Teleport to the waypoint northwest of Nothing Passage and go southeast to find a strange light orb. Using the Kuuvahki energy to destroy the box will start Crimson Cleansing.

If you have already finished the Blues of the Old World, the game will directly bring you to the Crimson Cleansing quest location.

Look for the strange light orb

Climb the boxes and use the Kuuvahki energy again to break the box. Next, enter it and approach the strange light orb.

Follow the navigation to reach a cave entrance blocked by an energy barrier, which can only be removed using an ID. To shut down the barrier, climb the small boxes on the right side and look at the ID card. Next, use the interactive button (T button on PC) to summon it and slowly pass it through all the modules on the barrier.

Defeat all opponents
