Start with Star Iron and the connection will become stronger

"No, I want it."

Fan Yu calmly rejected Jiujo Sara's reminder.

The latter opened her eyes wide, and even refuted in a belligerent tone just for the sake of refuting. She wanted to say something, but found that her eyes suddenly blurred.

Fan Yu brought her figure and moved at high speed to the center of the foggy area.

A giant frozen slime, its body covered in frost spikes, led a group of frost slimes in front of them, bounding towards the Golden Flower area to absorb its power. For elemental creatures like them, the current environment was simply paradise.

When Fan Yu and the others appeared before their eyes, disrupting their absorption of the surrounding energy, the giant frost slime's body swelled up, and a large amount of silver-white gas gushed out from its hard shell.

The still warm place suddenly became cold due to the freezing air released by the giant frost slime.

Kujo Sara felt as if his body was falling into an icy cellar, his face turning pale: "This is released by the Frost Slime..."

Before she finished her words of warning, she saw the katana in Fan Yu's other hand, and the lightning torrent brought by the Eye of Resonance God.

Snap, Snap.

Purple thunder surrounded the blade, emitting rounds of loud noises.

He pointed the lightning blade in his hand forward.

"Eh?"

The samurai's blade was now turned into a magic wand by him.

click!

Lightning struck the giant Frost Slime God, causing it to pause briefly. The several smaller Frost Slimes around it also froze completely in place.

The huge frost slime suddenly began to shrink, and the frost armor spikes on the surface of its body also shrank together. Influenced by it, the small frost slimes following it also shrank in its same way.

This action lasted for less than a second, and suddenly the body of the giant frost slime swelled up. Its body was shrouded by the surge of thunder and lightning, and the frost armor originally surrounding its skin softened.

But in contrast, the frost and freezing air originally released became even colder than before.

The frost slimes surrounding it made the same gesture, and the dew in the air began to condense.

The giant slime jumped around, thunder roared around, and a joyful mood was emanating.

Kujo Sara: "Superconductivity..."

"Hey!"

At the same time, Fan Yu slashed out with a knife.

The giant frost slime's body was split into two.

17. Hold Your Knife Tightly

The sudden slash was like lightning. By the time it came to its senses, the giant frost slime's body had disintegrated into a ball of broken ice.

Jiujo Sara stood there in a daze, and for a moment, the words he had originally intended to remind Fan Yu remained in his mouth.

The smaller slimes that had been surrounding the giant frost slime froze in their tracks, their bounding movements halted, as if a joyful dance had been abruptly interrupted. With their leader gone, they were unsure what to do next.

Only flashes of lightning remained in the field, crackling in the icy mist.

The blade of the samurai sword in Fan Yu's hand was engraved with several thundercloud patterns, and purple lightning burst out in two or seven directions at the front end of the blade, as if making the blade's light even sharper.

He did not stop, and swung his hands sharply at the group of frost slimes several times. The elemental reaction between the lightning and the frost mist made the frost slimes tremble on the spot as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

But before they could start to move, the physical cutting attack following the lightning had arrived. The continuous slashing and cutting were unavoidable, cutting their bodies into countless tiny energy fragments one by one.

Eventually, the elemental energy in the field returned to the atmosphere or was absorbed by the golden flowers derived from the earth veins, leaving only some slime condensate.

The cold frosty fog gradually dissipated.

Fan Yu glanced at Jiujo Sara: "The effect of superconductivity will indeed make the target more excited, but at the same time, the physical defense will also be weakened."

Kujo Sara: “…”

If he already knew, why did he seem so awkward in manipulating the Eye of God during their initial confrontation? Furthermore, this guy mentioned inheriting the Eye of God from someone else, yet it was as if he had anticipated what was happening.

But she didn't know.

Under the premise that Fan Yu's [Harmonious Bliss] has the ability to perceive the spectral biofield of living organisms, the biofield reactions of elemental life such as slime are, in a sense, all its actions are already in Fan Yu's eyes.

When the giant slime unfolded its frost armor, he could directly capture the opponent's life field with his naked eyes. A ball of ice element energy formed a fixed state and condensed together.

However, when Fan Yu used the power of thunder to hit the slime, the frost armor on the hardened surface of the frost slime would immediately soften and enter a high-speed flow reaction.

In that state, the Frost Slime was essentially no different from any other slime on Teyvat. A few sharp strikes were enough to sever its elemental form, then activate it, causing its elemental energy to rapidly dissipate within the earth until it vanished.

Overall, this was a battle without any suspense.

Looking ahead, Fan Yu also cast his gaze on the monster that emerged from the earth veins on the side of the frost slime.

Whoosh!

Thunder surrounded Fan Yu's feet, and he rushed forward in one step, slashing several times in the air with the blade in his hand.

The chaos dissipated along the lines of the slash, and there was a hint of thunder in the atmosphere.

The monsters' bodies were shattered into countless pieces by the sword's slashing blows, falling to the ground. Their bodies lasted only a few breaths before they were automatically absorbed by the golden flowers growing from the ground.

Fan Yu looked down at the purple thunder beneath his feet, amused. "The speed has increased by 2%... Can the elemental energy of the Eye of God have such an effect?"

His body is not as fragile as that of an ordinary adventurer. After going through several worlds and interacting with many [Connectors], the depth and feedback obtained from it have made his body functions reach the superhuman level.

And this, with the blessing of Teyvat's elemental energy, seems to be able to be "carried out"?

"The lightning element blesses the blade, making it even sharper!"

"Blessing activates the feet and sharpens their speed."

Fan Yu analyzed himself and cast his eyes on the nine-sara hanging around his waist: "How did you perform that spell, Miss Daitengu?"

Kujo Sora was startled: "?"

Is this man testing the effects of the Eye of God?

The application of the lightning element is actually similar to what the man said. It is an uncontrollable elemental energy. It cannot be guided as smoothly as water, nor can it burn continuously like flames, or be as solid as earth...

Her use of the element of thunder is mostly driven by external objects.

For example, the black feathers on her back, which are from the Daitengu bloodline, have the function of elemental conduction and can serve as the material for arrows that use thunder elements.

Although pure thunder elements can also be gathered into thunder arrows, their efficiency and stability are always not as good as Black Feather's, which only requires four simple steps of "drawing the bow and shooting the arrow", and there is no need to constantly consider the possibility of thunder getting out of control.

The lightning elemental spells she used remotely came from the application of her Tengu bloodline. After possessing the Eye of God, it seemed to have become an instinct for her to manipulate thunder.

Kujo Sara looked up at the man in front of her and saw a desire for knowledge in him.

However, she really didn't know how to explain the effects of her use to this person.

"Don't you want to answer?" Fan Yu asked doubtfully, without any anger on his face.

Kujo Sara: "No... I just don't know how to respond. The spell is the result of my Tengu bloodline, and the elemental power is just a transmission. I can't explain the specific principle, but the process I use is roughly a kind of using my own strength to pry the elements in the atmosphere."

After saying this, Kujo Sara himself was also stunned.

Originally a captive, she should now respond to this man with silence, using the means of using the elements as a bargaining chip.

She didn't know why she responded directly, the pressure brought by the other party's silence, and the reason why the other party helped Inazuma Castle eliminate these monsters?

Do not……

As a warrior, she knew very well that these monsters were the influence brought by the other party.

What really made her willing to respond was probably the emotions this guy unconsciously revealed, which showed no hostility towards her, right?

Even though she was just a wanted criminal, facing the vast earth vein power and these monsters, Kujo Sara had to admit that she needed the other party's goodwill to eliminate the threat outside Inazuma Castle.

With mixed emotions, Kujo Sara tactfully warned, "I don't recommend you resort to that method of fighting directly. Perhaps a better approach for you right now would be to hold your sword tightly!"

18 Spiral

Fan Yu was very satisfied with the effect.

As the surrounding environment became empty and clear, he retracted the raised samurai sword, and the thunder on it automatically dissipated.

For the test of the Eye of God, we have already formed a rough model based on the current experimental results.

Fan Yu sensed the physical strength consumed by mobilizing the elemental power in his body, and clenched his hands. Compared with the expected situation, the consumption was much less than he had imagined.

Of course, this statement is relative.

Given a certain total amount, this consumption wasn't much for Fan Yu, who had already received countless feedbacks. But for others, it was a different story.

For example, those who have just obtained the Eye of God and have not yet adapted to it, and the adventurer that Fan Yu met, are all like this.

Moreover, the Eye of God is not what Fan Yu said...

The reason why it is called the Eye of God is that there is a saying on the continent of Teyvat that is similar to "the original god who has not yet become a god". The "God" in the Eye of God refers to an unfinished God, not the expression in Brahma's mouth that implies that he has become a God.

Returning to reality, Fan Yu discovered a foggy area covered by the Golden Flower and the Revelation Flower derived from the original earth veins. Although the thick fog there had been dispelled, many half-grown buds about to bloom emerged from the ground.

Fan Yu lowered his head and looked at Jiu Tiao Sara, who was also staring ahead with a somewhat speechless look.

So many Hidden Gold Flowers and Revelation Flowers, and the monsters are already defeated. This is a windfall!

In most cases, we had to worry about facing the monsters, but now we have to worry about whether there is enough resin to water the flowers.

"Kujo Sara, you should know this." Fan Yu said.

"The flowers of hidden gold... If you have resin to water these flowers and make them bloom, you should be able to get a lot of Mora." Kujo Sara explained tactfully.

Fan Yu: "I see."

"As for the resin, the most common saying is that 'the silvery-white ancient trees and flowers are connected to the earth's veins, and the energy contained in the resin has the ability to clear the channels of these veins and refine the substances that are stagnant within them'!" Kujo Sara immediately added.

She had just explained how to obtain Mora from those golden flowers. The so-called resin, in a sense, was also the substance extracted from them.

After hearing this, Fan Yu nodded in understanding.

He thought of what this world said about the World Tree. In some realms, there were connections with branches of the World Tree rooted underground, and the World Tree was said to hold records closely related to all life on this planet.

If the principle of the Hidden Gold Flower and the Flower of Revelation is [download specific knowledge (Mora) through the World Tree's data] → [unlock through specific energy substances] → [final harvest]

That makes sense.

"Do you have it?" Kujo Sara asked hesitantly.

Fan Yu shook his head: "I don't have this. But... wait a moment."

As he spoke, Fan Yu dropped her figure to the ground.

He then raised his right hand, causing the sun emblem on the back of his hand to shine. As ripples began to appear, layers of shining light began to distort the surrounding space.

Kujo Sara's pupils shrank slightly: "Could it be..."

If what she had seen while unconscious wasn't an illusion, then the instant this man summoned a luminous object from that twisted node, it would cause the laws of the environment around the origin to collapse. Rivers would flow backwards in the sky, earthquakes would occur, violent storms would rage, and so on. It was the initiator of a catastrophe.

And in fact, it was just as she thought!

The moment the energy material of the [Star Core] appeared on the continent of Teyvat, the power of the earth veins located underground in the continent of Teyvat began to spread uncontrollably toward the land, forming a perfect compatibility with the Star Core.

However, due to the overly perfect compatibility, most of the energy in this area began to be drawn here. Some mountains, rivers, and even elemental creatures that originally needed that energy to maintain were all captured by its energy resonance and became its nutrients.

After the magic power in the river was extracted, it began to lose its correct direction. The mountains began to collapse like quicksand due to the extraction of the earth veins. Even the ground under our feet no longer had its original stability.

only--

Unlike what Kujo Sara had seen, a twisted elliptical passage appeared at the edge of the glowing object, much like the rumored abyssal spiral on the uninhabited island between Inazuma and Mond.

I only saw Fan Yu's figure stepping directly into it——

It began to surge along the spiral above, and his figure seemed to be sucked in and quickly swallowed up.

Under the gaze of Kujo Sara, Fan Yu's figure quickly disappeared.

"Just like that... gone?" Kujo Sara stared blankly ahead.

The devastation was overwhelming, and after the landslide, no life existed except hers. In such a desolate suburb, she felt an indescribable feeling.

The mountain that was pressing on her was gone just like that?

She had originally given up any hope of getting away from that man, but now it seemed that a new opportunity had emerged.

but……

It seemed very difficult to forcefully support the limbs whose veins had been severed by Fan Yu.

Kujo Sara subconsciously moved to the other side, and immediately felt pain in her body. She gritted her teeth, took advantage of this brief rest to recover her strength, and activated the magic of the Eye of God.
