Chapter 1213: Chapter 648: Invigorating_2
Speaking of this, Song Shiyuan paused for a moment, then his tone changed:
“Of course, the main point is that this ’Guardian – Azure Dragon’ feature can be replaced, just like the ’Angel King True Spirit Guard’ on Chi’s flagship, Yan’s ’Flame God Dominator True Spirit Guardian’, and the [Star Sea Stone Spirit Heart] component we obtained from a Seventh Level Floating Land of the Eight-Armed Snake Demon Civilization decades ago; its ’Stone Spirit Dominator True Spirit Guard’ can also achieve this.”
Song Shiyuan’s logical and well-reasoned explanation made everyone feel it was justified, and no one continued to dwell on this point.
However, Song Wujiang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up at this moment:
“If the binding restriction has been relaxed to four Great Ranks, then it’s not impossible to consider using the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] to carry this [Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map]…”
In the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, Song Chi’s eyes gleamed brightly.
Although he didn’t voice anything in the group chat, it was clear from the flickering light in his eyes that he had already considered this idea to some extent.
If a Star-Annihilating Starship could be bound, it would ultimately represent Eighth Rank Combat Power, how could he not have thought of it in advance?
However, it was clearly not that simple. If the warship to be carried was a Star-Annihilating Starship, then the bound Azure Dragon Warship must be at least a Third Rank Cruiser, and given the current size of the Song Family, the number of cruisers is just over thirty thousand, far from the minimum of one hundred thousand required.
As he was thinking, a response rang out in the group chat.
Song Shiyuan: “If the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] is to carry it, relying solely on the Song Family is obviously not enough, unless we bring in the Chigu Luo Family, Chenxing Clan, and Stark Family, and even that might not be sufficient; we’d need to also involve the Dongli Xiao Clan, but should we really expose the details of this [Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map] to these outsiders?”
“Although with our current strength, it’s not impossible to force them to cooperate, the problem is that the only binding condition for the Azure Dragon Warship is voluntary. Forcing them may cause unrest, especially if it happens during battle, it would be a catastrophic disaster.”
After this, Song Shixing also added a few points from his end.
“I very much agree with Shiyuan’s view, and let’s not forget, the [Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map] component attributes only suggest it’s possible to transcend ranks in battle. Its actual combat power is still uncertain, whether it can really contend with a being as extremely formidable as an Eighth Rank Snake Demon of the same rank.”
Moreover, as far as I know, the Chigu Luo Family seems to have already decided not to participate in frontline wars for the next millennium but to recuperate and build strength. Even if we bring in the Dongli Xiao Clan, the cruiser attributes will likely still be insufficient!”
The discussion lasted a long time, and by the time the final result was reached, several hours had passed.
In the group chat, Song Wujiang was making the final decision.
“Then it’s settled. Twenty years later, the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] and a few Fearless Ships will lead the fleet, taking half (five hundred thousand) of the family’s escort ships to the battlefield of the newly formed Tenth Route Advancement Fleet of the Divine Dynasty, where the [Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map] will be carried by Chi and Yan respectively!”
In response, everyone nodded in agreement, and there were no objections.
They were all familiar with the newly established Tenth Route Fleet, where the key point is that two Star River Ships are stationed in this newly formed fleet, significantly enhancing the safety of the advancement fleet, which is also why the Song Family chose to return to it.
Having confirmed this point, the group continued to discuss the items redeemed this time.
Apart from Song Chi himself, Song Wujiang redeemed the [Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map], Song Yan also exchanged for a [Nine Revolutions Spirit Divine Fruit] to prepare for the eventual upgrade of the [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea] to a Star-Annihilating Starship. Song Xingru exchanged for 4 strands of Silver Spark, along with a portion of [Star Spirit Liquid].
As for Song Shiyuan and Song Shixing, they exchanged for the same items, each obtaining an Eighth Rank Golden Apple + a portion of Star Spirit Liquid.
The Star Spirit Liquid was for their own use, while the two Eighth Rank [Golden Apples] were to repay the family. The same goes for Song Xingru; the significant gains they achieved in such a short time were mostly thanks to the [Dual Differentiation] component provided by Song Chi.
Even the younger generation like Song Chi could selflessly contribute to the family, so the older generation certainly couldn’t lag behind.
The offering of the two Eighth Rank [Golden Apples] made everyone face a difficult choice once again.
According to the group’s opinion, there are roughly two ways to use these two Eighth Rank [Golden Apples] at the moment.
First: Use them to evolve two strands of Silver Tier Upgrade Fire Source, transforming them into two strands of Gold Tier Upgrade Fire Source.
Second: Apply them separately to the [Original Core Stealer] and [Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring] components, evolving both into Golden Sanctuary Components.
Each of the two has its benefits; the first option naturally targets individuals—two strands of Gold Tier Upgrade Fire Source would undoubtedly provide the family with two more clan members possessing the Golden Torch Seed, which could further enhance the potential and combat power of their flagships.
The second option benefits the entire family; the [Original Core Stealer] needs no explanation if it’s upgraded to gold. Its efficiency in refining Floating Land Origin Cores would increase, accelerating the evolution of the Dragon Spine Continent and benefiting the Song Family’s future Floating Lands as well.
If the [Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring] is upgraded to Golden Sanctuary Quality, it could not only uninstall Black and below quality components without loss, but also far exceed 24 components after two rounds, providing higher assurance for clan members attempting upgrades in the future and boosting their confidence in advancing.
The second option eventually proved to be more popular.
Soon, both the [Original Core Stealer] and [Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring] were successfully upgraded, becoming golden components.
After that, the [Original Core Stealer] would be effective on Eighth Rank Starry Sea Floating Lands, no longer needing hundreds of years of meticulous preparation to extract merely a negligible trace of origin from the [Red Star Superdimensional Continent].
In comparison, the property changes of the [Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring] were more substantial.
Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring lv70
Quality: Gold
Features: All effect features doubled
Feature 2: Additional Solidification Slot +2 (1×2)
Feature 3: This component occupies a fixed slot number of 1
Feature 4: Extra upper limit for solidifying quality is +2 (1×2)
Feature 5: Component effectiveness doubled
Consumption: 200000/chance (Spectral Energy Points)
Effect: Applies a solidification effect to 28 specified {(12+2)×2} components, where, within the next 30 days, their enhancement level won’t reset, regardless of unloading. Maximum effects apply to Black (Silver+2) quality starship components.
Charge: 30s; Buffer: 480 hours
…
Everyone meticulously reviewed the component attributes, eventually smiling in consensus.
From the attribute description, it was clear that with the upgrade to gold quality, the [Tri-Eye Solidifying Ring] could still only solidify two rounds for warship upgrades, but the number of solidifications per round directly jumped from 12 components to 28.
This was only upgraded to the Seventh Rank; if it could reach the Eighth Rank, Song Chi estimated that it might solidify up to 60 components in two rounds, already capable of solidifying black components, a qualitative improvement.
Even the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong currently only loaded about eighty high-rank components, two rounds of solidification could practically unload all without loss, enabling the warships to upgrade without worry.
For those below, clan members could essentially unload all components in two rounds, suggesting more members would attempt upgrades in the future.
