National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 845 [A Great Start]

As the Wizard of Mel's Rules finished speaking, the teams from the four civilizations began to move swiftly.

The hatch of the Shenxia Jiuli slowly opened, and millions of fire-bringing warships poured out like a swarm of bees, forming a tight formation in the chaotic void.

Around the Black Skull Eternal Space Fortress of the Wizarding Civilization, countless Wizarding spaceships lit up with runic light.

The countless mechanical entities under the command of the Genesis Mechanical Civilization activated their energy matrices.

The bronze warships of the Diman tribe emitted long, drawn-out horn sounds.

Jiang Yuan stood in the main control room, her gaze piercing through the porthole, staring at the swirling vortex tunnel.

He took a deep breath, turned to Pei Dinan, Ying Yi, and Song Chi, and said:

"As planned, I will stay behind to guard the passage. You will lead your clones into the Origin Star. Remember, your primary task is to collect as many treasures as possible. Don't be afraid of conflicts with other races, except for the Titan civilization, of course!"

The warship clones were destroyed, but their main bodies were all inside the Shenxia Jiuli, just outside this Origin Star. Once the cooldown period was over, they could be summoned again immediately. Compared to the Origin Star's long stay of tens of thousands of years, the short cooldown period of the warship clone parts was insignificant.

As for the Titan civilization, although it is undeniable, it is the ultimate source of strength for all the broken star systems in the current struggle for interests on the Origin Star.

It's fine to be enemies with any civilization or top race, but the Titan civilization is truly unacceptable, at least not the Fire Civilization, which has only recently become a hegemon.

Song Chi and the other two nodded:

"Don't worry, we know what we're doing."

……

Of the nearly ten million Fire-Bearing Warships, only a little over one-tenth were warship clones, less than a million in total.

Compared to the vast number of Flame Captains in the Flame Civilization, this number is almost negligible. However, there is no way to achieve this. Even though the Origin Star's own primordial position has reduced the suppressive power of the Chaos Divine Continent to some extent, it is by no means something that any warship clone can do to effectively explore the interior of a star from outside the Origin Star.

At the very least, it must be a unique orange-quality warship clone part, or it must be a red part. This is the biggest limitation in itself.

In addition, the other millions of warships are all the main body. These captains are either nearing the end of their lifespan or seriously injured for various reasons. In short, they all want to fight one last time.

It is conceivable that, without even needing tens of thousands of years, perhaps hundreds, or at most thousands, the number of these captains of the Torchbearer will be reduced by more than 90%.

It's a brutal number, but Origin Star is a place with both high risk and high reward. With such a terrifying mortality rate, the rewards are naturally beyond imagination. Hundreds or thousands of years later, at least a dozen or more Star Destroyer Captains, a handful of Galaxy Captains, and even Superdimensional Captains are not impossible among these captains.

"set off!"

As Jiang Yuan's voice rang out from the Shenxia Jiuli, nearly ten million warships roared to life, joining the other three races in a neat and orderly rush towards the vortex passage.

……

As the fleets of the four civilizations surged into the vortex passage like a torrent, Song Chi's true form sat cross-legged inside the cabin of the Shenxia Jiuli.

His eyes were closed, but a wisp of brilliant phantom energy flickered between his brows—his consciousness was using the [Mirror Image] component to cross the barrier of the original rules and remotely connect with the Sky Ruins Mirror Warship inside the Origin Star.

Because the vortex passage here was completely controlled by the four civilizations of the Fire, the Wizards, etc., the initial stage of entering the Origin Star was very peaceful and did not cause any chaos.

However, Song Chi was well aware that this was only temporary. As the four races slowly explored more distant areas, they would inevitably encounter other alien races, including descendants of bloodlines left on this origin star millions of years ago. At that time, conflicts would be commonplace.

The Sky Ruins had disappeared into the void from the very beginning. Spatial ripples flowed across its black and red hull. Under the cover of the level 110 replica of the [Three Realms and Five Elements Certificate], as long as it did not actively control the warship to appear, the surrounding beings of the four races would hardly be able to detect its existence.

Buzz!
Without lingering in the entrance area, the mirror warship roared to life and sped off towards the area closer to the star's surface.

Although the Origin Star is also filled with ubiquitous energy storms, many precious materials on the star's surface, including fragments of rules and treasures such as the true spirit of the ruler, are often carried into the sky by these energy storms, which can often reach the eighth, ninth, or even mythical levels.

However, it is certain that the further away from the Earth's surface the sky is, the smaller the chance of finding such resources.

Therefore, the area closest to the space exit is basically the main activity area of ​​those beings whose clones have limited control distance and whose strength is not strong. Song Chi would not compete with these people for this already small space.

[WARNING! Extremely high intensity energy storm detected!]

[WARNING! Storm energy level is rapidly increasing, please take shelter!]

[Warning! A large number of Overlord-level native alien beasts from the Origin Star are approaching...]

Amid a series of alarms, Song Chi, far away aboard the Shenxia Jiuli, revealed an excited smile.

Through the panoramic porthole, he saw this ancient world shrouded in chaotic mist and primordial rules—

The sky was blood red, and fragments of shattered land floated in the clouds;
The endless land below seemed to writhe like a living thing, occasionally spewing out colorful rays of light from the cracks that appeared.
The most awe-inspiring sight is a giant mountain range directly below: it is not made of rock, but of countless intersecting bronze swords, the blades of which are engraved with strange divine runes, each line of which seems to be breathing.

"Just as the records say, this Origin Star is full of treasures..."

Song Chi muttered to himself.

Putting aside everything else, just look at the colorful rays of light that occasionally burst forth from the surface of the starry sky below; each ray represents a newly born colorful mythical artifact.

As for the sword-shaped mountain range, the patterns that appear on it are patterns of rules. Although they are not complete "rules of the sword", as long as you get that small piece, the person who obtains it will immediately become a "sword path" prodigy of the river system.

As his thoughts raced, Song Chi quickly shook his head.

The surface of this Origin Star naturally has the most treasures, but they are not something he can currently target.

Generally speaking, that is the activity area of ​​all tenth-order mythical beings that enter the Origin Star.

Lower-level beings travel to the surface of stars?

Unless you are confident that you can conceal your presence from the perception of those mythical beings, you will only face a mortality rate ten or a hundred times greater than that of the heavens.

Of course, if the Origin Star is large enough, with a diameter comparable to the galaxy clusters in the Shattered Star Sea, you might as well try your luck and see if the surface area you choose is inhabited by mythical creatures.

Song Chi's idea is that when the [Mirror Image] is upgraded to the higher-grade color quality and can replicate the seven-colored parts, then the Mirror Battleship will have the confidence to explore the surface of the Origin Star.

Just as the warship continued to descend, suddenly, the giant sword-shaped mountain directly below began to tremble violently. The next second, a bronze sword light with a diameter of more than tens of light-years shot into the sky, cutting the chaotic mist in its path into a vacuum zone that stretched for hundreds of light-years.

"Scan that sword light!" Song Chi subconsciously gave the order. The replica [Eye of Truth] in the mirror warship Tianxu Cangqiong quickly activated, and soon the multicolored radar provided data that thrilled him:

【Name: The Origin of the Sword's Rules - Sword Light】

[Energy Level: Tier 11]

[Note: The primordial sword light carries a fragment of the rules of the sword, which is extremely valuable.]

"Fragments of the Sword's Rules?"

Song Chi's eyes burned with fervor. He suddenly understood why countless super powers across the myriad realms coveted this place—a mere, naturally erupting sword light carried within it a fragment of sword rules that was extremely rare in the outside world.

The treasures hidden within this origin star are truly beyond imagination.

However, no matter how much he envied Song Chi, he made no move whatsoever.

In that short moment, he detected several bursts of mythical aura, all clearly heading towards the fragments of rules within the sword light below.

The image of the Sky Ruins continued to fly downwards, but deliberately avoided the location of the sword light. In this way, the warship disappeared into the void and wandered around various parts of the sky.

"Ok?"

After traveling for an unknown amount of time, Song Chi, who had never relaxed, suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

On the radar image replicating the [Eye of Truth], a completely different energy spot suddenly appeared.

Thousands of years ago, he might have had a hard time noticing it, but after his trip to the Botian Ruins, he was extremely familiar with the Chaos Mirror Stone.

The energy dot appearing on the radar image at this moment is most likely a [Chaos Mirror Stone], and not even the lowest quality, low-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone].

Having confirmed this, Song Chi did not hesitate much. Layers of spatial fluctuations appeared on the hull of the mirror warship, and the next second the warship disappeared into the depths of the void in the original space.

Light-years away, when the mirror warship reappeared, it was found at the edge of a level nine energy storm, and in the eye of this energy storm was a familiar [Chaos Mirror Stone].

However, after Song Chi, two other ninth-tier alien races also set their sights on this mid-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone]. They had not discovered the mirror warship in its concealed state and were currently trying their best to break into the energy storm in order to seize the [Chaos Mirror Stone].

However, shortly after they entered the energy storm, the Chaos Mirror Stone, which was originally in the eye of the storm, suddenly disappeared into thin air, as if it had never existed at all.

"who is it!"

"Get out of here!"

Two ninth-tier alien races roared in anger, but the mirror warship Tianxu Cangqiong, the instigator, had already quietly left under Song Chi's control.

"【Void Warehouse】, remote acquisition effect, hey...it's really good!"

Inside the cabin of the Shenxia Jiuli ship, Song Chi chuckled to himself and muttered something, then added another sentence.

"A mid-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone], this is a great start!"

……

Ignoring the stares of those around him, he simply took out a [Market Walk Token], activated it, and quickly disappeared into the [Divine Summer Nine Li Ship].

"The warship clone is equipped with one, and I have another one myself? Greedy Wolf is such a bastard!"

"Alright, now I'm certain that Greed Wolf and the Lord of the Heavenly Market must have some shady dealings going on."

"I've heard that every member of the Song Clan of Dragonspine, above the rank of Dreadnought Captain, is equipped with a Market Token. They're incredibly extravagant!"

……

Song Chi was unaware of the outside discussions. His purpose in logging into the Heavenly Market was not only to directly take away the mid-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone] that the Mirror Warship had just sent into the market, but also to take a look at what kind of gains he had made from the market tokens that had been distributed in the short period of time.

Although the market already possesses the characteristic of "mind control," allowing absolute control over the market even from outside, controlling the mirror warship requires diverting most of one's mental energy. If one were to remotely investigate each of the thousands of token rooms within the market, it would undoubtedly accelerate the depletion of mental energy.

Therefore, it's more convenient for the real person to directly enter the market.

Moreover, being in the Void Market of the Heavens, with the blessing of the Void Market Mythical Status, does not affect the remote control of the mirror warship.

As Song Chi's figure solidified within the Heavenly Market, the entire market seemed to sense the arrival of its master, and the power of mythical rules in the dome automatically began to circulate.

He raised his hand and beckoned. The next second, a door on the fourth floor of the Market Inn opened automatically, and the [Chaos Mirror Stone] that had just been delivered to the Market flew into his palm.

"It is indeed a mid-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone]..."

As Song Chi ran his fingertips along the natural patterns on the stone's surface, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

A mirror stone of this quality can reflect the most exquisite mythical artifacts of the Three Colors. Even though he still has some in stock, its value cannot be ignored.

Whether used to mirror the three-color upgraded fire source or to mirror strategic-level color lower-level components, it will be excellent.

After putting away the [Chaos Mirror Stone], Song Chi's mind began to race and spin. The next second, hundreds and thousands of black and white split screens appeared deep in his mind, each screen corresponding to a real-time view of a token room.

"what?"

Another soft exclamation rang out as his gaze locked onto the market's seventy-second trading room on the third floor.

In the scene, a broken bronze plate is floating in the room. The patterns etched on the bronze plate are very ancient and simple, and it is obviously not an ordinary object.

In addition, room number 875 on the second floor of the inn, the "Market Gate Guest Room," now contains two rare artifacts from the Star Sea, one of which is a tricolor artifact.

There is also room number 2480, which contains only a ball of light. However, Song Chi knew that this ball of light contained nothing but a tenth-order mythical soul of astonishing value.

As he sensed the situation in these rooms, a smile flickered in his eyes.

In the end, he got a share of all of this.
