Chapter 1624: Chapter 1624

Finally returned to Earth. Looking at Earth’s time, quite a lot has passed this time—several months in the blink of an eye. No, it should be said more than half a year has already gone by, primarily because the Star Ring World is too high-level.

If the levels continue to increase, the time interval will only grow longer. Counting carefully, this time Du You spent over two years in the Star Ring World. The rapid acceleration of Earth’s time is largely due to its growing influence later on.

But during these past two years, Du You hasn’t felt much of a change. It seems his sense of time has begun to blur.

There’s no way around it; as one’s strength increases, many things naturally undergo transformation.

The moment they learned of Du You’s return, Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao rushed back. Not wanting to distract Du You, the two women had endured their inner longing and refrained from seeking him out in the Star Ring World.

More than half a year’s separation at once—their feelings were beyond words.

Fortunately, the Yalan Continent World had already been completely brought under control, aligning its time with that of Earth. Otherwise, their waiting time would have been even longer; neither of them yet possesses Du You’s current sense of time.

Du You feels that his changing perception of time might be due to shifts in his soul.

Indeed, if Tier Seven experts were still that sensitive to time, the endless stretch of life would be just as unbearable as for ordinary people—even leading some to feel utterly disenchanted. Yet Du You has never heard of a Tier Seven expert saying they’ve had enough of existence.

Without speaking, the two women rushed straight into Du You’s arms. Upon seeing this, the two sisters quietly retreated, closing the room’s door behind them. A series of peculiar sounds soon emerged.

By the time everything settled, the two women had already lost consciousness.

The next morning, when the two woke up and saw Du You beside them, memories of yesterday’s frenzy brought an involuntary blush to their faces. In the height of their joy, even certain positions they’d usually decline to explore had been unlocked under Du You’s lead. At this moment they felt like ostriches, yearning to bury themselves.

But now, apart from retreating under the blanket, was there anywhere else to hide?

The whirlwind of emotion diluted the long-standing yearning and completely dispelled the faint sense of estrangement between them. After all, they were all Professionals. Under unequal strength, prolonged separation was naturally to be expected.

Throwing all their energy into cultivation, Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao’s advancement speed had been extremely rapid.

Coupled with the resource supply of this world, the two are now nearing Tier Six. Even their team members have all progressed to Tier Five, far outpacing the rate of improvement they had experienced at the academy.

Such full-scale support from an entire world and this level of resource distribution—something even top-tier families cannot rival.

It’s no surprise that their progression speed would be so astonishing. Of course, this is also because their foundational skillset isn’t as freakishly robust as Du You’s. If it were like Du You, rapid advancement wouldn’t be possible anyway.

"Tell me about your experiences during this time." Du You spoke softly, his tone tinged with concern.

For the two to achieve such rapid advancements, the risks they faced must have been considerable. Without the relentless effort behind the scenes, who could achieve such accomplishments? Upon hearing this, the two women leaned closer to Du You.

They then began recounting their experiences during this period. Their hearts carried tidal waves of longing from not seeing Du You for so long. To suppress this yearning, they had no choice but to occupy themselves with tasks—leading their team on a mad hunt throughout the world and undertaking various missions.

In each operation, the intelligence network of the Yalan Continent assisted in finding suitable locations, even preemptively identifying target positions and analyzing the most appropriate missions available.

Dedicated personnel conducted all of these arrangements.

Every time before action, they used special measures to drive the Professionals of this world to other areas, ensuring exclusive access to sites.

Even then, the two encountered numerous dangers. Though they didn’t go into detail, Du You could still sense it. Many times, only through Shaliya’s intervention behind the scenes were they able to navigate out of peril.

Of course, such interventions invariably reduced their rewards to minimal levels. But over the past half-year, the two had tirelessly hunted and sought objectives, achieving the maximum possible speed of advancement.

Additionally, the potential advancement materials collected across the continent enabled their team members to progress their skills faster than they themselves had in the past. This is the key reason their team was able to swiftly reach Tier Five.

With increasing power levels, the two gradually realized that their weaker teammates were providing less and less meaningful assistance. There was no other option. The two were now planning to slow down to allow the rest of their team to catch up.

They couldn’t be like Du You, who could sweep through everything with just three people. At the very least, they needed to maintain a complete team composition.

"Hmph, this time Moyuer reaped the greatest benefit." Li Mengyao huffed in frustration.

"What happened? Weren’t the best rewards always prioritized for you two? Could it be a piece of equipment suitable for a parish priest?"

Xi Qianxue softly explained, "It’s not equipment—it’s a skill. When we eradicated an Evil Cult not long ago, we acquired a Light Attribute Revive Skill, and Moyuer was the only one capable of learning it."

"Revive Skill? You managed to find that? Truly lucky. Seems we’ll need to nurture Moyuer well from now on. As long as we can protect her, even if someone dies accidentally, they can be revived."

"Of course, that’s exactly what we’re doing. Still, it’s no match for your Dark Resurrection." The rıghtful source is 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩

Xi Qianxue further explained, "Moyuer’s revive skill allows her to resurrect the dead, but the revived individual’s level drops by five tiers, and their skills are sealed accordingly. In more severe cases, one of the revived person’s skills may even be permanently lost. And its maximum effective time limit is just three days post-death."

Du You froze for a moment, surprised by such a disparity. That was supposed to be a specialized healing ability.

His own, despite not being profession-specific, could resurrect individuals who had been dead for up to seven days before his breakthrough—and that’s with the Dark Attribute, which pales in capability compared to Light Attribute powers. Most importantly, his revivals came with no loss of strength—only temporary weakness.

Skills of higher tiers truly exhibit unmatched superiority; he hadn’t realized until now how extraordinary they were.

"Even so, it’s already an impressive ability. At the end of the day, nothing matters more than life itself. Besides, from what I’ve seen in records of other resurrection abilities, most aren’t even close to what Moyuer’s skill offers."
