29 Random Encounter (1/2)
Currently, Jam was learning to use his eyes' Seeking Form. Tzatziki, also being a user of the Seeking Form, told Jam what he knew about the Seeking Form.
”Ok, so I know you have Seeking Form, However, the Golden hue your pupils take in this Form lets me know its not the normal Seeking Form. Normally, your pupils would not change color.
In my case, different colors would glow from the environment with varying intensity. A green glow points towards a spiritual herb, a blue glow indicates a spiritual ore. Additionally, a white glow would indicate a living being, like a cultivator or demonic beast. The brighter the glow of the color the higher the quality of herb or ore.”
Jam began to look around. In every direction, there would be glowing colors attracting Jam's attention. After several tests. Jam confirmed his Seeking Form was indeed different than Tzatziki's. Jam could see other glowing colors, aside from blue, green, and white. Jam could see black, purple, gold, and red colors as well.
The blue was still spiritual ore, the green, herbs, however, the white would only point Jam towards cultivators. The black glowing lights would only point to demonic beasts, a purple glow would point to random points in space; with Tzatziki's additional testing it was discovered that these points in space had artificially created pocket dimensions.
Most pocket dimensions would not have anything of value. However, there were certain eccentric cultivators that liked to hide away treasures in these pocket dimensions.
The golden lights would also point to pocket dimensions. However, all the pocket dimensions with golden lights had some form of natural treasure. In fact, just through the testing of these golden glowing lights, Jam found several rare herbs, the he couldn't even use yet. The herbs Jam found were all for Tier 4 and above pills, if he wanted to use them, he would need to reach the Soul Fusion Stage.
The red glowing lights also pointed towards points in space. However, these points were not pocket dimension per say. Rather, they were zones of collapsed space. These zones of collapsed space were extremely dangerous, and only those well versed in the Dao of Space would dare enter them casually.
Zones of collapsed space were the largest contributor of deaths to pocket dimension treasure hunters. Because these zones of collapsed space and pocket dimensions were so similar, many treasure hunters would mistakenly enter these danger zones and perish.
The only reason Jam didn't enter and die in a zone of collapsed space, was because Tzatziki was with him, he could see through the points in space. This might not have worked if Jam was in the Immortal, or Divine Plane. But here, in the Mortal Plane, the space was very weak and unrestrictive. Even in his weakened Soul Form, Tzatziki could easily see through Mortal Plane space.
Now that Jam knew what all the glowing colored lights meant, he began to mercilessly strip away all the resources around him. Spiritual herbs and ores, natural and artificial pocket dimensions were scavenged alike. On his resources harvesting escapade Jam assassinated Saint Realm Demonic Beasts.
Jam also didn't differentiate between superior and inferior goods. Even if the herb in front of him was a useless Tier 1 herb or piece of ore, Jam would still happily store it away in his Spatial Storage.
In just a couple hours, Jam had completely striped away all the reasources within a ten thousand kilometer radius. This might seem like a lot, but the Delta Heavy Forest was several million square kilometers in size; close to the size of Africa, back in Jam's home planet of Earth.
Jam was having a grand old time, minding his business, stripping away the natural resources of the forest, when he saw some of his fellow competitors stuck in trouble.
The situation seemed to be quite bad for the other competitors, as they were surrounded by ten Saint Realm Demonic Beasts. Jam switched over to his Detecting Form to confirm that all ten Beasts were indeed False Saint Demonic beasts.
The group in trouble was also composed of five members, all girls.
Jam was very curious to see how these girls would handle this situation. He figured 'They knew the risk of coming to center zone of the Delta Heavy Forest. They should have a backup for this sort of situation.' Unfortunately for them, they didn't have a 'Plan B.'
