Spying on the Whole World!

The ocean was vast and boundless.

At a glance, azure blue covered nearly seventy percent of the planet's surface, its waves as clear as if freshly washed.

This was the ocean of Douluo Star. Its area was even more expansive than Douluo Continent's, and it contained treasures that were practically inexhaustible.

The spirit beasts found on the continent were no fewer in the sea. All kinds of heavenly treasures were as numerous as the stars.

It could be said that this was a precious land protected by sea spirit beasts.

Starlight transformed into Fang Yuan's gaze, allowing him to survey this ocean at will.

"So there's more than just Douluo Continent on this planet."

Wherever the starlight reached was wherever Fang Yuan's gaze reached. Amid the vast ocean, he was surprised to discover several continents.

These continents were scattered throughout the sea. Aside from the largest one, which lay relatively close to Douluo Continent, the others were all separated by immense distances.

On Douluo Continent, the rampant sea spirit beasts had made the ocean a forbidden zone for soul masters, and oceanic navigation was underdeveloped.

As a result, throughout all these years of development on Douluo Continent, no one had known anything whatsoever about the other continents.

Having seen these other continents through the power of Star Eyes, Fang Yuan might have been the first person in history to observe them. He could be called the Magellan of the soul master world.

Fang Yuan had some impression of the largest of those continents.

In later generations, it seemed to be called the Sun-Moon Continent. Several thousand years from now, the Sun-Moon Continent would apparently collide with Douluo Continent due to tectonic movements and merge into one.

Unlike Douluo Continent, besides soul masters cultivating there, another group of people on the Sun-Moon Continent was tirelessly researching soul tools.

Soul tools were regarded as mysterious ancient technology on Douluo Continent. Yet on the Sun-Moon Continent, soul tool technology had already reached a fairly respectable level.

Unfortunately, the current level of soul tool technology on the Sun-Moon Continent still seemed somewhat inferior to Fang Yuan's.

Thinking of the group of soul masters within the Supreme Immortal Aperture who specialized in soul tool research, Fang Yuan could not help but smile.

He had begun researching and crafting soul tools as soon as he regained the Supreme Immortal Aperture.

The sixty-to-one difference in the flow of time between the Supreme Immortal Aperture and the outside world had undoubtedly accelerated the research process tremendously.

While five years had passed outside, more than three hundred years had already gone by within the Supreme Immortal Aperture!

Under Fang Yuan's precise guidance, three hundred years of research and development had brought the soul tool technology in his possession beyond even that of the present-day Sun-Moon Continent!

Fang Yuan's gaze swept across the Sun-Moon Continent. It was slightly larger than Douluo Continent, with cities scattered across its lands.

Unlike Douluo Continent, soul tool facilities were not found only in major cities on the Sun-Moon Continent.

In the cities Fang Yuan saw, even small cities of modest size had public facilities such as soul tool streetlights and soul tool carriages along their roads.

Besides soul master education, the academies also taught soul tools. However, the current level of soul tools on the Sun-Moon Continent was still not particularly advanced, so such instruction was quite superficial.

Fang Yuan shifted his gaze away from the cities and toward the outskirts of the Sun-Moon Continent.

As his gaze moved, an enormous forest appeared before his eyes.

This forest lay in the north of the Sun-Moon Continent. As far as the eye could see, it was a coniferous forest. The branches and leaves amid those conifers were mostly blackish-gray, giving off an intensely oppressive feeling.

Forests of such immense size, far from human settlements, often housed powerful spirit beasts. The Star Dou Great Forest was one example, concealing countless hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts within it.

Fang Yuan's gaze roamed through the forest. Starlight had become his eyes, and every detail of this massive forest was laid bare before him.

"Hmm?"

As his gaze settled on one spot, Fang Yuan's heart stirred.

There, a gigantic eye slowly opened.

This enormous eye was a full three hundred meters in diameter. Eighty tentacles sprawled around it, each more than five hundred meters long.

Its appearance was like placing a cow's eyeball in the middle of a huge plate of spaghetti.

This peculiar form left Fang Yuan slightly astonished. He had thoroughly read Douluo Continent and had personally cultivated and studied on this continent for twenty years, yet he had never heard of such a miraculous creature.

Was it a spirit beast? Or some mysterious natural phenomenon?

The giant eye slowly opened, and the direction it looked toward was precisely the direction from which Fang Yuan's gaze had been cast!

However, a faint hint of confusion appeared in the giant eye's expression.

Clearly, it had been unable to follow the starlight back to Fang Yuan.

What it had sensed was likely nothing more than the feeling of being watched.

This did not surprise Fang Yuan. By his estimation, one would need at least god-level spiritual power to detect him through the starlight.

Without reaching the god-level realm, even a Rank 99 Ultimate Douluo or a 990,000-year super spirit beast would not be able to trace him back along the line.

If Star Eyes could be traced so easily, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

After memorizing this peculiar creature's appearance and the surrounding terrain, Fang Yuan moved his gaze elsewhere.

He had only just obtained his eighth soul ring and had no vacant slot for now. What a pity.

When he reached Rank 90 someday, he would definitely try it himself and see whether that huge eyeball was truly a spirit beast—and whether it could drop a soul ring!

Fang Yuan shifted his gaze from the Sun-Moon Continent to the vast, boundless sea.

Due to the presence of sea spirit beasts, this ocean remained an untouched land that continental soul masters had scarcely ventured into.

Most of the endless ocean presented the same scenery.

The only things that drew Fang Yuan's attention were the islands scattered throughout the sea.

Some of those islands were untamed wildernesses, occupied entirely by wild animals. Nearly completely isolated from the outside world, some of the larger islands even contained spirit beasts with hundred-thousand-year cultivation!

Information about these spirit beasts was almost entirely absent from the records of every soul master organization. If Fang Yuan had not possessed Star Eyes and been able to transform starlight into his gaze, he could never have found them in the vast, limitless ocean.

Other islands, meanwhile, bore traces of human activity.

Most islands housed only ordinary humans and a very small number of soul masters, but some had clearly abnormal numbers of soul masters.

A huge island densely covered in vegetation, its entire surface almost dyed emerald green, appeared before Fang Yuan's eyes.
