Whether there was light underwater or not didn't affect Hysilens in the slightest. She could simply close her eyes, and the seawater surrounding her became an extension of her limbs, her eyes.

Player World.
It has to be said, using Qingxu to defeat Qingge was surprisingly easy. Qingxu's handling felt incredibly smooth, and against Qingge, dying was nearly impossible.
By simply bringing a healer to ensure Qingxu's survival and then leveraging her ability to rapidly stack elemental damage, taking down Qingge was onl...

Lumine pointed at herself, surprised that she was also involved. After half a second of thought, she stepped forward and walked out.
Qingge turned to Zhongli again: "I implore the Geo Archon for his blessing!"
Zhongli's expression remained unreadable. He raised his hand and with a sweeping gesture, a golden shield enveloped the entir...

Qingge, who had previously spoken with a halting voice, suddenly spoke with perfect fluency.
At the same moment, Lumine noticed her longsword emitting a faint golden glow. The soul of Qingge within the blade seemed to be responding to the zombie Qingge.
Perhaps this was why Qingge's speech had suddenly become so smooth.

Venti's music filled the air, soothing the hearts of everyone present. Even Xiao's expression softened.
Qingge suddenly froze, turning her head toward Venti as he played. Her crimson eyes slowly faded, rationality returning to her gaze.
But with so little consciousness remaining, even Venti's aid could hardly achieve the full effect ...

After completing her spear routine, Qingxu's gaze swept toward the spot where Qingge was hiding.
Gripping her spear tightly, she approached slowly, step by step, her senses on high alert.
Has she been discovered?
Not bad.
Qingge abandoned her hiding place and emerged into the open.

"Traveler?"
Hu Tao's repeated question snapped Lumine out of her wandering thoughts.
Lumine turned back, hesitated for a moment, then spoke:
"That zombie just now... it was Qingge..."

Hu Tao and Keqing stared with wide eyes, their faces etched...

As a living dead, Qingge's presence was extremely faint. With her deliberate concealment, she was nearly undetectable unless someone ran directly into her.

As the setting sun cast its crimson glow across Qingge's face, the warm light brought a faint hint of life to her pale, rigid features.
Her movements were stiff and deliberate as she slowly raised her hand. Lowering her gaze, she stared at her disfigured right hand in prolonged silence.
Then, Qingge began her descent down the narrow ...

The Armored Man had completely lost his ability to fight. Though not yet dead, he was close, merely waiting for one of the gods to find a moment to deliver the final blow.

Unlike the black-robed figure, the clones he split off were entirely gray. There were four of them, and together with the original, they formed a group of five, attacking Barbatos from five different directions.
