Chapter 1278 - 684: Journey to the Red Star Continent (Part 2)
Chapter 1278: Chapter 684: Journey to the Red Star Continent (Part 2)
This is the Song Family’s facade on the Red Star Continent. Additionally, special resources like the [Fire Carp] that can automatically promote Colorless and White Seed of Torch are produced here, which is why the Song Family has always placed great importance on managing this city.
Indeed, even though the [Starry Sky Dragon Shark] was mobilized to participate in the family fleet’s battle due to the civilization war, Song Chi still left a [Ruins Market Projection Rank] here as a precaution.
Although the main reason is that the Ruins Market increased to the Seventh Rank after promotion, allowing for 10 [Ruins Market Projection Ranks], it still shows the Song Family’s emphasis on [Dragon Shark City].
After hundreds of years of accumulation, today’s [Dragon Shark City] is already different from when it was first established.
Above the sky, when the hidden Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong arrived, one could see the long line of alien races at the four city gates, all waiting to enter the city.
Inside the city, millions of alien races wander the streets, bustling and lively.
Above the city, thousands of Torch Warships patrol back and forth. Should any conflict break out on the streets below, these Torch Warships would immediately descend to suppress it.
Unlike Dragon Abyss City, the Song Family has always heavily invested in Dragon Shark City. Even though the family is involved in a massive civilization war, over ten thousand Torch Warships remain here to maintain order.
The leading one is the [Far East Cruise Ship] Fearless Ship.
This [Far East Cruise Ship] Fearless Ship was transferred here to [Dragon Shark City] three hundred years ago. Before that, it was under the control of the Hidden Pulse’s Yaozu, but its potential was exhausted, and even using a Fifth Rank [Time Realm Fruit] failed to break through. It passed away due to old age three hundred years ago.
It was only after this that the [Far East Cruise Ship] took over.
Song Chi had long heard of this [Far East Cruise Ship]. It originally belonged to the ancestral vein [East Ancestor], equal in fame to [Prime Ancestor] and [Ru Zu]. The time it took to become a Fearless Ship was not much different from Song Xingru’s, but it was always stationed at the family’s base on the Evil Buddha Continent and wouldn’t have been transferred if not for the lack of leadership at [Dragon Shark City] three hundred years ago.
"Grandson Song Chi, greets East Ancestor!"
As the battleship communication connected, Song Chi was the first to speak.
Although he is also a Fearless Captain now and even ahead of most of the clan, having taken on the mission to advance to Annihilation Starship Captain, by family hierarchy, he should address him as "Ancestor."
No matter what, these individuals have contributed thousands of years to the entire family. Before the Song Family rose to prominence, they supported the family and secured various precious resources for all the Song Family juniors. Every one of them deserves the respect of the Song Family descendants.
Not to mention, even if he becomes an Annihilation Starship Captain or even a Galaxy Captain in the future, he would still call them Ancestor.
In the communication channel, Song Zhen Dong appeared very pleased, with a radiant smile on his face.
"Little Chi, why did you suddenly come to the Red Star Continent? Has the civilization war ended?"
"Not so soon. To completely end this civilization war, it will probably take at least a few thousand more years. Grandson came over this time..."
Song Chi briefly explained the reasons for his visit and the situation of the civilization war over the past few hundred years, which Song Zhen Dong listened to with great interest.
Afterward, Song Zhen Dong also introduced the situation here in Dragon Shark City.
"Little Chi, the situation in Dragon Shark City is gradually improving. In the past century, nearly every year yields dozens of strands of Eighth Rank Floating Land Origin, and occasionally one or two Eighth Rank Dominator True Spirits and even more Seventh Rank Dominator True Spirits."
As he spoke, the [Far East Cruise Ship]’s Fearless Ship’s hatch opened, and several Storage Capsules were drawn out.
When the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong absorbed the capsules into the battleship, Song Chi witnessed the remarkable yield of Dragon Shark City over the past few hundred years.
Eighth Rank Dominator True Spirits
Seventh Rank Dominator True Spirits
strand of Ninth Rank Floating Land Origin
strands of Eighth Rank Floating Land Origin
Gold [Particle Long-Distance Detection Radar]
Silver [Holy Spirit Heavenly Fire]
...
Song Chi was naturally not taken aback by these, but for a newly promoted Immortal Clan like the Song Family, this income is quite substantial.
In other Immortal Clans, such income over a few hundred years would be considered very impressive. With time, cumulating over thousands or tens of thousands of years, the accumulated foundation would be quite astonishing.
After chatting for a while longer with East Ancestor and ensuring everything was normal in [Dragon Shark City], Song Chi once again controlled the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong to leave.
Next, he planned to hunt Eighth Rank Dominator creatures. Such endeavors must not be linked to [Dragon Shark City].
Just because he could summon a half-step Ninth Rank [Ruins Market Projection] doesn’t mean there can be no fear at all. Even though there is no known Ninth Rank Dominator creature on the Red Star Continent for now, it doesn’t mean the highest is indeed only Eighth Rank combat power.
For instance, in [Holy Light City], a neutral city founded by an Eighth Rank Angel King.
What does an Angel represent?
That is an Overlord Level Civilization in the Shattered Starry Sea. Though it looks like just an Eighth Rank Angel King now, if you wound him, Song Chi is certain a bunch of High Rank Angels would quickly seek revenge.
Then it wouldn’t just be an Eighth Rank Angel King, even Ninth Rank Blazing Angels might appear.
Thus, this hunting venture requires careful planning, considering when to act, targeting which alien species, and more, all must be planned out beforehand. Otherwise, even with the support of Zhu Tian Ruins Market, Song Chi could provoke beings he couldn’t afford to anger.
In the Battleship Main Control Room, Song Chi’s eyes were fixed on the special information directory in his hand. This was data compiled by the Hidden Pulse over thousands of years, including information on the distribution of alien races across the Red Star Continent, their specific strengths, backgrounds, etc.
The foremost was indeed [Holy Light City].
Holy Light City, founded by a suspected bloodline descendant of some Ninth Rank Blazing Angel from the Angel Civilization, its backing energy is immense.
[Astrology Tower], born of the Starry Sea Advanced [Astrologer Civilization], possibly backed by Eighth or even Ninth Rank titled Astrologers.
Giant Elephant City, a city established by an Eighth Rank Giant Elephantians, seemingly with no further background.
Eighth Rank Black Moon Demon Wolf, a variant of the Starry Sky Behemoth Moon Howling Silver Wolf family, which has a Ninth Rank Silver Wolf Lord overseeing it.
Star Core City, Star Spirit Race’s city, has a Seventh Rank Star Spirit Dominator.
All these entries, carefully recorded by the Hidden Pulse, might not be exhaustive but serve as general references.
Not to mention, in the past, Song Chi visited [Star Core City] before, and the information was largely accurate.
After much consideration, Song Chi quickly decided on his first target.
[Giant Elephant City]!
The Red Star Continent is neither too small nor too large, once he acts, the spread of news would be swift. Therefore, to prevent the target from getting wary, he decided to directly target an Eighth Rank creature as his first target.
[Giant Elephant City] was founded tens of thousands of years ago, during the Eighth Rank Giant Elephantians’ early years of promotion. Its strength shouldn’t have increased significantly over the millennia, coupled with its lack of background, making it the most suitable first target.
Time passed, and in over half a year, tens of thousands of light-years away from [Dragon Shark City], the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong concealed in the void.
Looking down through the battleship’s holographic exterior, it’s easy to spot an imposing city standing on the side of the battleship below.
This city, while not as grand as Holy Light City, surpasses [Dragon Shark City] in rules. Coupled with the tens of thousands of years’ accumulation of alien clientele, the city currently hosts over ten million aliens.
Song Chi couldn’t help but be envious, knowing that neither [Dragon Shark City] nor [Zhu Tian Ruins Market] could match this scale currently.
