting myself?

"Your Majesty..." Su Zhe cried, "My strength, my strength is actually very average. Really, I'm afraid I can't even beat the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons."

"There's no need to worry about that."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light fell from the sky and landed on the ground in front of him.

"This is the Rock of No Form, which has been with me for many years. It has become sentient and can change in countless ways. It also contains powerful divine power. Using it as a weapon will significantly enhance your strength."

Su Zhe: "???"

No, sir, are you serious?

They even gave me my personal weapon? What's going on here?

"Furthermore," Zhongli continued, "the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Shedding is no longer useful, but it was formed by my divine power. If you devour it, your strength will inevitably increase further. In that case, even the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons will not be your match."

"..."

"Finally, with this wisp of my divine thought, I will inform all the immortals within Liyue to appoint you as the head of all immortals, so that all immortals will obey your commands."

nm, is this someone making a will?

"These three gifts will serve as a contract between us. I am giving them to you in exchange for your help in getting Liyue through this crisis."

Su Zhe thought for a moment and said, "Old... cough cough~ Your Majesty, let me make this clear first, I have no intention of becoming the Geo Archon. I can help you through this difficult time, and I will also lend a hand if Liyue encounters any problems in the future, but I will not become the Geo Archon."

Unable to refuse either way, Su Zhe could only think of another way later.

It's just fighting Oser, right? Let's fight!

But that's all there is to it.

Gods? I wouldn't even be a dog!

Anyway, the old man didn't really step down.

Besides, being a free and unrestrained little whale, spouting water in the sea from time to time, and swimming innocently with girls, how carefree and happy would that be?

Besides, he now possesses the hourglass of time and is the god of the sea; a mere divine position is not worth having.

Zhongli was silent for a moment, then nodded: "That's how the contract is."

Hearing Zhongli say that, Su Zhe felt relieved.

He reached out and grabbed the rock spear. With a thought, the spear instantly transformed into a pair of gauntlets covering his hands.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad."

Feeling the powerful force surging from his hands, Su Zhe nodded in satisfaction.

He was worried about not having a handy weapon to use after his harpoon broke.

Now that's great, with this thing turned into a trap, his physical advantages can be maximized.

"Su Zhe, the rest is up to you."

The sounds echoing in the space slowly dissipated, and the scene around him shifted, showing Su Zhe back inside the golden house.

Looking at the immortal ancestor's physical form before him, he pondered for a moment, but did not choose to devour it immediately.

"At this time, the young master should be arriving soon."

Thinking this, Su Zhe threw the Immortal Ancestor's molted body into Kyogre's mouth, then condensed the power of the Rock God and used elemental power to create an identical shell.

Then, in a flash, he disappeared into the golden house.

...

Swish!

A flash of blue light streaked past, and the young master, his path streaked with sparks and lightning, finally arrived at the outer perimeter of the Golden House.

"It's so well guarded; it seems the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body is really hidden here."

Looking around, Su Zhe was nowhere to be seen.

That's right. He came at full speed. No matter how fast Su Zhe is, he doesn't know he's there, so he definitely won't go all out.

They should be on their way now.

Thinking of this, the young master no longer hesitated. With a few leaps, he avoided the Qianyan Army's sight and entered the Golden House.

"Ha~ There's quite a lot of Mora, but unfortunately I'm not interested."
