I'm in the Teyvat running group

Ying smiled, but didn't say much. She had roamed the starry sea and experienced countless battles; this was simply a return of her power.

Yunxiu wasn't surprised. From the perspective of the spell itself, its power is certainly important, but its compatibility is also very important. At least for him, this powerful spell wasn't very compatible with him.

Moreover, the way mages fight is not like that, and the increase in size of their bodies does not have much significance.

Even if that day comes, his choice will most likely be to develop some kind of giant construct, creating a super Gundam to fight monsters...

Of course, for Yunxiu right now, the most important thing is to discuss the most suitable strategy with Qixing as soon as possible. Even considering that Ying has the strength to barely fight against Osael head-on, he has no idea how strong "Mechanical Osael" really is.

He didn't even know the extent of "Ba Che's" strength.

After chatting with the others for a while, Yunxiu left. She went to Wanmintang for dinner, talked with Xiangling for a while, and arranged for Xiangling to come and stay tonight. Only then did Yunxiu leisurely return home.

Shen He has returned to Mount Aozang to learn new spells these past few days. Sugar has also improved a lot in strength due to her continuous development of spells and Yunxiu's help in ranking up. She was recently picked up by Abedo, supposedly for an alchemist advancement program.

Yueji had disappeared again, and because Yujingtai had been so busy lately that Yunxiu was the only one left at home, she was just about to take out "Chronicles of the Land Between Liuli Rocks" to continue reading when she heard a clear voice coming from the doorway.

"Yunxiu! Yunxiu! Yunxiu!" The voice rushed in hurriedly, and several dozen seconds later, a figure entered the gate with the sound of footsteps. It was Yue Ji, dressed in a strange outfit!

Strictly speaking, this dress is not revealing or strange at all. Its cute shape and appropriate tailoring, along with the wide sleeves and simple colors, mean that the only part that is exposed is the sleeves. When Yunxiu ordered it from Qianzhiwu, she specifically requested a style with cut sleeves and exposed armpits.

But when worn by Tsukihime, it has a peculiar beauty, especially since her original body was a doll created by the Thunder God, and there are even traces of joints.

These marks, combined with this modified armpit-revealing shrine maiden outfit, create a truly unique feeling, even sparking some ideas in Yunxiu's children.

"These 120,000 were definitely worth it..." Yunxiu couldn't help but sigh.

Whether an outfit suits you or not sometimes depends not on what's showing, but on what's covering up.

For example, there's a question on Zhihu: Is it inappropriate to go to public places if your clothing only covers 30% of your body? Yunxiu can only say that this idea is really naive.

Back in the day, a certain US country actually conducted a review of clothing coverage. As a result, a legendary magazine founder, Hefner, created the Bunny Girl outfit, which featured clothing covering more than 80% of the body and even included gloves.

Just as Yunxiu was lost in thought, she saw Yueji with a look of anxiety on her face. She sat down next to Yunxiu, her face almost touching Yunxiu's, and said, "I have found the key to breaking through, but I have no idea how to proceed to the next step!"

Chapter 107 Midnight Poetry Talk and Hearing Wonderful Dharma (First Update on Sunday!)

"Breakthrough? What breakthrough?"

Still lost in her daydreams, Yunxiu hadn't thought of that yet, and instead continued to observe Yueji's dress with great interest.

"I've found a way to advance!" Tsukihime said earnestly, "If there's a big enough battle to put pressure on me, I might actually find a way forward!"

"Oh?" Yunxiu finally realized something and forced herself to calm down. She looked at Yueji seriously, tapped her lightly, and performed a check. Sure enough, she saw a status on Yueji.

"Towards Legend: Find the opportunity for breakthrough in endless battles. Your progress will increase based on the intensity of your challenges. Currently at 40/10000, with 9 days and 22 hours remaining, your final progress will determine the extent of your improvement!"

Only 40... but what is this standard?

"Oh dear, under the Emperor's guidance, I've grasped some of the tricks, and later I entered the Layered Rock Abyss and killed a strange ancient construct serpent." Yue Ji took out a storage bag and handed it to Yun Xiu, saying, "I'll give you the materials too. I don't really need them, but my inspiration only goes so far, and then it's all gone."

The giant serpent from the ruins gave 40 points...

At this rate, it's almost impossible for a level 9 monster to reach maximum power, and even a regular legendary monster is unlikely to be able to do so. Most new legendary players are only about ten to twenty times stronger than level 9 monsters.

Of course, legendary characters generally possess a variety of legendary traits, which makes dealing with twenty nine-ringed characters quite easy for them.

However, all of this is on the premise that Jiu Huan does not have a divine artifact or a blessing from a god, nor does he have a "quasi-legendary" who has already completed half of the legendary path; otherwise, there would be too much pressure.

Yue Ji is in such a state. With the added benefits of the divine artifact, the blessing of the Thunder God, and her status as the child of a god, her combat power is no less than that of a newly entered legendary level. In front of her, nine-ringed magical beasts are basically easy prey, which is why they cannot pose a threat to her.

Under these circumstances, even if Yueji wanted to find a few people to challenge, it would be extremely difficult. If it weren't for this great test, perhaps Yunxiu could have swallowed her pride and begged the immortals, but now all the immortals and human powerhouses are conserving their energy, preparing for the upcoming earth-shattering battle...

Wait... maybe there's a way...

Yunxiu suddenly had an idea: she could use this to deal with Ba Che!

There's no restriction on whether to deal with Oser or Bazhe first in the big exam, but once both are resolved, it won't be a problem. Tsukihime's abilities are indeed a bit too much under Bazhe's pressure, but if we can use Bazhe as a test first, it would be the best choice.

Especially since it's a good opportunity to test the combat capabilities of Gui Zhongji and Qunyu Pavilion...

At most, we can let Ying keep watch; none of the Liyue Sages need to be deployed.

With the support of the Thousand Rock Army, Ying's strength should be enough to kill Bacha in a one-on-one fight. Although this combat power is limited to Liyue and cannot be taken away, it is indeed powerful enough on Liyue's homeland.

“Alright!” Yunxiu made up his mind. Once Yueji achieved a perfect breakthrough, it would mean that they would have another trump card. Teaming up with Ying might actually be able to hold their own against Ausel. At least Yunxiu thought it was worth it. He looked up at Yueji seriously: “Rest for one night. Tomorrow we’ll talk to Qixing and find you a strong enough opponent.”

"You mean..." Tsukihime seemed to realize something and asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, let's talk about it tomorrow," Yunxiu said irritably. "Besides, if I wear this to the Layered Rock Abyss and ruin it, it'll cost me a lot of money, and this is all mine..."

"Oh dear, I'll wear it for you more often from now on." Yueji patted her clothes nonchalantly and grinned mischievously. "Besides, why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me? Let me guess, who's coming to the house tonight, Xiangling or Sugar...?"

"If it were you, it wouldn't be impossible!"

Yunxiu pretended to be angry and suddenly pulled Yueji into her arms. Feeling her doll-like body, which was no different from that of an ordinary girl, she scratched her strange body.

He said fiercely, "I've never experienced what it's like to be a doll girl before. Let me check if any of the 'parts' Thor gave you are missing!"

Yueji giggled as Yunxiu's large hands tickled her, and heat quickly rose from her body due to the contact, which amazed Yunxiu.

How exactly did the Raiden Sisters create such dolls? Can they go even further?

"Hehe, we can't continue today... Wait for me... wait until this is over."

After playing around for a while, Yueji blushed and stood up, running out quickly and leaving a series of sounds behind her: "I'd like to ask the Emperor to take me back to Daoqie tonight, and I'll be back tomorrow morning!"

Watching Yueji leave, Yunxiu began to ponder how to deal with Bache first. According to the original story, in the story of Fengqi Hegui, Liyue's combat strength, even with Shenhe and Ying, could barely be considered as the strength of two or three legendary figures. Guizhongji and Xinqunyuge were certainly good in combat, but far inferior to what they were now.

Shin-haku was stronger back then than he is now, and he was unsealed. Although there was a difference between him and Tsukihime, they should be roughly comparable.

In this situation, Shenhe's ability to temporarily seal Bache with the help of the divine artifact suggests that this member's resistance is likely not strong.

That's right! Since that's the case, why not invite Shen He over as well? Maybe that can help her advance further. Then I'll write out the lyrics for "The Goddess Splits the Temple" for Yun Jin...

He scribbled on the paper, wrote a letter, and then went out to hand it to Qianyanjun, who was nearby, to give to Qixing. Yunxiu then went to Wanmintang to pick up Xiangling and Shenhe.

"Xiuxiu, you've been so busy lately." Xiangling said while munching on a crab roe and beef bun she had made, holding Yunxiu's hand and rubbing her own oil on Yunxiu's hand from time to time. Yunxiu could only helplessly use one water-making spell after another to help Xiangling clean up.

Shen He was also munching on a steamed bun. Although she had always been a vegetarian, she had recently started to pay attention to a balanced diet of meat and vegetables at Yunxiu's suggestion, and occasionally tried seafood. Xiangling specially prepared relatively light flavors for her. Eating at Wanmintang every day had also made Shen He's complexion much better.

"Once these two years are over, things will be fine." Yunxiu washed her hands, patted Xiangling's head, and said earnestly, "We only have these two years left..."

"Ah, what terrible things will happen in two years?" Xiangling thought while munching, but she quickly gave up: "Sigh, it doesn't matter. Anyway, Xiuxiu and Grandma will figure something out, so I don't need to think about it so much."

Before Yunxiu could answer, Xiangling said, "I heard from Yueji that you'll be going to Inazuma soon after you finish your business in Liyue. I'll go with you then! Yueji said there are many new ingredients in Inazuma. I'll go to Inazuma and find the local chefs to have a competition!"

"Alright, alright, I'll arrange for you to stay in Inazuma for a while." Yunxiu agreed to the request without hesitation. At worst, she could just tell Narukami Shrine to arrange for Xiangling to stay with the shrine's magistrate...

I'm sure General Thunder won't refuse my small request.

"Hehe, although Inazuma's cuisine was passed down from Liyue in ancient times, after so long, there must be a lot of new things!"

"Good good..."

“I want to go too.” Shen He also came up and said seriously, “Master said we should gain more experience in the human world.”

“Let’s go together.” Yunxiu pulled Shenhe up, and amidst the intriguing glances of passersby, he fearlessly returned to his home.

Yunxiu led the two directly to his demiplane and leisurely took them to soak in the hot spring. Since returning to Liyue, he had spent a lot of money to hire several master decorators from Liyue's manors to tidy up his demiplane.

He even asked Granny Ping for help to cast a spatial stabilization spell on the demiplane. The price he paid was the complete runes of several eighth and ninth ring spatial spells. Even True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang was a little envious. He took one of his treasured magic treasures and exchanged it with Yunxiu for several prophetic spell runes.

This magical artifact is currently the "source of life" in the demiplane. It can continuously absorb energy and transform it into grass and water elemental power. It has already transformed a small part of the plane into high-quality spiritual fields. Xiangling has even grown super vegetables that can be used to cook six-star dishes.

According to True Monarch Yaoyue Zhuyang, this magic weapon can also gradually improve the quality of the spiritual field, and the products grown from it can subtly transform a person's physical qualities.

Yunxiu tried it and found that what was said was true.

However, it didn't have much effect on strengthening herself, probably because her physique was already high enough. On the other hand, Sugar, Xiangling, and the others all saw significant improvements. Yunxiu's most direct feeling was that it was much easier to rank up.

We used to play two or three games together, and after an hour or two of ranking up, we would get tired. Now, we often play until late at night, chat until morning, and then have a lively breakfast together before resting. Occasionally, we can even play one early game before resting together.

Yunxiu couldn't help but sigh, realizing that what they were actually building was this very yang...

After taking a bath and having a few drinks, the group went back to their rooms to sleep. Xiangling initially pretended to be coy and asked Yunxiu to be careful not to disturb Shenhe's messages, but she was quickly engrossed in her own ranking match.

What a day full of energy!

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

I got up early, tiptoed out of bed, quietly left a note for Xiangling, and went out to the other side of the demiplane. I saw that Shen He was already prepared and was staring at a strange little cat in the spirit field at the door of the room.

Touch touch~ Touch touch~

Shen He reached out and touched the peculiar blue cat. Seeing this strange little cat there, Yun Xiu couldn't help but reach out and touch it too, but the cat bit her and quickly ran away.

I'll go back right now and have Xiangling develop the cat treats!

"Where did this cat come from?" Yunxiu asked curiously.

"She was right at the door when I left this morning," Shen He said calmly. "Is it because you can't keep her? I'll go ask my master for help..."

"No, no, it's not that bad. If you like them, you can stay." Yunxiu waved her hand. Keeping a few cats in this place is a kind of ecological balance...

The two left some food for the kitten and left. As soon as they stepped outside, they encountered the Thousand Rock Army soldiers who came to greet them.

Soon, guided by the leader, the two arrived at the Qunyu Pavilion.

Before even entering, I saw Tsukihime and a fox-eared woman standing under the turret, talking to Ningguang.

"Lord Fox Palace, this is the Return Machine that we built together, and it will also include a part of your Inazuma."

"I wonder how powerful this is, and whether it can deal with the demonic beasts over at Heguan..."

"We've already conducted some tests in the Layered Rock Abyss, and it's more than capable of dealing with monsters that require a powerful 'Genius' to handle," Ningguang said with a smile. "As for whether we can deal with even stronger ones, that will probably depend on our next battle."

"That's exactly why I came here..."

Chapter 108: Chess Game Decides the Fate of the World (Second Update on Sunday!)

"What are you talking about?"

Yunxiu stepped forward and looked at the group carefully. She said respectfully, "This must be Lord Huzhaigong. Yueji and I have talked about you many times."

Fox Palace seemed much more reliable than Yunxiu had imagined. Perhaps it was because Yae no Miko seemed so unreliable that Fox Palace appeared much more kind and gentle in comparison.

She was dressed in a rather solemn shrine maiden's outfit, and behind her floated a peculiar magical artifact. It was not the Kagura no Manjushri's true essence, but a strange mirror. If you looked closely, you could even see all sorts of distorted illusions in the mirror.

But Yunxiu was certain that this was not the legendary "Yata Mirror," for a very simple reason: he saw strange Bagua runes and rock element marks on the back of the mirror!

"Yunxiu~! Right? The Emperor has already mentioned you to me!" Fox Palace looked at Yunxiu with a smile, and when he noticed that she was staring at his magic weapon, he said seriously, "This is something that the Emperor gave to me when I came to Liyue with Shadow to study during the Demon God War, in order to celebrate my breakthrough to the Familiar level."

So it was a magical artifact created by the Emperor. No wonder the Fox Palace kept showing it off; it seems they were also using the Emperor to build their own reputation...
