Genshin Impact: Transmigrated as Liyue’s Yin-Yang Archon

Chapter 1: Rebirth in Teyvat: Challenging Morax from the Start



Somewhere in the mountains of Teyvat, a cluster of pure energy floated in the air, constantly shifting between white and black. Even the sky mirrored its transformation, alternating between light and dark. Golden lotuses emerged throughout the land, and a sacred aura filled the surroundings as if celebrating the birth of something extraordinary.

"No way... I've transmigrated?! Wasn't I just playing Genshin Impact? And why did I turn into a ball of gas? What's the use of this? None of the other transmigrators have suffered as much as me!"

Qiu Bai suddenly recalled the last thing he did before losing consciousness—especially the words he had shouted.

"I'd give up fifty years of my lifespan for Zhongli."

Then came the moment when he pulled six five-star characters in a single ten-pull. Hiss— Wait... so I really did burn through my lifespan? And now I've transmigrated?

Damn, those six five-stars cost me at least 300 years of life.

At this thought, Qiu Bai's nonexistent mouth twitched.

"Ding-dong! The Strongest Archon System requests to bind with the host!"

"Would the host like to bind with the system?"

"Huh? Teyvat? I've really ended up in Genshin Impact?! And this 'Strongest Archon System'… does that mean I'm an Archon now?"

Something didn't add up. Qiu Bai frowned. What kind of Archon is just a ball of gas?!

"Well, since I can't move anyway, having a system to keep me company doesn't sound too bad. Genshin Impact, huh? Hehehe, wives, here I come!"

If he had a mouth, he'd probably be drooling by now.

"Bind!"

"Binding successful. Would you like to open the host interface?"

"Open!"

Host: Qiu Bai

Status: Formed from the Yin and Yang energies of the world; a body of primordial creation.

Identity: Archon Meleaus (Progress: 94%, estimated to be born in 300 years).

Seeing his status, Qiu Bai couldn't hold back anymore.

"So it really is 300 years of lifespan… I have to endure this for 300 years?!"

He wanted to cry, but as a formless entity, he didn't even have tears to shed.

"Ding-dong! Host has received a Newcomer Gift Pack. Would you like to claim it?"

Qiu Bai's heart leaped with excitement.

"A Newcomer Gift Pack?! Claim it!"

"Congratulations! You have received a strand of Creation Energy. Using it will allow you to be born ahead of schedule!"

"System, you're my savior! You can grant my wishes just like that?! If you were a girl, I'd marry you on the spot!"

Qiu Bai was so moved he almost cried.

System: …

"Use the Creation Energy!"

A wave of warmth surged through him, as if something was merging into his being. His form expanded, growing larger and hotter. The heat intensified, like flames burning from within.

"Why is it so hot? Kamisato… Yae… Ei… Jean… Ningguang… Sara… Eula… Qi—"

Before he could finish his thoughts, his consciousness faded into deep sleep.

...

Outside, the Yin and Yang energies surged violently, purple light filling the heavens. Golden lotuses and violet qi continuously poured into the swirling forces, forming an intricate Eight Trigrams pattern. The Yin and Yang symbols flickered wildly, the sky alternating between darkness and light. Thunder rumbled, lightning flashed, and finally, a humanoid figure emerged. Only then did the celestial phenomenon begin to subside.

Upon closer inspection, the figure appeared to be around eighteen or nineteen years old. His long black hair cascaded down onto his pristine, ink-white robes. His face was smooth and flawless, exuding a warm, jade-like radiance. His light blue eyes shimmered with elegance and tranquility, resembling a midnight sky full of distant stars. He stood at approximately 1.85 meters tall.

At his waist hung a Taiji Diagram, the size of a Vision, glowing brilliantly.

...

Qiu Bai felt refreshed and clear-headed. The sensation of the grass beneath him, the gentle breeze against his skin—he could perceive everything with perfect clarity.

Opening his eyes, he took in the vast landscape of mountains, rivers, and lush vegetation. The scenery made him feel completely at ease.

"Having eyes again feels amazing… I think I finally understand how Azhdaha felt."

Joy spread across Qiu Bai's face.

"System, open my status panel!"

Host: Qiu Bai

Age: 4000 years

Identity: Archon Meleaus (Formed from Yin and Yang energies)

Gender: Male

Divine Abilities: Spatial Teleportation, Aerial Movement, Yin-Yang Incarnation.

Archon Authority:

Yang Power: Purification, Healing, Restoration of Life.Yin Power: Destruction, Annihilation, Curses.

Qiu Bai could feel the immense power coursing through him. He clenched his fist and smirked. Feels like I could obliterate a mountain with a single punch.

"So this is the power of an Archon… It's incredible. But the Yin-Yang Incarnation… that part is a bit tricky."

He closed his eyes in contemplation. Soon, Yin and Yang energies separated from his body, forming two identical clones of himself.

The one clad in black was formed from Yin energy, with the Yin emblem hanging from his waist. The one in white, naturally, embodied Yang, with the corresponding symbol on his belt. However, their expressions differed—the black-robed Qiu Bai bore a cold, piercing gaze, while the white-robed Qiu Bai's eyes were gentle and kind. (These incarnations will only manifest during battles.)

"Their strength is about half of my main body's… Not bad." Qiu Bai stroked his chin, grinning. "Damn, I really am handsome. I wonder how many girls are going to fall for me."

Satisfied with his experiment, he dismissed the incarnations, reverting them into pure energy and absorbing them back into his body. Then, he crouched down to test the power of Yang.

"If all living beings are included… then plants count too, right?"

He unleashed a flame, burning a patch of grass to ashes. Then, channeling Yang energy, he watched as pure white light seeped into the charred ground. The ashes seemed to rewind through time, restoring the grass to its previous vibrant state.

"So that's how it works. Right now, if I were to restore a lifeform at my level, I'd have to hibernate for several hundred years afterward."

Qiu Bai stood up and muttered to himself, "But where exactly am I?"

He ascended into the sky, scanning the terrain below.

In the distance, a raging storm raged on. Torrential rain poured down, flooding the land. Houses and trees were being swept away by the violent currents. A massive beast, resembling both a qilin and a ram, carried people on its back, accompanied by two enormous cranes.

Qiu Bai's pupils contracted. Isn't this the Homecoming plot? The Adepti escorting people back to Liyue Harbor… This is Liyue from a thousand years ago!

"This old… friend, why have I never seen you before?"

A deep and steady voice suddenly echoed from behind him.

"When?!"

Qiu Bai spun around and instinctively retreated.

I didn't even sense him! When did he get so close to me?

When he finally laid eyes on the speaker, he froze.

The man before him exuded an aura of divinity—calm, majestic, yet approachable. His presence was commanding, and his attire was nothing short of impeccable, enhancing his already dignified appearance.

There was no mistaking it.

The one standing in the sky alongside Qiu Bai was none other than Morax, the God of Geo and one of the Seven Archons.

"My friend, there's no need to be alarmed. I am merely curious," Morax said, his golden eyes studying Qiu Bai with interest. "You and I are not enemies."

Qiu Bai's mind went blank.

"Zhongli?!"

His heart ached with unspeakable sorrow. The very reason I died pulling for him...

Morax noticed Qiu Bai's strange expression and raised an eyebrow.

"My friend, I am Morax."

"I can sense that the power within you is unusually pure… You do not seem to be an Archon from the time of the Archon War." Morax stroked his chin thoughtfully.

Qiu Bai quickly composed himself. There was no room for jokes here—after all, the man before him was none other than the strongest Archon of the Seven.

"I am a newly born Archon, formed from the Yin and Yang energies of heaven and earth. I have been nurtured for millennia before finally emerging into the world."

Morax's gaze remained steady as he listened.

At that moment, a bold idea crossed Qiu Bai's mind.

I should test my strength against him.

Having just been born, he had no clear grasp of his own abilities. And who better to gauge his power than the legendary God of Geo himself?

He took a deep breath and spoke with measured calm.

"My friend, I wish to test my divine power. I have only just emerged and am uncertain of my own strength. Would you be willing to spar with me?"

On the surface, Qiu Bai appeared composed, but inside, he was panicking.

This is Morax… If he accidentally kills me, won't my rebirth be for nothing?!

Morax studied him for a moment before chuckling lightly.

"The power of an Archon is formidable. Even the weakest of us can reshape the land itself."

His golden eyes gleamed with amusement.

"But… a sparring match could help you familiarize yourself with your abilities. I see no harm in it."

Qiu Bai swallowed hard.

It was time to face the strongest Archon head-on.
