Global Era of Star trekking

Chapter 1257: Chapter 673: Demon Snake Floating Land Operation Ends (Part 2)

The Corpse Emperor Clan civilization opposing the Eight-Armed Snake Demon Galaxy Cluster, the Bottomless Abyss Battlefront, the Star Sea Worm Clan Front, the Human Emperor City Battlefront, etc., all require solid Ninth Rank power for protection.

Otherwise, a slight misstep could lead to catastrophic consequences.

These frontlines have been built over the past 200,000 years by countless Torch Ship Captains through their own flesh and blood, and the complete collapse of any of them is simply unacceptable to the Four Great Empires of Torch.

Take the current {Star Universe Azure Dragon} projection as an example. The true {Star Universe Azure Dragon} body is now guarding the Star Sea Worm Clan Front, so it can only assist with combat through projection.

In the end, it’s exceptionally favorable, as the {Star Universe Azure Dragon} projection successfully saved a number of Torch Warships from the clutches of two Ninth Rank Snake Demons.

Though only less than twenty Torch Warships have survived, most are Star-Annihilating Starships and Star River Ships. Even by the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s standards, these are absolute top-tier combat power; losing any one of them is a significant loss.

After the strike, those two Snake Demon hands reaching from outside showed no desire for continued combat. The Ninth Rank energy quickly gathered all remaining Eight-Armed Snake Demons and carried them away from the Secret Realm.

This included the recently deceased Eighth Rank {Abyssal Nine-Headed Snake}, and the captains seemed to have noticed other creatures being taken from the core Floating Land as well — various rank {Abyssal Nine-Headed Snakes}.

The name of this Secret Realm is {Magic Snake Secret Realm}, its special resource being the legendary creature resource {Abyssal Nine-Headed Snake} with astonishing potential.

However, now that the two Ninth Rank Snake Demons have acted in full force, before teleporting away, they removed all {Abyssal Nine-Headed Snakes} from the Secret Realm, leaving uncertainty about whether the Magic Snake Secret Realm will be affected in the future.

Regarding this, the captains could only watch helplessly, even {Star Universe Azure Dragon} was the same.

Only a projection, even if the body arrived, its power would struggle to match the Ninth Rank Snake Demon backed by the original will of Magic Snake Floating Land. Saving these captains was already fortunate.

This was because the two Ninth Rank Snake Demons outside were wary of the {Immortal Qin Ancestor Dragon} that rushed into Floating Land, trying to quickly leave the Magic Snake Floating Land. Otherwise, just one more strike and the {Star Universe Azure Dragon} projection would surely be obliterated.

Until the two Ninth Rank Snake Demons took the remaining Eight-Armed Snake Demon elites and all {Abyssal Nine-Headed Snakes} and teleported away, the surviving Torch Captains were finally safe.

...

Compared to the rapidly changing battle outside, Song Chi was also not idle in the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.

In the market’s free stall area, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong quietly docked.

In the battleship’s main control room, Song Chi kept his eyes closed, fully concentrating as a stream of pure Law power emerged from within him.

This Law power was not singular but a mix of Space and Light Laws intertwined.

Once he confirmed the two Laws had fully condensed, Song Chi’s eyes suddenly opened, and all the Law power floating around him began integrating into the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong vessel.

This integration was not ordinary, but the complete fusion of the Space and Light Laws with the golden Torch Ship body of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong.

As the fusion continued, the promotion success rate displayed on the {Warship Promotion Task Panel} was dynamically changing.

Once the fusion was complete, the promotion success rate had increased to 25.001%.

However, this was not the end. After this, Song Chi took out various items which, once removed, quickly merged into the ship body of Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong just like the previous two Laws.

Seconds later, when Song Chi concentrated his gaze on the {Warship Promotion Task Panel} in front, the promotion success rate displayed had changed dramatically.

{Warship Promotion Task (Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong)}

{Current Promotion Success Rate: 76.001% (initial 0.001% + Bathing in Eighth Rank Abyssal Nine-Headed Snake Blood 15% + Bathing in Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon Blood 3% + Nine Revolutions Spirit Divine Fruit 10% + Top-Level Energy Crystal 10% + Seventh Rank Dominator Origin Blood 12% + Eighth Rank Ordinary Dominator Blood 1% + Special Resource Recipe 10% + Heavenly Serpent Blood Crystal 8% + Comprehension of the Law of Light 5% + Space Law Comprehension 2%)}𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

{Promotion Special Resource Recipe (3/3): Space Fragment*1, Extreme Stone*1, Silver Star Bracelet*1}

{Additional Promotion Resources: Seventh Level Dominator Origin Blood, Ordinary Eighth Rank Dominator Blood, Nine Revolutions Spirit Divine Fruit, Heavenly Serpent Blood Crystal}

{Bathing in Alien Blood: Eighth Rank Abyssal Nine-Headed Snake (15%), Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon (3%)}

Staring at the 76.001% on the task panel, Song Chi glanced at the drop of Seventh Rank Evil God’s Blood in his hand. If merged, the promotion success rate could rise to 84.001%.

But after some thought, he chose not to merge it.

Not because he was satisfied with the 76% promotion success rate, but because this drop of Evil God Blood was only an ordinary Seventh Rank level, leaving room for improvement.

The Star-Annihilating Starship promotion task lasts for ten years, and with the recent acquisition of a drop of {Eight-Armed Demon God’s Blood}, Song Chi intends to see if he can trade for Eighth Rank Evil God’s Blood from the New Moon Matriarch later.

Eighth Rank Evil God’s Blood

Seventh Rank Evil God’s Blood

Though separated by only one rank, the promotion success rate bonus they provide differs significantly.

According to Song Chi’s information, ordinary Eighth Rank Evil God’s Blood offers a 13% bonus for Star-Annihilating Starship promotion, a 5% difference back and forth.

With this 5%, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s promotion success rate would nearly reach 90%, certainly something Song Chi desires.

However, higher-rank Evil God’s Blood will automatically cover and void the effects of lower-rank Evil God’s Blood. While merging now isn’t impossible, obtaining Eighth Rank Evil God’s Blood later would waste the prematurely merged Evil God’s Blood, and Song Chi isn’t careless enough to disregard a drop of Seventh Rank Evil God’s Blood.

After merging all prepared resources in hand, Song Chi retracted the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong.

His eyes glimmered with shifting thoughts, still contemplating the promotion success rate issue.

The upcoming market exchange hadn’t cooled down, and there was no rush.

Even if trading for Eighth Rank Evil God’s Blood later, the promotion success rate would only be 89.001%, still feeling a bit unsatisfying.

Thus, he considered how to further enhance the promotion success rate.

In that moment, determination filled his eyes as he made a decision.

There are simply two ways to boost the promotion success rate.

First: Continue collecting higher-quality additional promotion resources.

Second: Hunt more High Rank Aliens.

He would naturally be attentive to the first point, and coincidentally, the Magic Snake Floating Land action seemingly earned plentiful achievement points, allowing him to browse for more additional promotion resources later.

As for the second point, it poses some difficulty.

It’s not about the combat power; previous battles have repeatedly proven that the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong is capable of directly killing Seventh Rank units. The issue is the mission time is only ten years, and Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons aren’t common. After the Demon Snake Continent’s fall, aiming to massively kill Dominator-level Snake Demons won’t be easy.

Nonetheless, he has his own strategy. Civilization warfare isn’t easily maneuvered, but he can switch targets.

The Eight-Armed Snake Demon Civilization is ultimately a top-level Advanced Civilization, and during Mirror Image Warship cooldowns, Song Chi wouldn’t recklessly hunt Seventh Rank Snake Demons using Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s body, lest he encounters hidden Ninth Rank Snake Demons, which would be perilous.

Compared, the {Red Star Continent}, discovered and maintained by the family for millennia, seems more fitting.

At least, as recorded by the family Hidden Pulse, the {Red Star Continent} has historically never seen Ninth Rank living beings, nor are there rumors of them.

Thus, able to summon half-step Ninth Rank projections using the {Ruins Market Projection Rank}, Song Chi can theoretically dominate the {Red Star Continent}, where Seventh Rank and Eighth Rank creatures are always abundant.
