I'm in the Teyvat running group

Seeing this scene from behind, Yunxiu couldn't help but sigh that Lingyuan was indeed one of the most beautiful immortals he had ever seen. In terms of pure beauty, Lingyuan possessed a gentle and graceful beauty that was completely different from Xianyun's intellect, Funina's cuteness, Mavica's dashing spirit, Lei Dianying's grandeur, Xiaogong's innocence, Xiangling's vitality, and Shenli Linghua's nobility.

She has an otherworldly, ethereal quality, like a fairy.

No wonder Fu Jin said Ling Yuan was a remarkably beautiful fairy. To be praised so highly by another fairy shows just how exceptional Ling Yuan's beauty is...

The three of them rarely gathered together. They spoke in hushed tones for a while before stepping forward together. Lingyuan spoke first, "Immortal Yunxiu, thank you for helping Fujin and Changsheng recover much of their immortal bodies... I know your purpose, so shall we begin now?"

“Lingyuan is the eldest of the three immortals. Since she said there is no problem, then there should be no problem.” Fu Jin said with a smile. She was the first person to meet Yunxiu and believe in her powerful strength, so she naturally believed everything, especially since she was the one who sacrificed herself to save all living beings during the war between the demon gods.

"Of course I have no problem..." Yunxiu nodded. He himself was also eager to see what this legendary demon god was all about...

Ling Yuan nodded and led the group towards the very center of the Crimson Watchtower. It was said that the spatial passage sealed by the demon god was linked here, which was why Ling Yuan had been guarding this place almost all the time. As for the exact location of the seal...

As Barbielos said before, it is indeed at the Crimson Jade City Wall. However, the Crimson Jade City Wall itself is connected to the Crimson Lookout. In fact, the two were one in ancient times, but they were separated after that war. This was also to prevent that demon god from absorbing the power of Jinluoting.

Above the Crimson Lookout Platform, the Sacred Dragon connects to the Brocade Pavilion, which was also the place where this demon god and the three immortals lived in ancient times. Upon entering the Brocade Pavilion, you will see a pool of water. In both the story and reality, this is actually the place where the three immortals used to restore their immortal power.

The Azure Spirit Carp was actually released here.

The story of "where the red gaze dwells, and where brocade descends upon the clouds" is just like this.

The reason why the exit of the sealing site of Chizhang City Wall was set at Chiwangtai was, on the one hand, because the energy here was the most abundant, and the formation could draw energy from Jinluoting to maintain itself. On the other hand, Lingyuan was the closest to this place, and she was also the most important guardian.

The entire formation has four positions. Fu Jin and Ling Yuan occupied two of them, while Chang Sheng slowly walked to the third position, and Hu Tao naturally stood in the fourth position.

As for Yunxiu, he needs to stand in the very center. On the one hand, this is to provide Changsheng with enough energy. On the other hand, he can only enter by going between life and death. Hu Tao's magic is definitely not a problem, but the energy may not be enough, so Yunxiu will have to bear the burden.

"Let's begin." Yunxiu nodded to the others, and Lingyuan and Fujin immediately began to unleash a series of immortal spells.

Yunxiu then channeled her immense energy into Changsheng and Hutao, pouring millions of units of energy into Changsheng. He seemed to have no reaction at all, easily enduring it all, and then unleashed a series of spells. He himself also seemed to have grown slightly taller under the catalysis of the energy.

But there was not much at all, as if this white snake immortal originally had the appearance of a child.

With the blessing of the divine artifact and the support of Yunxiu, Hu Tao easily used the magic of the Hall of Rebirth. She quickly transformed into a stream of light and entered a strange space accompanied by butterfly-shaped petals. Soon, Yunxiu also entered with the stream of light.

The three immortals remained seated and maintained the formation. They needed to stay there until Yunxiu emerged, or shut down the formation in case of a major incident.

As for how Yunxiu will get out at that time... well, that's up to fate. Maybe we can summon the Emperor to save her?

However, Hu Tao and Yun Xiu had no interest in thinking about so many things right now. They had already entered this strange array-sealed space. From the inside, it seemed that a part of Jin Luo Ting's space had been cut off and placed here, and then sealed off with powerful immortal energy.

"This is the burial place of the legendary demon god, 'Lampeleus'?" Hu Tao exclaimed in surprise, looking at the surrounding scenery. "Doesn't it seem rather ordinary?"

"Ordinary isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least it shows that the passing of this demon god wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface..."

Perhaps the biggest problem is the absence of the problem itself...

Chapter 277 Lingmeng's Past Events Revealed in Gu Hua (Second Update on Sunday!)

Yunxiu sensed the surrounding aura, and soon cast a tenth-ring level spell, Automatic Counterattack and Shield, on Hu Tao: "There seems to be the aura of the abyss here, you need to be careful."

Yes, although the aura is quite subtle, there is indeed this strange aura here.

Could it be that the demon god was actually corrupted by the abyss's energy, causing it to perform a series of abstract actions? This is not impossible, as many demon gods throughout history have done the same...

The two walked along the only path in the space. Although the scenery was not magnificent, the further they went, the more they could see the aura of immortals. The various auspicious beasts and runes carved on the walls, the broken immortal artifacts on the ground, and the ruins and murals everywhere all proved that this place was indeed originally an immortal palace.

As for the immortals who once lived here... they must have gone to the deepest part of the celestial palace.

The sealed space wasn't very large; Hu Tao and Yun Xiu walked for less than fifteen minutes before they saw the burial place of that immortal lord, or rather, the demon god.

She remained in human form, but was firmly bound to the very center of the formation. The formation itself seemed to possess a powerful refining ability; this was where the remains of that demon god resided.

The mutilated body itself was already completely unconscious.

Under such powerful suppression, there was no possibility of transforming into a sacred skeleton beast. After all, the power of this demon god far exceeded that of the salt god Heuria. The sacred skeleton beast transformed by that demon god could not even defeat the two immortals, Xiao and Fushe, together.

The much stronger Langperius is no match for Yunxiu, let alone two more immortals. However, Yunxiu's strength doesn't lie in direct combat. Although he can now handle many immortals in one-on-one fights, in terms of pure combat and direct fighting ability, he is still far inferior to those who are good at fighting...

Of course, even the most powerful legendary-level expert wouldn't be able to defeat Yunxiu.

One aspect is that he has too many methods, and another aspect is that after becoming legendary, the Protective School mages have almost reached the point of conceptual invincibility.

Just like Yunxiu now, no one actually knows which Yunxiu this is. That's right, the legendary-level projection technique is a real existence with the same combat power as the original body, but without as many restrictions. Even if someone goes through all the trouble to break through all of Yunxiu's defenses and gets to him.

What was defeated was likely just a projection.

Even if you are lucky enough to defeat his original form, under the fixed legendary resurrection spell, a completely intact Yunxiu will appear in front of you in the next second.

However, how to get this wreckage away is still a problem... Perhaps we could try using Imprisonment and Bubble spells.

With a gentle tap, Yunxiu created a binding array around her, which she then placed on top of the original array. She then cast a series of spells to dispel the binding array.

Once the process of dismantling began, the remains started to fluctuate wildly. When she was sealed away, she already possessed formidable abilities. Yunxiu could even tell at a glance that this sealing formation not only contained the power of three immortals, but also the power of two other demon gods.

One of them was the Emperor, which at least shows that the Emperor was involved in that war back then.

The remains themselves were completely unconscious, rampaging through the confinement array. It seems that this demon god's body was almost entirely driven by instinct, with all his consciousness and some legacy likely left behind at Lingmeng Mountain. As for Chizhang City Walls alone, there probably wasn't anything else left.

Completely trapping her remains within the formation, Yunxiu rapidly shrunk the entire formation and placed it directly into her storage bag. But the next moment, several strange abyssal demons emerged from the void, one of which charged directly at Hu Tao. However, Yunxiu was already prepared.

The automatic counter-magic on Hu Tao's body was activated at this moment. All the abyss spells and energy attacks that hit her disappeared completely as if they had been thrown into the sea. Instead, they replenished Hu Tao's own energy.

In the few seconds that the monsters hesitated after their attack failed, Yunxiu easily shattered them. After collecting all the materials, just as she was about to leave with Hu Tao, another enormous legendary monster burst through the space itself and rushed towards her.

"Watch out!" Hu Tao was about to shout in surprise as she looked behind Yun Xiu, but then she saw Yun Xiu point her hand and seven huge streams of light shot out from her hand, instantly killing the legendary demon. A large amount of materials gushed down like a torrent!

Legendary-level [Explosive Jet] with seven elements!

This newly legendary-level monster couldn't even withstand a single blow from Yunxiu!

While dealing with enemies who possess laws and conceptual understanding is somewhat challenging, these legendary monsters that rely purely on strength can be defeated one by one by Yunxiu with almost no pressure.

“So powerful…” Hu Tao murmured, “Yunxiu, you are really amazing. I’ve seen a monster like this once before, and the Thousand Rock Army even mobilized an entire army.”

"You only realize that now? Will you still dare to bully me in the future?" Yunxiu said irritably. "Besides, isn't the remnant of the Demon God much more powerful?"

"I don't feel anything... You're so much better than before, it's really amazing!" Hu Tao looked excitedly at the materials and the things left behind by the monster, carefully flipping through them before saying regretfully, "It seems there's nothing I like, let's leave here quickly."

Yunxiu shook her head, took Hu Tao and left the place to continue forward. The reason why the confinement here was not difficult was mainly because the three immortals outside shared most of the pressure. What Yunxiu did was actually just move the remains out.

In order to obtain the status of a demon god, one must actually combine the remains and energy, and that will be the most difficult moment.

Part of the formation was on the walls of Chizhang City, and the other part was naturally on Lingmeng Mountain. The two walked through the space and although they could clearly feel the fluctuations of the space itself, they did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, they felt a kind of lightness. This was actually a strange experience brought about by the spatial fragmentation of the sealing formation itself.

The underground space of Shenyu Valley itself is linked by this formation, and the final exit is locked at the Crimson Lookout. This is clearly the work of the Emperor, which should also be one of the fundamental reasons why Shenyu Valley returned to Liyue after the war.

The two traveled through the formation for about fifteen minutes. The spatial fluctuations were much greater, indicating that they had arrived in another region. Yunxiu sensed it with a little effort and knew that she had indeed arrived at the foot of Lingmeng Mountain.

As for how to tell... it's by judging from the aura.

The energy aura of Lingmeng Mountain is slightly different from other places. Yunxiu had previously collected a lot of relevant information. In fact, many people, or rather, people in the stories, probably know that this demon god eventually perished here.

In the story of "Night Tales of Lingmeng Mountain", it is mentioned that this demon goddess was actually "wearing a jade skirt made of congealed blood, leaning against the long-collapsed moonlit carriage, and sleeping in the bottomless dark pool".

Just like now, Yunxiu is here, and it seems she can still hear a strange ballad...

"In the dark of day, I alone harbor resentment; a gentle breeze carries rain, and mist hangs heavy in the air."

"I am left with only the spirit of the deceased, lamenting the passing of the year; I alone resent that the virtuous one has come so late."

This is the same as what was mentioned in "Night Talks on Lingmeng Mountain"!

The meaning of this folk song is actually not complicated. It roughly means that I am resentful of lurking alone in the light of the setting sun. The wind carries rain and stirs up patches of mist, but it cannot cover everything up.

Only a lonely spirit remains here, lamenting the lost years and stories, and can only lament that you came too late...

Interestingly, all of this was actually discovered by the Guhua School. The earliest Guhua School's "Wangshan Hall" was built in this area, and in the original timeline, there was even a related storyline here.

Gu Hua sent people to do something quite abstract: the strongest sword technique requires the Water Elemental Eye to master...

However, the problem is that even if one awakens the Eye of God, it may not be the Eye of God of Water. As a result, the Ancient Hua Sect never recovered and never rose again until Xingqiu found some information about the Ancient Hua Sect and mastered the Eye of God of Water. Only then could the sect be said to have recovered some of its vitality.

However, it is also related to Teyvat itself. The elements here determine that unless there are some special reasons, you must have something like the Eye of God or the Moon Wheel to cast many fairy spells.

However, with the rapid advancement of the elemental cultivation system, Xingqiu has now promoted the vast majority of the ancient Hua School sword techniques, which is actually a good thing in itself.

The two walked forward and entered a large hall. There was a strange house with many strange books inside. Yunxiu picked up one at random and found it was the "Ancient Hua Sword Record". After flipping through it, she found that it described many sword techniques that did not require the Eye of God and could be practiced even by those with weak strength!

“Yunxiu… I’ve heard that the so-called Ancient Hua Treasure has twelve levels and many hidden sword manuals, but Xingqiu and the people of the Ancient Hua Sect have never found them. Could this be the place…” Hu Tao also opened a book and saw: “Could it be that the Ancient Hua Sect is actually far more powerful than we imagined, but their ancestor Gu Hua didn’t find all of them?”

Hu Tao's words gave Yunxiu a jolt; perhaps it really was true!

Chapter 278 The Fragment of the Mysterious Cave Scroll Deciphers the Immortal Prophecy (Third update on Sunday!)

The Ancient Hua Sect is indeed a magical sect.

In the storyline of Shenyu Valley, you will learn that the Guhua Sect was not actually created by Guhua, although there was indeed such a person as Guhua.

The legend of Gu Hua himself is that he transformed into a star in the purple aura, which led to the legend of the immortal. Thus, those who inherited Gu Hua's legacy founded the Gu Hua Group, although the name itself is actually somewhat unlucky.

Later, the Guhua Group sculpture was transformed into the Guhua Hall, and eventually into the Guhua School. In the end, only one martial arts school remained until Xingqiu revived the Guhua School.

However, Yunxiu could faintly sense a trace of immortal power from here. If that was the case, Gu Hua should indeed be a legendary powerhouse. Of course, the biggest problem for humans who become legends is still lifespan. If Gu Hua himself was not one of the very rare long-lived species among humans, even if he reached the peak of the legendary level, he would still pass away.

But there is another possibility.

Gu Hua is the incarnation of a certain immortal or demon god, which is why he possesses such powerful abilities. It is not strange that immortals and demon gods would enter the event in a dream and experience a trial of their hearts in the mortal world.

As for its eventual transformation into stars within the purple aura, that is naturally a return to its original form.

But this discovery made Yunxiu feel a little strange. After all, if the talk of Lingmeng Mountain at night mentioned that there was indeed an ancient demon god here, then the establishment of the Guhua Sect here and the fact that Guhua appeared like a shooting star and then quietly disappeared would make sense...

As for the name "Gu Hua," it's hard to say whether it's even related to the prototype of the weapon Gu Hua.

In the story of the trial of Gu Hua, it is mentioned that the craftsman Cambrian gave the weapon he forged to a knight-errant. The knight-errant said that the sword was large but delicate, so how about calling it 'Gu Hua'?

There's actually a question here: no one would name a weapon after themselves. Just like Yunxiu wouldn't see a good weapon and say, "Wow, this weapon is really good. Since so many people are going to use it, why not name it Yunxiu?"

In real life, if you encounter someone like this, you'd most likely think they're crazy.

So there are only two possibilities. One is that Gu Hua himself is not actually called Gu Hua, but the name Gu Hua spread more and more widely, and eventually, due to misinterpretation, he was also called Gu Hua. This person is also a straightforward person, so he simply went with the flow and called himself Gu Hua.

Secondly, this chivalrous person is actually Bai Xuan, who admired Gu Hua and eventually founded the Gu Hua Sect. After Gu Hua's death, he named everything he was familiar with Gu Hua, making him a true Gu Hua fanatic.

This was the initial guess.

Now it seems there is actually a third possibility: that Gu Hua was indeed an immortal or a demon god who disappeared for some reason. After Yun Xiu entered the formation and discovered this situation, this possibility became more and more likely!

Because Lingmeng Mountain is a very eerie place, the original story mentions a rather mournful ballad:

"I wish to give you the fragrant herbs, but who will keep them on the central isle?"

"Where is the laurel banner of yesteryear? I seek the lofty carriage amidst the secluded bamboo groves."
