The Four Tigers Sect had nine Fulfilled Crushers. They were quite powerful when compared to average Organizations.
Yet, Azure Comet's Formation Arrays were terrifying. Even if they won, there was a high likelihood that they would lose some of their members.
And what would they gain in exchange? Azure Comet's wealth and Momentum.
No territory.
No new members.
Yes, Azure Comet's wealth was enticing, but there was also a high chance that he would just use all of his wealth to deal with them. It was possible that Azure Comet would be poor after the battle.
150 Grade Five Energy Stones was a good price for only one of their Level Four Law Wells.
After some deliberation, the Four Tigers Sect sent their answer.
Hours later, a document flew towards Kyle.
'Let's see what they said,' he thought as he opened the document.
When he saw the answer, he grinned. 'Deal accepted! Great! Means I don't have to lose more Karmic Luck.'
Kyle looked through the details of the deal. 'They want me to swear a bunch of oaths, but that's fine. I can accept all of those. Sounds good.'
'Well, time to go to my new home,' he thought as he flew right towards his new Planet. Naturally, the Four Tigers Sect had given Kyle directions to his new home.
Some time later, Kyle saw the Planet. It was basically just a lifeless rock in space. Yet, as it was with every Law Well for an Elemental Level Four Law, the Planet was absolutely massive.
In front of the Planet were five Fulfilled Crushers, and as soon as Kyle arrived, they looked at him warily.
Kyle stopped in front of them, still wearing his imposing armor. "Greetings," he said, recognizing some of the Fulfilled Crushers.
"Greetings, Azure Comet," the Sect Master said politely. "This will be your Planet. I trust that you are willing to swear the oaths?"
"Of course," Kyle answered before swearing a bunch of oaths about not attacking them in the future.
When all oaths were spoken, Kyle handed 150 Grade Five Energy Stones to the Sect Master.
"Azure Comet," the Sect Master spoke after accepting the Energy Stones. "Keep in mind that this is your Planet now. While we won't attack you, we also have no incentive to keep your location secret."
Kyle understood the deeper meaning. "I know," he answered. "It's fine. As long as you're not actively incentivizing others to attack me, you can do whatever you want."
The Sect Master nodded. "Then, I'm looking forward to a quiet and peaceful life with our new neighbor. "
"Sure," Kyle answered.
Some minor words of goodbye were spoken by both sides, and the five members of the Four Tigers Sect left.
As Kyle looked at his new Planet, he took a deep breath.
'Let's get to work! Luckily, I still have a bunch of materials left over.'
Naturally, whenever Kyle had created Formation Arrays for one of his clients, he had asked for more materials than necessary in case he messed up. Fortunately, he rarely messed up and got to keep all the spare materials.
Kyle flew to the Planet and investigated it thoroughly, ensuring there were no traps or Seekers hidden there.
When he didn't find any traps, Kyle got to work.
Usually, Organizations only fortified their headquarters, which were only a couple of kilometers wide. Fortifying an entire Planet was unnecessary.
Yet that was exactly what Kyle planned to do sometime in the future.
'I don't have enough materials to fortify the entire thing. For now, I need to create a solid base. Luckily, this Planet has a gigantic Law Well, which can act as an Energy Source.'
An Energy Generation Formation Array was way too complex for Kyle to construct, but he didn't need one. Energy Generation Formation Arrays created Energy from seemingly nothing. In truth, they took Energy from gravity, which meant the Energy wasn't actually taken from nothing. However, there was so much Gravity Energy that it basically didn't matter.
A good alternative to an Energy Generation Formation Array was a powerful Law Well. The dense Energies in such a Law Well could be harvested and transformed into Energies usable by Formation Arrays.
There was only one problem with this. The converted Energies weren't stable and couldn't be stored. This meant that Kyle's Formation Arrays could only exhibit so much power at once. If he wanted to use more power, he would need to supplement his Formation Arrays with Energy Stones.
'First, I need an Energy Source,' Kyle thought as he dug into the Planet.
After digging for a while, Kyle found an unending storm of green and grey wind. The density of Wind Energy varied widely between different spots. Surprisingly, the spots with less Wind Energy actually had a greater gravitational influence.
Kyle felt his body getting pulled to different sides, while the wind also tried to push him there.
'Gravity Wind, huh?' he thought as he looked around. 'It just feels like very powerful wind. Yin-Wind used weight to increase its power, while Gravity Wind uses gravity. I'm not only being pushed in one direction but also pulled towards it.'
'It has a lot of power, but that's good. The more power it has, the more Energy it can provide.'
Kyle started his experiments. Gravity Wind was still an unfamiliar concept to him, and he needed to find out how to make use of this unfamiliar Element.
Some years later, Kyle finally managed to siphon Energy out of the Law Well.
He watched as streams of Gravity Wind flowed through several Formation Arrays, which pulled them closer together. After gathering, the streams shot through another Formation Array, which siphoned Energy out of them. The Energy was then sent to a different Formation Array.
That Formation Array was built around a large chunk of metal that melted and fused into a much smaller one.
Almost every Planet had a bunch of metals inside it. These metals were mostly ignored since they were of lower quality. The vast majority of metals on Kyle's Planet were of Transcendent Grade, with just the occasional stone being of Primal Grade.
However, by gathering worthless metals and placing them in a Fusion Formation Array, Kyle could create materials needed to build more Formation Arrays.
When the new material was made, Kyle added more lower-grade metals before reshaping it.
Then he used the new material to create another Formation Array that drew Energy from the Law Well.
With more Energy, he could create more Fusion Formation Arrays, which allowed him to make more Formation Arrays, and so on.
At some point, Kyle's entire day was spent collecting worthless metals to keep his Fusion Formation Arrays supplied.
By now, he had been on this Planet for a decade.
Every new Organization received a 20-year grace period to give them an opportunity to establish themselves.
Half of this grace period had passed.
