Bai Ye Absorbs the Dendro Dragon's Power
What does Zhongli represent?
Bai Ye felt relieved instantly.
He didn't struggle and simply nestled comfortably in Shenhe's arms.
Yes, it feels very comfortable, much better than being held by the teacher or Hu Tao.
Geo element shields appeared around them, blocking all of Apep's attacks. At the same time, falling meteorites completely immobilized Apep's body.
Then, Zhongli and Cloud Retainer appeared beside Bai Ye and Shenhe.
"Was it this grass dragon that hurt you?"
Cloud Retainer glared angrily at Apep, who had already been stoned, wishing he could use his mechanisms to beat it a few times.
"Oh, our Guest Official has actually come."
Seeing Zhongli appear, Hu Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who is he? He seems even more powerful than Raiden Shogun?"
Upon seeing this, Dehya couldn't help but ask Xiangling, who was standing next to her.
"Mr. Zhongli is the Rex Lapis."
"The Rock King... wait, isn't that the Geo Archon?"
At first, Dehya didn't recognize the name Rex Lapis, but she soon realized who Zhongli was.
Meanwhile, Zhongli did it casually, and at this moment, Apep also broke free from these restraints.
It first glanced at Raiden Ei, then at Zhongli, its anger intensifying, accompanied by a deep sense of despair. In terms of strength, Apep was confident he could defeat Raiden Ei in his prime, but against Zhongli, the outcome was uncertain.
Not to mention that he is now completely crippled, he is probably no match for him.
"But even so, I will try my best to inflict enough damage on you."
Apep thought to himself.
He prepared to mobilize the power within his body once again.
Since death is inevitable anyway, I might as well see if my death can cause any harm to those around me.
There are only two of them; even if I don't kill them, I can still seriously injure them...
Just as Apep was pondering this, a wind began to blow in the silent desert.
A bard in green clothes and a hat arrived here, weary from his journey, carrying a bag of desert wine.
"I'm here, I'm here. I'm not late, am I? I just passed by a tribe, and their drinks were pretty good."
Venti said with a smile.
Seeing this, Guizhong asked curiously, "Wait, you actually have money on you. Can you trade with those tribes?"
"No!" Venti said matter-of-factly, "I just said that Bai Ye, the reincarnation of the Scarlet King, is my best friend, and he will pay me the money."
"What a drunkard," Guizhong muttered.
"In that case, Bai Ye promised to treat you to drinks earlier, so let's call it even."
Are you even human?
"I am Gods, so naturally I am not human."
Venti moved to the other side of Apep.
Although he was jogging, he was actually using Anemo Element around him to accelerate.
"Hey, grandpa, little homebody, you've come!"
Venti greeted him with a smile.
Zhongli smiled without saying a word.
Raiden Ei glanced at Venti with a cold look.
Venti immediately raised her hands in surrender.
Apep looked at the three gods, his expression gradually turning to despair.
With three gods here, even if they self-destruct, they wouldn't be able to cause enough damage.
"Why are there three of you?"
He spoke to the three gods.
"Not three."
Venti gently shook her finger.
Apep sensed something and turned to look behind it. At that moment Dendro element bloomed behind it, and the King Deshret stood behind it.
Apep was almost ready to unleash a torrent of profanities.
What have I done to deserve this?
Four of the Seven Archons appeared and surrounded me.
This...
It chuckled to itself, and power began to gather throughout its entire body.
At least give yourself a dignified departure.
Its power exploded, but at that moment Zhongli raised his palm and spat out a burst of rock element from his palm to block Apep.
This interrupted its self-destruction process once again.
"Morax, what are you going to do?"
Apep shouted in a mixture of surprise and anger.
"Naturally, I borrowed the power of your body."
Zhongli said with a smile.
He looked at Bai Ye, who was being held tightly in Shenhe's arms. Cloud Retainer had a gratified smile on his face.
Zhongli Li said, "Bai Ye, come, absorb its energy into your body."
"I?"
Bai Ye pointed to himself, then to Apep.
Zhongli nodded. "Yes, as a Dragon King, its body contains the purest elemental energy. Back then, the Seven Archons only took the authority of the Seven Dragon Kings, without absorbing their elements. These elements are just what you need."
The Gods's authority granted Bai Ye various abilities, but the increase in his basic elemental power was not significant. If Bai Ye were simply staying in Teyvat as a god, that would be sufficient, but for the future fight against the Abyss, Bai Ye would still be lacking.
"Is it really possible?"
Bai Ye looked at Apep, feeling somewhat hesitant.
"Why not?"
The King Deshret smiled and said.
At the same time, she gave Bai Ye a mysterious smile.
"Maybe all these Dendro element will help you grow taller."
Upon hearing what the King Deshret said, Bai Ye instantly perked up.
Shenhe felt that he couldn't hold onto Bai Ye, and let Bai Ye fly directly to Zhongli's side.
"Grandpa, what do you suggest we do?"
Bai Ye said excitedly.
Even the way he looked at Apep was somewhat ferocious, as if he was considering whether to dislocate Apep's tendons or bones.
"This is a set of techniques. You circulate the techniques, and I will guide the energy of Apep."
Zhongli took out a simple set of techniques and handed it to Bai Ye.
"Yes, thank you for your trouble, sir."
"It's alright," Zhongli waved his hand casually. However, after hesitating for a moment, he still spoke to Bai Ye in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Um, Hu Tao is still young, you guys..."
Seeing Bai Ye's guilty expression, Zhongli immediately guessed what had happened between them.
"It's not the right time to have children yet."
He began to speak.
"Um."
Bai Ye nodded even more guiltily.
Looking at Zhongli, Bai Ye estimated that he would be under Zhongli's pressure for the rest of his life.
"Alright, let's look at the current situation. This method of transmission was told to me by someone from Celestia. Before, your strength wasn't enough to withstand the Dragon King's energy. Now, the power in your body is sufficient to withstand these elemental forces."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Ye nodded seriously, and Zhongli also began to operate.
This matter requires far more effort from him than Bai Ye's, and he must be fully focused and not let his guard down in the slightest.
"I will absolutely not become nourishment for people who Heavenly Principles."
Apep was naturally unwilling to do this and struggled to resist.
Then,
Venti, Raiden Ei, the King Deshret, and the three gods worked together to suppress Apep.
With the three gods attacking together, what resistance could Apep possibly offer?
He could only let the elemental power within his body flow out and pour into Bai Ye's body.
The purest essence entered Bai Ye's body, and Bai Ye immediately felt that every part of his body was being replenished with essence.
Power and essence continued to surge within Bai Ye's own body.
Herbal essence, wind essence, and other forces intertwine within the body.
It seems like it's about to burst open, almost uncontrollably.
Bai Ye felt excited.
Is it that there are too few cells left, so it starts to expand and divide?
So,
My body is growing taller.
Just as Bai Ye was looking forward to it, Bai Ye suddenly noticed that the elements began to compress themselves.
No, what are you doing?!
Bai Ye roared in his heart.
How can you people with such energy be even more cowardly than humans?!
Although Bai Ye was anxious, the elemental power began to condense uncontrollably.
This kind of concentration actually makes it very convenient to unleash Bai Ye's power, allowing Bai Ye to exert even greater power.
It's just not good for people with high height.
As the element entered, the emerald light of the elemental power began to appear on Bai Ye's body.
At that moment, Hachigami -Divine Child and Lady Guuji also walked over and looked up to see Bai Ye in mid-air.
Lady Guuji stroked his chin and looked at the Bai Ye that was receiving energy in the sky.
"At a time like this, shouldn't we have a scene where the clothes rip off?"
As she spoke, she immediately heard the sound of clothes tearing in mid-air.
Lady Guuji looked surprised.
"I didn't know I had this ability."
She muttered to herself.
After the thud
Apart from the shy Layla and the Faruzan, everyone else looked at Bai Ye with either curiosity or excitement.
She examined the Lady Guuji with particular care.
Last time, when she sculpted her body, Bai Ye saw her completely Bai Ye. Now, she's the one who gets to see him.
"It's alright, I didn't expect it to be so big, but its white color is quite cute."
Lady Guuji made this assessment of Yu.
The Eight Divine Child nodded with slight excitement.
"Little guy, he has the physique of a male protagonist in a doujinshi. You know, the kind who looks weak and submissive, but once he takes his shirt off..."
"Yes, if..."
Although neither of them had any practical experience, they were naturally skilled at flirting, which made the people around them blush.
Even Hu Tao, who already knew this, felt a little embarrassed after eating and seeing it.
At this moment, Bai Ye finally finished channeling all the energy into his body.
The body is filled with the powerful energy of Apep herbal extract.
He excitedly clenched his fist.
After throwing a few punches, Bai Ye looked at Zhongli and said:
"Now, even in my physical form, I possess the same power as the Divine Aura."
When it comes to a simple comparison of strength, if we're talking about scheming and skillful maneuvering, Bai Ye is still slightly inferior.
He was about to express his gratitude to Zhongli when Zhongli casually pointed at Bai Ye.
"It would be best if you changed your clothes first."
"Ah!?"
Only then did Bai Ye notice his situation: he was hanging naked in mid-air, which was incredibly embarrassing.
Upon seeing his own Serenitea Pot being captured by Shenhe, Bai Ye 'whooshed' into the Serenitea Pot and began changing his clothes.
Venti watched from the side, shaking her head with some regret.
"It's a pity I didn't take any photos."
"Um!?"
Raiden Ei's eyes instantly turned murderous.
Are you trying to threaten Bai Ye?
"No, no, no, you can only make a little money by threatening people. I could make much more if I sold the photos."
Venti had only spoken half a sentence when she saw Raiden Ei's sword slash down.
He instinctively wanted to dodge, but then he noticed that there were many herbs floating around him. Venti turned his head and saw only the gentle smiling face of the King Deshret.
As a result, Venti was slapped in the face and left in a sorry state.
Bai Ye changed her clothes and came out, but seeing the others' embarrassment, and the way Lady Guuji and Eight Divine Child slightly licked their lips, Bai Ye herself became even more shy.
"I'm a little tired, I'll rest for a while."
Bai Ye said hurriedly.
He quickly pulled Shenhe towards the flying direction below.
During the process of descending, Bai Ye glanced at Apep had been completely drained of his strength.
Its body, which used to be several meters long, was now only a few meters long, and it looked like an ordinary little snake.
Zhongli used his powers to imprison Apep inside a rock.
He then threw the stone to the King Deshret, indicating that she should keep it safe.
Bai Ye landed on the ground, Hu Tao immediately came to his side to help him up.
Although Bai Ye felt full of power in his body at this Bai Ye, he also needed to rest more.
Shenhe, standing to the side, also looked exhausted.
Her mental strength had also reached its limit.
"You should rest first."
Guizhong looked at Bai Ye and Shenhe and immediately said with heartache.
"Yes, you should get some rest first."
The four guardian spirits, including Venti, also landed. Venti spoke to Bai Ye.
"I know."
Bai Ye's expression relaxed, and then she closed her eyes and began to rest.
It's great that things have finally come to an end and no ordinary people were harmed.
"You must be tired too. What you need most right now is rest."
Zhongli looked at the other girls, and although he knew Bai Ye's charm, he couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
He vaguely recalled the idea that the Heavenly Principles Maintainer had come up with a few days ago, which was to taint most of Teyvat with the bloodline of the Bai Ye.
This is absurd.
Meanwhile, Cloud Retainer left and returned to his Guizhong.
"My apprentice has worked very hard today."
"Don't worry, I know."
Guizhong gave Cloud Retainer a reassuring smile.
Cloud Retainer also laughed happily.
Guizhong touched his chin.
Next, Little Bai Ye will be traveling alone for a while, and there are some things that should be done before the journey begins.
As night fell, the Bai Ye slowly rose within the Serenitea Pot.
Just as he was about to get up, he found his waist firmly held in place by a pair of thighs.
Turning his head, he saw white strands of hair cascading down his side.
The familiar scent of the lizard, the familiar cool fragrance, and the burning passion beneath that coolness.
Bai Ye Yezhi was being embraced by Shenhe at that moment.
Sensing Bai Ye waking up, Shenhe slowly raised his head, his eyes fixed intently on Bai Ye.
