"Could be, but it's not widely accepted," Zane shrugged and said. "Perhaps using dinsional crystals as currency is too troubleso, hard to carry or store. Hey, Fang Heng, those two following us—are they sent by the God Clan?"
"Mm, ignore them."
Fang Heng had already noticed the two martial artists tailing not far behind, but he paid them no mind.
At least on Dinsional Emperor Island, he was safe.
Soon, Fang Heng stopped in front of a stall and looked over the discs displayed on the table.
Star discs!
The table was densely filled with star discs.
Behind the stall sat a young alien.
A mber of the Star Clan.
Fang Heng rembered reading descriptions of the Star Clan in God Clan books.
The Star Clan's strength was relatively ordinary, but they could craft a large number of items imbued with spatial power, and their craftsmanship was extrely exquisite.
Zane knew Fang Heng had co to buy a star disc. He looked up and called out to the Star Clan youth. "Hey, you! How do you price these? Do you want sothing in exchange?"
The Star Clan boy responded calmly, "Gentlen, each star disc here is crafted by our clan artisans as a fine piece. Each has its corresponding value. Point out which one you are interested in, and I will tell you the exchange conditions."
Zane frowned and muttered under his breath, "Hmph, so arrogant... little brother, I'm just saying, doing business like this could get you beaten... where's your elders?"
Fang Heng lowered his head. Beneath his hood, the God's Eye appeared, spinning rapidly.
Under the God's Eye, the strength of each star disc was completely visible.
Interesting.
Along the way, Fang Heng had seen many star discs, but the ones at this stall were on average several levels higher than normal stalls.
Especially the one in the top right corner.
It looked ordinary, but subtly radiated a trace of star essence.
Its strength was extrely high and perfectly compatible with him.
Fang Heng stepped closer, pointing at the top right star disc. "Little brother, how would you like to exchange this one?"
The Star Clan boy's eyes lit up as he saw the disc Fang Heng indicated. He glanced at the hooded figure and said, "Impressive eyesight, sir. This star disc belongs to our clan's Great Elder as an inheritance. It was not ant for sale, but our clan has recently encountered significant troubles, and we must try our luck at the Martial Apex Tournant."
"This item I will not sell. You only need to agree to accompany to our clan seven days from now. For the following three days, if you can successfully guard the ancestral star source without losing it, this star disc will be yours now."
Fang Heng's mind stirred. What was the ancestral star source?
Seeing Fang Heng hesitate, the boy said, "Sir, you only need to promise to try your best. If it truly cannot be done, then it is fate. Our clan will not hold any grievance, and the star disc will still be offered respectfully."
Fang Heng considered it.
That could be an option.
But seven days later?
He had inquired and knew the Martial Apex Tournant's preliminary rounds were scheduled very loosely.
One match in the morning and one in the afternoon each day, with the first round taking a full month to complete.
If he could negotiate with Tiger Venerable to enter early, or delay until the last match, he could afford to spend three days accompanying the boy.
Fang Heng said, "Alright, I agree. Where should I et you seven days from now?"
"Seven days later, at seven in the morning, right here."
"Hey, kid," Zane said, seeing how straightforward the boy was in giving the item, "aren't you worried we might renege later?"
The boy gazed at them and nodded. "I trust you, gentlen."
"Heh, clever kid."
Zane smirked. He saw that the boy's strength was fairly ordinary, and if a hostile martial artist appeared, keeping the star disc would be useless anyway.
"Let's go."
Fang Heng picked up the star disc and instantly placed it into his backpack.
...
Half an hour later, Fang Heng and Zane ca back to the tower belonging to Tiger Venerable.
They had been on Dinsional Emperor Island for five days, but this was Fang Heng's first ti back to the tower.
Entering an empty, large cultivation room, Fang Heng imdiately closed his eyes and sat down, placing the star disc before him. He condensed his spirit and quickly entered the sea of consciousness.
Astrology!
Instantly, a galaxy filled with countless stars appeared.
The star disc emitted a deep blue light, illuminating the entire room.
For a mont, Zane, who stayed in the cultivation room with Fang Heng, felt as if he were standing in a vast galaxy.
Thousands upon thousands of stars flowed rapidly.
Fang Heng opened his eyes again.
The star disc could materialize the spatial environnt of the galaxy within the sea of consciousness into the real world, greatly improving projection efficiency.
The star disc purchased from the Star Clan was top quality, with extrely high ntal strength utilization.
Zane watched the dense stars around them and felt secretly astonished.
Good grief.
In just a few days, what new skills had Fang Heng learned?
Fang Heng nodded slightly and began controlling the star disc to perform projections.
The dense stars gradually evolved under the disc's influence.
More than an hour passed. The stars' movent slowed until they ca to a halt.
Fang Heng's forehead was covered in sweat.
He had pushed the projection to the extre.
Even with a high-tier star disc assisting, the progress still did not satisfy him.
At present, he had gathered three types of information from the celestial observations.
They corresponded to the past, present, and future.
From the past tiline, he discovered that the Black Orb had been carefully hidden by soone among thousands of gas and had not been discovered since.
This information seed almost useless.
Fang Heng had a strong intuition.
The person who hid the Black Orb was likely Ymir, the creator of the ga world.
From the current tiline, he found that the Black Orb was located in a top-level ga world, currently without a normal entrance, a hidden world.
The key to entering this hidden world was in the hands of a woman.
Through his projection of her, Fang Heng quickly obtained her appearance.
It was her...
Charlene!
He rembered that when he last parted from Charlene, she had ntioned pursuing mission lines related to her spawns, attempting to construct a spaceship, and seeking ways to push the limits of her stamina. After that, she had disappeared.
Perhaps Charlene had accidentally co into contact with the world key?
"Black Castle..."
Fang Heng murmured.
He suddenly wondered if the na of the Black Castle organization had any connection to the Black Orb.
Could it be that long ago soone already possessed the key to the world containing the Black Orb?
Fang Heng shook his head lightly.
It was too hasty to conclude now.
At least he had a lead.
As long as he found a way to contact Black Castle, finding Charlene would not be a problem. At worst, he might enlist the Central Federation's strength; locating one person would be manageable.
Finally, the search for the black Ga Orb had direction.
