Global Era of Star Trekking

Upgrading the Golden Torch Seed, Song Chi naturally focused on enhancing the eighth-rank components.

Thus, his gaze was fixed solely on the golden, black, and colorful components aboard the warship.

Colorful: [Time Chessboard]

Black: [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] [Black Hole Evolution Layer] [Void Sea Projection Emperor Tomb] [Divine Thought Chapter]

Gold: [Purple Cloud Divine Thunder Cannon] [Blood Spear] [Neutron Star Core Armor] [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield] [Heavenly Eye] [Purusa Zen Seal] [Heavenly Authority Control Ring] [Angel Sovereign Wings] [Heavenly Frost Crown] [Blood Battle Stele] [Mythical Giant Python’s Eternal Protection Scale] [Heavenly Destiny Compass·Disk]

The 17 components listed above were all that he focused on.

Among them, [Black Hole Evolution Layer] and [Angel Sovereign Wings] were directly excluded, as both had already been enhanced to Level 80 by the forefather. For this, he and Song Yan each provided 20 portions of Dominant True Spirit to the forefather.

Now, the Dominant True Spirit he still possessed was not abundant, totaling only 63 portions.

After calculations, he could only enhance six components to the eighth rank. Including the already Level 79 [Heavenly Authority Control Ring], the maximum was seven components.

Out of 15 components, only seven could be enhanced, so Song Chi naturally had to consider carefully.

The first one he decided on was the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] component.

Enhancing multiple components to the eighth rank would be impossible without sufficient energy supply.

10 portions of Dominant True Spirit + dozens of threads of Seventh Rank Floating Land Origin + 1 thread of Eighth Rank Floating Land Origin + a considerable amount of Titanium Crystal, [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] was successfully enhanced to Level 80.

Several of its features underwent significant changes.

Energy supply efficiency improved from 320% → 350% Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Engine thrust increased from 320% → 350%

The energy consumption of all warship components at or below the quality of this component decreased from 60% → 65%

Energy supply rate increased from 140,000/s → 175,000/s

Lastly, its Spectral Energy Pool, which was still 10 million at Level 70, directly soared to 15 million.

Additionally, post-Level 80, further enhancements would require 10 portions of Seventh Rank Dominators’ Dominant True Spirit per instance unless using Eighth Level Dominators’ Dominant True Spirit, which only required 1 portion, making Song Chi shake his head.

After the engine, the second component he enhanced was [Mythical Giant Python’s Eternal Protection Scale]. Upon enhancing it to the eighth rank, the Shang family’s various remote searching and locating methods became no longer a concern.

Afterward, he successively enhanced three more components, namely [Time Chessboard], [Black Hole Evolution Layer], and [Blood Spear].

[Time Chessboard] Level 80

Quality: Colorful/Upper

Feature: Reduces the cooldown time of all loaded warship components by 75%

Feature 2: Time resistance +25,000

…

Feature 7: Enhances the efficiency of warship interiors in comprehending Time Law by 470%

Feature 8: Nine-Life Life and Death Chess

…

Furthermore, the duration and time acceleration of the “Time·Chessboard” feature were both improved. The Chessboard Domain constructed by at least 36 Time Chess pieces now had an acceleration of 50x, while 72 pieces resulted in an acceleration of 100x, with corresponding increments. The duration improved to 50 minutes, and its cooldown time decreased to just 120 hours.

The cooldown time of the “Time·Chess Game” feature was reduced to 60 years, while its duration increased to three and a half hours.

[Black Hole Evolution Layer] showcased a key upgrade as its Black Hole Energy soared from 30,000 points to 100,000 points.

As for [Blood Spear], upon reaching the eighth rank, this golden super main cannon’s damage became all the more terrifying.

Glancing away from these three components, Song Chi checked the Dominant True Spirit remaining in his possession—13 portions—along with 5 threads of Eighth Rank Floating Land Origin and Titanium Crystal, which were also running low.

For the last enhancement, Song Chi was torn between several options: [Purusa Zen Seal], [Neutron Star Core Armor], [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield], [Heavenly Eye], and [Blood Battle Stele].

In the end, he chose [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield].

Earlier enhancements to [Black Hole Evolution Layer] served as temporary substitutes for warship armor upgrades. As a captain who had “stability” ingrained in his very being, Song Chi naturally leaned toward enhancing [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield].

[Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield] Level 80

Quality: Gold

Features: Two Instruments · Damage Reduction

Feature 2: True Shield

Feature 3: Additional increase of shield value for energy shield by 320%

Feature 4: Additional increase of defense value by 320%

Feature 5: Yin Yang · Mutual Birth

Consumption: 5,200/s (Spectral Energy Points)

Protection: 5,250 billion

Shield Value: 110 trillion/110 trillion

Charge: 10 seconds; buffer time after overload: 30 minutes

…

{Two Instruments · Damage Reduction: The energy shield has Yin Yang balance capabilities and automatically reduces 70% of all external energy attacks.}

{True Shield: The energy shield possesses true defense attributes, nullifying standard shield-breaking and armor-piercing effects while partly diminishing the Might of true shield-breaking and true armor-piercing attacks.}

{Yin Yang · Mutual Birth: The energy shield is affected by Yin Yang balance effects. When the shield value of the energy shield is damaged, it automatically regenerates, restoring 2% of shield value per second.}

Looking at the enhanced Level 80 [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield] component, Song Chi was quite pleased. Apart from its impressive 70% damage reduction attribute, the final “Yin Yang · Mutual Birth” feature was extraordinarily potent.

Although the 2% regeneration might seem insignificant, the key lay in its per-second restoration rate. Calculating based on the shield value of the Level 80 [Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield], it could regenerate 22 trillion shield points per second.

To provide a clearer comparison: take the Level 70 [Bow of the Annihilation of All Spirits], this silver super main cannon as an example.

Its current attack damage was 1,205 billion. Even activating the potent “Arrow of Annihilation of Living Beings” attack feature, its max damage per shot would only reach slightly above 10 trillion. Factoring in the “Two Instruments · Damage Reduction” feature’s 70% damage reduction and the added defense from the “True Shield” feature, the Yin Yang Offsetting Annihilation Shield could recover completely within seconds.
