High in the sky, a figure was moving through the clouds at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, Shiraki couldn't help but marvel at the vastness of the Teyvat continent.

What should have been a journey of a few thousand meters in the game took him most of the day to finally see Liyue Harbor.

Bai Mu originally wanted to use Leyline Teleport to directly "tp" to Liyue Harbor, but he discovered that he could only teleport to the anchor points he had marked.

So Shiraki had another task on his journey: to find and mark the teleportation anchor points.

After flying for a short while, Bai Mu spotted another anchor point below.

After marking the anchor points, Shiraki was about to leave. But he suddenly sensed that the elemental fluctuations here seemed somewhat different from those in other places.

After carefully sensing the area, Bai Mu was surprised to find that the fire element was unusually active.

These fire elements spread outwards from a central point, and there seemed to be a powerful fire elemental creature within that central point.

"The creature inside must be the Blazing Tree."

Bai Mu thought to himself.

Then, Bai Mu flew towards the place where the fire element was most concentrated.

"I wonder if this thing will produce any droppings."

Bai Mu thought as he flew.

He wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to defeat the Blazing Tree.

In the game, the Blazing Tree is basically a freebie for most players.

You can just use a water-type character to splash it a few times, then attack it a few more times and it'll be gone. There's no need to worry about being killed by that thing.

Moreover, Bai Mu's true form is a dragon, and its greatest strength lies in the water element.

In his opinion, killing a free-to-play Flame Tree was a piece of cake.

After searching for a while, Bai Mu landed at the entrance of a cave.

He originally intended to land further away so he could better observe the situation.

But not far away he spotted a troop of Thousand Rock Army soldiers patrolling the area, presumably to prevent any reckless individuals from trespassing into this dangerous place.

To avoid trouble, Bai Mu did not meet with the Thousand Rock Army.

After all, he had never worn the Eye of God. If he had just swaggered past the Thousand Rock Army, he would probably have been stopped as an ordinary adventurer.

Shiraki naturally didn't want such trouble to happen.

The moment he entered the cave, a wave of heat hit him. Bai Mu instinctively used water element to resist it.

Having experienced the intensity of the heatwave, Shiraki had a better understanding of the situation.

Continuing deeper, as the fire element grew stronger, Shiraki discovered something on the path beside the passage.

Uh

They discovered a pot suspended by three logs, with a fire still burning brightly at the bottom.

Bai Mu felt a sense of relief; he had finally found a place exactly like the one in the game.

When you see this pot, it means the Fiery Tree is right in front of you.

Sure enough, after Bai Mu passed by the pot, the road ahead suddenly opened up.

A bright red plant was curled up in the open space in front of them, and hot currents were rising from the ground around the plant.

As Shiraki approached, Blazing Tree also noticed his arrival.

It first slowly stretched out its body, then faced the white wood, opened its petal-like opening, and let out a deafening roar.

The cave seemed to tremble a few times from the roar, and several loose rocks even fell off.

"Oops!"

The moment the Flame Tree opened its mouth, Shiraki sensed that something was amiss.

It's not because the Flame Tree has any problems with its strength.

On the contrary, he felt that if he used his full strength, he could destroy this Blazing Tree in the blink of an eye.

The problem is that such a commotion here will inevitably attract the attention of that small squad of Thousand Rock Army outside.

Bai Mu felt troubled just thinking about having to negotiate with the Thousand Rock Army.

He hated dealing with these officials who only followed orders from their superiors.

Sure enough, in his perception, the small squad of Thousand Rock Army soldiers outside turned their heads toward the source of the sound the instant they heard it.

The man at the head, who seemed to be their squad leader, said to his subordinates with a mixture of helplessness and regret:

"Sigh, it seems some arrogant adventurers have gone to challenge the Blazing Tree again. Let's hurry over there to prevent their corpses from being burned to ashes. Hopefully, they can at least leave with a complete body."

The others nodded in agreement, not believing that the adventurers who sneaked in were truly skilled.

To prevent weak adventurers from going to these lord-level monsters to their deaths, Seven Stars specifically arranged a small squad of Thousand Rock Army soldiers on the outskirts of each lord-level monster's territory to stop those adventurers who went there to their deaths.

If it were someone possessing the Eye of God or a powerful sorcerer who came to subdue these demons, the Thousand Rock Army would naturally welcome them.

Although most of those who launched the campaigns ended in failure, at least they were able to escape.

Shiraki felt that time was of the essence, so he gave up the idea of ​​testing the waters.

Then, in his palm, water elements quickly gathered into the tip of a long spear.

After the spear tip solidified, Bai Mu controlled the divine power within his body and used it to shape the spear into its complete form.

A spear with a water element tip and a divine power shaft was sculpted by Bai Mu.

Bai Mu tossed the spear in his hand as he raised it.

The moment the spear touched the Fiery Tree, the water element at the spear tip immediately broke through the Fiery Tree's defenses.

Then divine power followed closely, and with another loud bang, the body of the Blazing Tree slowly dissipated, leaving only a ley line flower more than a meter tall in the original place.

Upon hearing yet another loud bang coming from the cave, the Qianyan Army squad leader, who was walking in front, stopped and signaled to his team members behind him to stop as well.

"The adventurers inside seem to have the strength to fight the Blazing Tree. Let's wait here for a while."

The squad leader gave the order.

Having guarded this place for so long, he could still recognize the sounds of the Blazing Tree's attacks. The explosion just now definitely wasn't made by the Blazing Tree.

Moreover, an adventurer capable of creating such a commotion should be able to escape even if they are no match for the Blazing Tree.

After all, they didn't want to risk their lives for these complete strangers.

It is precisely because the Flame Tree has relatively weak mobility, coupled with its own relatively weak strength, that it is not very powerful.

With a little maneuvering, their team was still able to retrieve the body.

If it was the team guarding the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard's territory, all they could do was pray for them amidst the adventurers' screams.

After the loud bang, there was no more sound in the cave.

The members of the Qianyan Army squad also sensed that something was wrong.

They felt the temperature here was slowly decreasing.

The captain was particularly sensitive to the elements; he sensed that the restless fire element in the air was slowly calming down.

This immediately gave him an incredible idea:

"Could the Blazing Tree have been instantly killed?"

He then shook his head, trying to shake the absurd idea out of his mind.

However, when he saw his colleagues asking him for confirmation with equally incredulous expressions, he inexplicably began to believe his guess.

Inside the cave, Shiraki, the culprit behind this incident, was looking at the location of the Exploding Flame Tree with a "you're kidding me" expression.

He felt he had underestimated the Flame Tree enough, but the reality was that it was even weaker than he had imagined.

Looking at the Earth Vein Flower in front of him, Bai Mu was troubled again.

Although he is a cultured person, he doesn't have resin and doesn't know if this stuff can yield anything.

Shiraki tentatively reached out towards the flower of the earth veins.

The moment the ley line flower was touched, the ley line flower on the ground slowly dissipated.

What appeared in Bai Mu's hand were three ever-burning flames, an oval-shaped red crystal, and five rhombus-shaped red crystals.

After examining the items in his hands, Bai Mu put them away, intending to study them slowly later.

The most urgent task is to leave this place first; as for the aftermath, we can leave that to the Qianyan Army.

But Bai Mu thought about it again. Anyway, the Blazing Tree was a menace in this area, and it didn't know when it would regenerate. He might as well help the people of Liyue solve this problem.

A surge of water element rose, and mist rose from the platform where the Blazing Tree was located.

The water mist gradually condensed into a stream of water, which converged on the platform in front of the Blazing Tree, completely covering the platform.

After experiencing it for a while, Shiraki nodded.

The water film here should last for about a year. Coming here once a year thereafter will solve a major problem for Liyue.

However, Bai Mu, who thought he had done a good deed, was unaware of the enormous losses his actions would cause to the blacksmiths of Liyue.

The prolonged silence inside the cave made the Thousand Rock Army squad outside somewhat anxious.

Just as they were about to go in to check, a young man dressed in white with an ethereal air walked out from inside.

In the eyes of the young people, they saw a sense of satisfaction from doing something great.

Just as the captain was about to speak, the young man in front of them suddenly soared into the air and disappeared into the depths of the clouds to their astonishment.

It took them a few seconds to realize what was happening.

The squad leader then led his team to explore the cave.

Feeling the water film on the platform where the Blazing Tree had been, and the coolness in the air, the squad leader instantly realized that this was a serious matter.
