"A first-grade saint? That's pretty much what I expected." Qin Luo thought to himself, then a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
Seeing this, You Yueying snorted coldly: "What? You seem to doubt my judgment. Do you know the background of that Eastern girl's father?"
Qin Luo's face showed a thoughtful expression:
"I only know that Jin Yao has an extraordinary identity and a powerful family behind her, but I really know very little about the specific background of her father."
You Yueying narrowed her eyes, a hint of reminiscence flashing within them, and slowly said:
"The myriad worlds are far more complex than you imagine. Here, countless races coexist, and many prodigies from lower planes have flocked to our world. And this Dongfang Ye was one of the most outstanding among them a thousand years ago."
She paused, a hint of seriousness in her eyes, and continued:
"As you know, the myriad worlds are strictly hierarchical, and crossing realms is almost impossible, especially above the Saint Realm, where the difficulty increases exponentially. Within the Saint Realm, each rank represents a higher level, and the difference between each rank is far greater than all the previous realms combined. What makes Dongfang Ye special is his ability to maintain strength across realms!"
"That's right. Dongfang Ye rose to fame a thousand years ago with his cross-realm strength and has continued to rise. Even now, his reputation should be enough to intimidate countless cultivators."
"Now you should know just how unbelievable your extraordinary physical body really is, right?"
Feeling the gaze directed at him by You Yueying, Qin Luo understood perfectly. He knew that her explanation was both to clear up his confusion and to hint at the reason for his powerful physical body.
But Qin Luo pretended to be confused, scratched his head, and said with a simple and honest look:
"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Senior You. I never expected that my physical body would grow to such a level after I survived the tribulation."
Seeing that Qin Luo had no intention of explaining, You Yueying snorted coldly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes. However, she didn't press him for an explanation, after all, everyone has their own secrets.
So she stopped talking and said with a serious expression, "Now that this matter is settled, it's time to get down to business."
Now that she knew Qin Luo's approximate strength, she finally felt at ease letting him go to find the resurrection item. After all, with Qin Luo's current strength, he possessed a certain ability to protect himself in the myriad worlds.
Qin Luo took a deep breath, turned his gaze into the distance, and was about to say something in agreement when he suddenly thought of something.
He turned his head, a sincere light suddenly appearing in his deep pupils. Then, he fixed his gaze on You Yueying and said softly:
"Thanks."
Hearing this sudden thank you, a hint of surprise flashed in You Yueying's eyes. She instinctively opened her mouth, wanting to say:
"I was just testing your strength for you," she said. However, when she met Qin Luo's sincere gaze, she suddenly realized that the thanks were for the time she had stood up for him before.
A strange sense of panic welled up inside her, and she felt a crack appear in her usual calm and composure at this moment.
To hide her unease, she coughed, her eyes darting nervously, and said in a slightly stiff tone:
"This... there's no need to thank me. You are the key to my resurrection. I can't just stand by and watch you be bullied by a maid."
Qin Luo shook his head, his eyes full of seriousness and sincerity:
“This is different. This is the first time I’ve ever felt like I can rely on someone. That feeling… is so warm and reassuring. I’ve always kept it in my heart, so this thank you is from the bottom of my heart.”
You Yueying felt extremely uncomfortable under that gaze; this feeling was completely foreign to her.
For a long time, she had been used to being high above others. In all these years, few people dared to look directly at her so boldly, let alone evoke such complex emotional fluctuations in her.
At this moment, under Qin Luo's unwavering gaze, she felt her unease and embarrassment growing stronger.
Finally, she could no longer endure the unbearable atmosphere and instinctively wanted to escape. So, she hastily tossed out a sentence:
"Alright, stop nagging. This is nothing. You still need to find the resurrection item I need. Don't waste any more time. I haven't even settled accounts with you for the time you've wasted here."
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure quickly disappeared into the ring, leaving only a faint afterimage.
"Um, I don't think I said anything wrong, right? Besides, you haven't told me about the remaining medicinal herbs..." Qin Luo thought helplessly. He had naturally noticed You Yueying's unease, but he didn't press the issue. Thinking of this, he wouldn't be so ungrateful as to ask her further.
So he stopped hesitating, his feet sank, and he instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving no trace of force on the ground, not even a speck of dust was stirred up.
This demonstrates Qin Luo's extreme control over this terrifying physical body at this moment...
The Ancient Void Continent is one of the thirty-six supercontinents of the myriad worlds. It is also one of the three supercontinents ruled by divine beasts.
The Ancient Ruins Continent is vastly different from other ordinary supercontinents. It is not an isolated entity, but rather it tightly connects the dozens of continents under its jurisdiction, forming a colossal whole that constitutes the immeasurably vast territory of the Ancient Ruins Continent.
Countless different kinds of monsters are scattered throughout the continent. From towering, precipitous mountains to deep, mysterious, and vast forests, from turbulent, endless oceans to scorching, barren deserts, their active figures can be seen everywhere.
On the continent ruled by demonic beasts, their distribution follows a unique pattern. Generally speaking, the denser the concentration of demonic beasts, the more mixed and chaotic their bloodlines are, and they mostly occupy the lowest level of the entire demonic beast hierarchy.
They are numerous and have to rely on instinct and limited abilities to struggle for survival in fierce competition.
In places where monsters are sparsely distributed, there are hidden even more powerful monsters, pure and noble in blood, and even divine beasts.
These powerful demonic beasts, thanks to their pure bloodlines, possess intelligence and strength far exceeding that of ordinary demonic beasts. Even the slightest glimpse of their aura is enough to terrify lower-level demonic beasts, causing them to flee in terror.
The survival rules of this ancient continent are far more brutal than those of the continents occupied by humans.
In the human world, although there is struggle and competition, there are still many constraints such as morality and law, and there is still a certain order on the surface.
But in this ancient continent of monsters, everything follows the most primitive and direct law of the jungle—survival of the fittest!
