At this moment, Zhongli's expression changed atop the imperial tomb.

"Your the Geo Archon, what's wrong?"

Seeing Zhongli's behavior, Moon Carver hurriedly asked Zhongli a question.

"No, I just experienced a strange feeling."

Zhongli waved his hand.

He felt no pain, nor did he lose any power; he could still easily wield his abilities.

However, he could sense that when Bai Ye grasped his molted scales, he felt a sense of power being shared with others.

Simply put, it's like having a well in your house, and you draw water from it whenever you want to use it. But because the well is in your house, only you can draw water from it.

On this day, some people got a new key to their house, had it copied, opened their door, went to the well, and filled a pot with water.

For me personally, it wouldn't affect my use of the product, but Zhongli would absolutely not allow anyone else to take things from my own home.

As for Bai Ye, he would have to make a key for him.

After using Morax's power once, Bai Ye's extended mechanical arm turned to dust and became unusable.

But looking at the stone pillar in front of him, Bai Ye felt incredibly excited.

Morax, one of the Seven Executioners of Dust.

I now have the same powers as him.

One of the powers of the Seven Dust Executioners.

It surpasses all other Gods by a significant margin.

It's not simply about manipulating the Geo element; if it were, wouldn't his Gods power be an amplified Geo element Genshin Eye?

The creation of Mora, the signing of the contract, the eyes of the Dragon King Azhdaha, etc.

These cannot be explained by Geo element alone.

Now that Bai Ye has tried using Zhongli's powers, he understands things a little better.

[Structure]

After some thought, Bai Ye decided that this word was the most appropriate to describe it.

The creation of Mora, the creation of the contract, even the eyes of the Dragon King Azhdaha in this way.

The Geo element are used for structural analysis.

After obtaining Zhongli's power, Bai Ye instantly constructed a stone pillar.

This is the simplest operation, and it didn't consume much of Bai Ye's energy.

As for the others, those will take longer and require Bai Ye to have more knowledge and experience. Only then can he construct the items he desires.

Bai Ye still has a lot to do if she wants to make the best use of Zhongli's power.

"But even so, it's enough to make people happy."

Bai Ye recorded this rebellious spirit in the Serenitea Pot, which gave him even more power.

"Now that I think about it, I already have the powers of four Gods."

One represents power, one manufactures salt, one constructs all things, and one manipulates fate.

"Oh, right, there's also the power to deprive the Seven Senses."

Bai Ye recalled the Archon Residue that had stripped him of his Seven Senses. If he could obtain that Gods's power again, he could control the powers of five Gods.

"Can these five be used to construct a prototype of a mecha?"

Bai Ye still couldn't forget his dream of building a Gundam.

Use [Construction] to fuse with one, use [Life] to provide power, use [Seven Senses Deprivation] to influence others, and use [Power] as the power of melee combat.

As for salt production, it is a way of influencing the surrounding environment.

If I were to acquire all the powers of the Gods in the future and then construct a giant Gundam, then I could openly and honestly confront Zhongli.

—Morax, I have ascended to godhood.

After collecting all of these, Bai Ye turned to look at Morax's remains, which were still lying in bed.

He bowed to him.

Then, he sat down in front of the coffin and began preparing to guard it until dawn.

This is what I should do.

Zhongli was on the imperial tomb at that moment, saw Bai Ye like this and nodded slightly.

"Let's go back."

He addressed the assembled Adepti.

Cloud Retainer and the others naturally agreed, so they turned around and followed Zhongli away.

Bai Ye remained alone in the imperial tomb to keep watch at night.

Bai Ye guarded the imperial tomb for an entire night, only leaving the next morning to check the time.

Standing at the foot of Mt. Tianheng, Bai Ye began to ponder what to do next.

Just then, his teacher Hagintos, finally spoke.

"Bai Ye, I haven't seen you for a day, and you've gained so many new abilities. Hmm, you truly are worthy of being my disciple."

Her tone was very proud.

I'm proud of her.

Bai Ye thought for a moment and then offered no explanation.

After a moment's thought, Bai Ye said to Hagintos, "Teacher, I'm planning to start constructing the mechanism that combines the powers of this Gods. I wonder what your thoughts are?"

After speaking with Cloud Retainer, Bai Ye realized that his Art of Automata were still somewhat lacking. These shortcomings were not in his theoretical knowledge of Art of Automata, but rather in his practical experience.

"I do have an idea." Hagintos for a moment and said to Bai Ye, "If you want to piece these Gods powers together, you must first master these Gods powers."

"Teacher, what do you want?"

"Aren't there ready-made punching bags north of Liyue Harbor? Come on, you don't need to show any mercy to that woman."

Hagintos said with a smile.

"That's true!"

The butterfly of fire pierced through the ice, and the spear of fire shattered the hard barrier.

Hu Tao appeared behind Rosalyn could only dodge to the side.

Rosalyn then used her whip to wrap around Hu Tao's spear, binding it tightly.

Seeing that Rosalyn had taken the spear from her hand, Hu Tao immediately raised her hand to signal a halt to the fight.

When Rosalyn saw her make that gesture, she also put down the whip.

"Your strength has improved; now I can move around quite a bit," Rosalyn said breathlessly. However, she praised Hu Tao's progress.

"Hehe, isn't this just about how fast you can progress in cultivating Adeptal Art?"

Hu Tao said with a smile.

At that moment, he took out a pastry from behind his back and handed it to Rosalyn.

"This is something I brought for you, a special dish made by Xiangling," Hu Tao introduced to Rosalyn.

"Um."

Rosalyn took the pastries from her hands.

She still preferred to come over with Hu Tao, and every time she came, she would bring herself some snacks or other food.

Compared to those two, Bai Ye and Morax, who came here and made him work for free, they were far superior.

We can't do things for free.

Holding a snack, Rosalyn ate it while asking Hu Tao, "By the way, how are things going between you and your friend?"

Rosalyn used a strong, sarcastic tone when referring to the word 'friend'.

Hearing Rosalyn's teasing, Hu Tao thought for a moment, then immediately looked at Rosalyn.

"Come on, can you help me with some targeted training later?"

"Specialized training? Do you think I'm the kind of sparring partner who just listens to whatever I say?" Rosalyn said with great dissatisfaction after hearing Hu Tao's words.

After a long pause, she finally said to Hu Tao, "Tell me, what kind of specialized training do you want to do?"

"Hmph, I have an opponent I want to defeat."

Hu Tao said through gritted teeth.

To deal with Shenhe, she needs to find an outside help to increase her strength.

"An opponent!? Could it be a love rival?"

When Rosalyn saw Hu Tao's expression, she still didn't understand what she meant.

"That guy Bai Ye..."

She was very angry.

With Hu Tao already in such a state, it's really going too far for him to come here and provoke others.

Rosalyn is a staunch believer in pure love, and she cannot tolerate anyone messing around.

"Rosalyn, damn it, what kind of tone is that?"

Upon hearing Rosalyn say that, Hu Tao immediately changed her tone.

Damn, you have to protect your own friends.

"Hmph, you're still speaking up for him? What if he showed up in front of me..."

Rosalyn had only spoken half a sentence Bai Ye's voice appeared.

"What's wrong?"

"Of course..." Rosalyn turned her head to look down and met Bai Ye's gaze.

His tone paused abruptly.

He quickly looked up and vigorously rubbed his forehead.

Then, she said to Bai Ye in an annoyed tone, "Hmph, you know what you've done."

"Ah?"

Bai Ye was still puzzled.

At this moment, Hu Tao, somewhat curious, came to Bai Ye's side.

"Did you come out of the imperial tomb?" Hu Tao asked Bai Ye.

"Yes."

Bai Ye nodded.

"Then just come over here. Aren't you being a little too diligent?" Hu Tao pulled Bai Ye towards the stone table.

"Then why don't you rest? If something happens to your health, I don't want you to be in trouble. As an employee, I naturally care about you."

He looked very serious.

However, Bai Ye stopped Hu Tao from making a move.

"Hu Tao, Hu Tao, I just got some new things, so I'm here to try them out."

"Hmm? Something new?"

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, Hu Tao involuntarily loosened her grip on the cloth.

What is it?

"You'll see in a moment."

Bai Ye then stood before Rosalyn.

"La Signora. Rosalyn, please enlighten me."

"Hmph, even if they've acquired something new, it's nothing special."

Rosalyn snorted coldly.

However, she still had some worries in her heart.

Without unlocking the third form, his strength was roughly on par with that of the previous Bai Ye. If Bai Ye gained significantly more power this time, he would be in a very difficult situation.

Even if you lose in terms of people, you absolutely cannot lose in terms of battle.

Rosalyn would never utter the word "admit defeat."

"Good."

Bai Ye saw Rosalyn say this, he nodded slightly.

Then,

A fierce wind arose around him, and wings reappeared behind him as he flew into the air.

"Depend on!"

Rosalyn couldn't help but swear when she saw Bai Ye's current predicament.

How could my strength increase so much?

Just as she was thinking this, a Bai Ye of wind blew past Rosalyn.

The fierce winds forced Rosalyn back several steps in an instant.

Hu Tao was looking at Rosalyn's chest.

A strong wind blew, and it trembled...

Her expression was complicated.

Then he turned to look at Bai Ye, who was flying in mid-air, his eyes filled with even more excitement.

He's really strong and cool.

Hu Tao's gaze remained fixed on Bai Ye's side, never leaving him.

Seeing Bai Ye suddenly unleash a tremendous burst of spiritual power, Rosalyn quickly began to condense ice beneath her feet.

You must keep yourself strong.

Seeing Rosalyn fix her body in place, Bai Ye nodded in satisfaction.

Now you can really try out your own powers.

Bai Ye took out the Serenitea Pot and produced the Archon Residue.

First, it was Emet's heart.

This life form is the foundation upon which one can freely use the powers of other Gods.

Otherwise, I would have no choice but to use a mechanism that changes every time.

"What's this!?"

Rosalyn sensed the vigorous life force within the heart and a look of doubt appeared on her face.

At this moment, Bai Ye's movements had not changed.

Rosalyn then saw Bai Ye pull out a broken sword.

"This is?"

Rosalyn watched Bai Ye wield his sword and immediately wrapped herself in ice.

But the icy chill didn't last more than a few seconds before Rosalyn, inside, suddenly tasted a salty flavor in her mouth.

With a slight movement, the ice around Rosalyn turned into sand-like particles.

She recognizes this.

It's salt.

"Isn't this the power of the Gods Huyrria?"

She looked at Bai Ye and exclaimed in surprise and doubt.

She has lived for five hundred years, so she has a lot of experience.

Bai Ye continued her own work.

After using salt to break Rosalyn's shield, he put away Huyrria's broken sword.

He changed into Zhongli's Remnant Scales once again.

"This pressure is immense!"

Even with Emet's heart present, Bai Ye felt immense pressure as he unleashed Zhongli's power.

I also need to make myself stronger.

Bai Ye quickly constructed his own element.

A cyan gale instantly arrived in front of Rosalyn, immediately constructing a wind prison that firmly trapped Rosalyn.

The wind enveloped her completely, leaving her no room to move.

"This structure..."

Rosalyn looked at the structure and felt completely horrified.

This is not exactly the same structure as the stone pillar that trapped it; it's just that the rock element has been changed to wind element.

"Um."

Bai Ye nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this.

In the current situation, Rosalyn poses no danger to me since the first stage hasn't started.

Seeing that Rosalyn was immobilized, Bai Ye switched to the Bifron Power Template again.

He attacked Rosalyn...

While Bai Ye was launching a brutal attack on Rosalyn, two guests arrived at the north side of Liyue Harbor.

"Albedo, why is there a pillar on this side of the road in Liyue Harbor? What's it for?"

Klee approached the pillar, observing it while asking Albedo behind her a question.

"I don't know either."

As an alchemist, Albedo also came to the stone pillar out of curiosity.

He was also very curious about this structure.

Before he could even begin to study it, the stone pillar emitted Adeptal Art energy.

Then,

Bai Ye and Hu Tao appeared in front of him.

Wow, is this some kind of magic trick where someone disappears into thin air?

"Klee exclaimed in surprise."
