Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 457 - 244: Orange Glory [Taiyi Soul-Suppressing Stele]_2

One of these three items emitted a purple light, while the other two glowed with an orange hue.

A few people exchanged glances, and then the sect master spoke:

"A hundred-thousand-year-old Thunderstruck Wood, the purple quality of heaven and earth treasures is probably not enough. Zhou Ping, you should take these two orange quality treasures back to the Ruins Market and see if either can catch the eye of the Ruins Market Lord."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

...

In the midst of the Ruins Market, just as Song Chi was getting a little anxious, Zhou Ping finally walked out from the third floor of the inn.

Returning to the general store, he did not dawdle. With a slap on his storage bag, an object emitting a thick orange glow appeared in his hand.

Outside, in front of a stall in the free trading area, Song Chi, disguised as a "humanoid alien race," murmured to himself:

"As expected of a Fifth Rank Daoist Sect, a Divinity Transformation Sect, to offer an orange quality divine soul defense strange object..."

Muttering to himself, his heart was filled with excitement. Having an orange quality spiritual defense component would make his upcoming journey to the Evil Buddha Continent much safer.

However, when the Power of Laws enveloped the Starry Sea strange object, a chill settled in his heart.

[Strange Object: Soul-calming Stone]

[Quality: Orange]

[Convertible: No]

[Note: A strange mineral stone bred in the unique environment of the Primordial Continent, it has a singular purpose.]

"It can’t be transformed into ship components..."

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. At this moment, one could imagine the frustration in Song Chi’s heart. He had thought he would acquire something that could ensure a safe journey on the Evil Buddha Continent, but in the end, it was all for naught.

[Does not meet the requirements!]

After a brief reply, the Power of Laws in the shop circulated, preparing to retrieve the [Ruins Market Walking Command] from Zhou Ping’s hand. But at that moment, he swiftly took out another object glowing with orange light.

Compared to the first [Soul-calming Stone], this second orange-light emitting strange object was larger, more like a special stone pier.

Once Song Chi sent his Power of Laws over to it, this time it finally gave him a huge surprise.

[Strange Object: Soul Subduing Stone Eye]

[Quality: Orange]

[Convertible: {Taiyi Soul-Suppressing Stele}]

[Note: A cornerstone of the Soul Cleansing Great Formation from the Primordial Continent’s Taiyi Sect, which has suppressed the formation for countless years. Bathed in the baptism of the endless soul-cleansing power, it finally turned into a rare orange quality treasure.]

Together with the Power of Laws, Song Chi’s Spectral Energy also quickly touched the stone pier, simultaneously acquiring the attributes of the corresponding ship component.

Taiyi Soul-Suppressing Stele lv0

Quality: Orange

Feature: Soul Subduing Stele

Feature 2: Soul-sealing Mark

Consumption: 10/s (Spectral Energy Points)

Effect: Once equipped, it will automatically generate a Soul-sealing Aura inside the starship that corresponds to the enhancement rank, capable of defending against most methods aimed at divine souls (spiritual, soul).

UpRank Requirement: 10 wisps of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, 1000 Spectral Energy Points, 10kg Soul Crystal

{Soul Subduing Stele: Upon being installed on the warship, a phantom Soul Subduing Stele will automatically condense within the captain’s Ancestral Torch, possessing the ability to protect the spiritual mind and resist external spiritual attacks}

{Soul-sealing Mark: Consumes 2000 Spectral Energy Points, allows the user to cast a Soul-sealing Mark on a designated target within a 3-meter range, sealing the target’s spirit and mildly affecting their reaction speed}

Without a doubt, the Taiyi Soul-Suppressing Stele was exactly what Song Chi had been looking for; however, its second feature seemed somewhat superfluous. In an era of starship duels, what was the point of a 3-meter range?

Moreover, he estimated that the growth value of this feature wouldn’t be high, given its already evident starting point.

Song Chi couldn’t help but feel some regret. If this second feature had been a bit better, the component would have undoubtedly been top rank, but he didn’t reject it.

After all, the chances of finding another orange-quality spiritual mind defense component in the short term were slim to none, and more importantly, compared to the second feature, the first feature was excellent—absolutely a top-rank feature.

Originally, the effect of the [Taiyi Soul-Suppressing Stele] was limited in scope, only working within the warship. Once the warship was recalled or if one strayed too far from it, the captain would no longer enjoy the effects of the Divine Soul Guard.

However, this first feature had nothing to do with proximity. As long as he remained the owner of Cang Qiong, the phantom Soul Subduing Stele left in his mind by the other party would never vanish. Combined with the Seed of Torch’s enhancement, this protective effect would be far superior than the ordinary.

To this, although Song Chi inwardly agreed, he did not give a clear response.

As an avid reader of novels in his previous life, he knew well how crucial thunderstruck wood is in Daoist and Immortal Sects, let alone those aged for a terrifying hundred thousand years.

Therefore, his reply was brief.

[Not enough!]

Those two words conveyed a lot; most importantly, that while the [Soul Stone Eye] met his requirements, it wasn’t valuable enough.

To put it simply, the price had to be raised!

As for this, the Luofu Sword Sect had already made preparations. Zhou Ping quickly took out a large black cloth bag from his storage bag.

Compared to the usual bags that held 50 titanium crystals, this bag was clearly much more bulging. When the Power of Laws swept over it, Song Chi’s eyes brightened slightly.

1000 titanium crystals.

"My lord, what do you think of 1000 titanium crystals plus this ’Soul Stone Eye’?"

Song Chi was silent for a moment before he controlled the projection screen to reply.

[Acceptable!]

In addition to that, Zhou Ping also exchanged for the ten-thousand-year-old Wooden Spirit Flower and the thousand-year-old Vermilion Fruit. This time, he did not use titanium crystals nor Starry Sea Oddities, but what was known as Spiritual Mechanism in the Primordial Continent and Floating Land Origin in the Shattered Starry Sea.

100 threads of Third-Rank Floating Land Origin + 5 threads of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin.

After the continuous exchanges of the three items, Song Chi, watching from a god’s perspective, had an epiphany. A brand new channel for trading suddenly sprung up in his mind.

From the choices Zhou Ping made, Song Chi deduced that the Primordial Continent was nearly identical to the novels he had read in his past life—they urgently needed all sorts of Spirit Grass and Spirit Fruits to concoct various miraculous elixirs.

Even though 99.9% of these elixirs could only be consumed by them, ineffective for outsiders, this did not impede their demand for various kinds of Spirit Grass.

And this was the new trading channel Song Chi mentioned.

Ordinary elixirs could not be resold, but the various Spirit Grasses and Spirit Fruits they needed were completely unrestricted.

How vast was Dragon Spine Continent with its countless flora? And how many medium-low level Floating Lands were under the control of the Song Family?

If he could truly cultivate and collect the Spirit Grass and Spirit Fruits that were extremely scarce in the Primordial Continent, initiating trade with them, certainly, it would prove to be a trading channel of astonishing potential—perhaps even surpassing the monthly Terrastone deals with Goblin Luke.

Goblin Luke’s backing, the Viscount’s Mansion, had long been in decline, with limited energy behind it, hence the capacity to absorb only a certain amount of Terrastones. The Luofu Sword Sect, however, was a real Divinity Transformation Sect of the Fifth Rank.

The Sect controlled an entire realm of Luofu, with energy at its disposal, sales channels, and demands that the Viscount’s Mansion backing Luke could never match. If this sustainable trading channel came into fruition, Song Chi’s future earnings would be remarkable.

And another key point was that he had recorded the Spirit Grasses and Fruits Zhou Ping had deliberately acquired in the past. With this, he could target his collections and pricing more effectively, maximizing benefits.
