Chapter 173: Chapter 68 Star Dust Shopping (Two in One)

The depiction of the Dark Energy Technique must be steady and coherent; there can be no hesitation midway, as any slight mistake will lead to the failure of the entire process. This demands a very high level of control and proficiency from the caster, especially with such complicated Skill Formulas.

"First, surround the outermost layer with twenty portions of series 216 Dark Energy Particles, alright, let me try..."

"One, two, three, four, five..."

"Damn! Failed..."

Zhang Xiaoman rubbed his forehead, finding it hard to believe that he had failed after arranging just the fifth one; the difficulty of this formula was indeed high.

However, fortunately, depicting a Magic Technique didn’t require all the Dark Energy to be consumed at once. Instead, it was used up one by one with the arrangement of energy particles, so he still had 155 points of Dark Energy remaining.

"It seems I might be able to increase my speed a bit, at least to try a few more times at the beginning."

With that thought, Zhang Xiaoman started a new depiction.

The Enlightenment Array Technique differed from the two skills he had mastered before. Whether it was the Spirit Detection Technique or the Violent Spirit Technique, their steps were few, needing only the arrangement of 3 sequences before activation. In contrast, the formula for the Enlightenment Array required the arrangement of as many as twenty portions just for the first 216 sequences.

Moreover, as the number of arranged Dark Energy Particles increased, the structure of the Magic Technique became more complex and the stability worse. A slight lack of caution could easily lead to a total collapse and wasted effort.

Therefore, the difficulty of those two previous formulas was truly incomparable to that of the Enlightenment Array.

In the following time, Zhang Xiaoman made many attempts in quick succession, but almost every attempt failed around arranging the seventh, with his best effort barely reaching the ninth.

Despite his ability to automatically recover energy and the assistance of the Soul Absorption Technique, he still exhausted all his Dark Energy in less than a quarter of an hour, and the Starry Stone had a cooldown of 1 hour, leaving him with nothing to do for now.

Aimlessly wandering around, Zhang Xiaoman first exercised his authority within the Original Realm Space, experiencing the ability to control objects and fly. Then, he went to the very edge of the space to see what the situation was like there.

He remembered expanding the size of the space with Star Dust last time; he had only sensed the added size through the perception of the Master of the Original Realm, which extended about 50 meters. But because of other matters, he had not yet gone to see the boundary.

When Zhang Xiaoman reached the edge of the Original Realm, he was somewhat surprised to find that the expansion was slightly larger than he had anticipated.

meters wasn’t much, but the expansion wasn’t just an extension on a flat plane; it was a holistic extension of a three-dimensional space. Plus, since his space wasn’t very large to start with, visually, this expansion seemed significantly larger.

However, there was one aspect that surprised him: within the area added by the last extension, there wasn’t a speck of land to be found.

In other words, if one were to view the entire Original Realm Space from a third-person perspective, the area where Zhang Xiaoman currently stood would already be a floating island in the sky.

"Right now, no one besides me can enter here. Once the Original Realm can support my use of more authority, I’ll properly revamp this place.

Later on, I’ll be able to bring others here, too, and use this place as a base for the Star Alliance. That way, both its safety and concealment will leap in quality."

Zhang Xiaoman looked around, suppressing the urge to immediately use Star Dust for further expansion, and flew back to the stone he had been sitting on earlier. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to expand the space of the Original Realm sooner, but rather, the few pieces of Star Dust he held were needed for even more important purposes.

Opening the system interface, Zhang Xiaoman clicked into the Gang Store. It was filled with items, although all required Star Dust for purchase.

He first checked the remaining amount of Star Dust, then calculated the prices among several items and selected what he planned to buy.

These were items he had long coveted; he had been holding off until now because he needed to save Star Dust to purchase Olharast Rock.

"I currently have 8 pieces of Star Dust, 5 of which I’ll use to buy the Star Alliance Marker. The remaining 3 will be used to purchase the Teleportation Technique Formula, the Polar Star Robe, and the Star Network Terminal."

These items were all important to Zhang Xiaoman. The Star Alliance Marker goes without saying, as it allowed him to set a location for his Infinite Teleportation Skill, which was vital.

The remaining three items, according to the store’s simple description, were also things he could use at the moment. He would have to test their exact effects after buying them.

After purchasing all four items in one go, Zhang Xiaoman had spent all his Star Dust.

With the distortion of space coming to an end, the four items he had just bought fell before him.

Using his control ability, he caused the four items to float in front of him and examined each one in turn, according to their sequence.

First was the most expensive Star Alliance Marker, which looked like a hard card.

The card was black all over, adorned with a complex and beautiful starry sky background. The emblem at the center was the symbol of the Star Alliance, which was the Seven-pointed Star Array in Zhang Xiaoman’s
