Chapter 764: Bathing in the Ninth-Tier Floating Continent’s Primal Energy Tides

[Holy Hall Federation, Montuo Rivers, the ancestral land of the Klayne Clan, Montuo Continent, will attempt the Ascension to the Ninth-Tier Floating Continent in twenty years.]

As he scanned the message sent directly to his Xinhuo Network account, a smile flickered in Song Chi’s eyes.

The Holy Hall Federation, located on the westernmost edge of the Xinhuo Human Civilization’s territory, is the farthest from the Celestial Qin Divine Dynasty in the east. However, with a twenty-year buffer, the time is ample.

This is one of the advantages of registering and filing in advance.

After receiving the message, Song Chi set out immediately, rushing all the way and spending nearly a decade to finally reach the Holy Hall Federation’s ancestral land, the Holy Hall Continent.

As the capital continent of one of the four major empires of the Xinhuo Network, the Holy Hall Continent’s strength is on par with the Celestial Qin Divine Dynasty.

This supercontinent, spanning over three million light-years, stretches across the star sea. Just its presence alone is a massive river system, and whether viewed from afar or up close, the awe it inspires is indescribable.

However, Song Chi’s destination this time is not the super lifeform Floating Continent that has already reached its peak at the ninth tier. After arriving at the vast teleportation hub outside the Floating Continent, he quickly switched to another teleportation gate.

After a violent spatial fluctuation, the Celestial Skygale once again traversed millions of light-years to reach the Montuo Rivers.

The Montuo Rivers are not particularly large, with a diameter of only about 900,000 light-years. Initially, this river system was home to several immortal clans. However, after the Klayne Clan produced a Galactic Ship Captain, the situation began to change gradually.

Over the ensuing years, this immortal clan, now a major power, embarked on a gradual expansion. Despite being constrained by warnings from the A'Klaimeng Clan above them, which deterred them from overtly oppressing others with force, the might of an immortal giant is formidable.

After thousands of years of covertly squeezing the living space of the other immortal clans in the river system, they could no longer bear it and moved out one by one, leaving the Montuo Rivers entirely under the Klayne Clan’s control.

This was before the Civilization War. During the war, the Klayne Clan also made significant gains, using the territory they acquired in the Octopus Demon Star Cluster to reach agreements with the immortal clans in the neighboring Mengsha Rivers, exchanging territories.

Now, the Klayne Clan has complete control over the Montuo and Mengsha river systems, and they also hold some territory in the Octopus Demon Star Cluster, making their power and strength truly astonishing.

In the main control room of the Celestial Skygale, Song Chi quickly reviewed the relevant information about the Klayne Clan.

While he was not particularly concerned about the previous information, a new piece of information listed by the Skybrain made his heart tremble.

[Wilton Klayne, one of the two Galactic Ship Captains of the Klayne Clan, and the first star river ancestor of the Klayne Clan, is rumored to be attempting to reach the Transcendent Mothership during Montuo Continent’s Ascension to the ninth tier.]

Although in the past four to five hundred years since the end of the Civilization War, many Pinnacle Galactic Ship Captains have attempted to become Transcendent Captains, and some have succeeded.

For example, the Seven Stars Hall - Greed Wolf Sovereign, the Celestial Qin Heavy Industries - First Director, and the former President of the Azure Nine-Tailed Fox Guild, among others. However, compared to the fact that the Xinhuo Human Civilization had only five Transcendent Captains in the past 300,000 years, the current number of Transcendent Captains is still quite rare.

After a brief moment of emotional fluctuation, Song Chi quickly regained his composure.

Over the past 300,000 years, the number of Pinnacle Galactic Ship Captains in the Xinhuo Human Civilization has never been small. With the victory in the Civilization War and the incorporation of the entire Octopus Demon Star Cluster into their territory, a wave of breakthroughs was expected.

Moreover, the Xinhuo Human Civilization is currently attempting to ascend to the ranks of the Overlord Civilizations. To support the entire civilization, it needs a sufficient number of Ninth-Rank combat units.

The promotion of a Pinnacle Galactic Ship to the Ninth Rank is a major event that mobilizes not just the Klayne family but the entire clan.

Apart from the personal supervision of another Galactic Ship Captain from the Klayne family, who is stationed in the Montuo Continent’s sky, the Floating Continent’s own primordial will provides a significant boost. Even if Ninth-Rank beings interfere, it can still hold out for enough time.

Additionally, the Aklemon Royal Family has dispatched a main fleet, commanded by two Galactic Ship Captains. This lineup ensures that the subsequent Ascension of the Montuo Continent will proceed without any hitches.

Song Chi’s arrival was also subject to a strict inspection by the Aklemon Royal Fleet, but fortunately, he had already obtained the credentials issued by the Xinhuo Ancestral Court, so he was not obstructed.

...

The High-Dimensional Plane, the Chaos Divine Land.

Deep within the vast, boundless sky, mighty stars hang high, with tangible laws of the cosmos manifesting between them, like divine eyes overlooking every corner of the wild, desolate land below.

Fearsome Chaos Storms rage across the vast, desolate land, their powerful gravitational fields often spanning tens of light-years. These storms, which are commonplace in the Chaos Divine Land, can pose significant problems even for Mythic Entities.

While they may not pose a fatal threat to these lofty Mythic Entities, they can certainly cause them significant harm.

There are even super Chaos Storms with diameters exceeding tens of thousands of light-years and gravitational fields spanning millions of light-years. Such storms can only be avoided by hiding in high-tier Chaos Cities; otherwise, even Mythic Beings would face certain doom.

Such occurrences are not rare in the long history of the Chaos Divine Land; they happen frequently.

Rising over a thousand light-years high and spanning several dozen light-years wide, the majestic city is constructed entirely from the supreme material known as Chaos Stone. Above the massive city gates, three characters of the Xinhuo Human Civilization are engraved on the wall.

Imperial Human City

This towering city, standing for over hundreds of thousands of years, is the sole base of the Xinhuo Human Civilization in the Chaos Divine Land.

Despite the near-impenetrable nature of this towering city, the number of Galactic Ship Captains sacrificed by the Xinhuo Human Civilization every year in the Chaos Divine Land remains countless.

The Chaos Divine Land is simply too perilous, with Chaos Storms and an endless number of Chaos Beasts, along with the dominant peak races and Overlord Civilizations that gather here, creating a supercontinent that is suspected to be located within the high-dimensional space.

On this day, two gigantic black shadows soared out from the towering Imperial Human City.

These were two super-large Flame-Ember Starships, one leading the other as they successively exited the Imperial Human City.

Despite their terrifying size, each over a hundred million miles long, the billions of Xinhuo Captains in the city did not notice them. The two giant starships slipped out of the Imperial Human City silently.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

After traveling a considerable distance from the Imperial Human City, the two super starships simultaneously initiated spatial jumps.

Intense spatial fluctuations appeared around their hulls, but in the vast, boundless Chaos Divine Land, such fluctuations were negligible.

The Chaos Storms that constantly form and dissipate across the land generate spatial fluctuations that are omnipresent and far exceed those caused by the starships’ jumps.

After the intense fluctuations, the two starships quickly vanished into the low sky and reappeared hundreds of light-years away.

If Song Chi were here, he would be greatly surprised.

Because these two giant Flame-Ember Starships are Transcendent Flagships, the Ninth-Rank vessels in the Flame-Ember Starship system, comparable to Ninth-Rank Sovereign Beings.

Logically, each jump of these starships should cover millions of light-years. Even with subpar jump components, the difference shouldn’t be that significant. The current jump distance of a few hundred light-years is highly unreasonable.

However, the two Transcendent Flagships continued to advance normally, as if this was nothing unusual.

Imperial Human City, Imperial Human Hall.

Deep within the hall, two figures sat quietly, their eyes closed, seemingly controlling something remotely with their divine senses.

There were no outsiders in the hall, so the two figures had no reservations. One of them spoke, “

"The hundredfold space of the Chaos Divine Land is still as overwhelming as ever. It’s been over two thousand years since I last felt it; I’m really not used to it anymore!"

"Who would disagree? Luckily, the Heaven-Shaking Race Ruins aren’t too far from the Imperial Human City—only about 300,000 light-years. With the relay stations set up over ten thousand years ago, it would take us at most two years!"

"Hurry up and get moving. This plan is extremely important. If we can make it in time, we must compete with the other clans. After all, if that object truly exists, one of us will benefit immensely in the future."

...

Over a year later, two Transcendent Flagships, which had been concealing their movements, arrived at the outskirts of a vast chaos mountain range.

This was a true chaos mountain range. Hundreds of light-years tall peaks were just ordinary members here, and thousands of such towering mountains stretched and connected, resembling a mythic black dragon lying in wait. Even from a distance, the ancient and vast aura was overwhelming.

The two colossal warships, each over ten million kilometers long, seemed minuscule in front of this mythic dragon-like mountain range. Even a single chaos pebble from this mountain range was larger than they were.

Deep within this chaos mountain range lay the most valuable ruins of the Heaven-Shaking Race.

Without delay, the two Transcendent Flagships roared to life and swiftly moved toward the heart of the mountains. In a short time, they vanished into the towering, undulating peaks.

Compared to the two Transcendent Flagships hidden deep in the void, there were countless creatures from various races surrounding the area. Among them were massive apes with bodies as red as ancient mountains, and the Rakshasa Clan, wielding bloodstained scythes.

Like the two Transcendent Flagships, these creatures had been drawn by the anomaly in the ruins from over a hundred years ago.

Ignoring the other races, the two Transcendent Flagships continued their swift advance, eager to reach the Heaven-Shaking Race Ruins as quickly as possible.

Months later, deep within the mountains.

The two Transcendent Flagships, hidden in the void, finally came to a stop after months of relentless travel.

Looking straight ahead from the warships, one could see the numerous figures standing deeper within the mountains.

These were the first arrivals from the Star Sea’s various races, including a few of the peak clans native to the Chaos Divine Land.

The occupation of the Octopus Demon Star Cluster had already spread throughout the Chaos Divine Land, and rumors of the Xinhuo Human Civilization approaching the level of an Overlord Civilization were rampant. The Xinhuo Human Civilization now seemed to be deliberately pushed to the forefront by certain civilizational powers.

In recent centuries, the Xinhuo Captains in the Imperial Human City rarely ventured out, and if they did, they would try to conceal their presence.

Similarly, the two Transcendent Flagships were reluctant to reveal themselves unless absolutely necessary.

After hovering in place, a tri-colored light flashed from the Transcendent Flagship on the left.

The tri-colored lower-tier Omni-Spectrum Information Harvester component was activated.

As the component’s abilities kicked in, time slowly passed.

Until half an hour later.

In the depths of the Imperial Human Hall, within the Imperial Human City.

"How did it go? Did you successfully gather the information?"

Following this inquiry, a response quickly came from within the hall.

"Yes, it was indeed the anomaly from the Heaven-Shaking Race Ruins. The exact opening time is in 90 years."

"90 years, just in time. It seems we need to make some thorough plans!"

"Yi, return to the Celestial Qin Continent as soon as possible and inform them of this news. Also, have the Xinhuo High Think Tank provide an execution plan as quickly as possible. The last time the Heaven-Shaking Race Ruins opened was 15,000 years ago. Given such a long period, the likelihood of that object being there is very high."

"Right, we should also notify the young ones on the Star-Sundering King Ranks. At the very least, those with Ship Clone components should be involved. Don’t underestimate these younger generations; some of their experiences would have even made us envious back in our day!"

...

On the Montuo Continent, at Inverted Void Peak.

This was a special mountain peak that resembled an inverted structure, and it was the location chosen by the Soul-Forge Ancestor Court for Song Chi’s second immersion in the ninth-grade Floating Continent’s primordial energy tides.

As one of the top fifteen places of primordial energy convergence on the Montuo Continent, Song Chi was very satisfied with this location.

With its excellent position and the immense volume of the ninth-grade energy tides, this place would certainly provide a significant boost to the Ascension success rate of the Celestial Skygale. Combined with the various resources he had already prepared, and the “Time Reversal” characteristic of the chronal chessboard component after Ascension, Song Chi was 99.99% confident that the Celestial Skygale would Ascend successfully.

The only thing that bothered him was that there were several other core Ascension points in the vicinity of Inverted Void Peak.

An opportunity to Ascend an eighth-grade Floating Continent to ninth grade was incredibly rare, and these Ascension points had naturally been claimed long ago.

Although they were close enough not to affect the success rate of his Celestial Skygale Ascension, Song Chi feared that the process might be disrupted.

The Celestial Skygale was Ascending from an Annihilator Ship to a Galactic Ship, which required more time and was more susceptible to interference from outsiders.

With the Holy Hall Federation’s royal fleet maintaining order, the likelihood of such a situation was minimal, but Song Chi couldn’t afford to take any risks.

In the end, he reluctantly summoned the Asura Emperor. The presence of a ninth-stage enslaved creature was enough to deter nearby Captains from approaching lightly.

Deep within the core of Montuo Floating Continent, where the continent’s primordial core resided, Wilton Klayne continued to toss out more primordial cores from other Floating Continents. As these cores merged, the Montuo continent’s primordial core began to rapidly expand.

This change triggered a series of chain reactions across the entire Montuo Floating Continent.

Mild tremors swept across the vast expanse of the continent, which spanned hundreds of thousands of light-years. Streams of energy tides began to flow, gradually increasing the energy density throughout the Floating Continent.

Just as the Floating Continent was about to Ascend, Song Chi’s eyes suddenly narrowed!

A message from the Xinhuo Network had just popped up in his mind.

Immersing himself in the Xinhuo Ancestral Aperture, he quickly saw a new conscription notice on the Xinhuo Network.

‘A conscription notice? How could it be a mandatory conscription notice?’

The message that suddenly appeared in his Xinhuo Network account was indeed a mandatory conscription notice from the Celestial Qin Divine Dynasty’s Xinhuo Ancestral Court.

“Respected Lord of the Vast Skies, Master of the Celestial Skygale, Captain Song Chi, greetings. By the order of the Celestial Qin Divine Dynasty’s Xinhuo Ancestral Court, you are hereby conscripted. Please report to the Celestial Qin Dragon City—Xinhuo Ancestral Court in eighty years for a Civilization Frontline mission. Please make all necessary preparations. Failure to comply will result in consequences—Celestial Qin Xinhuo Ancestral Court.”

Song Chi’s heart sank.

Logically, he had only registered with the Divine Empire’s Ancestral Court a little over a hundred years ago, and he shouldn’t be subjected to mandatory conscription, let alone for a Civilization Frontline mission, which was the most intense and dangerous type of assignment.

‘Could it be that one of the Civilization Frontlines is under pressure?’

‘The Star Sea Swarm or the Abyssal Void? Or perhaps the Imperial Human City?’

As he pondered, the sky above Montuo Floating Continent began to rain down a barrage of fiery meteors. These were small asteroids and Floating Continent fragments that the Klayne family had prepared over the past few millennia.

Now, as they were captured by Montuo Floating Continent’s gravitational field, it signaled the official start of the Ascension process.

Seeing this, Song Chi shook his head, putting aside his worries.

Whatever it was, it would be eighty years from now. As the saying goes, meet the soldiers with generals and the water with earth. The Celestial Skygale’s combat power was already astonishing, and it was currently at an Ascension node.

If he could successfully Ascend and enter the ranks of Galactic Ships, combined with the already Ascended Pantheon Market, he would have the strength to face whatever came his way.

At the very least, he had the confidence to retreat safely.

With this in mind, he refocused his attention on the Celestial Skygale.

The Floating Continent beneath his feet continued to expand. At this point, the Ascension of Montuo Floating Continent was practically a certainty.

The ninth-grade primordial energy tides were about to arrive!!
