Chapter 1028: Return to the Fleet
Chapter 1028: Chapter 1028: Return to the Fleet
Chaos reigned within Sky Dragon City; the Sky Dragons had not yet returned. At such a time, really no one could spare the attention for them. Without Ultra Divine level divine consciousness, discovering the trace of the Treasure Hunting Beast would only be possible with a defensive shield. But Sky Dragon Planet was simply too massive, there evidently was no such comprehensive shielding.
Bursting into space, they located the Thirty-Three Skywing warship according to the original coordinates, and it was only after they boarded the warship and restarted it that everyone truly breathed a sigh of relief, including Lan Xuanyu.
No matter how confident and prepared he was, when he had been behind enemy lines, that sense of crisis had always been present.
Gazing out of the porthole at the colossal Sky Dragon Planet, especially in the direction of Sky Dragon City, Lan Xuanyu’s eyes narrowed slightly. The things hidden in the void above Sky Dragon City lingered in his mind, preventing him from calming down for a long time. What was it that was calling out to him? And what was the great danger there?
The Thirty-Three Skywing warship turned its course, not heading to meet with the Third Fleet, but instead, it accelerated and retreated, drawing closer to the direction of the Seventh Fleet.
Lan Xuanyu believed that it wouldn’t take long before the warship group that the Sky Domination Clan had originally planned against the federal fleet would likely arrive at Sky Dragon Planet. Only then would Sky Dragon Planet really become lively. Yes, he needed to return to the Seventh Fleet as soon as possible to report the situation in detail.
This matter was of great importance, so it was better to not use long-distance communication. In case the message got intercepted, all their efforts would have been in vain.
As they gradually left Sky Dragon Planet behind, everyone’s hearts finally relaxed completely.
This deep penetration behind enemy lines, first to No. 76 Planet of the Sky Domination Clan and then to Sky Dragon Planet—although there wasn’t a single real battle during the period, the tension and excitement for them were far more intense than any of their previous battles.
For safety’s sake, Lan Xuanyu turned off all communication systems on the Thirty-Three Skywing warship. The warship, in its most silent form, flew through space, heading straight for the Seventh Fleet.
Taking stock of this trip’s gains, the haul was extraordinarily abundant.
The most valuable, naturally, were the eleven high-purity Space Source Crystals. Lan Xuanyu highly doubted if the federation had gathered as many Space Source Crystals in total since they learned of their existence.
In addition, there was a large amount of magic silver and other various rare metals, many of which were specialties of the Dragon Horse Star System. There was also the Seven-Colored Gold which Lan Xuanyu valued greatly.
He had personally experienced the internal changes of the Seven-Colored Gold, and it was exactly as he had deduced without a single mistake; it was where all Seven Attributes converged. Enabling all Seven Attributes to complement each other was indeed not an easy feat.
These seven attributes within the Seven-Colored Gold were like a sphere, with silver, the spatial property, at its core. Inside the spatial layer were the Light and Darkness attributes enfolded within. Surrounding them were the complementary attributes of Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind, creating this unique existence.
The seven elements within the Seven-Colored Gold were incredibly stable, but Lan Xuanyu could feel that any change in the elements inside would lead to the disruption of this stability. The Seven-Colored Gold wouldn’t explode—it was, after all, just metal. But once destabilized, the elemental waves and spirituality would disappear in an instant. Thus, the Seven-Colored Gold would be wasted.
One could say that this was the most delicate metal Lan Xuanyu had ever seen. Hence, it was also the reason why it could only be used to make decorative items in the Dragon Horse Star System.
Even now that Lan Xuanyu had the capability of soul forging, he still couldn’t forge the Seven-Colored Gold because he could not simultaneously control the seven elements within it. This had nothing to do with his forging skill level.
To forge Seven-Colored Metal, Lan Xuanyu knew that the first thing he had to do was to possess all seven attributes. In other words, he had to wait until his cultivation reached the level of seven rings. Only when all seven elements were present could he ensure that the Seven-Colored Metal would not lose its spirituality during forging. Therefore, Seven-Colored Metal was not suitable for use during the creation of his Three-Word Battle Armor, but instead should be reserved for his Four-Word Battle Armor.
“The military has really treated us quite well this time, destroying No. 76 Planet and not blaming us, but instead covering for us under the guise of ignorance. This is certainly because the military does not want to completely fall out with the Dragon Horse Star System at this time. But it is also to protect us. The Seventh Fleet must have done a lot of work for this. It is only right to reciprocate. I plan to give one of the Space Source Crystals we obtained to the military, as well as the data and some metals and minerals that are not very useful to us but have research value, in exchange for merit. Does anyone have any objections?”
“Boss, it’s up to you,” Qian Lei said with a big smile.
“We didn’t do anything this time! Of course, Brother Xuanyu should decide,” Yuanen Huihui said with a cheerful smile.
Naturally, no one else had any objections.
Lan Xuanyu said, “Another reason to give this Space Source Crystal to the military is that we must return to our Mother Planet once. We have to send back the Void Bug. We can’t keep the Void Bug with us, one because it is not conducive to its growth, and the other is to avoid being detected by the Sky Domination Clan.”
“Is the environment on the Mother Planet suitable for its survival?” Bai Xiuxiu asked.
“I’ve discussed it with Ah Bao, and the environment on the Mother Planet should be fine. As long as we have enough magic silver to provide. The magic silver we brought back this time should be enough for it to eat for a year. It’s unknown how many Space Source Crystals it will produce. I plan to hand it over to Uncle Le. With Uncle Le’s cultivation, concealing its aura shouldn’t be a problem.”
Without a doubt, Master Le was the most trustworthy. Lan Xuanyu didn’t choose to give the Void Bug to the academy. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the academy, but because they needed substantial resources if they were to compete for the title of Shrek Seven Monsters in the future, and the existence of the Void Bug was their guarantee for those resources.
“This time you’re coming back with me, while the rest of the Thirty-Three Skywing will stay in service with the military. After our return, we’ll exchange some resources to bring back to them. All the Space Source Crystals will be given to the Tang Sect and the academy. We should be able to exchange them for many resources that we need for cultivation. We’ll use these resources to improve significantly and then return to the fleet.”
Qian Lei’s eyes lit up, “This is going to be much faster than exchanging resources garnered from Sky Fighter missions for cultivation. What a great method!”
Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes slightly, “This should be the fastest way for us to grow. I hope it can continue. This is also why we need to have an official identity on Sky Dragon Planet.”
A few days later, they finally saw the Warship Group of the Seventh Fleet, which had completed its assembly.
The potential appearance of a Sky Domination Clan fleet also put considerable pressure on the Seventh Fleet. The combat capability of the Sky Domination Clan fleet was not necessarily strong, but the problem was their ability for Spatial Jumps, which could make them appear and disappear unpredictably, especially after the destruction of No. 76 Planet. Who knew if the Sky Domination Clan would go berserk?
So now, the Seventh Fleet was in full defensive formation, continuing to gather resources not far from the Sky Horse Star, but it was the entire fleet carrying out the resource gathering. It was slower, but much safer.
The Thirty-Three Skywing Warship deactivated Ghost Mode, and the Communication System was turned on.
“Dragon Three, Dragon Three. This is Thirty-Three Skywing, please respond if you receive this,” Lan Xuanyu called out to Dragon Three.
Before long, the large screen flashed, revealing the face of Yan Xinghe.
Seeing Lan Xuanyu, Yan Xinghe’s face darkened, “What’s going on with you, kid? Why did you lose communication? Do you realize that this is extremely dangerous within the military? It means you could have been destroyed or captured by the enemy. Even if you have returned, you’ll have to undergo a complete physical examination and review.”
