Chapter 1182: Chapter 628: [Picking Up the Leak Operation]_2

According to the scouts arranged by the Song Family early on over in the Silver Disk River System, including the information provided by the Pan Family under Song Chi’s command, the advancing fleet is currently attacking a new river system of the Eight-Armed Snake Demon Civilization, and it is at a critical stage.

[Dinghai Dragon Steed Encrypted Communication Group Chat]

Song Xingru: “How about this ‘Poison Snake Floating Land’ then!”

Song Yan: “This ‘Poison Snake Floating Land’ is the capital floating land of the Poison Snake River System, and its floating land level is close to the seventh level peak. If we can really go and plunder it thoroughly, we might indeed have a significant gain!”

Song Shiyuan: “I oppose this idea. Although the abundant resources of this Poison Snake Floating Land are tempting, it’s still a piece of seventh-level peak floating land. Right now it’s the most intense point in the river system war, so its Floating Land Shield must always be activated. With just our five warships, it’s hard to say if we can even breach its Floating Land Shield.”

“Furthermore, it’s uncertain whether there is a Snake Demon Dominator guarding it. Given the strength of our five warships, along with Xiao Chi’s Ruin Market Projection, it’s safer to choose an ordinary seventh-level Floating Land!”

Seeing that there was still no clear answer, Song Wujiang turned his gaze towards Song Chi.

“Xiao Chi, what do you think?”

Song Chi thought for a while and eventually leaned toward the Prime Ancestor’s suggestion.

After hearing his thoughts, Song Wujiang then said:

“In that case, let’s go for this [Withered Snake Floating Land]!”

…

The Withered Snake Floating Land is located in the northwest of the Poison Snake River System and is one of the less conspicuous pieces of seventh-level floating land in the system.

On this day, in the starry sky outside the Withered Snake Floating Land, several beams of light, red or silver, suddenly shot out. Although these beams travel at an incredible speed, just judging from their diameter, one can ascertain that the might they carry is very limited.

This scene was captured midway by the eight-armed snake demons patrolling within the Floating Land Shield, but it did not garner much attention. After all, beams of light shooting from the sky that posed little harm were not uncommon in the past.

However, as the beams drew closer, the patrolling snake demons gradually realized that the beams were all targeting the same point on the Floating Land Shield, and it was clearly no coincidence.

But by the time they thought to stop it, it was already too late.

Swish, swish, swish!

Several beams successively landed on the same spot of the Floating Land Shield. Although each individual beam only triggered a trivial ripple on the shield, the successive hits still caused a change at the contact point on the Floating Land Shield.

It could be clearly seen that as the beams touched down one after another, this local area of the [Withered Snake Floating Land]’s Floating Land Shield noticeably dimmed.

If it were just that, it wouldn’t matter, as a seventh-level floating land could instantly restore itself to normal.

But evidently, that was not the case here.

Inside the Withered Snake Floating Land, countless eight-armed snake demons showed extreme fear in their serpent pupils.

They raised their heads, their gaze fixed on the outer space beyond the Floating Land Shield above them.

Following their gaze, they saw that coming fast behind the red and silver beams was a massive purple mist hand bearing down quickly from above.

The rapid friction between two different types of energy caused a circle of red flames to flicker on the surface of the purple mist hand.

However, this did not affect the motion of the purple mist hand, and soon, the hand, over hundreds of thousands of kilometers in length, directly pressed down on the dim spot on the Floating Land Shield.

Crack, crack, crack!

As more and more spiderweb-like cracks began to appear on the Withered Snake Floating’s Floating Land Shield, the hearts of countless eight-armed snake demons inside also cracked with terror.

The outcome did not alter with their prayers. The illusory hand, composed of energies from space, light, and purple mist, ultimately tore through the Withered Snake Floating Land’s Floating Land Shield from a single point.

In the depths of the distant starry sky, the five warships, which had already revealed themselves due to the shield-breaking attack, began to show space fluctuations around their hulls, and the next moment, the five warships disappeared, then reappeared on the surface of the Withered Snake Floating Land.

Song Wujiang: “Divide and act; I’m heading to the Northern Snake Demon Holy City. Xiao Chi, Xingru, you head for the Eastern Snake Demon Holy City. Shiyuan and Xiaoyan, you go west; we’ll regroup at the central Withered Snake Holy City.”

“Alright, Xiaoyan, let’s go!”

“Xiao Chi!”

“Coming.”

…

The Eastern Snake Demon Holy City on the Withered Snake Floating Land.

When the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship and the Purple Moon Long Song Warship Avatar arrived, the first thing that came into view above the city was the halo of a bright white city shield.

Though this city shield was far less exaggerated than the Floating Land Shield, it was indeed a genuine seventh-level shield, and breaking through it wasn’t simply straightforward.

“Ru Zu, hold on!”

Seeing the crimson warship on the left impatiently charging the ship cannon, Song Chi quickly called out.

The next second, he activated the [Purusa Zen Seal] component in the Image Warship. Under the “speed” feature, the previously used [Sky-breaking Spike] component was once again activated.

Subsequently, a familiar narrow silver light shot out from the Image Warship. When the silver light touched the city shield below, it instantly dimmed the city shield over this Eastern Holy City.

Seeing this, Song Chi’s lips curled up; the effect of the [Sky-breaking Spike] with Silver Quality is indeed different.

Of the three Silver Apples produced in the second batch before, the first was used on the [Four Symbols Wheel Seal], while the remaining two were respectively enhanced for the [Sky-breaking Spike] and [Life System Medical Repair Pod].

This time, the lv70-enhanced [Sky-breaking Spike] was used for the first time, and with the specially selected feature from before, the effect was evidently somewhat extraordinary.

Sky-breaking Spike lv70

Quality: Silver

Feature: Break

Feature 2: Increases the loaded warship’s space resistance by 6400

Feature 3: Doubles the effect of the first component’s feature

Feature 4: Increases the concentration of spatial energy inside the loaded warship by 50%

Consumption: 1224/s (Spectral Energy Points)

Effect: When the loaded warship deals damage to spatial blockade-type barriers like shields, the might is increased by an additional 100%

Requires no charge or buffer

…

{Break: Consumes 50,000 Spectral Energy Points; induces a Sky-breaking Light on a special barrier at a specified distance no more than 100km from the loaded warship, such as a spatial barrier, energy shield, or floating land shield, tearing an opening in the barrier. The duration depends on the target barrier’s strength, with a cooldown time of 48 hours.}

After the brief surprise, Song Chi exchanged a glance with Ru Zu in the group chat, then both simultaneously triggered multiple powerful attack methods from the warship avatars.

In less than a few minutes, the Eastern Holy City on the Withered Snake Floating Land was heavily bombarded. After another ten or so minutes, the originally much-weakened city shield could finally no longer hold and shattered entirely.

At the moment the city shield shattered, several Sixth Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons charged out from the Snake Demon Holy City.

They activated their [Snake Demon Dharma Body], opened their [Eight-Armed Snake Prison], among other divine skills, and a blood-red energy wave surged around them, thrusting them into a state of burning life.

Evidently, these few Sixth Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons identified the remarkable combat power of Song Chi and his group and initially played all their cards, attempting to engage in mutual destruction with the two warship avatars.

However, Song Chi had no time to tangle with them. The Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship’s cabin door opened, and the next moment, a Six-Star Ancient Demon stepped out.

[Heavenly Authority Control Ring]: “Enslavement Mark: Frenzy” activated!

As this feature was activated, the body of the Six-Star Ancient Demon began to swell rapidly, finally entering the Seventh Rank Level in terms of presence.

What followed was naturally a one-sided slaughter by the frenzied ancient demon. Even though those Sixth Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons possessed multiple boosts from the Floating Land Origin Will, Eight-Armed Snake Prison, Snake Demon Dharma Body, and life burning, they could only elevate themselves to the Sixth Rank Peak level, incomparable to the frenzied ancient demon.

In less than twenty minutes, nearly all the Fifth Rank and Sixth Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons in the entire Eastern Holy City had been slaughtered.
