Three Difficulties in Reviving Guizhong

Because the scene of treating Albedo's problems was probably too tragic, Bai Ye and Albedo avoided other people and came to the top of the Guyun Domain Cloud Pavilion.

Reaching the mountaintop and seeing no one around, Bai Ye asked Albedo:

"Albedo, are you ready?"

"Yes." Albedo nodded.

He took an Alchemy Potion out of his pocket, opened it, and poured it into his mouth.

"This is a potion that helps me maintain my strength. With this potion, I won't have any accidents due to insufficient strength."

"Uh-huh."

Seeing that Albedo was ready, Bai Ye extended his palm.

As he slowly extended his palm, he didn't forget to think to his teacher Hagintos:

"Teacher, you must take a good look at this later."

"Yes, I know," Hagintos said. "Don't worry, I will definitely observe carefully."

Bai Ye wanted to carefully record his encounter with the Abyss.

Seeing that the three of them were ready, Bai Ye took a deep breath. Then, he reached out and placed his hand on Albedo's body.

Albedo mobilized all the Abyss power within his body, allowing Bai Ye's Abyss power to come into contact with Albedo.

At this moment, the vortex-like demon beast Osial, inside the jade pendant, is also watching Bai Ye.

He also wanted to see the Bai Ye make contact with the Abyss.

"Ah!"

A piercing scream rang out.

Bai Ye felt as if her palm was pressing against a red-hot iron plate again, and the pain was real. Meanwhile, Albedo, who was being purified, was also enduring the same thing.

Upon seeing this, Hagintos, who was observing at the moment, instantly changed his smiling expression.

The boy, with his delicate, fair complexion, frowned in pain, his body trembling uncontrollably. Even so, Bai Ye persisted in pressing down on Albedo, allowing him to continue his contact with the power of the Abyss.

Hagintos felt a pang of heartache for himself.

"Xiao Bai Ye..."

She reached out to grab Bai Ye's other hand. However, since her body was incorporeal, her hand passed right through Bai Ye's delicate palm.

"Teacher, please observe quickly. This really hurts! It hurts so much..."

Bai Ye cried out in pain, but his hands remained firmly pressed against Albedo's body.

Seeing this, Hagintos still said with concern, "If it hurts too much, you might as well wait until next time."

"Won't it be the same next time?" Bai Ye said through gritted teeth, "Crying out in pain is my own physical feeling, but purifying the Abyss is more important. How could I let a small thing cause me to lose... Ouch, that really hurts!"

He pressed down even harder.

The pain reached its peak at that moment, and the black energy within Albedo's body instantly dissipated into the air and then vanished.

The pain in the Bai Ye also disappeared.

"Phew~"

Albedo felt incredibly relaxed, and his body went limp on the ground. Meanwhile, Bai Ye leaned helplessly against a rock.

"Does the power of the Abyss still exist?"

Bai Ye asked Albedo.

"It has completely disappeared."

Albedo felt his own body and answered Bai Ye's question.

With the power of the Abyss completely gone, Albedo no longer had to worry about whether his body would go out of control and cause damage to Mondstadt. He could now focus on his research in peace.

With his mind at ease, he found it easier to control his body. Freed from the constraints of the Abyss of Loss, Albedo felt as if his body was evolving.

Previously, his own evolution seemed to be at a bottleneck; alchemy and other skills were still only at the 'beginner' stage, and reaching the level of his creator, Reinhardt, seemed a distant dream. But now, having broken free from the shackles of the Abyss, Albedo has found another path to the Golden Age.

Albedo looked at Bai Ye with a respectful expression.

Now, besides his creator Reinhardt, the greatest debt of gratitude that Bai Ye owes him is to Bai Ye.

"Thanks."

Albedo said earnestly at Bai Ye.

"No, no, I'm still thinking about your alchemy. Um, while we're at it, Albedo, could you tell me how to do Human Transmutation? I want to create a body."

"You want to create human bodies? This is Khaenri'ah technology," Albedo asked Bai Ye.

"No problem, it's just Khaenri'ah technology. Others might be misunderstood if they learn it, but what's wrong with me learning it?" Bai Ye indifferently.

"That's true," Albedo nodded.

Anyone can pledge allegiance to the Abyss, even the Seven Archons, but Bai Ye is the only one who would never pledge allegiance to the Abyss.

"I want to be transformed into a human body..."

Albedo began to tell Bai Ye about the Art of Black Soil from Khaenri'ah.

How to create a human body, how to cultivate life...

Albedo told Bai Ye all of this.

Bai Ye listened silently and, together with his teacher Hagintos, wrote down what he had heard.

Albedo won't stay in Liyue for long; most of the experiments will have to be conducted by Bai Ye himself.

As for Osial within the jade pendant, He began by purifying the Abyss during the Bai Ye as a form of observation, but He paid no attention to the Art of Black Soil mentioned later.

What does this have to do with me? Time to sleep, time to sleep. All I need to do is protect that guy Bai Ye, from harm. At the same time, I also sensed that there was another Gods within Bai Ye's body.

"Having two Gods on one's body, this is something that only Bai Ye could probably do."

Osial had a feeling that there were definitely more than just Him and that Gods within Bai Ye. There might be even more Gods residing within Bai Ye's body in the future.

Albedo and Bai Ye spent the entire night discussing the Art of Black Soil and its accompanying alchemy. Although Bai Ye didn't fully understand it, she ensured that her teacher memorized everything.

The two returned to the beach.

Seeing the state of Bai Ye and Albedo, everyone was shocked. Although they knew that Bai Ye was clearing away the power of the Abyss for Albedo, they still felt very sorry for Bai Ye.

Before Bai Ye could react, his body suddenly felt lighter. Then, he realized that he was being carried by Shenhe.

Hu Tao lagged behind by a step and could only stop, glaring fiercely at Shenhe. Her speed was definitely no worse than Shenhe's, but Shenhe's terrifying, beast-like instincts were something Hu Tao couldn't match. Upon seeing Bai Ye, her body probably reacted before her mind even had a chance to process it.

Standing behind Shenhe, Cloud Retainer wore a satisfied smile.

"Little Bai Ye, how are you feeling?"

Ganyu jogged over and immediately began checking on Bai Ye.

Xiao Cloud Retainer together surrounded Bai Ye.

"I don't have any..."

At that moment, Bai Ye noticed that Ganyu was reaching out her hand to her, and immediately said, "Yi."

Seeing this action of Bai Ye, Ganyu, Shenhe, Hu Tao immediately paused for a beat, Cloud Retainer also paused for half a beat.

The boy, with his red lips and bright red teeth, had disheveled hair and a flushed face as he made a gesture of resistance.

This smells absolutely amazing.

Then,

Shenhe and the others carefully observed Bai Ye's condition.

Returning the goods is no problem.

Bai Ye said weakly to Shenhe:

"Um, now that the checkup is done, can I go downstairs?"

"That's right, that's right," Hu Tao agreed.

In this vulnerable moment, shouldn't you, as my best friend, hold me?

After all that fuss, Bai Ye finally got down and started walking on her own.

At this moment, the ship arrived at Guyun Domain.

Yesterday, because they were dealing with the situation with Osial, after the ship brought them here, Bai Ye told the ship to go back first and come back to pick them up today.

So, the group boarded the ship and prepared to return to Liyue Harbor.

Sitting in the cabin, Bai Ye began to ponder matters related to alchemy.

He asked Hagintos:

"Teacher, what do you think of the Art of Black Soil?"

"Hmm... it is indeed a very advanced alchemical technique. The alchemy of creating life matter is something I had never thought of before."

Hagintos answered the question from the Bai Ye.

"However, this is very helpful for my body's revival."

"Yes."

Bai Ye wholeheartedly agreed with this point.

"We can rely on the Art of Black Soil to create a body material that is strong and perfect enough."

There are three difficulties in resurrecting Hagintos' body.

First, regarding the composition of her body. The body of Gods god is vastly different from that of an ordinary human. Bai Ye cannot simply use some corpse or something to resurrect his teacher by possessing it. That body would absolutely not be able to withstand his teacher's soul, and ultimately it wouldn't last long.

Does that mean we have to keep replacing it? Putting aside whether that's morally wrong or not, and even if our teacher were willing, the constant Erosion would be unbearable.

The current alchemy of Albedo gave Bai Ye an idea.

Using alchemy, they created the material for the body of the Gods god.

Furthermore, the material created was far more powerful than the physical strength of Hagintos before.

Alchemy was the first difficult problem that Bai Ye solved.

From the current perspective, although it is somewhat difficult, it is a very competent solution.

The second difficulty in resurrecting the demon lies in the connection and fusion of the body. It is one thing for the body to bear the power of the Gods, but it is another thing to make the body able to exert the power of the Gods god.

However, alchemy does not offer a complete solution to this problem. The Art of Black Soil and alchemy are both developed from scratch, step by step, rather than directly reaching the level of Gods.

Even though the Dragon Durin and Albedo are no weaker than some Gods, their inherent power is still different. Alchemy cannot offer Bai Ye much help in unleashing that level of power.

Fortunately, there is one person in the Bai Ye Domain whose creation can exert power equivalent to that of Gods.

Raiden Ei.

The Raiden Shogun she created undoubtedly possessed strength on par with her own. And that flawed, scattered Scaramouche was also a force to be reckoned with.

As for the final difficulty, it is the fusion of the soul into the body. However, Bai Ye has not yet solved the previous two problems, so he has not considered this last point.

Hagintos to Bai Ye Yeyu, "Little Bai Ye, we're going to split up now. I'll start researching alchemy, and you should prepare the materials for alchemy. When the time is right, we'll begin some alchemical work."

"Uh-huh."

Bai Ye nodded.

Preparing the materials wasn't too difficult.

If you really don't want to, go directly to Master Zhongli for help.

The group returned to Liyue Harbor, where Bai Ye found Keqing and Ningguang waiting for them.

"Snort!"

Cloud Retainer was still not very satisfied with the Liyue Qixing, and upon seeing them, he immediately hid in the cabin. Bai Ye and the others disembarked and came to their side.

"What's wrong? What's the matter?"

Bai Ye asked Ningguang Keqing.

"I say, I should be the one asking you about this." Ningguang looked at Bai Ye with a smile and said, "Yesterday, the Liyue envoy and the Seven Stars secretary went to Guyun Domain. After that, Guyun Domain was shrouded in darkness, and I don't know what happened inside."

"Well, just taking care of one Gods."

Bai Ye said indifferently.

From within the jade pendant, Osial shouted in a voice only he could hear, "What do you mean, 'resolved'? You all took far too much advantage. In the end, if Morax hadn't intervened, we would have at most perished together."

"Gods? Not Archon Residue?"

Hearing Bai Ye say this, Ningguang was somewhat surprised.

"Are you bragging?"

Keqing was even more incredulous.

Then, she saw that Bi Ganyu wanted to ask about the truth of the matter.

"Bai Ye said there's nothing wrong!"

Ganyu immediately said.

Does my junior brother Nanyu lie?

Seeing everyone's expressions, Keqing finally believed that they had indeed defeated a Gods.

Keqing and Ningguang exchanged a glance, both feeling Bai Ye's terrifying rate of progress.

So, what exactly was their adventure like?

Both of them were eager to go and explore together.

At the same time,

Inazuma City Tenshukaku.

Raiden Shogun is meditating with his eyes closed.

At this moment, Tenshukaku came to report.

"The Shogun, the three heads of the Feng family have come to see you at the same time."

"Um?"

Raiden Shogun opened his eyes slightly, his expression indifferent.

What are the three heads of the Feng family doing here?

"Let them in."

"Yes."

Soon, Kujou Takamasa, Hiiragi Shinsuke, and Kamisato Ayato walked out of the Tenshukaku together.

Last night, Kanjou Commission and Tenryou Commission Ying tried to make the 'rumor' disappear, but they found that they couldn't do it at all, and it was even getting worse.

Then, they discovered that Kamisato Ayato was preparing to go find Raiden Shogun.

They wanted to stop it, but found there was no reason to do so.

So they decided to come with Kamisato Ayato to report this matter to Raiden Shogun.
