Chapter 257: [Life System Medical Repair Pod]
Chapter 257: [Life System Medical Repair Pod]
Even though it was an orange-quality Star Sea relic, Song Chi still had many doubts in his heart.
Previously, he had heard Zhou Ping explain everything about the [Market Travel Permit] very clearly, explicitly stating that at least a red epic-quality relic was required for the exchange.
"Or do these Treant people believe that this orange-quality relic can match a red epic-quality relic?"
Despite his doubts, he continued to examine it.
[Relic: War Treant's Heart]
[Quality: Orange]
[Convertible: {Fifth-Rank Treant Life Fruit} {Life System Medical Repair Pod}]
[Note: A War Treant's Heart grown within a fifth-rank war treant, containing rich and gentle wood-type law power, with various effects such as extending life and healing wounds. After a long period of cultivation by the Treant Royal Court, it has transformed into an orange-quality Star Sea relic.]
At that moment, Song Chi understood.
"It turns out to be a life-healing and life-extending relic, indeed much more valuable than other relics of the same rank."
As he muttered, information about the {Fifth-Rank Treant Life Fruit} began to surface in his mind. Since the Torch Human Civilization had a detailed introduction to the Treant people, it naturally had a good understanding of the Treant Life Fruit, one of the specialties of this race.
The Treant Life Fruit, which always forms within a Treant after death, often has effects such as extending life and accelerating the growth of lower-rank Treants. A fifth-rank Treant Life Fruit is said to extend life by over two hundred years.
While Song Chi was somewhat tempted by this, he placed more emphasis on the second conversion form of this relic, which was also the only ship component form.
He had been desperately seeking components like medical pods for a long time, but never found any. It was a huge surprise to find one in this market transaction.
An orange-quality medical pod component, as long as it wasn't damaged too severely, could basically keep a person alive and then slowly repair the injuries. It was something every Torch Vessel Captain dreamed of owning.
Life System Medical Repair Pod lv0
Quality: Orange
Property: Treatment Effectiveness Increased by 50%
Property 2: Blessing of the Wartime Tree
Consumption: 5000/unit
Effect: Uses life energy to fully heal and repair the biological entities within the pod. The treatment effect is halved for toxins, viruses, spore infections, etc.
No need for recharging or cooldown.
Upgrade Required: 10 strands of Floating Continent Essence (Zero Rank), 1000 Mana Points
[War Treant's Blessing: Consumes 10,000 Mana Points to use the power of a fifth-rank war treant to bless the biological entity within the medical pod, sealing all energy activities within the body and maintaining the last bit of life activity for one month. Cooldown time: ten years.]
After reading the attribute panel of the ship component, Song Chi made up his mind.
The [War Treant's Heart] was a must-have, and the [Life System Medical Repair Pod] it could convert into was crucial for the Cobalt Number.
Not to mention its specific healing effects, just the "War Treant's Blessing" characteristic alone was enough.
The cooldown time for this characteristic was indeed long, but it could save the last breath in a critical moment.
For example, if Song Chi were to suffer from spore infection or toxins in the future, and ordinary life energy treatments were ineffective, he could seal himself in the medical pod with the War Treant's Blessing when his life was in danger.
After that, he could let the semi-automatic ship AI and his enslaved creatures seek help or find a solution. While it might not guarantee his survival, it would provide a fallback option.
As for the sealing time, although it could only last a month at lv0, with subsequent upgrades, this time would likely increase.
Song Chi was very satisfied with the [War Treant's Heart], but he did not think that this single relic alone could match a red epic-quality relic.
His response was simple.
[Not enough!]
Seeing the reply on the projection screen, several second-rank Treants exchanged glances and then reluctantly took out another item.
A crystal about the size of a soccer ball, emitting a faint glow, but without any obvious relic aura, indicating it was likely not a Star Sea relic.
Song Chi was very familiar with this, as he had just seen a very similar one recently.
It was the half-fourth-rank life crystal produced by the near-fourth-rank Blood Crow Meat Locust, though this one was significantly larger.
"A fifth-rank life crystal..."
Seeing this, Song Chi fell into a brief contemplation.
A fifth-rank life crystal was undoubtedly valuable. If buried in the soil beneath the Silver Apple Mother Tree, it would greatly accelerate the tree's growth. Additionally, the two Silver Apples that had some life energy extracted would recover to their peak much faster.
He had considered this before, but even with the "Realm Accelerator" characteristic of [Chikura's 004 Cultivation Secret Realm], combined with the fourth-rank void crystal and Immortal Realm Fertile Soil, it was not enough to accelerate the Silver Apple Mother Tree by a thousand years in two months, which was necessary to restore the two Silver Apples. Therefore, he had not taken action.
However, with the addition of this fifth-rank life crystal, it seemed possible.
Thinking about this, Song Chi had a basic decision in mind.
Before challenging the [Bodhi Inheritance Tower], he dreamed of upgrading the [Light Energy Polymerization Engine] component to red quality, which would further enhance the various ship components of the Cobalt Number.
This would ensure that the Cobalt Number would perform better in the subsequent challenge of the [Bodhi Inheritance Tower], obtaining more valuable rewards.
If he could obtain a silver legendary-level reward...
[Add 30 strands of fourth-rank Floating Continent Essence + 10 Law Stones!]
Song Chi gave his final response, and the several Treants were somewhat hesitant. Finally, a second-rank Treant from outside the shop broke the deadlock.
"The market transaction will end in less than a minute, decide quickly!"
This statement made the several second-rank Treants in the shop make their final decision. They took out 30 strands of fourth-rank Floating Continent Essence + 10 Law Stones, along with the [War Treant's Heart] and the fifth-rank life crystal, and placed them all on the counter in the center of the shop.
Seeing this, Song Chi outside the shop thought for a moment, and a silver token floated in front of the several second-rank Treants.
After carefully receiving the [Market Travel Permit], a powerful repulsion force immediately came, and the entire market space fell silent, signaling the end of the market transaction.
In the free market area, Song Chi's figure rapidly changed, quickly transforming from the appearance of a Four-Armed Blueblood to his normal form.
His eyes flickered as he considered the specific arrangements for the upcoming tasks.
- Accelerate the Mystic Realm
- Enhance the components
- Use the Fire Hawthorns
- Purchase various special plant seeds
These were all urgent tasks, and the decision to purchase special plant seeds was a recent one. Since the Tree Folk Clan could produce Fifth-Rank War Tree Hearts and Life Crystals, it was clear that their resources were substantial. Therefore, he could confidently purchase large quantities of special plant seeds from his family.
However, the most pressing matter at hand was to begin the acceleration of Chikura's 004 Cultivation Secret Realm as soon as possible. Only by doing so could he ensure that the Cobalt Number's combat power would be significantly enhanced before heading to the star domain where the Bodhi Inheritance Tower was located.
In the underground chamber of the Blue Moon Estate, Song Chi and Song Ming Song stepped into the Dragon Blood Realm together.
The acceleration of the Fourth-Rank Void Crystal in the Dragon Blood Realm had just ended a few days ago, and Song Chi had already discussed the transplantation with Song Ming Song, so he did not hesitate.
Once they reached the location where the Dragon Blood Trees and Spirit Quenching Trees were to be placed, both of them started working.
Within a short period of about half an hour, the Immortal Realm Fertile Soil and ten Dragon Blood Trees and Spirit Quenching Trees were all transplanted into the Cultivation Secret Realm.
Thanks to the Immortal Realm Fertile Soil and the inherent benefits of the Cultivation Secret Realm, there was no failure in the transplantation.
After the Dragon Blood Realm's five-thousand-year acceleration, which equated to six thousand years in reality, the 20 new Spirit Quenching Fruits had already begun to form. They would need another 2,000 years to mature, yielding 20 more ripe Spirit Quenching Fruits.
As for the Dragon Blood Trees, two of them were specially cultivated to produce Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Blood Fruits. The 10 Dragon Blood Fruits on these trees had already surpassed 7,000 years and would become 10 Ten-Thousand-Year Supreme Dragon Blood Fruits in another 3,000 years.
The remaining eight trees had Dragon Blood Fruits that had just passed the 1,000-year mark. Song Chi's plan was simple: with the multiple accelerations in the Cultivation Secret Realm, one year in the outside world would equate to over 20,000 years in the realm, so he decided to cultivate all of them into Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Blood Fruits.
As for the Spirit Quenching Fruits, they should mature in about four cycles, yielding 80 fruits.
Thinking of this, Song Chi eagerly buried the Fifth-Rank Life Crystal in the Immortal Realm Fertile Soil beneath the Silver Apple Mother Tree, Dragon Blood Trees, and Spirit Quenching Trees.
Inside the Cobalt Number, the mechanical sound echoed.
"Confirm to activate the Mystic Realm Accelerator feature?"
"Confirm!"
With the confirmation, the entire Chikura's 004 Cultivation Secret Realm component was enveloped in a red glow, entering the acceleration state.
After finishing this, Song Chi posted a new thread on the family forum, titled "Special Plant Seed Acquisition."
The previous "Special Herb Acquisition" thread had already received a large number of responses. The specific storage and acquisition management were temporarily handled by his parents, and Song Chi had provided them with a large amount of Second-Rank and below Floating Continent Essence as acquisition funds.
Once the quantity increased, he would sell them to Zhou Ping under the guise of a Four-Armed Blueblood intermediary.
For the special plant seeds, Song Chi thought for a moment and finally entrusted the task to his fourth uncle and aunt.
His parents were already extremely busy, and his second uncle's family was responsible for the Terra Stones acquisition. As for his eldest uncle's family, Song Chi planned to have them help sell the large stockpile of storage capsules after he advanced to the family's Seventh Sequence.
These trading channels would require a significant amount of time, and Song Chi himself did not have the patience to handle them in detail. He could only rely on his elders to manage them.
Of course, the benefits from these transactions would not be overlooked by his family elders. Although it would take a considerable amount of time, the enhancement of their flagship's combat power would be several times faster than the exploration in alien star domains, and there would be no need to worry about any dangers.
After arranging these matters, Song Chi returned to the Market Ruins. He did not rush to enhance the Life System Medical Repair Pod component but instead locked himself in the All-Attribute Training Room.
With two Three-Thousand-Year Fire Hawthorns in hand, he was eager to use them.
Combined with top-tier body-strengthening elixirs and body-tempering ointments, along with the All-Attribute Training Room's Ether Energy training bonus, Song Chi spent over twenty days in the training room.
When he emerged, his body exuded a strong Ether Energy pressure.
His Guiding Technique level had soared from Level 26 to Level 29.
"Three-Thousand-Year Fire Hawthorns indeed have astonishing effects, but it's a pity I only have two of them..."
The two Fire Hawthorns had placed him at the peak of the Second Rank, but Song Chi knew very well that while he was at the peak of Level 29, the step to the Third Rank was not an easy one. Without higher-year Fire Hawthorns, he estimated it would take him at least five years to break through.
There was no way around it; once his Guiding Technique level exceeded Level 28, the Ether Energy bonus from the All-Attribute Training Room significantly decreased, making it impossible to rely on it for further acceleration.
This was also why many Flame Torch Captains were so eager to enhance their flagships.
"Fire Elemental Life, I hope you don't disappoint me..."
It was difficult to obtain Deep Sea Clam Pearls for now, so he could only place his hopes on the Fire Hawthorns, hoping that the Fire Elemental Life would be up to the task.
After a quick rinse, Song Chi quickly returned. Summoning the Cobalt Number, he eagerly approached the Cultivation Secret Realm component. Once he focused his attention on the component, he quickly obtained the current status of the secret realm.
Nearly a month had passed, and the plants inside the secret realm had progressed nearly two thousand years. The 20 Spirit Quenching Fruits on the Spirit Quenching Trees were about to mature, and the Dragon Blood Fruits on the two oldest Dragon Blood Trees had reached 9,000 years. In about half a month, they would fully transform into Ten-Thousand-Year Dragon Blood Fruits.
However, Song Chi's focus was not on these but on the two fully recovered Silver Apples on the Silver Apple Mother Tree.
Without hesitation, he controlled two Void Shadow Killer Puppets to enter the Cultivation Secret Realm. With a thought, the two Silver Apples began to shrink rapidly and were soon brought out by the puppets.
Taking the two Silver Apples, Song Chi felt a surge of excitement but did not rush to use them. Instead, he refocused his attention on the Silver Apple Mother Tree.
If his estimation was correct, by the time the secret realm acceleration was complete, the Silver Apple Mother Tree should produce new Silver Apples.
