Song Chi nodded, signaling that he was fine.

After greeting everyone once more, he logged out directly.

As for what the Star Tower members thought, he did not know, but he indeed did not take the matter too seriously.

From beginning to end, Song Chi was well aware of one truth: he had never been a prodigious genius with astounding comprehension; it was solely due to the existence of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market that he had reached his current level.

This could be seen from the progress of his Spatial Law comprehension, for if it weren't for using several Space Law Fruits, his Spatial Law Comprehension Degree would probably be at most 0.2%.

In terms of Law and secret technique comprehension, he had always been mediocre.

In the Underground Warship Summoning Room, on the Warship Main Control Room, Song Chi refocused his mind and looked at the messages continuously popping up on the Shaking Light Star Rank. He quickly replied with a message.

[Shaking Light Star Rank Chat Group]

[Number 3 "Corpse Dog": @Waking of Insects, it's normal not to comprehend the secret technique on your first encounter with the Chaos Stele, so don't take it too hard.]

[Number 16 "Lan Cang": +1, don't overthink, we're basically all the same.]

...

[Number 32 "Waking of Insects": Don't worry, no big issues!]

Although he seemed relaxed, it was false to say that Song Chi did not feel a bit of disappointment; after all, he was aware that given his levels of comprehension, it was highly likely that he would fail to comprehend the "Shaking Light Star Arrival" secret technique on the second and third attempts as well.

It was only because of his previous trial achievements, which provided him with double the comprehension opportunities of the Shaking Light Chaos Stele, that he found some solace.

Moreover, he hoped that the "Heavenly Demon Phoenix Marrow" could provide a chance to improve not only his Genetic Bloodline Talent but also his comprehension ability, although he knew it would be difficult, it was still a possibility.

Folding away the Shaking Light Star Rank, and without doing anything else, Song Chi sat cross-legged within the warship, beginning to fully assimilate the insights he had gained from his recent experience with the Shaking Light Chaos Stele.

Although he did not master the secret technique during this comprehension session, the Chaos Stele always had more than just secret techniques to inherit; it bore various inscriptions of the Law and Dao, and Song Chi's comprehension of the Spatial Law had significantly improved.

Before this, his Spatial Law Comprehension Degree was 0.48%, and this comprehension session added about 0.04%. If he could digest this properly, he might add another 0.01% afterward.

Although a 0.04% or 0.05% increase seemed minimal, if looked at from another perspective, the improvement was indeed considerable.

As mentioned before, a Primordial Secret Realm like the Dragon Spine, known for greatly enhancing Law comprehension, would normally require about eight years to improve one's Spatial Law comprehension by about 0.1%.

This meant that Song Chi, having spent just an hour comprehending the Shaking Light Chaos Stele, achieved what would take four years of solitary meditation in a Primordial Secret Realm.

Half a month later, Song Chi's Spatial Law Comprehension Degree successfully reached 0.53%, and he was extremely pleased with this.

Taking this Spatial Law Comprehension Degree into account, along with the subsequent augmentation by the "Heavenly Demon Phoenix Marrow" and the 20-fold amplitude, his Spatial Law Comprehension would directly breakthrough 10%.

That meant once he advanced to Fourth Rank, his Spatial Law would immediately reach Minor Accomplishment, placing him within the top 10% of all newly promoted Fourth Rank Torch Captains in the Torch Human Civilization Territory.

"However, all of this is contingent on securing that Heavenly Demon Phoenix Marrow!"

Thinking of this, Song Chi's eyes became exceptionally cold.

The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Marrow was key to compensating for his insufficient talent, and no matter what, he had to obtain it. If any creatures in the Spirit Beast Secret Realm were to block him, even a Fifth Rank Exotic Beast would have to die.

...

In the following months, Song Chi put everything aside and focused on training in the Guidance Technique and comprehending Spatial Law in the ruins market.

Today, less than a month was left before the "Pusuo Time Realm," "Heaven Tilt · Dome Sky Automatic Control System," and other ultimate Feature cooldowns were completed on the Cangqiong.

This also meant that Cangqiong would soon recover its full combat power, and the exploration of the "Immortal Realm Continent Fragment" was getting closer.

In the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, in front of the Ultra Long-Distance Space Gate Random Deployment Platform, Song Chi confirmed and activated the device.

As the triple-digit number of ethereal space gateways slowly formed at the entrance to the ruins market, the final transaction in the ruins market before exploring the Immortal Realm Continent officially began.

As expected, the first to appear in the ruins market was Goblin Luke, always punctual.

As usual, after entering the ruins market, Luke headed straight for the mineral resource shop.

Soon, the monthly transaction of two million Terrastones was completed. Clutching his signature hand-held Space Folding Box, Luke walked out of the mineral resource shop satisfied.

Over twenty years, the randomly tossed Terrastones had been accumulating in number, causing the prices in Viscount Thor's Mansion's secret trading channels to drop continually. Yet, even so, Luke enjoyed it, as Viscount Thor's Mansion was always profitable, albeit not by much.

With the Terrastone transaction completed, Luke soon noticed a few suspicious Alien Species entering the ruins market through the space gateway. However, Luke did not hurry to deal with these limited numbers of Alien Species but went directly to the ruins market sale shops.

In the past year or two, he increasingly noticed that these stalls often had some good items because the lower-class Alien Species had limited knowledge, thereby making chances of snagging a bargain quite significant.
