Global Era of Star Trekking

Chapter 1673: Chapter 820: Breaking Through to Myth Again (Part 2)

Even with three promotion opportunities, he still did not have much confidence.

Rather than waiting for another failure this time and then using Torch Fortune Blessing on the third try, wasting 1% promotion success rate for nothing, it’s better to bet everything on this second attempt.

What Song Chi and Ferdinand didn’t know was that as the entire portion of Torch Fortune belonging to Ji Heng was injected into the Profound Yellow Red Yu, the promotion success rate of this superdimensional mother ship began to soar.

40%

45%

50%

...

Until finally, the promotion success rate broke through 60%, and the entire Profound Yellow Red Yu ship body emitted a brilliant glow at the peak of the Original Energy Tide.

In the distance, inside the two floating warships, the breaths of Song Chi and Ferdinand almost came to a halt as well.

Although it was not their flagships that were being promoted at the moment, it concerned the future of the entire Torch Civilization. As one of the peak rulers of the Torch Human Civilization, everything here was inherently linked to their fate.

Until a certain moment, a sharp grinding sound suddenly came from the distant Profound Yellow Red Yu ship body—its hull was slowly expanding.

"Success!"

"The Profound Yellow Red Yu has been promoted to a Mythical Immortal Ship!"

Usually dignified, the Torch Human Emperor now laughed loudly without regard for his image.

Seeing the somewhat uncomposed Emperor Ji, Ji Heng below, Song Chi and Ferdinand’s eyes were also filled with joyful satisfaction.

Yet neither of them responded. Instead, they simultaneously activated the Blink Device on their warships.

When the two warships reappeared, they were already at another prime Origin Tide bathing spot on the Shenxia Continent.

"Greedy Wolf, quick!"

Hearing Ferdinand’s call, Song Chi reacted even faster, quickly deploying everything he had prepared in advance.

As these resources were integrated, the Warship Promotion Task Panel before him continued to change.

[Warship Promotion Task (Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong)]

[Current Promotion Success Rate: 66.00001% (Initial 0.00001% + Bathe in Ninth Rank Chaos Demon Ape Blood 8% + Bathe in Ninth Rank Shi Clan Blood 5% + Bathe in Ninth Rank Abyss Flame Demon Blood 1% + Bathe in Ninth Rank Ashen Flame Dragon Blood 1% + Tenth Rank Evil God Blood 15% + Nine-Turn Chaos Fruit 2% + Red Demon Stone 5% + Ninth Rank Chaos Blood Organ 7% + Ninth Rank Peak Dominator Source Blood 3% + Tenth Rank Holy Angel Blood 1% + Special Resource Formula 10% + Bathe in Star Continent Original Energy Tide 8%)]

...

Seeing the value of 66% on the promotion task panel, to say he was satisfied would not be accurate. Based on Song Chi’s previous promotion experiences, usually without an 80%, or even 90% success rate, he would never casually attempt the promotion of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong.

But there was no other way. First, he was psychologically prepared. After all, he had just passed eight thousand years old, and had only been promoted to Galaxy Captain for just a few thousand years. If he could accumulate for a few thousand or even over ten thousand more years, he was confident he could boost the success rate above 80%.

Secondly, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong is now a Star River Ship, and the difficulty of a Star River Ship advancing to a superdimensional mother ship is well-known. An 80% success rate might be possible with effort, but a 90% chance was virtually impossible, unless he had unconditional support from a superpower like the Four Great Empires of Torch.

Clearly, no matter which point, under Song Chi’s current circumstances, none were possible, so he could only gamble.

Of course, it wasn’t entirely a gamble. At least the [Time Chess Board] on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong had not been used; he had two attempts.

Even if both attempts failed, Ferdinand aboard the [Heavenly Light] would directly utilize [Time Source Crystal], this rare super resource, to cool down the mirror image [Time Chess Board], giving the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong a third promotion opportunity.

A base 66% promotion success rate, plus three tries mean that realistically, the overall success probability far exceeds expectations.

However, if Song Chi indeed used the third promotion chance, the [Time Source Crystal] consumed would need to be repaid later, as it belonged to the assets of the entire civilization.

Not only Song Chi but also Ji Heng, who had used it previously, would also need to compensate in kind.

As time passed, the vibrations of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s hull continued.

Clearly having just occurred earlier, the situation felt exceedingly elongated to Song Chi himself.

Their gaze was consistently focused on the hull of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, quietly waiting for the final outcome to arrive.

The ship’s hull trembled violently amid the energy tide, and the law patterns on the hull surface wriggled as if alive.

Song Chi seemed able to clearly discern the screeching coming from the ship’s hull— that was the feeling of tearing when the hull was forcibly transitioning.

"The hull structure is starting to reorganize!" Ferdinand suddenly exclaimed, a hint of excitement surfacing in his eyes.

It was visible that the armor of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong was constantly rubbing away, revealing the inside of the Torch Ship Body shimmering with ghost light.

This was the process a Torch Warship would undergo when successfully advancing, indicating its hull was on the verge of expansion.

At this moment, the cold sweat in Song Chi’s palm finally began to recede, for the 66% success rate, though not low, still had one-third chances of sinking.

However, fortunately, things did not develop in the worst direction.

Song Chi even had rather unexpected surprises.

He thought he would at least use the "Time·Retrospect" feature once, but for the first time in over eight thousand years, he successfully advanced at once. It was undoubtedly excellent news.

Looking at the front of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s hull, which was constantly expanding and extending, there was uncontainable excitement in Song Chi’s eyes.

Even though, after successfully advancing to the Ninth Rank in the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, he no longer worried about the subsequent Guidance Technique breakthrough to the Ninth Rank, compared to the Power of Mythical Status, which could only be obtained in the market, whereas outside has a strict time limit on ruin market projections, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong was his genuine external military deterrence.

Now the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong advanced to a superdimensional mother ship, the significance for him was self-evident.

As time went on, the scale of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong’s hull became more exaggerated, spreading outwards with it was a unique domain force field.

Song Chi knew clearly, this was the superdimensional force field unique to a superdimensional mother ship.

Why is the Ninth Rank Torch Warship referred to as a superdimensional mother ship?

It’s because of this layer of superdimensional force field, which not only could reduce all unit volumes entering the field to its maximum ten-thousandth but also completely eliminated the manned restrictions of the Torch Warship, allowing all living beings to freely enter and exit the superdimensional mother ship’s cabin.

Under these two points, a Ninth Rank Torch Warship inherently gained terrifying carrying capacity, with a ship length exceeding one billion kilometers, along with comprehensive volume compression on foreign objects; this undoubtedly marked an extreme surge in a Ninth Rank Torch Warship’s loading potential.

On this premise, each Ninth Rank Torch Warship invariably became the premier mother ship container, carrying ample supply resources, and a competent elite fleet, transforming directly into a moveable space battlefield base capable of free celestial navigation and shuttle.

Thus, the name superdimensional mother ship ultimately derives from this feature.

In the past twenty thousand years, the Torch Humanity unfolded one expansion war after another externally in this manner, among which the most renowned on the Xian Qin Dynasty’s side was the Star River Series Expedition.

Before Song Chi had time to anxiously examine the detailed attribute changes on the finally promoted Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, the five-colored Torch Seed in his mind suddenly trembled, and news from Emperor Jiang was actively transmitted.

After logging onto the Torch Network and seeing Emperor Jiang’s message, Song Chi’s eyes focused.

"Coordinates (XXXX, XXXX, XXXX), the situation is urgent. Come quickly!"

Not hesitating further, he swiftly boarded the warship and instantly used the "speed" effect of the [Purusa Zen Seal] to fully charge the "Red Vault Jump" feature of the [Red Vault Jump].

In just a moment, the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong swiftly vanished into the heavens, along with it the [Heavenly Light].
