Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1823 - 887: The Torch’s Rising Fame (2)

"As the Corrosive Insect Swarm pulls back, the Evil Energy, Blade, and Chaos Giant Elephant races have endured severe defeats, forming a power gap! We ought to split our troops at once to claim these Chaos Cities, focusing on the leading Chaos Cities, before the other observing powers react!"

Ferdinand, known for his careful nature, chimed in:

"Splitting the troops is essential, yet it demands thorough preparation. Our forces have taken heavy damage in this clash, so we need to hold back some units to protect Human Emperor City and mend the barriers against unexpected threats."

"Furthermore, the crucial issue remains whether Torch Civilization possesses sufficient might to fully dominate those Chaos Cities, even for a short occupation?"

Song Chi showed strong support for these remarks.

"That's correct; even though Torch Civilization now commands five Mythical Immortal Ships and seven Mythical Enslaved Creatures, securing a Chaos City completely requires at least three Mythical Powers stationed per city, and supplies along with reinforcements can't be interrupted."

"Handling supplies won't be hard, given Zhu Tian Ruins Market's role in enabling trades across cities, but backing from Mythical Power is..."

Right then, his words cut off sharply.

The statement hung unfinished, but all those gathered instantly grasped its meaning.

For thousands of years as members of Zhu Tian Ruins Market, Torch Civilization knows its regulations well: beings up to Ninth Rank face no limits and can move in and out freely, yet Mythical Creatures get excluded.

Torch Civilization has discovered that Zhu Tian Ruins Market can evolve on its own, slowly boosting the life ranks of entrants, but no clear method exists.

It's impossible to predict if it will climb to mythical status, or when such an upgrade might occur.

From this angle, trying to use the Zhu Tian Ruins Market flaw seems impractical, at least at present.

Song Chi glanced around the chamber, noting the looks on faces, but he stayed quiet.

He knows full well that the Ruins Market's current level hits 99, close to breaking into Tenth Rank.

The explanation boils down simply.

Using the Chaos Divine Land flaw remains too risky; even if Zhu Tian Ruins Market upgrades to Tenth Rank later, he won't risk it lightly, wary of drawing the desire of those Transcenders.

Should the Ruins Market achieve mythical level, he'd feel assured enough to use the market's positional boost for direct talks with Transcenders, but only in one-to-one scenarios; if several Transcenders team up against him, outcomes turn unpredictable.

Song Chi believes averting this risk is vital.

As his mind kept turning over ideas, a Superdimensional Captain advanced abruptly.

"Tan Renhong, got a plan?"

As the fresh Superdimensional Captain from the Heavenly Eagle Tan Family, he aligns with the Chi Yu Divine Dynasty faction, so Ji Heng posed the question.

Tan Renhong gave a nod, followed by a flash of Ghost Light from his forehead, and in the next moment, a seven-colored orb burst from his Ancestral Torch.

All Heaven Six Harmonies Reincarnation Array lv0

Quality: Colorful/Extreme

Unique Feature: All Heaven Six Harmonies Reincarnation Array

Effect: When fitted to warships, it can independently assign matching coordinates and mark them as Reincarnation points; the present limit for Reincarnation coordinates stands at 6/6.

...

{All Heaven Six Harmonies Reincarnation Array: Drains substantial Spectral Energy Points to build teleportation portals at every Reincarnation coordinate site, allowing travel between them; the existing max teleportation range is 1 Light-Year.}

With Tan Renhong revealing the stats for the [All Heaven Six Harmonies Reincarnation Array] part, sparks of excitement lit up swiftly in the eyes of those watching.

Still, Ji Heng voiced the final comment.

"Did you check the upgrade rules for the part's teleportation range?"

"Answering Your Majesty, my experiments show that reaching Twelfth Rank allows transmission across a trillion light-years."

At these words, the thrill in everyone's core swelled further.

Song Chi felt immense satisfaction too.

One trillion light-years, even after the ten thousand-fold space compression in this Chaos Divine Land, still covers tens of millions of light-years, spanning elite spots like [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City] and [Split Mountain Ancestor City], plus Human Emperor City below, totaling five cities, leaving one spot open for any Low Rank Chaos City.

"Excellent, this [All Heaven Six Harmonies Reincarnation Array] part fits our needs perfectly; as reward, the Heavenly Eagle Tan Family can pick any item from the Contribution Mall afterward, and this contribution will tally as ten million points..."

With a grin, he set the prize for the Heavenly Eagle Tan Family, shifting attention back to the core matter.

"Agreed, the primary squad, under my lead along with Ji Heng and Ferdinand, will steer the Mythical Immortal Ship straight to [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City]. As one of the rare Superlimit Chaos Cities in the Heavenly Ape Star Realm, it demands quick capture."

"The secondary squad, headed by Song Chi and his Mythical Asura squad, assembling a top-tier armada, will reclaim one of the three elite Chaos Cities, [Mountain Splitting City]." Jiang Yuan's look carried consent and hope as it passed over Song Chi.

The stellar showing of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong in this fight earned admiration from all.

"The tertiary squad, guided by Star Universe Azure Dragon, Thirty-Six-winged Holy Angel, and Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, handles two of the three elite Chaos Cities."

"The quaternary squad, directed by Void Sea Flame Phoenix, Ruins Returning Annihilation Whale, and Planet Devourer, claims the remaining elite Chaos City."

"For Jiang Yi and Wilson, combine efforts to grab [Tianli City], close to Human Emperor City."

"Every move needs speed, accuracy, and ferocity! After takeover, trigger the city core without delay, fix the barriers, and rebuild core defenses as rapidly as possible!"

"Ying Yi, Human Emperor City falls to your watch!"

The strategy gained full backing, directives flew out fast, and Torch Civilization, this mighty war engine, sprang into smooth action right away.

Shortly after, over Human Emperor City.

Four Mythical Immortal Ships soared first, ripping the void en route to [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City] and [Split Mountain Ancestor City].

Trailing the four Mythical Immortal Ships came crack fleets made solely of Star Destroyers, Star Rivers, and various elite vessels, positioned as the foundational guards for the captured cities ahead.

Afterward, Torch-led armadas, spearheaded by multiple Mythical Enslaved Creatures, dispersed like scattered stars, dividing into groups and surging in every direction.

This abrupt pushback launched for real.

...

Song Chi positioned himself in the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong's command hub, gaze sharpening on the partially mended [Split Mountain Ancestor City].

Reports showed that post-conquest, merely a Blade Elite Team lingered for defense, overseen by one lone Tenth Rank Blade God.

"Charge!"

As expected, the overwhelming force of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong crushed the Blade Race detachment swiftly, letting [Split Mountain Ancestor City] slip into Torch Civilization's grasp.

It wasn't only [Split Mountain Ancestor City]; similar success marked other groups—this expansion strike proved far easier than the earlier stand at Human Emperor City.

On this occasion, Torch Civilization rode the wave of triumph with shining vigor, whereas foes lay broken, spirits crushed to nothing.

Yet Song Chi and his allies didn't realize that amid their rapid advance, Torch Civilization's renown raced through the Heavenly Ape Star Realm.

One lone race and its city, holding off the Five Races Alliance Army's assault single-handedly, even destroying over four Eleventh Rank Mythical Units.

Torch Civilization and Human Emperor City, buzzed about by the routed Five Races Alliance Army and Corrosive Insect Swarm, spread like wildfire across the Heavenly Ape Star Realm's domains.

Torch Humanity's title etched itself into the thoughts of myriad top powers in mere moments.
