"This is..." His heart skipped a beat, and Kunjun subconsciously reached out and pressed on the stone tablet, activating his ability.

"Well……"

"Brother Kun, what's wrong?" Zhongli's voice came from behind.

“It’s okay!” Kunjun gently let go of his hand, blinked his eyes, and smiled at Zhongli: “I’m just a little dizzy.”

At the same time, Yu Qi on the other side searched around the ancient tree and soon found the clue he was looking for.

"Are these the miners' footprints?"

Following the direction of the footprints, he gradually bypassed the ancient tree and came to the cliff behind him. A huge cave entrance suddenly appeared in front of him. Yu Qi could vaguely see the figures of miners lying in twos and threes.

"This is..." With a look of joy, Yu Qi turned around and shouted to the other side of the ancient tree: "Mr. Zhongli, come this way, I found someone!"

“Here it comes… poof!”

The sudden sound of vomiting blood made Yu Qi's heart tremble. He subconsciously took a step forward and rushed to the front of the ancient tree, and then...

Zhongli, whose chest was pierced by Kunjun's arm from behind, appeared in front of Yu Qi.

"How can it be?!!"

"Puff~ Cough, cough, cough, cough..." A mouthful of blood containing the essence of Xuanyan spurted out. Zhongli lowered his head, looking at the arm that pierced his heart in a daze.

It was a somewhat rough palm, with light calluses on the base of the palm and the joints. It was obvious that the owner of the palm often had to do some rough work that required a lot of effort.

For example... blacksmithing!

His eyes fell on his palm. Zhongli stared at the crescent-shaped "weapon" tightly held in Kunjun's hand. The "weapon" as bright as gold was baptized by the blood of the gods. At this moment, it seemed to be shining like a treasure, attracting everyone's attention.

The power from the old friend is flowing through it. It is the power of the King of Rock Dragons, the authority of the original ancient dragon...

"Haha, hahahahahahaha..." Hoarse, crazy, containing emotions that are difficult to describe in words, the low and vicissitudes of life laughter sounded from behind Zhongli.

"Morax, how about it? Do you like the gift I prepared for you?" Kunjun's face no longer had the previous kindness and simplicity, but instead became extremely gloomy and crazy.

Slowly turning his palm, the crescent-shaped 'sharp knife' held tightly in Kunjun's hand easily cut open the chest of the Rock God. The flesh, bones, and internal organs were all turned into minced meat under his strength.

"Painful? Hahaha, yes, that's it!" After a wild laugh, Kunjun's face turned extremely angry: "But, how can the pain you feel compare to the torture I have endured for thousands of years!"

"In countless dark days and nights, I swore, I cursed... I must make you, and everyone in Liyue, feel the same heart-wrenching pain that I felt!"

"Puff~" Another mouthful of blood spurted out, Zhongli tried to stand up straight, and said a somewhat unfamiliar name: "Ruo Tuo, why?!"

His tone remained calm, as if he was not the one who was injured, but Yu Qi could clearly hear the shock and disbelief contained in it.

"Ruotu?" Hearing the name Zhongli said, Yu Qi was stunned for a moment, and instantly recalled the "Ruotu Dragon King" that Lei Dianzhen had mentioned to him before.

"Nandao said..." Looking up at Kunjun in horror, Yu Qi suddenly realized that all the questions he had along the way were answered.

"Haha, why?" With a sneer, Kunjun's words became a little hazy: "You want to ask why you didn't notice me before? You only felt the breath of that coward from this mortal body, right?"

“Hahaha, then I have to thank you very much for your help!” As he spoke, wisps of black mist dissipated, gradually submerging Kunjun's figure, turning him into a look that Yu Qi found extremely familiar.

"If you hadn't forced me to take those poisons a few days ago, how could I have obtained this memory that also came from the earth and grabbed this power that does not belong to Teyvat from it."

"To you, so-called memory is just memory, but to me, memory is power!"

The black mist spread along Kunjun's arm towards Zhongli's body. In just an instant, half of Zhongli's body was dyed black.

"Thanks to it, I was able to successfully separate myself from my body and escape from that dark prison!"

"Haha, if I didn't have this kind of power, how could I have suppressed that cowardly traitor, how could I have arranged all this, tricked you here, and let you experience everything I experienced back then!"

“Hahahaha…” The laughter became more and more crazy, but Yu Qi vaguely saw a few tears sliding down Kunjun’s face: “Wake up, Morax, everything you are experiencing now is all your own fault!”

Roaring angrily, King Ruotu raised his other hand, holding a weapon with a dazzling golden color in his hand, and pointed it at the neck of the motionless Zhongli, as if he was about to chop it off.

"Stop!" Seeing that Ruotu Dragon King was about to continue attacking Zhongli, Yu Qi's expression changed involuntarily. He shouted loudly, and then attacked him without hesitation.

With a flash of green light, Kunjun felt the world before his eyes change, transforming into a vast ancient wilderness. Countless dragon lizards were roaring and roaming between heaven and earth, and he himself had regained his majestic ancient dragon body.

"..." A complicated expression appeared on his face, and then the 'Ryota Dragon King' roared angrily: "You are just an ant, how dare you tease me like this!"

A terrifying aura gushed out from the body of the Dragon King Ruota, and the surrounding illusion was crushed into nothingness in an instant.

The world before his eyes returned to the South Heaven Gate. The Dragon King Ruotu looked down at his arm, and drops of blood dripped down, carrying the hazy black rock glow, which seemed particularly sacred.

Looking up at Yu Qi who was carefully supporting Zhong Li not far away, Ruotu Dragon King couldn't help but sneer: "I thought it was just an ant, but I didn't expect that I was wrong. It turned out to be a mouse that was just born not long ago!"

"..." Not paying attention to the malicious words of Ruota Dragon King, Yu Qi carefully supported Zhongli and kept trying to use the power of water element to recover his injuries and his own broken wrist.

Just now, for fear of hurting Zhongli who was already seriously injured, Yu Qi could only choose the power of "Dream" with the least destructive power.

However, he had never expected that even if he used all his strength in the power of illusion, it could only confuse the Dragon King Ruota for a few seconds, and then an extremely terrifying power erupted from his body.

If he hadn't been quick to rescue Zhongli first, he would probably be even more injured. Even so, Yu Qi paid the price of a broken arm and impacted internal organs.

Not paying much attention to his injuries, Yu Qi looked at Zhongli and was shocked to find that his entire heart had been minced into pieces, with blood, flesh and bones mixed together. Some dark black mist was attached to the wound, preventing the healing effect of the water element.

"Mr. Zhongli, are you okay?" Yu Qi couldn't help but ask with some concern. As he spoke, he quickly took out the "Blood Jade Pill" that he had just refined in the morning from the inventory and stuffed it into Zhongli's mouth.

Although I don’t know whether the Blood Jade Pill is useful to gods, I can only give it a try.

If that doesn't work, Yu Qi still has a 'full pill' in his hand!

After taking the 'Blood Jade Pill', Zhongli's complexion improved visibly, but the wound on his heart showed no signs of healing. As the blood continued to flow, Zhongli's complexion gradually turned pale again.

"This, this..." Looking at Zhongli's increasingly worse condition in panic, Yu Qi hurriedly prepared to take out the "full medicine". Now was not the time to be frugal.

However, Zhongli suddenly raised his hand to stop him and said softly: "No need to be so troublesome, cough, cough cough..."

"Yes, Yuan Yang Pill? As long as the Yang Qi dispels the black fog on my body, I will be able to recover!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." After a pause, Yu Qi instantly took out a whole bottle of Yuan Yang Dan. Just as he was about to give it to Zhong Li, a black shadow flashed by, and Yu Qi instantly felt his hands were empty.

“Haha, don’t you think I’m too much of a nobody?” With a sneer, the Dragon King Ruota glanced at the small magnetic bottle in his hand, and then suddenly exerted force to crush it and the pills in the bottle into powder: “You want to help Morax recover from his injuries right under my nose... What!”

"Good opportunity!" With a flash of light in his eyes, Zhongli saw the action of Ruota Dragon King crushing the Yuanyang Pill. He straightened his hunched body, stepped forward in a flash, and slapped Ruota Dragon King on the body with one palm.

"Bang~" the black earthenware jar broke, and the black liquid splashed all over the Ruota Dragon King. Then, a bone-chilling breath burst out, causing Yu Qi on the side to shiver.

"Ha~" He subconsciously exhaled a breath of hot air. Before Yu Qi could make any move, a burst of hot breath of flowing gold and rhenium exploded from the body of the Ruota Dragon King over there. Between the alternation of cold and heat, a mysterious power was born.

"Ah~~~" Holding his head tightly, the Dragon King Rāshtra roared in pain. The ground beside him rolled as if it was boiling liquid.

Fire, thunder, ice, and torrents, the four elemental forces emerged alternately, ravaging the land around the Dragon King Ryota.

The black fog was swirling, obscuring the view, and Zhongli retreated and returned to Yu Qi's side.

"Mr. Zhongli, this, this is..." Yu Qi stared blankly at the situation in front of him that had completely changed in an instant. He was completely unable to recover and stared at Zhongli blankly: "What's going on? Are you okay?"

"Well~ I can't say that I'm okay!" Reaching out and taking out a porcelain bottle, Zhongli poured all of the more than ten Yuanyang Pills in it onto the wound on his heart.

"Zizi~" The moment the Yuan Yang Pill touched the black mist on the wound, it made a sizzling sound, as if water droplets were splashing into hot oil.

His face was calm, as if he didn't feel the burning heat from the wound that seemed to burn his flesh and blood. Zhongli stared at Ruota not far away and explained in a deep voice.

"At the beginning, I had already discovered that Kunjun was Ruota, so I took the initiative to find him for a conversation and invited him to go with me."

Recalling the previous situation, Yu Qi nodded suddenly. If that was the case, then it made sense.

"During the subsequent journey, through communication with Kunjun, I gradually determined his situation. He was a soul fragment split from Ruotu's original consciousness, carrying all the memories he had lost due to wear and tear. He was the embodiment of Ruotu's kindness."

At this point, Zhongli couldn't help but sighed: "And before in the mining area, I unexpectedly felt another breath that also belonged to Ruotu. It was the breath of the incarnation of Ruotu's evil thoughts. From this, I was able to determine Ruotu's current situation."

"I originally thought that Ruotuo had a serious problem with his condition, and he instinctively separated himself into this incarnation and wanted to ask me for help."

"That's why you took the initiative to participate in this matter, for the purpose of..."

“Yes.” Nodding, Zhongli lowered his eyes, still staring at the struggling and roaring figure of Ruoto, and said: “I originally wanted to take this opportunity to help Ruoto completely solve his own problems and return to normal.”

"But, even I didn't expect that Ruotuo's good thoughts and evil thoughts were not completely separated, but were housed together in one person's body."

"Moreover, the power of evil thoughts is far stronger than good thoughts. Relying on the power he gained from the memories of another land, he planned and controlled everything that happened before."

"He kidnapped the miners, created signs of wanting to break the seal, and then erased Kunjun's memories of the incident. After releasing his good thoughts, he fell into a deep sleep, allowing Kunjun to meet us and act together, in order to lead me to the Fulong Tree, and then..."

After a pause, Zhongli shook his head and said, "It is really mysterious. Although the black fog looks evil, its essence is so sacred that even I have not found any trace of evil thoughts under its cover."

"But according to what you said, when did the evil thoughts of Ruotu Dragon King awaken?" Frowning, Yu Qi looked at Zhongli's wound that had begun to slowly recover, and asked in confusion: "If it was too early, you would definitely have discovered it."

"But if I wake up too late, I might not be able to find a chance to seriously injure you!"

"..." Zhongli was silent for a moment. Finally, his eyes fell on the stone town under the Fulong tree not far away: "Maybe, he woke up when he touched this stone tablet!"

Looking quietly at Zhongli with a complicated expression, Yu Qi nodded and said nothing more.

At the same time as the two were talking, some miraculous changes also took place on the other side, on the body of the Rādhāra Dragon King, who was shrouded in black fog.

"No, it shouldn't be like this!"

"Don't even think about influencing me, you coward!"

"No, you are wrong. I have never been a coward. It is you who is too self-righteous and refuses to accept your true self." The gentle and peaceful voice should sound like 'Kunjun', that is, the kind voice of the Dragon King Ruota.

"Haha, your true self? I am the king of the earth, how can I coexist with ants!" The voice of evil thoughts became more and more manic, and the elemental forces raging around it became more and more chaotic.

"You must remember that I was the one who created you. You are just the smallest part of my will. You should never resist me!"

"Separation? No, I prefer to call it 'awake'." Kunjun's voice became calmer and calmer, as if he recalled more and more distant memories, and his voice gradually became more vicissitudes of life.

"I am the remnant of the good nature of the Dragon King Ruotuo. I represent the ambition of the contract, the lofty heart, and the peaceful will to coexist with others."

"Impossible! It was clearly me who separated your consciousness!" As if he understood something, the evil words gradually became low, with a terrifying anger brewing faintly.

"I am the Dragon King Ruotu, a creature created by elemental crystals. I carry the power and memories of the earth. I live as long as the mountains and seas. I am definitely not an ally of ants!"

"Morax is not an ant!!"

"The god of ants is nothing but an ant..." Halfway through his words, the evil thoughts of 'Lotus Dragon King' seemed to come to his senses and roared, "Are you deliberately distracting me? Do you want to drive me out of this body? No, you are wishful thinking. You should be the one to leave!"

"You are too arrogant!"

Kunjun was talking to himself as if he was having a conversation with someone. His silhouette became blurred, black fog rolled up, and then suddenly split into two!

"Hmm~" Staggering back two steps, 'Kunjun' waved his hand to disperse the black mist on his body, and stood up with a pale expression: "Ahem... What a terrible nightmare!"

As he said this, he turned to look at Zhongli and Yu Qi who were not far away and smiled slightly: "You two, I'm back!"

His eyes fell on the wound on Zhongli's chest, and a guilty look appeared on Kunjun's face: "I'm sorry, old friend, I didn't think of Him in advance, otherwise, I wouldn't have let you get hurt like this."

"It's not your fault. After all, even I didn't know of His existence." Shaking his head, Zhongli looked at Kunjun and smiled with great joy: "Besides, meeting an old friend is a happy thing in itself."

"Hehe~" Just when two old friends who had not seen each other for a long time were chatting happily, another gloomy voice suddenly sounded not far away, attracting everyone's attention.

With a wave of his hand, the black fog around him also dispersed, and the evil spirit of "Ruotu Dragon King" revealed his figure. What surprised Yu Qi was that it turned out to be a short blue-haired girl.

Ignoring Yu Qi's strange look, Ruo Tuo Dragon King stared at Zhong Li with his eyes spitting fire: "It's like this again, it's like this again!"

"Morax, you attacked me like this a thousand years ago and sealed me underground. And a thousand years later, you are doing this again...!"

"..." Looking at the furious evil thoughts of the 'Lotus King', Zhongli fell silent for the first time in a long time, as if he didn't know how to answer!

On the contrary, Kunjun on the side shook his head, took a step forward, looked at his evil thoughts and said: "This is probably our fate, Ruota... No, it should be "I"! After all, we are just lives born in this world, and we cannot defy the destined fate!"

"Fate? Fate! Fate!! Hahahaha!" Muttering this word, the evil mind of 'Lotus Dragon King' couldn't help but sneer loudly: "You coward, what else can you do except using this excuse to escape!"

"You mean fate?!" His eyes swept across the cave entrance not far behind Yu Qi and the others, and the 'Ryota Dragon King' roared with evil thoughts: "Then today, I will personally smash fate and let you know that I am the master of this world!"

Hearing this, Yu Qi and the others' expressions tensed up, and they instantly looked at the evil thoughts of the 'Ruotu Dragon King' in front of them with vigilance. However, what they waited for was not an attack from the evil thoughts, but a terrifying suction force that suddenly rolled up from behind.

Yu Qi was unable to react and stumbled. Before he could regain his footing, his body involuntarily flew towards the cave behind him and was swallowed by darkness.

Before the last ray of light disappeared, Yu Qi vaguely saw the figures of Zhongli and Kunjun, who also fell into the cave one after another...

"It's over!" This was the last thought in his mind before he was swallowed by darkness.
