I'm in the Teyvat running group

Especially in this world where information can be obtained through magic and various other methods, even interrogation is not very meaningful. As long as the price is right, just let the mage find a way.
In this situation, Yunxiu encountered all sorts of similar enemies, and the simplest option was to directly destroy her body.
However, all of this was a matter for later. After resting overnight in Gray River, Yunxiu returned to Baisong Town the next day to await Yueji's return.
Perhaps because it was indeed too difficult for her to absorb and reorganize her power this time, Yue Ji did not land in the sky above Baisong Town until the afternoon. However, it was obvious to the naked eye that her aura and condition were much better than before.
In Yunxiu's perception, Yueji was now almost indistinguishable from an ordinary mortal. If she didn't unleash her full power, she would appear to be just an ordinary mortal girl. But Yunxiu also knew that this was a manifestation of returning to simplicity, and Yueji's strength had indeed increased dramatically.
However, if she wants to go further, she will most likely need to collect all four divine artifacts to make up for some of the doll's shortcomings, which is something that cannot be done in a short period of time.
But there weren't many legendary figures in this world who could ascend to godhood in such a short time...
Based on Yunxiu's current understanding, it is highly likely that only Huzhaigong, Funina, and Xiaoyue Zhuyang Zhenjun possess the ability to advance at any time. The reason they haven't advanced yet is more due to the lack of laws in this world. They can only have the opportunity to advance when there is a lack of gods.
The law of Fox Palace is "True Words", the law of Funina is "Illusion", and Yunxiu doesn't know much about the Moon-Cut Sun True Lord. However, judging from his few brief bursts of power, it is most likely "Sealing". Space is unlikely. This world has the Ruler of the Void, so it is not his place.
As for other countries, once their gods fall, it is very likely that a long period of power vacuum will emerge.
"Let's go, let's head to the Primordial Sea of the Embryo now!" Yue Ji chuckled, took Yun Xiu's hand, and proactively released a strange power: "My current source of power is now 'Teardrop'!"
Yunxiu did indeed sense a power transmitted from Yueji's hand. It was quite gentle and warm, yet continuous, and even faintly possessed a power beyond the world. In terms of the source of energy itself, it already had the feeling of a god.
However, this is not surprising. In terms of level alone, these artifacts are definitely comparable to gods, and are a level higher than the weapons Yunxiu is currently using.
It would take at least several evolutions before it could reach the same level.
However, since it takes at least a month to evolve through absorption, Yunxiu wasn't in a hurry to evolve her weapon.
The two followed the Gestalt path and arrived once again at the sealed location of the primordial ocean of conception.
Unlike the previous two times, this time Tsukihime easily opened the gate to the core of the Primordial Fetal Sea, and the two of them jumped down and entered this strange sea.
If the primordial sea of Merlo Petersburg is a gentle and fertile sea, then the primordial sea here carries a somewhat violent aura. Perhaps because the aura is so peculiar, Yunxiu actually sensed a strangely familiar aura within it.
The two walked forward and soon discovered a giant water-shaped phantom standing in the center of the womb, with two cocoons encasing it beside it.
“Not bad…you really did manage to get those things here. No wonder you’re 'Descendants' who can rival the world…” Rene, or rather Nazisen Cruz, let out a strange laugh before continuing, “Take these two 'Cocoons' with you; they’ll wake up soon.”
"Master René, do you know what happened to Agoria?"
“She is not dead…” A strange light emanated from Rene’s body before he continued, “She has simply transformed into this sea of wombs… nurturing hope.”
"This sea...was she transformed?" Yunxiu reached out and touched the sea in disbelief. "Could she have done that in just a few days?"
“It was a very long time, a very long time, during which she gradually transformed into this sea, finally returning everything she had to herself,” René said. “She transformed everything into a sword, leaving it in the center of the sea. That sword could destroy the ‘Throne of Gods,’ thus granting the Grand Inquisitor complete ‘Power over Water’…”
"Then...is she still alive?" Tsukihime couldn't help but ask, "If she's truly gone, is it really that simple?"
“She was originally the heart of the womb, so naturally she won’t die.” René tossed over a peculiar bead: “Here, take this. You know who this should be given to…”
Yunxiu took the bead and discovered it was a strange object called "Heart of the Fetal Sea." There was no description of it, but he knew in his heart that it was probably something left behind by Egolia after her death, just like the sapling left behind by the Great Tree King, which could theoretically be reborn...
When will they be reborn? That's another question.
The two looked behind Master René and there was indeed a peculiar sword, much like the Still Water Flowing Radiance in Fryna's hand, but with many differences in details, especially at the very top of the hilt, where there was a goddess holding a water droplet, just like Egolia.
Tsukihime tried to touch the sword and easily pulled it out, but it had no special features. It seemed that apart from being pretty, it was not as good as an ordinary sword that cost 100 Mora at the blacksmith's shop.
“This shouldn’t be for us.” Yunxiu shook her head. “As for who will use this sword, we already have the answer… But the good news is that Funina may indeed no longer need to serve as the water goddess.”
Yunxiu looked at the two cocoons and examined them carefully for a while before realizing that they had indeed reached the final stage of development and should break out within a day or two. He did not move but sat down on the spot.
Touching the callus, Yunxiu looked at René and said, "Master René, your 'World Scale' should be able to calculate that the crisis in Fengdan can now be resolved, although some price will still need to be paid. Do you still intend to stay here?"
“If I don’t stay here, where can I go?” René chuckled dryly. “Besides, there’s nowhere left for me in this world…”
“I’m willing to give you a place to stay, and perhaps I can even find a way to resurrect your wife…” Yunxiu chuckled, “If I’m not mistaken, you should still have your wife’s soul, right? Let me see it, okay?”
"You... can do this?" René stretched out his hands, enveloping a beautiful crystal. Time around the crystal almost stood still, condensing into "a moment of eternity".
Yunxiu understood that this was most likely a tiny space created by René, similar to a "final resting place," which was also his last thought.
After looking at it carefully, Yunxiu chuckled and said, "Yes, but... you'll need to work for me for a while."
"..." After carefully examining Yunxiu, Lei Nei suddenly burst into laughter. He transformed into a young man, but his body was composed of strange spiritual light, and he was an existence that contained a special aura.
Yunxiu wasn't surprised; this level of transformation shouldn't be too difficult for Rene.
He looked at Yunxiu carefully again with his 'human' eyes, his hands rapidly shifting between streams of spiritual light. After a long while, he finally spoke, "I can work for you for ten years. I think that's enough..."
"Twenty years. Of course, I can advance you part of your payment." Yunxiu smiled. "You can choose your payment: return to normal or revive your wife first."
“Thank you… I choose to resurrect my wife.” Rene smiled before continuing, “Then, do I need to sign a ‘contract’ like the people of Liyue…”
"Of course, but it shouldn't be here. What are our plans for Baisong Town?"
René nodded and sat down with the two of them, waiting for the two "cocoons" to unravel.
The Primordial Ocean of the Womb possesses unparalleled energy and fertility on the entire planet, from which even Funina has benefited considerably.
This is because it is one of the most fundamental powers enhanced by the "Governance of Life," and especially with the return of Egolia, this gestation sea has become even stronger.
The "captain" and the "girl" naturally benefited greatly from this, but Yunxiu still couldn't figure out who the "fake Funina" was, or what she was plotting...
If it really is Huo Dewang, why hasn't he appeared yet? And if it isn't, then what is his conspiracy?
One thing is certain now: Ergolia's passing was actually a long process, not something that could be resolved in a few days. Therefore, it is entirely understandable that the fake Frynn chose to cause trouble in these few days.
Because essentially, these past few days have been the time when Fontaine's strength is at its weakest. Its only fighting force, Vilette, is also trying to suppress the entire Fontaine, so it's no wonder he can't spare any power...
These few Fools were most likely also diverted, but they unexpectedly gained benefits, which was not expected and may be "fate".
However, something must have happened in Fontaine that Yunxiu was unaware of. As for what exactly it was, perhaps we can only wait for it to come to light.
Yunxiu's only guess now is that this matter is likely related to shattering the divine throne. Apart from that, he can't think of anything else that could make this demonic monk or anyone else plot like this.
Chapter 223 The Actions of the Four Gods (Third update on Wednesday!)
The three waited for a full day. During this time, Yunxiu also took the time to organize her current spells. After reaching the ninth ring, she could use a large number of spells directly without having to create weakened versions as before.
From a purely strength perspective, weakening spells are actually inferior to normal spells. However, the biggest advantage of weakening spells is that they can be used at lower levels without having to wait for higher ring ranks.
Especially spells like Prayer and Time Hijacking, whose effects are so strong that even if their power is reduced, they are still almost irreplaceable.
In other words, especially something like Prayer, if a truly terrifying mage could reduce it to a level that only a first-level mage could use, then it would definitely be the most powerful spell at the first level.
However, it is difficult for the Nine Rings to use weakened versions of legendary spells.
Legendary spells, also known as tenth-ring spells, are often no longer related to damage or defense; they are purely conceptual products.
For example, the tenth-ring spell Astral Resonance theoretically allows you to see the mysteries of the universe and ask questions based on your attribute bonuses. These questions will generally be answered, although most of the answers are riddles that require further explanation.
The witch Barbie Ross will most likely use this spell, but judging from the spell itself, Yunxiu definitely won't be able to learn it in a short time.
Among the eleventh-ring spells is the ability to rewrite history, not to mention things like the twelfth-ring spell "Super Wish". Yunxiu previously obtained a box sealed with "Super Wish" at Crane Temple, which has not been opened to this day.
The conceptual nature of this means that it is virtually impossible for Yunxiu to use legendary spells at the legendary level.
Although he can upgrade his spells to legendary levels of destructive power, against a true legend, unless aided by a divine artifact, it is difficult to even break through their defenses.
Just like Yunxiu himself, if he were a legendary mage, then his defense could be completely achieved using invincibility spells or similar artifacts, making him conceptually invincible. Only divine power or artifacts imbued with divine power could harm him...
The damage can be dealt with simply and brutally using destructive spells like Cataclysm. A Cataclysm can even cover the entire territory of a country. Although the damage per hit is not high, the terrifying coverage area is on the level of complete world destruction.
Of course, developing legendary spells is far more difficult than developing spells below legendary. The preparation of many legendary spells requires rituals or the presence of other mages, and Teyvat itself is suppressing its power.
However, it is undeniable that legends have the power to destroy an ordinary plane, and this is especially true for Yunxiu.
Of course, he had already determined the key spells he needed to prepare next.
That is to establish a true "space" that is not rooted in the ley lines of Teyvat itself, to prepare for one's family and friends. To do this, the creation of a demiplane at the legendary level is a must.
Then, she would truly carve out a location from her own sea of consciousness, making this space "independent." As for combat, Yunxiu's plan was to continue with defense to the end—since Yueji and the others had made efforts, she didn't really need to raise her output to a very high level; she could always use some magic to solve the problem later...
After pondering the spell for a while, the first cocoon finally cracked open.
A tall and imposing figure emerged from among them; it was none other than "Captain" Capitano.
He stared at his body in disbelief, feeling his seemingly reborn physique, and exclaimed in surprise, "This... is the rebirth brought about by the primordial womb?"
His body was restored to near-peak condition, and the souls he had preserved were housed in a new "container," where they not only survived but also did not cause him much of a burden.
In terms of pure strength, I am not much different from before, but in terms of the ability to fight for a long time, I am almost twice as strong!
He was no longer the powerful warrior who could only unleash one or two bursts of power before having to withdraw from the battlefield due to his physical condition.
“Hello, Captain, perhaps I should call you Serene?” Yunxiu smiled. “Nice to meet you. I think you should know me.”
"Captain, Captain! How have you been lately? Have you been out for tea yet?" Yueji scratched the captain's peculiar coat and touched his newly acquired attire before happily saying, "It's rare to see you like this. Are you finally free?"
“Miss Tsukihime… Although we have worked together before, I don’t think we are that familiar with each other.” The captain said helplessly, “As for Mr. Yunxiu, I have heard Arecino and Sandone mention you. Thank you for giving them a good environment.”
"While it wasn't exactly a small favor, it certainly didn't take much effort," Yunxiu smiled. "Captain, would you be interested in working under me? I think I can offer you more than I could with the Ice Queen."
“Thank you, but not for now. I’m heading to Nata. I heard from a friend of the ‘Smoke Master’ that the selection of Nata’s ‘Six Heroes’ is nearing completion, and the Night Watchers’ War may be imminent.” The captain patted his longsword. “I plan to fight one last battle for Nata; this will be my final battle…”
Next, will he go to Nata, ultimately merge with the Night God, and reshape the ley lines of Nata...?
Yunxiu's feelings for this person are very complicated. Purely from the perspective of strength, he actually really wants the captain to join his ranks. The captain's strength is no worse than that of Xiaoyue Zhuyang Zhenjun or Huzhaigong, and is even slightly stronger, despite the influence of the Ice Queen.
However, if he is willing to pay some price and have Thor forge him a "weapon," he could very well maintain his strength. Moreover, the captain is of an extremely high standard in terms of both character and morality, which is a pity for him to be under the Queen's command.
His greatness can be seen simply from his assessment after he ascended the throne:
"A towering body frosts the sun, two eras grant Nata two liberations."
If I were to ascend to the Legendary level, I might be able to use Legendary Fate Weaving and Legendary Energy Reshaping to directly bind the ley lines themselves. After reshaping, I could then exploit a bug in a different way and ultimately save the captain...
"If I can solve the final problem, can you work for me?" Yunxiu asked tentatively. "Aregino, Sandone, and Rosalind are all here now. I think with my abilities, I should be able to solve your predicament..."
"Oh?" The captain looked at Yunxiu with interest, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he said, "If it can indeed achieve the same effect, I don't mind. I've heard you're a pretty good 'boss'."
It seems there's still hope; all I need to do now is figure out how to do it...
The captain was not a talkative person, so he stood with the others and waited together for the return of the last "girl".
The four waited for most of the day. During this time, Tsukihime excitedly took out the Seven Summoning cards and played a few rounds of Seven Summoning with the others. It has to be said that Master Rene's skill level is indeed top-notch in Teyvat. Even though he had never played before, he quickly mastered the game's tricks and made the others flee in disarray.
Even the captain, a master, couldn't withstand the master's level, and his handsome face under the mask was somewhat taken aback.
Until the night of the full moon was almost over, and the moon's aura was waning, a dense lunar force leaked out from the cocoon, supporting a lunar domain within the primordial sea of consciousness.
The girl walked out quietly, almost identical to the one Yunxiu had seen in the game, but there were still some differences. The most obvious difference was naturally her eyes—although they were still closed, Yunxiu could sense that the girl could actually see everything!
She opened her mouth slightly: "Everyone... Oh, I know, this unfamiliar one must be Mr. 'Yunxiu' that Sandonne mentioned, I can sense your presence."
