Genshin Impact: Liyue Sword Master, players go crazy

In the afternoon, Mu Yang followed several warriors from the Xuanmu tribe to the back mountain.

Before reaching the top of the mountain, Mu Yang could already feel the breath of the abyss.

However, the breath was very weak.

As soon as we reached the mountain, we saw the remnants of the abyss.

"It is indeed the pollution of the Abyss. I think the riot of the Mountain King is also related to them."

Trinidad frowned.

Mu Yang now connects the dots.

It should be that when I drew my sword, I alarmed the nearby abyss pollution.

Their unusual movements were the key to alarming the Mountain King.

Although the cause is still myself...

There is no other way, so just help them settle the matter.

Trinidad asked someone to bring a torch. "This is the secondary holy fire brought back from the Holy Fire Arena. It contains the power of the Lord of Fire."

"Although we can't go to the Kingdom of the Night God to ask for the legendary tempering fire, the holy fire is enough to burn away the filth of the abyss. We can see it this way in the ceremony."

Mu Yang knew that the power of this level of holy fire was limited.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many ceremonies.

Mu Yang took the torch and listened to Trinidad describe the entire tempering process.

First, the firewalker must fetch the sacred fire at the starting point, fly up to the sky with his grappling hook, and light all the sacred fire pillars in succession.

Then go down through the canyon to the cave where the mountain king sleeps, and light the fire basins and the final sacred fire altar along the way.

"An excellent fire swimmer can do it without landing once. Although I don't want to admit it, Kinich can do it."

"Oh?" Mu Yang looked at the torch in his hand.

Could this guy be trying to provoke me?

Seeing Mu Yang's thoughtful expression, Trinidad immediately added.

"Please rest assured that this is not a requirement of the ceremony. It doesn't matter even if you land. There is only one real requirement of the ceremony, and that is that you cannot turn back."

It would have been fine if he hadn't added this sentence, but once he did, Mu Yang felt that this was a provocation.

Then I have to perform well and not lose points.

As for the fact that there is no turning back, that is even simpler.

The Hanging Wood People have their own beliefs.

The fire walker must always keep moving forward and cannot cross one sacred fire pillar to light the next one and then come back.

That was considered a blasphemy against the ancestors.

But even if it really turns back, it probably won't be as horrific as the burning flames in the legend.

But since I have accepted the commission, I have to do it perfectly.

This is one of Mu Yang's principles of conduct.

Either don’t do it, or do your best if you do it.

After listening to all the steps, Mu Yang took the torch and set off.

With his light body, it was no problem for him to clear out these remnants of the abyss.

After all the braziers were lit, Trinidad came over.

His face was full of smiles, and he was 100% or even 90% satisfied with Mu Yang's performance.

"It's amazing. Your performance even surpassed that of Kinich. My judgment was correct."

Afterwards, he turned around and spoke a few words to the two juniors.

The junior nodded and went to carry out the order.

"Don't get me wrong. I just asked him to inform the other candidates that they don't need to prepare anything. You are the best candidate."

"It is no exaggeration to say that if you were a Nata, an ancient name like [Youhuo] would probably belong to you."

The performance of Qinggong made the elder of the Hanging Wood Man speechless.

He kept praising Mu Yang.

"There are still a few days until the Fire Returning Night. I need to go back and inform the chief and several other elders that I have successfully found a suitable fire swimmer."

Trinidad said goodbye after he finished speaking, and before leaving he arranged the highest level of treatment for Mu Yang.

However, Mu Yang also saw the clues.

There is more than one candidate for Fire Night this time.

In other words, there are also two voices within the Hanging Wood People's tribe.

The reason why Trinidad took a fancy to me must be because of the power of "Sword Walking on Mountains and Rivers".

"He wants me to take this opportunity to kill the Mountain King..."

The King of the Mountain should be the glory of the Hanging Woodman, right?

Could it be that he went to extremes because his dragon partner was injured?

But his feelings are understandable.

The glory of the past will be paid for by people now and even in the future.

His worries are justified if the mountain king with the aura of the abyss riots.

If the God of Fire couldn't arrive in time, there would probably be heavy casualties.

However, can the Hanging Wood Man accept the death of the Mountain King, who exists like a totem?

Trinidad was just one of the elders.

The Hanging Wood People should be divided into at least two factions.

I don’t know which faction the leader belongs to.

Mu Yang is struggling with how to avoid offending both sides.

After all, he just wanted to do business with Xuanmu Ren.

Instead of coming here to divide people.

That night, Kinich found Mu Yang.

"You accepted the terms of the Trinidad elders?"

Mu Yang nodded, "The price he offered is not bad."

Mu Yang didn't feel that he had taken away Kinich's job.

There are many candidates, he is just the most powerful one among them.

"Elder Trinidad may have concealed his true purpose. He wants to solve the problem of the Mountain King in one go. You should have seen that, right?"

After spending the past two days together, Kinich has come to realize that Mu Yang doesn't like to beat around the bush.

Moreover, Mu Yang is very smart and should be able to analyze the pros and cons.

Mu Yang nodded, "He should be interested in my sword, the one that cut open the gate to the abyss..."

"Yes, he hopes to use you to help the Mountain King return to the Kingdom of Night God."

"Mountain King, is it the honor of the Hanging Wood Man?" Mu Yang said.

"Everything has a price, including honor. Nanna will not be the last dragon to be hurt."

Mu Yang asked, "You mean, he concealed part of the truth?"

"That's right..."

According to Kinich.

After hundreds of years of pollution, the Mountain King has been corroded by evil forces, and its body has become irreversibly abyssal.

The power of the abyss will drive it crazy, but it is also because of the power of the abyss that it can maintain its life.

In other words, as long as the abyss is completely dispelled, the Mountain King will die.

The rituals of previous years would only dispel about half of the power of the Abyss, a balance that prevented it from dying but also waking up.

"I don't think he told you the details of the dispersal."

Trinidad certainly didn’t say.

It seems like he's planning to use me as a gun.

Mu Yang thought secretly.

This old Deng is a really good actor.

There probably never was any other candidate.

It is reasonable to let an outsider bear the crime of killing the mountain king with his own hands.

It all depends on how the follow-up negotiations go.

If this old man insists on taking the blame, then...

"By the way, I've already discussed this matter with the chief, and he wants to meet you."

Kinich interrupted Mu Yang's thoughts.

"Lead the way."

It seems that the leader hopes to keep the mountain king.

One is Lao Deng who is plotting against him, and the other is the leader of the tribe.

Mu Yang began to think.

See what conditions the leader can offer.

If he could find a way to save the Mountain King, he would probably get more than what the elders promised.

The other, the benefactor who saved the Mountain King and the sinner who killed the Mountain King.

Even if Paimon comes, she knows how to choose...
