The thought of that being a power player from his own family left Song Chi unable to calm his heart for a long time.
Although the two Fire Peony Soldier Figurines soon completely vanished into nothingness under the onslaught of that overpowering fiery energy, before the brainwave beacon faded away, Song Chi still witnessed the scene where the ten-thousand-meter mech armor projection easily suppressed the black mecha of the Moruo Clan.
He had been utterly astounded by the terrifying size of the Moruo Royal Family's Fourth Rank mecha upon its arrival, yet he had not anticipated it to be so easily defeated in front of his ancestor's mech armor projection—that was actually the most shocking aspect for Song Chi's heart.
Compared to the engraving map deep within his own mind, the profound shock brought by today's ten-thousand-meter mech armor projection seen with his own eyes was tenfold, a hundredfold greater.
Of course, this is not to say that the engraving map in his mind was no longer important; these two things actually are not comparable. One is a secret method for refining the spiritual self, and the other is the physical projection upon reaching a higher rank. While the latter brings a far more intense visual impact than the former, it cannot replace the former to aid one in cultivating.
Once his heart settled down again, Song Chi started to make inquiries to his grandmother by his side.
Listening to his description, Bai Xiuqin knitted her brows and appeared somewhat uncertain for a moment.
"Mech armor projection, Dragon Whale phantom..."
It wasn't that she was unfamiliar with the ancient ones of the clan, rather Song Chi's description was too vague. Members of the Dinghai Song family lineage who were above Fourth Rank generally possessed these two characteristics, making it difficult to determine who it was.
Not until Song Chi added two more details did Bai Xiuqin's face show sudden realization, and she found the answer in her heart. Continue your adventure at mvl
"If it's more than ten thousand meters in size and wields a green longsword over three thousand meters long... then that should indeed be 'Prime Ancestor' sir," she said.
Hearing the words "Prime Ancestor," not only Song Chi but also Song Qi on the side, and Song Lin, Song Wen, and Song You, who had since recovered, all cast curious glances.
There was no helping it. For those youngsters who were still considered juniors, the character "ancestor" was undoubtedly a high-status buzzword. Those who bore this suffix were often absolute powerhouses within their respective forces.
Regarding the curiosity of her grandchildren, Bai Xiuqin just gave a light glance and didn't say much more.
She simply told them that the "Prime Ancestor" was a senior ancestor from the main lineage of the family and sternly warned them to never show any disrespect towards this ancestor, not even verbally.
Seeing that his grandmother had no intention of elaborating, Song Chi gradually suppressed his curiosity and shifted his attention to the secret realm they were in.
Looking around in all directions, Song Chi noticed that the space within the Moruo Secret Realm seemed not much different from the outer starry sky.
Strictly speaking, it was more akin to an independent starry sky sealed off from the outside world, surrounded by the same pitch-black vacuum, the only difference being the Starry Sea Floating Land they stood upon.
After only a cursory look, Song Chi didn't know the full extent of the Floating Land beneath his feet, but judging by the fact that his First Rank Spectral Energy-enhanced eyes couldn't see its end, it clearly was not a common fragment or small asteroid. It was either a massive Floating Land Fragment or a complete Starry Sea Floating Land.
Moreover, unlike those Floating Lands in the outer Starry Sea, this one beneath their feet was covered with all kinds of ancient vegetation, with sky-high ancient trees thousands of meters tall almost everywhere.
Out of curiosity, Song Chi specially summoned Cang Qiong and traveled up tens of thousands of meters into the sky; yet this single glance truly startled him.
The diameter of the Floating Land below was far greater than he had imagined, as even from tens of thousands of meters up, he still couldn't see its end.
If it were placed in the outer Starry Sea, it would definitely qualify as a second, perhaps even a third level Floating Land.
Besides, among those dense, high-reaching ancient trees, there were occasional ones reaching three to five thousand meters, even ten thousand meters tall, which could obscure the sky.
As his gaze swept over trees of such caliber, terms like "home tree, world tree…" unconsciously surfaced in Song Chi's mind.
But these were merely lingering memories from his past life wreaking havoc; such colossal trees naturally did not have such miraculous powers, but were only able to grow to such an extent due to sufficiently long periods of growth in the original environment of the Moruo Secret Realm.
That said, such ten-thousand-meter tall ancient trees were indeed enough to shock anyone, for Song Chi had only seen plant life of such size listed in textbooks of stellar flora before.
When Cang Qiong was descended again, a spatial fluctuation came from the entrance to the secret realm just in time—it was Song Mingsong, who had just finished cleaning up the aftermath.
Upon seeing Song Mingsong enter, everyone hurried to meet him and inquired about the battle situation outside.
Song Mingsong gave a brief explanation, generally stating that the battle had ended and that the Fourth Rank Moruo Space-Escape Mech had been dealt with. Then, with a serious expression, he firmly added:
"Try to inform the eldest and the others that we will only stay in this secret realm for 24 hours. After 24 hours, once the entrance to the secret realm is destroyed, we'll withdraw immediately.
In this one day, how many resources you can collect in this secret realm is up to your own abilities. But remember one thing, any damage to the environment within the secret realm is strictly prohibited."
Hearing Song Mingsong finish speaking, Song Chao and Song Yang beside him flashed a look in their eyes, as if they had something to say but ultimately held back.
