Global Era of Star trekking

According to the Song family's data archives, the detailed civilization classification in the Shattered Starry Sea is divided into Low Level Civilizations, Intermediate Civilizations, Advanced Civilizations, and beyond that are Overlord-Level Civilizations.

As previously mentioned, the division between Low-Level Civilizations and Intermediate Civilizations lies in whether there is a combat unit of at least Fourth Rank Level suppressing the civilization's fate. Civilizations below Fourth Rank, from First to Third Levels, all belong to the ranks of Low-Level Civilizations.

And the division between Intermediate Civilizations and Advanced Civilizations hinges on the presence of Seventh Rank Level combat units.

Below Seventh Rank Civilizations, those from Fourth to Sixth Levels are considered Intermediate Civilizations.

That is to say, the Seventh Rank is the watershed between Intermediate Civilizations and Advanced Civilizations, which also highlights the gap between a Silver Quality component and a Red Quality component.

If the rarity of a Red Epic Relic is 100, then this Silver Miraculous Item is at least 1000, or even higher.

Sigh! Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire

Exhaling deeply, Song Chi suppressed the pounding of his heart and forced himself to calm down.

Even though he had learned of the existence of this Silver Miraculous Item, the undeniable fact was that he could not yet get his hands on it.

Therefore, it was still too early to celebrate.

"No, I must get my hands on it as soon as possible, this is the first time the whereabouts of a Silver Miraculous Item have been discovered, absolutely no other accidents can occur!!"

In a brief moment, Song Chi had made up his mind.

Guaranteeing his own safety, he must acquire that Silver Miraculous Item at all costs, and as soon as possible.

But then came the problem; wanting the Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines to advance to the Guardian Leader's quarters ahead, even if they were enhanced to lv49, it would be difficult to achieve. It would require at least a Fifth Rank.

Thinking this, Song Chi couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

Fifth Rank, this was easier said than done. At the very least, his Seed of Torch had to be upgraded to Orange Quality, and just this one point was extremely difficult.

To upgrade the Purple Seed of Torch to Orange, what was needed was an Orange Top-quality Fire Source UpRank. He had never even seen this level of Fire Source UpRank in the Family Merit Hall's 50–59 floors, which speaks to its scarcity.

Not to exaggerate, but to obtain an Orange Top-quality Fire Source UpRank, it might be very difficult within one or two years.

Deducing this time frame, Song Chi's heart sank instantly.

Waiting so long, who knows what might happen afterward?

One must know that there were not only him as an outsider on this Super-Giant Flagship. High-Rank Void Demons were not few in number, and in one or two years, who could guarantee that they wouldn't discover this place?

Mulling it over, Song Chi's thoughts were racing, and he soon thought of a method.

If he wanted to make it to the Guardian Leader's quarters without his Seed of Torch advancing to Orange Quality, there was only one way, and that was the [Enslavement Medal].

The [Enslavement Medal] component had already been enhanced to Fourth Rank. If there was a true Fourth Rank Level enslaved creature to carry the effect of "Enslavement Mark: Frenzy," then it could reach Fifth Rank Level in a short period of time.

And, as it happened, he had two Fourth Rank Level Void Demons in hand. Using one of them for this task was more than appropriate.

Although once Enslavement Mark: Furious Trait was used, death was certain, Song Chi did not feel it was a loss to exchange one Fourth Rank Lifeform for one Silver Quality Strange Object; on the contrary, he considered it a huge win.

"Let's do it this way. The ensuing task is to acquire Titanium Crystal, Law Stone, Third Rank, and Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin, these four items, as soon as possible. Strengthen the component from Chicang's No. 004 Breeding Secret Realm to Fourth Rank, unlock the [Silver Apple Mother Tree] as well as the two Void Demons' seal..."

Having made up his mind, Song Chi once again fixed his gaze on the corridor ahead, the Three-Eyed Divine Guard·Guardian Leader's room, then no longer contemplative, he recalled the remaining two exploring Soldier Figurines and started to fully unload the mineral resources from rooms 2 and 3.

Five days later, the more valuable resources from the two Mineral Storage Rooms were all taken into the Ruins Market and then transferred into the Cultivation Secret Realm.

Seeing this, Song Chi did not linger any longer, controlling the 35 Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines to withdraw from the corridor, preparing to continue exploring other rifts in the warship's hull.

"Master, the family... calls! "

The sudden, intermittent Mind Sound Transmission from Tuogu Hong caught Song Chi off guard and disrupted all his subsequent arrangements.

Onboard the Cang Qiong, Song Chi immediately canceled the Brainwave Imprint and also recalled the 35 Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines remotely.

Within just tens of minutes, the Cang Qiong returned to the giant asteroid core space. After ordering the Half-Step Fourth Rank Humanoid Alien Race about some matters, he used a component of the [Holy Cross Beacon] to set a new Pathfinder Mark.

Having done all this, he didn't even have time to rush to the two Soul Spirit Clan members to turn them into worshiped creatures of the [Totem Spirit Column] before he directly used the Ruins Market to return to Bailing Continent.

Bailing Continent, Myriad Spirits City, Mechanical High-Rise.

Tuogu Hong quickly recounted the situation.

"Grandfather and eldest uncle both came over?"

Listening to Tuogu Hong's explanation, Song Chi was full of doubt. According to what Tuogu had said, it seemed that nothing out of the ordinary had happened in the Bailing Starfield; it was his grandfather, Song Mingsong, who had summoned him.

"Isn't grandfather busy hunting the Alien Race? How come he suddenly came to Bailing Continent?"

With doubts in mind, Song Chi hurriedly went outside.

Soon, he found his grandfather and the others in a building that resembled a city lord's estate in Myriad Spirits City.

As soon as he entered, Song Chi's heart tightened slightly.

Because at this moment, his grandfather, eldest uncle, second uncle, as well as his father, all four of them were conspicuously present. Such a gathering didn't seem like a small matter.

"Grandfather..."

After exchanging greetings all around, Song Chi quieted down, believing that his grandfather would provide an answer.

Song Mingsong and his three sons exchanged glances before speaking solemnly:

"Little Chi, the family has released news; the struggle for the Seventh Sequence will soon begin. This sequence struggle is divided into three stages. The first stage will start in one month, and all candidates must gather at the family side!"

Upon hearing the words "sequence struggle," Song Chi subconsciously relaxed. He had initially thought it might be some bad news about the pulse, which made him somewhat nervous.

Now that he heard it was just a family sequence struggle, he instinctively let his guard down.

Song Chi was quite confident in the current combat power of the Cang Qiong and felt that victory for the Seventh Sequence in his family was assured.

It wasn't that he was underestimating anyone else, but the configurations of the Cang Qiong indeed gave him the confidence not to fear any peers of the same age.

Moreover, the family's selection for the sequence was not random. They had restricted it to those under the age of forty-five. Among the candidates of this age, there might be Third Rank Level clansmen, but there would definitely not be any Fourth Rank. This was another significant reason for Song Chi's confidence.

"Grandfather, I understand!"

"By the way, what's the success rate of the Furious Lion now?"

He had spent a total of five months in that ancient stellar battlefield, plus the previous more than two months, meaning that almost eight months had passed since the Furious Lion started its warship advancement mission, leaving less than four months remaining.

Song Mingsong smiled and said:

"Not bad. During this time, your eldest uncle and I have cleared two Third Rank civilization star domains. The success rate has now officially broken through 40%, and the Earth Attribute Law Crystal and Fourth-Rank Life Crystal have been collected too. It's just the Ten Thousand Year Pure Yang Stone that's missing. Subsequently, we should be able to exceed 55%."

Hearing 40%, Song Chi nodded slightly and then added after thinking:

"Grandfather, I also have a Fourth Rank lifeform corpse here..."

As he spoke, he retrieved the Fourth Rank Void Demon corpse from the Cang Qiong.

Seeing this, all four people in the room were surprised, but they all tacitly refrained from asking further questions.

At the same time, Song Mingsong shook his head and said:

"Each warship can only fuse with one drop of Fourth Rank lifeform primordial blood when advancing to the Fourth Rank!"

PS: These two chapters are a mini-climax, written at a time when this book has reached an all-time high in readership. Yet, some readers have said I'm dragging the story out, which made me lose some confidence, boo hoo hoo!!
