Chapter 341: Mu Yang: The Dragon King is a treasure from head to toe
【The Tsaritsa: "For us, this is also a good thing. It is clearly impossible for Apep to become one of our own."
"They are even our enemy. Under such circumstances, killing Apep seems quite logical."
Asmoday: "What I am most concerned about now is what benefits killing Apep will bring to Mu Yang."
Raiden Makoto: "I hope there will be some good news."
Azhdaha: "I, for one, do not hope so. After all, I am also a Dragon King. If the death of a Dragon King is a good thing for the continent of Teyvat, then I wouldn't know how to conduct myself."
Mu Yang: "Apep is dead, but I haven't increased my own authority. I feel that as long as I want to, I can give birth to a new Dragon King.
It's just that this might consume a massive amount of energy from the continent of Teyvat."
Asmoday: "If it's giving birth to a new Dragon King, that seems to be a good thing too. After all, the potential of a Dragon King is much stronger than that of an Archon."
Mu Yang: "I think so too, but I want to see if I can strip away more authority.
After all, the authority of the Seven Archons also comes from the Dragon Kings. If more authority can be stripped away, it would be a good thing for us.
Especially for Nahida; if she can obtain more Dendro authority, Nahida's strength will also be able to make more progress."
Nahida: "Actually, it's not needed. While Dendro authority is important to me, it is not as important as one might imagine. I usually use the authority of dreams more."
Mu Yang: "It's just a pity that in my memory, there doesn't seem to be a legendary Pokémon that has both Grass and Dragon elements.
Wait, I have an idea."】
As Apep was hacked into two by Mu Yang, even with Apep's vitality, it had completely lost its life force at this moment.
But even in death, Apep's body still possessed dense Dendro elemental energy.
Mu Yang stretched out his palm, collected Apep's authority into his hand, and then, through his efforts, it turned into a stone slate.
"This is..." Nahida looked at Mu Yang, full of confusion.
"You can think of it as a Dendro stone slate.
It's just like a Gnosis, but much more powerful than a Gnosis.
A Gnosis can be treated as a large-sized Vision, increasing the speed of elemental charging, and at the same time, it can also serve as the authority of the Seven Archons.
For second-generation Archons like you, it might still have a use, but for Archons like Morax, Barbatos, or even Beelzebul, while a Gnosis can certainly increase some combat power, it can be considered dispensable.
But this stone slate is different. Holding this Dendro stone slate, your Dendro power can be increased by at least double. This elemental energy will also be inexhaustible, and at the same time, the Dendro elemental energy on the continent of Teyvat will almost be unable to harm you.
After all, this is one of the most primordial powers.
Previously, when Raiden Ei fought the Electro Dragon King, her Electro element found it very difficult to harm the Electro Dragon King.
If she were facing a Dragon King of another element, even if its strength were similar to the Electro Dragon King, Raiden Ei would have the ability to face or even defeat the opponent." Mu Yang talked eloquently while holding the stone slate.
"But if that's the case, will there be no Dendro Dragon King in the future?" Nahida didn't have much desire for the stone slate.
Just like the Gnosis back then, she said she would throw it away as soon as she got it.
Just as she didn't take the Dendro Archon's Gnosis to heart, Nahida didn't have any special longing for the current Dendro stone slate either.
"No, there will still be a Dendro Dragon King born, it's just that after the opponent is born, its strength..." Mu Yang shook his head slightly, he shook the stone slate in his hand and said softly: "This stone slate will be of quite a bit of help to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata."
To be fair, at first, Mu Yang wouldn't have thought about rubbing out a Dendro stone slate.
If this portion of Dendro origin were allowed to combine with the future newborn Dendro Dragon King, it would definitely grow into a powerful dragon in the future.
But the situation is different now. The future Dendro Dragon King will still be born, but the future Dendro Dragon King might lose the vast majority of its power, and by then, its strength will likely only be comparable to an ordinary Archon.
But in Mu Yang's view, this is completely fine.
The Dendro Dragon King can just slowly cultivate and improve its strength on its own later.
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is his woman, and every time she needs to accumulate a massive amount of divine power before she can become stronger.
This also makes Mu Yang feel unfulfilled many times; he hasn't even properly experienced the "old tree coiling roots."
She would even directly turn into the appearance of a child, which Mu Yang expressed he had had enough of. But now, this stone slate has directly become a cheat for Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, and from now on, it will also become the source of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's divine power.
Mu Yang felt a bit excited thinking about it.
"So that's how it is." A look of realization appeared on Nahida's face.
Her relationship with Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is excellent; if this stone slate is beneficial to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, Nahida is naturally happy to see it.
After all, for Nahida, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is a sister, a mother, and possibly her own past life.
Mu Yang then stretched out his hand again, and a special ball of light fell into Mu Yang's hand: "This is the Forbidden Knowledge.
Apep is still quite formidable; it actually digested King Deshret directly, leaving only the Forbidden Knowledge in its body."
"Digested an Archon? Is this what it means to be a Dragon King?" Nahida also revealed a look of shock upon hearing this.
They knew before that Apep had swallowed King Deshret's corpse, but they hadn't expected that King Deshret's corpse had actually been digested now.
One must know that King Deshret was, at the very least, a famous Archon, and among all the Archons on the continent of Teyvat, King Deshret was definitely one of the top-tier ones.
And yet, now, he didn't even deserve to have his corpse left behind.
But thinking about it carefully, it is understandable.
After all, if Apep didn't digest King Deshret's corpse, how could it study the Forbidden Knowledge? Do not ever think that Apep is a benevolent dragon.
Since it swallowed King Deshret's corpse, Apep wouldn't possibly leave King Deshret with an intact body.
Everything was for its own benefit.
"Hmm, but I got what I wanted. This Forbidden Knowledge is hundreds of times more than the Forbidden Knowledge I previously obtained from Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
I hope that inside this, there are things I need." Mu Yang's gaze flickered; if he found interesting things inside, Mu Yang wouldn't mind integrating these things into the continent of Teyvat.
Although even if some rules were integrated, the continent of Teyvat couldn't become stronger overnight.
But Mu Yang believes that the continent of Teyvat has a glorious future.
"Hundreds of times?" Nahida was also full of shock upon hearing this.
That previous Forbidden Knowledge directly caused Greater Lord Rukkhadevata to fall.
Now there is hundreds of times more Forbidden Knowledge; if it leaked, wouldn't Greater Lord Rukkhadevata have to die hundreds of times?
"Is Apep that formidable? Stronger than Greater Lord Rukkhadevata by this much?" Nahida asked, full of confusion.
Although Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is not particularly good at fighting, Nahida still has a lot of confidence in Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
The other party is, after all, the incarnation of the Irminsul.
Although fighting is not what Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is good at, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's strength is still quite good. At the very least, Nahida doesn't think she is a match for Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
"Don't forget, at the beginning, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata consumed a massive amount of divine power to resist and eliminate the Forbidden Knowledge; otherwise, she wouldn't have become like that." Mu Yang reminded Nahida.
Nahida was also stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
She had indeed forgotten this point. After all, she had always been in the appearance of a child, which also made Nahida subconsciously think that Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was originally like this.
"However, Apep's corpse is quite good; quite a few good materials can be stripped from it." Mu Yang came to the side of Apep's corpse and began a round of hacking and slashing, cutting down some of Apep's good materials.
"Nahida, I'll make a treasure for you too when the time comes. Shall I make it into a catalyst?" Mu Yang asked Nahida while collecting materials.
"A catalyst? Actually, my A Thousand Floating Dreams is also quite good." Nahida took out a catalyst that looked like a night pot and said softly.
This was something she had when she was born, and it was also left to her by Greater Lord Rukkhadevata. Nahida was also very satisfied with A Thousand Floating Dreams.
"I'll make you a better one when the time comes." Mu Yang glanced at Nahida and said softly: "Although A Thousand Floating Dreams is easy to use, I have confidence that the treasure will be better than A Thousand Floating Dreams."
【Lumine: "Weapons, I want one too! Pull out all the scales and teeth of the opponent, and the bones too; these things are also worth a fortune!"
Venti: "Ehe, this Apep is really a treasure from head to toe!
Mu Yang, you should collect more materials too. If you miss a Dendro Dragon King like Apep, it will be hard to have a second one in the future."
Raiden Ei: "The Electro Dragon King is mine!"
Seeing the scene of Mu Yang killing Apep, Raiden Ei was also itching to act.
As for the Pyro Dragon King and Cryo Dragon King or whatever, Raiden Ei didn't know where they were for the time being, and besides, the other party might not necessarily be the first-generation Dragon King.
And that Electro Dragon King is the target Raiden Ei wants to eliminate.
Raiden Ei feels that as long as she can kill the Electro Dragon King, it will have immense benefits for her growth.
Once her strength advances further, she will go and slay the Electro Dragon King!
Mu Yang: "Can do. These Dragon Kings are really treasures from head to toe. I don't know when the new Dendro Dragon King will be born."】
