Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1862 - 904: Seven-Colored [Blessing of the Time God King] (2)

In such a manner, the Void Demon transformed into the "Sentinel" posted at this location. Should any unusual disturbances occur in the Southern Extreme Domain moving forward, be they from natural shifts or outside influences, Song Chi would detect them right away.

Once all tasks were finished, the Mirror Image Warship quietly pulled away from this Extreme Domain Space, carefully following its prior route on the return trip.

As the warship at last broke free from the reach of the Time Divine Hall ruins and reentered the somewhat "ordinary" Broken Star Sea Void, Song Chi managed to ease up just a bit.

With a shift in his mind, he summoned the Mirror Image Warship from afar using the [Divine Thought Chapter].

This trip to the Southern Extreme Domain brought back gains well beyond what was anticipated. Beyond securing the formidable Divine Artifact [Time Spirit Divine Spear] and the elite part [Blessing of the Time God King], the real value lay in uncovering the astonishing truths regarding the Four Dimensional Extremes and the Ascension Path. Yet this knowledge also brought a burden weighing like a towering peak.

"Strength... I still need more strength!"

Song Chi's gaze remained firm, pushing aside wandering notions.

Following that, his primary form headed back to the All-Attributes Cultivation Room, processing the bits of data swirling in his thoughts, while leveraging the cultivation space to boost his Spectral Energy practice. Together with the [Time Chess Board] and the fresh [Blessing of the Time God King] plus additional elements, he hastened his Guidance Technique progress, refined his grasp of Rules, and methodically advanced his Mythical Rank cultivation, silently preparing for the fated moment when the Heaven-Fighting Ruins' downfall would shake the heavens and chaos divine land along with all heavens and myriads of worlds.

Yet the wish for peace clashes with unyielding gales.

About three hundred years during his seclusion, an abrupt urgent alert pierced through the Soul Link—from a Mirror Image Warship he had repositioned and concealed long ago amid the ruins of the Immortal Realm Continent on the Void Sea Dark Side.

Song Chi's eyes snapped open, his awareness projecting without delay.

Through the Mirror Image Warship's viewing feed, that Immortal Realm Continent, which had drifted silently in the Void Sea Dark Side's depths, now found itself enveloped by an ineffable overwhelming force.

Hovering over the continent, a massive, inconceivable dark spatial whirlpool was gradually taking shape, its size even dwarfing the landmass below. From the whirlpool's core poured a horrifying Pulling Force, akin to innumerable unseen colossal grips, tightly clutching every part of the Immortal Realm Continent, yanking it forcefully from its hiding spot deep in the Void Sea Dark Side's veil, hauling it toward the standard star sea realm.

The sheer magnitude and command of this force went far beyond Song Chi's current understanding. Despite having ascended to the Mythical Rank long ago, positioned near the summit of the all heavens star sea, he couldn't deny the storm it unleashed in his soul.

He observed the chaotic spatial formations encircling the Immortal Realm Continent's shadowed edge, encompassing the infinite space storm zones, all crumbling like brittle panes under this dark whirlpool passage that appeared linked to some unavoidable terminus.

"This method... it has to be from a Transcender, or perhaps an elite among Transcenders taking action!"

Terror gripped Song Chi's core.

The covert force responsible for the Immortal Realm Civilization's fall was turning its attention back to this civilization's remnants after over five hundred thousand years?

Was it aiming to wipe out all remnants entirely, or... had it uncovered something new?

An intense feeling of peril nearly drove him on impulse to yank back the Mirror Image Warship at once, steering clear of that mysterious entity tracking the source and drawing peril upon himself.

However, right as his will started to stir, prior to execution—

Bzzz!

Inside the Mirror Image Warship, the duplicated [Heavenly Destiny Compass], perpetually engaged in hunting the locations of the other three Immortal Slaying Swords, abruptly unleashed exceptionally fierce surges across its domain.

The compass pointer shook wildly, directing toward those roughly a dozen hazy mist energy forms charging upward with fury, plunging into the black whirlpool passage's depths.

At that instant, clarity struck Song Chi deep within, realizing the three Immortal Swords he had pursued for ages were surely hidden among those dozen Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms.

Before, they had probably employed certain unique techniques to shield the three Immortal Swords thoroughly, rendering repeated uses of the [Heavenly Destiny Compass] fruitless. But with the turmoil now erupting at the Immortal Realm Continent ruins, they emerged from hiding of their own accord, desperate to flee the Immortal Realm Continent ruins that had confined them for more than five hundred thousand years, unwittingly exposing the three Immortal Swords.

Via the "Chasing Origin" function of the duplicated [Heavenly Destiny Compass], three clear coordinates of Sword Intent origins, mirroring the [Infinite Immortal Trapping Quantum Star Annihilation Cannon], spread out vividly on the Territory Star Map, shining like three vivid flares in the pitch blackness.

[Slaying Immortal]! [Immortal Extinction]! [Exterminating Immortal]!

The remaining three origin Immortal swords, potentially alongside the fourth glow possibly denoting the [Immortal Slaying Array Map], appeared openly before him, but as the black whirlpool reached full formation, the concealed powers tied to the Immortal Realm Civilization's destruction seemed to act, presenting a tough choice: forgo assembling the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, or venture forth and grasp the chance?

In that split second, Song Chi faced a tough bind.

His pupils narrowed tightly, his pulse racing fiercely, his thoughts refusing to settle.

Yet shortly after, a stroke of positive update came swiftly.

Those dozen or so Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms, upon ascending to the skies above the Immortal Realm Continent, didn't charge straight into the vast space whirlpool overhead like he had pictured. Rather, after soaring upward, they scattered on their own. In the end, these dozen Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms positioned themselves evenly across different sections of the Immortal Realm Continent, unleashing vast Mythical hazy mist energies that persistently operated on the Immortal Realm Continent underneath.

Thanks to the involvement of these dozen Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms, Song Chi soon spotted an oddity; their efforts clearly sped up the Immortal Realm Continent's relocation pace. They were truly aiding the space whirlpool channel overhead, boosting the pull of the Immortal Realm Continent ruins.

This finding was without doubt a boon for Song Chi. The Immortal Realm Continent was, after all, a Star Continent. Though badly shattered, its mass persisted.

Therefore, despite the aid from these dozen Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms, the full hauling operation couldn't wrap up in just ten days or half a month. Drawing from Song Chi's assessment of the ongoing haul rate and span, this period would stretch to at least beyond half a year, which surely provided him with crucial Buffer Time.

No matter if he decides to proceed or withdraw in what follows, he now possesses months to deliberate or scheme.

With this in mind, Song Chi's mind steadied promptly. He severed his mental tie to the Mirror Image Warship, starting to mull over matters deeply.

His mind raced at full speed, rapidly balancing the pros and cons. After roughly a few hours, a resolute spark ignited in Song Chi's gaze.

"Seeking fortune amid peril, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation stands as the ultimate offensive treasure from the Immortal Realm Civilization. Should it be collected, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong's fighting strength would surge to a whole new level, possibly emerging as the key asset against coming massive disruptions. Right now, the secret forces' primary aim must be hauling the continent proper: this marks the perfect instant to pilfer from the jaws of the beast!"

Decision reached, Song Chi wasted no more time.

Still, he understood clearly that this endeavor equated to snatching chestnuts from flames, operating right under the watch of a probable Transcender, where the tiniest error might spell endless catastrophe. Full-scale readiness was essential to slash dangers to the lowest possible.

"First off, under no circumstances send the real Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, and not even the often-used Mirror Image Warship should bear traces; a totally 'unmarked' and robust enough 'Enslaved Species' is required."

"Next, and crucially, gear up thoroughly to counter any fallout from the Transcender potentially stepping in."

In the end, the foe likely ranked among Transcenders' elite. Without proper upfront safeguards, even succeeding in grabbing the four Immortal Slaying Swords and Array Map from the Mythical Rank hazy mist energy forms might leave no way to deliver them to the Projection of the Markets of the Heavens. Though equipped with a bridging Divine Artifact such as the Projection from the Markets of the Heavens, escape couldn't be guaranteed.

This latter aspect truly posed the greatest hurdle.

Regarding the Projection from the Markets of the Heavens?

Song Chi promptly rejected the idea.

Now reinforced by the Eleventh Rank Peak's Mythical Status and the [Dao Origin Totem Pole], the Projection of the Markets of the Heavens could temporarily bestow half-step transcendence battle prowess on the Ruins Market Projection. But the Projection from the Markets of the Heavens was no longer hidden, and the Ruins Market Purple Mist Projection was easily identifiable. Moreover, the extended talks between Torch Civilization and the Projection from the Markets of the Heavens had circulated widely in the Broken Star Sea. Should the Projection from the Markets of the Heavens draw the secret forces' ire, Torch Humanity Civilization would probably get dragged in too.

Even if such a risk loomed, it touched on a whole civilization's fate. Song Chi would never stake everything on that roll of the dice.
