    This also led to an increasing umtion of Zero Rank and First Rank Floating Land Origins in his possession after each Ruins Market transaction.


    For this problem, Song Chi had actually been considering and trying various solutions for quite some time.


    For instance, he was preparing to set up a dedicated Floating Land Origin exchange store in the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, to raise the exchange ratio a bit, so that he wouldn''t have to wait until the end of each Ruins Market to set up a stall for exchange, which should significantly increase the number of Second Rank Floating Land Origins he could trade for.


    Additionally, he inquired with his grandfather and father, they all said that when they return to their main family home, there would also be opportunities for such exchanges there.


    It is said that on the higher-ss Starry Sea Floating Lands, their Origin Cores can slowly nurture Low Rank Floating Land Origins into High Rank ones over time. However, this nurturing process is neither short nor can it handlerge quantities at a time, so the exchange amounts are likely not to be substantial.


    Lastly, Song Chi had already been converting these Zero Rank and First Rank Floating Land Origins into Starry Sea Oddities that couldn''t be transformed into shipborneponents, and then attempting to exchange or sell these Strange Objects at the Ruins Market afterward.


    However, this method involved unpredictable dys, and it was hard to quickly liquidate these purchased Oddities, so Song Chi did not dare to buy too many at once.


    He shook his head, pushing all these thoughts to the back of his mind, and at this moment, the [Maic Field Shield Generator] in the real-timemunication projection had been sessfully auctioned off. The final price disyed in the transmission was one Purple Quality transition device + 300 strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin.


    Following the sessful sale of the first item, the information for the second item soon emerged.


    It was also aponent of Purple Quality, but instead of an Energy Shield, it was a Main Cannon.


    In response, Song Chi appeared calm on the surface, but internally he was astonished at the scale of the Silver Spear Auction.


    "Surely all the items in this auction won''t be below Purple Quality?"


    Muttering to himself, he finally saw an item of normal appearance as the third item: a Blue Qualityponent. Although it was a Top Rank Blue Oddity with a special Feature, it was still Blue, not a Purple Component.


    In the following half hour, the Silver Spear Auction brought out more than fifty items, with the worst being Blue Top Rank Components.


    While there would asionally appear some special Enhancement Resources, they were also the type of resources that would increase the sess rates for First Rank and Second Rank Torch Warship UpRanks, so their value was certainly no less than that of Top Rank Blue Strange Objects.


    During this time, grandfather purchased a special resource called "High-Purity Sulfur Crystal," intended for grandma Bai Xiuqin.


    Besides that, uncle Song Shan made one purchase, securing a fist-sized piece of "Millennium Volcanic Magma Iron Essence."


    This Millennium Volcanic Magma Iron Essence is one of the several Enhancement Resources needed when a First Rank Torch Warship attempts to Advance to Second Rank; it was presumably prepared for big brother Song Qi in advance.


    Song Qi, who is now forty-four years old and had awakened the Seed of Torch for fourteen years, had reached the Peak of First Rank three years ago and was expected to attempt breaking through to Second Rank after further refining his gship.


    Besides these two asions, no one else actively bid on any items.


    From the side of the private room, Song Chi''s calm gaze narrowed slightly as he focused on a new item appearing in the real-timemunication projection.


    [Item Name]: Stealth Light tform


    [Item Attributes]:


    Stealth Light tform lv0


    Quality: Purple


    Feature: Stealth Trace


    Consumption: 10/s (Spectral Energy Points)


    Effect: Upon instation, a transparent Stealth Light Cloak will be generated automatically, hiding all light fluctuations within the cloak as long as the ship does not initiate an attack or is attacked.


    Charge: 60s; Post-Overload Buffer: 60 minutes


    UpRank Requirement: 7 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, 700 Spectral Energy Points, 7 Zero Rank Life Cores


    {Stealth Trace: Consumes 1000 Spectral Energy Points, the shipborne Warship will actively enter a Stealth state for 30 minutes with a priority of 400, firing or taking hits will exit Stealth mode, with a 24-hour Buffer.}


    [Auction Method]: Second Rank or above Floating Land Origins, same Quality special Components, Void Crystals, etc. are eptable.


    The reason he fixated on this [Stealth Light tform] as soon as it appeared was not because of Cang Qiong; although the "Stealth Trace" Feature was quite decent, the ce that needed thisponent the most was the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.


    The Ruins Market had already been strengthened to lv16, and it seemed just a few more times before it would Advance to Second Rank. To avoid the disruption caused by the First Rank UpRank, it was necessary to conceal the intense radiance emitted during the Great Rank UpRank, and this [Stealth Light tform] appeared to be a perfect fit.


    Leaning close to his father''s ear, Song Chi whispered softly:


    "Dad, I want this [Stealth Light tform]!"


    ```


    Song Chao nced at his son and did not ask further, only whispered softly,


    "How much Second Rank Floating Land Origin do you have?"


    Hearing this, Song Chi immediately took out all 674 strands of the Second Rank Floating Land Origin he had left.


    After receiving these strands of Floating Land Origin, Song Chao began to bid directly.


    [700 strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin!]


    [800 strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin!]


    Because the only value thisponent held in the eyes of the Torch Ship Captains was its "Stealth Trace" feature, as for the light-concealing brilliance, it was mostly non-essential. Therefore, the bids for this Purple Component were all in Floating Land Origin and no one was willing to trade a Purple Qualityponent of the same quality, effectively reducing the value of thisponent.@@novelbin@@


    Soon, Song Chao once again made a bid.


    [1400 strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin!]


    With this bid, there suddenly were no more follow-up bids.


    Secondster, a gentle female voice emerged from within the Song Family''s private box.


    "Congrattions on sessfully winning the 53rd auction item. The item will be delivered outside your box shortly, please be ready to sign for it."


    A few minutester, with the sound of a soft doorbell, Song Chao got up and went towards the box''s main door. Before long, as he returned, his hands held a cluster of purple brilliance—the [Stealth Light tform]ponent.


    Receiving theponent, Song Chi was extremely delighted, and with this, there would be no more concerns for him during the subsequent progress in the Ruins Market.


    Carefully storing theponent in the Ancestral Torch, Song Chi whispered to his father at his side,


    "Dad, wait for me for a few months, this—"


    Before he could finish, Song Chao''s eyes already narrowed. Seeing this, Song Chi quickly shut his mouth, no longer speaking of the issue concerning the more than seven hundred strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin.


    Time flew quickly, and another half-hour passed. As the ny-eighth auction item was bought, a line of text suddenly appeared on the real-timemunication projection.


    [The following is the first of thest two star items of this auction!]


    With the appearance of these words, the curiosity of all the Torch Ship Captains in every private box was piqued, their gazes were firmly fixed on themunicative projection ahead.


    The next moment, the breaths within all private boxes uniformly paused, then transformed into heavy gasps.


    It was the same inside the Song Family box, because the message of the anchor auction item appearing on themunicative projection was somewhat astonishing.


    [Auction item name]: Apocalyptic Annihtion Cannon


    [Auction item attributes]:


    Apocalyptic Annihtion Cannon lv0


    Quality: Orange


    Feature: Apocalyptic Annihtion Pulse


    Feature 2: Main Cannon might increased by 40%


    Consumption: 500/shot (Spectral Energy Points)


    Attack: 27


    Charge: 10s; Buffer: 60s


    UpRank Requirement: 10 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, 1000 Energy Points, 1 Heavenly Annihtion Crystal Stone

    [Auction method]: Third Rank or above Floating Land Origin,ponents of the same quality, specific enhancement resources required for a Third Rank Torch Warship to advance to Fourth Rank, etc. are all eptable.


    Upon seeing the attributes of the Apocalyptic Annihtion Cannon, an Orange Quality Shipborne Main Cannon, more than ny percent of the Torch Ship Captains present showed a burning desire in their eyes, their breathing bing exceptionally heavy.


    An Orange Glory Quality Shipborne Main Cannon was exceedingly rare and its value was beyond measure.
