Original God: I can earn experience points

Chapter 442: Rainforest and Dead Zone (Two in One)

Two days later.

Ying also learned the "Unthinking Sword", and her strength increased significantly.

She is now level 85.

Then Li Qiuzhi and his companions began to prepare to go to Xumi.

In fact, there was nothing to prepare. After all, he had a fairyland space with him, and all the necessary preparations were in it.

You can travel light.

"I don't know what kind of country Xumi is. I'm really looking forward to it!"

Walking slowly on the road to Xumi, Paimeng excitedly turned around in front of Li Qiuzhi and Ying.

"Little Paimon, don't you claim to be the best tour guide in Teyvat? You haven't even been to Xumi!"

Li Qiuzhi said half-jokingly.

"Damn it, you bastard! Even the best guide can't have been to every place. Isn't it natural that there are places you don't know about?"

Paimon flew with his arms folded, and turned his face away with a "snort".

"Well, little Paimon is the best partner. Let's explore and witness places we have never been to together. This is the meaning of the journey."

Ying said with a smile on her fair face.

"Hehe, that's right!" Paimon happily turned twice in the air.

"Okay. Since little Paimon is your best friend, what about me? I will also accompany you on adventures and look for my brother. I should also be your best friend."

Li Qiuzhi smiled and took Ying's hand, put his hands together and gently wrapped her soft palm.

"Humph, you are the worst person!"

Ying's pretty face blushed slightly, and she looked away, not knowing what she was thinking about.

"Oh? Since I'm so bad, I'll be bad to the end!"

Li Qiuzhi gave a wicked smile, suddenly squatted down and lifted Ying up, let her ride on his neck, and gently held her ankles.

Then he let out a "Woo-hoo!" and ran out happily!
"Hey, idiot! Your skirt is about to blow up!" Ying shyly pushed down the hem of her skirt.

"Damn it, stop running so fast!"

Paimeng, who was almost left behind, quickly chased after him, but her endurance was not as good as Li Qiuzhi's, who could not keep running.

So I just rode on Ying's neck and formed a three-person horse riding formation. Humph, just let that idiot Li Qiuzhi run by himself below!
The journey to Xumi Kingdom is not short. It is located adjacent to Liyue's Layered Rock Abyss. Behind the Cinnabar Cliff is Xumi's Daocheng Forest area.

Xumi's main city, Xumi City, is also located in this rainforest.

However, this rainforest is very large. Even if it is from this rainforest, the closest city to Liyue, it will take about a month to walk to Xumi City.

It would be even farther if you walked from Liyue.

But since Li Qiuzhi is here, they can naturally travel through space or fly.

Of course, they are just rushing through the Liyue area that has already been explored. When they arrive at Xumi, they will go back to walking.

After all, the meaning of a journey is not to rush to your destination, it is equally important to see the scenery and treasure chests along the way!
Near dusk in the afternoon, Li Qiuzhi, Ying and Paimeng finally arrived at the border between the Layered Abyss and Xumi.

"Wow, there is a huge forest ahead. Hehe, we must have reached Xumi now."

Paimon said excitedly.

In the country of Xumi, the most common features are rainforests and deserts. In Mond, we have all seen prairies and snow-capped mountains.

After seeing the mountains and towering peaks in Liyue, everyone is now looking forward to the rainforests and deserts of Xumi!

"Before coming here, we also learned about the basic situation of Xumi. It seems that something went wrong with the rainforest here. A place called the Dead Zone was born. We should be careful when the time comes!"

While Li Qiuzhi was looking forward to it, he also reminded everyone of the dangers of the wild.

"I know. Ying and I often go on adventures in the wild. We know much more about the various dangers in the wild than you, a guy who is obsessed with romance!"

Paimon humphed, indicating that he didn't need your reminder.

"Well, in that case, I won't remind you that there are many little spiders and little green snakes in the rain forest that like to suddenly fall from the trees and slip into the collars of passers-by..."

Li Qiuzhi said with a slight smile.

Just as he finished speaking, several people walked into the rainforest and officially entered the territory of Xumi.

After hearing what Li Qiuzhi said, Paimeng's mind unconsciously associated with the scene where she was floating under the tree and suddenly a small spider jumped into her collar.

"Ugh! Why are you saying such horrible things?!"

Little Paimon's face turned pale, and he quickly flew above the treetops in fear.

She instinctively thought that she was taller than the trees here, so naturally no little spider would fall into her collar.

Li Qiuzhi continued to hold Ying's ankles while she was riding on his neck, and shook his head and said:

"If you fly so high, you will easily be eaten by the monsters hiding in the trees as food delivered to their doorsteps."

"Eh!" Paimeng felt that it made sense and immediately wanted to descend.

But there were little spiders under the tree...which made her hesitant and caught in a dilemma.

Seeing Paimeng's eyes spinning around, Ying sighed and slapped Li Qiuzhi on the head, saying speechlessly:

"Why do you want to scare Paimon? If those things really existed, couldn't you just solve them in advance?"

"Oh, right? You guys are still here, why should I be afraid... Humph, you damn guy, why are you scaring me!"

Paimeng reacted and immediately flew down again, grabbed Li Qiuzhi's cheek and swung it left and right to avenge himself!
Because you are more easily fooled...

As Li Qiuzhi continued walking in the rain forest with many tall trees, he suddenly saw that the ground in the area ahead was different from ordinary land.

It was as if it had been robbed of its vitality and became much more desolate and dark.

"What is this?" Ying, who was riding on Li Qiuzhi's neck, also saw the abnormality in front of her. She said solemnly:

"It can't be such a coincidence that we have encountered the dead zone?"

"Obviously, this is the same as the description in the materials we saw. There is no mistake. This is the thing called the Dead Zone!"

Li Qiuzhi nodded.

“…Well, it makes me feel a little uncomfortable just looking at it. How about we go around it!” Paimon hid behind Ying with some fear.

“It is said that the dead zone has the ability to plunder life, and even humans cannot stay in it for too long.

“Unless you possess the Eye of God, which would allow you to hold out longer under the protection of elemental forces, otherwise your vitality will be quickly eroded.

"This also means that only the holder of the Eye of God will have enough time to clean up the dead zone."

Ying patted Li Qiuzhi's face with the inside of her thigh, which was covered by white over-the-knee boots, signaling him to put her down.

Li Qiuzhi nodded slightly, put Ying down, straightened her skirt and said:

"Why, do you want to clean up this dead zone?"

"Well, I feel that the power of these dead zones to plunder life seems to be a manifestation of the power of the abyss."

Ying took a step forward, and at the same time her golden hair slowly turned into a light gold with a whitish tint.

His whole temperament became much colder.

This is her "Abyss Princess" form.
Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng looked at each other, and seemed to have guessed what Ying was going to do, so they followed her. Ying took a tentative step into the dead zone in her high-heeled boots, and sure enough, it did not cause her any abnormality.

You can even interfere with and control these forces!

"How is it?" Li Qiuzhi asked from behind.

"Yes, that's right, it is indeed the power of the abyss." Ying's seemingly pale face relaxed a little.

Since they are the power of the abyss, it is easy for her to deal with them. In the form of "Princess of the Abyss", they cannot affect her.

"Come with me and find the source of the dead zone. They won't affect you with me here."

Ying turned her head sideways and spoke to Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng behind her.

"Okay, then let's study what this dead zone is all about?" Li Qiuzhi nodded slightly, and he and Paimeng followed Ying into the dead zone.

Perhaps because of Ying's interference with the power of the Dead Zone, Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng did not feel any discomfort.

Everyone carefully observed the situation inside the dead zone.

I found that all the trees, weeds on the ground, and all living things had withered.

Even monsters are rarely seen.

After all, monsters also have life, and they will instinctively avoid the dead zone.

At the same time, there seemed to be something in the dead zone that affected the vision, and everything seemed to be seen through a dark red filter.

Even if your vitality is not robbed, you will feel bored and depressed if you stay here for a long time.

"Wow, is this what it looks like to be invaded by the dead zone? It feels so scary!"

Paimon clasped his little hands, hunched his shoulders, and floated closely beside Ying with fear.

"I can sense that the power of the dead zone in that place is even stronger. We should be able to reach its source soon, and then it shouldn't be a problem to destroy it."

Ying smiled and said.

“By the way, since the power of the Death Realm is really a variant of the power of the Abyss as you said, is it possible for you to master this power?

"It feels pretty powerful to be able to plunder life force. If you can master it, it can be a big help."

Li Qiuzhi said to Ying on a whim.

Although the power of the Death Realm seems too cruel, it is an uncontrollable situation.

If Ying could master it, it would be very valuable to use it in attacking monsters or for research.

".Well, I think it should be possible."

Ying was slightly stunned, then nodded and said:

“In my opinion, the main difference between the power of the dead realm and the pure power of the abyss is their nature.

"As long as I continue to feel the power of the Death Realm, it will be easy to understand its nature, and then I can use the power of the abyss to directly transform it into the power of the Death Realm."

"Hiss~ Is it so simple?" Li Qiuzhi said enviously.

"Okay, we have arrived at the place where the power of the Death Realm is most concentrated. I think it should be easier to understand the nature of the power of the Death Realm here."

Ying looked up and saw a huge withered broken log lying there.

Several dark red crystal plants that look like petals grow on the top, sides and bottom of the wood.

There is a dark red energy line connecting them, and the power of the death zone is emitted from these dark red crystal plants.

Obviously, they are the source of the power of the dead zone.

Simply destroying them will purify this dead zone, but attacking them rashly may provoke a counterattack.

She had a better idea.

That is just like what Li Qiuzhi said, just master the power of the death zone and then absorb it cleanly.

"Let's stay here for a while. Once I understand the nature of the power of the dead zone, I will clear it out."

Ying said to Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng.

"Okay, come on, I won't let this guy disturb you!" Paimeng nodded and grabbed Li Qiuzhi's clothes.

I think you are afraid and dare not stay too far away from me. Li Qiuzhi looked at little Paimeng with amusement and complained silently in his heart.

However, there are dangers in the dead zone besides the power of the dead zone.

Just like what we see in the game, what if this dead zone was just created not long ago and the monsters inside have not had time to get out yet.

Or you can't find a way out, and while your life is slowly being robbed, the environment becomes so depressing.

Over time, they will become much more irritable and their aggressiveness will increase accordingly.

Therefore, when you stay in the dead zone, you still have to be careful of dangerous monsters. It doesn't mean that you don't need to be wary of monsters because they have the instinct to leave the dead zone.

Just as Ying was comprehending the power of the Death Zone and Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng were observing their surroundings vigilantly, they suddenly heard a "click" sound coming from the right.

It sounded like a rotten branch being stepped on.

Li Qiuzhi and Paimeng subconsciously turned their heads, thinking that some dangerous monster had appeared.

But what they didn't expect was that a girl with green hair ran over in a hurry, then stopped in front of Li Qiuzhi and the others, and said breathlessly:

"Great, you're all right!"

"Eh? May I ask who you are?"

Paimon touched the white hair under his crown, blinked his starry eyes and looked at the green girl.

Some people don't understand why she appeared in the dangerous dead zone.

"Hello, I'm Apprentice Ranger Cole, and you are probably travelers lost in the dead zone.

"Hurry up! Come out with me. If you are late, even if you go out, you will inevitably get seriously ill!"

The green-haired girl hadn't even recovered yet when she quickly explained everything to Li Qiuzhi and the others.

Today, Cole and other senior forest rangers went out to patrol the forest as usual. When they got nearby, they found a new dead area.

As usual, they planned to return to Huacheng City to find someone to deal with the situation.

But she was sharp-eyed and suddenly discovered that there were actually several people in the Dead Zone. This situation was likely to be travelers from foreign countries who were unfamiliar with the Dead Zone.

She and her master had encountered this before when they were patrolling the forest.

At that time, it was usually the master who went into the dead zone and brought out those reckless travelers.

Otherwise, staying in the dead zone for too long may even put your life in danger.

But this time the master was not there, and the ranger who was with her was not the holder of the Eye of God and was unable to resist the power of the death zone here.

In order to bring out the travelers lost in the dead zone as soon as possible.

No way.

It had to be her, an apprentice ranger and holder of the Eye of God, who had to take responsibility and lead them out of the dead zone!
