Chapter 484: Unexpected Changes and the Golden [Star River Vow]
Chapter 484: Unexpected Changes and the Golden [Star River Vow]
"How could this be? Since the end of the Expansion War, most of the high-rank resource points have been seized, and the people of the Immortal Qin Pillar Ying Clan have long since departed. Without the Immortal Qin Surveillance Agency, who could have detected the matters in our star region so quickly?"
After a brief moment of shock, the same doubt surfaced in the minds of the few people from the Song family.
Although Song Chi and Song Wujiang immediately noticed the massive object outside the spatial rift, it was enveloped in an extremely strong Shadow Energy shield, making it impossible to see its exact form.
In the Magnetic wave communication chat, the three Song family members exchanged glances, and in the next second, they all nodded in unison.
Swoosh—
The [Steadfast Dragon Soar]’s hatch opened, and the [Three-Eye Royal Sovereign Flagship] that had made a fleeting appearance in the Stormwind Floating Land rushed out of the ship’s cabin.
As it fully emerged from the [Steadfast Dragon Soar], the [Three-Eye Royal Sovereign Flagship] began to rapidly expand.
A kilometer;
Ten thousand meters;
...
In an instant, it had restored to its full glory, over ten thousand kilometers long.
Although they were well aware of the rule that "battleships and above are not allowed to engage in any form of internal consumption," and the Evil Spider Star Zone had been incorporated into the Flame Human Civilization's territory decades ago, they still had to be cautious.
With the [Three-Eye Royal Sovereign Flagship] summoned out and the [Market Projection Token] in Song Chi’s hand, the four Song family members felt a significant boost in confidence.
As the Song family members braced themselves, the unknown starship above had already passed through the spatial rift, revealing its tens of thousands of kilometers long hull to the four Song family members.
The difference was that this time it did not hide its identity. Through the energy shield on the ship’s hull, Song Chi and the others saw the familiar "Morningstar" emblem on its sinister armor.
“Rosetta, it’s you!”
Song Wujiang’s voice echoed from the ship.
Meanwhile, the Song family members had a good idea of where the problem originated. It was likely that when they reported to Song Lihai through the Flame Network, the Flame administration of the Morningstar Kingdom intercepted the message.
Everyone was frustrated by this.
The Flame Network worked this way. Those with higher authority had oversight over the regions they managed. If not, each clan would not fully develop their own communicators.
Moreover, it was not the fault of those below for reporting, considering the urgency. If not, it would have taken much longer for Song Li Hai to arrive, and the [Spirit Beast MysticRealm] would have been plundered by the [Goldsplitter Sky Spider] by then.
For the Song family’s displayed hostility, RosettaMorningstar in the [Morningstar Traverse] did not respond, only showing a hint of caution when looking at the [Three-Eye Royal Sovereign Flagship] nearby, which was over a dozen times larger than the [Morningstar Traverse].
Though Flame warships were individually powerful, Sovereign flagships from space dominant civilizations were not ordinary units. RosettaMorning star had only recently ascended to starship captain, and his ship’s components were far from those of veteran starship captains. If he were to engage the [Three-Eye Royal Sovereign Flagship], the outcome was uncertain.
Of course, this was just a comparison, as the rules set by the four super empires in the Flame Human Civilization territory would prevent any real confrontation.
RosettaMorning star’s sharp gaze turned to the Song family ships below.
After establishing encrypted communication, his indifferent voice said:
“Song Wujiang, I mean no harm, but a [Time Boundary Tree], a super-class resource, can’t be reliably secured by your Song family alone.”
To prove his sincerity, the [Morningstar Traverse] opened its hatch, and over hundred of the three-Eye of the four three over beings of three to four, four stages, and three or four stages [ of three or four [ four stages of [ Goldsplitter Sky spider corpses were tossed out.
Below, the Song family ships.
Hearing the [Time Boundary Tree] mentioned, Song Chi, Song Wujiang, and Song Shiyuan’s hearts sank to the bottom.
Though they had guessed this from the start, hearing it confirmed made it hard to accept.
This was the [Time Boundary Tree], a super class mystic realm resource. Securing a Fourth Rank [TimeBoundary Tree] alone could sustain a Fifth Rank Clan’s legacy. A Sixth Rank [Time Boundary Tree] could bolster an immortal clan’s foundation, reducing the risk of lineage interruption.
However, seeing the Goldsplitter sky spider corpses, the Song family exchanged looks, understanding the situation.
Clearly, these were the escapedGoldsplitter sky spiders, which exposed the [Time boundary tree].
(End)
The main culprit behind this incident, but it was also their responsibility to handle the situation better. After all, the sheer number of Goldsplitter Sky Spiders made it inevitable that some would slip through the net.
They should actually be grateful for Rosetta Morningstar's actions. His thorough investigation and sealing of the Time Boundary Tree-related information had effectively prevented any further leaks.
After a moment of contemplation, Song Wujiang spoke up, "Your Majesty, you're suggesting that our two families join forces to conceal all information about this Mystic Realm and then divide the Time Boundary Trees equally between us, am I right?"
Song Wujiang's words were well-chosen and quick-witted. Knowing that the situation was essentially settled, there was no point in dwelling on what could have been. The more important task at hand was to secure the best possible outcome for the Song family, such as an equal division of resources.
After all, in terms of strength and status, the Song family was at a clear disadvantage. The best they could hope for was an equal share of the resources.
However, Rosetta was an ancient and cunning captain of a fearless ship who had lived for over eight thousand years. He was no less shrewd than anyone else.
"Equal division? Song Wujiang, do you think that's fair given the disparity in our families' strengths?"
He paused for a moment before continuing, "Sixty-four percent for my Morningstar family, and thirty-six percent for your Song family!"
Upon hearing this, not only Song Chi but also the other Song family members present felt an overwhelming sense of frustration.
Song Wujiang's voice turned cold, "Your Majesty Rosetta, this Mystic Realm was discovered by my Song family. If fifty-fifty is not acceptable, then we'll expose the whole matter, and neither of our families will get anything!"
In the control room of the Morningstar Traverse, Rosetta Morningstar's gaze was deep and unwavering.
"Don't bother with these childish threats. Do you think the Song family can afford it?"
Seeing that his threat didn't work, Song Wujiang narrowed his eyes, "It seems like Your Majesty Rosetta is determined to have a showdown with my Song family in this Evil Spider Star Zone. I wonder who the Flame Ancestral Shrine will blame afterward, your Star Destroyer or my family's flagship?"
His words were filled with determination, and Song Chi could sense the unwavering resolve of his ancestor.
Song Chi could tell that Rosetta Morningstar understood this as well.
However, Rosetta Morningstar didn't notice that as Song Wujiang firmly negotiated, he subtly signaled to Song Chi through the encrypted group chat.
Song Chi immediately understood the meaning behind this gesture.
Just then, a faint spatial vibration rippled through the interior of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, which had been completely isolated from the outside world. Song Chi quietly disappeared without a trace.
A moment later, his figure reappeared, but he only lingered for an instant, leaving behind his ethereal body before vanishing again.
In the Pantheonic Marketplace's Walk Room, Song Chi took out two Market Projection Tokens from his body and handed them to Song Hao, whom he had summoned.
"The captain of the Morningstar family's Star Destroyer has already appeared. You don't have much time left. Explore with all your might. If you find a white jade tree, whether it's a thousand meters or even farther, don't hesitate to use these Market Projection Tokens!"
"Understood, Uncle Song Chi!"
After receiving Song Chi's instructions, Song Hao immediately returned to the Mystic Realm.
At the same time, the distribution of resources between the two parties had been decided. Seeing Song Wujiang's genuine intention to take action, Rosetta Morningstar agreed to the fifty-fifty split.
Once the distribution was settled, the cabin door of the Morningstar Traverse opened, and three thousand Morningstar family captains of the second and third ranks were pulled out.
These Morningstar family captains had their shadow energy sealed and would need to wait a day before regaining their abilities.
Seeing this, Song Wujiang and Song Shiyuan felt a slight relief, knowing that Song Chi still had a day to act.
Both of them had the same thought.
Fifty-fifty?
We'll have to make sure the Song family gets the first pick.
Just as they were thinking this, Rosetta Morningstar's voice echoed in the group chat again.
"Song Wujiang, regarding the Time Boundary Trees and Time Boundary Fruits, it's not enough to just eliminate all the Goldsplitter Sky Spiders. I have a golden-quality contract component that can bind five thousand people with a single contract. Once our clansmen are all out, we should have them all sign confidentiality agreements for the best security!"
He then sent an attribute chart to the group chat.
Star River Vow lv70
Quality: Golden
Attribute: Star River Vow
Attribute 2: Starlight Oath
Attribute 3: Fivefold Increase in Single Contract Capacity
...
"Agreed!"
After examining the attribute chart, Song Wujiang didn't hesitate. He had originally planned to have his clan members sign silver confidentiality agreements, but now that Rosetta Morningstar was offering a golden contract component to further ensure secrecy, he had no reason to object.
...
Inside the Mystic Realm, under Song Hao's brainwave imprint control, the two Shadow Tribe War Automatons each led dozens of other automatons and charged into two different underground space entrances, further intensifying the chaos in the underground space.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, he activated a blue long-range deployment component on the warship, launching two Ruins Market Projection Tokens towards the coordinates where the Shadow Tribe War Automatons were located in the underground space.
In the underground space, as a spatial vibration swept by, two Ruins Market Projection Tokens appeared out of thin air beside the Shadow Tribe War Automatons.
Under the control of Song Hao's brainwave imprint, the War Automatons immediately grasped two golden tokens.
Even though they acted at the fastest speed, the fleeting spatial vibration and golden glow still alerted the nearby Triceratropic Being.
Song Hao, however, paid no heed to this and continued to control the War Automatons, making them sprint all the way.
After more than ten minutes, he noted the coordinates of the War Automatons' current location and then voluntarily canceled the summoning remotely.
The duration of the Brainwave Remote Control System had ended, and he could only wait for the second exploration.
As for the two Ruins Market Projection Tokens, they had already been sent back to the Market Projection Room by the War Automatons and then returned to his hands through Song Chi.
Now, all he needed to do was wait for the cooling of the Brainwave Remote Control System component to complete.
During the waiting process, Song Hao and Song White Robe established contact through a communication component. The communication range of the component was also severely restricted within the Mystic Realm, and it was indeed lucky that the two were able to successfully connect.
"Did you also see a Jade Tree?"
During their conversation, Song Hao learned that Song White Robe had also seen a Jade Tree.
"White Robe, how tall was the Jade Tree you saw? Were there Jade Fruits hanging on the tree?"
Song White Robe, who was also unfamiliar with the Time Boundary Tree, looked at Song Hao in the communication projection with some surprise, but still replied:
"I didn't pay much attention, but it's definitely over a kilometer..."
"A kilometer? White Robe, you've done a great job!"
Upon hearing the word 'kilometer', before Song White Robe could finish speaking, Song Hao's face already showed an uncontrollable joy.
However, at this moment, Song White Robe added another sentence.
"But I didn't see any of the Jade Fruits you mentioned."
Song Hao's smile froze.
"No Jade Fruits? Wait a moment."
...
In the Market Walk Room, upon hearing Song Hao's words, Song Chi's eyebrows furrowed.
"No fruits? Could it be the Sixth Rank Time Boundary Tree that was visited early by the Goldsplitter Sky Spider?"
Muttering to himself, Song Chi quickly left the Walk Room and returned to the outside warship.
When he came back, he was holding an extremely high-quality red-grade Immortal Realm Spirit Soil and a bottle of Clearwater Spirit Spring Water.
"Take these two things with you. Later, when you and White Robe find the kilometer-tall Jade Tree, carefully sprinkle this spirit soil and spirit water at its roots, and then try to transplant the Jade Tree and bring it into the Market."
After hearing Song Chi's words, Song Hao's eyes lit up, clearly not expecting that such an operation was possible.
However, due to his absolute trust in Song Chi, Song Hao showed no objections and quickly returned to the Mystic Realm.
"White Robe, it's ready. Take me directly to the kilometer-tall Jade Tree!"
Song White Robe also had doubts in his heart, as he had never understood the value and information about the Time Boundary Tree from the beginning to the end.
But he didn't ask further, and the two cruisers quickly converged, then headed together towards the location of the kilometer-tall Jade Tree.
Two hours later, the two ships finally arrived at their destination after rushing.
"It's indeed a kilometer-tall Jade Tree. We've truly accomplished something great. Quick, let's go!"
The two ships slowly approached the Jade Tree, and Song White Robe finally asked the question that had been on his mind.
"Big Brother, do you know what this Jade Tree is?"
"I don't know. Uncle Song Chi said that this matter is of great importance, so it's better if we don't know for now."
"Why does Uncle Song Chi know about the existence of this Jade Tree? Did you go out earlier?"
Due to the signed confidentiality agreement, Song Hao naturally couldn't answer, and he shook his head:
"Don't ask about these things. I've signed a confidentiality agreement with Uncle Song Chi, and you'll know when the time is right. For now, let's hurry up with the transplant. The ancestor from the Morningstar Clan is also here, and we don't have much time left!"
...
"What's going on? This thing can't be pulled out, and even dozens of War Automatons and several enslaved Third Rank Meteorite Clan members working together can't do it!"
In the Daybreak's control room, Song White Robe's eyebrows were tightly knit.
On the communication projection, Song Hao, who had disappeared for a while, reappeared, and he also took out a token that glowed with golden light.
