Chapter 1746: Chapter 1307: The 3rd Method of Forming White Crystal
When Anthony discovered that the opponent was a similar type of adversary, he immediately became alert and quickly transformed into an Old God Stick.
With just one sentence, he hooked the opponent’s interest: I have clues on the tree spirit bounty, but you don’t have the tree spirit’s reward...
"Haha, your star dust or whatever, doesn’t interest me at all. The tree spirit wouldn’t offer such stingy things as rewards. You’re disgracing the tree spirit," Anthony said bluntly.
"You..." Olette was a bit angry, being called stingy and accused of disgracing the tree spirit was too much, but the more impolite Anthony was, the less Olette dared to underestimate him.
Glancing at Anthony and then at the Lightning and Luther beside him, Olette thought for a moment and said, "You don’t care for star dust, what about star crystals... white crystals? Do you want white crystals?"
"White crystals? White crystals are good stuff, but you only have one. What’s the use? I could easily kill a few star descendants and pick up a few," Anthony said arrogantly, his tone very cocky.
Olette studied Anthony seriously for a while, then slowly asked, "How many do you want?"
"At least a hundred and eighty," Anthony replied.
"What did you say? How many? You think they’re tree trash, a hundred and eighty? What do you need so many white crystals for?" asked Olette.
"To upgrade the star descendants in our Commerce Guild. Many of our star descendants can’t star shift; I need white crystals that can star shift to upgrade all of them. Can your white crystals star shift? Where did you get them?" Anthony said.
Olette was amused and annoyed: "It seems you have no sincerity for trading at all, forget it, just leave."
"It seems you don’t have a hundred and eighty white crystals, forget it, goodbye." Anthony jumped back, mounted Lightning, and then transmitted a message to their souls, "Go, keep moving out, when I tell you to virtualize, do it immediately and attach to me."
Initially, Lightning was a bit puzzled, as Anthony’s behavior wasn’t typical, immediately scolding the opponent with a bad tone, unlike the usual calm Old God Stick.
However, upon hearing the last sentence, Lightning and Luther immediately realized Anthony was doing it on purpose. Without drawing attention, they responded and picked up their pace.
The terrain on the leaf was very complex, with intricate vein-like structures, resembling massive mountain ranges. Between the mountains were large ravines, which looked flat from afar but felt complicated when within.
Entering one of the ravines, until Olette and the hidden enemies couldn’t see them directly anymore, Anthony promptly said, "Virtualize."
Lightning and Luther immediately virtualized, attaching to Anthony, and with a swoosh, they all disappeared.
When they reappeared, they had soul-shifted to another nearby ravine.
"Wow, star shifting? Lord Anthony, did you swap for white crystals?" Lightning asked, shocked.
When Anthony had them virtualize earlier, Lightning had a vague suspicion, but was still shocked after it was confirmed. This ability was extremely useful, as Lightning, despite its title, couldn’t outrun the Little Angel because of the lack of star shifting ability, which was embarrassing.
Anthony replied, "It’s not star shifting; it’s soul shifting. I’ll teach you later," then gestured for silence.
Soon, Olette’s voice suddenly appeared: "Gone? Where did they run off to? Can’t you see them?"
"No, I’ve been watching them. They went into this ravine and never came out. But there’s nothing in this ravine, not even a place to hide anything," replied another unfamiliar voice.
"Could they have used star shifting to leave?" the second unfamiliar voice speculated.
"Impossible, they don’t have star shifting abilities. They’re just low-level star descendants, who’ve learned some skills and techniques, but they can’t possibly learn star shifting. Search, they’re definitely hiding nearby; find them even if you have to turn over the ground," Olette said.
The first unfamiliar voice complained, "You should have captured them earlier; then we wouldn’t have to be searching now."
Olette replied, "I told you to track them, find their nest. If we capture them, where would I find their nest, you fool."
Though bickering, their actions were swift, already turning over every ravine, pushing aside all the star soil, revealing every piece of debris, thoroughly searching, and judging by the noise, there were certainly more than three star descendants.
Feeling the commotion moving towards their position, Anthony signaled for Lightning and Luther to virtualize again, and with a swoosh, they soul-shifted once more.
After several soul shifts, Anthony suddenly discovered the two advantages of soul shifting compared to star shifting: quieter, and can turn corners.
Just how quiet? So quiet that the enemy was nearly stomping on them, and the slight ripple from the soul shift was undetectable.
Secondly, it could turn corners; star shifting cannot. It can only move forward in a straight line, and if there’s an obstruction, it stops.
However, soul shifting allows you to move wherever your soul reaches; whether it’s a confined space or an obstructed barrier, as long as the soul can penetrate, you can soul shift there.
This skill is perfect for black warriors’ spatial shifts, moving unnoticed, Anthony’s group performed three soul shifts back to the meeting place with Olette, hiding within a trench.
After safely hiding, Anthony curiously asked, "Earlier, Olette mentioned you learned some skills. How did it know? Did you fight before?"
Luther answered, "We fought once, almost chopped off one of its subordinates."
"What level is its subordinate?" queried Anthony.
"About the same as Olette. These star descendants have poor combat skills. If not for my lack of power, slow movement, and inability to find their white crystal spots, I could have taken them down one by one with a single sword," Luther said confidently.
In the eyes of a genius Sword Saint like him, these star descendants were just big brawny clods, but their size was indeed an advantage. However, the outcome was that neither side could take down the other.
Because of this, it actually deterred Olette, making him believe that Luther had significant backing, so he didn’t dare to act rashly at first.
Without needing further explanation, naturally, Anthony and his group were nowhere to be found. Olette could only return frustrated, staying for half a day before finally leaving the nest alone, heading towards the trunk.
From leaf stems to branches and then to the trunk, the journey was like traversing mountains and rivers. When arriving at the trunk, the grooves of the bark were like ocean trenches, each randomly stretching dozens of kilometers deep, where the huge-bodied star descendants would dive in and disappear.
Anthony trailed from afar, almost losing track several times, and finally, Olette stopped at a spot on the trunk, extended a claw, and scratched into the bark, extracting a white crystal.
Anthony, shocked, reported to Ange, "Lord, these white crystals were born on the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms. This is the third method of obtaining white crystals."
