Chapter 939: Chapter 939
The focal point of the observation was the "collection point"!
The city where Jia Yan docked was actually on the outskirts of the area where the collection point was located, which was normal, after all, those coming here to participate in the collection couldn’t possibly stop on the other side of this artificial planet, right?
Not far ahead stood a massive building.
The size of this building was gigantic, as if it touched the sky. It occupied about half of the city. From a distance, one could see its silhouette, and what was more terrifying was that it stretched straight up into the sky, faintly visible as its apex pierced the clouds and seemed to enter space.
This was the reason for the initial construction of this artificial planet and also the most precious thing on it to date—the entrance to the Chaos Stone collection point!
If observed from space, one could see that the entrance to this planet’s collection point acted like a bridge to another place not far from this planet that looked like a planet itself.
That place was vaguely the size of the Moon, but its entire surface was wrapped in metal, with countless defense weapons on it and myriad fleets patrolling around it.
And this planet served as the location for the Chaos Stones. Moreover, not the entire planet contained Chaos Stones; if it really had such a massive amount of Chaos Stones, then this starfield might not look the way it does now, as even the surrounding Great Empires would come to snatch the Chaos Stones.
Despite the modest amount, the Chaos Stone mines here were enough to pique the interest of all Starry Sky Level Experts.
For ordinary beings, the only way to enter the Chaos Stone mining area was through the collection point entrance, which was the gigantic structure in front of Jia Yan.
"This is the entrance?..."
Jia Yan looked at the entrance before him, a sharp glint flashing in his Compound Eyes. He knew this place would be where his life and death was decided—if he couldn’t make a stand here, then his grand plans for mutation would be hindered, even affecting his future progress!
"However, I will also have to assess the situation. If the defense here is too formidable, leaving no gap whatsoever, then I won’t make a move when the time comes because survival is the most important..."
Jia Yan gazed at the distant building.
This entrance building was so critical that it was segregated by five to six hundred meters from the adjacent streets. Looking from afar, the massive passageway appeared like a fearsome Giant Dragon lying before everyone, exuding an immense pressure.
There were a great many visitors here, as the place this building led to was the real reason for the development of this star system. Furthermore, for the residents of this starry sky, this place had a different significance. Some creatures had lived in the Desolate Star System for several generations, and the collection point had always been an essential place, making them wish to come here for sightseeing.
Although Jia Yan was huge, he wasn’t anything extraordinarily surprising amidst these sightseeing masses; plus, there were some Strong Ones who would enter the collection point tomorrow gathering inspiration here, so it was unlikely for anyone to suspect him of anything.
The only downside was that his image was broadcast too far, often causing some citizens to recognize him, drawing a crowd of creatures asking for autographs.
"Jia Yan, we meet again."
Just as he had managed to slip away from a crowd and found a secluded spot to observe the gigantic collection point, another voice reached his ears, making him feel slightly uncomfortable.
The newcomer was an enormous Stone Giant Monster.
"Hmm, it’s you?" Jia Yan looked at the other party with some surprise.
"That’s right, me. What, you’ve forgotten me so soon after defeating me just a short while ago?" the Stone Giant said with a chuckle.
Jia Yan remembered him—he was a rather powerful opponent whom he had beaten before. But seeing him here, did that mean the loser harbored a grudge and wanted to challenge him again?
Jia Yan looked around indifferently, not spotting any other Starry Sky Level Experts; thus, he had nothing to fear. He was well aware that his true strength was far beyond what he had shown in the tournament arena. If the other thought he could take on Jia Yan alone, Jia Yan would make him pay the price.
"I haven’t forgotten you, sir. May I know if you have sought me out for a particular matter?" Jia Yan said calmly.
"Nothing in particular. I just came here for sightseeing and didn’t expect to meet you, my embarrassingly formidable opponent, so I thought I’d come over to say hello," the Stone Giant’s deep voice resounded.
"Oh, you are here for sightseeing. If there’s nothing else, then I’ll take my leave," Jia Yan said, somewhat frustrated to be leaving the good spot he had found.
"Don’t rush off, Jia Yan. I’ve always been skeptical of your strength, so I want to test whether you are truly as strong as you appear or if your combat power isn’t as great as it seemed in the competition," the Stone Giant said, blocking Jia Yan’s path as he moved in front of him with a swift dash.
This spot was between two large buildings, and there weren’t many pedestrians outside, as the area was somewhat off-limits, attracting tourists more than locals. Thus, even if a fight broke out here, it wouldn’t be easily discovered.
