Chapter 25: Father-Son Heart-to-Heart

Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Father-Son Heart-to-Heart

Having already been in deep sleep for twenty hours before, he had nearly gone two days without leaving his bedroom. Even though he had informed his parents in advance, to avoid worrying them, or even worse, them forcing the door open, he really needed to show his face.

In the living room, both Song Chi’s father and mother were present. As captains of the Torch Warship, they had no other work to attend to and usually spent a lot of time at home.

Seeing Song Chi looking refreshed and energized, his parents finally felt completely at ease and couldn’t help but feel a little proud of their son.

Entering the limit-breaking state was not an easy feat. Although it was a fluke that he stumbled into it this time, with this experience, as long as his luck wasn’t too bad, the chances of mastering it completely were quite high.

After chatting for a while, Song Chao gave Chen Lixia a look, then Chen Lixia walked to the sofa in the living room, crouched down, and felt around for a bit.

Song Chi, somewhat puzzled, was wondering what was going on when his mother seemingly activated some mechanism. A subtle blue light screen emerged from the living room floor and rapidly spread to every corner of the house until, eventually, it formed a complete sealed space.

Song Chi’s eyes widened in surprise. As someone who had lived two lives as an old soul and had been mature for his age from a young age, he was completely unaware of such a secret device in his own home.

Song Chao then gestured for him to follow, and the father and son entered the study room one after the other.

The moment he entered the study room, Song Chi was astonished once more. Compared to his old impression of his father’s study, everything in the room was now completely different.

The desk, bookshelves, wooden chair, and even the windows had all disappeared; the current study room resembled the Chaos Space like the Ancestral Torch, but in the center of this space, there wasn’t a Torch Seed burning. Instead, there lay an album that was over ten meters both in length and width.

As he looked up, against the backdrop of a vast starry sky, the phantom of a Dragon Whale was howling at the heavens. A Mech Giant stood thousands of meters tall, looming over all beings below, and this grand spectacle was imprinted on the album, vivid and lifelike.

And it was just this cursory glance at the towering Mech Giant depicted on the album that seemed to exert an infinite magical pull, gripping Song Chi’s entire gaze, causing his body to instantly stiffen in place, unable to move even slightly.

As the light in his eyes swiftly dimmed, and once the brightness completely vanished, Song Chi found himself under an eternally dark starry sky. Above him was indeed the projection of the towering Mech Giant, with the phantom of a Dragon Whale intermittently visible around it—majestic and solemn.

Time seemed to lose meaning, and after a while, Song Chi noticed that the projection of the Mech Giant above him became more substantial and more towering, with the intermittently visible Dragon Whale phantom also becoming clearly discernible.

At a loss, he suddenly heard his father’s voice.

“Do not panic, do not resist, this is the ‘Dragon Spine Tyrant Whale – Mythical Mecha Contemplation Diagram,’ a secret heritage of our Dinghai Song family.

As a secret of the Song family passed down through generations, you must imprint this Dragon Spine Tyrant Whale Mech Conceptualization Chart deep in your mind and continually contemplate it. With the enhancement of the Seed of Torch, it can steadily strengthen your Spiritual Force.”

“Do not underestimate the power of the Spiritual Force. It may not seem significant at the beginning, but if you enhance the Torch Warship to a certain level in the future and activate its Mythical Mecha Form, the strength of your Spiritual Force will directly determine both the maintenance time and the combat power of the Mythical Mecha Form. All members of the Dinghai Song Family must never neglect the cultivation of the Contemplation Diagram.”

Hearing his father’s explanation, Song Chi had an epiphany, realizing that the projection of the Mech Giant was a kind of high-level inheritance. No longer resistant, he instead focused his mind, raised his eyes, and actively began to contemplate the various intricacies of the Mech Giant projection.

Even Song Chi himself hadn’t expected that his subconscious focus would once again put him into a limit-breaking state. With the Threefold Mind Utilization, his engraving and imprinting on the Mech Giant’s projection became even more vivid.

Time passed unknowing, and when the Mech Giant above him finally faded, Song Chi also left that eternal dark space, returning to reality.

It was still the study that looked like Chaos Space, and in the center of the room, the Contemplation Album was still laid out. However, this time, Song Chi felt no special sensation when he looked at it—just that the album before him seemed like an ordinary one, albeit more lifelike.

If he wasn’t mistaken, after his own imprinting, the images in the album seemed much fainter. He guessed that one more imprinting would make them completely blurry, rendering the album unusable.

“Each person can only visualize once in their lifetime. This album is not the original, and your sister can visualize from it once more. As for the effect of the visualization and imprinting, it varies from person to person. The better the imprinting, the stronger the enhancement to the spiritual force. Conversely, the weaker the imprinting, the lesser the enhancement,”

“In the history of the Dinghai Song Family, the one with the highest imprinting effect captured eighty percent of the essence of the Contemplation Diagram. I, your father, only captured forty-five percent due to my average comprehension,”

Song Chi heard his father’s voice once again in his ears. After finishing, his father looked intently at his son, clearly inquiring about Song Chi’s imprinting effect.

Upon hearing this, Song Chi closed his eyes slightly, his mind sinking into the depths of his heart. When he opened his eyes again, he had an answer.

“Seventy percent!”

He was quite satisfied with this imprinting result. According to his father, it was a very good outcome.

At the same time, Song Chi understood that it wasn’t his comprehension or innate gift that was exceptional, but rather that he had happened to enter a limit-breaking state during the imprinting. It was under the auspices of that state that he was able to successfully capture seventy percent of the essence. Otherwise, he feared he wouldn’t be too different from his father, perhaps around forty to fifty percent.

True to his thoughts, Song Chao’s face broke into an uncontrollable smile upon hearing the answer, “seventy percent.”

As the two left the study, Song Chi began to question his father about the affairs of the “Dinghai Song Family.”

“Dad, what is this Dinghai Song Family you mentioned? Could it be that our family has some glorious past that can’t be spoken of?”

Song Chao was about to proudly boast to his son, hoping to reclaim some vanity in front of his precocious child, but then he caught sight of the rapidly dissipating blue light screen and Chen Lixia’s stern gaze. He ended up keeping his mouth shut.

“Why ask so many questions? You’ll be told when it’s time for you to know. Go do what you need to do. Remember to pick up your sister from school on time tomorrow, she has the day off,” he said.

Song Chi twitched the corners of his mouth, shrugged, and without further questioning, agreed nonchalantly before heading out the door.

There was still a batch of resources on the Cang Qiong that needed to be sold, and he needed to make another trip to the black market.

An hour later, Song Chi returned home. All that was left on him was 400 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, plus 40 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin, and then there was a batch of Life Core, Mercury Crystal, Electrum, and other Warship Enhancement resources for emergencies.
