In an instant, the surrounding air surged continuously, and under Jiang Yan’s pressure, these black-red strange energies obediently arrived in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If I don't scare you, you really think I’m a pushover?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Jiang Yan looked at the ball of black-red energy he had gathered, then looked at the black-red flower in the center of the barren land.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If the energy ball in Jiang Yan’s hand was the pollution brought by Forbidden Knowledge, then that flower should be the source of this pollution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It could only be said to be the source of this Withering Zone; the true source of pollution should be the Forbidden Knowledge attached to the Irminsul.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Walking forward, Jiang Yan used his hand, which was flashing with seven-colored light, to grab the flower that was continuously emitting black-red gas.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then, with a forceful tug, he pulled it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Snap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In an instant, black mist began to diffuse from the roots of the flower.

Why does this feeling feel exactly like gathering Archon energy?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Jiang Yan muttered to himself internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Jiang Yan gathered all the black-red energy in the vicinity, the surrounding vegetation seemed to have lost its constraints and returned to its lush, green state.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At the same time, a large Precious Chest emerged from the spot where the black flower had just been.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Jiang Yan’s eyes widened sharply!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Holy crap!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This... this, this, this!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It really is just like the mechanics in the game?!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Clearing a Withering Zone gives a chest?!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After opening this Precious Chest, Jiang Yan took the pitch-black sphere and headed toward Sumeru City.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, he didn't know how to deal with this thing, so it was better to hand it over to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata for research.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Jiang Yan actually didn't want to get involved in this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>There was a chest, so that was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For the people of Sumeru, for the peace of Liyue’s neighbor.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dealing with the Withering Zone in Sumeru.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He, Jiang Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is duty-bound!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Arriving at Sumeru City, Jiang Yan quickly found Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“What is it again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Greater Lord Rukkhadevata looked at the rushing Jiang Yan and asked helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She had truly been annoyed by Jiang Yan these past few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He would come over whenever she was busy, and never for anything important.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“This time it’s really urgent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Jiang Yan took out the black energy ball and handed it to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“This is...”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Greater Lord Rukkhadevata’s expression suddenly became grave.
