National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 877 Chaotic Situation

"But before that, it is best to be cautious and proceed slowly."

Song Chi's mind raced, and he made his decision.

He did not immediately begin the next round of refining, but instead focused his mind on the two core knowledge inheritances of wizard civilization that he had just acquired.

Even though the original manuscript copies of the "Eternal Tower Meditation Method" and "True Explanation of Elements" are missing the mythological parts of the tenth and eleventh orders, their value is still extraordinary.

His divine sense probed into the ever-changing elemental crystal, and a torrent of information instantly flooded into Song Chi's sea of ​​consciousness.

That was the original research manuscript of "The True Solution of Elements", which not only contained the essential analysis of basic elements such as earth, fire, water, wind, light, and darkness, but also the exploration trajectory of rare elements such as space, time, life, and death.

The wise wizards of the Tower of Truth preserved their most intuitive and original insights and conjectures about the laws of the universe in a way that was almost like "traces of the Tao".

This is not a systematic textbook, but an exploratory process full of trial and error, verification, overturning and rebuilding. Its value is even more precious than the final perfect theory.

Because it presents a real, traceable, and spiritually practicable path to transcendence!

Song Chi was completely absorbed in the experience, as if he were witnessing firsthand how a glorious civilization of witchcraft and magic gradually analyzed the world, manipulated its laws, and ultimately embarked on a magnificent journey to seek the truth.

After an unknown amount of time, he slowly withdrew his divine sense, his eyes filled with amazement and a sense of accomplishment.

"As expected of a dominant civilization with a history of over millions of years, traversing the shattered star sea, its profound knowledge and extraordinary spirit of exploration are truly admirable."

With a sigh, he quickly left the market and returned to the Dragonspine Continent. He placed this wizarding inheritance deep in the family's secret vault. If the family ever needed to carry out plans such as civilization inheritance or exile, this extraordinary wizarding inheritance would definitely have to be carried along.

……

Two thousand four hundred and ninety-eight years after the Origin Star separated from the Chaos God Continent, in the Human Emperor City of the Chaos God Continent.

Deep within the Emperor's Palace, three figures sat in different directions, and in the very center of them, a giant light screen image was floating.

kill!

Guard them, absolutely do not let them in.

Bloodline Divine Power, Mountain-Splitting Fist Imprint!

……

The image projected on the screen was clearly a fierce battle of siege and defense of a city.

Looking at the familiar figures of the Rift Mountain Clan gathered on the devastated city walls in the scene, Song Chi, who was on the right side of the hall, frowned deeply.

However, Jiang Yuan, who was in the center, spoke first.

"This image is a real-time monitoring view of [Rift Mountain City], which is 30,000 light-years away. If nothing unexpected happens, [Rift Mountain City] should have fallen during this period. After Rift Mountain City, the direction in which these five allied mythological alien legions advance will most likely be our [Human Emperor City]."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three people in the hall grew even more somber.

As far as they knew, this advancing force, composed of five mythical alien legions, included as many as four eleventh-tier mythical units and a total of twenty-one tenth-tier mythical units.

Beneath the myth, there are nearly ten thousand ninth-tier overlords, and more than ten million ordinary legion members of the seventh and eighth tiers, a truly terrifying lineup.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to advance unimpeded. Even [Splitter Mountain City], another top-tier Chaos City, only lasted for less than a century under their full-scale attack.

It should be noted that although the Rift Mountain Clan is not considered a particularly strong clan among the many peak clans of the Chaos Divine Continent, it still has three tenth-order Rift Mountain Clan myths in charge. In addition, with the top-tier Rift Mountain Ancestral City as its backing, it is equivalent to three pseudo-eleventh-order myths.

Even so, Rift Mountain City only lasted for less than a century, which shows just how astonishing the combined offensive strength of the five alien legions was.

After a silence of about several dozen breaths, Ji Heng finally broke the silence.

"At this rate, this combined force will reach the location of the Human Emperor City in just one to two hundred years!"

“It’s not enough. The preparations we’ve made so far are far from sufficient. Rift Mountain Ancestral City is an old-established Chaos City that has stood tall in the Heavenly Ape Star Realm since the multiverse era. Their foundation is only stronger than that of our Human Emperor City. We must do something more.”

Upon hearing this, the three people in the hall exchanged a glance. Then, with a thought, they activated the highest authority of the [Primitive Flame Seed] and silently sent out several messages.

Soon, several more figures entered the Emperor's Palace.

The Immortal Qin Divine Dynasty's Prince Xiangri Yingwei, the Holy Temple Federation's ninth-tier superdimensional captain Wilson Aclemon, the Big Dipper Star Lord of the Big Dipper Seven Stars Palace, the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce's leader, and almost all the major forces of the Xin Huo Civilization were present.

After Song Chi and the other two recounted the key points of the matter, while the crowd below pondered, Jiang Yuan spoke first:

"Now is a critical moment for the survival of my civilization, and as the ruler of the Divine Xia Dynasty, I will set an example first."

As he spoke, he gently waved his hand, and a slight spatial ripple swept by. When everyone's gaze settled on his right palm, a crystal-clear spiritual fruit appeared in his hand.

"The twelfth-tier [Golden Apple], I obtained this fruit by chance during an exploration of an alien star field 150,000 years ago. For more than 100,000 years, it has been kept as one of the treasures of my Jiang clan. Now that the situation is critical, let me use it to upgrade one of the two [Great Walls of Civilization] to the seven-colored quality!"

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the others around them immediately sharpened.

As early as when the exploration of Origin Star ended, the two [Civilization Great Walls] had been transferred to the Chaos God Continent. Now they have become two other solid barriers outside the four walls of the Human Emperor City. However, although two Golden Apples had been used before, they are still only of five-color quality. Although their defensive strength is not weak, it is still far inferior to that of seven-color quality.

The 12th-tier Golden Apple before us can upgrade one of the two Great Walls of Civilization to a seven-colored quality, which will undoubtedly further enhance the defensive capabilities of the Human Emperor City.

Just as everyone was inwardly shocked, Song Chi seized the opportunity and spoke up right after Jiang Yuan:
"My Dragon Spine Song Clan has only been established for a short time and has limited resources. However, not long ago, I obtained a few super immortal pills from the Lord of the Heavenly Market."

As he spoke, he gently waved his hand and tossed out three [Primordial Chaos Limitless Pills].

Each family also had dedicated personnel stationed in the Zhutian Market, so they had naturally heard about the [Hun Yuan Wu Ji Pill]. When they saw Song Chi casually toss out three pills, everyone's faces lit up with joy.

Even though they had already learned from the "Lord of the Heavenly Market" that the [Primordial Chaos Limitless Pill] had no effect on the advancement of the Firewood Warship, it did not diminish the [Primordial Chaos Limitless Pill]'s appeal to everyone in the hall.

Aside from the Dragon Spine Song Clan behind Song Chi, which of the families present wasn't an established power with a history of over 100,000 to 200,000 years? Quite a few of them had ninth-tier enslaved creatures under their command.

The Fireship is unusable, but these ninth-tier enslaved creatures can.

Song Chi saw the excitement in the eyes of everyone in the hall. Although his face showed no abnormality, he was also overjoyed.

Why risk exposing your identity by taking out this [Primordial Chaos Pill] at this moment?
Isn't the point of this to allow each faction to try and cultivate a few mythical-level enslaved creatures before the war begins?
With the added strength of the [Human Emperor City] itself, these will be crucial forces in defending the city. "Greedy Wolf..."

Suddenly, Jiang Yuan spoke up.

After a pause, he continued:

"Can you get more of this Primordial Chaos Pill from the Lord of the Heavenly Market?"

Now that he had already proactively exposed this matter, Song Chi naturally had fewer reservations and nodded directly, saying:

"Sure, but regarding the price..."

He thought about it and decided not to offer any discounts, otherwise it would be too obvious.

It's still a wisp of seven-colored fire seed + 10kg of time source crystals + 30 portions of mythical souls, exchanged for one [Primordial Limitless Pill].

"Price is no problem, Tanlang, get me one!"

"These are the Seven-Colored Flame Seed and the Time Source Crystal... My Yanhuang Consortium also needs one."

……

In a short period of time, Song Chi received more than fifteen orders.

He wasn't surprised by this. Although the Fire Spirit Civilization had only recently joined the ranks of the dominant civilizations in the Shattered Star Sea, the Fire Spirit warships' unique interstellar exploration system allowed them to randomly explore the vast star sea with the Fire Spirit Ancestral Domain as their backing. Over hundreds of thousands of years, the resources they had acquired were no less than those of established dominant civilizations that had been around for millions of years.

After accepting these dozen or so orders, he did not rush back to the market, but stayed in the Emperor's Palace. It was not only Jiang Yuan and him, but also representatives of various forces after him, who all offered up their long-held trump cards. For the future survival of the Torch Civilization, all forces were making selfless contributions.

After Song Chi produced three [Primordial Limitless Pills], causing a sensation, the atmosphere in the Human Emperor's Palace became increasingly tense, but it also ignited the determination of all major forces to work together to overcome difficulties.

Seated on the left, the ever-silent and dignified Prince Xiangri of the Immortal Qin Dynasty, Ying Wei, slowly rose. He was dressed in a black prince's crown robe, embroidered with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and the state, and his aura was as deep as the sea.

His gaze swept over everyone in the hall, and he said in a deep voice:
"His Majesty Emperor Jiang and Vice Star Lord Tanlang have set an example for us. Our Immortal Qin Ying Clan has continued for hundreds of thousands of years, protected by the flame of civilization. At this critical moment for the survival of our civilization, how can we be afraid to protect ourselves and hide our secrets?"

After he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared in his palm, and a fruit that was very similar to the one held by Jiang Yuan appeared before everyone's eyes. This fruit was filled with a pale golden glow and had natural dragon patterns formed on its surface.

Its powerful energy and rhythmic fluctuations were even slightly stronger than Jiang Yuan's.

"This is a [Twelfth-Order Ancestral Dragon Golden Apple], born from the golden apple mother tree within a nearly destroyed cosmic secret realm, nurtured by His Majesty, the Immortal Qin Ancestral Dragon. Its efficacy surpasses that of ordinary golden apples. I offer it to aid another [Great Wall of Civilization] in its ascension to the Seven Colors, forging an unbreakable barrier of my flame!"

A collective gasp filled the hall. Two twelfth-tier golden apples meant that the two Great Walls of Civilization outside the Human Emperor City would be upgraded to the legendary seven-colored quality.

Its defensive capabilities will reach an unimaginable level, enough to withstand the onslaught of mythical units and remain unmoved.

Jiang Yuan, Song Chi, and Ji Heng exchanged glances, all of them able to see the surprise and excitement in each other's eyes.

Soon, under the immense energy infused by the two twelfth-tier golden apples, the two towering [Great Walls of Civilization] outside the Human Emperor City, which encircled the entire megacity, erupted with earth-shattering light.

Countless mysterious runes lit up from the base of the city wall, rapidly spreading to the top. The originally colorful radiance began to sublimate to the extreme, and finally solidified and condensed into a seven-colored divine light containing the meaning of immortality and eternity. Like two rainbow barriers that stretched between heaven and earth, it exuded an absolute defensive aura that made even mythical creatures tremble.

With the Immortal Qin Dynasty's masterpiece as a precedent, other major powers held nothing back and generously contributed.

Captain Wilson Aclemon of the Holy Federation stepped forward, holding a cube made of pure light energy in his hands, within which was sealed a huge heart that beat constantly and seemed to be made of pure holy light.

"This is the [Mythical-grade Heart of the God of Holy Light], which was discovered in the Heavenly Realm by a core exploration fleet of my Aklemon family."

Although not a complete eleventh-tier divine heart, its core still contains nearly inexhaustible holy light energy and powerful regenerative rules. It can be embedded into the underground energy core of the [Human Emperor City], significantly increasing the city's overall energy reserves and recovery speed. Furthermore, it can activate a [Holy Light Protection] domain covering the entire city, possessing a strong restraining effect against dark and death-based alien races.

The Lord of the Big Dipper in the Big Dipper Hall, an ethereal old man dressed in a star robe, waved his sleeve, and seven cold stars flew out, forming a mysterious Big Dipper array in the air.

"This is the complete array plate and base of the [Big Dipper Demon Suppression Array]. When its power is fully unleashed, it can draw upon the power of the ancient Big Dipper. If driven by a mythical unit, it can even suppress an eleventh-tier mythical powerhouse for a short time. I wish to place it at key nodes within the city to link it with the two Seven-Colored Great Walls, thereby enhancing the overall defense and counterattack capabilities."

The head of the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce, a woman with graceful bearing, captivating eyes, and a powerful aura, chuckled and took out a fox-tail-shaped jade pendant that emitted a strange fragrance and a hazy pink glow.

"My Qingqiu clan is not wealthy enough to compare with your twelfth-tier Starry Sky Fruits and Mythical Hearts. This [Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's Blessing] jade pendant was left behind by a former Hunyuan Golden Immortal of our clan. Placing it in the city can greatly increase the morale and mental resistance of all friendly units within the city, and has a very low probability of trapping the attacker in an illusion. It may be a surprise attack that can win at crucial moments."

Following closely behind, major powers such as the Yanhuang Consortium and the Tianying Tan Clan also made their moves.

The Yanhuang Consortium donated a piece of [Five Elements Chaos Qi], which can be integrated into the core array of Chaos City, giving the city's defensive rule shield the ability to transform and eliminate five elements attacks, greatly enhancing its resistance to elemental attacks.

The Sky Eagle Tan Clan produced a damaged [Ancient God Puppet]. Although it was slow to move and could only be used once, it could unleash terrifying physical destructive power at the peak of the tenth rank for a short period of time after activation, making it a powerful weapon for defending the city.

……

One by one, rare treasures and strategic items that would normally serve as the foundation of a clan and trigger bloodshed were taken out and integrated into the defense system of the Human Emperor City.

Under the guidance of Jiang Yuan and Ji Heng, these treasures from different forces and with different attributes were perfectly integrated.

The entire Imperial City resembled a sleeping behemoth, rapidly becoming armed to the teeth. The city walls grew stronger, the energy veins became more powerful and dazzling, and the light of various offensive, defensive, and auxiliary rune arrays shone and disappeared in every corner of the city.

As the crowd inside the hall watched the rapidly transforming and strengthening phantom of the Human Emperor City reflected back on the light screen, their heavy mood eased slightly, replaced by a surge of fighting spirit and ever-growing confidence.

Jiang Yuan surveyed the entire audience, her voice firm and resonant:
"Gentlemen, in the face of this crisis, our Fire and Fire Civilization is united as one, with a common will and a strong defense. With this formidable fortress and our united front, what are we to fear, even if we are surrounded by powerful enemies and besieged by mythical forces?"

"I will make the Imperial City the burial ground of those five alien legions, and let the name of my Fire Civilization resound throughout the entire Chaos Divine Continent!"

Upon hearing this, all the powerful figures in the hall straightened their bodies, their eyes burning with unwavering determination, and responded in unison:

"We are willing to live and die with the Imperial City, to pass on the torch, and to ensure that civilization never perishes!"

A boundless fighting spirit and determination soared into the sky, seemingly unrestrained even by the dome of the Emperor's Palace.

However, among these countless figures, Song Chi was not present. Long after all the representatives had offered their treasures, he had hurriedly returned to the Zhutian Market and used the seven-colored fire seeds and time crystals he had obtained to quickly refine the [Primordial Limitless Pill].

Reaching the ninth rank and becoming a mythical being is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Now, with only a little over a hundred years left before the alien forces advance, we must seize every moment.

The sooner these [Primordial Limitless Pills] are delivered to the various forces, the higher the chance that the Human Emperor City will receive support from mythical enslaved creatures when it faces siege.
