Chapter 44: The Cang Qiong with Greatly Changed Attributes (Seeking Follow-up Reads on Wednesday)


    “`


    The resources required to enhance the Goldrock Ship Armorponent, besides Electrum, were exactly the same as those needed for the Fire Peony Soldier Figurine Tree from before.


    Atst, Song Chi spent 295 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin and 81 tons of Electrum to enhance the Goldrock Ship Armor all the way to lv10.


    In addition, during the enhancement process, he added 2 tons of Phantom Crystal at every level, using up a total of 20 tons. These Phantom Crystals were obtained from the previous ying of the Gold Devouring Vine, initially amounting to 110 tons, leaving 90 tons remaining after the enhancement.


    After adding these Phantom Crystals, the subsequent Cang Qiong’s Warship Armor would carry a certain degree of invisibility, making it harder to be detected and tracked by alien species in the Alien Star Domain.


    The reason why he didn’t use all the crystals was naturally because the Quality of the Goldrock Ship Armor was too low. Given the white Quality of the ship armor, it wouldn’t be long before Song Chi would rece it, so there was no need to use all of the Phantom Crystals on it.


    Goldrock Ship Armor lv10


    Quality: White


    Consumption: 10/s


    Defence: 230


    UpRank Requirement: 10 strands of Floating Land Origin (First Rank), 2000 Energy Points, 20 tons of Electrum.


    Having enhanced the Goldrock Ship Armor and seeing that there were still some enhancement resources left over, he also enhanced both the Spectral Main Cannon and the Patrol Radar to lv10.


    Spectral Main Cannon lv10


    Quality: Colorless


    Consumption: 40 per shot (Spectral Energy Points)


    Might: 99


    Charge: 4s; Buffer: 6s


    UpRank Requirement: 100 strands of Floating Land Origin (Zero Rank), 1600 Spectral Energy Points.


    ……


    Patrol Radar lv10


    Quality: Colorless


    Consumption: 5/s (Spectral Energy Points)


    Detection Range: 1 light-minute


    Precision: 30


    Advanced Requirement: 140 strands of Floating Land Origin (Zero Rank), 2000 Spectral Energy Points.


    After enhancing these two standardponents to this point, they were essentially at their peak. Song Chi did not n to expend more resources on these two any further since they were soon to be reced. Currently, they were just serving as a transition.


    Assessing the remaining funds in hand, besides the 2000 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin set aside in advance, as well as six Deep Water m Pearls and the Third Rank Mermaid’s Tear, there were only a few leftover misceneous resources unused.


    Thinking back to the grand feeling of having over ten thousand strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin at hand not even an hour ago, it wasn’t long before nearly ten thousand strands of these resources werepletely depleted. Song Chi couldn’t help but feel somewhat emotional.


    The speed of advancement for the Torch Human Civilization’s Torch Warship system was indeed extremely fast, but this was undoubtedly built upon the premise of consuming massive amounts of resources. The entire Torch Human Civilization was like a gargantuan gold-devouring beast, incessantly seizing vast resources from the Shattered Starry Sea every moment.


    Of course, this was not exclusive to Torch Human Civilization; in the Shattered Starry Sea, which middle and high-level civilization wasn’t the same?


    After his contemtion, Song Chi willed it, and immediately the entire properties of Cang Qiong appeared before his eyes.


    After more than a month of strengthening and UpRanking, Cang Qiong had undergone tremendous changes in its overall attributespared to when it was first integrated.

    [Name: Cang Qiong]


    [Model: Torch-Spectral Shuttle]


    [Level: lv9]


    [Base Components: White Torch Warship Body lv9, Spectral Main Cannon lv10, Spectral Secondary Cannon lv0, Goldrock Warship Armor lv10, Spectral Engine lv19, Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator lv15, Patrolling Radar lv10, Spectral Cultivation Room lv0 (8/8)]


    [Additional Components: Fire Peony Soldier Figurine Tree lv15 (1/6)]


    [Spectral Energy Pool: 9000/9000]


    [Materials: First Rank Floating Land Origin 12 strands, Zero Rank Floating Land Origin 2215 strands, Mercury Crystal 50 tons, three hundred-year-old Deep Water m Pearls 3 pieces…]


    …


    After closing the properties panel of Cang Qiong, Song Chi took out a three-hundred-year-old deep water m pearl.


    Spectral energy gathered in the palm of his hand, and soon after, the surface of the m pearl ced in his hand began to tremble lightly, and as time passed, the frequency of trembling became more and more astonishing. To the eye, it seemed as if it would burst apart in the next moment.


    However, that was not the case. When the trembling reached a certain frequency, it gradually subsided. When the pearlpletely stopped trembling, its surface suddenly showed innumerable fine cracks, and it ultimately turned into a pile of powder.


    This was certainly not some trick, but rather an indication that Song Chi’s control over spectral energy had reached an extremely fine level: he had infused the pearl with spectral energy without damaging its external appearance and thenpletely pulverized it from the inside.


    Taking out an intermediate body tempering potion, Song Chi carefully poured all the powder into the potion, and then gently shook it to mix.


    Indeed, this was the usage method for deep water m pearls. When taken with a body tempering potion and coupled with an All-Attributes Cultivation Room, the effect would be particrly astonishing.


    Quickly arriving at the All-Attributes Cultivation Room, Song Chi swallowed the intermediate body tempering potion in his hand, then stood with his legs firm and his hands spread open, palm up, entering the Spectral Energy Guidance Technique practice as swiftly as he could.


    As for the “Tears of the Mermaid” stored on Cang Qiong, it obviously wasn’t convenient to give it to mom now. He would wait until he returned from his next Alien Star Domain exploration. By then, presenting it would be perfectly timed with the exploration.


    If he brought it out now, he would find it difficult to exin, though if he didn’t want to talk about it, mom and dad wouldn’t pry, but finding a more justifiable moment was always better.


    Inside the All-Attributes Cultivation Room, having just begun practicing the standard Guidance Technique, spectral energy within the enclosed space began to converge rapidly. Despite being somewhat mentally prepared, Song Chi was still startled by the terrifying speed of cultivation.


    With the operation of the Spectral Energy Guidance Technique, he felt as if the spectral energy from outside was like homing swallows, not needing his full effort to draw it in, but actively converging into his body.


    If the speed of using an all-abilities cultivation room under normal circumstances was rated as 6, then his current cultivation speed was 60. The Guidance Technique that had just broken through less than twenty days ago had already made significant progress.


    For a moment, Song Chi was somewhat captivated; this rate of cultivation was like something out of a dream.


    After a day and a night, Song Chi exited his state of cultivation. The elerated effect of the three-hundred-year-old deep water m pearl had ended.


    Stepping out of the All-Attributes Cultivation Room, Song Chi’s spirit submerged into his own body, and soon he ascertained the results of this session of cultivation. Just this one day of cultivation was equivalent to two months of training. The break through the lv6 that originally required about half a year now only needed four months.


    Excitement filled Song Chi’s heart; the results were truly astounding.


    After the excitement, he quickly calmed down, well aware that this had a lot to do with his first use of the m pearl for cultivation support. The subsequent uses would definitely yield diminishing returns.


    Clenching his fists, Song Chi felt a hint of regret.


    “This is just an intermediate body tempering potion. If there were an advanced body tempering potion to use with it, the results would surely be even better.”


    Despite feeling some regret in his heart, Song Chi also understood that this was merely wishful thinking. Advanced body tempering potions were not the same as the middle-low level ones; they too were ssified as strategic resources by the Chenxing Principality and were not easily distributed. Only the nobility of the principality had fixed yearly quotas. Ordinary citizens could not even dream of obtaining them.


    At the entrance to the Ruins Market, Song Chi’s figure gradually became illusory, and soonpletely vanished within the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.


    He was very tempted to use up all the five remaining deep water m pearls, but he had already stayed in the Ruins Market for two days and two nights. If he did not go out to show his face, it was likely that his mom would forcibly break into his room soon.


    In the living room, just as Song Chi stepped out of the bedroom, he unexpectedly found that dad was at home today. He sat on the sofa, eyes fixed on the star chart projected by themunication bracelet in his hand, pondering something.
