Chapter 4: The Vast Continent



Five years later.

The weather in early April is just right. Spring is back, everything is reviving, the blooming flowers in the warm spring take away the bleakness of winter, and the whole world becomes full of vitality.

In the Youran Pavilion of the An Mansion, a little girl in a pink dress was swinging on a swing in the yard, squinting her eyes and basking in the sun. Occasionally, she would stop to eat some fruit brought by the maid, looking very comfortable.

Five years have passed since the day of traveling through time. During these five years, An Ran, with the help of Xiao Ai, has been filling her body with the spiritual energy in the space. She looks more crystal clear and taller, just like a seven or eight-year-old child.

From a young age, An Ran displayed remarkable talent, both in literacy and memorization. So, at the age of four, her father allowed her to enter the library, allowing her to begin to understand the world. It was called a library, but it was actually just a room. For the past year, An Ran had barely gone out shopping, spending every day in the library except for mealtimes. If it weren't for the banquet held to celebrate her full moon, no one in Xinghu City would have known that the An family had a young lady.

An Ran was basking in the sun, communicating with Xiao Ai to use spiritual energy to cleanse her body, while quietly sorting out the information she had learned in the past few months in her mind.

The Vast Continent was completely different from the Earth she had previously inhabited. This was the name of the land she lived on. The Vast Continent was boundless and astonishingly large, and its inhabitants were countless. Its environment was similar to Earth's, with forests, deserts, oceans, and lakes. It was said that the Vast Continent had countless forests, among which the Misty Forest, Chaohu Forest, and Yanbugui Forest were known as the "Land of Death."

It is said that the outskirts of the Yaqi Continent are an ocean. The sea surface is shrouded in thick fog and nothing can be seen. As for what is in the sea, no one knows. Every year, countless explorers want to go to the sea to look for treasures. However, there are many people who go to the sea to explore every year, but only a few can return safely. After those people come back, no matter how outsiders ask, they remain silent about what happened in the sea!

Xinghu City, where the An family lives, is a small city under the Burt Empire, one of the four great empires. There are hundreds of such small cities in the Burt Empire. Although it is a small city, due to its geographical location, Xinghu City is the closest place to the Misty Forest in the Burt Empire, so it has always been a paradise for adventurers. A small city has become famous just because it is close to the Misty Forest, and there are countless talented people coming and going. Xinghu City has gradually become a small place that the Burt Empire cannot ignore.

The An family, a family with a thousand-year-old heritage in the city of Yibuyiqieqiang, existed before Xinghu City even became famous, but they had fallen into decline and were now a second-rate family. The An family was once a very glorious family, and for hundreds of years other families in Xinghu City could only look up to them. This was not only because of the An family's rich family background and astonishing wealth, but also because hundreds of years ago, the An family produced a venerable who led the empire to its peak!

On the Yaqi Continent, there are professions like magicians, martial artists, alchemists, and weapon refiners. Magicians are also divided into seven different types of magic, based on their practice: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, light, and darkness. Magicians and alchemists are quite rare in this world, with most being martial artists. However, because a magician can easily defeat a martial artist two levels higher than them, a martial artist can't easily defeat a magician three levels lower. Despite the significant difference in numbers, magicians and martial artists are of equal status.

The division of professional levels in the vast continent is very simple, from 1 to 9, which are the most well-known levels. Levels 1 to 3 are called elementary, levels 3 to 6 are called intermediate, and levels 7 to 9 are called advanced. Those who can reach level 9 are among the strongest in the empire. After obtaining the promise of the empire, they can come and go freely in the vast continent and be sought after wherever they go!

After level 9 comes the Commander level, a rarely known rank. The power of this stratum is significantly different from that of the ordinary class, a watershed that fundamentally divides power. The power possessed by the vassal lords of the empire belongs to some mysterious power that transcends the empire. Above the Commander level is the Monarch level, divided into three levels: Primary, Middle, and Senior. Each level of advancement to the Monarch level is extremely difficult. Those who reach this level are among the strongest of the strong, holding important positions and rarely appearing in public.

Above the Lord of the Base lies an even more elusive existence: the Venerable level, divided into three levels: primary, intermediate, and advanced. These powerful individuals are, without exception, demonic beings in the eyes of the world. The public exposure of the An family member brought this level of power to the public's consciousness, and no one is certain whether such powerful individuals still exist. If a Venerable were to strike, not only a small nation but even an entire empire could be reduced to scorched earth in an instant. What realm lies above the Venerable level remains unknown; no one has ever reached it.

When the emperor was defeated, he had originally planned to stay out of the world and live in seclusion. However, the Burt Empire was in great trouble. Under the oppression of the other three empires, the country was almost destroyed!

The venerable man from the An family stepped forward and turned the tide with his own strength, making the Bert Empire one of the three major empires!

In order to show his love for the An family, the emperor gave the An family countless wealth and fame. Even the royal family had to bow down and salute in front of the An family. From then on, the An family rose to prominence and became the most respected family in the Bert Empire, an existence that everyone could only look up to!
