Chapter 640: Chapter 337: Return, The Doubts About the Primordial Secret Realm

Having confirmed that everything in the ruins had been completely scavenged, the two then piloted the warship towards the exit of the ruins.

However, before leaving, Song Chi did not forget to activate the “Peeping Spirit Eyes” feature, fearing he might have missed something valuable.

But there was no response; the Peeping Spirit Eyes did not detect the existence of any other Starry Sea Oddities.

It wasn’t embarrassing or anything; after all, it was just a casual attempt. What if something had been missed? It never hurt to confirm.

Outside the Fourth Rank Floating Land in space, Song Chi glanced at the Transit Star Map generated by the “Aurora Transition Device” and quickly looked away.

According to the star map, there were no other Intermediate or High Rank Floating Lands within nearly six hundred light-years; the highest was just a Primary Floating Land, and the rest were unranked and of little value.

…

“Ansewei, how is the situation in the surrounding Star Domains? Have you explored them?” he asked, though he didn’t hold much hope.

Ansewei in the White Rose shook her head.

“According to the results reported by my exploratory fleet, there are no Floating Lands above Third Rank within two thousand light-years. Those Low Rank Life Floating Lands only harbor some uncivilized floating land beasts, offering little mining value!”

Song Chi frowned.

“Then what civilization has exploited the resources of the floating land below?”

Ansewei clearly couldn’t provide an answer to this.

“Who knows? It could be some predacious civilizations, or even possibly some predecessors of our Torch Human Civilization…”

Song Chi smiled and shook his head, dismissing the thought.

Regarding this point about predecessors from the Torch Human Civilization that Ansewei mentioned, he didn’t quite agree. The possibility existed, but the probability was too low.

The Torch Human Civilization was indeed formidable, and the Torch Ship Captains were as numerous as stars, but compared to the Shattered Starry Sea, they were but a drop in the ocean, perhaps even less, making the chances of coincidentally encountering a Floating Land explored by a predecessor ship captain exceedingly slim.

From what he knew so far, the Shattered Starry Sea stretched endlessly. Even the ten Overlord Level Civilizations recorded by Torch Human Civilization, as well as all the Star Domains it had stepped into over three hundred thousand years, made up only a small part of it.

Like the ancient corpses around the Tri-Eyed Royal Dominator Flagship he encountered earlier, they were of a species never seen before, not even officially recorded by the Torch Human Civilization.

Soon, the intense sensation of weightlessness enveloped both warships.

Outside Chenxing Yang Continent, as Cangqiong and White Rose were about to part, Song Chi took the initiative to say,

“I should probably be leaving Chenxing Yang Continent soon!”

Ansewei seemed unsurprised.

“Returning to Dinghai Star Domain?”

“Yes.”

The two were silent for a while, then Ansewei changed the subject,

“In a while, the White Rose will start its promotion mission. How about it… would you come and support your sister?”

Hearing this, Song Chi didn’t hesitate.

“Just remember to send someone to notify me in advance!”

…

After the two parted, Song Chi didn’t return to Sky Rush Valley but directly headed towards Holy Star City.

Now that everything of relevance in the Duchy Capital Star Domain was essentially settled, it was time for him to return to Dragon Spine Continent.

Not to mention others, wasn’t it time to practice secret techniques? Shouldn’t he slowly plan to explore the Immortal Realm Continent Fragment? There was also the “Big Dipper Hall – Shaking Light Star Rank” that Yōran had given him, which was going to be activated in just over a year.

Thinking it through, there were still many matters waiting for him, leaving little time to stay in Chenxing Yang Continent.

Before departing, however, there were some matters he still needed to arrange.

Holy Star City, Star Street.

At the top floor of the Dragon Spine Shops building, Song Chi received a new batch of Strange Objects from Song Yufeng and handed over a large portion of Floating Land Origin in exchange, saying quietly,

“Uncle Song Yufeng, I’ll need you to continue looking after the acquisition of Strange Objects. However, the actual purchasing tasks can be left to the younger members of our family; you don’t need to busy yourself with this personally anymore. The market is running out of Strange Objects that can be converted into shipborne components, but the younger members can still handle it…”

Song Yufeng was quite pleased with being called “uncle” by Song Chi.

Who was Song Chi? He was the prodigy who had easily suppressed the Pseudo-Immortal Family’s legitimate line, his fame already widespread across the Chenxing Principality, making this title of “uncle” quite substantial.

“Your Highness, rest assured, I will handle this matter properly…”

Nodding, Song Chi quickly changed the subject.

“By the way, Uncle Yufeng, do you have any semi-automatic smart chips in our shops? Including fully automatic smart chips!”

Hearing this, Song Yufeng thought for a moment and replied after a few seconds.

“Semi-automatic smart chips are not a problem; they are abundant throughout the Torch Human Civilization Territory. However, fully automatic smart chips are a bit difficult; what level are you looking for?”

Song Chi knew that fully automatic smart chips also came in levels—Primary, Intermediate, High… The higher the level, the more powerful the computing capabilities of the chip. However, he didn’t know which level’s smart chip would be required for later enhancements of the “Dome Sky Brain System,” so he simply said,

“If possible, try to acquire a variety from each level!”

Song Yufeng shook his head quickly.

“Let’s do this: I’ll get you 100 sets of semi-automatic smart chips first and 50 sets of Primary fully automatic smart chips. As for higher-level ones, it’s unlikely we’ll get them soon. These chips are strictly banned from use within our Torch Human Civilization Territory, only large research institutions and technical departments of medium to large conglomerates ever use them…”

Song Chi slightly furrowed his brows, but he also understood that there was no helping the situation, and after receiving the 150 smart chips from Song Yufeng’s hands, he turned and left the Dragon Spine Shops building.

As for the chip issue that followed, he planned to inquire at both Elon and Goblin Luke in the Star Origin Empire, as only they might have high-rank intelligent chips at the moment.

After leaving the Dragon Spine Shops, he didn’t deliberately meet Wang Zhen. Although he had the Mirage Transformation Pearl of Mirage Dragon, meeting in person always carried a risk of exposure. Instead, taking Zhu Tian Ruins Market as a transit was much more convenient.

Now the Ruins Market itself was already at the Third Rank Level, and Wang Zhen himself was still stuck at LV39 with the Guidance Technique, also able to enter the Ruins Market with a Ruins Market Walking Rank.

Even after advancing to the Fourth Rank later, he could still enter the Ruins Market through a Third Rank Enslaved Species, thus indirectly contacting Song Chi without needing Song Chi to keep an Enslaved Species by his side.

Zhu Tian Ruins Market, Inn third floor, in a Market Walking Room.

Wang Zhen stood respectfully by Song Chi’s side, reporting various situations during this period.

Song Chi and Ansewei had spent quite some time in that Dome Sky Mechanical Civilization site, during which Wang Zhen had continuously been selling various war materials, amassing a large sum of money for Song Chi.

However, Song Chi’s current focus wasn’t on these Low Rank Floating Land Origins. He turned to look at Wang Zhen, scrutinizing him up and down a few times before saying,

“Leave the sale of materials to your Enslaved Species. You should focus on cultivating the Guidance Technique. The Yaohan Kingdom’s expansion war is approaching, and you need to advance the Guidance Technique to the Fourth Rank first, as that will increase your chances of survival in the upcoming wars.”

Saying this, Song Chi took out an Orange Energy Shield Component and four Purple Components from the Ancestral Torch and handed them to Wang Zhen. He also produced the corresponding Floating Land Origin, although he was short of Titanium Crystals himself and could only hope that Wang Zhen would procure them on his own. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Having lingered in the Chenxing Yang Continent for hundreds of years, Song Chi believed he must have special channels.

Previously, in that Dome Sky Mechanical Civilization site, besides obtaining Red Quality and Silver Legend Components, Song Chi had also acquired several Orange and Purple Components. It was just right to use a few now to further enhance the strength of Wang Zhen’s flagship.

As for why not more, it was unavoidable—there were elders and Song Ting in the family who needed them too.

After making arrangements and seeing Wang Zhen leave the Ruins Market, Song Chi had no intention of jumping back to the Dragon Spine Continent straight away. Instead, he directly activated the Spatial Anchor Point set in the Dragon Spine Continent, instantly returning from the outer space of Chenxing Yang Continent to 20,000 light-years away in the Dragon Spine Continent.

What he lacked most now was time, and he couldn’t care about anything else.

The moment Song Chi stepped out of his courtyard, the elders present were all visibly astonished.

“Little Chi, weren’t you still in the Chenxing Yang Continent? When did you get back?”

Faced with this spontaneous question, Song Chi merely smiled and did not reply.

In the manor where his uncle and aunt lived, as soon as Song Chi returned, most of the high-ranking members of the family quickly gathered.

However, Song Chi was slightly surprised that his grandfather, Song Mingsong, was not present. The [Furious Battle Mad Lion], located not far to the side on the Fourth Rank Floating Land Origin Eruption Eye, showed no sign of response.

That’s when his grandmother, Bai Xiuqin, said:

“Your grandfather is fully committed to cultivating the Guidance Technique. He wants to break through to the Fourth Rank before the kingdom’s expansion war begins, to comprehend the Laws and the family’s Inherited Secret Techniques!”

Realizing this, Song Chi did not disturb his grandfather but proactively handed over a Red Quality [Red Dome Escape] Component to his grandmother, instructing her to pass it on to his grandfather later.

When Bai Xiuqin received this Red Component, she was completely stunned—not because she was uninformed, but because Red Epic Components were too rare and valuable. Seeing Song Chi casually taking out one, she really hadn’t reacted immediately.

“Little Chi, what about your warship?”

Song Chi answered with a smile,

“Grandma, rest assured, I already have it equipped on my Cang Qiong!”

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuqin accepted the [Red Dome Escape]. Meanwhile, she couldn’t help feeling proud of her grandson’s rapid rise in power.

In just over twenty years, Song Chi had incredibly advanced his warship to an unbelievable extent, ranking high in the family sequence, and now even casually producing Red Shipborne Components. Such an act made her feel somewhat surreal.

Soon, father, mother, uncle, aunt, second uncle—almost all the elders in the lineage gathered together. Seeing that everyone was almost present, Song Chi asked:

“Mom, where’s Ting?”

Chen Lixia rolled her eyes, responding impatiently:

“Where else could she be? She’s sure to be wandering around Dragon Spine Continent with her friends.”

Song Chi fell silent, then without further delay, took out a large number of Purple and Orange Components.

Seeing so many high-quality Strange Objects, all the elders’ eyes widened.

However, Song Chi had not revealed everything yet; he had specifically reserved a few Orange Components for his own parents and Song Ting.

…

Inside the Clan Ancestral Hall on Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain.

The projection avatar of Song Xuancang looked down at Song Chi in the grand hall below, his eyes filled with deep satisfaction.

He had sent Song Chi to the Duchy Capital Star Domain to make the Song Family’s long-suppressed fame resound once again, and Song Chi had indeed delivered a perfect report card.

Effortlessly suppressing the Stark Family’s Legitimate Succession Sequence, supposedly killing the current third in the Stark Family sequence—these actions had fully exposed Dinghai Song Family to the Chenxing Principality, creating a positive ripple effect.

In just about a year, now numerous Intermediate Rank powers, seeking to join the Dinghai Song Family’s ranks for the upcoming expansive wars of the Yaohan Kingdom, had approached them, including several led by Fourth Rank Zhulu Warship Captains, which would greatly facilitate the Song Family in the future wars.

“Seeking an audience, is there something you need?”

Song Xuancang spoke with a gentle tone, smiling.

Taking this opportunity, Song Chi quickly said:

“Reporting to the family head, I have a question regarding the comprehension of Primordial Laws in the Primordial Secret Realm—is it true that every time, one can only comprehend for ten years, and afterwards, one must assimilate with the world for decades? I feel that this wastes too much time. Is there any way to extend the duration of comprehension in the Primordial Secret Realm? Or to expedite the assimilation with the Starry Sea Law?”

Seeing that Song Chi was asking this question, a hint of surprise flashed in Song Xuancang’s eyes from above the hall.

“You’ve already completed this time’s law assimilation?”
