Chapter 650: Celestial Xia Dynasty - Starshift Continent
Chapter 650: Celestial Xia Dynasty - Starshift Continent
It took several days for the entire Song family to barely digest the resources obtained from the secret war treasury of the Divine Dynasty.
Of course, a significant portion of these resources were set aside for the future promotion of their flagship, and could not be used directly. They had to be carefully stored for later use.
After this, the Song family's upper echelons began to announce the subsequent action plan that had been decided upon.
The family would continue to participate in the frontline war in twenty years, but unlike before, they would not casually lead millions of warships into battle. This time, they would only bring along their most elite 500,000 Flame Warships.
Many members of the family were puzzled and even skeptical about this announcement.
500,000 warships, even if they were all elite Flame Warships, was still a limited number. Their combat strength couldn't be too high, and they might even be completely lost on the battlefield if they weren't careful.
As a result, dissenting opinions emerged from various branches of the family.
No one came forward to explain, but the Song family's upper echelons did not change their plan, as if they were determined to proceed.
After a few more days, the Bone Gnawing Clan proactively sent a message.
For the next thousand years, they would no longer participate in the war but would focus on recuperation and accelerating the immigration process to the Crimson Disc Galaxy Cluster, ensuring they could establish a firm foothold in the new territory as soon as possible.
The Song family was not surprised by this decision, as they had already heard related rumors before.
Given the situation the Bone Gnawing Clan was facing, they had been allocated the best territory in the Crimson Disc Galaxy Cluster, apart from the Song family's own. A star domain spanning 150,000 light-years was more than enough for the Bone Gnawing Clan's future development.
In comparison, as the civil war raged on, the intensity of the battles had gradually reached a fever pitch. One wrong move could lead to the sinking of ships and the loss of lives, as evidenced by the recent incident where nearly a hundred Star Annihilator Captains from the four propulsion fleets met their end.
For a clan like the Bone Gnawing Clan, with its shallow foundation and only one Star Annihilator Captain to hold up its reputation, a thousand-year respite was undoubtedly crucial to avoid the risk of the entire family's downfall.
Not only the Bone Gnawing Clan, but the Dawnstar Family, the Stark Family, and even the Dongli Xiao Clan, all made the same choice—to recuperate and thrive.
Recuperation and thriving!
The Song family had no right to interfere with the decisions of these families, but there was one thing they couldn't help but mention.
Although the Song family had decided to continue participating in the civil war, this time, they would only lead a small portion of their clan. The rest of the clan members would also stay behind, led by the upper echelons, to focus on accelerating the immigration process and developing the star domain within the Crimson Disc Galaxy Cluster allocated to them.
In short, they would quietly cultivate and thrive.

Firm Sea Dragon Soaring Ship - Cosmic Communication Chat
Song Wujang: "Song Chi, since the decision has been made, there's no time to waste. Let's set off immediately!"
"Or should I say, you don't plan to send the Heaven Ruin Skydome itself but rather its mirror image warship?"
In response to the elder's question, Song Chi quickly replied, "Elder, I do intend to send the mirror image warship!"
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a month had gone by.
On this day, a golden light appeared on the body of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, and in the next second, a warship with the same shape, captain, and color as the Heaven Ruin Skydome materialized beside it out of thin air.
If it wasn't a mirror image of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, what was it? This time, there was a slight difference from before. As soon as the mirror image warship was summoned, it transformed into a completely unfamiliar warship.
The name displayed on the warship was not 'Heaven Ruin Skydome' but rather the never-before-seen 'Flame and Yellow Nine Provinces'.
However, due to the permanent concealment effect of the replicated 'Membrane of the Void', none of the surrounding warships noticed this transformation.
After using the 'Thousand Transformations' ability of the evolved golden-grade 'Illusory Dragon Transformation Orb' to alter the warship's shape, color, and name, Song Chi believed that it would be difficult for outsiders to discern the true identity of the mirror image warship. Without hesitation, he notified the core members, and in the next second, the mirror image warship had already rushed towards the distant starry sky.
"I hope it will be enough for twenty years..."
As he murmured, the mirror image warship had already disappeared at the edge of their vision.
Far away, inside the mirror image warship, Song Chi gave the replicated 'Firmament Intelligence Brain' a Spatial Jump command through his ethereal body.
It wasn't an ordinary Spatial Jump but a 'Crimson Dome Warp' using the 'Crimson Dome Warp Device'.
Before the jump charging was complete, the mirror image warship had already transformed into a miniature neutron star.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Intense spatial ripples reverberated through the pitch-black starry sky, and before long, the miniature neutron star suddenly plunged into the spatial channel ahead. After a brief feeling of weightlessness, when they regained their senses, the miniature neutron star had already traveled over six million light-years.
After the Crimson Dome Warp, Song Chi had no intention of continuing the journey. Instead, he found a hidden location for the Heaven Ruin Skydome to dock while he himself entered the Multiverse Bazaar to comprehend the laws.
Over the course of hundreds of years, not only had his cultivation level in the Guiding Technique improved, but his comprehension of the laws had also deepened.
Among the three laws, his progress in the Law of Light was the most remarkable.
Initially, by devouring ten 'Dead Calamity Cores', he had directly boosted his comprehension of the laws to 90%. Now, after hundreds of years, with the help of the Multiverse Bazaar, the Double Pupil, and the False Enlightenment Cushion...
Under the support of various auxiliary methods, his understanding of the Light Law had reached 94%.
Although it was only a 4% increase, it still represented an equivalent boost to the success rate of the upcoming Star Annihilator Cannon transformation.
As for the Space Law and Time Law, even though he had devoted most of his energy to these two laws over the past few centuries, his progress was still unsatisfactory.
The Space Law had just broken through 85%, and the Time Law was even lower at 81%.
This was the result of a rapid advancement during his fifty-year stay in the Time Tower, which allowed for a significant improvement in the Time Law; otherwise, the progress would have been even slower.
Regarding this, Song Chi had always felt a bit of a headache. His previous plan was obviously an over-simplification, assuming that with multiple auxiliary effects, breaking through 90% in both Space and Time Laws would be a certainty.
Now it seemed that the Space and Time Laws truly lived up to their reputation as the strongest laws in the Star Sea, becoming increasingly difficult to comprehend as one progressed. Especially when cultivating both Space and Time Laws simultaneously.
At this point, Song Chi no longer had the same grand ambitions as before. He only hoped that in the next one or two hundred years, he could try to raise his understanding of the Space Law to above 90%, providing a slight boost to the success rate of the upcoming transformation of the Heaven Ruin Skydome.
Of course, there was also the Light Law, which could only proportionally increase the success rate. But as long as there was even a slight improvement, it would still be beneficial.
As for the Time Law, he no longer held any extravagant hopes. He would wait until he broke through the seventh level of guiding techniques, utilizing the next law resonance period to push it to perfection.
More than twenty days later, he once again left the Multiverse Bazaar and returned to the outside world, then initiated another "Crimson Dome Warp."
Time slowly passed by in this repetitive cycle.
Two months, three months...
Please...collect...Book...6191...
After countless repetitions, Song Chi never stopped. This time, his destination was the Celestial Xia Dynasty.
To be more precise, it was the Celestial Xia Dynasty Starshift System, nearly five billion light-years away from the Crimson Disc Galaxy Cluster.
Five and a half years later, the Celestial Xia Dynasty Starshift System.
With a buzzing sound, a warship emerged from the void and appeared in the center of a star domain in the system.
However, this was only from the perspective of the mirror warship itself. From the outside, it was impossible to detect any of these movements.
The golden Illusory Dragon Transformation Orb's "Illusory Shadow" ability was dozens of times more powerful than before, and even a Star Annihilator Cannon equipped with a golden sky-scanning radar might not be able to detect it.
Without paying attention to these details, Kongling turned his head to glance at the star map on the side, confirming his current position, and the mirror warship immediately sped off in a certain direction.
The Starshift System was the headquarters of the Starshift Corporation, which had been under the control of the Celestial Xia Dynasty for over two hundred thousand years, making it one of the dynasty's oldest systems.
However, the Starshift System wasn't very large, with a diameter of only slightly over sixty million light-years.
Precisely because of its small size, the system was named Starshift, as besides the official forces of the Celestial Xia Dynasty, there was only one Starshift Corporation within the system.
Even though the Starshift Corporation was an immortal giant-level force with a Star River Ship stationed there, in the Celestial Xia Dynasty, where immortal forces were abundant, it was impossible for a single force to monopolize an entire system.
Take the Lingyue Zhao Clan, for example; they were also an immortal giant-level force, but how many immortal forces were there in the Lingyue System? Just on the surface, there were eight of them.
This was why the Starshift System was so small.
The small system size also meant that it took less time for Song Chi to travel. In less than ten days, the Heaven Ruin Skydome mirror warship was already not far from the Starshift Continent.
In a dense asteroid belt, the mirror warship hovered silently.
Inside the warship, after a slight spatial fluctuation, Song Chi's main body appeared.
After leaving the warship, his spiritual light flickered between his eyebrows, and the main body of the Heaven Ruin Skydome was quickly summoned.
Naturally, he needed to personally negotiate the towing of the Dragon Spine Continent, and using the mirror warship as a substitute was merely a superficial gesture.
As he controlled the main body of the Heaven Ruin Skydome to leap towards the Starshift Continent, the mirror warship once again initiated a spatial leap.
This time, in addition to handling the towing of the Dragon Spine Continent, the mirror warship had another important task, which was the primary reason Song Chi had deliberately evolved the Illusory Dragon Transformation Orb's components.
Without further attention to the mirror warship, the main body of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, after a few leaps, easily arrived outside the Starshift Continent.
He did not rashly enter the Floating Land but instead waited quietly outside, as it was impolite to intrude upon the ancestral land of an immortal giant-level force, even if they did not have the Floating Land shield activated.
He believed that the Heaven Ruin Skydome had surely been discovered by them, and he only needed to wait patiently for someone to come and greet him.
During the wait, his gaze subconsciously began to examine the massive Starshift Floating Land ahead.
Undoubtedly, this was an eighth-rank Celestial Sea Floating Land, directly spanning over two hundred thousand light-years, which was already considered quite impressive among eighth-rank Floating Lands.
