Chapter 608: Successful Strike
Chapter 608: Successful Strike
The spatial fluctuation swept past, and the mirror battleship instantly disappeared from its original position, reappearing in the highest airspace of the deep red domain.
It was this seemingly ordinary scene that caused all the surrounding admirals who were paying attention to this battle to feel a chill in their hearts, as if their gazes towards the mirror battleship carried an inexplicable weight.
Especially those inside the domain, no one understood the constraints of the Gods' Domain better than them.
"The flash escape component on this ship is at least golden quality!"
This was the thought that arose in their minds at this moment.
Li Songchi didn't pay attention to the thoughts of the surrounding admirals. His gaze was like a blazing torch, fixed on the armored giant below.
With the addition of the Starlight Spirit Talisman component from the Multiverse Bazaar, he could leave at any time, but he didn't do so.
As the proud scion of the Aklemont Clan of the Holy Dominion, and also being at the dreadnought stage, he was a rare opponent.
After developing in the Multiverse Bazaar for hundreds of years, he had long wanted to see how he compared to the top-tier geniuses of the four divine dynasties.
Of course, before this, the black supreme artifact had already been sent into the bazaar by his enslaved creature using the Aether Market Travel Token.
In this fleeting moment, as his thoughts raced in his mind, the armored giant below had already reacted.
Blood-colored energy circulated around the armor, and with the empowerment of the domain, its speed was astonishing.
The giant raised a black light longsword, and together with the armored giant, they transformed into an afterimage and charged straight towards the sky.
Seeing this, Li Songchi's eyes narrowed, and as his thoughts raced, another golden component on the mirror battleship, the Lotus Tranquil Seal, was activated.
Then, a large amount of temporal energy surged out from the battleship's body, intertwining with the blood-colored energy of the Gods' Domain outside, creating a spectacle of two energies dominating the sky.
The moment the Lotus Time Domain was formed, the sky above the Fifth Black Snake Capital completely transformed into a realm of two energies.
Each domain occupied a part of the sky, enveloping everything around them.
The Gods' Domain, being just a secret technique, was activated by a sixth-tier dreadnought admiral, while the Lotus Time Domain relied on an eighth-rank golden component. The current outcome was within expectations.
However, the armored giant quickly launched a counterattack.
Once again, a massive amount of energy began to overflow from within the armor, but this time, it wasn't the deep crimson blood energy; it was spatial energy.
Within this overwhelming energy, one could occasionally glimpse fleeting traces of profound secret runes.
"Law of Space!"
As a master of the Law of Space, Li Songchi naturally recognized these ancient secret runes at first glance.
This caused a slight chill in his heart.
The blood-colored energy that permeated the Gods' Domain also contained a significant amount of the Blood Law. Now, with the appearance of the Law of Space, the outcome was clear.
This dreadnought admiral, born into the Aklemont Clan of the Holy Dominion, was a supreme genius who had comprehended both the Blood Law and the Law of Space.
As a large amount of spatial energy and the Law of Space poured in, the two fundamental laws intertwined, causing the power of the Gods' Domain to surge. The Lotus Time Domain quickly fell into a suppressed state.
Seizing this opportunity, the armored giant extended its mechanical left arm, pointing the straight alloy arm towards the mirror battleship above. The alloy armor rapidly contracted, and a pitch-black cannon mouth soon appeared in the palm of the left arm.
Li Songchi didn't know what weapon his opponent had activated, but the second cannon fired a scorching beam that seemed to require no charging.
The cannon used by the armored giant was undoubtedly one of the two super main cannons, and its power was terrifying.
However, Li Songchi's response was swift. Under the effect of the Lotus Tranquil Seal's "Inner Speed" ability, the mirror battleship's bow also fired a main cannon attack.
It wasn't the "Blood Judgment" of the Fresh Blood Spear, but the "Living Beings Annihilation Arrow" of the Ten Thousand Souls Annihilation Bow.
The characteristics of the Fresh Blood Spear were too obvious, and using it would make it easy to be traced.
The Ten Thousand Souls Annihilation Bow was more common.
Whoosh!
The two beams of light fired almost simultaneously and successfully collided mid-air.
An energy storm erupted, but the outcome was clear; the Annihilation Arrow could only hold out for two seconds before being crushed by the opposing beam.
The beam struck the energy shield of the mirror battleship, causing a violent impact.
However, at that moment, the Taiyi Quantum Sword Light Cannon, which had been dormant until now, unleashed a quantum sword light.
This true immortal quantum sword light was not blocked and successfully landed on the energy shield of the armored giant below.
The attack characteristics of an ordinary silver main cannon naturally couldn't cause much damage, only dimming the energy shield of the armored giant.
But this had already achieved Li Songchi's purpose.
Through the attributes of the Taiyi Quantum Sword Light Cannon itself and the calculations of the Celestial Mind, he could roughly determine the specific quality and enhancement level of the opponent's energy shield.
Previously, when the opponent fired their cannon, Li Songchi had used the Lotus Time Domain to engage in a barrage of attacks against the mirror battleship.
Using the same method, he had deduced the quality and enhancement levels of the two super main cannons and four main cannons equipped by the opponent, and with the previous energy shield, he had a good understanding of their capabilities.
Boom!
The two sides clashed again, and their outer energy shields dimmed.
Just as the armored giant was about to strike again, Li Songchi's lips curled upwards.
"During the civil war, I won't play with you any longer..."
His gaze suddenly shifted to the side.
Starlight Spirit Talisman - "Starlight Spirit Escape", activated.
The activation of this special golden component caused the entire mirror battleship to emit subtle spatial fluctuations. Although the fluctuations weren't intense, their range far exceeded the previous one.
This subtle difference immediately caught the attention of the Aklemont scion below.
"Leave the items behind, or you won't be able to leave!" he shouted angrily.
As he spoke, the armored giant's body once again glowed with dazzling brilliance.
Inside the armor, the man clenched his teeth, and then a roar echoed:
"Divine Bone Whip - 'Divine Spirit Confinement', activated!"
As his roar echoed, a bone whip made entirely of golden divine spirit bones appeared out of thin air around the mirror battleship above. This bone whip contained indescribable energy, and as it rapidly wrapped around the battleship, Li Songchi was shocked to find that even the "Starlight Spirit Escape" ability, which could ignore spatial locks and banishment domains, was ineffective.
The pale golden bone whip wrapped around the battleship, and from the golden divine bone, divine spirit runes emerged, imbued with a powerful sealing force. This directly restricted the mirror image battleship, which was supposed to escape from the Black Snake Twin Continent, to its original position.
"Black artifact or colored?" Li Songchi's breathing quickened as he witnessed the new tactics employed by his opponent, which were evidently far beyond the ordinary.
And it didn't end there. In the instant the pale golden bone whip restrained the mirror image battleship, the armored giant below launched another attack, this time not from any of its arms, but from the energy core in its chest. A beam of eternal darkness shot forth.
Although Li Songchi didn't know what component triggered the black ray, he instinctively felt a sense of dread. His body broke out in a cold sweat, and a profound sense of horror emerged from the depths of his being.
【Neutron Star Core Armor】 - "Neutron Star Fission"! Without hesitation, he activated the strongest defensive feature of the ship's armor.
In an instant, the mirror image battleship, originally measuring 160,000 meters in length, transformed into a miniature neutron star. The temperature it emitted in that moment exceeded 40 million degrees.
The moment the transformation into a miniature neutron star was complete, the sense of dread in his heart plummeted by ninety percent. However, Li Songchi didn't linger. After activating the neutron star fission feature, he didn't hesitate to use his psychic energy to connect with the 【Star Sea Aether Market Token】 in his Flame Fleet Admiral's Ancestral Orifice.
The moment the black beam struck the miniature neutron star, his figure vanished from the main control room of the mirror image battleship. As for the outcome, he didn't bother to find out.
Mirror image battleship, mirror image battleship. Since it was a mirror image, he had long anticipated this situation. If he couldn't escape in time, he had to make sacrifices. At most, he would have to wait for a while until the 【Mirror Clone】 component cooled down, and then he would be back in the game.
Precisely because he understood this, he didn't waste any time. Even before entering the Aether Market, he didn't hand over control of the battleship to the Celestial Mind. With the mirror image battleship's configuration, he was genuinely afraid of what might happen if he let the Celestial Mind take control.
For instance, the "High-Energy Particle Storm" of the 【Neutron Star Core Armor】, the "Black Hole·Singularity Explosion" of the 【Black Hole Evolution Layer】, the "Ten Thousand Talismans Purple Heaven Thunder Hell" of the 【Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Cannon】, the "Hunter God Weakness Mark" and "Blood Judgment" – if he let the Celestial Mind have free rein with these, the outcome would be hard to predict.
Multiverse Bazaar, Free Stall Zone.
Upon entering the Aether Market, Li Songchi stood there, his eyes shimmering with light, and then a murmur could be heard.
"It can be confirmed that its two super main cannons, energy shield, and these three are golden components. Among the four main cannons, there are also two golden quality components. Together with that black longsword, at least the black divine bone confinement component and that final astonishing strike, it truly lives up to its reputation as the scion of one of the four great empires..."
Just as this thought crossed his mind, his train of thought was abruptly interrupted.
The faint light in his brow suddenly flickered, making him realize that the mirror image battleship outside had likely lost its mobility.
Those people hadn't directly sunk the mirror image battleship; instead, they had damaged the ship's hull by over 80%, rendering it immobile.
Perhaps they were afraid that the black artifact would be destroyed, or perhaps they didn't want to take a life during the civil war. But Li Songchi didn't care about any of that. His figure vanished again, and he returned to the main body of the Heaven Ruin Skydome.
Upon his return to the Heaven Ruin Skydome, he immediately deactivated the mirror image feature of the 【Mirror Clone】 component.
Black Snake Twin Continent, Fifth Black Snake Capital.
Monto Aklemont's face darkened as he watched a massive dreadnought vanish into thin air before his very eyes.
"How is this possible? This divine bone chain is a mythical artifact of our clan, a cross-starfield manifestation. Even if it's the same rank, it's impossible to break free from the confinement so quietly. Could it be a colored upper-level escape ability?"
...
Li Songchi was unaware of the subsequent events in the Black Snake Twin Continent. At that moment, he was comparing the attributes of the Heaven Ruin Skydome and the scion's flagship from the Holy Dominion.
Overall, the Heaven Ruin Skydome still held the advantage. Although it was slightly inferior in terms of firepower, the opponent didn't seem to have a component like the 【Angelic Sovereign's Wings】, which could grant a double layer of energy shields.
Moreover, the mirror image battleship didn't have a copy of the 【Time Chessboard】, a colored upper-level component. If one were to calculate it, the configuration and combat power of the Heaven Ruin Skydome were undoubtedly superior.
However, the pale golden divine spirit bone whip and the energy beam from the power core that the opponent used at the end caught Li Songchi's attention.
He had two speculations about the pale golden divine spirit bone whip. Firstly, it was likely a control component installed on the opponent's battleship, but this possibility was rather slim.
Given the capabilities of the 【Starlight Spirit Talisman】, even a black-quality confinement ability would find it difficult to completely restrict the Heaven Ruin Skydome or the mirror image battleship. Yet, the opponent managed to do so, indicating that the pale golden divine spirit bone whip was likely a colored artifact or component. Li Songchi didn't believe that the opponent's battleship would have such a high-level confinement component.
More likely, it was similar to the Song family's 【Dragon Whale Palace】, a high-level artifact fused with the Aklemont clan's ancestral core.
As for the attack from the power core, Li Songchi suspected it might be a special component like the 【Star Annihilation Wrath】.
After all, the opponent's two super main cannons were located in the palms of their hands, and the four main cannons were in the form of retractable turrets, two on each shoulder. Excluding these six ship cannons, it was unlikely for a dreadnought to have any other such components.
Of course, it could also be a different component.
The Star Sea was vast and boundless, and there were countless unique components, just like the 【Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine】, which strangely had a second engine-like feature.
Shaking his head, Li Songchi didn't dwell on this further. In summary, if the Heaven Ruin Skydome were to engage in a life-and-death battle with the opponent's flagship, he was quite confident in his chances of victory.
What concerned him at the moment was the black artifact he had obtained from the opponent.
This artifact was extraordinary, with a rare attribute, which explained why the opponent had specifically come to the Black Snake Twin Continent from the Holy Dominion's subordinate fleet.
