I'm a male god in Liyue

After Xiangling reluctantly left, Xia Zhi closed the kitchen door and applied an effect to the entire kitchen that slowed down the flow of time by ten times.

In this way, one hour outside can feel like ten hours inside the kitchen.

An afternoon outside is enough time for him to finish making 500 large cakes.

--

After dinner, Xia Zhi played two rounds of mahjong with the Dragon King, then took a shower and returned to his room.

I'm really tired after a busy afternoon.

Xia Zhi lay on the bed, not wanting to move at all.

He wasn't physically tired.

With his current attribute values, this amount of work shouldn't tire him out.

He mainly felt mentally exhausted.

Making cakes feels completely different from cooking regular meals.

He needs to devote himself wholeheartedly to handling every detail and striving for perfection in every aspect.

Xia Zhi turned over and suddenly let out a long sigh.

Because his focused state of mind in the afternoon is very similar to that of Funina when she was playing a deity.

He only had one afternoon, or even if he took into account the effect of the time flow slowing down tenfold, it would still only be ten afternoons.

If we calculate an afternoon as 6 hours, that's equivalent to 2.5 days.

Xia Zhi herself felt very uncomfortable after only two and a half days of maintaining this state.

It's hard to imagine what her mental state was like at the end, considering that Furnessa maintained this state for five hundred years.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt sorry for her.

Xia Zhi took out the [Tears of the Goddess] and gently held it in his hand.

Why put on such a painstaking performance? Isn't the best performance simply becoming the role you want to play?

Suddenly, Ji felt a pang of longing for Funina.

Xia Zhi took out the [Dream Pillow], hugged the large pillow, and pressed her face against it, feeling very comfortable.

The pillow's surface emitted a fragrance imbued with the power of dreams, and Xia Zhi felt a wave of drowsiness slowly creeping over her.

He yawned, hugged his pillow, and closed his eyes.

I hope I'll dream about Funina tonight...

With these thoughts in mind, Xia Zhi soon fell asleep.

--

next moment.

Xia Zhi opened his eyes and found himself in the midst of a blizzard.

In the distance stands a massive, frigid nail.

It looks familiar.

Xia Zhi immediately remembered.

It was a strange object that existed on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.

It was under its influence that Dulin became weak and lucid, and ultimately willingly died under Dvalin's sharp teeth.

"So, this time you've entered Dulin's special dream again?"

Xia Zhi stood in the wind and snow, feeling a bit cold. He looked around but couldn't see anyone.

“There are deep red stones on the ground. It seems that this is the snow mountain after Dulin died.”

Xia Zhi walked over, picked up a piece of [Crimson Stone], crushed it in his hand, and his body was immediately enveloped by a warm feeling.

This is a blessing from the dragon Durin.

Xia Zhi unfurled his Radiant Wings and took flight from the snow.

When he flew to a very high position, he saw a huge dragon corpse that had turned into a skeleton.

That must be the corpse of the dragon Durin.

Xia Zhi fell towards the corpse.

It landed on its skull.

It contains a very beautiful piece of crimson chalcedony.

Xia Zhi did not retrieve the crimson crystal.

"It's strange. Since Dulin is already dead, why would it dream about the environment after it died?"

He lowered his head in thought.

"Could it be that it's not completely asleep like my cousin, unaware of what's happening around it, but rather in a semi-conscious state?"

Just then, Xia Zhi suddenly heard a faint sound coming from the wind and snow.

"Boom."

Another sound.

"Boom."

It was clearly not his imagination.

Xia Zhi found the direction from which the sound came and flew towards it.

He then discovered that the target location was actually the chest area of ​​Dulin's enormous skeleton.

After he landed.

He finally saw it.

What appeared before him was a huge, vibrant heart that was still beating tenaciously and slowly.

The enormous heart, covered with fine black lines, throbbed stubbornly before Xia Zhi's eyes.

So this is the real situation of Dulin.

It was already dead, its body had rotted into a skeleton, but it wasn't completely dead yet. Only a broken heart remained, enveloping its soul, as it lingered on this snow-capped mountain.

Even so, it still lives.

Like a dangerous bomb, it was forgotten in this deserted place.

Who knows, it might explode on its own one day, or be used by someone with ulterior motives to cause another terrifying dragon disaster like the one five hundred years ago.

That's a problem too...

Xia Zhi remembered that Diona's hometown, Qingquan Town, was located at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

If such a thing were to happen, her hometown would likely be the first to be affected.

Mingyun Town and Wangshu Inn are not far from the snow mountain, so they are easily accessible.

It would be best to find a way to solve this problem permanently.

The simplest and most brutal method is naturally to remove its heart, causing it to disappear from this continent.

With Xia Zhi's current strength, it would be very easy for her to do this.

But Xia Zhi didn't want to do that.

Because in the previous special dream of Dulin, he saw the entire process of Dulin's birth and death.

He knew that Dulin was not a truly wicked dragon.

Its story is full of drama.

Its ending was a tragedy.

If we could go back in time and give it a second chance, it would probably have a different ending, right?

Five hundred years.

Dulin has been trapped under the snow-capped mountain for so long.

It was the same time that Sun Wukong was imprisoned under the Five Finger Mountain.

He also happened to have a platinum item in his hand: the Golden Hoop.

What a coincidence... why not give it a try?

Xia Zhi quietly looked at the vibrant heart, observing its pacing frequency.

After a few minutes.

He reached out and gently placed his hand on the heart, uttering a greeting in the language of the monster species.

He didn't originally know the monster language, but a couple of days ago he used the [Temporary Certificate] and [Stealing] to learn the skill from Shen He. So now he doesn't need to go through the trouble of using the [Temporary Certificate] to write [A person proficient in the monster language] on it and then wearing it, like he did in Dulin's dream last time.
