He was deep in thought as he asked himself, "But if this information isn't for the homeworld of the gem people, then what world is it for and why have I received it, not the information about the homeworld of the gem people?"
These were the questions that he had in mind after he received what he deemed to be incorrect information. His minds churned as he tried to figure out the answers to these questions.
The only reasons he could think of that explained why he would receive this kind of information about the homeworld of the gem people are either because the spirit of the tower was lying or the representative of the gem people, that gem Noble called Quartzite, wasn't in their homeworld when they were chatting with each other.
It didn't take him long to come to the conclusion that the latter was the case. Being tricked by the gem people is far more possible than being tricked by the spirit of the tower.
He was a little angry that he had been fooled by the gem people. But he was also impressed that they were smart enough to use preventive measures before contacting him.
He was more impressed than he was angry, so he smiled and chose to compliment them.
He sighed and said to himself, "They might not have done this intentionally. It might have just been luck that the gem noble that contacted me was in a small world."
"Fortunately, we have the tower to check the spatial coordinates before we waste our time and effort preparing to invade a large world when it is only a small world. I would be very angry if we had invaded only to realize that it was a small world."
The review for the invasion will still take some time before he can get the permission to invade. Just because the target is a small world doesn't mean it can be underestimated. Especially now that he knows that this small world is related to the gem people in one way or another.
He has to wait for the review to be over before he can know what he will do next. But instead of waiting to do nothing, he decided to do something truly productive that would make sure that the gem people's scheme doesn't succeed.
He took out the heart core of a gem king. Then he dropped it into a slot beneath the terminal and asked the terminal to use the heart core to trace the spatial coordinates of the homeworld of the owner of the heart core.
This time, he had to pay more for the request. The terminal asked him to pay a fee of 50 primordial stones in order to analyze the spatial coordinates and scan it.
He understood that this request is more expensive to complete because it is more difficult. So he paid after a slight hesitation.
He spoke inwardly to himself in order to justify the expense, saying, "I don't have a choice anyway. It is either this or we can't invade their homeworld at all."
This request is very difficult because the spirit of the tower doesn't have spatial coordinates to work with and has to find a way to get the spatial coordinates. And from what he knows, even the spirit of the tower can't discover the spatial coordinates on its own, but has to ask for help from one of the titans of the League of World Eaters.
As long as his spiritual sense makes contact with a world, he can find its spatial coordinates. This is an ability that he gained at the fifth mortal coil.
Unfortunately, he can't make use of this ability because he has never been able to make any contact with the homeworld of the gem people. However, all hope is not lost.
At the sixth mortal coil, he can enter and leave the void for a brief amount of time due to the spiritualization of his body. If he advances to the seventh mortal coil, he will be able to stay indefinitely in the void of space, and he will also be able to find the traces of the spatial coordinates of a world from remnants of that world that he comes into contact with.
He doesn't know exactly how those at the seventh mortal coil find traces of spatial coordinates of a world from something as small as a piece of rock from that world. But he knows that this capability is why the Ethera tree will destroy every piece of his existence if he ever falls into the hands of a powerful and dangerous alien race.
So now that he is asking the spirit of the tower to find the spatial coordinates of the homeworld of the gem people through the heart core of a gem king, he is essentially hiring a seventh mortal coil cultivator to help him find the spatial coordinates.
To be exact, he is paying the spirit of the tower to hire the seventh mortal coil cultivator. It is a good thing for him because he doesn't have to meet a divine transformation cultivator face to face and risk being destroyed by the slightest provocation.
He doesn't even need to do or say anything for him to offend a divine transformation senior. Since those at the seventh mortal coil can hear the thoughts of those weaker than them, all he needs to offend them is to think of something disrespectful.
Take, now, for instance, he wants to know how long it will take for the spatial coordinates to be found. He might not ask this for fear of offending the divine transformation cultivator. But he will surely think about it, and if the divine transformation doesn't like that he is urging them in his thoughts, he might be in big trouble.
Even if he has never met a divine transformation cultivator, he still thinks it is a good thing that he doesn't get to meet one simply because he heard that they can read his thoughts.
