Chapter 1005 -524: Delighted to Hear About the “Time Chess Board”_2
Dragon Spine Continent, Zhuifire Plains.
Within the large combined Illusion Space, Song Chi voluntarily informed the patriarch of the coordinates revealed by divination.
Song Wujiang was slightly surprised.
“Are you suggesting we use the [Space Wormhole Generator] to see if it can connect the wormhole exit to these coordinates?”
“Yes, Patriarch, these coordinates are very important to me. For now, we can only let the [Space Wormhole Generator] components give it a try!” frёewebnoѵēl.com
Song Wujiang pondered carefully for a moment, then finally nodded and said:
“Since it was derived by a Seventh Rank Astrologer, it shouldn’t be too dangerous. However, to be safe, bring the Starry Sky Dragon Shark over first!”
Only after Song Chi brought the Starry Sky Dragon Shark back from the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong did Song Wujiang tentatively activate the [Space Wormhole Generator] components.
A moment later, he shook his head and said:
“It’s not working, it can’t be activated!”
This declaration made the result clear: the coordinates derived from divination were located over 30 billion light-years away from the Dragon Spine Continent.
Noticing the flash of helplessness in Song Chi’s eyes, Song Wujiang comforted him:
“The [Space Wormhole Generator] is currently only Level 70. Once upgraded to the Eighth Rank, its maximum connection distance can reach 300 billion light-years. By then, it should be possible to confirm the exact location of your coordinates.”
Song Chi nodded lightly.
“Understood, thank you for the help, Patriarch. I still have matters to handle on the [Red Star Continent], so I won’t stay long on the Dragon Spine Continent.”
This, however, was just surface politeness. In truth, he was deeply disappointed.
The Eighth Rank—spoken of so casually—was not so easily attained.
Not to mention the vast resources required for the upgrade, even obtaining a Golden Torch Seed alone was a formidable challenge.
Song Wujiang, now only possessing a Silver Torch Seed, would need to acquire a strand of Golden Upgrading Fire Source to advance to a Golden Torch Seed. But such an advanced Fire Source was immeasurable in value and even more precious than ordinary Black Supreme Components. Even among Star-Annihilating Starship Captains, over half lacked a Golden Torch Seed, which spoke volumes about its rarity.
Spectral Energy surged as Song Chi returned to Zhu Tian Ruins Market. However, at that moment, a spark of inspiration flashed in his mind. He thought of a way to extend the range of the [Space Wormhole Generator] without upgrading it to the Eighth Rank.
“It seems I could use the [Miracle Origin Improvement Platform] to give it a try.”
Muttering to himself, a glimmer of excitement flashed in Song Chi’s eyes.
After weighing the idea for a while, he realized this approach indeed had significant feasibility.
But he refrained from acting rashly.
“No, I need at least a ‘distance tripled’ trait line to even consider it. Even that might not be enough. Tripling would only reach 90 billion light-years, which is still too small…”
Muttering to himself, Song Chi returned to [Holy Light City].
With a plan in mind, over the next two days, he wandered through various parts of [Holy Light City], deliberately searching for special transmission components.
When it was mentioned he needed components with traits like “double transmission range,” Song Yan also promised to help him search actively.
Additionally, Song Chi spread the news in the Star Rank Group Chat, contacting Shen Youran, the Dragon Spine Continent, Pan Ying, Wang Zhen, and others. He also placed high-priced purchase requests in the Ruins Market and Divine Country Player Trading Space, employing every resource at his disposal to seek out such trait lines.
Two days later, still without results, Song Chi and Song Yan departed [Holy Light City]. Outside the city gates, they reunited with Jing Ji and Jing Hu. The four of them summoned their respective Starships and sped toward a Star Spirit Race stronghold over 3,000 light-years away.
Within the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Control Room, Song Chi curiously observed the two unique Starships nearby.
Unlike the Torch Human Civilization’s Torch Warships, the Mirrors Clan’s exclusive Starships, known as Mirror Rhombus Shuttles, typically featured sleek, streamlined designs offering unimaginable speeds. Combined with their formidable Illusion abilities, they often caught enemies off guard in stellar warfare.
Following a brief discussion, all four Starships sequentially activated their Jump Devices.
However, while Song Chi and his companion used the Torch Warship’s standard Miracle Jump, the two Mirror Rhombus Shuttles employed curvature jumps instead.
Several days later, at the outskirts of the Star Core Plateau.
The four concealed Starships silently observed the massive fortress city looming on the horizon.
The city, named [Star Core City], was the primary stronghold of the Star Spirit Race for this mission. Compared to the previous [Holy Light City], [Star Core City] was significantly smaller in scale.
In the Warship Communication Group Chat, discussions continued between the participants.
“So, if we lure out the Star Spirit Dominator, are you certain you can bypass the Star Core Formation and infiltrate Star Core City undetected?”
Though the plan had already been confirmed multiple times, at this crucial moment, Song Yan couldn’t help asking again.
“Yan, trust us. The Mirrors Clan isn’t just about disguise; spatial manipulation is one of our core abilities!”
“Alright, then. Begin camouflaging my cousin’s Starry Sky Dragon Shark!”
With that, Song Yan signaled to Song Chi, who promptly opened the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s hatch.
Moments later, the miniaturized Starry Sky Dragon Shark dashed out of the Warship.
At that instant, rays of Mirror Light streamed out simultaneously from both Mirror Rhombus Shuttles, heading straight for the Starry Sky Dragon Shark.
Having been prepped by Song Chi, the Starry Sky Dragon Shark didn’t resist as the beams of Mirror Light merged into its body.
Soon after, Song Chi witnessed an extraordinary transformation: the previously normal-looking Starry Sky Dragon Shark morphed, under the gleam of Mirror Light, into a Black Teeth Giant Shark.
“Honestly, it’s flawless—I can’t see any discrepancies!”
Seeing such a lifelike disguise for the first time, Song Chi was visibly astonished.
Already accustomed to this, Song Yan chuckled and said:
“This is just a basic ability of the Mirrors Clan. Furthermore, Jing Ji is currently only at the Sixth Rank, and Jing Hu is merely at the Fifth Rank. To avoid detection, they could only mimic a form similar to the Black Teeth Giant Shark. If it were a Domination Level member of the Mirrors Clan, they could even disguise the Starry Sky Dragon Shark as a Domination Level Mechanical Divine Spirit—one undetectable even to enemies of the same level!”
…
“Now, let the operation commence!”
Within the Communication Group Chat, the four exchanged determined glances.
Then, with a thought from Song Chi, the outwardly-disguised-as-Black-Teeth-Giant-Shark Starry Sky Dragon Shark soared into the sky. As it ascended, its body began to rapidly expand.
Roar!
A deafening roar reverberated across the skies of the Star Core Plateau, instantly alarming the dominators of the entire region.
Near the central area of the plateau, within Star Core City, the Power of Domination overflowed, and the newly ascended Star Spirit Dominator’s aura blanketed half the Vault of Heaven.
The Star Spirit Dominator did not appear. Instead, it seemed to convey its authority over the plateau through its aura, warning the Starry Sky Dragon Shark. However, such a display was doomed to fail. On Song Chi’s signal, the Black Teeth Giant Shark-impersonating Starry Sky Dragon Shark advanced toward Star Core City unhesitatingly.
According to the default rule of the [Red Star Continent], this was a direct provocation against the region’s protector.
Receiving this challenge, the Star Spirit Dominator within Star Core City could not stand idle. The Star Core Shield above the city burst with infinite starlight, and a colossal Star Spirit emerged from it. With the Power of Domination and the Law of Light swirling around it, the Star Spirit Dominator crossed millions of kilometers in just a breath and appeared near the Starry Sky Dragon Shark.
Without a word, the Starry Sky Dragon Shark launched an attack. Vast amounts of Domination Energy surged as it collided fiercely with the Star Spirit Dominator.
Song Chi’s group of four wasn’t distracted by the raging Domination battleground. As the Star Spirit Dominator was drawn out of Star Core City, the four exchanged a tacit glance. Jing Ji and Jing Hu once again emitted beams of Mirror Light, this time targeting the [Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong] and [Red Flame Boiling Sea].
