Chapter 681: [Marketplace Trade and the Witch Civilization]
Chapter 681: [Marketplace Trade and the Witch Civilization]
This piece of micro-quality spiritual activation metal weighing over a hundred kilograms was priced at 50,000 Star Shrine points, which wasn't a large amount, but it was by no means cheap.
Still in no hurry to exchange, Song Chi didn't know how many Star Shrine points the components he had accumulated could exchange for, so he decided to browse through all the items first.
Under the seventh product list, Song Chi saw many things, including a black, top-quality energy shield, which was also a much-needed component for the Tianxu Skyvault.
However, after seeing the colorful [Chaotic Energy Generator] component from the Divine Dynasty's exchange list, he was genuinely not very interested in ordinary black energy shields.
His gaze shifted, quickly moving to the last, the eighth light screen.
"This is..."
Compared to the previous seven, this last light screen had very few items, no more than ten, but each one was enough to drive someone crazy.
[Chaos Crystal]
[Black Rank-Up Fire Core]
[8th-stage celestial beast· Floating Land Devourer enslavement voucher]
[10th Grade Golden Apple]
[Colored Lower-grade Oddity: Swallow-Moon Viper Body]
...
Seeing the colored lower-grade oddity [Swallow-Moon Viper Body], Song Chi's gaze froze.
Moreover, this [Swallow-Moon Viper Body] was just an oddity and couldn't be converted into a shipboard component of the same grade, which greatly reduced the value of this component.
[Swallow-Moon Viper Body], as the name suggests, was a Xinghai oddity transformed from the corpse of a high-grade celestial beast [Swallow-Moon Viper]. These types of oddities were the most useless kind for Torch Battleship captains of the Torch Human Civilization.
'Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why this oddity is displayed in the Star Shrine Market...'
This thought had just flashed through Song Chi's mind when he became increasingly certain.
Not for any other reason, but the rarity of colored mythological artifacts was evident to all. After so many years of opening the marketplace trade, the only colored component on the Tianxu Skyvault came from the Torch Human Civilization. This alone was enough to explain everything.
Thinking about this, Song Chi soon saw a special message below the product column for the [Swallow-Moon Viper Body].
[Oddity: Swallow-Moon Viper Body]
[Quality: Colored/Lower-grade]
[Convertible: No]
[Note: After the death of a 9th-grade limit Swallow-Moon Viper, its corpse was unexpectedly drawn into the mythological battlefield, where it was swept by the dense mythological energy storm turbulence for tens of thousands of years, eventually transforming into a special colored mythological oddity.]
[Hao Yue's Message: This item is only exchanged for special resources needed for a Star Destroyer to advance to a Star River Ship.]
"Hao Yue?"
To be more precise, he opened the [Big Dipper Star Hall Group Chat] of this token.
Like the Yao Guang Star Order group chat, this [Big Dipper Star Hall Group Chat] also allowed subordinate members to communicate freely online.
Of course, the [Big Dipper Star Hall Group Chat] had a more powerful effect. The Yao Guang Star Order could only allow Yao Guang Star Tower members to communicate freely within the Torch Human Galaxy Cluster's jurisdiction. Once they left the Torch Human Galaxy Cluster, the connection would automatically disconnect. However, the [Big Dipper Star Hall Group Chat] was not restricted by this.
As for why Song Chi knew this? Because at this moment, the Tanlang Palace Master and several other big shots were communicating in real-time in the group chat, and before this, these big shots had already returned to the Devil Serpent Floating Land.
Browsing through the [Big Dipper Star Hall Group Chat], Song Chi quickly found the person nicknamed [Hao Yue] among the three-digit number of members.
Through the group chat's note information, Song Chi gained a preliminary understanding of this [Hao Yue].
After understanding this, countless thoughts flashed through Song Chi's mind.
After carefully considering his own situation, he seemed to have made a decision.
'I can give it a try...'
This [Swallow-Moon Viper Body] was obviously put up for sale in the Star Shrine Market by the Star Hall member [Hao Yue], who specifically stated that it would only be exchanged for various additional resources needed for a Star Destroyer to advance to a Star River Ship.
As someone with some assets in hand, after pondering for a long time, he felt he could try to exchange for this item.
Without time to marvel at this, after returning to the Dragon Spine Continent, Song Chi quickly logged into the Zhutian Xu Market.
This time, there were no more accidents, and he easily entered the Xu Market.
Walking quickly towards the sealed storage room, Song Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Everything that had happened in that blood-colored space had made him feel uneasy, and it wasn't until he reappeared in the Zhutian Xu Market that he truly relaxed.
At the very least, this indicated that there were no unexpected situations in the Zhutian Xu Market Secret Realm, and his biggest trump card was still in his hand.
'So, the problem really lies in that blood-colored space. What exactly is that so-called [Chaos Nest]?'
...
Half an hour later, on the constantly moving Dragon Spine Continent in the pitch-black starry sky, the Song Clan's [Dragon Whale Ancestral Hall].
With a spatial fluctuation, Song Chi's figure appeared out of thin air.
After standing firm in the ancestral hall, a faint glow appeared in his brow, and the miniature Tianxu Skyvault was summoned.
In the battleship control room, Song Chi directly integrated the lump of silver metal in his hand into the ship's body.
After half an hour, he had completed his purchases in the Beidou Xing Dian shopping mall.
All the components he had accumulated over the past few centuries were exchanged for Star Shrine points, ultimately earning him over 200,000 points.
With these hundreds of thousands of Star Shrine points, he exchanged them for four items.
Micro-essence Spiritual Activation Metal
A sufficient quantity of Soul Stone
A Fertility Fruit
The Micro-essence Spiritual Activation Metal and Soul Stone need no introduction. As for the Fertility Fruit, it is a special Floating Land magical fruit with only one use: increasing the chances of conception for the consumer.
There was no other choice. After spending centuries with Shen Youran, they still hadn't conceived a child, which had been a constant source of worry for both of them.
He couldn't help but take a look at the 69169 book bar!
Moreover, with the initiation of the Tianxu Skyvault's promotion, once it succeeds, he himself will be close to entering the 7th Grade, and by then, the chances of conceiving a child will only decrease.
It is common knowledge that the higher and more perfect a lifeform's essence is, the more difficult it is to reproduce. Song Chi wanted to try his luck with Shen Youran before that.
Of course, these three items didn't require over 200,000 points. Song Chi still had over 100,000 points in his Star Shrine account.
Initially, he planned to exchange for a drop of 8th Grade Sovereign Essence Blood from the mall. The Sovereign Essence Blood currently fused with the Tianxu Skyvault is only 7th Grade. If he could cover it with 8th Grade Sovereign Essence Blood, it would undoubtedly increase the success rate of the promotion significantly.
The reason he hadn't made up his mind was that he wanted to see if there would be any gains from the subsequent Redstar Supra-Dimensional Continent. If he could successfully hunt down more than one 8th Grade alien, he could refine it himself using the Xu Market's capabilities, and at that time, neither 8th Grade Sovereign Essence Blood nor 8th Grade Sovereign Spirit would be lacking.
As this large chunk of Micro-essence Spiritual Activation Metal merged, he could feel the vitality of the Tianxu Skyvault's hull significantly increase. As a result, the combat power and duration of the Mythical Armor form will undoubtedly improve accordingly."
After fusing the Micro-essence Spiritual Activation Metal, Song Chi took out the exchanged Soul Stone and the Eternal Spirit Nest component.
After some enhancements, this component was strengthened to level 80.
Eternal Spirit Nest lv80
Quality: Black
Unique Trait: Spirit Nest
Consumption: 4600/s (Yin Power Points)
Effect: Consumes 1,000,000 Yin Power Points to release all the Spirit Souls stored in the Spirit Nest at once. For the next 50 minutes, the captain can freely command these Spirit Souls to attack designated targets. The strength of the Spirit Souls depends on the life position of the soul body before death. After 50 minutes, the Spirit Souls will dissipate on their own.
...
{Spirit Nest: The component has a built-in space that stores spirit souls. All soul bodies of enemy units personally killed by the loaded battleship will be automatically absorbed into the Spirit Nest. Once absorbed, these soul bodies will be nurtured by the special energy within the nest until they recover to their peak state before death. (Note: Currently, the highest grade soul body that can be absorbed is 8th Grade.)}
After reaching the 8th Grade, the attributes of this component have been significantly enhanced, meeting all of Song Chi's previous expectations.
With this component, if there are any gains on the Redstar Supra-Dimensional Continent, there will be an additional benefit in terms of spirit souls.
...
Zhutian Xu Market, Free Stall Area.
The new Xu Market trading session had been going on for several hours, and the number of aliens gathered in the stall area had already exceeded six figures.
Song Chi, disguised as a Blue Blood Race, was also among them.
In front of a Jackalope's stall, where a 5th Grade aura emanated, Song Chi stopped.
His gaze fell upon a familiar rhombic crystal on the stall, and he asked, "Big brother, this this mineral..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Song Chi's voice suddenly halted, leaving the Jackalope stall owner puzzled. His aura of malevolence seemed about to erupt.
However, Song Chi didn't have time to pay attention to it. He put the crystal back on the stall and quickly disappeared into the crowd of aliens behind him.
That rhombic crystal was just a mineral of some value in the Xin Huo Human Civilization domain. Compared to the major event of a 7th Grade Sovereign Spirit entering the Xu Market for the first time, it was not worth mentioning.
Indeed, just then, Song Chi had sensed the presence of a 7th Grade lifeform entering the Zhutian Xu Market.
Although it had been some time since the Xu Market's promotion to the 7th Grade, this was the first time a 7th Grade Sovereign Spirit had entered.
However, unexpectedly, this unfamiliar 7th Grade unit didn't enter through the Xu Market vortex gateway but from the Xu Market inn.
The Xu Market Wandering Room, wasn't this the room corresponding to the Xu Market Wandering Order in the hands of "Lai Wan," a 5th Grade Witch from the Witch Civilization?
Could it be...
As if realizing something, Song Chi mobilized the 9th Grade Sovereign power and silently probed with his thoughts.
Soon, his eyes lit up. The visitor was a Witch, a Sovereign-grade Spiritual Witch from a hegemon-level Witch Civilization.
For Song Chi today, ordinary 7th Grade Sovereigns were hardly worthy of his attention. After all, if he were to count carefully, numerous Sovereign units had already perished under the firepower of the Tianxu Skyvault.
The reason for his joy was that this time, the significance was completely different.
Not to mention anything else, the voluntary entry of this 7th Grade Sovereign-grade Spiritual Witch would set a precedent, reassuring the high-level existences behind other old customers of the Xu Market.
It was certain that with this Spiritual Witch's entry, more and more Sovereign lifeforms would appear in the Zhutian Xu Market in the future, which was excellent news for Song Chi.
First of all, it would greatly enhance the quality of future Xu Market trades.
Moreover, there was another point. Through hundreds of years of communication, Song Chi had long known that this Lai Wan was connected to another giant-level force in the Witch Civilization, the Bloodline Sorcerer Family.
What did this mean? The fundamental source of the extraordinary power wielded by the Bloodline Sorcerers in the Witch Civilization was their bloodline power.
According to various information Song Chi had gathered, among the numerous Bloodline Sorcerer Families in the Witch Civilization, there was one related to the Snake bloodline.
Speaking of which, the answer was already quite clear.
The reason Song Chi wanted to try to exchange for the Swallow-Moon Viper Body was for this very purpose.
Knowing that he had a client who could swallow this colorful oddity, Song Chi was willing to exchange for this relic. Otherwise, why would he bother?
