Chapter 280: [Air-Condensing Tower] · Fifty Years · Song Family's First Ancestor

Inside the Cobalt Number, Song Chi rubbed his brow, feeling an indescribable sensation in his heart.

Over the past five years, he had never noticed any abnormalities in this spatial wormhole, let alone entertain the idea that it was not a natural wormhole but rather artificially created.

Ultimately, it was still due to his limited perspective, which could not be resolved in a short time. It required a long time to gradually enrich his experiences.

The group did not stay long in the core space of the giant asteroid and continued to move forward along the spatial wormhole.

When all the warships emerged from the other end of the spatial wormhole, most people were shocked by the scene before them.

Although they had heard the term "hundreds of thousands of kilometers" from Song Chi many times before, the actual sight was still deeply shocking.

Despite most of the people present being Fourth-Rank Flame Heart Captains who had lived for centuries, a Seventh-Rank Sovereign-level civilization warship was far beyond what they had seen before.

Not to mention, this warship was still waiting for them to explore further.

Even among the three ten-thousand-meter battleships, the three elderly ancestors of the family showed signs of excitement in their eyes, as this was a tremendous opportunity for them as well.

At this moment, the only female among the three Fifth-Rank ancestors of the Song family, who was on the far right of the three battleships, spoke up:

"Shiyuan, use the [Air-Condensing Tower] component. Given the current situation, this starfield will be completely devoured by the void in less than five years, which is far from enough for the family..."

In the main control room of the Immovable Mingwang battleship, Song Shiyuan nodded lightly. With a shift of his thoughts, the next second, silver light flickered within the ship, and the silver-quality [Air-Condensing Tower] component was activated.

Behind the three battleships, Song Chi and the others saw a vast spatial law surge out from the Immovable Mingwang and spread at an unimaginable speed throughout the surrounding starfield.

This anomaly quickly made everyone realize that something indescribable was happening in the surrounding starfield.

In the warship communication group, a clan elder with an extremely high seniority immediately recognized the anomaly.

"The space has solidified!"

With this, everyone turned their gaze and scanned the area, only to find that the utterly shattered starfield had indeed come to a complete standstill.

Not only had the spatial gales in the void rifts ceased, but even the expanding void on the periphery of this space had stopped its advance.

Just as everyone was curious, the voice of the Ancestor from the Immovable Mingwang sounded again.

"The surrounding starfield has been sealed. The sealing period is fifty years. After fifty years, this starfield will completely collapse. We don't have much time, so if you have any special exploration methods, don't hold back. The family will not withhold your share of the benefits..."

These words thoroughly ignited everyone's enthusiasm, and soon various remote exploration methods were deployed one after another.

Looking at the three battleships, the three people exchanged glances and nodded in unison.

The next second, thirty war puppets were deployed, and the deployment point was precisely the safe area outside the "armory corridor" that Song Chi had explored not long ago.

This scene was immediately noticed by Song Chi, causing his eyes to twitch slightly.

Among the thirty war puppets, twenty were Sixth-Rank, and the other ten were at the peak of Fifth-Rank. At this moment, they gathered outside the armory corridor, emitting a pressure that was no less than that of regular Sixth-Rank beings.

Song Chi had long informed the family about the Sixth-Rank Void Demon gnawing on a silver legendary artifact, so the target of the three elderly ancestors was precisely those Sixth-Rank and Fifth-Rank Void Demons.

A silver legendary artifact and multiple red epic artifacts were highly coveted, even by Fifth-Rank battleship captains. If they could, they certainly did not want these artifacts to be destroyed by the Void Demons.

The thirty war puppets successively surged into the rift that Song Chi had previously informed them about, naturally alarming the Fourth-Rank Void Demons guarding the corridor, leading to an immediate conflict.

For the Sixth-Rank war puppets, although they were also pseudo-Sixth-Rank, the significant rank difference made Fourth-Rank beings no match for them.

Of course, it was not a one-sided slaughter. It still took a Sixth-Rank war puppet some time to kill a Fourth-Rank being in a direct confrontation.

However, this was under the premise of a one-on-one fight. With twenty Sixth-Rank war puppets present, the battle situation was overwhelming.

"Be careful, the Sixth-Rank and Fifth-Rank Void Demons have been alarmed!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Sixth-Rank Void Demon rushed out from the open armory hatch, followed by several Fifth-Rank Void Demons, and the battle began.

A few minutes later, the three people aboard the battleship looked grim.

"It won't work. This Void Demon has the combat power of a seasoned Sixth Rank. The Sixth Rank War Puppets can't pose a significant threat to it."

"Can we lure it out of the warship? As long as there's no ship hull blocking it, I can immobilize it from a distance!"

Inside the Immovable Mingwang battleship, Song Shiyuan shook his head.

"A Sixth Rank Void Demon is already highly intelligent, making it very difficult!"

After a discussion, the three of them came to the same decision.

"Let the First Ancestor come out of seclusion. Not only this Sixth Rank Void Demon, but if my perception is correct, the life pressure inside the warship must be at the Seventh Rank level. Even if we manage to defeat this Sixth Rank Void Demon, it would be very difficult to bring back the corpse of the Seventh Rank Sovereign with our current War Puppets!"

"Agreed!"

...

In the command room of the Sky Dome, Song Chi received a communication from the clan head.

"Pool, do you want to stay here or return to the Dragon Spine Continent?"

Song Chi was taken aback but quickly understood something. After a moment of thought, he nodded and said:

"The subsequent events aren't something I can participate in. I should return to the Dragon Spine Continent!"

Clearly, Song Xuan Cang had already noticed that his Guiding Technique had broken through to the Third Rank, but his spirit power was still at the Ordinary Mind state. This could only mean one thing: he hadn't absorbed the Fourth Rank Purifying Soul Liquid yet. Therefore, Song Xuan Cang had proactively asked if he wanted to return to the Dragon Spine Continent.

Understanding this, Song Chi made the decision that would be most beneficial for him.

Staying here would only allow him to watch other clan members explore the super colossal flagship. Instead, he could return to the Dragon Spine Continent and absorb the Fourth Rank Purifying Soul Liquid, transforming his spirit power into the Divine Mind state.

"Clan Head, once I absorb the Fourth Rank Purifying Soul Liquid and reach the Divine Mind state, the subsequent inheritance secret techniques, law enlightenment, and so on..."

Previously, the First Ancestor had clearly stated that the exploration of this starfield might continue for another 50 years. Reaching the Divine Mind state wouldn't take that long, so Song Chi needed to consider these matters in advance.

Song Xuan Cang smiled and said:

"Don't worry about that. My projection avatar is still in the clan. Once you transform into the Divine Mind state, you can go directly to the Ancestral Hall, and my projection avatar will take you to the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm."

With this response, Song Chi had no further questions and immediately maneuvered the Sky Dome to turn around, returning to the core space of the giant asteroid.

Here, the Third Rank Relay Warship was already waiting for him, along with two cruisers. In addition to these, there were several Second and Third Rank clan members aboard the Relay Warship, all of whom were responsible for the inter-starfield relay in the future. They had already summoned their warships and established spatial beacons in this asteroid belt.

A light beam of integration shot out from the Sky Dome. Once the integration was complete, the two cruisers simultaneously activated their warship's active return function.

He hadn't misheard; during the exploration of the alien starfield, they weren't limited to returning only when the 24-hour exploration time was up. They could also choose to return actively, although most Flame Torch Warships wouldn't use this function. After all, the 24-hour exploration time was already short, and who would choose to return early?

As for those who encountered danger, the charging time for active return was very long, making it almost impossible to wait for the function to activate before the warship sank.

Fifteen minutes later, intense spatial fluctuations appeared around the two Flame Torch Warships, and they disappeared from the asteroid core space together.

In the sky above the Dragon Spine Divine Mountain, the two Flame Torch Warships quickly separated. The Sky Dome headed straight for the Blue Moon Estate, while the other cruiser remained suspended in the air.

Then, a Third Rank Flame Vessel Captain leaped out of the cruiser's hatch and summoned his own flagship. As this cruiser appeared, the previous cruiser, along with over a dozen clan members, descended below, leaving the second cruiser to remain suspended, as if waiting for something.

Song Family, Dragon Spine Mystic Realm.

Song Xuan Cang's projection avatar flew swiftly and finally stopped at the base of a massive mountain range.

If Song Chi were here, he would recognize this mountain range as the ancient one that resembled a prostrate dragon whale, which he had seen before.

After landing on the ground, Song Xuan Cang's projection avatar took steps and walked up the mountain.

Yes, he didn't choose to fly but climbed step by step.

After an unknown amount of time, when he was still some distance from the mountain's peak, the projection avatar stopped. A few steps ahead, a figure sat cross-legged on a raised bloodstone.

This figure was dressed simply, sitting quietly as if seamlessly blending with the mountain below. Occasionally, subtle and profound forces flowed through his body, creating a strange juxtaposition of the ordinary and the mysterious.

Behind him, Song Xuan Cang's projection avatar was filled with reverence. However, before he could speak, a calm voice already reached his ears.

"Xiao Cang, is there something you need?"

Song Xuan Cang bowed.

"First Ancestor, it's like this..."

After respectfully describing the matter in full, the figure in front of him, known as the First Ancestor, had quietly vanished. When the voice reached Song Xuan Cang's ears again, it was from his side.

"A Tier 7 Tri-Eye Royal Clan flagship? Tier 7 life aura? After being in seclusion for hundreds of years, the clan actually found such a level of opportunity?"

Song Xuan Cang's heart tightened, inwardly realizing that the old ancestor's understanding of spatial law must have advanced to another level. As someone who also followed the path of spatial law, he had not sensed anything beforehand.

Although he was only a projection avatar at the moment, it was still extremely formidable.

Not daring to think too much, Song Xuan Cang continued:

"A junior from the newly opened Tenth Direct Line discovered it. Not long ago, he also submitted an exceptionally impressive silver component to the clan!"

"Using the phrase 'exceptionally impressive' to describe it, it shouldn't be bad. What are the attribute screenshots?"

After reviewing the attribute images displayed by Song Xuan Cang, the voice beside him spoke again.

"Very good, very good. If it can be enhanced to Tier 6 or even Tier 7, it will likely provide some assistance to my flagship in the future. This contribution is significant; remember not to neglect the young ones below."

"Let's go. If we can gain substantial benefits from the Tri-Eye Royal Clan flagship, the Song Clan of Dinghai might have a chance to glimpse the immortal clans in the future!"

Song Chi was naturally unaware of what had transpired in the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm. After returning home, he first greeted his parents and then directly entered the Multiverse Market.

In the free market area of the Multiverse Market, Song Chi sat quietly on the ground, holding a porcelain bottle in his hand. Inside was the Tier 4 Purifying Soul Liquid.

Looking at the drop of Purifying Soul Liquid that he had exchanged for with fifteen Spirit Tempering Fruits, Song Chi's eyes flashed with unwavering determination.

This time, he was going to break through to One Heart Ten Usage and reach the Divine Consciousness State.

However, before using the Purifying Soul Liquid, he did not rush into it. Instead, he activated the Limit-Breaking State.

Currently, his mental power was at the One Heart Nine Usage level. In the Limit-Breaking State, he could just cross into the One Heart Ten Usage level.

His thoughts were simple. Although the Divine Consciousness State achieved through this method would not last long, it would allow him to experience the mental power of the Divine Consciousness State in advance, increasing his chances of successfully converting to the Divine Consciousness State with the Purifying Soul Liquid later.

As the Limit-Breaking State was activated, Song Chi felt an additional mental thread emerge. Under these ten mental threads, his mental power instantly seemed to be catalyzed by an unknown energy, surging wildly in his mind.

Song Chi could sense that his mental power was undergoing a significant transformation, a change from the virtual to the real. A large amount of mental power was continuously merging, and during this merging process, the originally illusory mental power was rapidly solidifying.

In this continuous merging and solidifying process, once a certain boundary was breached, Song Chi found that his mental power could spill out of his mind.

Countless fine threads of mental power extended outward, causing several Tier 3 Soul Cores deliberately stacked beside him to float in the air. This was something only the Divine Consciousness State could achieve, controlling objects with thought.

Moreover, Song Chi could now perceive the subtle and mysterious forces around him, the laws inherent to the Market Mystic Realm. Previously, he could not sense them, but now, under the Divine Consciousness State, he discovered their existence.

Song Chi even had a hunch that if he took out a few Law Crystals at this moment, he could begin to understand the fundamental laws within them.

However, before he could do so, a wave of intense fatigue flooded his mind, a sign that the Limit-Breaking State had reached its limit.

Reluctantly, he had to exit.

As he exited the Limit-Breaking State, the Divine Consciousness State mental power he had converted to receded like a tide.

This feeling left him with a sense of loss, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the intense fatigue.

Song Chi didn't think much about it and entered a deep sleep on the spot. Only by resting well could he begin to absorb the Tier 4 Purifying Soul Liquid later.

While he was in deep sleep, in the distant ancient star battlefield.

As a Flame Torch Warship with a captain reaching ten thousand meters appeared, the Song Clan elders all bowed respectfully:

"Welcome, First Ancestor!"
