Just then, Nina's communicator rang. She immediately answered, "Odian."
"Nina, have you eaten breakfast yet?" Odian's voice came through.
"I have. Did you find something?" Nina asked.
"Nina, regarding that formation—if it's impossible to crack directly, you might want to try another approach," Odian paused briefly. "Every sacred artifact was forged by the Beast God and carries his divine power. They should be able to sense one another. You can try using the ones you already have."
Nina smiled. "I actually just had the exact same realization. Let me ask them."
She held up the Spirit Pearl and spoke to it. "Little Pearl, can you sense the location of the Spirit Stone and the Black Scale Bracelet when they're nearby?"
The Spirit Pearl flickered with a warm glow: Yes, Master.
"There is an item nearby with the exact same power source as yours. Can you sense where it is?" Nina inquired.
