I'm in the Teyvat running group

"Nico... you used to be much quieter."

"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. You should know why we're here."

"Of course I know. I saw Yunxiu once before... You should be called that now. I told you about Taranis's situation then. I thought you would definitely come back to me after you found a third of her, so I didn't say too much, because everything that comes out will be recorded, which makes it possible for that person to notice."

A mirror appeared in Yunxiu's hand, and a phantom figure appeared on the mirror—a dragon with horns, no tail, and a gentle face.

This is precisely Taranis's destiny, a being that exists in three parts by [Hua Ke Hu Die].

The illusory figure flickered slightly, and her whole body became much more solid. She gently lifted her leg and took a step forward, her hand touching the mirror as she stared intently at the illusory figure in it.

"It was him. Ever since my divine kingdom was shattered by the celestial nails and merged with the earth's veins to become the kingdom of the Night God, her soul has been sleeping here with me. I always thought it was my 'mother's' arrangement, but now I understand... it was your arrangement, you entrusted her to me."

Yunxiu nodded. He knew who that "I" was—the one who was born 6,400 years ago and quickly became the supreme elder of the dragon clan.

"I understand now. So Taranis's soul is with the God of Night, her destiny is with Hyperion, and her body is with Kleiner... When the three are combined, they form the complete Taranis. And Taranis's return will definitely bring a lot of information. No wonder I couldn't remember what Taranis did or what happened at that time. It turns out she didn't 'exist' in this world at all!"

Nico finally understood. This was the terrifying aspect of the spell: once the three were separated, neither destiny, ley lines, nor the entire world, nor the archangel Taranis would actually exist. Although angels and those transcendent beings could retain some information in their minds, it was impossible for them to remember all of it.

This is why Serania sensed that her mother was still alive, but couldn't find her no matter what she tried.

Hyperion is caught in the cracks of fate, while Taranis's body is simply outside the universe, and his soul is in the cracks of space, that is, in the realm of the night god. This is why Serania can vaguely sense it.

The phantom of the Night God swayed slightly, and a crystal appeared beside her. The crystal floated towards Yunxiu and landed in his palm.

"This is Taranis's soul, which you preserved here back then. Although I don't know what kind of power is needed for the three to become one, I think you should be able to do it. However, I don't know where to fuse them or what ritual is required. But if you choose to fuse them in the realm of the Night God, I can accept it."

"Of course not, we have a perfect place." Yunxiu smiled: "With the help of the fused life force, we may be able to solve many things."

"Congratulations to you... and congratulations to Taranis as well."

"Time is running out, we need to leave. If we stay any longer, we'll probably be discovered."

"Wait, let me say one last thing." Yunxiu patted Nico's hand with a smile and said to Ye Shen with a smile, "Soon, you should also have the opportunity to walk in the sunlight. If I'm not mistaken, his suppression of the entire world will soon weaken further. You can prepare for your own resurrection. As for what materials you need... I have something here that you might find useful."

Yunxiu took out a storage bag and placed it directly above the Night God building. It contained some key materials that he had forcibly "exchanged" for. The cost was not low, but it should be very useful to Night God.

Night God's body trembled slightly, his face revealing little emotion, and a gentle energy fluctuation was transmitted to Yunxiu and Nico's minds.

"Thank you... I'll seize the opportunity."

Yunxiu nodded, then pulled Nico away. They couldn't stay in this country any longer, and the God of Night needed enough time and effort to prepare.

The girl's ethereal figure watched silently as Nico and Yunxiu flew away. She hovered alone under the moonlight, the light and shadow gently undulating, as if she were talking to herself.

"Taranis, you've waited six thousand years. That person has finally arrived."

A small hand formed of energy gently lifted up, took the storage bag in front of him, and gently opened it. Night God discovered a pile of various supplies inside, from the most basic legendary materials to the silver-white ancient tree branches that formed the core of his body, as well as a few fragments of Heavenly Nails, and even some energy from the "Primordial Fetal Sea".

"Hmm...?" Yagami gently took out the small note from the very back, on which was written the words "Yunxiu Xiaosai".

"Ishcher, revive me. Although I don't know exactly what happened back then, I need you."

"Just like back then... completely unreasonable at times like this."

Chapter 416 Drunkenly Embracing the Milky Way, Traveling with Shadows

The note gently burned and disappeared into the realm of the Night God, but the girl's expression was no longer aloof; instead, she revealed a bright smile.

"Now that the Kingdom of Night is about to be rebuilt, perhaps it really is time for me to leave."

With a gentle shake, the light and shadow vanished, and the entire phantom merged into the building.

-----------------

"What did you give Yagami? Was it some precious materials left over from the last revival and return to the end?"

"Yes, I think she's reached the point where she can be revived, she just needs some resources." Yunxiu smiled and patted Nicole's head before teasing, "Besides, why do we still call her Night Goddess? Doesn't she have her own name?"

"Ah... real names are a rather troublesome thing. Even we angels rarely tell each other our real names. Mother also sealed away this part of our memories of each other, which can only be unlocked at a crucial moment. Perhaps only the names of Taranis and Marikata are known to everyone? Oh, and Zibai too, but I'm not very familiar with them."

"I see..." Yunxiu didn't say much. He naturally knew the real name of the Night God. He knew it the moment he obtained Taranis's destiny. This was the power of coming into contact with the destiny.

Taranis and Ishcher were probably two of the closest of friends back then, otherwise he wouldn't have entrusted her with such important information. However, the main reason was probably because the three countries were relatively close to each other...

Now, the only mystery is the archangel of the ancient kingdom of Inazuma. Judging from the situation in Inazuma, it is clear that the ancient kingdom should be the one in Tsurugan. However, all the information now indicates that there may not even be an accurate record of the time there. Aru, who is now Yunsong, is the last survivor of Tsurugan, but he doesn't remember anything either.

The two quickly returned to the ground, and it was clear that Mavika and Sitralli, who were on guard duty, both breathed a sigh of relief.

They directly closed the entrance to the Night God's Kingdom, and Nico removed all the surrounding formations. Yunxiu nodded to the group, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Now, only Kleiner was left to bring Taranis's body back.

As for where the three-in-one system will be located...

The answer is the space of Crimson Moon. It is chaotic and likely contains many distorted things. But precisely because of this, it is a place of exile that is not watched by the laws of heaven. Yunxiu is confident that he can create a space here and revive Taranis. After Taranis is revived, he will also help him explore the ruins of Crimson Moon. This is much easier than reviving him outside. It can even be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

Kleiner set the time for two days later. As a spatial mage, Alice could naturally be sent at any time. In order to ensure that she could enter the Crimson Moon's space as soon as possible, Yunxiu rested in Nata for one night and left on her pack beast the next day.

Nico didn't continue with Yunxiu. She said she was going to Fontaine to look for some records from back then. Yunxiu understood that this most likely meant entering the Ancient Sea. Below the Ancient Sea was the kingdom of Remuria, which was the kingdom of the "Golden Peak" Sybil. Ying had explored it some time ago and should have sent detailed exploration information to Nico, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to find some things.

However, Nico said he would be back soon, so there's a high chance he'll go in with me tomorrow.

After all, there's a peculiar library right below the town of Petrique, which contains a lot of information. Just ask Alice to teleport you there, and you'll be there in no time.

However, Yunxiu did not go to Nordkalai alone, but with Sylvanas. As the Smoke Shaman of Nata, and especially since Nata had taken in a large number of Nordkalai people, Sylvanas did have official business to attend to. As for why they did not take the teleportation array but instead traveled there with Yunxiu on a beast-drawn carriage, that is another question.

If we talk too much, our Obsidian Grandma will get shy again.

"Sydralli, speaking of which, the manga 'Grandma Obsidian and the Mage,' featuring you as the main character, has started serialization, and it's selling quite well." Yunxiu took out the Spirit Realm Terminal. This one from Sydralli even used a shoujo manga style, making Yunxiu look even more handsome. Even Oloren was depicted as a super handsome guy, which made people both laugh and cry.

"Huh? So this is the authorization agreement I was made to sign!" Sellari's face flushed instantly. She looked helplessly at the comic on Yunxiu's terminal, and after a long pause, cautiously asked, "Is the story of 'Yunxiu Zhenren's Demon-Slaying Chronicles' still being serialized?"

"Of course, it's already up to the Nata volume, and you have a lot of screen time! But the first part is about to end, and I heard the second part is called 'The Moon Volume,' and Columbia will be the main character then." Yunxiu said with a smile, "So, to boost your popularity, they released a comic featuring you, and the revenue share has also been adjusted."

"Adjustment... I don't actually need that much money. I've basically paid all the copyright fees into the Lord of Smoke's treasury. Normally... I don't usually need much money." Sylvanas rarely calculated her bills, and after a long time, she suddenly realized with a bit of dejection: "Oh no, I found out that 80% of my expenses last month were on drinking."

"Isn't there still 20% left?"

"Twenty percent is for Citraline. She ran away from home twice last month, and I finally managed to find her again after a lot of trouble."

amount……

Never mind, it's not a big deal.

To be honest, as the High Shaman of the Smoke Mystery, Setrali didn't have many expenses. The Smoke Mystery's internal system covered all her needs, so strictly speaking, she only needed to spend money on drinking, buying comics and light novels, and some other strange things.

However, ever since she became a guest of honor of Yaedo and Manbunshusha, these two companies would pre-order a first-print limited edition of every new book they published for Sylvia, and they would send it to her once a month through Kira. Nata is not far from Inazuma. The great demon only needs to teleport to the war fortress of Tsurukan first, and then speed all the way from the war fortress to Nata. It will only take two days to get there.

Although Kirara usually has to run to Fontaine and Sumeru after delivering Nata, and finally returns to Inazuma by taking a fleet or teleportation array from Liyue, Sylvanas actually received the manga.

This made his already unbalanced bills even worse, and his entertainment expenses were almost entirely wiped out, as were his expenses in the Spirit Realm. One of Nata's two super administrators was Sitella, and the other was Ianshan. Their authority in the Spirit Realm was almost unbelievable, second only to Yunxiu.

“Drinking isn’t a big deal…would you like a drink?” Yunxiu pulled out a bottle of the new dandelion liqueur she brought from Mondstadt and poured a glass for Sittrali with a smile: “It’s a new one from Mondstadt. They said it would be released at the Wind Flower Festival this year, but it’s been delayed for a while because it’s too much trouble. It might not be until summer. But I have a case of the prototype that Grandpa Diluc gave me. It’s still very good.”

"Hmm... Although drinking can lead to trouble, since you gave it to me, I have no choice but to try it." Celestella took the glass, tilted her head back, and drank more than half of it in one gulp. The cool taste swirled in her mouth, like a whirlwind rushing from her stomach to the top of her head. The aroma of the wine combined with the refreshing taste was indeed a wonderful experience.

"Another one!"

"This is very easy to get drunk on."

"It's okay!" Cetalli looked at Yunxiu with bleary eyes and said, "Do you think I need to worry about what you might do to me, just the two of us...?"

"Anyway, I've done everything I needed to do..."

The sound grew fainter and fainter until it was drowned out by the sound of the waves.

As for how much Yunxiu drank with Sylvia in the end, only the beast-bearer would know.

However, this pack animal has been with him since Yunxiu left the mountain, and it has become accustomed to its master's style. Even though its intelligence has been modified to be comparable to that of an adult, it still possesses the best virtues of a pack animal driver.

That is to keep your mouth shut.

Of course, the next morning, Yunxiu and Sylvanas appeared on the land of Nordkalai in high spirits and walked to the entrance of the egg roll workshop. Although they had indeed drunk a lot the day before, after sleeping for a night and applying a few medium-level recovery spells, they were naturally fine.

Princess Tsukihime has returned, as have Arecino and Columbia. They have confirmed the location of the Crimson Moon Space, and now they just need to wait for Alice to deliver Taranis's body so they can all head to the Crimson Moon Ruins together.

"The coordinates you gave me are correct, right?" Tsukihime, who was getting a little impatient, turned to look at Yunxiu and said, "Alice said she would directly teleport the sealed item here. If it's wrong, it will be quite troublesome."

“My positioning method uses key energy and spatial anchor points for positioning, how could there be a problem?” Yunxiu shook his head. Most likely, Alice was delayed by other things. Just speaking of spatial anchor points, apart from the mages of the ancient civilization, there may be no one in this world stronger than him. After all, the current cornerstone of space, namely the [Anti-interference Spatial Anchoring Technique], came from his hands.

Suddenly, a portal of light slowly opened in front of them, and a figure dragged out a small box. It was not Alice, but the witch Okotavia. Nicole also gently landed on the ground behind her. It seemed that the witch had brought her back.

She smiled and handed the small box to Yunxiu, saying, "Alice had some troublesome things to deal with today, so she asked me to deliver this... My spatial magic skills are a bit lacking, so locating things is quite difficult. I'm sorry."

"It's alright." Yunxiu took the small box, carefully examined it, and finding nothing amiss, smiled and asked, "Is there something wrong with Alice? Although she can be unreliable at times, I know her well enough to know her well in these matters. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

“Sigh, Kleinar encountered a portion of the Abyss Disaster on his way back, causing problems with several teleportations. Alice had to help him stabilize the space. The couple is still busy there, and I’ll be going to help soon.” Okotavia sighed helplessly, then looked at the group behind Yunxiu before saying with interest, “Did you collect all the Moon Artifacts from the ‘Io’ world? It seems the people around you are far more powerful than I imagined.”

"Yes, it's the artifact of the Moon Goddess from that world, but I'm still quite surprised that her powers can extend here."

"The moon possesses conceptual-level power in every world, which is why that goddess is exceptionally powerful. However, it is truly miraculous that she could bestow these four divine artifacts here; it's almost as if she has diverted a portion of her essence."

"Perhaps, this world really does hold some ancient secrets."

“I do believe that. This world is indeed completely different from what I imagined.” Okotavia waved her hand before continuing, “Alright, I’m going to help Alice now. Be careful too. Barbielos told me that your method is correct and there shouldn’t be too much interference this time. But you need to be careful because the future Dark Side of the Moon may be the moment of real confrontation. You need to be prepared.”

"I know."

Okotavia nodded, passed through the door, and left immediately.

Yunxiu looked at the box in her hand, casually cast a seal, and placed the box, crystal, and mirror together. A subtle fluctuation had already appeared between the three.

This is precisely the sign that they are trying to merge!

Chapter 417 The Crimson Moon Leads the Way, Igniting the Realm Fire

“We need to set off immediately and enter the Crimson Moon Kingdom.” Yunxiu looked at the group around her and said, “Columbia, Yueji, Nico and I will go in together. Arecino should stay outside to maintain the opening of the Crimson Moon Space, and Cetalari will be in charge of dismantling and preparing part of the magic array in the Egg Roll Workshop, together with Inef.”

"As for Ineff, how is the renovation of the egg roll workshop progressing? Have all the key equipment been removed?"

"The modification progress is 77.51%, the key equipment removal is 82.22%, and the remaining part requires maintaining the weapon system and energy. With Cetalari's help, it can be completed within 62 hours." A series of numbers flashed in Ineff's eyes, which was also the most meticulous thing about this robot, and Yunxiu liked it quite a bit.

Yunxiu nodded, rubbed Cetalli's head, and watched as the Obsidian Grandma gritted her teeth and bit her hand before obediently leaving.

Although she knew that this old lady would sometimes get inexplicably shy and would show off her useless fangs, Yunxiu still wanted to tease her.

The Crimson Moon Space is located near Star Beach. A magic circle had already been set up there by Arecino and Columbia. In the original storyline, Arecino was almost suddenly entrusted with the important task of opening the Crimson Moon Space. In the end, she not only opened the space but also used her power to block many monsters, which is why she suffered so much.

However, if you can prepare in advance, it will naturally be less painful, as you can use a large number of magic arrays to reduce the damage.

“In ancient Kanria, there were some unwritten customs. Before a child entered the orphanage, they had to walk through a dark fireplace, symbolizing crossing the two worlds by the light of a spark. Afterward, they would be reborn,” Arecino explained to the group. “This is the origin of the name ‘Fire of Two Worlds,’ the flame in my blood. The Kanria people believe this fire can connect the worlds of life and death.”

"I can also connect the realms of life and death, but I do so by borrowing the power of the 'Moon.'" Tsukihime conjured an extremely pure radiant energy in her hand, something she could only achieve after obtaining the powers of the Four Sacred Treasures. "However, we Inazuma call this the mortal world and the present world. Perhaps Mother understands better, but I don't really understand it very well."

Strictly speaking, both of these people have a deep connection with the "moon," including Columbia, who is floating behind them.
