Chapter 970 -507: No Match and Divine Fire Body Tempering_2
“I still have two deep water clam pearls, each thousands of years old, hoping they can help the Guidance Technique break through one or two minor levels.”
Muttering to himself, he left the Ruins Market.
Calculating the time, the Divine Fire Ceremony of the Tuoba Royal Family is in the next few days.
The second day, early morning.
Today, the Silver Disk Floating Land is exceptionally lively, with a large number of Torch Warships of Fourth Rank and above gathering from beyond the Floating Land, ready to attend the once-in-a-century Divine Fire Ceremony of the Tuoba Royal Family.
The Divine Fire Ceremony, as the name suggests, is a tribute ceremony for a special high-level Fire Seed controlled by the Tuoba Royal Family.
The Tuoba Royal Family is different from other Torch Clans; their fundamental heritage does not come from the Star Sea Divine Spirits or the Starry Sky Behemoths, but from a legendary Fire Seed called [Taicang Fire].
This [Taicang Fire Seed] not only contains a variety of Fire Attribute Inherited Secret Techniques, but can also grant the people of the Tuoba Clan a higher Fire Attribute Talent to some extent; this is why the Tuoba Royal Family is renowned for their mastery of fire throughout the Torch Galaxy Clusters.
However, this [Taicang Fire Seed] is not omnipotent. To continuously grant Fire Attribute Talents to their clan members, the Tuoba Royal Family also needs to continuously offer tributes to it, only then can the [Taicang Fire Seed] never extinguish and even gradually grow stronger.
Silver Disk Floating Land, [Taicang Sacred Mountain].
As the ancestral land of the Tuoba Royal Family, just like the Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain, there is also an extremely large square built at the base of the mountain.
Today, a large number of invited Torch Ship Captains from the outside are gathered here, waiting for this century’s Divine Fire Ceremony of the Tuoba Royal Family.
In the crowd, Song Chi follows behind his elder ancestor quietly waiting for the ceremony to officially start.
Soon, an elderly figure appeared in the sky above the White Jade Square, emitting a life breath close to the Seventh Rank, giving all the present Torch Ship Captains a significant sense of oppression.
Fortunately, it was just to intimidate, as he quickly retracted all the pressure.
Standing among the crowd, Song Chi soon heard quiet murmuring around him.
“That’s Tuoba Muchong, I heard he is over nine thousand years old, and he entered the ranks of the Ultimate Fearless Captains five thousand years ago, his combat power is unfathomable!”
“Who knows when he will make the leap to become a Star-Annihilating Captain, he doesn’t have much time left.”
…
“Tuoba Muchong, huh…”
Song Chi looked up at the elderly figure above, then quickly looked away.
Not long after, the elderly voice came from above.
“The time has come, I declare this Divine Fire Ceremony officially open, summon the divine fire!”
Following that announcement, a Fearless Ship unexpectedly appeared above the front square.
If his guess was correct, Song Chi speculated that this Fearless Ship should be one of the Heritage Warships of the Tuoba Royal Family.
Soon the doors of the Fearless Ship opened, and then a fire seed emitting a captivating grey light was drawn out from within.
With the appearance of this fire seed, Song Chi could feel the temperature in the whole square rising significantly.
However, other captains were already accustomed to this, and it didn’t take long before the Tuoba Clan successively brought over a staggering amount of various resources.
Among them, red, orange, purple Fire Seed Oddities, Fire Attribute Mineral Resources, high-quality Starry Sea Wood Attribute Spirit Plants, etc., were continuously thrown into the Taicang Fire Seed above by several Sixth Rank Level half-dragons.
Through his Double Pupils, Song Chi could see that with each batch of resources thrown into the fire seed, the Taicang Fire Seed would brighten a bit.”
It is evident that all the resources prepared by the Tuoba Clan are greatly beneficial for the Taicang Fire Seed.
The ceremony had not ended, or rather, it had just begun. Following the complete contribution of resources prepared by the Tuoba Clan to the Fire Seed, it was then the turn of the invited guests in the square.
Based on the guests’ respective positions, one captain after another stepped forward, either presenting Fire Seed Oddities of red, orange, purple, or rare Fire Attribute Resources, one by one casting them into the Taicang Fire Seed above them.
Why does the Tuoba Royal Family hold such a grand Divine Fire Ceremony every hundred years? And why do they allocate a limited number of Divine Fire Body Tempering slots to others?
The reason is exactly this: to leverage the power of numerous forces across the river system to help nourish the Taicang Fire Seed.
Of course, the representatives of other forces are not fools; the Fire Seed Oddities they offer are mostly of purple quality or some passable Fire Attribute Resources. Only those forces intent on competing for the Divine Fire Body Tempering slots dare to offer items of orange or even red quality.
In the end, the top twenty forces that presented the most valuable items each received one Body Tempering slot.
When it was Song Wujiang’s turn, he offered an orange Fire Seed Oddity that could not be converted into an Upgarde Fire Source. It wasn’t considered high, but it could rank in the upper middle range.
Although he had already secured a slot through Tuoba Jun, making an effort was necessary; providing too modest a tribute would only embarrass Tuoba Jun. Offering an orange Fire Seed Oddity was just right for the occasion.
Once all slots were determined, the Divine Fire Body Tempering phase began.
During this phase, the Taicang Fire Seed, having absorbed enough Fire Attribute Resources, responded to the external world. It transformed a small part of the absorbed energy into a form of Body Tempering Divine Fire. The captains who obtained slot needed to physically step into this Fire Sea of Body Tempering and use the Divine Fire to temper their bodies.
As Spectral Energy surged within Song Chi, preparing to step out of the crowd, he heard Song Wujiang’s voice transmission.
“Little Chi, the Body Tempering with Taicang Divine Fire is greatly beneficial for Torch Ship Captains, endeavor to endure as long as possible. The longer the tempering duration, the greater the benefits!”
“Understood, grandfather!”
Song Chi nodded, then under the envelopment of Fifth Rank Spectral Energy and the Space Law, his figure stealthily vanished from amidst the crowd, reappearing on a raised platform at the front of the square.
Seeing him appear out of thin air, several captains who had ascended the stage earlier showed expressions of surprise.
The Space Law, a Law not commonly attempted by captains due to its high difficulty of comprehension.
Song Chi paid no mind to the curious glances around him and quietly closed his eyes to adjust his own condition.
Based on his estimation, given the current strength of his physique, his duration in the Divine Fire could not be too short. However, following the elder’s reminder, he naturally aimed to adjust his state optimally to endure for an extended period.
About the importance of a strong physique, Song Chi knew exceptionally well since it corresponds to the strength of Spiritual Force.
For a Torch Ship Captain, simply seeking to enhance Spiritual Force is not feasible, as stronger Spiritual Force demands a more robust physique; only a more powerful body can accommodate more Spiritual Force.
Although his physique was not weak and could sustain the Divine Thought State Spiritual using Fifty Uses With One Mind, he should not forget he also possessed a Seventh Rank Essence of Spiritual Origin. Once absorbed, his Spiritual Force would surge, and whether his body could withstand it was questionable.
Therefore, Song Chi’s plan was straightforward: since the Taicang Fire could strengthen his physique, he intended to extend the tempering duration as much as possible.
About two minutes later, once everyone was on stage, the Taicang Fire Seed above lowered the Body Tempering Fire.
Instantly, Song Chi felt as though he had been thrown into a furnace, the terrifying heat baking every inch of his body.
Realizing that this was the flame refining his body, Song Chi forced himself to calm down, his Spectral Energy circulating rapidly within him to mitigate the discomfort caused by the overwhelming flame energy.
As time slowly passed, Song Chi could hear captains increasingly unable to withstand the intensifying heat stumble off the platform.
However, he did not open his eyes, as he himself was also in discomfort.
Gradually, only Fifth Rank Battleship Captains remained on the entire platform, as all Zhulu Warship Captains had left.
About half an hour later, Battleship Captains began to struggle to continue, and with one person setting the precedent, more and more began to leave the platform.
