Global Era of Star trekking

The fluctuating Spectral Gauze around his body, the surging power within, the spiritual force emptied to the extreme.

At this moment, Song Chi felt incredibly good; this second Life Sublimation exceeded the effects he had imagined.

Besides the obvious enhancements in his internal strength, Spectral Energy, and lifespan, there was also an invisible aspect that had improved.

Song Chi tightly closed his eyes, his thoughts racing. Your journey continues with empire

The next second, his eyes snapped open, deep joy surfacing in their depths.

Just now, he had simultaneously initiated five separate computations in his mind, a task that previously required entering a Limit-breaking State to complete perfectly, but this time he accomplished it with ease, without the need for that extra amplification the Limit-breaking State provided.

In other words, his Spiritual Force had now reached the level of Fivefold Mind Utilization. Initially, this second Life Sublimation was supposed to elevate a being from the Ordinary Thought State First Rank to the Ordinary Thought State Second Rank, that is from Threefold Mind Utilization to Fourfold Mind Utilization.

However, because Song Chi had previously reached this level by using Divine Soul Type resources, this Life Sublimation's baptism of his spiritual aspects directly elevated him from Fourfold to Fivefold Mind Utilization.

Although there was still a gap from the Ordinary Thought State Third Rank of Sixfold Mind Utilization, he was now much closer. With just one more step, he could join the ranks of the torchship captains of Torch Human Civilization at the Second Rank, known for their genius-tier Spiritual Force at the Third Rank level of Ordinary Thought State.

Furthermore, let's not forget he still possessed the Limit-breaking State. Even if this special skill was not rare among those in higher circles, it would enable him to temporarily enter the Sixfold Mind Utilization state, which could be quite useful in critical moments.

With this in mind, he moved his limbs again and then took out the remaining 3/4 of the Clam Pearls.

After some thought, he decided to keep them for later, planning to use them in combination with a Top-Tier Body Forging Potion after some time.

In the roughly twenty days, the enhancement of his Guidance Technique had been significant, covering a distance that others couldn't in ten years.

It was precisely because of this extraordinary progression that Song Chi felt the sense of emptiness deep within that needed to be consolidated over time.

If he were to use the remaining 3/4 of the Clam Pearls now, he feared he would need to spend multiple times the effort to replenish his foundational strength.

As soon as he stepped out of the All-Attributes Cultivation Room, Song Chi's thoughts shifted.

Then the Vault of Heaven of the Ruins Market changed color abruptly, the power of innumerable Laws converging rapidly. In less than two seconds, a hundred-meter tall giant figure of the Law materialized above Song Chi's body.

Looking at this form, it bore a striking resemblance to the powerful Divine Skill "Law as the Heaven, Image as the Earth" mentioned in novels from his past life.

Of course, the reality was not as such. This was simply an enhancement of Song Chi's control over the Zhu Tian Ruins Market after advancing to the Second Rank, allowing him to utilize the Ruins Market Law more adeptly.

After dispersing the giant figure of the Law, Song Chi had a realization:

"With my current control over the Ruins Market, and with the Market itself having Advanced, if a Fourth Rank lifeform from outside were to reach out across space to influence the Market now, it should be easy to handle. Even a Fifth Rank Level being could be resisted under this level of surging vitality, though a Sixth Rank could be problematic, likely resulting in at least severe injury."

With this thought, he felt slightly relieved.

Compared to Fourth and Fifth Rank beings, Sixth Rank entities were far less common in the Shattered Starry Sea, which meant that the safety of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market was now tens to hundreds of times stronger than when he was still First Rank.

Considering this, Song Chi was ready to leave the Ruins Market. With nearly twenty days of cultivation, the next exploration into the Alien Star Domain was not far off; it was time to prepare thoroughly.

But as he gathered the Spectral Energy within his body toward his chest, preparing to activate the Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank he wore close to his heart, Song Chi's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"A new change in the Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank?"

As Spectral Energy poured into the token, the Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank once again grew faintly warm, this sudden change buoying his expectations and curiosity.

He carefully examined the token that connected the Zhu Tian Ruins Market to the outside world.

After playing with it for a while, Song Chi finally understood the latest changes in the Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank, his gaze shifting without showing obvious disappointment or joy.

Instead, there appeared a hint of surprise.

"Can it simply be taken into the Ancestral Torch now?"

Indeed, perhaps due to advancing to the Second Rank or an improvement in his control over the Market, the Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank, which could not be placed into the Ancestral Torch before, could now be brought inside.

Based on this change, the good news was that he no longer needed to worry about exposing the token. Although he always carried it close, since it remained outside his body, there was always a slight risk of exposure.

Now, being able to bring it into the Ancestral Torch completely eliminated that risk.

On the other hand, the bad news was that this minor change provided no benefit to his own strength, which was somewhat disappointing to Song Chi, who had held some hope.

As the Ghost Light circulated at the glabella, the Ancestral Aperture opened, and an attracting force emanated from within. The Starry Sea Ruin Market Rank, already removed from his neck, began to float upwards gently and eventually entirely entered the Ancestral Aperture.

After the aperture closed again, Song Chi closed his eyes and sunk his spirit into the Ancestral Torch.
