Chapter 544: Chapter 289: Family Reward_2

Three years after reaching this midpoint on the mountain’s slope, Song Chi not only mastered the secret technique “Dragon Whale State,” but also used an intermediate Space Law Crystal to raise his comprehension of spatial laws to 0.15%. Only then did he hurriedly begin to cultivate “Ruins Returning Slash.”

Perhaps because he was already following the path of spatial laws, his comprehension speed for this space-based secret technique was very fast; in just half the time it took to master “Dragon Whale State,” he mastered this second secret technique.

In addition, during this year and a half, his comprehension degree of spatial laws had also improved from 0.15% to 0.17%. The speed was still quite decent, considering that he spent most of his time cultivating secret techniques. To have made this much progress was already quite remarkable.

Suddenly, the phantom of the Dragon Whale began to dissipate rapidly, but the scattered power of spatial laws quickly reconvened, and soon a ten-centimeter long void light condensed beside Song Chi.

It was none other than the Return to Ruins Light, formed by the “Ruins Returning Slash” secret technique.

Despite the fact that he had just begun to learn this technique, and that the formed Return to Ruins Light was exceptionally small, the cutting force and the annihilating power of returning to ruins wrapped within it were extremely intense; its might was quite considerable.

...

Of course, this was a feature of the “Ruins Returning Slash” itself and did not conceal the truth that he had only just begun to control this technique, with many aspects still obscure and incomprehensible in its execution.

“It seems I need to continue practicing, but right now there’s no time for that. If I calculate carefully, the ten years are nearly up; it’s time to leave the Dragon Spine Secret Realm!”

“Otherwise, my comprehension of the laws will solidify into the deficient laws of the Secret Realm and I’ll no longer be able to correct them into the laws of the Starry Sea.”

As he was thinking, a familiar figure appeared in Song Chi’s vision—it was the family head, Song Xuancang.

However, this time it was not a projected avatar, but the actual person of the family head.

With the blessing of a vast amount of spatial laws, Song Xuancang’s speed ascending the mountain was extremely fast. Although he was stepping steadily like Song Chi, one step at a time, from Song Chi’s perspective, it seemed as if he was folding massive amounts of space with each step, managing to cover hundreds, if not thousands, of meters.

“Space contraction?”

This was a term that instinctively formed in Song Chi’s mind, but before he could think further, Song Xuancang had already arrived in front of him.

“Family head!”

Song Chi respectfully spoke.

Song Xuancang nodded, smiling faintly, and said softly,

“How have these ten years of effort fared?”

“Not bad!”

Without much thought, Song Chi immediately gave his most honest answer from the heart. He didn’t know the data on law comprehension for the other clan members but he believed his ten years of gains were fairly good.

The smile remained on Song Xuancang’s face, but he did not continue to inquire.

“Let’s go, it’s time to leave. For the next few decades, you won’t be able to enter the Dragon Spine Secret Realm again. Only when your law comprehension is completely assimilated into the laws of the Starry Sea will you be able to enter the Secret Realm a second time to perceive them!”

Song Chi nodded and then followed the family head down the mountain.

This time Song Xuancang’s speed returned to normal, and Song Chi knew this was because of him, but there was nothing he could do. His body’s spatial law comprehension determined the pace—they couldn’t go any faster.

As they were about to leave the Secret Realm, Song Xuancang softly glanced at Song Chi and then quietly said,

“The information you provided about the wreckage of the Tri-Eyed Royal Family’s Dominator Battleship has contributed greatly to the clan. After discussion among the clan elders and several ancestors, we have listed several reward schemes. You can think about what you urgently need first.”

Upon hearing this, a light shone in Song Chi’s eyes, and he whispered to himself, indeed.

When he decided to report the news of the battlefield in the Ancient Star Domain, he had guessed that the clan might reward him additionally because after all, it pertained to opportunities at the Seventh Rank Level. Now it seemed his earlier thoughts had been validated.

His eyes flickered, quickly contemplating what resources or parts Cang Qiong and he himself needed the most.

The entrance and exit to the Dragon Spine Secret Realm were mysterious. At least Song Chi still had no clear idea about the specific locations of these entrances and exits because each time he went in or out, the place was different.

Although he was somewhat puzzled about this, he did not dwell on it too much.

The Dragon Spine Secret Realm, as an original secret realm, is one of the pillars of our family’s heritage; naturally, the level of importance placed on it by the clan is extremely high. All of this is for the protection of this secret realm.

Once out of the secret realm, Song Chi subconsciously closed his eyes, his whole body seeming to cheer as he fully immersed himself in the aura of the external Starry Sea.

Though the Dragon Spine Secret Realm is good, with its endless manifestation of Primordial Laws, and where one can comprehend the Laws at an astonishing pace, it ultimately cannot compare to the Shattered Starry Sea. The laws within are deficient; no one could endure spending years there without change.

Following the family head to the Ancestral Hall, this time there were no many clan elders and ancestors, just him and the family head.

Before he could speak, Song Xuancang made a light gesture with his hand, and soon Song Chi saw a virtual screen appearing before him.

Multiple columns of text were displayed on the virtual screen.

Option One: One silver component of your choice + one red component of your choice + 10 strands of Fifth-Rank Floating Land Origin + one certificate for a Fourth-Rank Enslaved Creature

Option Two: One silver component of your choice + one certificate for a Fifth-Rank Enslaved Creature + one orange component of your choice

Option Three: Three red components of your choice + four orange components of your choice + one certificate for a Fifth-Rank Enslaved Creature

His gaze swept over the three options listed on the screen, and a trace of indecision flashed through Song Chi’s eyes.

He immediately discounted Option Three; despite the greater number of components it offered, the real difference between red components and silver components was like the difference between heaven and earth. Moreover, he was currently short of intermediate-high rank resources, so it wouldn’t be easy to enhance all seven components if he picked them.

He hesitated between Option One and Two; he could accept either plan, and found it difficult to choose between them.

After a moment of hesitation, Song Chi asked a seemingly unrelated question:

“Family head, I have not claimed the sequential resource subsidy for the past ten years…”

Without waiting for him to finish, Song Xuancang, seated at the top of the great hall, gestured again, and a large sphere of light suddenly appeared in front of Song Chi.

Within the sphere of light, there were vast amounts of resources – the sequential resources he had not yet claimed in over ten years.

42,000 Titanium Crystals, 2,800 Law Stones, 2,800 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin, 28,000 strands of Third-Rank Floating Land Origin…

Seeing this wealth of resources, Song Chi made his decision.

“Family head, I choose Option Two!”

With the addition of a few thousand strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin and the dozen or so strands of Fifth-Rank Floating Land Origin he already possessed, he could easily enhance the [Enslavement Medal] to Fifth Rank. Without this restriction, the value of a Fifth-Rank Level enslaved creature was obviously far greater to him.

Let’s not forget that the [Enslavement Mark: Frenzy] feature can temporarily boost the combat power of an enslaved creature by a full rank, though it cannot exceed the enhancement limit of the component. However, the upper limit of the red epic components is Sixth Rank, just enough to affect a Fifth-Rank enslaved creature.

A ready-to-fight Sixth-Rank combat presence – there’s no need to say what that means.

It would be equivalent to a once-off Sixth-Rank combat power summoning card, able to turn the tide of battle at the most dangerous moments for the Cang Qiong.

As Song Chi made his choice, the two headed to the Family Merit Hall.

According to the family head, the three items from Option Two could be freely chosen by him from the Merit Hall.

Well… the kind where you can pick anything from below the 100th floor.

Song Chi had a clear goal and went straight to the 80th floor of the Merit Tower.

He had already visited the first 79 floors, so now that he had the opportunity, he naturally had to see what the 80th floor had to offer.

Moreover, the pattern for the exchangeable items in the Family Merit Hall has always been that the higher you go, the more precious and valuable the items.

PS: There’s one more chapter to be added as a reward, but it will be late.

PS2: What do you think of this reward?
