Chapter 136: Chapter 101: Starry Sea Secret Realm - Division of Ranks (Please Subscribe)
For a moment, Song Chi and the six others turned their eager, curious gazes in anticipation.
Song Hai and Song Chao exchanged a glance and then nodded subtly to each other.
In their view, since they had already brought the younger generation of the family here, it was naturally time to inform them of the family's mission. After all, as long as nothing unexpected happened on Song Shan's end, action would soon be underway, and letting the younger generation know now wouldn't be an issue.
However, before they spoke, Song Hai and Song Chao gave a serious instruction:
"If you want to know the family's ultimate goal, you can, but let it be known first that afterwards, not a single detail is to be revealed to outsiders. If you violate this, you will not be spared. Understood?!!"
"Understood!"
Seeing that the seven responded in unison, Song Chao said no more. All seven were the direct descendants of the family, and both men were willing to place their full trust in them.
The two exchanged another look, and then it was Song Chao who took the initiative to speak:
"You all know that this Star Region was once the core Star Domain of the Moruo Civilization. Our family previously received a top-secret message that the Moruo Civilization once had control over a secret realm."
The moment they heard the words "secret realm," the hearts of Song Chi and the six others began to beat faster instinctively. Having received formal Torch education, they were familiar with this term.
Especially Song Chi, because the Zhu Tian Ruins Market he controlled was a special kind of secret realm.
A secret realm, as the name suggests, is the general term for 'hidden and sealed environments' in the Starry Sea that are unknown to outsiders.
Due to their extreme secrecy and seclusion, these spaces typically preserve their most primitive environment from the time of their formation. Influenced by such an environment, the majority of secret realms have entirely different ecosystems from the outer world.
Over long periods of time, these unique ecosystems and environments give rise to all sorts of Starry Sea Oddities and exceedingly rare mineral and biological resources.
"Could it be that the Blood Blade Star Thieves got their hands on that secret realm?"
Song You's words came out rapidly, but his speculation was confirmed by Song Chao.
"Exactly, the Blood Blade Star Thieves have obtained the secret realm of the Moruo Civilization."
With Song Chao's affirmative response, the breathing of the seven became noticeably heavier.
This was a secret realm, an incredibly rare find. Their numbers were far fewer than the various civilizational relics in the Shattered Starry Sea, and it was for this reason that each secret realm was unimaginably valuable.
Even the lowest-level Shattered Secret Realm is worth no less than a Top Rank Purple Relic.
The secret realm that the Song Family had spent decades cautiously scheming to obtain could clearly not just be a low-ranked Shattered Secret Realm.
At this moment, Song Chi spoke up.
"Dad, what rank is the Moruo Civilization's secret realm?"
Song Chi's question indeed echoed the sentiments of Song Qi and the others beside him. For a moment, all seven of them focused intently on Song Chao, waiting expectantly for his answer.
According to common knowledge in the Shattered Starry Sea, the various secret realms within the Starry Sea are divided into four ranks, from lowest to highest based on their rarity and value:
Shattered Secret Realm, Starry Sea Secret Realm, Primordial Secret Realm, Cosmic Secret Realm.
Shattered Secret Realm: As the name implies, these are normal Starry Sea Secret Realms that have been damaged. The original environment within the secret realm has been affected, leading to substantial reductions in both the quality and quantity of resources produced.
Starry Sea Secret Realm: A type of secret realm created by the civilizations that emerged during the Starry Sea Era, rarely embodying both time and space Laws, cultivating secret realms with random Laws.
Primordial Secret Realm: Created by the primordial remnants of multiverse civilizations at the dawn of the Starry Sea Era, embodying one of the Laws of time or space.
Cosmic Secret Realm: A whole piece of a shattered multiverse, embodying the two major Laws of time and space, and containing all the essences of a universe's fragmentation, incalculably valuable.
Even just a Shattered Secret Realm can compare to a Purple Relic of Top Rank, and those whose internal environment is less damaged can match an Orange Glory Quality Starry Sea Oddity.
A Starry Sea Secret Realm, if it contains one of the Laws of time or space, is comparable to Red Epic Treasures.
As for the even higher-ranked Primordial Secret Realm and Cosmic Secret Realm, past textbooks did not record them in detail. However, judging from the value of a Starry Sea Secret Realm, their worth is surely far beyond that of Red Epic Treasures.
Song Chao was silent for a while before he couldn't withstand the intense gaze of the seven any longer and replied quickly:
"Based on our decades of secret investigation, there is a high probability that the secret realm is a Starry Sea Secret Realm."
With this revelation, Song Qi and the others could no longer hide their excitement. A Starry Sea Secret Realm, no matter its condition, would be equivalent to an Orange Quality Component. But Song Chao hadn't finished speaking yet; he continued to add:
Your journey continues at m v|l-e'm,p| y- r
"Moreover, it is a Starry Sea Secret Realm that contains the Space Law!"
"You've always wondered why the Blood Blade Star Thieves chose to build their lair in this void rift area, right? It's because the secret realm they possess produces a special mineral resource called 'Space Solidification Stone.'
Space Solidification Stone allows their residence to withstand damage from spatial rifts and the winds of space. When integrated into a Torch Warship, it gives the ship special spatial resistance, significantly reducing the danger of navigating through the void rifts."
Upon hearing this, everyone became even more astonished.
