Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 751 - 395: Newcomer at Ruins Market [Dark Night Elves]
382 meters!
Anlok stared at the height, completely lost in confusion.
This height was not the highest achieved by the Stark Family in nearly ten thousand years, not even in the top five, but no one could deny that it was a once-in-a-thousand-years achievement.
The last Stark member to reach this height, he remembered, was an elder from over a thousand years ago, who had now advanced to the rank of a Battleship Captain, and it was said that he had a high probability of becoming a Fearless Captain.
Compared to his own result of 303 meters, 382 meters was far too much of an improvement.
As for the emotional changes of the personnel below the mountain, Song Chi was unaware; to be honest, he was still somewhat dissatisfied at the moment.
He had thought that, with his Divine Thought State Spiritual capable of twenty-one uses, he should have a chance to break through 400 meters, especially since he clearly remembered that Feike Vladimir, who came from a real Immortal Clan, only managed twenty uses with his spiritual force, and the Stark Family was strictly speaking only a super first-class family.
He had not expected the difficulty of Soul Refining Mountain to be this high; if that Feike Vladimir came here, wouldn't it be an extraordinary performance just to reach 370 meters?
Without further thought, Song Chi descended from Soul Refining Mountain.
And as he steadily approached the foot of the mountain, the previously oppressive and tempering effects on his spiritual force quickly became apparent.
The more severe the suppression had been before, the more fierce the rebound was now, and as he moved closer to the foot of the mountain, this rebound trend intensified.
"Crack!"
A faint sound of cracking echoed in his mind, and Song Chi knew that he had officially broken through from twenty-one uses to twenty-two uses of his spiritual force, with half the journey to the foot of the mountain still remaining.
In the last moment as Song Chi left the range of Soul Refining Mountain, although his spiritual force did not break through to twenty-three uses, he heard that last faint cracking sound very clearly.

If he was not mistaken, the bottleneck between twenty-two uses and twenty-three had already developed a crack, and if he could endure a bit longer, he might be able to break through to twenty-three uses before his Guidance Technique reached the Fourth Rank.
Song Chi couldn't be too pleased with this result, as it was well worth his full effort previously.
In the following days, the group traveled around the vast nearby area and eventually settled down in a luxurious hotel provided by the Stark Family.
Negotiations among the higher-ups seemed to have encountered some issues and had not ended yet, so everyone could only wait.
In the hotel's underground warship summoning room, the Cang Qiong's hatch was tightly closed, isolating everything from the outside world.
Inside the warship, Song Chi left only a Fourth Rank Void Demon to report real-time external information, while he himself entered the Ruins Market, preparing for a new round of Ruins Market trading.
Because he was unable to use Spectral Energy while traveling during the previous two months, he hadn't been able to engage in Ruins Market trading; taking advantage of the available time now, he naturally started a new round.
Before initiating the Ruins Market trading, however, he first took out the "Transcendent Controller" component.
Although there wasn't much Titanium Crystal left in his hand, it was still enough to enhance this Red Epic component to the Fifth Rank.
Transcendent Controller lv50
Quality: Red
Feature: Supernatural Chaos
Feature 2: Supernatural Amplification
Feature 3: Supernatural Outburst
Consumption: 1200/s (Spectral Energy Points)
Effect: After installation, the concentration of Supernatural Power (Spectral Energy) inside the warship increases by 150%.
No need for charging and buffering
Upgrade requirements: 3 Floating Land Origins (Fifth Rank), 200000 Spectral Energy Points, 200 tons Cobalt Stone, 43 Law Stones, 123 Titanium Crystals
Note: This component must occupy 3 slots
{SuperNatural Chaos: Consumes 100000 Spectral Energy Points to cause temporary chaos in the supernatural energy within a 500 km radius of the designated target, cooldown time 12 hours.}
{SuperNatural Amplification: Consumes 100000 Spectral Energy Points to significantly enhance the strength, recovery speed, and transfer speed of supernatural energy within a 500 km radius of the designated target, cooldown time 6 hours.}
{SuperNatural Outburst: Consumes 200000 Spectral Energy Points for a specified ally within a 500 km radius, consumes all of its vitality, causing their internal supernatural energy to surge by a Great Rank (maximum limit not exceeding this component's grade limit), duration 10 minutes, cooldown time 1 year.}
After the Fifth Rank, the attributes of this component became even better, and Song Chi could clearly feel that as the piece was loaded and enhanced, the concentration of Spectral Energy inside Cang Qiong rapidly increased. This not only subtly improved his Guidance Technique's level but also gradually strengthened his physique.
Of course, neither effect was immediate—both required a long time to gradually improve.
After handling this component, Song Chi then commenced a new round of Ruins Market trading.
Inn, third floor.
Ever since Zhou Ping's "Guest Rank" was replaced with "Travel Command," his posture had become much straighter.
Moreover, having obtained a complete set of resources for Golden Core promotion, after more than twenty years, he had successively advanced to Golden Core, and was no longer a fringe figure in the Luofu Sword Sect.
Thus, as soon as the Ruins Market opened, he logged in as quickly as possible.
Of course, there was another reason for this.
After walking into the Oddity Exchange Shop, Zhou Ping respectfully took out a small cloth bag from his Storage Bag.
Although he had advanced to Golden Core, his reverence for the Ruins Market had not diminished at all—on the contrary, it had intensified.
He had also carefully discussed the "Ruins Market Projection Rank" with his sect master; originally, he didn't understand the term "Dominators" used in Shattered Starry Sea, as it differed from the common titles used on Primordial Continent.
Only after listening to detailed conversations from the sect master and the elders did his fear deepen.
According to the Luofu Sword Sect Divinity Sect Master, the Dominators of Shattered Starry Sea, in their immortal cultivation civilization, were known as "Immortals."
Real immortals, figures that only appeared in Primordial Continent mythology—how could such figures not instill fear in a mere Golden Core Cultivator?
"Great Lord of the Ruins Market, this is the last batch of Titanium Crystals!"
From a god's perspective, Song Chi watched the scene without any reaction, casually waving his hand to seize the cloth bag.
The Titanium Crystals inside the bag far exceeded the usual amount, totaling 1000 pieces. However, for the current Song Chi, it was merely a drop in the bucket.
His thoughts shifted, and immediately, two characters appeared on the projection screen at the center of the Oddity Exchange Shop.
[Not bad!]
Previously, he had exchanged the "Immeasurable Sword Stone" for the "Ruins Market Walking Rank." Strictly speaking, he was not obligated to hand over these Titanium Crystals anymore. Yet, the Luofu Sword Sect hadn't revoked this requirement, and now they had sent over the remaining Titanium Crystals at once. Although the amount wasn't substantial, it was a gesture of goodwill from them, and he wouldn't skimp on praise.
At this moment, Song Chi's gaze suddenly shifted toward the entrance of the Ruins Market.
By now, a significant number of Starry Sea Alien Races had gathered in the market. Among them, there were no species of great interest, but the newly entered tall figures instantly drew the attention of many aliens.
"Slender with pointed ears and long hair—that's the Elf Race!"
Among the many aliens, some already identified the identities of these new arrivals.
However, if they were just ordinary elves, Song Chi wouldn't be so attentive.
After all, Elf Races did exist on the Holy Dragon Continent, but those were only the lower-class Gray Elves, limited in potential and value.
These elves were different; they were cloaked in black emitting a dark Mysterious Force, evidently Dark Night Elves from the higher elf echelons.
Compared to the lower Gray Elves, these Dark Night Elves were much more mysterious.
Once he confirmed the identity of these elves, only three characters emerged in Song Chi's mind.
[Moon Spring]
It was indeed a rare resource, produced only by a few high-status Elf Races.
And it had many uses, among which, two particularly tempted the Torch Warship Captain.
One was extending lifespan. As one of the well-known life-prolonging Sacred Objects, even the lowest Quality Moon Spring could extend life by nearly a hundred years.
The other was its ability to eliminate the Cooldown Time of the Seeds of Torch.
Lifespan needs no further explanation, but the effect on Cooldown Time was crucial.
Once a Torch Warship failed an upgrade, even if the Captain wasn't on the warship and thus wouldn't die with it, the Seed of Torch would still enter a prolonged Cooldown Period. Even a Third Rank Level Torch Ship Captain faced Cooldowns lasting decades, let alone those of the Fourth, Fifth, or even Sixth and Seventh Rank.
At those levels, the Cooldown Time for the Seed of Torch could span hundreds to thousands of years, frightfully long.
The Moon Spring could significantly reduce this Cooldown Time, not by mere 20% or 30%, or even 50%, but by allowing the Seed of Torch to complete its Cooldown—highlighting its exceptional rarity.
Of course, Moon Spring varied in Quality, and not every Moon Spring worked on any Torch Warship; higher Rank Torch Ship Captains needed higher Quality Moon Springs.
"There, they all have severe injuries on them..."
His gaze lingered on the few Dark Night Elves, and Song Chi quickly noticed the alarming wounds emitting black energy on their bodies.
These wounds harbored intense corrosive Energy, mixed with some fluctuations that felt somewhat familiar to Song Chi.
While he was still pondering, the several Dark Night Elves approached the market's entrance, their gaze lingering on the [Rules Screen]. When they saw both the "Ruins Market Walking Rank" and "Ruins Market Projection Rank," faint joy appeared in the eyes of the Rank Three and Rank Four Dark Night Elves.
As Song Chi anticipated their next move, he suddenly looked up, his icy gaze locking on the direction of the market entrance,
"Is this energy responsible for the injuries to these Dark Night Elves?"
Just outside the Void Gate where several Dark Night Elves entered earlier, a very potent, chilling Energy suddenly appeared, its Energy Level no lower than Fifth Rank. It approached the Space Gate almost without hesitation, trying desperately to squeeze through the portal.
The Ruin Market Firmament stirred as a finger made of complete Perfect Law Force suddenly emerged. This Law Finger effortlessly entered the space where the chilling Energy swirled around the portal.
Subsequently, only a wretched scream echoed throughout the market.
The various Starry Sea alien races were still clueless until the retracting Law Finger pulled back into the Ruin Market Firmament. There, visibly attached to the tip of the Law Finger, was an enormous Black Magic Spider.
"Black Magic Spider!"
In the moment they saw this massive black spider over ten thousand meters in size, the few Dark Night Elves instinctively screamed out.
This enormous black spider, known as the Black Magic Spider, was a common Vassal Race of the [Spider Mother Rosi] from the Land of Gods.
Unexpectedly, the fierce and utterly relentless Fifth Rank Black Magic Spider that had given them no escape in heaven or on earth was effortlessly killed by the mysterious Lord of All Heavens Ruins. After their brief fear, the faces of the few Dark Night Elves bore irrepressible joy.
At the same time, their anticipation for the "Ruin Market Projection Rank" grew stronger.
Without any delay, these few Dark Night Elves soon entered one of the exclusive Ruin Market shops,
and one of them took out an object shining with bright silver light.
[Strange Object: Bow of Annihilation]
[Quality: Silver]
[Convertible: {Annihilation of All Spirits Bow}]
[Note: Weapon of a legendary Dark Night Elf from the Land of Gods, turned into a Silver Quality Strange Object over the years.]
A Silver Legendary Oddity on direct display?
Song Chi was slightly taken aback, having previously wondered if they would exchange for the "Guest Rank" or "Travel Command." Now, it seemed they hadn't lingered on the "Guest Rank" from the beginning.
Thinking of this, his gaze fixed on this Silver Legendary Oddity.
Annihilation of All Spirits Bow Lv0
Quality: Silver
