Chapter 1348: Chapter 711: [Truth Mechanical Civilization] (3)
Midway through, his tone suddenly shifted.
“Subsequently, I will likely need to use the [Concentric Medallion] component, so I want to borrow the [Flame God Annihilation Cannon], [Black Hole Armor], [Flame Contract], and [Flame God Dominator Skull] components from your flagship.”
The four components Song Chi mentioned, the [Flame Contract] and [Flame God Dominator Skull], do not conflict with the components currently installed on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong. Therefore, borrowing them naturally means directly mounting them on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong. As for the [Flame God Annihilation Cannon] and [Black Hole Armor], Song Chi plans to temporarily mount them on the [White Snow Qing You Number], so that he can temporarily use the feature capabilities of one of them later through the [Concentric Medallion] component.
Faced with Song Chi’s request, Song Wujiang and the other two did not refuse.
However, after some discussion, Song Chi did not take direct action but instead delayed this action for decades.
Fifty years later, Zhuifire Plains on Dragon Spine Continent.
Inside the large Combined Illusion Space, in the Vault of Heaven, accompanied by a flash of golden light shooting from the bow of the Dinghai Dragon Steed, intense spatial fluctuations emerged. Subsequently, rather than gradually dissipating over time, these spatial fluctuations became increasingly intense.
Until finally, a gigantic space wormhole once again formed above the Illusion Space.
Compared to the several surrounding wormhole entrances, the acquired wormhole created this time was obviously more stable, and similarly, the communication distance of the wormhole was also farther.
Ever since the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] was upgraded with the Golden Spark, the farthest communication distance of the [Space Wormhole Generator] skyrocketed from the previous 120 billion light-years at the Seventh Rank to 1,200 billion light-years. This distance has long exceeded the distance between the Primordial Clan and the Torch Human Civilization, being significant even in the vast Starry Sea.
Of course, relying on just a golden oddity would not have been so formidable; it was thanks to the configuration of the Miracle Origin Improvement Platform at the Ruins Market that allowed Song Chi to freely replace certain features, further enhancing the function range of the [Space Wormhole Generator].
Seeing the formation of the space wormhole, the people within the Illusion Space almost simultaneously showed smiles on their faces.
The coordinates Song Wujiang had just set for the space wormhole’s focus were exactly the star domain coordinates of the Truth Mechanical Civilization that Song Chi had obtained earlier.
And since the space wormhole had taken shape, it meant that the space wormhole had successfully connected to the star domain where the Truth Mechanical Civilization resided.
After a brief moment of joy, the four Annihilation Starship Captains of the Song Family quickly reacted.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Only a rumble of engines could be heard as the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong turned into a blur and darted straight into the newly formed space wormhole.
Although they had successfully connected to the star domain coordinates believed to be the truth mechanical civilization’s location tens of thousands of years ago, they were unaware of the current situation on the other side and whether the appearance of the space wormhole had already caught the attention of the truth mechanical civilization.
Therefore, for the safety of Dragon Spine Continent, Song Chi had to first understand the situation on the other side.
Even this was not entirely secure, so as the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong passed through the wormhole corridor and arrived at the unknown star domain on the other side, Song Wujiang directly destroyed the space wormhole.
Facing a powerful mechanical civilization that likely possessed ninth-rank combat units, leaving the wormhole corridor could have been a ticking time bomb for the Song Family. Only by completely destroying it could the safety of the Song Family be guaranteed.
As for Song Chi, with the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, he had his own escape route.
Before the space wormhole was destroyed, he had tested it out, confirming that not only could he log into the market, but it could also send him directly back to Dragon Spine Continent.
After confirming this, Song Wujiang did not hesitate to let the space wormhole self-destruct.
…
Immediately after exiting the space wormhole, Song Chi cautiously surveyed his surroundings.
While using the [Heavenly Eye] to continuously monitor the surrounding starry sky, he also focused part of his attention on the [Neutron Star Core Armor], [Black Hole Evolution Layer], and [Ruins Market Projection Rank], ready to activate these life-saving cards at the slightest sign of trouble.
However, it turned out he was somewhat overly cautious. The exit of the space wormhole was in a Silent Stellar Space, an empty void, with nothing but vacuum expanses devoid of even an asteroid belt, let alone a Starry Sea Floating Land.
’How could it be a vacuum star domain? Based on the information disclosed by the [Lord of Truth], even if this isn’t the most central star domain of the Truth Mechanical Civilization, it should still be a prominent core star domain…’
’Could the [Lord of Truth] have accounted for this, changing the coordinates outside the True Spirit Mechanical Civilization to prevent subsequent arrivals from directly facing danger?’
After regaining his composure, Song Chi tentatively navigated the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong through the surrounding stellar space. Only after several dozen minutes did the “Transit Star Map Collection” feature successfully generate a transit star map.
The “Jump Star Map Collector” feature of the Golden [Space Jump Device], combined with the radar of the Golden [Heavenly Eye], resulted in a star map with a diameter of over 200,000 light-years. Though this range remained insignificant to the Endless Star Sea, it sufficed for Song Chi to gain a straightforward understanding of the surrounding star domain.
A star map with a diameter exceeding 200,000 light-years provided extremely astounding information, quickly giving Song Chi a detailed understanding of the surrounding star domain.
It confirmed that the coordinates were correct, and the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong was indeed situated within a sizable Starry Sea Hollow Zone, which was likely a deliberate aspect of the [Lord of Truth] to ensure that entrants could quietly enter this Truth Mechanical Civilization territory.
Beyond this Starry Sea Hollow Zone, naturally, lay the territory under the dominion of the Truth Mechanical Civilization. Song Chi noted the presence of numerous Starry Sea Floating Lands in the jump star map.
However, so far, no Starry Sea Floating Lands of the Seventh Level or higher were observed, indicating that this location might still be far from the true core star domain of the Truth Mechanical Civilization.
Upon confirming this, Song Chi quickly prepared a specific plan for subsequent actions.
Activating the [Mirage Transformation Pearl of Mirage Dragon] · “Mirage Shadow”!
With the activation of the “Mirage Shadow” feature, Song Chi initiated another starship jump.
The [Space Jump Device], coupled with the [Red Vault Jump Device], allowed Song Chi to jump over tens of thousands of light-years during the duration of the Mirage Shadow.
…
Dozens of minutes later, within a certain Fourth Level Floating Land.
The Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, hidden in the void, remained suspended in the Vault of Heaven. The vast number of living beings of the Mechanical Race on the surface of the Floating Land were unable to detect it.
Through Song Chi’s covert operations, he soon acquired a considerable amount of information using special means.
According to the information, this star domain indeed belonged to the Truth Mechanical Civilization, and as Song Chi anticipated, after tens of thousands of years, the Truth Mechanical Civilization had long risen to become a top-tier high-level civilization.
The [Father of Truth] had entered the Ninth Rank more than 200,000 years ago, and as the civilization rapidly expanded, he then sequentially created three ninth-rank level Truth Mechanical Giant Beasts: [Overlord], [Chi Hu], and [Destruction].
In a short span of thousands of years, through the fervent advancement of three ninth-rank Truth Mechanical Giant Beasts, the Truth Mechanical Civilization expanded from its initial two river systems to nearly forty. Yet, as the three ninth-rank Truth Mechanical Giants advanced unstoppably, they encountered another top-tier high-level civilization, the Star Sea Giant Ape Civilization.
Sharing the same river system communities with the Truth Mechanical Civilization, the Star Sea Giant Ape Civilization inevitably clashed as both sides aggressively expanded.
This led to a civilization tug-of-war lasting over ten thousand years.
Compared to the Truth Mechanical Civilization, the Star Sea Giant Ape Civilization was much stronger, occupying more than a hundred river systems. It possessed up to five ninth-rank Star Sea Giant Apes. Throughout the prolonged war, the Truth Mechanical Civilization remained at a disadvantage.
In fact, 30,000 years ago, one of the three ninth-rank Truth Mechanical Giants, [Destruction], was even destroyed by two ninth-rank Star Sea Giant Apes, further amplifying the Truth Mechanical Civilization’s disadvantage. To this day, the Truth Mechanical Civilization is struggling against the progression of the Star Sea Giant Ape Civilization.
