Each faction could only pour all their resources into military readiness and exhaust every means to obtain intelligence on Yuanwu Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Cang Luo’s interdimensional live-stream was the easiest and most prioritized way to acquire intelligence on Yuanwu Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Cang Luo’s live-stream had been offline for nearly three hours, because he had discovered a damsel in distress and went to rescue her, saying he might bring her on camera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, netizens waited with a mix of excitement and jealousy, eager for Cang Luo to resume streaming and for the damsel to appear on screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A damsel from Yuanwu Continent—netizens from every country wanted to see how she differed from Earth’s women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, videos uploaded by Cang Luo had featured women, but due to mobile phone filming, details were unclear and there were no close-ups, so it was as good as none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens patiently waited in the live-stream room, but no matter how long they waited, Cang Luo did not return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, Cang Luo posted a Weibo with photos and brief descriptions of two demon beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was a gray-furred demon beast with a leopard’s body and a goat’s head; Cang Luo said it was a Level-Two Thunder-attribute demon beast, Thunder Leopard Goat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was a blue-furred tiger at least five meters long; Cang Luo introduced it as a Level-Five demon beast, Shadow Tiger, though still in its growth phase, its strength equaled that of a Level-Two demon beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo added that he had already slain the demon beasts, was unharmed, and urged netizens not to worry—he had successfully rescued the damsel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens browsing the photos of the two demon beasts all stared blankly at Cang Luo’s final line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who the hell cares about your safety? If you’ve already rescued the damsel, then start streaming and show her on camera! At the very least, post a few photos of her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You only post photos of demon beasts, not the damsel—what’s your intention?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens were desperate to see the damsel and flooded the comments with @CangLuo, demanding he post photos of her—even if he couldn’t take a frontal shot, candid shots would do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Cang Luo did not reply to any comments, nor did he resume streaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens exploded: Where’s the damsel?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One netizen speculated that Cang Luo was engaged in some illicit act with the damsel, which was why he had no time to post Weibo or stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many agreed with this guess, believing Cang Luo had seen the damsel’s breathtaking beauty and, overcome by lust, was forcing himself on her...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, netizens lamented bitterly, pounding their chests in anguish, indignant and heartbroken for the damsel they had never met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that this lucky, lowly scumbag Cang Luo had ruined their goddess?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens were frustrated and heartbroken, frantically refreshing Cang Luo’s Weibo and live-stream, desperate to know the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Cang Luo’s Weibo and live-stream remained utterly silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than two hours later, Cang Luo posted another Weibo: nine photos—one of him with Uesugi Emiko, and eight solo shots of Uesugi Emiko in various poses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as this Weibo appeared, netizens burst into tears of joy—they had finally gotten their damsel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the damsel, every netizen simultaneously thought of the same word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Goddess!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A true goddess!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a goddess of plastic surgery, not a goddess of makeup, not a goddess of beauty filters or Photoshop—but a natural, unaltered goddess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the photos, the goddess had shoulder-length brown-red hair, symmetrical features, large eyes, slender eyebrows, a nose of perfect proportion, lips full and ripe as if dripping with dew, fair skin flawless and spotless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her figure was beyond compare; though her clothes were slightly loose and ill-fitting, the curves of her bust and hips were unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo added a caption: “This is a damsel from Yuanwu Continent—she’s a martial cultivator, a disciple of the Imperial-Rank sect, Five Elements Hall, at Level-One General cultivation base. I won’t say her name.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve noticed that martial cultivators on Yuanwu Continent all have handsome men and beautiful women—no matter the figure, just their faces: not a single blemish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, I used to have some freckles on my face, but after becoming a martial cultivator, they vanished—meaning martial cultivators possess the ability to remove blemishes and beautify skin...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do martial cultivators possess superhuman strength and also beauty-enhancing abilities?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Male netizens were stunned; female netizens went wild. Compared to martial cultivation, women cared far more about their appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, women who previously had no interest in martial cultivation now desired to become cultivators more than men did...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Netizens debated endlessly, praising Uesugi Emiko’s beauty and figure, eagerly anticipating the day the two worlds would connect so they too could become martial cultivators—temporarily forgetting their earlier suspicions about what Cang Luo had done to their goddess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, one netizen posted: “Cang Luo said the goddess is a disciple of the Imperial-Rank sect, Five Elements Hall—but why is she wearing the same robe as Cang Luo’s Xuantian Sect uniform? There’s an ‘Xuan’ character on her left chest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look closer—the clothes are clearly too big. I bet the goddess is wearing Cang Luo’s robe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is the goddess wearing Cang Luo’s clothes?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When netizens saw this Weibo, they froze—then erupted in rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The goddess was wearing Cang Luo’s clothes—what did that mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happened between them during the three hours his stream was offline?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, Cang Luo’s Weibo exploded—countless male netizens condemned him, demanding to know what he had done to their goddess...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo, on Yuanwu Continent, had no idea his Weibo had been overrun, that he had become the public enemy of hundreds of millions of male netizens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he was leading Uesugi Emiko, the goddess of countless male netizens, hunting demon beasts—seeking mutated ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Cang Luo, mutated demon beasts were demon beasts with genetic mutations—like white lions, white tigers, two-headed snakes, or cows with an extra leg on Earth. These were extremely rare events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Earth, such genetic mutations almost always harmed the animal, causing disease, drastically shortening lifespan and weakening physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their only use was for research or display in zoos to charge admission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if a demon beast on Yuanwu Continent underwent a genetic mutation, it was entirely beneficial—its power far surpassed that of normal demon beasts, even rivaling the leader-class of its kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, Cang Luo’s beast companion, Double-Headed Flame-Devouring Wolf, had two wolf heads—thus two demon cores—meaning its Yuan energy was twice that of a normal Flame-Devouring Wolf, effectively doubling its combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was before. Now, Erha could share Cang Luo’s infinite Yuan energy; with proper use, its combat power had increased more than tenfold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mutated demon beasts offered countless advantages and were the dream companions of martial cultivators—but they were exceedingly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuantian Sect had ten thousand outer disciples and three thousand inner disciples, yet Cang Luo had never heard of any disciple possessing a mutated beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear how unlikely it was for Uesugi Emiko to find and subdue a mutated beast companion—Cang Luo had spent an entire afternoon using satellite scans and found not a single suspected mutated demon beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t entirely fruitless: Cang Luo slew six lone Level-Two demon beasts and obtained six Level-Two demon cores, giving Uesugi Emiko two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level-Two demon beasts were significantly stronger than Level-One, yet their intelligence barely improved—they were merely tougher-skinned and thicker-fleshed compared to human martial cultivators of equal strength; humans could easily outwit them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uesugi Emiko was at Level-One General cultivation base; she and Erha distracted the enemy while Cang Luo, wielding a Grade-Three longsword, launched the main assault—easily slaying them...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, night fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two ended their hunt, found a safe spot, lit a fire, and set up a tent for the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was only one tent. Cang Luo, upright and righteous, said: “Miss Uesugi, you sleep in the tent. I’ll sleep outside—I can keep watch...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished, Uesugi Emiko immediately shook her head: “Cang Jun, you are my savior—twice you rescued me from peril. I am eternally grateful and have no way to repay you. How could I let you keep watch?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled her body closer and continued: “Nights in the demon beast forest are bitterly cold. Please come inside the tent to rest. Isn’t Erha here to keep watch?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uesugi Emiko was right. Cang Luo had no reply. Wasn’t Erha here to keep watch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo, embarrassed, said: “That doesn’t seem proper. If your senior brother finds out, it’ll be bad—after all, men and women must maintain proper boundaries...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uesugi Emiko quickly shook her head: “I won’t tell anyone, so your senior brother won’t know. Besides, men and women sharing a room is nothing unusual in our Japan—we even have mixed-gender public hot springs...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo paused. Japan was this open? It was somewhat like a certain island nation on Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, after Uesugi Emiko’s persistent persuasion, Cang Luo entered the tent with her, while Erha stayed outside to keep watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo wasn’t truly afraid of the cold—he cultivated the Earth-Grade Superior Yang cultivation scripture, Body-Consuming Divine Art, and was immune to cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor was he tempted to do anything improper in the tent—he simply wanted to confirm whether Uesugi Emiko truly intended to steal his phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the tent, Cang Luo did not immediately sleep or cultivate. Instead, he took out the Shadow Tiger’s demon core, intending to swallow it and see if he could break through to General cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uesugi Emiko suddenly said: “Cang Jun, are you going to swallow the Shadow Tiger’s demon core directly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Cang Luo nod, she hurriedly said: “Cang Jun, absolutely not! Though Feng Qingyun’s Shadow Tiger is still immature, it is undeniably a Level-Five demon beast—its demon core contains violently chaotic Yuan energy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You are at Level-Nine Warrior. If you swallow it directly, you will almost certainly explode from inability to suppress its chaotic energy. You must refine it into an elixir before safely consuming it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo was startled. Was this true? But after thinking it over, he decided better safe than sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had only one life—he couldn’t risk it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he pulled out a Level-Two demon core and asked: “Then is it safe to consume a Level-Two demon core?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uesugi Emiko nodded: “Yes. Your actual strength far exceeds your cultivation base—you could safely consume a Level-Three demon core.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo exhaled in relief, thanked her, then promptly swallowed the Level-Two demon core and began circulating his scripture to refine it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Uesugi Emiko also swallowed a Level-Two demon core and sat beside Cang Luo to refine it...\u003C\u002Fp>",1918,"2026-06-21T06:04:04.528Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","154dbca8593f943f970efc294762142011b1506d6b19e828b5fb42ea1d602a7e","high-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-chapter-112","high-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-chapter-110",157,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhigh-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-cover.jpg"]
