Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

He saw a child singing a beautiful song.

He saw the child naming the thunderbird.

He saw the child being killed.

He saw angry thunder engulf the thick fog.

He saw Wu Xiang's knife strike.

The footage is too fragmented, with each shot a chaotic mess.

"This is... Thunderbird's memory?"

Jiang Bai frowned and told Hu Tao what he had seen.

"I guess so. But you can actually see it, when I touch it it just feels electric." Hu Tao's tone was a little sour.

Jiang Bai is a rather unusual guy.

"Hahaha, after all, I'm special!"

There's nothing we can do about it; outsiders have very high privileges in Teyvat.

Although he also felt it was very buggy.

"Give this to Gudong."

Jiang Bai examined it and confirmed that it was the lightning element crystal of that monster. The reason it could display images was simply because of its unique nature.

Ultimately, it's just elemental power, which doesn't have much effect on him.

Hu Tao disagreed, "Don't feed it everything, what if it gets sick?"

"It's okay, it can handle it."

Since it's elemental power, it can be absorbed.

Although it's a lightning element, from a different source than Gudu, and its absorption effect is worse, it can still be absorbed slowly.

"Such strong elemental power, and we can't break it apart. What if we can't withstand it after swallowing it?"

"It's okay, you can ask Gudu if you don't believe me."

"You're just taking advantage of the fact that Gudu can't talk!"

"No way..."

Seeing the two suddenly start arguing, as if they were debating the issue of children's education, Ichidou felt that he shouldn't be here, but should be underground.

"Ah Chou, let's go somewhere further away."

The ghost and the ox walked to the edge of the platform and cautiously peered down.

The area below remained pitch black, and after looking at it for a while, one had the illusion that they were about to fall.

Yi Dou squatted on the ground, anxiously holding Achou, "Achou, be careful not to fall, or I won't be able to save you..."

"Moo~"

Ah Chou glanced at his boss's shaking leg.

How come we never noticed before that our eldest child was afraid of heights?

"You don't understand, your grandpa isn't scared, I'm just getting used to it! I'll get used to it in a bit..."

The highest place he had ever been was the summit of Yingxiang Mountain, which was much higher than Yingxiang Mountain.

"Moo~"

Having reached a conclusion in the debate, Jiang Bai shouted, "Let's go, let's go down!"

This is where the Thunderbird's resentment is strongest. Even if the monster formed from the resentment of lightning is destroyed, the resentment still exists. Staying here for too long is bad for your health.

"You came up with a solution so quickly?" Ito was somewhat surprised.

He thought they were going to argue for a long time.

"Gudong touched it, and it couldn't withstand the electric shock and passed out." Jiang Bai shrugged.

The lightning element in this crystal is too concentrated; it's beyond what Gudu can absorb at its current level.

He planned to go back and ask the old man if there was any way to extract the elemental power from the crystal, breaking it down into many smaller portions so that Gudu could absorb it.

After getting used to the altitude for a while, Yi Dou boarded the spaceship and adapted well.

Specifically, the leg stopped shaking.

Where do we go next?

"Rest for the night and go to Heguan. I saw some memories of the Thunderbird. One scene was an island filled with thick fog. Heguan is said to be shrouded in thick fog. That should be where the Thunderbird first stayed."

"He Guan, another place I've heard of but never been to."

Yi Dou felt he had gained a lot from this trip with them, and he could brag about it to his underlings for a long time when he got back.

What news have you heard about Heguan?

"I only overheard some adventurers mentioning it in a restaurant... They were discussing whether Tsurukan was part of Inazuma's territory. I hadn't heard of this place before, but I overheard out of curiosity."

"They said that Tsurukan is located in a very remote area, close to the outer sea of ​​An. The shogunate has never sent anyone to that island, and many people don't even know about it. So it doesn't count as Inazuma's territory."

"Some people say he went to the island and saw the statue of General Raiden on the island, so Tsurugamura is considered Inazuma's territory..."

"They say that place is both eerie and remote, shrouded in fog year-round, and many adventurers who go in never find their way out; it's a dead end..."

Jiang Bai's attention was focused on the "dark outer sea," a term he was hearing for the first time.

What is the Outer Sea of ​​Darkness?

"I don't know either, I just heard it from others."

Jiang Bai looked at Hu Tao, "Does the Hall Master know?"

"The Dark Beyond Sea sounds mysterious, but it's just a sea area. In ancient times, some coastal people called the area outside the protection of the Seven Gods the Dark Beyond Sea, and that's how the name 'Dark Beyond Sea' has been passed down."

"It is said that during the war between the demon gods, many defeated demon gods fled to the dark outer sea."

"However, we humans can't get through. It seems there's a boundary blocking us, but I don't know the specifics."

Some of this information she obtained from Zhongli, and some she gleaned from snippets of information in books.

For Teyvat, the Dark Outer Sea represents the unknown and danger.

No one has ever been there, and no one has ever come here.

Thinking of this, she became somewhat excited, "After we go to He Guan, we can prepare more food and look for this border. I, the sect leader, have never seen a border before in my entire life..."

Chapter 550 This island is so eerie!

What does the border actually look like?

Could it be a transparent, invisible membrane?

Is it possible for them to reach it?

Can we see the dark sea beyond the boundary?

What does the outer sea look like? Could the seawater be a different color?

Once curiosity is ignited, it's unstoppable.

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

Jiang Bai clapped his hands in agreement; he was also very curious about these things.

Honestly, he didn't even know how he got into Teyvat.

That memory remains blank to this day.

"Great minds think alike! I also want to see what the border looks like."

The three agreed to rest for one night and then head directly to Heguan.

They didn't know exactly where the border was, but since Heguan was close to the border, they decided to go there first, use it as a springboard, and then set off again.

After sailing for several days, a large island came into view.

Just as rumored, the island was shrouded in mist, with only layers of fog and the hazy outlines of the mountains visible.

Hu Tao frowned.

"I feel that the island has a very heavy yin energy and is out of balance between yin and yang."

The little ghost emerged from her body and nodded solemnly.

It was midday, yet the sunlight couldn't penetrate the layers of mist at all.

"We'll land on the island, but first we'll look around and be careful."

Although Jiang Bai was confident that he would not be afraid of any demonic creature except for encountering a demon god, he still felt it was best to be cautious when facing such an evil place.

The three of them went ashore and landed on the island. Once on the island, it was like entering another world, where the sunlight was completely blocked out.

"Without sunshine, food would probably be scarce on the island."

Whether it's planted crops or naturally growing fruit trees, they all need sunlight.

Without sunlight, there would be far fewer creatures on the island.

Hu Tao tapped her ring. "It's nothing. I caught a lot of seafood on my way to Inazuma, and it's all dried into fish jerky."

Although eating seafood all the time can make you sick of it, sometimes you can't be too picky.

"There's a statue of the Seven Gods over there. Let's go take a look."

Perhaps due to the existence of the Seven Gods statues, the fog in this area is relatively normal.

Jiang Bai touched the statue and felt relieved to see that the earth's vein network was still connected.

The fact that teleportation is possible means that the situation on the island isn't dangerous, just a bit strange.

Adventurers have come here before and returned safely.

"I feel that the location of this statue is different from the usual locations of the chosen gods."

Jiang Bai looked at the towering mountains in the mist ahead.

Judging from the many statues he touched, most of them were located in the central area of ​​a region.

This statue is located on the edge of the entire Crane Temple, making it look quite unique.

"Maybe after the Demon God War, General Thunder just randomly placed a statue in a fixed location. I've seen some statues in pretty random locations too," Hu Tao said, shrugging.

"That's true, there's no point in dwelling on these things."

"Let's go in. The fog is too thick; we'd better not split up."

Jiang Bai led the way into the mist, with Hu Tao and Yi Dou following closely behind.

The situation was slightly better on the outskirts, but the further in you went, the thicker the fog became, even affecting the light.

With a wave of his hand, bright flames swirled around him, illuminating the surroundings. The little ghost emerged from his body and peered through the mist to survey the area.

"This fog is way too thick. It's broad daylight, but it feels like nighttime," Yi Dou muttered, feeling a deep sense of unease.

No wonder the adventurers said the island was eerie; they had only just arrived and already couldn't see the way at all, and everything around them was blurry.

"It's just a bit dark, but it's not too bad. And the fog doesn't block out sound, so it's relatively safe. If you accidentally get separated, just shout, and you'll be able to find someone by following the sound."

Hu Tao thought it was alright; it did look a bit like this when Wuwangpo was shrouded in fog.

It's also impossible to see the sunlight.

However, Wuwangpo is affected by the earth's veins, and we will have to investigate to find out exactly what kind of influence it is.

"I heard that no one has lived on Heguan Island for thousands of years."

"I guess so, but I'm not sure." Ichidou knew very little about the Crane Temple.

"Although Tsurukan is Inazuma's territory, no one ever says they want to live here, and the shogunate doesn't seem to care about this place..."

“Narukami Island has enough room for you all, of course no one would want to live in such a remote place. Besides, even if Narukami Island were full, there are so many other islands…”

"Then can I claim an island here and become its owner?" Yi Dou thought being an island owner would be quite fun.

Since no one is in charge here, if he occupies an island, then it naturally becomes his island.
