Chapter 470: Celestial Thunder Cannon - Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt
Chapter 470: Celestial Thunder Cannon - Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt
As he focused his gaze, the attribute panel appeared.
Artifact: Celestial Thunder Seal
Quality: Golden
Transmutable: {Celestial Thunder Cannon}
Note: An eighth-rank Thunder Seal once owned by the Celestial Thunder Sect of the Immortal Realm Continent, after tens of thousands of years, it has transformed into a golden artifact.
Song Chi quickly moved past the artifact's attribute panel and switched to the shipborne module's attribute panel.
Celestial Thunder Cannon lv0
Quality: Golden
Attribute: Celestial Extreme Solar Thunder
Attribute 2: True Armor Piercing
Attribute 3: Main Cannon Power increased by 140%
Attribute 4: Ten Thousand Seals Celestial Thunder Hell
Attribute 5: Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt
Consumption: 100/shot (Shadow Energy Points)
Attack: 180
Charge: 10s; Buffer: 20s
Upgrade Requirements: 40 strands of Floating Continent Origin (0th rank), 4000 Shadow Energy Points, 1kg of Thunder Stone
{Celestial Extreme Solar Thunder: Each attack of the main cannon contains extreme solar energy, with strong penetration and corrosion effects, dealing triple damage to Yin, Ming, and soul-based units.}
{True Armor Piercing: The Celestial Thunder Seal possesses the true armor-piercing attribute, unaffected by ordinary armor, scales, shields, and other defenses, slightly penetrating true defenses and true shields.}
{Ten Thousand Seals Celestial Thunder Hell: Consumes 100,000 Shadow Energy Points to gather ten thousand Celestial Thunder Seals, performing a cluster strike on a designated area, with a cooldown of 720 hours.}
{Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt: Consumes 200,000 Shadow Energy Points and a Lightning Attribute Law Crystal to temporarily enter the Planet Annihilation Cannon form, gathering the Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt to judge a designated unit with ninefold thunder punishment, with a cooldown of 20 years.}
Song Chi's eyes lit up; although it was just a main cannon, its attributes were indeed top-notch.
Not only did it have a minor top-quality attribute like True Armor Piercing, but it also had a cluster strike attack attribute.
The most crucial attribute, however, was the fifth one, "Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt," which was similar to the golden-quality Planet Annihilation Wrath, allowing it to temporarily transform into the Planet Annihilation Cannon form and unleash a ninefold thunder judgment on a designated target.
Song Chi was confident that even if the Heaven Ruin Skydome was only a Stag Hunt Ship, with this "Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt," a single shot at the sixth rank would be enough to cripple even a Dreadnought, possibly sinking it.
The challenge, however, was that the "Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt" couldn't be activated lightly. The 20-year cooldown was manageable, especially with the Bodhimanda Meditation Seal and Time Chess components, reducing it to just over two years.
The real issue was that each activation required a Lightning Attribute Law Crystal, and the lowest quality of these crystals was orange, with a value no less than a same-rank promotion fire source. More importantly, they were even rarer than promotion fire sources.
At this point, Song Chi remembered the Radiant Star Tower, where, if he remembered correctly, there were a few low-level Lightning Attribute Law Crystals in the Star Tower Shop.
Without hesitation, he returned to the Dragon Spine Continent and logged into the Radiant Star Tower using the Radiant Star Order.
Two low-level Lightning Attribute Law Crystals were quickly exchanged for a few hundred shop points, a negligible amount for Song Chi, who had accumulated over 20,000 shop points.
What caught his attention, however, was the only silver-quality Lightning Attribute Law Crystal.
Artifact: Lightning Attribute Law Crystal
Quality: Silver/Advanced Law Crystal
Quantity: 1
Exchange Cost: 5000 points
The exchange cost for this Lightning Attribute Law Crystal was a whopping 5000 points, which made Song Chi hesitate.
The points he had accumulated over the years were earned through the Expansion Wars, the Heavenly Marketplace, and various exchanges and trades, the result of decades of effort. Spending one-fifth of them was a significant decision.
The problem was that he didn't know the specific effects of the Celestial Thunder Cannon when using low-level, mid-level, and high-level Law Crystals. If the Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt was the same regardless of the quality of the Lightning Attribute Law Crystal used, there was no need to exchange for it.
However, he didn't dwell on this for long, remembering that the Star Tower Shop offered full refunds. He then spent 5000 shop points to acquire the Advanced Law Crystal.
After exchanging the Law Crystal, Song Chi spent another 100 shop points to obtain enough Thunder Stone resources, a scarce commodity in the Heavenly Marketplace, available only in the Star Tower Shop.
…
In the free-trade zone of the Heavenly Marketplace, within the Heaven Ruin Skydome, Song Chi once again activated the "Origin Seeker" trait, which had just finished its cooldown. The Soul Annihilation Eye Cannon, a red main cannon that had been enhanced to level 60, gradually descended and reverted to its initial level 0, along with all the resources spent on its previous enhancements.
After dropping to level 0, Song Chi replaced it without hesitation with the Celestial Thunder Cannon.
As the Heaven Ruin Skydome had not yet advanced to a battleship, it currently had only two main cannon slots. Thus, the Soul Annihilation Eye Cannon had to be uninstalled first.
After the replacement, the next step was naturally to enhance the Celestial Thunder Cannon, which was strengthened all the way to level 69 without any hesitation.
As the attributes significantly increased, Song Chi's gaze fell upon the "Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt" trait.
{Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt: Consumes 800,000 Shadow Energy Points and a low/medium/high-grade Lightning Attribute Law Crystal. Temporarily enter the Planet Annihilation Cannon form, possessing the full power of the same quality and level Planet Annihilation Cannon. Condenses the Ninefold Celestial Annihilation Thunderbolt to judge a designated target with nine layers of calamitous thunderbolts. Cooldown time: 20 years.}
Although the cooldown time remained unchanged, as the enhancement reached level 69, this trait clearly indicated that it could utilize three different levels of Lightning Attribute Law Crystals. As for the effect, even without testing, Song Chi could guess that it would vary in power.
Satisfied, Song Chi put away the items that were not artifacts and returned to the Immortal Realm Continent fragment.
By now, the value of this Floating Land fragment had been almost entirely plundered, except for the Beast Spirit Realm. However, there was one more thing left.
The Heaven Ruin Skydome descended from the sky and hovered quietly above the small mountain formed by the Mountain Cave Mansion.
Although this Mountain Cave Mansion was not an artifact, it was a special spatial creation crafted by the Lifetaking Immortal using a high-level Mystic Realm Origin fragment as its core, fused with a complete level of Space Law. It could even be used as a large portable storage item.
It could also be sent into a Nurturing Realm, allowing this low-level Primordial Mystic Realm to devour it, thereby enhancing the area and foundation of the Nurturing Realm.
Song Chi speculated that if the Nurturing Realm could integrate enough Mystic Realm Origin fragments, it might even be able to independently advance to the golden tier.
However, this was just his speculation, and its truth could not be confirmed for the time being.
Following the records in the Profound Ancient Array Records, Song Chi carefully transformed the Mountain Cave Mansion into a palm-sized green stone and absorbed it into the battleship.
He did not rush to place it into the Nurturing Realm but instead stored it in the Heavenly Marketplace.
After all, this Mountain Cave Mansion would not be enough to make the Nurturing Realm component directly advance to the golden tier, so there was no need to hurry. He would decide how to handle it later.
After this, he returned to the Beast Spirit Realm and transferred the spatial anchor point into the realm.
When the Heaven Ruin Skydome initiates the battleship promotion mission in the future, it will still rely on this Beast Spirit Realm to provide part of the promotion success rate, so this spatial anchor point cannot be retrieved for now, at least not in the short term.
…
In the Multiverse Marketplace's free-trade zone, the Heaven Ruin Skydome was docked quietly. Song Chi's entire being was immersed in the Nurturing Realm, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Success! Some of the deepwater clams in the Spirit Spring survived..."
Sensing that a small number of deepwater clams had survived in the Spirit Spring at the center of the realm, Song Chi was delighted.
Although the survival rate was very low, with only a few dozen out of thousands of clams surviving, it didn't matter.
Even with a low survival rate, it could be compensated for with quantity. The value of deepwater clams was not very high, and as long as a large number of them could be sent into the Spirit Spring, along with the assistance of the "Mystic Realm Accelerator" trait, the Nurturing Realm would soon be able to produce small batches of high-year deepwater clam pearls.
However, not every clam would survive for thousands of years, and even if they did, they might not produce high-year clam pearls. This meant that the output would not be too high in the short term.
Song Chi wasn't too concerned. His Guidance Art had already reached level 47, and with just one or two seven-to-eight-thousand-year-old clam pearls, he could push it to level 49. After that, he would strive for the fifth-tier Guidance Art, and there should be enough time to allow the deepwater clams to expand in number.
…
Three months later, Song Chi exited the Dragon Spine Mystic Realm again, and this time, he successfully comprehended the secret art of "Apocalyptic Star Arrival."
The original plan was to further comprehend the Death Star Annihilation Rapid Explosion, but after careful consideration, Song Chi decided to postpone it.
After a thorough calculation, he had already mastered seven secret techniques: Dragon Whale Form, Return to Void Slash, Radiant Star Arrival, Black Core Pulse, Ethereal Body, Void Shaman Great Seal, and Death Star Arrival. The mental effort required for this was not insignificant.
Moreover, the essence of secret techniques lies in their refinement rather than quantity. After much deliberation, Song Chi decided not to attempt to comprehend any other secret techniques before breaking through to the fifth tier.
Instead, he felt it was more crucial to focus on comprehending the two fundamental laws.
After decades of expansion wars, his understanding of the Space Law had only reached 45.56%, while his grasp of the Light Law, though slightly higher, was still at 30.05%, leaving him a considerable distance from the intermediate stage.
Song Chi retrieved the Bright Light Order 32 and logged into the Radiant Star Tower with his true body.
On the second floor of the tower was the Chaos Monument.
Song Chi, in his true body, took out the False Enlightenment Cushion from the Flame Ancestor Aperture and placed it in front of the Chaos Monument before sitting down. He then began his fifth attempt at comprehending the monument.
In the decades of expansion wars, he had also comprehended the Chaos Monument once, and this was his fifth attempt.
Counting this time, he had one more chance left to comprehend the Chaos Monument. Song Chi estimated that this would likely be his last attempt before reaching the fifth tier, and the final attempt would probably be after breaking through to the fifth tier.
With the combined boost of the Enlightenment Cushion and the Dual Pupil, Song Chi quickly entered a deep state of comprehension of the Chaos Monument.
His understanding of the Light and Space Laws continued to emerge in his mind, and his comprehension of the laws rapidly increased.
After an unknown amount of time, when he exited the state of comprehension, the improvement in his understanding of the laws was remarkable.
Space Law: 45.56% → 45.66%
Light Law: 30.05% → 30.28%
Compared to the previous comprehension of the Chaos Monument, this improvement was significantly higher, only slightly lower than the Law Resonance Phase.
Song Chi patted the False Enlightenment Cushion beneath him and silently praised its effectiveness. He then put it back into the Flame Ancestor Aperture.
The combination of the Enlightenment Cushion and the Dual Pupil was truly exceptional, and his future rate of comprehending the laws would undoubtedly surpass his previous pace.
It was indeed a remarkable item created by a Sovereign-tier existence.
As he marveled at its power, Song Chi soon left the Radiant Star Tower.
Back on the Dragon Spine Continent, inside the Celestial Ruins Skylord, Song Chi thoroughly digested the insights gained from comprehending the Chaos Monument. Eager to test his progress, he entered the Nurturing Realm.
It had been several months since he first released the deepwater clams into the Nurturing Realm, and with the thousands of times time acceleration within the realm, along with the Clearwater Spirit Spring's innate ability to accelerate the growth of water-attributed beings, the first batch of deepwater clams that survived had already lived for nearly ten thousand years.
After retrieving the first batch of over ten clams, he quickly left the realm.
The acceleration effect in the Nurturing Realm was still ongoing, making it unwise to stay there for too long.
Inside the Celestial Ruins Skylord, Song Chi held the 13 clams that had survived for over eight thousand years in his hand and shook his head.
The initial batch of over a thousand deepwater clams had more than sixty survivors, and with their offspring, the numbers were even higher.
However, as they faced the thousand, three thousand, and five thousand-year thresholds, over eighty to ninety percent of the clams were eliminated, leaving only these 13.
"I hope they will yield high-year pearls..."
After muttering to himself, Song Chi decisively opened all 13 clams at once.
"Not bad, there's one six-thousand-year pearl and one five-thousand-year pearl, along with two three-thousand-year pearls."
He took out the five-thousand-year pearl and mixed it with a top-tier body-strengthening potion, then headed to the Comprehensive Attribute Training Room in the Heavenly Marketplace. There, he began attempting to break through to Level 48 of the Guidance Art.
Half a month later, when he emerged, a faint smile graced his face, and shadow energy flowed erratically around his body.
Evidently, he had successfully advanced his Guidance Art to Level 48, now just a stone's throw away from the Tier 4 limit of Level 49.
However, to utilize the six-thousand-year pearl, he would have to wait for a while longer to allow his body to adapt.
