Chapter 4 - Asteroid fragments for another bracelet

With every move that Musk made on the moon, he seemed to be traversing some distance, due to the White Dear Rushes Through the Heavens, movement technique at the peak of rank 3.

The moon, low gravity seemed to have made seem like he was a fish in the sea, the effect of his martial arts in this place was much more pronounced than on the Earth's surface.

In fact, the moon's surface had been hit by many asteroids to the point that most of its surface was almost stripped bare, leaving the deep crust exposed.

The crust being very hard, it can even withstand pressure from the Earth, thereby having survived all these years without collapse.

The materials left are very tough and even the collision with most asteroids over the years has only left some basins and depressions on the moon's surface and this is also due to some magnetic field existing on the moon.

It is after all affected by the planetary magnetic field in a way that it can't be repelled or attracted beyond some point, but this can be blamed on the makeup of the Moon too. When these factors are taken into consideration it can be seen that the materials the moon was formed from it very unique, but no one was willing to mess with the moon as they could not really tell the consequences of it being destroyed.

Walking he could perceive that the moon seemed to have a very tough surface and the scientists that researched this place for the past century lost interest in the exploration of the depressions very fast. Some asteroids are not even as stronger as the refined surface of the moon and thus focus on research while the rest is given less attention. The things they can pull from space are bound to be more attractive than some moon's surface and this is the logic in their minds.

Musk did not bother to deal with this as he also could see how their thinking was not that bad, but at least from the perspective of rationality. In the same way, he was able to check out the moon, and unlike other places out in space, he had yet to discover them. Focusing on the moon was his goal and he had some vast area covered too and at this moment he was just ruling out another depression.

When he arrived at the bottom of the depression he was able to locate something to him, it seemed like a stone but he was attracted by it. The black luster made the stone hide in plain sight, which was very easy to find with his perception but others could not find it if they did not put more effort into it. Their observation was biased towards fixed findings. Picking it up, he felt the stone was small close to a palm size yet the weight was more than what an adult person could lift.

Picking it up to him was indeed easy and he suspected it to be the residue of the asteroid that caused this depression in this area but it gave off some feeling as though this place was once occupied by a huge water surface but he knew this was not correct.

It was probably the oldest depression caused by asteroids and thus the place had even some liquid that changes its structure completely. But when one looked at the scientific knowledge one could deduce that this was not the case as the existence of water on the moon in itself was not rational.

The most likely cause of this situation was the asteroid that had collapsed in this place but he did not even get a large piece of it, most likely it was taken away but he was not in a rush to find the rest of it as he had no idea what was unique about it other than the fact that the stone fragment he had obtained was able to hide in plain sight.

He left with the plan-sized stone playing it in hand and his thoughts were drifting as he thought about his next step. He was able to at least rule out this place from the numerous places he had stepped on the moon. He did this with reasons and the most important being getting himself busy.

When he had used the advantages of technology, some more asteroid fragments were collected but this last one seemed slightly unique.

"Let go back and see what this stone is, and at the moment I should see where that lazy disciple of mine has reached."He was more interested in finding out if his disciple had woken up than anything as he wanted to make some plans.

The stone fragment was something he would put aside for the moment, he was more interested in moving around using the shuttle to see more of the starry sky. He had indeed done this in the past and he was going to focus on this after he got some new information about the space shuttles that had headed into space.

Looking beyond the moon, a huge planet could be seen reflecting in his eyes and the beauty of it was beyond compare. But he did not have the chance to see Earth in his previous life and this one was slightly smaller than earth but had the same name.

Moreover, things were almost the same other than the fact that only three other huge asteroids that seemed to be closer to the sun than even the planet, were available in this solar system. They were not something that even scientists seemed interested in and thus their major goal was to go further and discover other things in the starry sky.

When observing the huge planet before his eyes, Musk seemed to be in a daze, as he could never be mesmerized by it. The sun on the other end, was something that brought fear to Musk the moment he set his sights on it, as he felt like this celestial body was bringing pressure on him and even the perception seemed to be scared of it. He did not bother to investigate it as this huge star actually made him feel that he could die if he dared to approach it.

"The sun definitely has some secrets but that does not concern me! Without any improvement in my martial arts, I can only forcefully utilize gravity to improve my physique. Besides, the accumulation of energy in my body takes too long and perhaps is also the same reason I can not feel the chance to break through to the sixth level of Longevity art."

Over the years, Musk used to hunt for the biggest creatures to eat, and at the moment most were located on the water's surface. With his perception, this was easy, but things changed with the passage of time since the species started to become smaller. He now has energy candies, that he used a few millenniums to figure out. One has immense energy and it saves him the effort of having to prepare meals too. This time he was going back to use the gravity platform as he asked his disciple to check out the exploration of the shuttles in space.
