Morphology

uninfluenced = influenced (transparent) = un + influence + ed

The negative prefix 'un-' is directly attached to the past-participle adjective 'influenced' to yield 'not influenced', a straightforward negation.

Etymology

Uninfluenced begins with un- meaning 'not' and the rest, influence, comes from a root meaning 'to flow in', like fluid or flow. So to be uninfluenced is to have nothing 'flowing in' to change your ideas or choices, which is why it means 'not affected' by outside forces.
