How Fortunate
The significance of uniting and winning over one's own people stems from the enemy. Therefore, the emergence of a powerful Scholar who is overwhelmed with problems in this era is either a natural phenomenon or a result of Scholars trying to win over their own people.
Survivors often have keen intuition.
Su Luo glanced at [Silk Woman] with surprise, but didn't tell her the truth. Instead, she asked a completely unrelated question:
"Have you ever seen a local who looks ordinary but whose strength is roughly equivalent to the peak of the Purple Violet Palace in the previous era? He looks like this..."
Su Luo projected Qi Yuan's image onto the screen.
He had searched tirelessly for Qi Yuan throughout this era, turning the world upside down except for Small Worlds like [Dragon Valley] and [Realm Left Behind by the World]. He had searched the Demon Realm, roughly looked through the [Dream World], and even briefly examined the Miasma Zone below.
But they still couldn't find Qi Yuan, this special individual.
Song Shige is currently cultivating, Dora doesn't recognize Qi Yuan, so it would be better to ask [Silk Woman] directly.
"This person is long dead."
[The Silk Woman] frowned slightly.
"He was in the small space from the previous era that you maintained, and after the Survivors disappeared, he was left behind just like us unlucky Survivors."
"We didn't even have to lift a finger; it was just the space itself collapsing, and under the onslaught of the high-energy Chaos torrent, he was utterly powerless to resist and perished directly in the turbulence."
Su Luo frowned as well.
Damn, how could Qi Yuan be such a maggot? He drowned himself, that's all.
Leaving aside why Qi Yuan didn't travel to the next era when his era ended, the mere fact that Qi Yuan died is already a difficult issue to resolve.
He's not Survivor; he'll be Resurrection in the next era.
He travels between different eras but retains his state, and perhaps even his state of death. He may not have fixed NPCs in each era like the natives. Anyway, Su Luo has put so many souls into her Dreamscape but still hasn't found Qi Yuan.
That would be difficult. Qi Yuan must possess the secret of Large Dungeon, and his death might mean that this connection is severed forever.
The case is solved.
The Unique Dao Lord destroyed the world for that man, but could never bring him back...
"Okay, I understand, thank you."
Su Luo turned her head and continued to wander around the [Wasteland] with the black stick.
The spatial logic of the [Wasteland] is peculiar; at least all Survivors can see that the [Wasteland] is surrounded by scarlet flesh walls on all sides, seemingly no more than a hundred kilometers away.
But when they actually tried to get close, they could never get near the scarlet flesh wall.
This extraordinary example of advanced spatial technology is the [Close at Hand, Worlds Apart] in the cultivation world.
Su Luo circled around for most of the distance and finally confirmed that the black rod was facing one direction with the highest temperature, exceeding nine million degrees Celsius at one point. If there hadn't been no matter medium in this space, it would have exploded on the spot.
This is also where the Survival System provides direction.
Without hesitation, he walked towards the fleshy wall.
In the [Close at Hand, Worlds Apart] type of space that no Survivor could leave, Su Luo, holding the black stick, approached the scarlet flesh wall effortlessly, moving through without hindrance.
The next moment, the thick, scarlet flesh seemed to come alive, wriggling and opening with a hint of reluctance, splitting open a "()"-shaped crack, instantly swallowing Su Luo's body completely inside.
"Wow, Scholars are so lucky!" Dora exclaimed in surprise.
What exactly are system Exploration Quest, and how do they work?
Su Luo actually knew.
This isn't hard to guess; it's easy to deduce.
The system Exploration Quest is completed by exploring the locations designated by the system.
If you are not currently able to reach that location, the system will only indicate that the direction has been given, but the Survivor will not be able to see it. Su Luo had encountered this situation before.
The exploration process is quite simple, much like most university courses; all you need to do is show up.
Even just standing still and turning around 360 degrees means you've explored a small area.
No research or decryption is needed; simply exploring most of the area is often not difficult.
After exploring the ruins of a lost civilization, the system will extract a powerful technology from that Lost Civilization and combine it with the system's characteristics to create unique skills for the Survivors.
Su Luo's [Enhanced Perception], [Storage Conversion], and [Power of All Beings] are examples of this.
Among them, [Enhanced Perception] and [Power of All Beings] both come from [The Eternal Night Court], not to mention Dreamscape transmission technology and Dreamscape Fragments. Su Luo truly inherited the legacy of a Lost Civilization.
So the Machine Fortress is currently useless, and Su Luo is keeping it alive.
Aside from Yun Xiaoxiao and some other Survivors, no one has a bad opinion of Su Luo's character.
The real challenge of the Exploration Quest lies in the various dangers along the way; even Su Luo cannot run rampant in the current Land of Darkness.
So here's the question... is Exploration Quest outside the Land of Darkness reasonable?
Survival Systems often have a clear boundary: monster stats, system items, Exploration Quests... Survival Systems are incredibly powerful, but also extremely limited.
For example, all creatures in the Land of Darkness, except for Survivors and newly fallen members of civilizations, have monster stats, even the Observers.
Killing these monsters will grant you experience points.
The creatures outside the Land of Darkness, apart from other Survival Worlds, do not have a monster panel, and killing them does not grant any level or experience.
This seems to be a limitation of Survival Systems in various worlds.
So... what about Exploration Quest?
The Survival System's related powers are concentrated in the Survival World.
Did Su Luo actually leave the Land of Darkness?
Su Luo opened her eyes.
She lost consciousness the instant she entered the flesh wall, and during that brief moment of loss of consciousness, this thought sent chills down Su Luo's spine.
In a brightly lit, simply furnished reception room, a man sat opposite with a somber expression.
"Hello, Scholar, Luosu, or Su Luo."
Upon seeing who was opposite her, Su Luo couldn't help but frown.
This man is...
Qi Yuan.
