Global Era of Star trekking

```

All these magic artifacts could only be activated with mana, which held little attraction to the various Starry Sea Alien Races; what really interested them were the various types of minerals on the stalls, many of which were extremely rare in other Star Domains.

Besides that, there were those bottles and jars called "elixirs."

In the mouths of the disciples from the Pure Yang Sword Sect, the effects of these elixirs were exceptionally rare and hard to find, which is why some Alien Races thought to experiment with them.

However, these elixirs, refined by the cultivators of the Primordial Continent over ten thousand years to perfectly suit their own kind, how could they work so easily on Alien Races with completely different life essences?

Sure enough, there was an Alien Race that took an elixir supposedly for healing wounds, but not only did it fail to heal the already injured part, it directly caused stomach trouble, triggering the earlier commotion.

Song Chi quickly stood up from his own stall and walked toward the stalls of the Pure Yang Sword Sect disciples.

In his previous life, he read numerous novels about immortality, and he was extremely interested in the famous alchemy and elixirs of the Cultivation World.

Of course, curiosity was just one aspect; he also had another idea in mind.

Although the energy systems they practiced were different, after all, both were part of the Starry Sea human group. Even if their body structures weren't completely the same, they couldn't be too different. Perhaps the elixirs effective for cultivators could also work on him?

With this thought, Song Chi quickly arrived at a few stalls, and still using the Power of Laws, he easily made his way to the very front. He reached out with his pale, bloodless "vampire" arm and picked up a jade vial from the stall.

Pop!

Opening the stopper, Song Chi brought the vial to his nose and sniffed.

At the same time, deep in his brow, within the Ancestral Torch, the Cang Qiong in its mini form was activated.

The semi-automatic shipboard intelligence was activated.

[Beep, receiving captain's command, beginning analysis of item composition, analysis progress 1%, 2%, 3%...]

[Beep, analysis progress 100%, analysis complete, current item composition as follows: Star Leaf Grass, Zhu Fruit...]

[Analysis complete, starting to analyze the compatibility and conflicts of the item's various ingredients...]

...

[Final analysis complete, this item causes moderate damage to the body of a Zero Rank Torch Ship Captain, light damage to the body of a First Rank Torch Ship Captain, harmless to a Second Rank Torch Ship Captain...]

Putting down the vial of healing potion in his hand, Song Chi immediately picked up another white jade porcelain vial and began the same operation.

[Beep, receiving captain's command, beginning analysis of item composition, analysis progress 1%...]

...

Like this, Song Chi continued the same operation for several minutes, but the results were not encouraging. Nearly all the elixirs had side effects on the body of a Torch Ship Captain and provided no benefits.

"As expected, aside from resources, most items within different energy systems of races are not interchangeable," Song Chi thought of a phrase from his past textbooks. Yet, he did not cease the movements of his hands, still holding considerable hope for this world of immortal cultivation known as the Primordial Continent.

Because of the influence of those immortality novels from his previous life, he was well aware of the importance of elixirs. As long as he could find one that could work for a Torch Ship Captain, no matter its Rank, it would certainly possess enormous potential value.

Whether it was healing, enhancing cultivation speed, prolonging life, or others.

Behind each of these possibilities lay an unimaginable vast fortune.

The Torch Human Civilization was immense, with a citizenry numbering in the trillions, creating a terrifyingly large market.

Another several minutes passed, and Song Chi's face had gone from initial anticipation to complete silence, not a hint of surprise to be found—entirely harmful, without exception.

```

He mechanically picked up a porcelain vial from the stall in front of the third disciple of the Pure Yang Sword Sect again, then opened the stopper.

However, this time was different from before; the vial no longer contained individual elixirs but a liquid with a faint pungent odor.

In his confusion, the disciple in front of him explained,

"This is a Body Tempering Liquid, for external use. Just smear it on the skin, and it can gradually enhance one's physical body."

Hearing the explanation, Song Chi nodded without saying anything, listening intently to the semi-automatic shipboard intelligence's notification tone that only he could hear.

There was more anticipation in his eyes than before. The previous elixirs all required ingestion and then working in conjunction with the mana inside a cultivator's body to take effect, so they were not beneficial to Torch Ship Captains who practiced Spectral Energy; in fact, they were harmful. What about this externally applied medicinal liquid then?

Surely it didn't also require mana to be effective?

As he mused, the notification tone in his ear gradually came to an end.

[Analysis of compatibility and conflict between the item's ingredients is 100%, with no conflicts.]

[Final analysis completed. This item has a significant tempering effect on the body of a Zero Rank Torch Ship Captain, a moderate tempering effect on a First Rank Torch Ship Captain, and is ineffective on a Second Rank or higher Torch Ship Captain.]

When Song Chi heard this final result, it took him a good while to recover, followed immediately by extreme excitement.

Having a quite strong tempering effect on the bodies of Torch Ship Captains meant that this item could be used in conjunction with Body Tempering Potions in the Torch Human Civilization, thereby greatly accelerating the training speed of Torch students, as well as many Torch Ship Captains, in their Guidance Technique.

As for the ultimate outcome of this, Song Chi couldn't predict too much just yet, as he still didn't fully understand the specifics of this Body Tempering Liquid's effects.

However, what was certain was that it could definitely further improve the success rate of Torch Awakenings within Torch Human Civilization and also somewhat accelerate the advancement speed of Torch Ship Captains. In the long run, the overall strength of Torch Human Civilization would inevitably be further enhanced.

Correspondingly, as an intermediary, Song Chi would inevitably reap the largest share of the profits.

Taking a deep breath, Song Chi regained his composure and began to inquire about the Body Tempering Liquid in his hand.

"How much is this Body Tempering Liquid? Do you have something better?"

At the same time, he was rapidly considering other issues.

First, although the Body Tempering Liquid had initially passed the shipboard intelligence's analysis, it was still uncertain whether it had any harm, or if it truly benefited the cultivation of a Torch Ship Captain's Guidance Technique. This was something that still needed to be tested with a physical specimen.

He couldn't rush this and wouldn't test it on himself, but he could buy some Torch Ship Captains with blood on their hands from the black market to serve as test subjects.

Moreover, if it truly worked for Torch Ship Captains, then he would also have to include this Body Tempering Liquid in the dealings with Zhou Ping.

Additionally, how to resell this Body Tempering Liquid was also a problem; he might need to discuss it with his dad and grandfather afterward.

Putting aside these various thoughts, the disciple of the Pure Yang Sword Sect in front of him also responded.

"This is just the lowest level of Body Tempering Liquid, only effective for First Rank (Qi Cultivation) beings, sold for 3 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin per vial. I also have Second Rank Body Tempering Paste, but it's much more expensive, costing 20 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin per box."

Song Chi nodded, finally taking ten vials of the First Rank Body Tempering Liquid and only one box of the Second Rank Body Tempering Paste.

It wasn't that he didn't want to buy more, but that each of the disciples of the Pure Yang Sword Sect only had one box.

After the purchase, as Song Chi turned to leave, the faces of the Pure Yang Sword Sect disciples all showed subtle smiles.

Whether it was the Body Tempering Liquid or the Body Tempering Paste, they had marked up the price threefold, and including the other items sold at the stall, each of them had already made a considerable profit.

The subtle smiles on their faces were all observed by Song Chi, but he didn't mind. It was normal for them to sell at a marked-up price - others needed to make money too, after all. Besides, once he completed the tests later and confirmed the effects of the Body Tempering Liquid, he would earn even more.
