What exactly is the reason that makes Baizhu so eager to find that Lin Mo?

To actually head to the Chasm immediately after receiving her decree.

Ganyu thought for a while, couldn't figure it out, and finally returned to Yuehai Pavilion to continue handling affairs.

While Ganyu was handling things, Baizhu walked out of Liyue City and walked toward the Chasm.

On the other side.

In the Chasm.

Lin Mo, Yelan, and Zhi Qiong passed through the intricate mine tunnels and finally arrived at the end of this space.

The scene in front of them made them hold their breath. They saw countless floating stones drifting in a vast and boundless void.

These stones seemed to be suspended in the air by an invisible force, quietly rotating under the dark blue sky, emitting a faint light.

Each floating stone was like an isolated island, floating alone in the deep night sky. The luster on its surface was like being covered with stardust, sometimes flickering with blue light, as if it had captured the essence of the galaxy for a moment.

These glowing stones not only gave this area in the Chasm a surreal beauty, but also seemed to be telling ancient and mysterious stories.

The surrounding space was immersed in a deep silence, and only the dancing of light and shadow brought a touch of gentle light to this dim environment.

The mine tunnel under their feet seemed to have reached its end, and the winding wooden structure looked precarious, as if warning any visitor of the danger and instability here.

This is a space full of contradictions—it is both dark and bright, both quiet and full of rhythmic power.

The mysterious light of the floating stones drew subtle trajectories in the darkness, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

And among these floating stones, one could perceive the trembling of electromagnetism in the air, as if they were having some kind of silent conversation with each other.

This scene shocked Zhi Qiong's soul; these incredible sights were by no means easily witnessed by mortals.

The mysterious power and ancient wisdom hidden here made Zhi Qiong have a deeper awe for this giant abyss.

At this time, Lin Mo and the others seemed to be standing on the threshold of another world, watching an ancient and unknown world, waiting for them to explore and discover.

"Whether it was before or now, even if I have been here, coming here again now, I can still feel the shock."

Looking at the scene in front of her, Zhi Qiong sighed: "After the miners discovered this thing, 'Lumenstone' began to proliferate wantonly in the Chasm... there must be some connection between them."

"From the way it floats, and its damaged shape... it is very similar to the Dragonspine fragments that Sister Xia mentioned."

Hearing Zhi Qiong's sigh, Lin Mo nodded and said: "Perhaps below, there is also an unknown ancient civilization buried, just like that ancient tomb on the snow mountain."

"Eh?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Zhi Qiong was stunned.

What ancient tomb on the snow mountain?

Yelan also fell into deep thought. Dragonspine?

"Next, we need to continue to go deep and investigate."

The next second, Zhi Qiong looked at the floating stones in front of her and said: "Recently, the geological structure of the Chasm has been accelerating. The two lords also saw those black substances covering the rocks... they have only proliferated on a large scale recently."

"I'm not sure, but perhaps it all has to do with these flowing lights... and this floating crystal fragment."

"Do you feel uncomfortable?"

The next second, Lin Mo suddenly thought of something, looked at Zhi Qiong, and spoke thoughtfully.

If he remembered correctly, this young girl seemed to be in poor health because of long-term contact with these black substances.

This black substance is like a form of pollution, which can make ordinary people constantly weak, eventually get sick, and even die.

Although it won't kill immediately, it seems to be a kind of chronic poison.

He had mastered the power of the Path of the Hunt, and through the aura of the Path of the Hunt, he did indeed feel the evil aura of these black substances.

It's just that the evil aura emitted by these black substances wanted to affect his body, but it was instantly dispelled by the aura of the Path of the Hunt around him.

And Lin Mo also found that even the aura that drifted to Yelan's side was offset by elemental power and slowly dissipated.

This scene, even Yelan herself did not notice.

This is related to Yelan having a Hydro Vision.

On the contrary, Zhi Qiong is an ordinary adventurer, without a Vision, and without the aura of other powers, so she can only be polluted by this power.

"Eh? Did you feel it too?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Zhi Qiong was instantly excited: "Sure enough, you felt it too, right."

"These black substances give me a very uncomfortable feeling, like the feeling of being dizzy and wanting to vomit when riding a carriage, or the feeling of losing your sense of direction when encountering wind and waves on a boat."

"I have been here before, but the feeling wasn't obvious at the time, and now it's getting more and more obvious."

"It's not like a lord from the General Affairs Office didn't come here with me to let me lead the way, but that lord didn't feel anything."

"Instead, some miners who dug here felt uncomfortable, but after coming into contact with Lumenstone, they seemed to have lost this feeling, but I still feel it."

"Now you feel it too, right, Lord."

She wasn't the only one encountering this; the feeling Lin Mo described made Zhi Qiong instantly feel like she had found a kindred spirit.

"This is being deeply affected."

Hearing Zhi Qiong's words, Lin Mo nodded: "Or rather, being severely eroded. If I'm not mistaken, those miners who dug here were all seriously ill, right?"

"Right!"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Zhi Qiong was excited: "You are truly divine to be able to guess this. Many people were sick at the time, and some were even seriously ill until now. The General Affairs Office even let the lords of Bubu Pharmacy examine them, and they have been recuperating until now."

"At that time, the Millelith and miners here were transferred away, and this place was sealed and became a forbidden place."

"I judge that it definitely has to do with this black substance, but the lord of the Huishan Hall said it had nothing to do with it, and he had no influence, so it was left unsettled."

"But now, it is clearly having an influence."

This person really knows a lot.

It made Zhi Qiong excited.

At the same time, it also made Zhi Qiong deeply understand that everyone getting sick has to do with this black substance.

Hearing Lin Mo and Zhi Qiong's words, Yelan on the side raised her eyebrows.

Why didn't she feel this so-called feeling?

However, the miners who dug here were indeed all seriously ill, and there were even casualties. This is classified information in the intelligence.

To this day, there are still people lying in bed recuperating.

"How about now?"

The next second, Lin Mo reached out and placed his hand on Zhi Qiong's shoulder, activating Bai Lu's ability.

Wandering in the Spirit Marsh, the illness is short.

In an instant, a vast and boundless aura seemed to descend from the void, instantly pouring into Zhi Qiong's body.

"Ah?!"

The sudden feeling made Zhi Qiong instantly let out a cry of pleasure.

Zhi Qiong only felt that the discomfort that had been bothering her instantly dissipated completely.

Replacing it was unprecedented relaxation.

Every cell in her body seemed to be releasing a cheering aura.

Zhi Qiong could even feel that the strength she could mobilize seemed to be a little greater.

This cool feeling was like a person in the hot summer who was dizzy and instantly pierced through the body by a cool feeling.

No, it wasn't cool, it was just that very comfortable feeling, making Zhi Qiong's face visibly return to a rosy color.

"Hmm, the influence is not deep. As long as you don't frequently come into contact with these things in the future, it won't be a problem."

Lin Mo, who had cast Wandering in the Spirit Marsh, nodded: "However, it doesn't matter if you come into contact with this black substance in the short term."

Bai Lu's ability allowed Lin Mo to successfully heal Zhi Qiong.

It allowed Zhi Qiong's body, which had been damaged for years, to recover most of it instantly.

This is also the reason why Zhi Qiong felt comfortable.

If he didn't care, Zhi Qiong's body would only get worse and worse.

Eventually, she would lie in bed waiting for death with a dizzy head and confusion.

Unless healed.

And Wandering in the Spirit Marsh added life to Zhi Qiong.

In this way, this young girl should not repeat that ending.

"Too amazing, Lin Mo."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Zhi Qiong grabbed Lin Mo's hand with excitement: "How did you do it? Just by placing it on my shoulder, it made me feel so good."

"If you keep placing it on my shoulder, wouldn't that make me feel good forever?"

The feeling just now made Zhi Qiong feel so good.
