It was unclear if the abrasive powder was too hard, but this time, the alchemy took an unexpectedly long time.
While Yun Xu was refining the pill, a small accident occurred in the external landscape space.
The place where Yun Xu had set up the Slime's grave was on the island where the Dragon Pill was stored, and Lime had always stayed by his sister's side.
When he was hungry, he would run to lick the ground next to Osial, which was soaked in God's blood, or go to Yun Xu, who was refining pills, to absorb elements.
Once full, he would return and guard his sister's grave.
However, on this particular day, an accident suddenly occurred... "?"
Lime noticed his sister's grave suddenly moving, as if something was trying to burrow out from underneath.
He curiously leaned closer, and at that moment, the thing beneath the grave finally broke through the earth.
It was a thin red thread, like a flexible and tiny tentacle.
"!!!"
The thin thread noticed Lime's presence and immediately stretched towards him, piercing into Lime's body.
Lime was so frightened that he tried to escape, but the thread piercing his body was like a chain, tying him down. No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't escape far and was instead dragged back little by little.
Thus, Lime's body was squeezed and deformed by the immense dragging force, and he was slowly pulled underground... "Is the flame's power not enough? It seems from today onwards, I need to find a way to strengthen my compatibility with Martial Uncle Indarias, or find a new flame..."
Yun Xu muttered to himself, slowly placing the alchemy furnace back on the ground, and wearily raised his hand to wipe his forehead.
The furnace lid opened by itself, and a golden glowing pill slowly flew out.
Yun Xu beckoned, and after it flew over, he reached out and caught it, then sat on the grass, not wanting to get up.
"Shattering Illusions, Condensing Truth... Golden Light Traces the Origin, Illuminating the Pill Soul..."
Yun Xu recited the incantation weakly, golden light emanating from his eyes and shining on the pill.
[Four Elements Pill (4 Stars): After consumption, one can obtain Azhdaha's weight, the golden-haired Traveler's resistance to blows, Vanquisher of Evil's height advantage, and the white emergency food's appetite.]
The effects of the pill slowly appeared in Yun Xu's mind.
"Oh, oh, these four people each have their own specialties, which seems pretty good, similar to the previous Qilin Pill and Hair Dye Pill, and the grade is also a bit higher..."
"Eh, wait?"
Yun Xu subconsciously nodded his head, as the previous Qilin Pill also had similar effects, but he immediately realized something was wrong as soon as he finished speaking.
Azhdaha's weight... Vanquisher of Evil's height advantage... Paimon's appetite... the golden-haired Traveler's resistance to blows... it seems that besides the Traveler's resistance to blows, the other three are... a bit useless?
"Wait? Aren't you a four-star pill? And you can't be gilded? What's the point of giving these effects?"
"And where did the Vanquisher of Evil's height advantage come from?"
Yun Xu, realizing the situation, quickly grabbed the Four Elements Pill in his hand and questioned it.
But it was just a pill, unable to answer Yun Xu's questions.
"It seems I'll have to find someone to test the pill on. Anyway, besides the abrasive powder being tiring to file down, all the materials can be obtained through trade..."
Yun Xu thought to himself.
"Hehehe... the Traveler seems like a very good choice. After all, I already promised to share half with her..."
Soon, Yun Xu thought of a candidate for the pill testing.
"Hmm?"
However, at this moment, Yun Xu suddenly felt a disturbance in the surrounding elements.
The sun and moon cup was placed outside, and now the external landscape space could absorb elements from the outside world. In this situation, Yun Xu could feel all the absorbed elements converging towards another direction.
Yun Xu looked over in confusion, finding that the direction where the elements were converging was precisely the island he used to store the Dragon Pill.
"What's going on? Could it be that the nascent pill has come alive...?"
Yun Xu felt a little uneasy and quickly rushed over there.
Most of the converging elements were Electro elements, and countless thin electric arcs wandered around the island, somewhat similar to the Electro spirits of Inazuma.
Yun Xu dodged the Electro spirits and approached in confusion, but found that the Dragon Pill coiled on the ground had no abnormalities.
The problem area was in the center of the circle formed by the coiled Dragon Pill, where a large amount of Electro elements gathered, and the electric arcs wandering on the island all merged into it in the end.
"What is that...?"
Yun Xu looked at the Electro elements gathered in the center in confusion, with the phantom of an Electro Yaksha appearing behind him to help him block the electric arcs wandering around.
Just as Yun Xu was wondering, a large number of purple thin threads suddenly emerged from the center of the Electro mass, like flexible tentacles.
Seeing these thin threads, Yun Xu immediately confirmed that this thing was related to the surrounding Dragon Pill, as the surface of the Dragon Pill looked like it was composed of these fiber-like things.
Then, under Yun Xu's gaze, these purple thin threads absorbed all the surrounding Electro elements, causing the constantly wandering electric arcs to disappear.
Next, they began to rapidly weave in the air, centered around the final Electro mass.
Soon, a dragon-shaped creature was slowly woven from the fibers, its appearance more like a Dragonheir, but more slender, without wings.
It had sharp horns on its head, but unlike the immortal ancestor's Exuvia's dragon horns, it was a single sharp horn similar to a unicorn's.
Its appearance was like a stretched-out giant dragon, covered with purple scales, with fur on its back and dragon whiskers on both sides of its nose, but no wings on its back. It looked like a combination of a giant dragon and a Liyue dragon, but it had a sharp horn on its head surrounded by an Electro arc, like a lightning rod.
Its body was not large, only a little over two meters long, giving the impression that it was very young.
"Dragon, dragon...?"
"Dragonheir? Or...?"
Looking at the creature woven from fibers in front of him, Yun Xu was a bit stunned for a moment.
But those fibers were related to the Dragon Pill, so he quickly turned back to look at the Dragon Pill.
[Dragon Pill (Nascent Pill): A non-dragon who sincerely worships with the heart's essence blood of a loved one for three days can shed their mortal body and weave themselves into a dragon fetus with dragon fibers. A dragon who swallows its flesh and blood or this dragon fetus pill can evolve.]
"A non-dragon who sincerely... worships with the heart's essence blood of a loved one for three days? Can shed their mortal body? Weave themselves into a dragon fetus with dragon fibers?"
"Could it be that...?"
Seeing the detailed description of the Dragon Pill, Yun Xu immediately guessed a possibility.
He quickly ran to the side, arriving at the grave of Lime's sister, Rem.
Indeed, the grave was now empty, not a single drop of Slime condensate remained, and Lime was nowhere to be found, only a lonely volt locust wood planted there.
"My Slime... became a dragon fetus?"
Looking at the already dug-up Slime grave, Yun Xu scratched his head and looked at the creature that had just been woven from dragon fibers in the center of the area where the Dragon Pill was coiled.
It had characteristics of Teyvat creatures, but it had never appeared in Teyvat before...
