Chapter 242: Divine Palace Treasure Vault - Fifth-Rank Floating Continent Essence
Chapter 242: Divine Palace Treasure Vault - Fifth-Rank Floating Continent Essence
Song Chi was not to blame for his reaction.
After all, prior to this, his only two encounters with fourth-rank units were with fourth-rank creatures that were not at their peak. Even then, he had to use all his means to deal with them.
To easily resolve a fourth-rank creature, especially one that was almost at the peak of the fourth rank with the support of a Grade 4 Floating Continent Core Law, was naturally a bit dreamlike.
Of course, the reason he was able to kill this fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member so easily this time was not only because it had been injured by Xiao Bei's "Northern Vessel" but mainly due to the green light emitted by the "Northern Vessel."
Secondly, it was the "Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light" and the full-force law attack of the fourth-rank Void Demon.
The green light had momentarily immobilized the fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member, allowing Song Chi's two powerful attacks to achieve their maximum effect, which could be considered the primary reason for the success.
As for what kind of component ability this green light was, Song Chi had various speculations, but he could not confirm it.
However, one thing was certain: the component that triggered this green light was likely an orange-quality component that had been enhanced to the fourth rank.
An ordinary purple component, even if enhanced to the fourth rank, would find it difficult to affect a fourth-rank creature with the support of a Grade 4 Floating Continent Core Law. Only a legendary component could achieve this.
Hmm... In that case, at least four orange-quality components were on that Northern Vessel.
His gaze shifted, and the Northern Vessel was already approaching, pulling Song Chi back to reality.
Connecting to the communication request from the other vessel, Song Bei spoke first in gratitude.
"Many thanks, Brother Chi, for your assistance. I am truly grateful for your help today!"
Song Chi nodded lightly, smiling as he conversed with the other while activating the [Proportional Scaling Device] on his vessel.
Once the fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member was reduced to about 20 meters in size, he pulled it into the warship without hesitation.
Although the other party had contributed significantly to killing this fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member, this still involved a fourth-rank Blood Bodhi and a drop of fourth-rank creature blood. Song Chi had no intention of sharing with the other.
After all, he had taken the initiative to save the other. Even if the other had a life-saving trump card, they could still ensure their safe retreat even without his help.
However, this time buffer would inevitably be long, and preserving it was beneficial. Moreover, even if the other had a life-saving method, it had nothing to do with killing this fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member.
No matter what, the corpse of this fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member belonged to him.
As the corpse of the fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member was gradually pulled into the Cobalt Vessel, there was no trace of reluctance in Song Bei's eyes. Instead, he was more interested in the component on the Cobalt Vessel that could infinitely scale the corpse.
Song Chi briefly introduced the [Proportional Scaling Device] to him and then the engine of the Cobalt Vessel roared again, indicating his intention to leave.
This action seemed to spur Song Bei to make a decision, and he spoke up to retain him.
"Brother Chi, wait a moment!"
"??"
Song Chi was puzzled but stopped to hear what this deeply hidden clan brother had to say.
Song Bei was a few months younger than him and had awakened his Flame Seed a bit later. In less than three years, his vessel had such a configuration, which piqued Song Chi's curiosity.
Seeing the Cobalt Vessel stop, Song Bei quickly organized his thoughts and then said succinctly:
"Brother Chi, are you interested in visiting the territory of this fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member?"
Song Chi raised an eyebrow. The territory mentioned by the other reminded him of the ignorant self-proclaimed Bloodti deities and their divine territories. A mocking smile flashed in his eyes.
He had almost forgotten that each of these self-proclaimed Bloodti deities had established a divine territory.
Although he had always held a mocking attitude towards these "small fourth-rank deities," a fourth-rank creature's territory was still highly attractive to him.
These creatures did not have storage spaces or similar abilities, so most things were stored in their territories.
"Territory? Are you sure there isn't another fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member there?"
Song Chi had already made up his mind. Even if there were other fourth-rank Bloodti Clan members, as long as there were not more than three, he was confident he could retreat safely with the Cobalt Vessel. Naturally, he wanted to go and check it out.
It just so happened that he was currently in need of third-rank and fourth-rank Floating Continent Essences, as well as various resources. However, he still needed to confirm the information about the divine territory.
Song Bei's response was quick.
"There are only three fourth-rank Bloodti Clan members in the Blood East Region. Two of them jointly established the Blood East Divine Kingdom. This one is not one of the deities of the Blood East Divine Kingdom..."
Hearing this, Song Chi understood. This fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member was the only loner among the three fourth-rank Bloodti Clan members in the Blood East Region.
"Since that's the case, let's go and see this so-called Bloodti deity's territory..."
The fourth-rank Bloodti Clan member they killed was named Ti Mei, and its territory was located in the northern part of the Blood East Region, covering only about one-tenth of the Blood East Region, far from the Blood East Divine Kingdom.
Even so, Song Chi and Song Bei were highly anticipatory.
As they knew, this deity named Ti Mei had been a deity for over a thousand years and had established its territory for eight hundred years. The assets of a peak fourth-rank creature over a thousand years would naturally be enviable to the two second-rank Flame Vessel Captains.
The two escort vessels moved quickly. Since they were leaving in a few days, they did not waste time and immediately activated the spatial leap components.
With the only fourth-rank unit already dead, the two had no qualms. The leap point was directly above the capital of the Ti Mei Kingdom.
As the capital of a Bloodti deity, the number of Bloodti Clan members in the Ti Mei capital exceeded a hundred million, which was quite astonishing.
Seeing this, Song Chi summoned the Void Demon with the brainwave imprint and 35 Void Shadow Killer puppets to hunt in the giant city below, followed by hundreds of humanoid aliens.
After doing this, he and the Northern Vessel quickly rushed into the Ti Mei Palace.
As one of the few deities on the Bloodti Floating Continent, the palace Ti Mei built for himself was extremely luxurious.
Size was one aspect, but the key was the large number of loyal guards. As the two vessels entered, they quickly alarmed the Ti Mei guards.
Among them were several third-rank existences. With the support of the Floating Continent Core Law, these guards had the combat power of half-step fourth-rank entities. Although they could not pose a fatal threat to the two vessels, they significantly delayed their exploration of the vast palace.
Reluctantly, Song Chi recalled the Void Demon.
Although the warship's main cannon could easily kill these half-step fourth-rank guards, in terms of speed, nothing could match the elusive Void Demon.
With the assistance of the Void Demon, the two frigates advanced deeper into the divine palace.
Outside a sealed storage room made of an unknown metal, Song Chi and Song Bei exchanged a glance. In the next second, the two frigates retreated to a certain distance. Once they reached a safe position, the main cannons of both warships opened fire, unleashing their firepower on the seemingly formidable storage room door.
The hardness of this unknown metal was astonishing. Song Chi and his companions had no specific method to open the storage room. Song Bei had enslaved a third-rank guard, but the answer was that only Ti Mu herself could freely enter and exit this storage room.
Therefore, they could only resort to this most primitive method.
In front of two fourth-rank orange main cannons, even with the incredible hardness of the metal used to construct the storage room, it only took a few hours to blast open. Once they confirmed the gap was large enough, the Cobalt Number and the Northern Number ceased their attacks.
Two Void Shadow Killer Puppets and a gargoyle puppet summoned by Song Bei charged into the breach. After confirming there was no danger inside, the two warships followed the breach into the storage room.
"Indeed, it's the divine palace's treasure vault..."
Looking at the neatly arranged items, Song Chi and Song Bei had different expressions on their faces.
The accumulation of a thousand years of peak fourth-rank creatures, combined with the buff from a divine kingdom spanning nearly a billion miles, the items and resources in this divine palace's treasure vault were countless. At first glance, it left Song Chi feeling dazzled.
Items like the Thousand-Year Red Fruit, Ten-Thousand-Year Wood Spirit Flower, Ten-Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood, Mercury Crystal, Iron Mother, Floating Continent Essence, and various quality Starsea Rarities, among others.
Although most of these items were of no use to Flame Torch Warships, even the small portion of mineral resources, Floating Continent Essence, and Starsea Rarities was still quite astonishing.
Song Chi and Song Bei even found a small pile of Titanium Crystals, numbering over 2,000, which was certainly a pleasant surprise.
Next came the Floating Continent Essence. There was no need to mention the lower-tier Floating Continent Essence of zero, first, and second ranks, which numbered in the millions.
However, their attention was focused on the third and fourth-rank Floating Continent Essence. The third-rank Floating Continent Essence exceeded ten thousand strands, and even the fourth-rank Floating Continent Essence numbered in the hundreds, with twenty strands of fifth-rank Floating Continent Essence.
For a moment, both were stunned upon seeing the fifth-rank Floating Continent Essence, but they quickly recovered.
The Bloodti Floating Continent was a Grade 4 Star Sea Floating Continent, so it was not unusual for it to occasionally produce some fifth-rank Floating Continent Essence.
Apart from the Floating Continent Essence, the most eye-catching items were the hundreds of Starsea Rarities emitting various colors of radiance.
After a quick tally, the total number of Starsea Rarities was four hundred and two, including three hundred and sixty-two white rarities, thirty-five blue rarities, four purple rarities, and one orange glory quality rarity.
Unfortunately, nearly a hundred of these rarities could not be converted into ship-mounted components, and even two out of the four purple rarities could not be converted.
The good news was that the single orange rarity could be converted, and it was a decent piece of ship hull armor.
Song Bei's eyes lit up at the sight of this ship hull armor, but neither of them had any intention of dividing the spoils on the spot. Instead, they hurriedly began to move the items from the treasure vault.
There was one more pleasant surprise. The treasure vault also contained a large amount of Blood Bodhi, numbering over ten million.
Although over eighty percent were zero or first-rank Blood Bodhi, the number of second and third-rank Blood Bodhi exceeded two million.
For Song Chi and Song Bei, this was undoubtedly a massive fortune, making them extremely excited.
Apart from the Blood Bodhi required for their sequence competition task, the rest could be actively exchanged for family achievement points. Such a large number of Blood Bodhi would certainly provide them with a substantial amount of achievement points.
On the Northern Number, Song Bei's eyes were filled with helplessness.
Although his flagship already had a high-quality spatial expansion component, it paled in comparison to the vast resources in the treasure vault of this enormous divine palace.
It didn't take long for his Northern Number to be completely filled, unable to hold even a single additional item. He could only watch as the Cobalt Number continued to work with one loading vehicle after another.
After about two days, when he was already somewhat numb, the resources in the entire treasure vault were finally moved out.
In the communication projection, Song Bei asked quietly,
"Brother Chi, may I ask, how large is the storage space on your warship?"
Song Chi shook his head with a smile, saying nothing.
In fact, less than one-third of the space in the cultivation secret realm was filled, but he couldn't reveal that his warship had a ship-bound secret realm, could he?
However, he was unaware that in a corner he couldn't detect, an elderly voice had already spoken in Song Bei's ear.
"Heh heh heh, I think your brother's warship is connected to a secret realm space. Otherwise, even with two fourth-rank orange quality spatial expansion components, it would be impossible to have such space, after all, it's just a frigate."
"Xiao Bei, if I were you, I'd quickly latch onto this guy. Your brother's opportunities are unimaginable..."
Leaving aside what happened on the Northern Number, after emptying the treasure vault, the two carefully searched the Ti Mu Divine Palace. Once they confirmed that most of the valuable items had been plundered, they left the divine palace and began their slaughter of Ti Mu Divine Capital.
After all, it was a divine capital of the Bloodti Clan with a population of over a hundred million. Even though a major riot had occurred two days ago, there were still many Bloodti Clan members of first rank and above remaining in the divine capital. Song Chi and Song Bei naturally wouldn't miss this excellent hunting opportunity, as these were all walking family achievement points.
Time passed quickly. Before they could finish clearing out the Bloodti Clan members that met their requirements, they had to stop and return, as the time to leave had arrived.
Thirty days had passed. If they didn't leave now, the breach in the Floating Land Shield would close, and they would have to wait for the next time a Tianmang Clan Elder activated this spatial component, which no one knew when would be.
