Even after studying the spirit ship for a long time, he still could not figure out the meaning of the rune seals. This indeed proved the spirit ship's great power! After making rounds, he went back to the place where he found the six-sided crystal.
Inside the spirit ship, it was empty except for the six-sided crystal that seemed to be carelessly tossed aside.
This six-sided crystal was the size of a human head and it was exuding a faintish red light. Fane Woods scanned it again with his divine sense and did not detect anything dangerous about it so he bent down and picked it up. He brought the crystal closer to his face and examined it carefully. He discovered that there were crystals of various sizes and colors floating
within the crystal. These small crystals also happened to be six-sided.
Although the six-sided crystals all had the same shape, their aura could not be more different. The tiny six-sided crystals inside seemed to possess even more mysterious auras. As he was taking a closer look, he felt stabbing pain in the fingers holding the six-sided crystal. Unbeknownst to him, his fingers had been cut open and blood was flowing out.
The six-sided crystal exuded a dazzling light after being stained by his blood.
Suddenly, Fane Woods felt his entire body stiffen as a mysterious aura enveloped him.
Before he could react, he had been brought to a mysterious space. Large and small six-sided crystals floated around him and he heard a thought being transmitted into his mind. "These are the soul-gathering crystals that took me ten thousand years to refine. It is the treasure of our clan! They now belong to you and you must avenge us once you have reached the peak!" The message entered Fane Woods' mind with a wave of indomitability and anger.
'So this is called the soul-gathering crystal? That's a strange name. Don’t tell me the souls of others are inside?!' He felt a splitting headache as soon as the questions flashed through his mind. More information was forced into his mind.
After all that was done, he finally knew what he was holding in his hand. It also explained many mysteries to him! It turned out that the name of this spirit ship was Mustard Seed. It was made by the head of the Divine Void Clan, making it the clan’s treasure.
The Divine Void Clan was not from
Cathysia. The clan belonged to a higher-level world's strongest race! According to the head of the Divine Void Clan, Cathysia belongs to the fifth-grade world while the Divine Void Clan lived in a first-grade world which was the best place for martial art enhancement.
The Divine Void World was simply named after the Divine Void Clan which showed just how powerful the clan was while they were still alive. Even so, they ended up being exterminated. What really rendered Fane Woods speechless was the fact that though the head of the clan promised to make him stronger if he would help them return to their world, he never once told him exactly who he would be fighting against.
The head of the clan kept telling Fane Woods that he would find out who his opponents are once he had gained enough power which made him even more speechless. To him, one should plan properly for a vengeance so deep.
Fane Woods was not the kind of person who would go back on his promise of lending a helping hand after the other party had already given him something valuable. Since he had already been given the soul-gathering crystal and Mustard Seed, it was natural for him to fulfill his promise. However, the message left by the head of the clan and the fact that he still had no idea who the enemy was, frustrated him even more.
However, he could not deny the fact that the two treasures he had received were indeed powerful. Especially the soulgathering crystal which was a hundred times more powerful than Mustard Seed because as he previously guessed, inside the crystal were indeed soul fragments!
