Chương 97: Planning and Materials
Anping sensed the anger in both Gu Yuena and Di Tian when he revealed that the Dragon Clan Cemetery had been turned into a training ground for the Tang Sect's disciples. But they were powerless to change anything.
Gu Yuena gripped his hand tightly, as if subconsciously seeking comfort. Anping gently patted her hand and said, "It's a power that has lasted for 20,000 years. It's not surprising that they would do something like this. Don't worry, we'll find a way."
Gu Yuena took a deep breath and asked Di Tian calmly, "Di Tian, can you tell me more about the situation in the small world where the Dragon Cemetery is?"
Di Tian nodded and said, "My lord, the small world where the Dragon Cemetery is located is under the complete control of the Tang Sect. We have no chance of getting in. I sensed that in less than a year, the small world will be very close to the Douluo Star. Mr. Xiong and I can use that opportunity to force a passage open and enter it."
Gu Yuena frowned and asked, "Is it necessary to force a passage open? How long can it last?"
Di Tian thought for a moment and said, "I have tried it. I can open a passage by myself, but it won't be stable. I need the help of Xiong Jun, Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and others."
Gu Yuena pondered over Di Tian's words, but then she realized that if all these great beasts left, there would be no one to protect the Star Dou Forest. If the Spirit Power found out, the remaining spirit beasts in the forest would be in danger.
"Passage, passage..." Gu Yuena muttered to herself, wondering if there was another way.
Anping saw that Gu Yuena was lost in thought and said, "If it's just to maintain the stability of the passage, I have a way, but it requires a lot of materials."
"Do you have a way?" Di Tian exclaimed in surprise. He knew that maintaining the stability of the space passage required a lot of energy. Even if they joined forces with several fierce beasts, they could only keep the passage open for a short time, unless a true god descended.
Gu Yuena seemed to have an idea and looked at Anping and said, "You don't mean the plane debris, do you? If we use it now, what will we do to build a small plane?"
Anping had mentioned before that plane debris could be used to build space passages, so when he said he had a way to maintain the passage, Gu Yuena immediately thought of the plane debris.
But when Gu Yuena was thinking of a solution, she had dismissed the plane debris option, because Anping had also said that plane debris could be used to build a small plane, and the soul beasts desperately needed an independent living space.
Anping knew what Gu Yuena was thinking. He shook his head slightly and said, "No, I'm not using the plane debris. They can maintain the space channel, but that would be a waste. I have another way."
"That's good. I'm looking forward to the plane you'll build. You can tell Di Tian what materials you need." Gu Yuena didn't mind as long as the plane debris was saved.
Gu Yuena trusted Anping, and so did Di Tian. He nodded and said, "I don't know what you're planning, but if you can really stabilize a space channel, I'll get you whatever materials you need. I have some collections from over the years."
"Thanks, I'll make a list for you later." Anping changed the topic and asked, "By the way, why are you the only one who came to pick us up, Di Tian? Where are Mr. Xiong and the others?"
Di Tian explained, "There have been a lot of soul masters hunting soul beasts lately. They're all on patrol. If you want to see them, I can call them back."
Anping said quickly, "No need! I was just curious!"
He didn't really want to meet the other great beasts. He was just wondering. He had always thought that the old man who raised him was dead, and he hoped to revive him someday. Now that he knew that he was the Myriad Demon King, he felt awkward and nervous.
Gu Yuena noticed Anping's reluctance and teased him with a smile, "What? Don't you want to meet the Myriad Demon King now that you're in the Star Dou Forest?"
Anping knew that Gu Yuena was making fun of him, and he said angrily, "There's no hurry. I'll have plenty of chances in the future."
"Fine, let me think about what materials I need, and you two can chat." Anping stopped talking and took out a pen and paper. He thought about the materials he needed and wrote them down.
Anping had a rough idea of what he needed. When he was in Heaven Dou City, he had dragged Gu Yuena to many auctions and bought some materials.
But they were for building the wizard's courtyard, which was related to space. They could also be used to make a space stabilizer.
Since Di Tian offered to help with the materials, Anping didn't hold back and wrote down everything he needed for the wizard's courtyard and the space stabilizer.
Gu Yuena left him alone and took Di Tian to chat about the recent events. She told him some of the things she and Anping had encountered, but mostly they talked about the soul beasts.
Di Tian got a general idea of Gu Yuena and Anping's plan. He didn't understand everything, but he respected Gu Yuena's decision and didn't question it.
Anping finished recording the required materials and handed the paper to Di Tian. "That's it. I've marked the quantity and the substitutes for each material. Just follow the instructions and collect them."
Di Tian scanned the list in his hand. Most of the items were extremely rare and precious, and he had them stored in his own treasure house. He felt a pang of regret for his hoarded wealth.
But he knew it was for the sake of the soul beast clan's survival, so he didn't hesitate. He nodded and said, "I have most of the materials you need. The only thing I'm missing is this space energy crystal. They're very scarce in the market. Is there any alternative?"
Anping shook his head slightly. "No need to worry about the space energy crystal. I have a way to get it." He thought of his alchemy laboratory, which was fully equipped with all kinds of devices. Making some elemental crystals was not a big deal for him, except that it would take some time. He had written it down on the list to save himself some trouble.
"Alright, I'll go get the materials right away." Di Tian said and vanished in a flash.
After he left, Gu Yuena looked at Anping and asked, "Why do you need so many materials for a device that stabilizes a spatial portal? Do you have other plans?"
Anping smiled and said, "The spatial stabilizer is not enough. Don't we need to build a small plane as well? Since he's willing to provide the materials..."
