Zhongli, known as the Geo Archon in the world of “Genshin Impact,” is a character of immense depth and gravitas, embodying the timeless wisdom and strength that come with centuries of existence.
As a figure shrouded in mystery and wisdom, Zhongli continues to captivate players with his intricate backstory and the serene yet powerful way he navigates the world of Teyvat.
His character is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Geo Archon and the rich tapestry of stories that make “Genshin Impact” a beloved game among fans.
Below are some of his best quotes and voice lines;
For those that live too long, the friends of days gone by and scenes from their adventures live on in their memories. As such I have no regrets in meeting you, friend. Should the day ever come that we are not together, you will continue to shine like gold in my memories.
his is my favorite quote from this list. While playing the game for the first time, i hadn’t realised the contributions of Zhongli to the overall popularity of the game. It was only when the quest was ending that I found out the reality of the Geo Archon, and that has to be one of my most emotional moments of the game.
Every journey has its final day. Don’t rush.
Morax has been known as a calm and calculated Archon among all seven of them. It’s expected to have a lot of motivational suggestions coming out of him. For someone who’s lived for a thousand years, patience is of the essence as he might have experienced several outcomes where staying calm and patient must’ve paid handsomely.
I will have order!
This is one of the most famous quotes within the Genshin Impact community. Zhongli is highly popular owing to his entire personality according to the lore, as well as the gameplay interference players are blessed with.
The archon Morax could never experience life as the true mortal Zhongli could, no matter how many times he descended to be with his people.
Zhongli served as the protector of Liyue for years, however, certain incidents altered his thoughts, and as a result, he decided to give up the life of Morax the Archon and decided to adopt himself among the common humans. As witnessed in the Liyue Archon quest, he seemed happy and peaceful with the new identity.
Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember… But where are those who share the memory?
Morax wasn’t always the same. There was a time when he enjoyed the company of several other subordinates and teammates. However, with time, everyone but Zhongli remains. Only their memories continue to shine bright in his eyes.
But if a person shows true strength of will at a desperate and fateful moment in their life, the gods will look upon them with favor.
This is a reminder for every Genshin player to keep the grinding going, as it becomes a reason for the universe to lay their attention over you. Zhongli understands the labor and determination one needs to pour in for the sake of achieving greatness.
I will treasure the memories that I made as Zhongli, traveling the streets of Liyue with you.
The traveler has been a great addition to the journey of Zhongli’s life. It was only because of the traveler that he was able to see his plan succeed. And Liyue’s Archon quest is one thing that the players will always treasure.
I hope today too shall be prosperous.
Zhongli appreciates every opportunity as a blessing by the heavens. For someone as wise and knowledgeable as him, expecting good outcomes of every incident is a given. Even though things might go south, Zhongli would strive to seek out some lessons from them.
When faced with circumstances beyond their control, humans often bemoan their lack of power. But if a person shows true strength of will at a desperate and fateful moment in their life, the gods will look upon them with favor.
The half of this quote has already been explained above in this article. In contrast, Zhongli is referring to the situation when humans tend to blame it all on themselves and their lack of strength. According to him, people must be forgiving and understanding enough to identify the actual moment of initiating actions without being tempted or misguided in the wrong direction.
Nothing can be accomplished without rules or standards. No matter if it is mortals or adepti, everyone has their place. This rule keeps Liyue in peace.
Morax is the God of contracts and is seen to have order and a code of conduct in almost every incident. He holds deep within himself the importance of being elegant, calm, and collected.
Despite the multitude of affairs she deals with in a day, Ningguang always continues to press on. A rare gem indeed. I’m reminded of the time that she used to walk barefoot from Yaoguang Shoal to the south wharf, trying to sell her wares as she went. Time is cruel to humans.
Ningguang isn’t just an ordinary leader. She has been through a lot while becoming a capable head that oversees the overall functioning of Liyue’s affairs. Although she has not been featured as a five-star character, her significance in the lore of Genshin’s impact is unquestionable.
If one must always consider Mora before acting, then in all things one is bound by Mora.
There’s a narrative spreading among the Genshin players that Zhongli has been ignorant about Mora as he holds the power to create them at any given moment, but according to this quote, he prefers to pay greater attention to the environment around himself instead of worrying or clinging to Mora.
All Mora is currency, but not all currency is Mora.
According to Zhongli, various forms of currency can be used to get things done in this world. He has been very specific about Mora and their uses, and one reason why he doesn’t like Hu Tao might be her overwhelming attachment to Mora.
Visions… are also a type of contract. You should know that all power comes at a price. For every bit of power you gain, so too do you gain more responsibility.
In the world of Genshin, visions are like a rare power that has been given only to a selected few. Every vision wielder is expected to play a certain role and make significant contributions. All of the playable characters in the game possess a vision.
Gold is Liyue’s treasure. It is the blood that runs through her heart. As for whether your own heart shines like gold — we will have to wait and see.
Zhongli has several voice lines that relate to gold and Mora. And most of them hold certain deeper meanings about life and living.
In the city of commerce, we do not merely exchange money or goods. We also exchange knowledge, memories, and foresight, as well as positions, roles, and lives.
Liyue has been a lively place just like Monstad and Natlan. And since it developed under the care and guidance of the God of contracts, it is expected to be advanced in terms of exchanges of every form.
“A fool sees the pointer and misses the moon.” If you point at the moon with your finger, a wise man knows that you are pointing at the moon, while a fool will only see the fingers.
It’s not very complicated to understand this quote. It’s an indication that the wise wouldn’t be left behind when it comes to uncovering hidden clues. Even a glimpse of the situation is enough for them to hold a grasp of the situation.
There was once a drink I used to enjoy with friends — long ago… Is it because the climate has changed? A shame I will never be able to relish in its smooth flavor again.
Zhongli has lost all of his friends over a long period. He once enjoyed the greater company of his friends which is now just a memory. Even though he has developed new methods of living, those memories will continue to shine in his eyes.
In Liyue, where the God of Contracts reigns, only contracts may not be betrayed. I for one have no issue with little maneuvers outside their remit.
The God of contracts won’t hold back when if the matter is about contracts.
So you must be careful to take the time to step back and reexamine yourself. If left unchecked, the wear and tear on your heart may go well past mending.
A person must always look back and perform a thorough examination of their current standing.
That is true, but there is no journey that does not end. No meetings without partings.
It reminds us of the traveller’s journey which had taken a new turn from Liyue. It was time for him to explore Inazuma and much more. But even his journey will meet a certain end…
These were some of the best Zhongli quotes and voice lines from the gameplay and the Archon quest. Although his appearance in the quest wasn’t for a long time, Zhongli plays a pivotal role in the overall lore of Genshin Impact. He is one of the lived people alive. Having experience of thousands of years has made him something worth admiring and paying attention to.
Morax no longer intends to shoulder every responsibility for the affairs and protection of Liyue. He has inherited a new identity and continues to go through life as a mere mortal. However, maybe in the future, we might catch a glimpse of Zhongli making an appearance in the Archon quest.
It’s been fun writing about him and I’d make sure to keep this article updated.
