One of the best places to find a ton of Gloom Slough is the Forbidden Forest. This area is located west of the Violet Banyan. Just be careful when catching the cicadas since many of the trees are covered in thorns.

After picking Gloom Slough in the Forbidden Forest, you can head southeast to reach the Dim Forest. This is the area around the Giant Banyan tree, where you can fight Feilian Beringal world boss. Most of the cicadas can be found surrounding the Giant Banyan tree, but you can find four insects near Nexus Beacons on the east.

Similar to the Sea of Flames, this zone is quite hazardous due to the spores. You can remove the negative effect by completing the When The Forest is No Longer Dim world quest.
