Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 608 - 321: [Spirit Beast Secret Realm]
The luminance of this formation’s light screen had already dimmed to the extreme, but Song Chi recognized it immediately.
The reason being, in his previous life, he had been an avid fan of fantasy xianxia novels, and had imagined protective formations like the Sect-protecting Formation and Spirit Gathering Formation numerous times, so he subconsciously blurted it out.
As his gaze swept over the faint light screen before him, Song Chi noticed that compared to the torch warship’s surface energy shield, this formation’s light screen took on a hemispherical shape, relying on the ground’s inscribed formation base to protect the unknown space within, as it had done for tens of thousands of years.
Even now, though it had dimmed to the utmost, he could still feel the tremendous pressure emanating from it.
The reason he hadn’t detected it earlier was that the formation’s light screen was in a hidden state; after it was activated by the Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines, the indescribable pressure began to spread.
Enveloped by this pressure, even with the barrier of both components—the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield and Neutron Star Core Armor—inside the warship, Song Chi still felt as if his body became more than twice as heavy.
Now that his Guidance Technique had reached Third Rank, this doubling of gravity was negligible, but the focus was never about the gravity itself!
The key actually lay in the formation’s light screen itself.
Mere traces of might that had scattered were still able to penetrate through the silver energy shield and red warship armor, both enhanced to Fifth-Rank Level, and reach inside Cangqiong, meaning the true rank of the formation’s light screen in front had to be at least of the Sixth Rank Level.
Furthermore, this was after it had already been greatly weakened, so one could only imagine just how terrifying the rank of this unknown formation was at its peak. Your next read awaits at novelbuddy
Recalling all Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines, Song Chi activated Cangqiong’s main and secondary cannons.
Was it just his overthinking, or was the unknown formation truly formidable? Taking action to probe it would reveal the truth.
Sword Light Phantasms, Electromagnetic Thunderballs, Soul-Extinguishing Beams... a variety of attacks struck the dim light screen one after another, causing ripples of varying strengths to emerge on its surface.
But even these attacks, almost all of which possessed Fifth Rank might, failed to cause significant damage to the formation light screen - the incredibly dim light screen showed no signs of collapsing.
Song Chi could only make some basic conjectures from the subtle changes in the light and shadow.
"What can be ascertained now is that the attacks can indeed weaken the might of the formation light screen, though the effect is hard to define; it would require a lengthy period of attrition..."
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
"Secondly, the formation light screen has at least Sixth Rank Peak energy level, which means that the attacks from the Shadow Breaker Cannon can accelerate its weakening."
As he pondered, the attack from Cangqiong did not pause. Given the Rank of the formation guarding it, the items inside couldn’t possibly be simple.
According to clan records, a Silver Miraculous Item had once been found in the Dustless Sect Ruins, and that was just what was known openly; there might be even higher ranked items hidden there.
At the bow position, the two main cannons were continuously gathering light; suddenly, Song Chi’s gaze shifted as the radar screen showed multiple warships rapidly approaching the Dustless Sect Ruins.
His mind racing, Song Chi weighed whether to continue.
After a while, he voluntarily stopped the attack and turned the warship toward the area where the Red Curio had been previously located.
Looking back, as Cangqiong ceased its attack, the dim formation pattern continued for about several dozen seconds and then vanished into the void once again, as if it had never appeared.
Witnessing this, a look of ’as expected’ appeared in Song Chi’s eyes; he was not at all surprised.
He had previously guessed that the formation likely had a hiding feature; otherwise, no matter how strong its defense was, after being explored by the various powers of Chenxing Principality over a dozen times, it could not have persisted to this day.
Since breaking off from the Immortal Realm Continent, God knows how many years had passed, and because of the lack of maintenance, the might of all the formation light screens had long since been reduced to a fraction of their original strength. It would not be too difficult to eradicate the remaining might with joint efforts.
Thus, only if the formation had special hiding abilities could it have been preserved till this day.
As for the Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines, it was probable that they had detected and triggered this formation light screen’s existence due to their proficiency in spatial power.
Without the barrier of the formation light screen, Cangqiong encountered no further incidents, and it did not take long for Song Chi to collect the Red Curio detected by the Peeping Spirit Eyes.
Unfortunately, it could not be converted into warship components and had to be placed in the Oddity Exchange Shop later.
After obtaining the Red Curio, Song Chi did not activate the Mirage Transformation Pearl of Mirage Dragon. He could detect the movement of the approaching warships through the radar from the very beginning. Since the others had already noticed the presence of Cangqiong a long time ago, activating the "Mirage Shadow" feature now would seem rather like deceiving oneself.
As time passed, it was several hours later when four cruisers appeared in Song Chi’s field of vision.
"Lu YuanKong and Lu Chuan of the Golden Horn Lu Clan, and two legitimate descendants from the Li Clan, it turns out to be them..."
Upon recognizing their identities, Song Chi appeared somewhat surprised, yet also found it reasonable.
After all, there were already rumors that the Li Clan was supported by the Golden Horn Lu Clan, and now it seemed those rumors were likely true.
"But what are they doing together at the Lichen Sect Ruins? Such an obvious joint appearance doesn’t seem to be without purpose!"
Mulling over this, Cangqiong had already received a series of beeps indicating a communication request.
Once the communication was established, the projections of four individuals promptly appeared before Song Chi.
