Hu Tao rested against the trunk of the tree for a moment, and the stamina potion had already taken effect.

It didn't take long for his face to return to blood, and the brilliance in his eyes had returned seven or eight points at this moment.

"What is it that fights you?" Seeing that Hu Tao had recovered most of it, Keqing asked.

Hu Tao shook his head: "I don't know, a spirit wrapped in a black shadow, I have never seen that kind of thing, there are many faces, every time my element collides with its power, it will be dyed black and assimilated, it's very strange."

When she said this, Hu Tao's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she didn't understand why this was the case.

She clearly felt that the strength of the black shadow was not strong, but every time her strength came into contact with it, it would be infected and assimilated, and it would take more strength to offset this infected power.

Thankfully, the ancestral staff of Goma seemed to have some restraint on that evil power, so that she could have the ability to resist.

But even that kept her at a stalemate.

Hearing Hu Tao's comment, Keqing couldn't help frowning, and a little worry rose in her heart.

Hu Tao's strength had already been seen by her just now.

It's on par with her, but it's also in such a dangerous situation.

This shows how tricky that dark shadow really is.

Listening to Hu Tao's description, Keqing suddenly remembered a rumor he had heard when he was a child.

"Legend has it that a pitch-black meteorite once fell beyond the Liyue Cloudy Sea, supposedly by the Emperor in order to subdue the Demon Beasts, but because it was contaminated with powerful filthy blood, the properties of that piece of material were no longer pure Rock Emperor Emperor's power."

"Listening to Hu Tao's description, the power of this black shadow is somewhat similar to the rumored filthy blood, which can change our power and dye it black."

Keqing whispered.

This rumor was told to her by Keqing's grandfather when she was a child, she thought it was just a story, but she didn't expect to hear the existence of the same origin again today.

Su Ye listened, but remembered the contents of the diary.

At the end of the diary, the man with the same name as "Otto", the archbishop of the Mandate of Heaven in Honkai Impact III, should have been poisoned by this thing.

Then it turned into the black shadow that was killed by Su Ye.

That is, that thing can assimilate not only forces, but even people.

Su Ye informed Hu Tao and Keqing of his conjecture, and handed the diary to Hu Tao to read.

After a while, Hu Tao closed the diary and remained silent.

She knew that her current strength was completely insufficient, and she also knew the horror of the black shadow.

But thinking of the spirits wailing and struggling in the dark shadows, he still lifted the staff of Goma in his hand.

"I've already seen it, go straight from this direction, it will take about half a day, before dark, you can leave here, and then tell Mr. Zhongli what happened here, I..."

After a short silence, Hu Tao pursed his lips, and then put on that trademark smile and said to Su Ye.

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Su Ye.

"Hall Master, do you remember what you taught me the other day?"

"No matter when and where, no one should easily provoke [death]."

Su Ye said with a solemn face.

He could see that Hu Tao's words just now were quite meaningful.

She entrusts the Hall of the Dead to the most trusted Zhongli, and she believes that Zhongli can maintain the Hall of the Dead well.

But how could Su Ye let her go.

"Wufu Slope is the [boundary], the dividing line between life and death, and the place guarded by the Hall of the Past Generations."

"We go to the Hall of Death, collect money from the living, and send the dead on the road, and we must satisfy the people of the Yin and Yang worlds."

"Now that this kind of change has happened in Wufupo, I can't escape the blame as the master of the Dead Hall..."

Hu Tao's face was particularly solemn at this time, and he said to Su Ye very seriously.

That was the side that Su Ye had only seen at the funeral.

No matter what happens, as long as it is not at the funeral, Hu Tao behaves like a playful child, and the solemnity at the moment is like seeing off the dead.

But Su Ye knew that if Hu Tao was allowed to go alone, there was a high probability that the next funeral he would preside over would be the seventy-seventh generation hall master of the Afterlife Hall.

"Hall Master, don't forget, I am the ceremonial of the Afterlife Hall, and I am also a member of the Afterlife Hall, and it is also my duty to deal with the catastrophe here."

After sighing lightly, Su Ye said with a smile on his face.
