Chapter 290: Family Rewards
It was precisely this few seconds of delay that determined the subsequent course of all the plans. By the time the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon broke free from the various negative states, the Dreadnought had already successfully completed its next move.
Of course, it wasn't that the spatial wormhole entrance had formed within those less than twenty seconds.
Because it needed to fix the landing coordinates, the component activated this time was the normal function of the [Spatial Wormhole Generator], not the "unpowered random wormhole gate" feature.
The creation of this normal spatial wormhole required one hour of charging and condensation. Even with the special charge-reducing components on the Dreadnought, it still took half an hour, which was far from enough.
What the Ancestor activated at this moment was another characteristic of the [Spatial Wormhole Generator] component: the "Wormhole Domain."
When this characteristic was successfully activated, the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon also rushed over. However, its spatial talent was powerless against the absolutely enclosed Wormhole Domain.
No matter how it attacked, it could not break through the spatial walls of the Wormhole Domain.
Thus, half an hour later, under its furious and unwilling gaze, the spatial wormhole entrance with a diameter of ten thousand kilometers finally condensed completely.
As the creator of this spatial wormhole, the Dreadnought had absolute control over it. With the Ancestor's mind command, a powerful suction force emerged from the spatial wormhole entrance.
This suction force affected not only the nearby Sovereign Battleship wreckage but also the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon.
The madness in the crimson eyes gradually dissipated, turning into a trace of panic. But before the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon could retreat, several special chains suddenly shot out from the Dreadnought.
Perhaps due to the additional boost from the Wormhole Domain, or perhaps due to the special nature of the chains themselves, space seemed to not exist in front of them. As soon as they emerged from the Dreadnought's hull, they instantly traversed the intervening space and pierced through to the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon.
Even the spatial law could not hinder them in the slightest. The chains brutally pierced through the Void Demon's flesh, instantly locking its entire body.
Under the pull of this chain, the Dreadnought and the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon slowly disappeared into the spatial wormhole entrance behind them.
Of course, along with them was the tens of thousands of kilometers of Sovereign Battleship wreckage.
Just before the Dreadnought completely vanished into the spatial wormhole, the temporary communication component in [Vast Boundless] received the final order from Song Xuan Cang.
"Return to Dragon Spine!"
...
Barren, scorching, and desolate, the Falling Fire Plain seemed no different from before.
However, this was just the surface.
Inside the large illusion, above the Falling Fire Plain, a super warship wreckage tens of thousands of kilometers long slowly emerged from a giant spatial vortex portal.
This scene was extremely shocking; if outsiders witnessed it, it would certainly cause an earthquake throughout the Morning Star Principality, and even the Radiant Han Kingdom would be alarmed.
However, with the concealment of the super-large combined illusion, nothing stirred.
Looking at another part of the sky tens of thousands of miles away, three battleships and dozens of Skirmish Warships were jointly suppressing a Void Demon.
Under the enhancement of the Dragon Spine Continent's origin rules, the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon was suppressed from the start. When the Dreadnought finally dragged the Sovereign Battleship wreckage over, this ten-thousand-meter-class Flame Torch Warship immediately joined the battle, further tilting the balance.
After dozens of minutes, the half-step seventh-rank Void Demon was completely suppressed.
"Shiyuan, you come and enslave it. A half-step seventh-rank Void Demon will be enough to deter many external forces, even if something happens to me in the future!"
"Ancestor, you..."
Song Shiyuan in the [Immovable Mingwang] wanted to say more but was immediately interrupted.
"Enough, don't put all your eggs in one basket. Do I need to teach you this!"
"Furthermore, order everyone involved in the matter of the Three-Eyed Royal Sovereign not to reveal a single word to the outside, or they will be dealt with according to clan rules!"
...
In the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm, at the waist of Dragon Whale Mountain.
Since arriving here nearly five years ago, Song Chi had not taken a single step away. Although there were more manifest laws to comprehend higher up, practicing secret techniques was currently the top priority.
Fortunately, heaven rewards the diligent. In nearly five years, Song Chi's progress in practicing secret techniques was quite satisfactory.
Standing up from the spatial inheritance stele, Song Chi stepped to the edge of the mountain waist platform.
With a mental command, strands of spatial laws began to condense around him. Although these spatial laws were extremely ethereal, far less solid than those condensed by the clan elders, Song Chi's control over them was very high.
Under his deliberate control, these spatial laws continuously gathered, eventually forming a phantom Dragon Whale. The Dragon Whale phantom swam around Song Chi, and it seemed as if one could hear the deep roars of the Dragon Whale echoing in the ears.
Indeed, in five years, he successfully mastered this offensive and defensive secret technique.
In addition, he learned a second secret technique, the [Return to Ruins Slash], from the spatial inheritance stele.
When he first arrived at this mountain waist platform more than four years ago, his spatial law comprehension was only 0.12%, not enough to practice the [Return to Ruins Slash]. So, he had to start with [Dragon Whale State] first. However, during the practice of secret techniques, the progress of law comprehension would slow down but not stagnate.
By the third year at this mountain waist platform, Song Chi not only successfully mastered the [Dragon Whale State] secret technique but also used an intermediate spatial law crystal to increase his spatial law comprehension to 0.15%. He then quickly began practicing the [Return to Ruins Slash].
Perhaps because he was already on the path of spatial laws, his comprehension of this spatial secret technique was very fast. He mastered this second secret technique in half the time it took to master [Dragon Whale State].
Additionally, in the past year and a half, his spatial law comprehension improved further, from 0.15% to 0.17%, which was a considerable speed considering that most of his time was spent practicing secret techniques.
Suddenly, the Dragon Whale phantom began to rapidly dissipate, but the scattered spatial laws quickly recondensed, forming a ten-centimeter-long Void Light beside Song Chi.
This was not anything else but the Void Light formed by the [Return to Ruins Slash] secret technique.
Although he had only just begun to master this secret technique, the Void Light he condensed was quite small, the cutting force and the Ruins Annihilation Force it carried were extremely intense, and its power was quite considerable.
Of course, this was a characteristic of the [Return to Ruins Slash] secret technique itself and did not hide the fact that he had just mastered it and still had many awkward and unsmooth aspects when performing it.
It seems I need to continue practicing, but I don’t have the time for that right now. Carefully calculating, I realize that the ten years are nearly up. It’s time to leave the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm!
Otherwise, all my Law perceptions will be permanently solidified into the incomplete Laws of the Mystic Realm, and I’ll never be able to correct them to the Star Sea Laws.
As he was thinking, a familiar figure appeared in Song Chi's field of vision—it was the Clan Head, Song Xuan Cang.
However, this time it wasn’t a projection avatar, but the Clan Head himself.
With the aid of a large amount of spatial law, Song Xuan Cang ascended the mountain at an extremely fast pace. Although he also stepped on the ground like Song Chi, in Song Chi’s eyes, it seemed as though he was folding large amounts of space with each step, covering hundreds or even thousands of meters with every stride.
"Step Shrinking?"
This was a term that instinctively popped into Song Chi’s mind, but before he could think more about it, Song Xuan Cang was already right in front of him.
"Clan Head!"
Song Chi respectfully greeted him.
Song Xuan Cang nodded, a faint smile on his face. He softly said,
"How was your ten years here?"
"Pretty good!"
Without much thought, Song Chi gave his most honest answer. He didn’t know how other clan members performed during their first Law perception, but he felt that his ten years here were quite fruitful.
Song Xuan Cang’s smile remained, but he didn’t press further.
"Let’s go. It’s time to leave. In the next few decades, you cannot enter the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm again. Only when your Law perception is completely assimilated into the Star Sea Laws can you re-enter the Mystic Realm for further perception!"
Song Chi nodded and followed the Clan Head down the mountain.
This time, Song Xuan Cang’s speed returned to normal. Song Chi understood that this was for his sake, but there was nothing he could do about it. His spatial Law perception level was what it was, and he couldn’t speed up even if he wanted to.
Just before leaving the Mystic Realm, Song Xuan Cang cast a gentle glance at Song Chi and softly said,
"The information you provided about the Three-Eyed Royal Clan’s Sovereign Battleship wreckage has greatly benefited the clan. After a discussion with the clan elders and several ancestors, we have listed several reward options. Think about what you urgently need."
Hearing this, Song Chi’s eyes lit up, confirming his suspicions.
When he decided to report the information about the ancient star battlefield, he had guessed that the clan might offer additional rewards, given the magnitude of the opportunity at the Seventh Rank level. Now it seemed his guess was right.
He quickly thought about what resources or components he and the Sky Dome currently lacked the most.
The entrance and exit of the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm were very mysterious. Song Chi still hadn’t figured out their exact locations, as they seemed to change each time he entered or exited.
Although he was a bit puzzled, he didn’t dwell on it too much.
The Dragon Spine Mystic Realm was one of the clan’s core assets, and the clan’s high regard for it was evident. All of this was to protect the Mystic Realm.
Exiting the Mystic Realm, Song Chi instinctively closed his eyes, his entire body seeming to cheer as it absorbed the essence of the external Star Sea.
While the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm was filled with countless manifestations of primordial Laws, making Law perception extremely efficient, it still couldn’t compare to the Shattered Star Sea. The Laws inside the Mystic Realm were incomplete, and staying there for ten years would be unbearable for anyone.
Following the Clan Head, they arrived at the Ancestral Hall. This time, there were no other elders or ancestors, just the two of them.
Before he could speak, Song Xuan Cang gently waved his hand, and soon a virtual screen appeared before Song Chi’s eyes.
On the virtual screen were multiple options:
Option 1: One self-selected silver component + one self-selected red component + 10 strands of 5th-Rank Floating Land Essence + one 4th-Rank Enslaved Creature Voucher
Option 2: One self-selected silver component + one 5th-Rank Enslaved Creature Voucher + one self-selected orange component
Option 3: Three self-selected red components + four self-selected orange components + one 5th-Rank Enslaved Creature Voucher
As his gaze swept over the three options listed on the screen, a hint of hesitation flashed in Song Chi’s eyes.
He immediately ruled out Option 3. Although the components offered were numerous, the difference between red and silver components was vast. Moreover, his current resources for high-rank components were limited, and fully reinforcing these seven components would be a challenging task.
He was hesitating between Options 1 and 2, both of which he could accept, but he found it difficult to decide.
After a moment of hesitation, Song Chi asked a seemingly unrelated question:
"Clan Head, I haven’t claimed my sequence resource subsidy for the past few years..."
Before he could finish, Song Xuan Cang waved his hand again, and a large mass of light appeared before Song Chi.
The light mass contained a large amount of resources that he hadn’t claimed over the past few years.
42,000 Titanium Crystals, 2,800 Law Crystals, 2,800 strands of 4th-Rank Floating Land Essence, 28,000 strands of 3rd-Rank Floating Land Essence...
Seeing this large amount of resources, Song Chi made his decision.
"Clan Head, I choose Option 2!"
With the addition of several thousand strands of 4th-Rank Floating Land Essence, combined with the dozen or so strands of 5th-Rank Floating Land Essence he already had, he could easily reinforce the Enslavement Badge to the 5th Rank. Without this restriction, the value of a 5th-Rank enslaved creature would be much greater for him.
Don’t forget that the "Enslavement Seal: Frenzy" characteristic can temporarily boost the enslaved creature’s combat power by one rank, although it cannot exceed the component’s reinforcement limit. The upper limit for red epic components is the 6th Rank, which is precisely enough to affect a 5th-Rank enslaved creature.
A 6th-Rank combat power that can be activated at any time is significant, to say the least.
It’s equivalent to a one-time 6th-Rank combat power summon card, which could turn the tide in the Sky Dome’s most critical moments.
With Song Chi’s choice made, the two headed to the family achievement tower.
According to the Clan Head, the three items from Option 2 could be freely chosen from the achievement tower.
Yeah... any item from the first 100 floors of the achievement tower.
Song Chi’s goal was clear; he went straight to the 80th floor of the achievement tower.
He had already visited the first 79 floors, so now that he had the opportunity, he naturally wanted to check out the 80th floor.
Moreover, the items available for exchange in the family achievement tower generally became more precious and valuable the higher the floor.
