The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"As long as the three forces below are still clashing, and the island remains on the edge of the Dark Outer Sea, the elemental power will continue to surge up."

"His approach will be good enough if it keeps Haiqi Island normal for a little over a hundred years, as for longer..."

"Hmm?" Kutri raised an eyebrow but didn't continue. Everyone knew that after more than a hundred years, Haiqi Island would revert to its original, wretched state.

In fact, keeping the soil unchanged for over a hundred years is already a very long time in terms of human lifespan.

This can indeed be called a success, but the key lies in Yu Jin's pursuit of perfection. He either doesn't do something at all, or he does it thoroughly.

"You sound so arrogant," Ember said, jumping on Kutri's forehead, his tone full of suspicion.

“Of course!” Kutri readily admitted his confidence. He glanced at Ruotuo beside him and slowly said, “Kid, watch closely. I’ll only demonstrate the power of the dragon once!”

Chapter 586 Who exactly is the Rock Dragon?

2024-04-04

"Oh!"

The flames that had been extinguished on Kutri reignited, causing the dense fog to churn once more.

"What are you doing? Wasn't it already done?"

The immense heat caused the people on the shore to retreat, staring in astonishment at the flames leaping through the steam.

"Hey! Excuse me, is anyone in that big pit in the middle?"

"Never mind, let's scan it once first!"

Without giving the crowd below a chance to answer, Kutri began to act on his own.

His crimson dragon eyes were fixed on the sunken basin in the center of Haiqi Island, and soon the scenery there began to distort.

Kutri certainly didn't have the ability to distort such a large area of ​​space; he simply raised the temperature of the basin in the center of Haizhi Island.

"call!"

As the temperature rose, a howling wind suddenly surged into the basin. In an instant, the once bright sky turned dark and gloomy.

The newly formed soil was blown up by a strong wind and scattered in the air. Hot air rose, and the sea breeze poured down.

It seemed as if an unprecedented typhoon had struck Haegeisho Island, except that this typhoon only swept through the central basin.

Controlling the temperature of the atmosphere, the strong winds transformed into the outstretched arms of the Kutri. The gale swept across the basin, sweeping everything below.

"Hmph! Quickly send people to search. With hot and cool air blowing together, even if there are people, they should be fine, but I can't guarantee it."

Kutri glanced at the group below him and snorted coldly. If it weren't for Yu Jin being there, he might have "accidentally" done something wrong.

Regardless, Ember, as a friend, always considered his feelings, and Kutri reciprocated in kind.

Since Ember has connections with humans, Kutri can temporarily set aside his past hatred in Ember's presence.

"Did you dye your fur? I think you should be green," Yu Jin exclaimed, glancing at the gradually calming gale on Haiqi Island.

He had no doubt that if Kutri had set the temperature to an even more extreme level and controlled the wind direction more steadily, a tornado the size of Haiji Island would have been created!

This ability to control the wind made Ember compare him to Dvalin.

Then he discovered that Tvalin seemed to be no better than Kutri at controlling the wind.

After all, Kootri doesn't use any wind element at all; he simply controls the wind by relying on the most inconspicuous natural phenomena.

Tvalin still has a way to learn from this method.

"That's child's play. If it were a wind dragon, it could blow the entire island away."

Kutri shook his head and said, "Such a little wind can only bully ordinary creatures."

If it were a dragon, such a breeze would only be enough to cool it down.

“Well, I think there’s one guy whose education needs to be put on the agenda.” Upon hearing this, Ember thought of Dvalin again.

He thought that Dvalin might, perhaps, possibly... well, there was no way Dvalin could have blown up Haizhi Island.

This guy just sleeps all day in the Wind Dragon Ruins. When is he going to learn how to be a good teacher?

Kutri said he was already used to the incomprehensible words coming from the embers. After all, that's just how Embers are; they sometimes suddenly spout things he can't understand.

Therefore, Kutri's movements did not stop at all. He slowly closed his dragon eyes and began to connect with the fire elemental power underground.

"???"

A moment later, Kutri opened his eyes, his terrifying crimson gaze filled with confusion. He had discovered that the elemental energy beneath the Sea Island was almost completely drained.

"Hiccup~"

Ruotuo's burp left Kutri speechless. He had thought that no matter how much Ruotuo ate, he couldn't possibly consume all the elemental energy flowing below.

But to his surprise, Ruotuo's appetite far exceeded his expectations. This guy actually devoured all the elemental energy below!

Looking at Ruotuo's bulging belly and comparing it to his own slender body, Kutri felt that it wasn't unacceptable.

Is the soil so nutritious that it can make Ruotuo so fertile?

Shaking his head to clear his mind of the random thoughts, Kutri let out a deep breath.

Since the elemental forces underground are no longer usable, he has no choice but to use his own.

"call!"

The flames on Kutri's body surged even more fiercely, stretching and breaking like outstretched wings.

The flames that were torn apart were feathers that fell off when the wings unfolded.

The fiercer the flames, the more fire feathers appeared. Countless flames, like meteorites shattering before their descent, left trails of fire.

These fire feathers were not headed anywhere else, but rather to the central basin, which had already been cleared away by Kutri.

Fire feathers fell one by one, like snowflakes encountering the blazing sun, merging into the earth, which in turn made the ground hot.

At first, only wisps of smoke rose, as the moisture in the soil evaporated. Then came a similar amount of steam to that around Kutri, caused by the central water system being scorched by the hot earth.

The basin at the center of Haegei Island has a complex water system. Streams from higher parts of the island, seawater seeping in from all directions, and an endless supply of fresh water all converge here.

Now, apart from the outermost streams, most of the waterways here have begun to boil.

On the altar in the crevices of the distant cliffs, a blue cube seemed to sense something and immediately scurried away to a greater distance.

The formless water shrank its elemental shell into a ball, trembling.

The ground temperature had risen so high that lava was forming, and fire feathers continued to fall into it.

The earth began to throb and tremble, as if something was trying to break free from its shell. As the fire feathers continued to fall, the tremors of the earth grew stronger and stronger.

"boom!"

Finally, the land could no longer suppress what lay beneath. Vast swathes of lava erupted from the earth.

"呲-"

Water and fire intertwine, creating a scene of blue and red clashing at the center of Haigi Island.

The lava fell into the water and turned into dark rocks. Magma continued to erupt, and the black area grew larger and larger.

There is a lot of flowing lava, but Haiji Island is never short of water; there is plenty of water here as well.

As water and fire fused together, the stone foundation formed by the cooling magma grew thicker and thicker.

"boom!"

The flames brought forth not only lava, but also sand and soil from deeper underground. At the breach in the earth enclosed by obsidian, rocks and black soil mixed with lava, of unknown depth, spewed out and piled up on the stone base.

"Rumble!" The earth rumbled incessantly, and no one knew what was happening beneath Haiqi Island. All they saw was black soil and boulders riding on lava rushing to the surface in the center of Haiqi Island, and then piling up on the surface again.

And so, a brand new and towering giant volcano rose up before everyone's eyes.

The volcano's summit is significantly higher than the highlands of Haegeishima Island, and its radius directly occupies half of the central basin of Haegeishima Island.

"呲-"

As the last bit of lava cooled in the scalding water, the newly formed volcano fell silent.

“Alright, it’s all over.” Kutri looked at the rising volcano and confidently extinguished the flames on his body.

"Humans, this volcano is my way of returning the favor you have shown to your families."

"This volcano is very deep; it connects to the confluence of three forces beneath the earth. Any excess elemental force will become the power for its eruptions."

"I can also tell you the timing of the eruption. Starting from today, it erupts approximately once every three hundred years."

"As for how fertile the volcanic eruption is, I think the humans who have occupied Nata know better than I do."

Kutri explained to the crowd below, then turned around.

Before leaving, he looked at Ruotuo and said to the somewhat dazed junior, "Kid, do you understand now?"

"Elemental power is certainly powerful when used brute force, but it is even more powerful when used according to the situation!"

Having said that, Kutri turned and walked into the deeper sea without looking back.

Chapter 587 Showing off is unacceptable

2024-04-04

"Ouch, that hurts so much!"

On the churning surface of the dark sea, a giant snake rolled more fiercely than the waves.

His enormous body would occasionally spring out from underwater, only to crash back down, splashing up large amounts of seawater.

"Seeing how arrogant you were before, I thought I was underestimating you. I didn't expect even a dragon could be so boastful?"

Ember, who had been flung off Kutri's head, flew through the air and looked down at Kutri, who was throwing a tantrum, and couldn't help but complain.

This guy really is one way in public and another way in private. When he was building a volcano on Haiqi Island, he had the aura of a dragon king, but as soon as he returned to the Dark Outer Sea, he turned into a shameless snake.

"Nonsense, I can't lose face in front of humans!" Kutri roared as he rolled around.

He was already severely injured, and the elemental power within his body had become so rigid that it was almost uncontrollable.

Dragons grow larger as elemental energy accumulates, and half of the enormous size of Kutri is due to the "hardened" elemental energy.

Forcibly activating elemental power under such circumstances would undoubtedly cause significant damage to Kutri.
