Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1778 - 867: Obtaining 7-Color Components Again_2
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
This seven-colored Energy Shield is truly exceptional. Should the "Mythical Pulse Wave" attribute currently derived from the Miracle Origin Improvement Platform be substituted later, this component would stand as the absolute peak among all seven-colored shields.
Nevertheless, choosing two seven-colored components restricts the remaining selection to only two items from the six that are left, making the decision quite difficult.
"Forget it, I’ll choose the Devouring Star Vine Heart and the Earth Chain Mother Stone."
Song Chi finalized his choice after a moment of contemplation.
The selections were: Alien Species Energy Purification Sculpture, White Hole Halo Heaven-Supporting Shield, Devouring Star Vine Heart, and Earth Chain Mother Stone.
The Rank Eleven Devouring Star Vine Heart is intended for the Rank Nine Golden Apple Mother Tree, serving as a vital resource for its future breakthrough into a Rank Ten Mythical entity.
The purpose of the Earth Chain Mother Stone is even more apparent; it serves as a specialized promotion material for the Mythical Level Torch Warship. Even though it only grants a 2% boost to the success rate of evolving a Superdimensional Mother Ship into a Mythical Immortal Ship, this 2% is invaluable for the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, which possesses the unique ability to undergo multiple promotion attempts.
With his choices locked in, Song Chi’s eyes lingered on the remaining four items, as he felt a strong desire for them as well.
The Rank Eleven Golden Apple would have allowed him to selectively evolve one of his three-colored objects—be it the Purusa Zen Seal, Chicang’s No. 004 Breeding Secret Realm, or the Miracle Cloning Chamber—into a five-colored grade.
The five-colored Charging Stone offers the ability to restore usage counts for specific Strange Objects. Although it is a single-use item, its worth is undeniable.
For instance, the Twelve Lives Life and Death Chess ability of the Time Chessboard has already been expended once. This stone could have recharged it, but unfortunately, it is only five-colored and cannot be applied to the higher-tier Time Chessboard.
The Super Space Teleportation Device is a movement component that vastly outperforms the Space Jump Device and Red Vault Jump Device, potentially filling a strategic void for the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong.
Lastly, the Rank Ten Asura Blood Organ represents the ultimate essence of a mythical Asura. It would be immensely beneficial for the Asura Emperor serving Song Chi, who has already peaked at Rank Nine.
Under Song Chi’s patronage over the last millennium, the Asura Emperor has been meticulously cultivated. Supported by a Rank Nine All Attributes Cultivation Room and a Rank Nine Wizard Magic Power Assistance Cultivation Cabin, and having recently fed on the flesh of the Rank Ten Mysterious Frost Winged Dragon, it has reached the pinnacle of Rank Nine.
Obtaining this Rank Ten Asura Blood Organ, which shares its lineage, would provide a massive boost toward its mythical breakthrough.
Detecting the shift in Song Chi’s expression, Jiang Yuan and Ji Heng inquired immediately:
"So, have you made your final choice?"
Song Chi gave a nod, informing them of his selections before tentatively adding:
"Emperor Jiang, Emperor Ji, that Rank Ten Asura Blood Organ is extremely important for the Rank Nine Asura Emperor under my command. Is it possible to trade for it using other items?"
"Certainly!"
Jiang Yuan and Ji Heng gave their consent without any hesitation.
This Asura Blood Organ was a relic retrieved by Ying Yi during a Starry Sea expedition ten millennia ago. Despite being a mythical object, the heart's murderous aura is so overwhelming that ordinary beings cannot harmonize with it, causing it to sit unused until now.
Hearing their approval, Song Chi produced an Intermediate Rank Chaos Mirror Image Stone. Capable of duplicating three-colored Strange Objects, its market value is roughly equivalent to the Asura Blood Organ, making it a perfect trade.
Once the transaction was finished, Song Chi bid the two Human Emperors farewell. He needed to return and immediately integrate these new resources into the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong to bolster its combat capabilities.
Within the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong remained docked in the firmament.
Inside the Battleship Main Control Room, bursts of radiant light signaled the upgrades.
Both the White Hole Halo Heaven-Supporting Shield and the Alien Species Energy Purification Sculpture were successfully leveled up to 110.
Upon reaching Rank Eleven, the attributes of these two seven-colored Strange Objects saw a massive surge.
Song Chi was particularly impressed by the fourth feature of the White Hole Halo Heaven-Supporting Shield.
{The White Hole Halo provides a constant blessing to the Energy Shield; when struck by external forces, it actively mitigates 75% of incoming damage.}
This implies that provided the Energy Shield isn't completely overwhelmed, any attack hitting the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong will have its power slashed by three-quarters. Once the level reaches 120, this damage reduction will rise to 80%.
This single improvement was enough to push the combat potential of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong to entirely new heights.
However, Song Chi did not depart for the Immortal Domain Continent Ruins just yet. The Skeleton Tomb, now at Level 110, which produces skeleton giants, had been deployed multiple times during the campaign in the Lanikea River System Cluster. Its structural integrity had not yet fully recovered to 100%.
As one of the most powerful trump cards of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, the skeleton giant was essential for the upcoming mission. He would wait for its recovery to be complete before setting out.
...
Within the Corpse Emperor Clan River System Cluster, on the Ninth Level Dragon Spine Continent.
Deep inside the Dragon Whale Hall of the Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain.
Two men stood within the hall, which was thick with Chaos Mist: Song Chi and Song Shiyuan, the latter of whom had recently upgraded his flagship to a Star River Ship.
Song Shiyuan’s eyes gleamed as he accepted the Five-colored Origin Starlight Shield component from Song Chi.
His Immovable Ming King was currently equipped with only a Black Energy Shield, and his Guidance Technique had just reached the Eighth Rank. He had been pondering how to secure a three-colored shield, so Song Chi’s gift was a massive, unexpected boon.
Furthermore, he was genuinely happy for Song Chi’s progress.
Since Song Chi was discarding a Five-colored Origin Starlight Shield, it meant the shield now equipped on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong was of an even higher tier, likely a peak-tier five-colored or better.
Shaking off his distractions, he answered Song Chi’s previous question:
"Over the last ten thousand years, the family has been preparing to ascend as the civilization’s Fifth Heavenly Pillar Royal Family. We abolished the population caps, and the direct bloodline now exceeds one hundred billion, with over a billion Torch Ship Captains."
"Among them, we have more than ten billion Captains between Zero and Third Rank, over three million Fourth Rank Zhulu Warship Captains, more than two hundred thousand Fifth Rank Battleship Captains, and even ten thousand Sixth Rank Fearless Ship Captains."
"Regarding the Seventh Rank Star Annihilation Level and higher elders, we currently have exactly 382. This includes 4 Galaxy Captains and 1 Superdimensional Captain."
Song Chi’s interest was piqued by these numbers.
"Oh? The family has a new Galaxy Captain? Who is it?"
Song Shiyuan smiled broadly at the question.
"It’s that youngster, Yiming."
Song Chi was surprised; he had expected it to be Song Xingru or Song Xuancang. He hadn't expected Song Yiming to be the one.
In his memory, Song Yiming’s harvest during the Origin Star mission years ago had been mediocre. It was impressive that he managed to break through to Galaxy Captain without any direct help from Song Chi.
"After the Origin Star mission ended, the boy went on an expedition into an Alien Star Domain. He was lucky enough to find a civilization ruin from the Multiverse Era, where he found a High Rank promotion resource. Combined with the Luck Holy Blood from the Chaos Divine Land, he successfully promoted."
"At that time, Little Chi, you were preoccupied with the Lanikea River System Cluster expedition, so the patriarch decided not to bother you with the news."
Song Chi nodded, understanding the situation.
While having four Galaxy Captains was a step forward, he still felt it wasn't enough.
"It is still insufficient. The family’s peak strength is too low. We must continue our current course; if we lack top-tier power, we must make up for it with a massive population base. The Torch Civilization is about to face its most dire crisis yet, and it is uncertain if we will survive.
If disaster strikes, a larger population increases the odds of our civilization's legacy continuing. Relay this command to the whole family: there must be no laziness in the next ten thousand years!"
"Understood!"
