Chapter 405: Dragon Spine Floating Continent Promotion
Chapter 405: Dragon Spine Floating Continent Promotion
Within the Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain, in the ancestral hall of the family.
After receiving the sequence subsidy resources he had accumulated, Song Chi heard a piece of news that was expected yet still somewhat surprising.
The Morning Star Continent, which was under the jurisdiction of the Morning Star Family, had been promoted to a Tier 6 Floating Continent more than a decade ago, marking the birth of the Morning Star Kingdom's first Tier 6 Floating Continent.
This news came from the mouth of the family head, Song Xuan Cang, so its authenticity was naturally beyond doubt.
In fact, he had heard some elders of the family mention this in the family elder's channel, so he was somewhat prepared for it. However, when the Morning Star Continent completed its promotion, he still felt a sense of disbelief.
After a brief moment of surprise, Song Chi quickly cleared his thoughts and stopped paying attention to the matter. Instead, he entered the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm for the second time under the guidance of the family head, Song Xuan Cang.
...
At the waist of Dragon Whale Mountain, the area where the Mystic Technique Transmission Stele was located.
Song Chi's purpose this time was very clear. As soon as he entered the Mystic Realm, he rushed straight to this place. Moreover, under the spatial law of Zhong Cheng, his traveling speed was extremely fast, and he arrived here in a short time.
As before, six Mystic Technique Transmission Steles still stood in the inheritance area. Among them, in addition to the gold and fire attribute inheritance steles, Song Chi could specifically comprehend and learn from the other four.
These four inheritance steles included the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele, the Spatial Mystic Technique Transmission Stele, the Light Attribute Transmission Stele, and the one with a missing corner, which recorded almost as many inheritance techniques as the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele.
Song Chi's first choice was naturally the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele and the Spatial Mystic Technique Transmission Stele. However, before that, he checked the Light Transmission Stele and the incomplete transmission stele.
The Light Law Stele recorded a total of four mystic techniques, and with Song Chi's small mastery of the Light Law, he could only learn two of them.
They were Aurora Stab and Blazing Light Technique.
Aurora Stab required a Light Law comprehension of 5% or higher. It was an extreme attack mystic technique that condensed a large amount of Light Law into a single point and then rapidly stabbed out.
Blazing Light Technique, on the other hand, was a burst-type mystic technique. It required a small mastery of the Light Law to attempt to cultivate, mainly by evenly distributing a large amount of Light Law over the body's surface and then using a special method to detonate these Light Laws, thereby achieving a comprehensive enhancement of one's own attributes.
In comparison, Song Chi preferred the Blazing Light Technique. Although it had a significant side effect after use, it could potentially save his life in critical moments.
Without rushing to make a decision, his gaze shifted to the incomplete transmission stele.
Even though this stele was already incomplete, it still recorded 13 mystic techniques, only two less than the 15 on the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele.
When his mind power entered this transmission stele, Song Chi was surprised to find that the universal mystic technique on this stele, which could be cultivated by any law, was partially incomplete.
[Mystic Technique - Mystic State: Any law comprehension not lower than 0.1% can be cultivated (Note: This mystic technique is partially incomplete, and it is not necessary to cultivate it).]
The name of this universal mystic technique was not complete, and the cultivation method was also incomplete, so Song Chi could only skip it.
He then saw several other mystic techniques.
[Mystic Technique - Mystic Chant: Speech Law comprehension must be at least 5% to cultivate.]
[Mystic Technique - Golden Mystic Finger: Gold Law comprehension must be at least 10% to cultivate.]
...
As he looked at it, Song Chi became increasingly suspicious. Compared to the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele, which included light, space, and universal techniques, the number of techniques on this incomplete stele far exceeded it.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of rank this incomplete transmission stele, obtained by the family from outside, belonged to.
His gaze moved downward, and Song Chi saw a mystic technique that was extremely suitable for him.
[Mystic Technique - Void Mystic Palm Seal: Spatial Law comprehension must be at least 40% to cultivate. (Note: This mystic technique is extremely powerful, but it is extremely difficult to enter. It often takes several hundred years of concentrated comprehension to have a chance, and the same is true for subsequent practice. Descendants of the family should be cautious when cultivating it.)]
This mystic technique had extremely high requirements, and it required reaching the middle stage of spatial law comprehension before attempting it. Even the family's founding ancestor, who left the note, stated that this mystic technique was extremely powerful, indicating its strength.
However, both entering the technique and improving proficiency afterward were extremely difficult, with only a slim chance of comprehending it after several hundred years. This made Song Chi hesitant.
Although he had enough confidence in his Twin Pupils, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to enter the technique within less than two years.
Based on this, Song Chi turned to the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele.
The first thing he saw was, of course, the already mastered Dragon Whale Technique, followed by the Black Core Pulse mystic technique, which required only 0.1% law comprehension. This technique required the Light Law, which he couldn't cultivate before, but now there were no more restrictions.
However, Song Chi didn't linger and continued to look down.
[Mystic Technique - Celestial Whale Dive: Spatial Law comprehension must be at least 10% to cultivate.]
[Mystic Technique - Ethereal Body: Spatial Law comprehension must be at least 40% to cultivate.]
After reviewing, Song Chi found that out of the 15 mystic techniques on the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele, he could still only clearly understand 7 of them with his current comprehension of two laws. Among them, he was most interested in only three: Black Core Pulse, Celestial Whale Dive, and Ethereal Body.
Black Core Pulse was somewhat similar to Aurora Stab, but it was more suitable for Song Chi.
Celestial Whale Dive was a large-scale group attack.
As for Ethereal Body, it was a technique that used spatial law to condense a spatial clone. The clone shared the same thoughts as the original body and had the same spatial law comprehension.
In addition, Song Chi also looked at the Spatial Law Stele on the side, which had a very good mystic technique called Void Splitting Golden Net. It was a technique that used spatial law to condense a law net, which had both binding and cutting effects. The law net itself also carried strong cutting power, making it equally damaging.
After much consideration, he finally decided to cultivate the Ethereal Body mystic technique first.
This technique might not have much attack enhancement, but it had a characteristic that Song Chi valued highly.
Shared Thoughts
Song Chi didn't know how long the upcoming great expansion war would last, but he knew it would definitely not be less than several decades, and even a century wouldn't be surprising.
Being a comprehensive war between two ordinary advanced civilizations, it was unlikely to end in just ten or twenty years. Such a long time meant he couldn't always have suitable opportunities to enter the Multiverse Marketplace. Even with the Skyward Mind System, it was still just an artificial intelligence, different from a real person. If an emergency occurred, Song Chi couldn't truly enter the marketplace without any worries, nor could he hand over complete control of the warship to the AI.
Therefore, this Ethereal Body technique...
The power of the Mystic Technique was about to be revealed.
If one could master this Mystic Technique, in the future, before entering the Ruin Market, they would only need to condense an Ethereal Body to remain on the warship. This way, not only could they focus on managing the market, but they would also be able to keep an eye on the situation outside the Celestial Ruin Heaven. At critical moments, the Ethereal Body could even issue certain commands to the Skyward Mind System, making it the perfect solution.
As for the Law Avatar he had previously condensed casually, that was only possible because Song Chi was inside the Ruin Market, possessing the power of a Sovereign. Moreover, that Avatar couldn't leave the Ruin Market, so it couldn't be compared to the Ethereal Body Technique.
After making up his mind, Song Chi sat down in front of the Dragon Whale Mystic Technique Transmission Stele and began to concentrate on comprehending the "Ethereal Body" technique.
Deep within his eyes, the shadows of his dual pupils flickered, indicating that Song Chi was fully activating the analytical ability of his dual pupils.
His thoughts were simple—in addition to the Ethereal Body, he wanted to master another Mystic Technique. The combat power boost provided by the Ethereal Body was limited, and he wanted to master it as soon as possible. After that, he would see if he could use the remaining time to comprehend the "Black Core Pulse."
This Light Attribute Mystic Technique was the easiest to comprehend among all the Mystic Techniques.
...
Outside, on the Dragon Backbone Continent.
As Song Chi devoted himself to practicing the Mystic Technique, the atmosphere on the entire Dragon Backbone Continent had somehow become different from the past, though no one knew when it had started.
Dragon Backbone Continent, Dragon Backbone Volcano.
Deep underground, thousands of miles beneath the volcano's crater, several figures gathered.
If Song Chi were here, he would surely recognize that the six figures standing there were all Elder Ancestors of the family.
Song Wujiang
Song Shiyuan
Song Xingru
Song Xuan Cang
...
Even the First Direct Bloodline Elder who had just advanced to Battleship rank not long ago was present.
They all stared at the dream-like, mysterious light orb in front of them, and the first ancestor, Song Wujiang, who stood at the forefront, said, "The time has come, Shiyuan, prepare!"
After he finished speaking, Song Shiyuan, who stood behind him on the right, holding a similarly mysterious light orb in his hand, nodded slightly.
He waved his hand, and the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship was summoned. The engine of this Ultimate Battleship roared, and the ship slowly rose into the air, eventually hovering steadily above the giant, mysterious light orb.
Seeing this, Song Wujiang turned to Song Xuan Cang and the First Direct Bloodline Elder behind him and said, "Go, with the last portion of the Tier 5 Peak Floating Continent's core, which accounts for sixty percent of the Floating Continent Core Essence, the Dragon Backbone Continent will surely advance to Tier 6. This is a great opportunity for both of you to advance your warships and Guidance Techniques to Tier 5."
Hearing his instructions, Song Xuan Cang and the other Elder bowed and then summoned their warships, leaving the underground space.
If the Dragon Backbone Continent were to advance to Tier 6, it would undoubtedly trigger an energy tide that would affect the entire continent. All the living beings on the Floating Continent would benefit from this opportunity.
Of course, the most critical area of this energy tide was naturally the Dragon Backbone Continent Floating Continent Core Essence beneath their feet. However, this place needed to be reserved for the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship. Whether the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship could successfully advance to a Fearless Ship would determine the Song Clan's prosperity for the next thousand years, and it couldn't be disturbed by anyone.
After Song Xuan Cang and the other Elder left, Song Wujiang continued to mutter to himself, "It's a pity that the little guy from the Tenth Direct Bloodline probably has a high-quality Beast Clan Mystic Realm behind him, which most likely contains a Tier 6 Class Beast. If the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship could kill a few more Tier 6 Creatures, its chances of advancement would undoubtedly increase significantly."
"But that little guy seems to have been forced to sign a High-Rank Confidential Agreement. It's too dangerous for him to hunt Tier 6 Beasts on his own, even with a few Tier 6 Enslaved Beasts. Sigh..."
Hearing Song Wujiang's muttering, Song Xingru, who was behind him, said, "Ancestor, there's no other way. However, I'm quite optimistic about Shiyuan. With the year you personally took him to hunt high-ranked Exotics 'over there,' plus a drop of Demi-Sixth Rank Demon Blood, a drop of Tier 6 Cosmic Beast Essence Blood, a Special Advancement Resource Formula, and this Floating Continent's advancement tide, the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship's chances of advancement are already quite high. I believe this promotion will be successful."
"Let's hope so!"
After a brief exchange, a series of beeps came from the Quantum Communication Bracelet in Song Wujiang's hand, indicating that Song Xuan Cang and the others had completed their preparations.
At this point, everyone's gaze turned to Song Shiyuan, who stood to the side. The meaning was clear.
As the Song Clan's only Ultimate Battleship Captain, Song Shiyuan became calmer as the moment approached.
He took a firm step forward and, when he reached the vicinity of the Dragon Backbone Continent Floating Continent Core Essence, threw out the smaller light orb containing the Floating Continent Core Essence in his hand. Soon after, it was captured by the Dragon Backbone Continent Floating Continent Core Essence, and a new round of fusion and assimilation began.
The reason for his calmness was not only the various trials he had experienced since awakening his fire seed nearly three thousand years ago but also because the high-level components on the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship had all been safely unloaded, minimizing potential losses even if this promotion attempt failed.
If the family gained significant benefits from the Great Expansion War, he might even have a second chance to cultivate another Battleship.
After all, he was only three thousand years old, and with the longevity artifacts he had used in the past, he still had over 1,200 years of life ahead of him, which was enough for him to make a second attempt at advancing to a Fearless Ship.
Of course, the most crucial factor was his confidence in the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship.
Having reached the Ultimate Battleship rank hundreds of years ago, he had made extensive preparations during that time. Additionally, the unexpected drop of Demi-Sixth Rank Demon Blood and the energy tide from the Dragon Backbone Continent's advancement further bolstered his confidence, which was now at an all-time high.
In front of them, as the Dragon Backbone Continent Floating Continent Core Essence gradually devoured the smaller Floating Continent Core Essence, the light emitted from the light orb became increasingly bright.
At the same time, on the Dragon Backbone Continent, storms caused by the energy tide were sweeping across the entire continent indiscriminately.
If someone were in the starry sky outside the Dragon Backbone Continent at this moment, they would surely notice that the continent had become like a giant magnet, continuously attracting asteroids, Floating Continent fragments, and other objects from its surroundings.
As these asteroids and Floating Continent fragments merged with the continent, the Dragon Backbone Continent's area visibly expanded.
The Song Clan had nearly three thousand years of experience with Floating Continent advancements.
Before deciding to advance the Dragon Backbone Continent, they had already spent several decades gathering a large number of asteroids and from the Exoplanetary Domain, ensuring that this advancement would proceed smoothly without any obstacles. The area of the Floating Continent rapidly expanded.
