Genshin Impact: A Mortal's Ascension to Godhood

Pillars of Morax

The dinner was a great success. As if to echo this success, the sailors found traces left by the pirates on the tenth day after they set out from Liyue.

Because Lonely Cloud Pavilion is located on a peculiarly shaped island chain, it is reasonable to only check all the small islands on the island chain. These islands are rarely visited by people, and almost no Liyue people are bored and come to Lonely Cloud Pavilion for tourism. At most, passing merchants will stop on the islands to rest. However, there are not many suitable ports near the islands, and the sea near Lonely Cloud Pavilion is occasionally windy and rough, so these islands have retained their original ecology.

The arrival of the sea aid team changed everything - the sailors built a simple port, and the observation team and the mapping team surveyed the nearby hydrological and geographical environment together, and further refined the nearby sea charts. Li Tao's combat team went to the island to look for traces of pirates while sweeping the nearby monsters. Although new monsters will soon appear in places where elemental power is rich, at least the monster atlas on the island has been updated, so that merchants who come to the vicinity of Guyun Pavilion in the future will know which islands have what monsters.

The traces left by the pirates were found on a small island that looked like a heart. Li Tao called it Tasmania Island. Well, this was a little legacy left to him by his high school geography. But the other members of the Haiyuan team named the island simply and crudely - Love Island. In short, it was on Love Island that everyone easily found the alchemical instruments left by the pirates.

"Are there alchemists among the pirates?" Li Tao had a headache, but he could understand. Almost all criminal groups that could run rampant in the suburbs of Liyue (such as the treasure-stealing group) had to learn to deal with elemental forces. They were unlikely to be favored by the Seven Gods and obtain the Eye of God, so they thought of other ways to use and control elemental forces - alchemy.

Some alchemical techniques can seal elemental forces in objects, and even ordinary people can use these objects. The simplest and crudest elemental creation is the elemental bottle, which is to compress a group of unstable elemental forces into the bottle. You only need to throw it out, and the elemental force will react quickly to achieve the effect of killing the enemy.

In other words, if the pirates don't master some tricks to use elemental power to enter prison, they would be embarrassed to say that they are a criminal group.

Li Tao himself knew nothing about alchemy, and only knew what it was. However, the alchemy equipment left by the pirates on Love Island was very complicated, and Li Tao could not understand it at all. After finding out about it, he reported it to the leaders of the Marine Aid Team, giving them a headache.

The next day, no one knew what the leaders of the Marine Aid Team discussed, but the team once again determined the course - the target was Longxiang Island, southeast of Guyun Pavilion.

Long Xiang Island is named because its shape is like a flying dragon. This island is very large, with a large area of ​​ruins on it, and many monsters, including the Hillmen, live there. The west side of the island is a flat coast, and the terrain becomes steeper as you go east. The Marine Rescue Team landed on the west side of the island, leaving some sailors to guard the ship, and then all the members moved towards the center of the island.

Li Tao was somewhat puzzled by the actions of the Marine Aid Team. Could it be that the pirates would really hide on such a conspicuous island? However, considering the generous reward, he did not question it directly, but kept on going.

The group walked along the mountain range in the middle of the island, at the foot of the mountain. They bypassed the grassland, desert and coast, and finally arrived at the high ground in the middle of Longxiang Island. There were indeed no pirates there, but there stood a towering statue - the Seven-Day Statue of the Rock God Morax!

"Ah?" Li Tao was a little dumbfounded. Aren't we looking for pirates? How did we find Prince Yan?

Li Tao's doubts were not answered yet, and he saw several Qianyan soldiers walking towards the statue of the Rock God. They walked in front of the statue, picked up their own Rock God Eyes, and prayed sincerely to the Rock Lord.

Li Tao felt that his worldview had exploded at first, but then he realized that he was narrow-minded - there are gods in this world, so what's wrong with people worshipping them? Isn't this a normal thing? Maybe Morax will respond when he's in a good mood... Shit!

Amid the worship and disbelief of the crowd, the Seven-Day God Statue began to glow. A layer of light, earthy yellow light representing the rock element enveloped the entire body of the hooded stone statue, and then the light became stronger and stronger, reaching straight into the sky, and the scene was very shocking.

At this moment, Li Tao actually felt something familiar from the Seven Heavens Statue... It was something he had felt from the [Buddha Statue] outside the sky, some fragments of consciousness or memory. Strong curiosity drove him to let go of his consciousness, and those fragments of memory seemed to have infinite gravity, drawing his spirit into them completely -

Li Tao saw it. Hundreds of years ago, this place was just a sea. On the sea, there was a snake-like demon with many heads, calling the wind and rain, wreaking havoc at will. It was the Whirlpool Demon God Osel.

The entire Yunlai Sea is its incarnation, and it can draw endless power from the ocean. Its different heads have their own consciousness, and each head is a part of its life. Therefore, it will not die until all its heads are chopped off.

The memory fragments flickered, and several scenes about the battle between Osel and the rock god Morax in the Demon War quickly passed by. Li Tao only saw Morax suppressing all of Osel's heads at the same time with extraordinary force and sealing them in the sea.

The scene freezes at the last moment: Morax holds the spear tightly and throws it towards the sea with all his strength. The spear is full of rock elemental power, and the heavy spear in the hands of the rock god is as easy to use as an arm, hitting wherever it is pointed. The powerful spear and the tough heart are tightly combined - all the emotions and strength that Morax carries are concentrated in this spear.

The spear flew out without hesitation, thrusting into the sea with an unstoppable momentum, and then split the sea with earth-shaking force, revealing the smooth and moist seabed. Under the blessing of the increased rock elemental force, a large amount of rock was generated out of thin air, and the volcano on the seabed was also detonated under the powerful force, and a huge amount of magma gushed out, and together with the rocks created by the rock elemental force, cooled and condensed to form the foundation of the island.

Thousands of rocks were created and flew towards the demon in the deep sea. It was driven into the deepest trench by waves of attacks, but its vitality was still tenacious. So Morax used the islands he created and the towering spears to suppress it fiercely.

Yes, under this island, a part of Osel's body is suppressed. As time passes, Morax has retired, but the things he left behind still protect the people of Liyue.

The memory fragments contained in the statue of the Seven Gods came to an abrupt end here.

When Li Tao came back to his senses and looked at the Seven-Day Statue again, he suddenly heard an earth-shaking shout: "The Pillar of Morax! It's the Pillar of Morax!"

The light on the Seven-day God Statue pointed to a location in the sea. When the sea water slowly receded, Li Tao and other members of the Marine Aid Team saw a rock pillar covered with seaweed and shells appear on the north side of Longxiang Island.

"That's the Pillar of Morax... According to legend, the spear used by the Rock God thousands of years ago was left here forever to suppress the demon." Li Tao had also seen the introduction of the Pillar of Morax in the Teyvat Travel Guide, but this pillar has always been hidden deep under the sea, and it is usually difficult to see it from the sea surface. This time, the Rock God appeared and suddenly showed everyone his skills.

"But what's the point of doing this...ah?" What surprised Li Tao again was that the leaders of the Sea Aid Team moved the pirate's alchemical item found on Love Island directly in front of the Seven Days Statue. The Seven Days Statue was also very considerate. After the majestic rock elemental force enveloped the alchemical item, it turned into a beam of light and shot directly at the Morax Pillar. Then, the Morax Pillar pointed out the source of the elemental force contained in the alchemical item to the people of the Sea Aid Team -

"This is really a little knife pulling the butt - I've opened my eyes." Li Tao was also convinced. Old Master Zhongli, you are not really watching the situation here, are you?

This experience also provided Li Tao with some lessons: when encountering difficulties in Teyvat, it is completely okay to pray to God. This is also a scientific method......
