Mona:What's wrong with The Chasm?
Keqing:The Chasm is our Liyue's largest mine. Not only does it produce common minerals, but it also has many ores that other nations don't. The porcelain of Liyue is famous throughout the Seven Nations, and that's because it uses ore from The Chasm. However, a problem occurred there some time ago, and we had no choice but to close the mine. If we can solve this problem, we won't have to worry about ore supplies anymore.
Sucrose:What exactly happened inside?
Ningguang:The main issue is that black ooze is constantly seeping out from inside The Chasm, and there have been incidents of workers becoming delirious. To ensure the people's safety, we ordered the area to be sealed. But because business has been affected, the people from the Shenglu Hall have started to become dissatisfied. The Chasm is extremely important to our Liyue. If we can handle that problem through a mission, it would be wonderful.
Ganyu:Excuse me, what treasure is inside the Lingyun Grotto that can solve the matter of The Chasm?
Su Han:The Dragon Veins!
Hu Tao:Dragon Veins? What's that? A part of a dragon's body?
Su Han:It is the spinal column of the Yellow Emperor. It has the power to suppress the fortune of the nine provinces. I think that with this item, we can solve the problem of The Chasm. It might even be able to suppress the ley lines of all of Liyue.
Beneath The Chasm lie the ruins of an ancient civilization.
There are even Khaenri'ah's Black Serpent Knights inside.
To restore The Chasm to normal, the depths of the earth must be purified.
And he was thinking, what if the power of the Dragon Veins could suppress the black ooze?
Zhongli:The fortune of the nine provinces? To think such a figure existed. He must have been an incredibly powerful existence when he was alive.
Ganyu:In that case, let me go! I am also a Qilin, and I will absolutely not lose.
Without waiting for anyone to react, she accepted the mission.
She also wanted to see for herself what the Qilin of another world was like.
As someone had accepted the mission, the group's live stream activated.
In the video, Ganyu was in her private office at Yuehai Pavilion.
Holding her Amos' Bow, she slowly faded from the room.
Mona:So that's how you go to other worlds. Now I've seen it all.
The view shifted.
Ganyu had arrived at the foot of the Great Buddha.
Looking at the impossibly tall statue, she couldn't help but be shocked. Who could have built such a magnificent sculpture?
Just then, a message came from Su Han.
Su Han:The Lingyun Grotto is at the foot of the Great Buddha, and the Fire Qilin is inside the grotto.
Ganyu:Understood.
Ganyu took a deep breath, calmed her mind, and activated her Observation Haki.
Her perception rapidly expanded.
A hundred meters.
A thousand meters.
Soon, the location of the Lingyun Grotto was locked by Ganyu.
"So it's here."
Her figure flickered, and she rushed towards the grotto.
The moment she entered the cave, she felt a scorching heat wash over her.
Waves of heat, one after another, were incredibly fierce.
As she was searching for the Fire Qilin, Su Han suddenly called out to her.
Su Han:Wait, Ganyu. Look for the Fire Qilin later. There's a treasure on the wall you just passed. Go and pick it.
Ganyu:A treasure? What treasure?
Su Han:On the wall you just passed! Those red fruits are the treasure!
Ganyu:Aren't these Blood Bodhi?!
Ganyu retreated and looked at the wall covered in fruit, her face filled with shock.
If she remembered correctly, this was one of the items from the very first batch of goods in the group shop.
It was a treasure for healing, and consuming it could even increase one's power by ten years!
It cost twenty thousand points per piece, and there were at least several dozen of them here.
Su Han:That's right, it's Blood Bodhi! We're really lucky to have gotten a mission like this. Anyway, there's no time limit for defeating the Fire Qilin. Pick some more of the fruit. We can bring them back for the Millelith to eat and cultivate a new batch of strong warriors.
Ganyu:Mm, I understand.
Ganyu quickly took out her portable storage tool and began to harvest.
In a short while, she had dozens of Blood Bodhi in hand.
A treasure worth twenty thousand points a piece, and she could just pick it for free.
This felt amazing.
After she finished harvesting, Ganyu continued to run forward.
Along the way, she saw several hundred more Blood Bodhi.
Without exception, all of them were collected into her bag.
Just as Ganyu was thinking of looking for more, an intense flame surged forth from up ahead.
The dim cave was instantly illuminated.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
It was as if a giant fireball was continuously charging towards her.
"The Fire Qilin is here!"
Ganyu's Observation Haki had very keenly captured the enemy's movements.
She drew her Amos' Bow, and a bone-chilling frost condensed on her arrowhead.
Then, she fired.
BOOM!
Flames burst forth.
The frost exploded.
The two opposing forces collided within the cave, creating a terrifying shockwave.
"ROAR!!!"
Having been attacked, the Fire Qilin let out a deafening roar, and the power of its flames rose once more.
Even the air began to distort with the heat.
Ganyu, unhurried, retreated to create distance.
The spot where she had been standing was instantly engulfed by a ball of crimson fire.
