Chapter 401: Upgrade Choices and the Oath Contract
Chapter 401: Upgrade Choices and the Oath Contract
Three Silver Apples, two Sixth Rank and one Seventh Rank, their value was unimaginable.
Just the two Sixth Rank Silver Apples alone could transform the Yin-Yang Synergy Pendant into a silver-tier legendary component, and the Seventh Rank Silver Apple could create another silver component. If sold outside, their worth would be beyond comprehension.
Thinking about this, Song Chi inquired about the origins of these Silver Apples, including the previous Northern Dipper Palace·Rao Guang Star Order.
In his opinion, although Shen You Ran's family had returned to the Shen Clan, the North Dome Shen Clan's heritage was also profoundly terrifying. It wasn't surprising for them to possess such items, but the Shen Clan's influence extended far beyond just their heritage; their population was even more impressive.
Shen You Ran's talent was indeed remarkable, as she awakened with a purple Flame Seed and had since evolved it to an orange Flame Seed. But could this alone justify the Shen Clan's investment of such valuable resources? Song Chi was somewhat skeptical.
When Song Chi asked about these items, Shen You Ran naturally didn't hide anything and soon recounted the entire story.
After hearing everything, Song Chi finally understood and couldn't help but marvel at this young lady's incredible luck.
It turned out that not long after Shen You Ran's awakening, she discovered an abandoned Flame Warship from their civilization in an unexplored star domain. It was a Fifth Rank Battlecruiser.
According to Shen You Ran, the previous Battlecruiser Captain had encountered an accident during the warship's return, interrupting its journey and causing him to miss the opportunity to rejoin the Flame human civilization.
At that time, he was only a Deer Hunt Ship Captain, and later, while drifting in the unexplored star domain, the warship miraculously advanced to a Battlecruiser. Unfortunately, by then, not much time was left for him, and he passed away before his Guidance Technique could break through to the Fifth Rank.
The Northern Dipper Palace·Rao Guang Star Order was obtained from this dormant warship.
As for the Silver Apples at hand, they were the rewards Shen You Ran received after turning in the dormant warship, including its group amplification-type component, to the Shen Clan. The clan gave her four Silver Apples, two Sixth Rank and two Seventh Rank, and one of the Seventh Rank Apples had already been used.
After Shen You Ran's explanation, Song Chi began contemplating which three components to use the Silver Apples on. The two Sixth Rank Silver Apples were undoubtedly meant for the Yin-Yang Synergy Pendant, but the decision for the Seventh Rank Apple was more complex.
However, before he could continue his thoughts, Shen You Ran took out another red component.
Oath Contract lv0
Quality: Red
Attribute: Oath Spirit Bond
Attribute 2: Contract Level Enhancement by One Tier
Attribute 3: Oath Song
Cost: 20/s (Shadow Energy Points)
Effect: When the equipped warship is subjected to spirit or sound-based attacks, it will autonomously weaken their potency by 20%.
No charging or buffering required.
Upgrade Requirements: 20 strands of Star Sea Essence (Zero Tier), 2000 Shadow Energy Points, 1 ton of Light Sound Stone
{Oath Spirit Bond: Consumes 50,000 Shadow Energy Points to establish a special contract with a willing life form. This contract has a silver-tier priority (only silver-tier and above, and the enhancement level must not be lower than the level of the component that releases the contract to possibly release the contract), contract content: captain self-defined, contract time: captain self-defined, maximum number of contractors per instance: 0/5, number of contracts: a maximum of 1 contract can exist simultaneously.}
{Oath Song: After installation, a light and ethereal oath song will echo within the equipped warship, increasing the captain's mental recovery speed by 100% and their insight by 5%.}
Regarding this component, Song Chi understood Shen You Ran's intention; she was requesting a voluntary confidentiality contract regarding the Multiverse Marketplace.
Song Chi didn't refuse, not out of distrust towards Shen You Ran, but because the Multiverse Marketplace was a significant matter with far-reaching implications. Having an extra layer of insurance was always beneficial.
The Shattered Star Sea was filled with countless means of influence, and if they encountered mind manipulation, hypnosis, or soul-searching super abilities, the Multiverse Marketplace would be at risk of exposure. Only by signing this Oath Contract could they ensure the utmost safety.
Soon, the Oath Spirit Bond was successfully established.
The contract's specific terms were straightforward: not to disclose the existence of the Multiverse Marketplace in any form. At Shen You Ran's insistence, the contract's duration was set to be permanent.
Unless Song Chi no longer needed to hide his identity and the Multiverse Marketplace was openly revealed, this contract could not be dissolved.
After signing the contract, Song Chi enhanced this component to lv50. The titanium crystal used for the enhancement was exchanged from the Rao Guang Star Tower's marketplace, and after two decades, the exchange limit had long been refreshed.
Upon reaching the Fifth Rank, the effectiveness of its "Oath Spirit Bond" attribute significantly improved.
Oath Spirit Bond: Consumes 100,000 Shadow Energy Points... Maximum number of contracts per session: 0/30, Total Contracts: Up to 6 contracts can exist simultaneously.}
Additionally, the two of them also evolved their Yin-Yang Synergy Pendants to the red quality, and as long as they complete the binding, they will transform into two silver-colored components.
Speaking of these two Yin-Yang Synergy Pendants, the two naturally started discussing the issue of the warship's promotion.
"You Ran, what's your current level of comprehension in Spatial Law?"
"0.59%!"
Hearing this, Song Chi was not surprised. Although Shen You Ran is now also an immortal noble descendant, she only returned to the family midway and is not from the direct lineage. The fact that she has comprehended Spatial Law and has made such progress is already a testament to her talent in this field, as well as the assistance from the original secret realm controlled by the Shen family.
With the addition of five Spatial Law Fruits and about ten years of buffer time before breaking through the fourth rank in Guidance Technique, it won't be difficult to reach 1% in the end.
"What about your Genetic Bloodline Talent?"
"45!"
Apparently, the Shen family also has special resources like the Blood Bodhi to enhance the Genetic Bloodline Talent, and there might even be better ones, but they are not for Shen You Ran's use.
Song Chi's eyes shifted, his thoughts racing.
With Shen You Ran's current Genetic Bloodline value, and with the two bloodline baptisms from the Bloodline Baptism Platform, it won't be difficult to increase it to above 50 points. This way, when her Guidance Technique breaks through the fourth rank, the law amplitude can reach around 16 to 18 times. Adding the ten-year law amplitude period, the possibility of reaching 30% before the Great Expansion War is still quite high.
With this thought, Song Chi no longer hesitated.
"Have you collected the special resources that might be needed for the Snow You's promotion to the fourth rank?"
Understanding that Song Chi wanted to complete the warship's promotion as soon as possible, Shen You Ran nodded lightly.
"Since that's the case, let's start the warship promotion mission in a few days, shall we?"
After confirming this, the two cuddled for a while longer, and then Shen You Ran left.
Upon returning to the Azure Sky, Song Chi took out the seventh-rank Silver Apple and then turned his gaze to the various components of the warship.
With the current configuration of the Azure Sky, there were quite a few components that could make use of this seventh-rank Silver Apple.
The Enslavement Medal, Behemoth Heart, Chi Cang's 004th Cultivation Realm, Spirit Gaze Eye, Soul Annihilation Eye Cannon, Hyperpower Controller, Spirit Summoning Puppet, Mother-Son Spirit Control Ring, Black Gold Horn, Fallen Angel Soldier Tree, and the newly acquired Oath Contract.
A total of eleven components.
Song Chi hesitated for a while, but in the end, he settled his gaze on the Chi Cang's 004th Cultivation Realm component. This onboard cultivation realm not only represented the realm itself but was also connected to the Silver Apple Mother Tree within it.
As one of the most valuable types of starry sky plants, the Silver Apple Mother Tree is not only extremely rare but also has excellent potential. It can grow up to the seventh rank, and once it reaches that level, it can continuously produce seventh-rank Silver Apples, making it priceless.
However, the prerequisite for all this is that Chi Cang's 004th Cultivation Realm must be enhanced to the seventh rank. This Silver Apple Mother Tree has already been tightly fused with the cultivation realm by the three-eyed royal sovereign, Chi Cang, and the upper limit of the cultivation realm is the key to everything.
Apart from this cultivation realm, Song Chi had also considered other components, such as the newly acquired Oath Contract.
But components with confidentiality agreements are already rare, and red ones are even rarer. Not to mention the even rarer and more precious decontracting components, and silver-quality or higher decontracting components are virtually non-existent. In this regard, the Oath Contract does not need to be promoted.
So, Song Chi finally chose the Chi Cang's 004th Cultivation Realm component.
Soon, this onboard cultivation realm component was promoted to silver quality, and just like the Yin-Yang Synergy Pendant, it didn't require him to actively provide new resources. After the promotion, this component spontaneously derived a fourth trait.
Chi Cang's 004th Cultivation Realm lv50
Quality: Silver
Trait: Plant Growth Speed increased by 210%
Trait 2: Success Rate of Heterogeneous Plant Transplantation increased by 60%
Trait 3: Realm Accelerator
Trait 4: Time Essence
Consumption: 1400/s (Shadow Energy Points)
Effect: After installation, the realm will be completely bound to the warship, becoming an onboard realm that can be entered and exited freely.
No charging or buffering required.
Current Realm Creatures: Silver Apple Mother Tree (Fifth Rank), Ten Dragon Blood Trees, Tempering God Fruit Tree, Crimson Blood Peach Tree, Spatial Law Tree, Light Law Tree, etc.
Upgrade: 10 strands of Floating Land Essence (Fifth Rank), 300,000 Shadow Energy Points, 154 Titanium Crystals, 1 Fifth Rank Void Crystal, 54 Law Stones
Note: This component occupies 3 slots
{Realm Accelerator: Consumes 100,000 Shadow Energy Points to accelerate the realm once, current acceleration rate is 150x (current component level), cooldown time is 1 year.
{Time Essence: A special resource of the time category, one drop is formed every ten thousand years, and it has a very special effect.}
For this advanced cultivation realm, Song Chi's gaze was fixed on the newly appeared "Time Essence" characteristic.
Rather than calling it a characteristic, it was more like a special resource.
Obviously, with the improvement in the quality of the component itself, the rank of its realm had also increased. Originally, this cultivation realm was just an ordinary Star Sea realm, but now it had evolved into the lowest-ranked Primordial Realm, with an additional special time-based resource.
As for the Primordial Law that had manifested within, it was still very rudimentary at this point, requiring a long period of evolution. Even after completing the evolution, it would not be able to match the effects of the Dragon Backbone Realm. Even among the Primordial Realms, the Dragon Backbone Realm was the most top-notch, and this cultivation realm was still far from reaching that level.
...
Three days later, in the sky above the North Dome Floating Continent.
A beam of light emerged from the Snow You Cruiser and swiftly attached itself to the nearby Morning Star Kingdom. After the two warships activated the inter-domain deployment, they waited for the deployment to finish charging. Then, under the watchful eyes of Shen Fu and Shen Mu, the two cruisers deployed to a different star sea domain.
Of course, this was not a random deployment. It was a star domain that Shen You Ran had previously marked with a spatial beacon during her exploration of the foreign star domain.
"Is that the Thunder Stele Floating Continent?"
Not far from the deployment point of the two warships, a floating continent wrapped in thunderclouds hovered quietly in the starry sky.
According to Shen You Ran, this floating continent was called Thunder Stele Floating Continent, a fourth-rank life-type special celestial phenomenon continent with a considerable number of third-rank and fourth-rank indigenous creatures.
"Hmm, the dominant tribe of this Thunder Stele Floating Continent is the Thunder Hell Wolf Clan, and there are no less than three digits of fourth-rank Thunder Hell Wolves."
Shen You Ran had more to say, but at this moment, the cabin door of the Morning Star Kingdom opened, and two fifth-rank creatures with fiery flames all over their bodies flew out.
Song Chi's idea was simple: to directly suppress the entire Thunder Stele Floating Continent with the formidable strength of the two fifth-rank creatures.
As for the Floating Land Shield outside the floating continent, which was supported by the entire floating continent itself? If it were before, Song Chi would have been more hesitant, but now things were different.
Not only did the Morning Star Kingdom have a silver main cannon enhanced to the fifth-rank limit, but it also had the Piercing Cone component specifically designed to counter Floating Land Shields.
The two warships first flew swiftly towards the Thunder Stele Floating Continent. Once the Piercing Cone, which had been enhanced to level 50, was activated, a beam of light shot out from the Morning Star Kingdom and penetrated the Floating Land Shield a short distance away. The shield of the Thunder Stele Floating Continent was quickly torn open with a crack several meters wide.
This was not the end, of course. Before activating the Piercing Cone, the Morning Star Kingdom had already charged its two main cannons, which roared one after the other.
The terrifying attack, formed by the fusion of the Soul Annihilation Eye and the True Immortal Quantum Sword Light attack traits, shot out.
Boom!
Amidst the intense explosion, the originally small crack with a diameter of several meters began to rapidly expand.
However, when the final energy shockwave dissipated, what appeared before Song Chi and Shen You Ran was still just a crack with a diameter of only a few hundred meters.
Regarding this, Song Chi sighed, acknowledging that it was indeed a Floating Land Shield supported by an entire fourth-rank Floating Continent, and even with that, only such a negligible gap had been torn open.
However, he had anticipated this, and under his command, the Flame Wrath Titan quickly flew out. When it approached the crack in the Floating Land Shield, its crimson arms reached out, and its two heads firmly grasped the edges of the crack.
The Law of Fire circulated between its arms, and with the terrifying bloodline divine power of the Giant Clan and the nearly perfected Law of Fire, the crack began to slowly widen.
It wasn't until the diameter approached two kilometers that the Morning Star Kingdom, the Snow You Ship, and the Flame-breathing Dragon, which had shrunk back to its original size, all entered the interior of the Thunder Stele Floating Continent through the crack.
It was only at this moment that more than a dozen fourth-rank Thunder Hell Wolves, which had hurriedly flown up from below, appeared from the thunderclouds. But it was too late; the fifth-rank Flame-breathing Dragon, whose body had rapidly expanded, had already revealed its full glory.
