Chapter 348: Extra (10)
After answering Zhou Qi and Tang Yu’an’s questions, Turs took them on a tour of the underground city.
“A world of fairies? That’s amazing!”
Hearing Turs describe the inscription, Tang Yu’an couldn’t help but marvel.
Back when Turs had stuffed that miniature stone cabinet into the drift bottle, it could only store ordinary objects. But now, it could shrink living beings?
He looked at Turs’s graying hair, thought for a moment, and asked, “Turs, would you be interested in coming to our world?”
Turs was stunned. “Your world?”
“Yes.”
Tang Yu’an nodded. He had originally wanted to invite Turs to live long-term in the Giant World, but since they hadn’t yet tested whether the teleportation array would work, he decided to hold off on that part.
“Mm, wait a bit—we’ll go back to the RV and check first!”
Then he grabbed Zhou Qi and flew back the way they came.
Turs was briefly dazed by their sudden departure, then quickly chased after them. “Wait, do you even know the way?!”
The underground city wasn’t just their residence—it had also been designed as a labyrinth to defend against beast invasions. Without familiarity, it was easy to get lost.
But as Turs followed behind the two teens, he noticed they made their way back to his workshop without hesitation, taking the correct route the entire way.
These two… Their mental strength must be extremely powerful!
While it was true Tang Yu’an and Zhou Qi had strong mental power, the real reason they didn’t get lost was because Tang Yu’an had a map!
Now that he had leveled up, the fog of war around the RV on the map would automatically clear.
Truth be told, when Tang Yu’an first opened the map, he was shocked—red dots densely covered the entire area.
Thankfully, after adjusting the view, he realized that those red dots, which represented dangerous creatures, were all on the surface. Once he filtered the map view by area, the red dots disappeared.
And that alone spoke volumes about how dangerous Turs’s location really was.
Tang Yu’an and Zhou Qi returned to the RV. After entering the general store’s space, they headed to the teleportation array in the attic.
[Please select the branch you want to travel to]
[1. Huaxia General Store]
[2. Ping An General Store Branch No. 1]
[…]
Because the general store space was bound to the main plane—i.e., the Giant Plane—even the flow of time was synchronized. As long as the main store existed, they could return to the Giant Plane at any time from other dimensions, without needing a new Plane Locator Stone.
That made things very convenient!
After testing and confirming that the teleportation array could indeed return them home, Tang Yu’an finally relaxed.
By now, they’d been gone for over half a month.
Thinking about everything they had done in that time—inside the general store and the drift bottle—Tang Yu’an’s face flushed red.
Luckily, nobody else knew… except the system.
But even the system was forcibly put into sleep mode before each session.
After stopping home to greet their parents, Tang Yu’an and Zhou Qi returned to the main store’s attic. Before leaving again, they tested the time difference between the Giant Plane and Roland Plane.
Strangely enough, there wasn’t much difference in time flow. They couldn’t even feel a lag.
“System, what’s going on?” Tang Yu’an asked.
If time moved similarly between planes, why had Turs aged so much?
[Time is one of the most mysterious and complex laws]
[You just happened to arrive at this world’s timeline at this particular point]
Scratching his head, Tang Yu’an asked, “So next time I return, could I go back to decades earlier?”
[No]
“Why not?”
[Question exceeds knowledge base—unable to answer]
“…Fine.”
Tang Yu’an shrugged and turned to Zhou Qi. “Brother Xiao Qi, let’s go get Teacher Turs and bring him to the Giant Plane.”
“Should we have someone prepare a place for him first?”
“Mm, good idea.”
There was no shortage of housing now. The Giant Plane had vast lands, and with the help of people from Huaxia to plan and build, it was developing rapidly—getting better by the day.
They had A-Lian arrange for a standalone house with a courtyard in the home base. Only then did they return to the Roland Plane.
Turs and Little Biscuit were waiting outside the RV.
“Let’s go, Teacher Turs—come to our world!”
Tang Yu’an smiled. “It’s safe in the homeland. You’ll get to bask in sunlight and breathe fresh air. I’m sure you’ll love it.”
Upon hearing that, Little Biscuit immediately chimed in, “I want to go too! Me too!”
“Haha, sure! Come along!”
The little sprite flew over to Turs, tugged on his hair, and said, “Turs, let’s go to the new world. I want to go.”
Turs hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
He still felt uneasy about leaving the underground city, but if it was just to look around and come back soon, he didn’t mind taking the trip.
After all, it had been so long since he’d last seen the sun…
Tang Yu’an switched the general store’s space to a new interior design, moved the teleportation array to the living room, and then brought the two guests into the array.
The teleportation light flared, and when it faded, they had arrived inside the teleportation room of the swimming facility in the homeland city of Desolate Town.
Sunlight streamed through the windows—bright and warm.
On Turs’s pale face, marked by years spent underground, a trace of wonder and yearning appeared. Tears welled in his eyes.
“It’s been so long since I’ve seen sunlight… it’s a little blinding.”
He raised his hand to wipe his eyes, but suddenly froze.
A dazzling light burst from his body, flooding the entire room.
Tang Yu’an, who had a divine body and wielded light-based powers, was unaffected. He stared at Turs in surprise, sensing the rapidly rising energy within him.
He could feel the surrounding spiritual energy surging toward Turs, forming a vortex!
But the most shocking part—Turs’s appearance.
He was rejuvenating at a visible speed!
His previously white hair turned black. The wrinkles on his face smoothed out. His thin, withered frame grew stronger and fuller…
By the time the light faded, the once-aged Turs had become young again.
Turs stared at his hands, utterly stunned.
He had broken through!
His Elementalist level, suppressed for decades, suddenly shattered its limitations—blasting past 2-star and straight to 5-star in one leap!
