Chapter 547: The Star River Ship
Chapter 547: The Star River Ship
Similar to the Shining Star Tower, the Celestial Beacon Palace is also located on the Civilization Great Wall, or rather, the entire Celestial Beacon Palace and its seven towers are situated on the Civilization Great Wall, a Colored Mythical Grade artifact. However, each of the seven towers is located in a different star domain.
Song Chi and the others did not have the chance to leave the Pursue Star Chase Moon, but due to his window seat, Song Chi managed to catch a fleeting glimpse of the long-awaited Celestial Beacon Palace.
Unlike the Shining Star Tower, the Celestial Beacon Palace resembled an ancient hall, surrounded by dazzling starlight, as if the entire hall was transformed into a stellar temple.
Additionally, seven towering structures stood around this ancient hall, each of the seven subsidiary towers surrounding the stellar temple, adding a touch of mystery to the ancient hall.
But that was all he could see as the Pursue Star Chase Moon, a Planet Destroyer, sped through the spatial corridor and quickly entered the central hall, giving Song Chi only a brief glimpse.
After entering the hall, Song Chi felt that the Pursue Star Chase Moon had shrunk significantly; otherwise, a ship spanning over ten thousand kilometers would not appear so compact within the hall.
Before he could ponder further, the Pursue Star Chase Moon had already glided towards a platform on the right side of the hall, emitting intense starlight.
Witnessing this, Song Chi had a hunch.
"The Celestial Beacon Palace's built-in teleportation system?"
As this thought crossed his mind, a severe dizziness overwhelmed him.
What followed was a dizzying sensation that defied description.
When he regained his senses, the Pursue Star Chase Moon had appeared in a pitch-black starry sky. However, upon glancing sideways, Song Chi quickly spotted three colossal super warships, each captained by a legendary fleet admiral.
A million kilometers away, an Eighth Rank Flame Ship, the Star River Ship.
Regarding the Flame Ships that succeeded the Planet Destroyer, Song Chi only knew that the Eighth Rank was the Star River Ship. According to records, the captains of the Eighth Rank Star River Ships had lifespans exceeding an astonishing three hundred thousand years, rivaling the longevity of the current Flame Human Civilization. As for the Ninth Rank, there was no information in his family's database.
Of course, the ancestors most likely knew, but Song Chi had never asked. The Planet Destroyer was already a distant concept to him, let alone the Eighth or Ninth Rank.
As his gaze returned from the three distant Star River Ships, Song Chi's attention shifted back to the Celestial Beacon Palace.
He muttered to himself:
"Is this a fixed-point teleportation? In that case, the Celestial Beacon Palace is most likely a Colored Mythical Grade artifact in the Star Sea!"
Having been part of the Shining Star Tower for so many years, he believed he had some understanding of it. In his opinion, the quality of the Shining Star Tower alone was likely a Black Ultimate Artifact, and certainly not just a Golden one.
Based on this, he had also speculated about the quality of the Celestial Beacon Palace, which had seven subsidiary towers. However, until now, he couldn't confirm that the Celestial Beacon Palace was indeed a Colored Mythical Grade artifact.
Today's fixed-point teleportation and the intense backlash from the teleportation, even with his Fifth Rank Peak Guidance Technique, finally convinced him that the Celestial Beacon Palace was indeed a Colored Mythical Grade artifact.
However, he couldn't determine the specific grade, whether it was Lower, Upper, or Supreme.
As he pondered, the Pursue Star Chase Moon glided towards the three Star River Ships.
"Is the one in the middle the Star River Ship of the Celestial Beacon Palace?"
Song Chi whispered as he noticed the direction the Pursue Star Chase Moon was heading, but his words were overheard by White Eyebrow beside him.
Soon, a faint explanation reached Song Chi's ears.
"The one in the middle is the Celestial Beacon Palace of the Celestial Wolf Lord. The one on the right is the Ancient Pillar of the Immortal Qin Empire's Shang Clan from Shang Province. The one on the left is the Star River Ship of the Holy Union."
Hearing this explanation, Song Chi nodded slightly, further convinced that White Eyebrow's origins were beyond his imagination.
After about ten minutes, Song Chi and the other dozen people were all transported off the Pursue Star Chase Moon.
Due to their shadow energy being sealed, they had to stay there for a day before they could officially enter the secret realm behind the three Star River Ships on the following day.
It wasn't just them; there were also captains waiting in front of the other two Star River Ships. Apparently, not only the Celestial Beacon Palace was continuously recruiting people, but the other two families were doing the same.
Through previous inquiries and White Eyebrow's explanation, Song Chi learned that these two families were by no means ordinary.
Not to mention the Star River Ship of the Holy Union, the Shang Clan from Shang Province of the Immortal Qin Empire was an undisputed giant. According to the information Song Chi had gathered, the Shang Clan was one of the founding families of the Immortal Qin Empire, a true Dragon-Companion clan with a heritage spanning over two hundred thousand years. It was rumored that the Shang Clan possessed three visible Star River Ships, making them one of the most prominent forces among the Eternal Titan Clans.
From the perspective of the Shang Clan of Shang Province and the Celestial Beacon Palace, it was evident that the 8th Rank Galaxy Vessel from the Holy Union would not be simple either.
Initially, Song Chi thought that with the presence of three Galaxy Vessel elders, this day would be a breeze. But to his surprise, an unexpected event soon unfolded.
Moreover, this unexpected incident was closely related to him.
The story began with a male clan member from the Shang Clan who had actively approached them.
Like the others, this man had his Shadow Energy sealed, making it difficult to discern specific information. However, his target was clearly the White Eyebrow standing beside Song Chi.
"Little Eyebrow, you've taken on a task too?"
Seeing the man's cheerful expression, Song Chi initially thought they were close. But upon noticing White Eyebrow's already cold expression turning even colder, he realized otherwise.
In response to the Shang Clan man's greeting, White Eyebrow directly turned her body away, not even bothering to reply.
At this point, it wasn't considered an unusual occurrence. However, after seeing White Eyebrow's obvious displeasure, the Shang Clan man acted as if he hadn't noticed, still thick-skinnedly approaching White Eyebrow as if he wanted to do something.
At this moment, Song Chi, who had been observing without taking action, could no longer stand by idly. He stepped forward with his right leg, blocking the man's path.
Without saying a word, he firmly blocked the man's way.
Facing Song Chi with a smile, the Shang Clan man's expression changed rapidly when he turned to Song Chi. His face showed impatience as he coldly said, "Who do you think you are to dare block my path?"
Song Chi broke his silence this time. Without taking a single step back, he retorted, "Self-awareness is a virtue. It's clear she doesn't want to acknowledge you, so why keep embarrassing yourself?"
After speaking, Song Chi stared at the man with an equally cold gaze.
On the other side, Shang Jie's eyes had already darkened with anger. In his life, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this.
Who did Shang Jie think he was? He was the son of a 7th Rank Planet Destroyer elder, and his ancestor was the 8th Rank Galaxy Vessel elder of the Shang Clan. From birth until now, everyone had always treated him with the utmost respect.
"Kid, you don't play hero by saving the damsel in distress like this. Some people are not to be offended, even if you are from the Shining Star Order..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a terrifying pressure descended upon Shang Jie. In the next moment, he was thrown into the air by an immense force, shooting through the starry sky like a cannonball. It was only the intervention of the Shang Clan's Galaxy Vessel elder that brought him back.
"Celestial Wolf, you've gone too far..."
The voice of the Shang Clan's Galaxy Vessel elder sounded, seemingly dissatisfied with Celestial Wolf's actions.
However, Celestial Wolf, who originated from the Celestial Beacon Palace, remained unyielding.
"Not everything can be said. When my Celestial Beacon Palace was fighting for the Flame Torch Civilization, your Shang Clan was hiding in the rear, enjoying the comforts of others' efforts!"
"Celestial Wolf!"
...
In just a few words, the two Galaxy Vessel elders seemed on the verge of a physical confrontation. Even as the person involved, Song Chi felt a chill run down his spine, fearing that the two elders would disregard everything and engage in a real fight.
They were in the Alien Expanse, and the strict rule against internal strife set by the four major empires of the Flame Torch Civilization did not apply here. Moreover, with his Shadow Energy sealed, Song Chi couldn't summon his battleship or enter the Multiverse Ruins Market. If he were caught in the aftermath of a battle, even eight hundred lives wouldn't be enough to survive.
Fortunately, there was another Galaxy Vessel elder present. After mediation by the Holy Union's Galaxy Vessel elder, the two elders finally calmed down.
Of course, this was mostly just for show. If a Galaxy Vessel elder truly wanted to take action, they could have easily crushed Shang Jie with a mere hint of their power.
In essence, it was just a casual punishment for a reckless and arrogant young master.
As for Song Chi, he could sense that at one moment, White Eyebrow glanced at him. Her personality prevented her from expressing her gratitude verbally, but Song Chi could feel a hint of appreciation in her gaze.
After this brief interruption, there were no further incidents.
Soon, the next day arrived.
After the three Galaxy Vessel elders lifted the Shadow Energy seal, more Flame Torch battleships began to appear in the starry sky.
When the last person summoned their battleship, the voices of the three Galaxy Vessel elders also sounded.
"Everyone, enter the secret realm. Remember, the dangers within are high, so prioritize your safety while exploring."
The people present were the most outstanding members of their respective families, and none of them wanted to see severe casualties.
After everyone responded in unison, dozens of battleships rushed towards the entrance of the secret realm.
When it was Song Chi's turn, Shang Jie from the Shang Clan seemed to be deliberately waiting for him. As the Heaven Ruin Skydome approached, he controlled his battleship and rammed into Song Chi's ship.
Clang, clang, clang!
The sharp sound of metal colliding echoed, and Shang Jie quickly entered the secret realm, making this move seem like a routine demonstration of intimidation and provocation.
In the control room, a mocking smile appeared on Song Chi's face.
With Double Pupil, he had seen through all of Shang Jie's actions that he thought were hidden.
