National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 901 [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array] and [Eight Mysterious Transformation Technique]

Tianxu Divine Court, Tianxu Continent, Dragon Spine Divine Mountain Reception Hall.

The Lord of the Big Dipper was dressed in a star robe, with starlight faintly flowing around him. His psionic energy, which had reached the ninth-level senior level, added to the powerful aura he unconsciously exuded. However, at this moment, he could not hide the eagerness and anticipation between his brows.

He stood quietly in the center of the main hall, respectfully awaiting Song Chi's arrival.

Before long, the Lord of the Big Dipper felt a spatial fluctuation, and then a figure quietly appeared above the main hall.

"Lord of the Big Dipper Palace greets His Majesty the Song Emperor!"

Song Chi nodded slightly, indicating that there was no need for further formalities.

"Is there something you need to see me about?"

Upon hearing this inquiry, the Lord of the Big Dipper bowed again, adopting an extremely humble posture:
"That's right. We apologize for disturbing the Emperor. It is because the Beidou lineage has a request to make of Your Majesty. We hope Your Majesty will forgive us."

With a flick of his sleeve, Song Chi lifted the Lord of the Big Dipper with a gentle force: "No need to be so formal. We've known each other for a long time, so feel free to speak your mind."

The Lord of the Big Dipper took a deep breath and looked intently at Song Chi:

"In that case, thank you very much, Your Majesty. It is like this: after thousands of years of planning, my Big Dipper Palace has exhausted all its resources to finally enable one of its ninth-order enslaved creatures to reach the peak of the ninth order. However, it is too difficult for it to break through to the mythical order. This time, I have come only to ask for a [Primordial Limitless Pill]. I hope Your Majesty will be generous in bestowing the pill upon me!"

At this point, the Lord of the Big Dipper bowed again, his tone extremely earnest:

"This pill is crucial to whether our Beidou lineage can maintain its position as an immortal giant and preserve its more than 200,000-year heritage. We humbly request Your Majesty's permission. Our Beidou Seven Star Palace is willing to pay any price."

Song Chi remained expressionless, having already anticipated this.

However, although he had the intention to bestow the pill, it was by no means a free gift. He pondered for a moment and slowly said:

"As you know, the [Primordial Chaos Pill] is not easy to refine. Even with the extraordinary abilities of the Lord of the Heavenly Market, it is by no means something that can be refined casually; it consumes a great deal of resources..."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the Big Dipper Palace is well aware of this!" the Big Dipper Star Lord hurriedly replied. "When we came here, we discussed with the Palace Masters and Star Lords that we are willing to offer two items in exchange for the divine pill!"

He flipped his palm, and first appeared a palm-sized array plate, its entire body seemingly cast from stars, engraved with the Big Dipper pattern, and with faint images of mountains and rivers floating and sinking.

The array plate emitted vast and mysterious spatial fluctuations, with multicolored light flowing around it, and its grade had clearly reached the upper level of the color category.

"This is one of the most precious artifacts of my Big Dipper Palace, the [Qiankun Big Dipper Floating Land Array Plate]. My palace is willing to offer up its only mirror opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Song Chi waved his hand and brought the colorful artifact to his front, quickly learning all its attributes.

[Rare Object: Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate]

[Quality: Color/High-end]

[Convertible to: None]

【Unique Effect: {Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array}】

[Note: This array plate, once the protective array of the ancient Immortal Realm civilization [Nine Heavens Qiankun Immortal Sect], possesses formidable defensive capabilities.]

……

{Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array: Based on the merged star sea floating land and using the floating land shield as a reference, it automatically evolves a double Qiankun array that merges with the original floating land shield. This Qiankun array's defensive level exceeds that of an ordinary floating land shield by five times, its shield recovery speed is doubled, and its shield energy value is doubled.}
After looking at the attribute panel in front of him, Song Chi's eyes shone brightly. Without a doubt, although this rare item could not be converted into a shipboard component, its value was no less, and even surpassed most shipboard components of the same level.

Subsequently, by simply integrating it into the core of the Tianxu Continent's origin, the outer energy shield of the Tianxu Continent can be directly transformed into the [Qiankun Grand Array], whose power will far surpass that of the past.

Moreover, once the Tianxu Continent is upgraded to the Star Continent, the boost it provides will be even more terrifying, making it capable of withstanding the powerful attacks of several eleventh-tier mythical beings without any problem.

This first treasure alone was enough to tempt Song Chi, but soon the Lord of the Big Dipper took out another light scroll that was neither gold nor jade and was shimmering with countless tiny runes.

"The second item is the top-tier core differentiation technique of the floating continent origin passed down by my Beidou lineage—the [Eight Mysteries Transformation Technique]."

"This method can draw upon eight profound powers to divide the core of the floating continent into eight parts, while simultaneously nurturing eight rare artifacts from the star sea. Although it is not as powerful as the legendary supreme secret technique that can divide the nine directions and ten realms, it is still rare to find in the star sea and far surpasses ordinary division techniques."

Song Chi's gaze swept over the [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate] and the light scroll containing the [Eight Mysterious Transformation Techniques], and his heart stirred slightly.

If it were just the [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate], he might still hesitate a bit, since it's only offering one mirror opportunity, not directly trading with this rare item. He would still need to personally contribute a high-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone] later.

However, the subsequent [Eight Profound Transformation Technique] completely eliminated his hesitation, and he immediately agreed to the deal.

For over ten thousand years, thanks to the convenience of the Heavenly Market, it has successively obtained many secret techniques for differentiating the core of the floating continent's origin. The one currently used by the Heavenly Ruins Continent is the [Five Qi Dividing Light Technique] obtained in the Origin Star Operation. The core of the floating continent's origin has now been divided into five, replacing the previous [Three-Part Returning to Origin Method].

Even so, it still seemed somewhat inadequate.

Including the initial [Dragon Whale Palace] and [Shedding of the Sky-Devouring Python], he subsequently obtained a seven-colored [Candle Dragon Axe] and a five-colored [Floating Light and Shadow Platform] from the All-Heavens Market and the Origin Star Operation. Now, there is only one spot left.

Clearly, the Five Qi Dividing Technique, which can only divide into five parts, is gradually becoming insufficient to meet the needs. For the Dragon Spine Song Clan to develop and for the Tianxu Continent to advance, a stronger secret method for differentiating the origin of the floating continent is the most fundamental foundation.

In comparison, the [Eight Mysterious Transformation Technique] can be divided into eight parts, which is enough to raise the overall foundation of the Song family to a new level, making it of extraordinary significance.

The Big Dipper Palace has truly shown its utmost sincerity this time.

Song Chi remained silent for a moment, and just when the heart of the Big Dipper Star Lord was in his throat, he finally nodded slowly.

"The Star Lord is very sincere. These two items are indeed of great use to my Song family. Very well, the Big Dipper Palace and I have a deep connection. This pill is yours."

After saying that, a flash of light appeared at his fingertips, and a warm and smooth jade-like pill bottle appeared. The bottle was sealed, but it still exuded a misty purple aura and a refreshing pill fragrance, which made people's minds and souls clear. It was the [Primordial Chaos Limitless Pill].

Upon seeing this, the Lord of the Big Dipper was overjoyed. His hands trembled slightly as he accepted the elixir bottle. After carefully examining it and confirming it was correct, he was so excited he could hardly contain himself, repeatedly saying:

"Thank you, Your Majesty! The Big Dipper Palace will never forget this kindness!"

He carefully put away the elixir bottle, and then without hesitation presented the [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate] and the light scroll containing the [Eight Mysterious Transformation Techniques].

Once Song Chi retrieved a high-grade [Chaos Mirror Stone] to complete the mirroring of the [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate], the Beidou Star Lord did not linger any longer. After thanking him solemnly once more, he hurriedly took his leave, his figure transforming into a streak of starlight and disappearing into the sky above the Tianxu Continent.

Holding the two objects in his hands, Song Chi immersed his consciousness in the light scroll, carefully comprehending the profound mystery of the [Eight Mysteries Transformation Technique].

After a long while, he opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming. "Eight Profound Evolutions, Origin Differentiation... truly exquisite, far superior to that [Five Qi Dividing Light Technique]."

His gaze shifted to the Heavenly Ruins Continent beneath his feet, and as he thought of the three-colored [Soul Devouring Altar] he had just acquired and his subsequent plans, a slight smile curved his lips.

……

In the core space of the Tianxu Continent, above the primordial light cluster of the floating continent, the mythical immortal ship Tianxu Cangqiong silently floats.

Gazing at the core of the floating continent's origin light cluster below, which beats like a heart, Song Chi could clearly sense that every moment, boundless power was gathering from the outer starry sky, and then being transformed by this core of the floating continent's origin into a vast power that sustained the entire Tianxu Continent and allowed it to gradually grow.

Around the core light cluster of the Floating Continent's origin, five slightly smaller, differentiated light clusters, each with different attributes, slowly circled like satellites. Each cluster carried one of four items: the Dragon Whale Palace, the Shedding Skin of the Sky-Devouring Python, the Candle Dragon Axe, and the Floating Light and Shadow Platform. Together, they formed the cornerstone of the Heavenly Ruins Continent's powerful foundation.

Soon, wisps of mythical psionic energy surged from the Sky Ruins Skyship, continuously spreading towards the core light cluster of the floating continent's origin below.

"The eight mysteries evolve and return to their origin..."

Inside the warship's main control room, Song Chi sat cross-legged, his consciousness completely absorbed into the light scroll in his hand that contained the [Eight Profound Transformation Techniques].

The divine soul power of an eleventh-order mythical level being so immense that it almost instantly comprehended, analyzed, and mastered all the key points of this profound and mysterious technique.

He raised his hands, his ten fingers dancing like butterflies among flowers, outlining countless intricate and ancient runes. These runes drew upon the purest primordial power of the floating continent deep within the earth's core, and further drew upon Song Chi's own vast and boundless mythical power.

Om-!
The entire Earth's core space trembled slightly, and the enormous core light cluster of the floating continent's origin shone brightly. The originally stable structure of the [Five Qi Separation Technique] began to be forcibly dismantled and reconstructed by a higher-level force.

This process was not a brutal destruction, but rather, under Song Chi's extremely precise control, the original five differentiated cores were used as the "cornerstone" and "node" of the new structure, guiding more primordial power to converge and split.

"Xuan Yi, establish the foundation!"

"Mysterious Two, Evolution!"

"Xuan San, split the light!"

……

Song Chi chanted incantations and mantras. With each word he uttered, a rune containing the profound meaning of the "Eight Mysteries" was injected into the primordial light cluster, and a new differentiation core began to gradually gestate and take shape.

Thanks to the eleventh-order mythical power of the myriad worlds within his body, the process was far smoother than he had imagined. The surging primordial power was as docile as a lamb under his will, precisely constructing a brand-new framework.

About an hour later.

The energy fluctuations within the local core space gradually subsided, and the central primordial light cluster had undergone a dramatic transformation.

The original five differentiated light clusters disappeared, replaced by eight new differentiated cores that were more solid, yet whose aura was no weaker than the previous five, and even slightly surpassed them.

They revolve around the main source of light in some mysterious trajectory, their energy interconnected, forming a more complex, stable and powerful cyclical system.

The Eight Mysteries Transformation Technique has been completed.

The maximum capacity of the Tianxu Continent's core of origin has been increased from five to eight, which means that at least four more powerful interstellar artifacts can be integrated in the future, and the continent's potential and foundation have achieved a qualitative leap.

Song Chi slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of eight-colored light disappeared from his eyes.

He looked at the eight orbs of light below with satisfaction. Without pausing, he flipped his palm, and the [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Array Plate] that had just been mirrored appeared in his palm.

His gaze locked onto the fifth, which was temporarily vacant among the eight core differentiations, and he flicked his finger.

hum!
The ancient star array disc transformed into a stream of light, shooting out of the warship and disappearing into the ball of light.

In an instant, the entire Tianxu Continent trembled slightly, and the outermost energy shield of the continent suddenly lit up with a dazzling five-colored radiance. Countless star trails and phantom images of mountains and rivers flowed and flickered on the surface of the shield. A phantom image of the Qiankun Grand Array, which was several times thicker and tougher than before, slowly emerged and perfectly merged with the original floating continent shield.

The [Qiankun Beidou Floating Land Formation] is complete!
From then on, the defensive power of the floating shield of the Tianxu Continent increased dramatically, and even ordinary half-step eleventh-tier mythical beings would probably find it difficult to shake.

After completing this step, Song Chi's movements did not stop.

With another thought, a small drop of [Time Source Liquid], radiating a rich fluctuation of the laws of time, appeared and was precisely sprinkled onto the differentiated light cluster that contained the [Shedding of the Sky-Devouring Python].

A miraculous scene unfolded: the surface of the [Heavenly Python's Molt] shimmered with light, and the cooldown time that would normally take a long time to recover was rapidly washed away and reduced to zero under the power of the [Time Source Liquid].

"The Metamorphosis of Myth Begins!"

Song Chi let out a low shout, activating the active effect of [Shedding the Skin of the Heavenly Python].

A mythical wave containing the power of "transformation and renewal" and "ascension" enveloped the already prepared tricolor artifact, the Soul Devouring Altar.

The dazzling light enveloped the Soul Devouring Altar, and the patterns on its surface became more complex and profound at a speed visible to the naked eye. The material seemed to have undergone countless forgings, and its essence had undergone a leap.

In just over ten breaths, the light dissipated, and the originally tri-colored [Soul Devouring Altar] had been upgraded to a five-colored wonder.

But it's not over yet.

Following the same method, Song Chi used a small amount of Time Source Liquid again to wash away the tens of thousands of years of cooling that the Devouring Python's molt had just generated, and then activated the Mythical Molt effect for the second time.

This time, the target is the equally important [Miracle Cloning Pod] on the Sky Ruins.

Under the infusion of mythical power, the [Miracle Cloning Pod] was successfully promoted to five-color quality as expected.

"In this way, it will be done."

Looking at the brand-new [Soul Devouring Altar] and [Miracle Cloning Pod] floating in front of him, radiating multicolored light, Song Chi revealed a satisfied smile.

The five-color quality [Miracle Cloning Pod] already possesses the ability to perfectly clone the five-color quality [Soul Devouring Altar].

This means that he will soon be able to apply the powerful effects of the Soul Devouring Altar to the mirror warship of the Sky Ruins through the Mirror Image component.

At that time, with the combined destructive power of the [Blood Erosion Annihilation Cannon], the long-range capture of the [Void Warehouse], the confinement of the [Immortal Binding Rope], the detection of the [Eye of Truth], and the counter-damage of the [Thorn Scale], the combat power of the Mirror Battleship will surely surge once again.
