Chapter 532: Cosmic Secret Realm and the Golden Neutron Star Core Armor
Chapter 532: Cosmic Secret Realm and the Golden Neutron Star Core Armor
The tracking of the Heavenly Destiny South Pointing Plate went surprisingly smoothly.
Based on the coordinates provided by the star map, Song Chi easily located the other half of the Dark Saber Secret Art Heritage Tablet on the northern shore of the Shattered Sea, approximately several million kilometers away from Dragon Shark City.
After a brief discussion at the Dragon Shark City Governor's Mansion, an Elder from the Vein Clan, a Fourth-Rank Peak member, was chosen to accompany Song Chi's spirit body to search for the other half of the heritage tablet.
It wasn't that Song Chi was unwilling, but he had received a message from the Shining Star Tower about a secret realm discovered by the North Star Pavilion's deputy pavilion master.
Having learned this, Song Chi decided not to linger in Dragon Abyss City and quickly returned to the Dragon Spine Continent after setting up a shop in the city for his Fifth-Rank Void Escape Orb.
As for the spatial anchor point, Song Chi thought about it and decided not to set it up in Dragon Shark City.
Currently, there were only four spatial anchor points in the Fifth-Rank Heaven's Bazaar, including the Dragon Spine Continent, Silver Gleam Plain, Vein Dragon Abyss City, and the Radiant City. There was no more space available.
...
At the Shining Star Tower, in the Star Tower Hall.
"Sister Jade Crystal!"
Upon logging in through projection, Song Chi encountered Cui Yulong, who was also in the Star Tower.
"Thunder Awaken!"
Cui Yulong smiled gracefully, and previously, at her invitation, Song Chi had faced Changsun Wu, a direct descendant of another branch of the Changsun family, to protect her nephew. As a result, she had a very good impression of Song Chi.
"What, are you also interested in taking on this task?"
Song Chi shook his head in response to this question.
"It hasn't been confirmed yet, but does Sister Jade Crystal have any suggestions?"
As the two talked, Song Chi quickly arrived at the task release window and saw the updated content in the top task information.
【Task Summary: A deputy pavilion master from the North Star Pavilion discovered a special secret realm while exploring a foreign star domain. After initial exploration, it was confirmed that this secret realm is a cosmic secret realm, and it contains a considerable number of high-level secret realm creatures, making it highly dangerous.】
"Cosmic secret realm? Indigenous secret realm creatures?"
Upon seeing these two points, Song Chi couldn't help but frown.
He had some understanding of cosmic secret realms, and even the lowest-level cosmic secret realms had a lower limit of Seventh Rank. Since indigenous secret realm creatures had been discovered within, it meant there was a high probability of the presence of Seventh-Rank Sovereign-level beings.
With this thought, Song Chi's initial eagerness instantly dissipated.
Seeing the rich expression on his face, a light laugh came from his side.
"What, no longer interested?"
Song Chi felt a bit embarrassed, but considering Sister Jade Crystal's status as an old member of the Shining Star Tower, he tentatively asked, "Sister Jade Crystal, do you have any more specific information?"
"How are Uncle Corpse Dog and the others doing? What about the strength of the indigenous creatures in that secret realm?"
Cui Yulong's smile faded, and she didn't hide anything.
"This secret realm should be the lowest-level cosmic secret realm. Uncle Corpse Dog's side had briefly contacted the Radiant City through a golden component and established a temporary connection with the Radiant City. According to Uncle Corpse Dog, the cosmic secret realm is vast, spanning over ten thousand light-years. The indigenous creatures within call it the Blood Battle World, and Uncle Corpse Dog has encountered Seventh-Rank Peak-level Blood Battle Clan Sovereigns."
After listening to Cui Yulong's words, Song Chi narrowed his eyes.
Just from the glimpse that Uncle Corpse Dog had seen, the danger within the secret realm was evident, making Song Chi even more hesitant.
"Are there any messages about secret realm special resources?"
"Not yet..."
Hearing this, Song Chi made a decision in his heart.
"Thank you, Sister Jade Crystal!"
For now, these were still considered confidential messages known only to Uncle Corpse Dog's side and had not been spread in the Shining Star Tower member's star order group. The fact that she could directly tell him this was a form of trust.
Cui Yulong shook her head, indicating that there was no need for thanks.
"There's no need for thanks, but this matter hasn't been made public yet, so please don't disclose it."
Song Chi understood Cui Yulong's meaning. Based on the recent messages in the star order group, he knew that when this secret realm was discovered, it wasn't just the deputy pavilion master from the North Star Pavilion. There were also members from the Xianqin Divine Dynasty and the Holy Federation, and they were exploring the secret realm together. Some messages were not convenient to announce in the group.
Although the members of the Shining Star Tower had a good relationship, there were over thirty members from various factions of the Flame Relay Network Civilization. It was inevitable that there would be direct members from the other two factions.
Song Chi responded and quickly exited the Star Tower.
After sorting out the information revealed by Cui Yulong, he decided to wait a little longer.
"The danger level is unknown, and the resources produced by the Mystic Realm are also unclear. Although the Bazaar Projection Token is enough to ensure safety, the cost of a silver-colored wonder every time is hard to say if it's worth it. It still depends on the value of the resources produced by the Mystic Realm..."
Shaking his head, Song Chi no longer dwelled on it and wasn't planning to stay in the Dragon Spine Continent for long. He directly returned to the City of Holy Light to continue his acquisition mission.
...
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another fifteen years went by.
During this time, Song Chi had officially passed his three hundredth birthday.
In his past life, this age had surpassed the duration of most dynasties.
In Dragon Abyss City, the warship summoning room.
The 14,000-meter-long Heaven Ruin Skydome stood silently, and within the warship, Song Chi's figure suddenly disappeared.
At the center of the Cultivation Secret Realm, the Clearwater Spirit Spring.
Looking at the batch of water clams being nurtured in the not-so-large spirit spring, Song Chi's eyes were filled with anticipation.
This batch of clams, with sufficient years of cultivation, numbered quite a few. It was just unknown how many high-year pearls they would produce.
A vast amount of Shadow Energy overflowed from his body, and with the blessing of the Cultivation Secret Realm itself, this energy directly surged to the sixth-stage level.
At the same time, under the influence of this sixth-stage Shadow Energy, the water clams at the bottom of the Clearwater Spirit Spring were lifted into the air and then burst out of the water, floating in the air above the secret realm.
Immediately, Song Chi's mind split into fifty, controlling fifty Shadow Energy hammers formed by the Shadow Energy, and began to rapidly strike all the water clams.
In less than two minutes, the counting work was completed.
One 15,000-year Deep Sea Pearl
Three 10,000-year Deep Sea Pearls
Fifteen 8,000-year Deep Sea Pearls
Sixty 5,000-year Deep Sea Pearls
"Not bad!"
Looking at the four largest pearls, Song Chi was in a good mood.
His Guidance Technique had already reached the peak of level 57. With these four pearls of over 10,000 years, he was confident in breaking through to level 58.
Half a month later, with three 10,000-year pearls and a super-grade body-forging elixir, Song Chi successfully raised his Guidance Technique to level 58.
Additionally, the 15,000-year pearl was also used, allowing him to make some progress at level 58 and reducing the time needed to break through to level 59.
Furthermore, during these fifteen years, Song Chi further comprehended the laws, and with various blessings, the lowest comprehension rate of the Law of Time had reached 41.2%.
This speed was indeed frighteningly fast, but it was achieved with the multiple blessings of the Fake Meditation Cushion, the Starry Throne, the Mystic Realm Bazaar, and Heavy Pupil, plus the fact that the comprehension rate of the Law of Time wasn't particularly high. This speed was understandable.
Ten years ago, with the guidance of the Empty Spirit, the Vein Clan successfully retrieved the other half of the Dark Saber Secret Art Heritage Tablet, making the Dark Saber Secret Art Heritage Tablet complete.
This heritage tablet did not disappoint the Song Clan either. Although the complete Dark Saber Secret Art Heritage Tablet didn't reach the level of the Dragon Whale Secret Art Heritage Tablet and the Nameless Secret Art Heritage Tablet, the number of secret arts recorded on it was as many as eight, surpassing all the other secret art heritage tablets in the Song Clan's possession.
With Song Chi's current spatial law comprehension, which was close to completion, he could only decipher five of them.
Excluding the Flying Sword Form and the Demon Sword Chant, the other three were:
1. The Shadow Sword Escape, which required a 10% law comprehension rate to comprehend.
2. The Sword Light Division, which required a 30% law comprehension rate.
3. The Six Directions Sword Technique, which required a 50% law comprehension rate.
Among them, the Shadow Sword Escape was a secret art of evasion, the Sword Light Division was a group attack secret art, and the Six Directions Sword Technique was a defensive secret art that summoned six heavy sword shadows to protect oneself.
To be honest, Song Chi was quite envious of these five secret arts. After all, when combined with the cutting, shielding, and other attributes of the spatial law, they were extremely powerful, whether used for offense or defense.
However, Song Chi did not attempt to comprehend any of them. The reason was simple: he already had enough secret arts under his command, and he understood the principle of not biting off more than he could chew.
...
Outside, in the City of Holy Light.
"Master, we have successfully acquired a complete Neutron Star Remnant."
Upon receiving the message from the fifth-stage Void Demon, Song Chi quickly left the Mystic Realm Bazaar and returned to the City of Holy Light. After obtaining the Neutron Star Remnant, he went back to the Mystic Realm Bazaar.
In the free market area, inside the warship's command room.
Holding tightly onto the Neutron Star Remnant in his hand, Song Chi was filled with excitement.
"The last one is finally in my hands!"
As early as three years ago, he had obtained it from the Divine Realm Player Trading Space.
Obtaining the ninth piece of the Neutron Star Remnant, this final piece was required for the evolution of the Neutron Star Core Armor into the golden quality.
With great anticipation, he presented the Neutron Star Remnant to the trembling Neutron Star Core Armor.
Instantly, silver light shone.
Before long, the dazzling silver light gradually transformed into a dazzling golden glow.
Focusing his vision, a brand-new attribute panel soon appeared.
Neutron Star Core Armor lv70
Quality: Golden
Attribute: Neutron Star Fission
Attribute 2: Neutron Core Pulse
Attribute 3: Armor Defense increased by an additional 350%
Attribute 4: Neutron Link
Attribute 5: High-Energy Particle Storm
Consumption: 3400/s (Shadow Energy Points)
Defense: 101.2 billion
No charging or buffering required.
...
{Neutron Star Fission: Consumes 500,000 Shadow Energy Points, temporarily transforming the battleship into a miniature neutron star form, defending against external attacks, lasting 10 minutes, with a cooldown of 6 hours.)
{Neutron Core Pulse: The armor layer transformed by the neutron star core contains endless pulse energy. When the battleship takes damage, this infinite pulse energy wave will continuously repair the ship's armor and energy shield. Every 5s, 10% of the armor layer is restored, and every 10s, 10% of the ship's energy shield is recovered.)
{Neutron Link: Consumes 400,000 Shadow Energy Points to link 50 battleships within a 100 million km range. Linked battleships will have their armor defense increased by 100%, and both energy shield defense and shield values increased by 100% for 12 hours, with a cooldown of 240 hours.}
{High-Energy Particle Storm: Consumes 1,000,000 Shadow Energy Points. The ship's armor releases a violent high-energy particle stream, forming a high-energy particle storm domain within a million km radius, annihilating all physical objects. It lasts for 30 minutes with a fixed cooldown of 10 years.}
After reading the attributes of the Neutron Star Core Armor, now evolved into the Golden Holy Domain quality, Song Chi's mind could only form two words.
"Amazing!"
After evolving into the Golden Holy Domain quality, its defense, attributes, and effects had all received an extremely exaggerated boost.
Not to mention the explosive increase in its self-repair capabilities for the ship's energy shield and armor, in the future, not even the silver super main cannon would pose a threat to the energy shield of the Heaven Ruin Skydome. Even a golden super main cannon, unless enhanced to the seventh-rank limit, would be unable to cause any harm.
The most exaggerated attribute was the newly appeared "High-Energy Particle Storm," which could be considered a god-level group attack attribute. The high-energy particle storm domain covering a million kilometers; if it could suddenly be unleashed amidst enemy forces, the battle results would be unimaginable.
Moreover, Song Chi thought of another use for it. Imagine if, during a warship promotion task, the efficiency of accumulating success rates using this attribute would be terrifying.
However, it did have a drawback; first, it didn't differentiate between friend and foe. Caution was necessary when activating it, or else it might accidentally harm friendly units.
Secondly, there was the 10-year cooldown period.
But in Song Chi's opinion, this was acceptable. With the effects of the Poshuo Meditation Seal and Time Chess components, the cooldown time would be directly reduced to just over a year, which was perfectly acceptable.
Song Chi withdrew his attention from the attribute panel of the Neutron Star Core Armor, and his eyes flickered.
It wasn't that he was marveling at the time it took for this component to evolve from silver to gold, even though it had taken nearly two centuries. For him, who now had a lifespan of four thousand years, this time was still acceptable.
What Song Chi was thinking at this moment was whether the Neutron Star Core Armor could continue to evolve.
The Golden Holy Domain quality was indeed impressive, but for someone whose goal was always the seventh rank, eighth rank, and even beyond, the Golden Holy Domain quality was clearly insufficient for the lifetime of the Heaven Ruin Skydome.
Only a Black Ultimate or even a Mythical Color quality ship armor would satisfy him.
"Forget it, I'll look into it later. If I get it, it's my luck; if not, it's my fate. Being able to evolve from the Red Epic quality to the Golden Holy Domain is already a huge blessing!"
Song Chi didn't dwell on this issue. He recalled the Heaven Ruin Skydome and headed towards the All-Attribute Training Room.
The All-Attribute Training Room had now reached lv59, greatly enhancing the cultivation of the Guidance Technique. Before finding the "Double the Effect Distance" attribute, he still preferred to improve his Guidance Technique.
