Chapter 1086: Chapter 574: The Golden Disk River System and the Journey of the Immortal Qin Dynasty_2
“Family Head, we all know we were wrong. Please give us a chance to redeem ourselves. Besides, with the civilization war looming, the family cannot afford to lose a single ounce of strength.”
“That’s right, Family Head. We were blinded by money before. Don’t sentence us to death so directly!”
…
Facing the constant pleading voices coming from behind, Song Xuancang did not turn around but responded coldly:
“Redeem yourselves? Then what about all the family mbers you personally slaughtered? Who will give them a chance to start over?”
“Those who lack even the most basic moral bottom line still expect to contribute to the family?”
After his icy reply, under the watchful eyes of millions of family mbers below, Song Xuancang’s command swiftly echoed through the air.
“Execute!”
As his words fell, the puppet soldiers surrounding the figures took action, and soon, blood engulfed the entire execution platform.
Once all the criminals were slain, Song Xuancang’s voice once again resonated across the plaza.
“Let today’s scene be etched into the hearts of every family mber. The reason our family rose to beco an Immortal Clan within just three thousand years is due to countless ancestors sacrificing their lives to forge this path.”
“The bright future you enjoy today stands on the foundation of three thousand years of blood and tears—a starting point so enviable to ordinary people—that is ant for you to reach further as captains, to spread the na of the Dragon Spine Song Family across broader starfields, and not for you to indulge in extravagance and complacency!”
This string of soul-stirring words reverberated in the ears of all family mbers, lingering unyieldingly.
Many younger mbers of the family shed their previously superior attitudes. With their fists clenched tightly, today’s events felt like a heavy slap across their faces, thoroughly awakening them.
Deep within the body of Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain, the core mbers of the Song Family who had witnessed the scene firsthand all wore expressions of satisfaction.
They believed that, after this, the family’s atmosphere would swiftly return to a healthy trajectory and, for a long ti to co, the family would resu its positive developnt.
“The Inspection Hall must receive more funding. Only then can the family’s ethos and cohesion continue to be maintained. The family may have only existed for three thousand years, but our path as an Immortal Clan is far from concluded. Our sights are set on a legacy lasting ten thousand years and becoming immortal giants. We must not falter!”
In the grand hall, the first to speak was Song Shiyuan.
His tone was resolute. Evidently, the family’s corruption issue had struck a deep chord within him, and he vowed never to see the sa problem arise again at so future ti.
Regarding this, the others in the hall naturally did not object and all expressed their agreent.
…
Once the command had been issued from the Ancestral Hall, the gathered individuals dispersed, leaving behind only Song Wujiang, Song Yan, and Song Chi.
Song Chi and Song Yan’s gazes converged on Song Wujiang. Evidently, the ancestor had just sent a voice transmission requesting them to stay behind; there seed to be matters to discuss.
“Tomorrow, we’ll be heading out. Prepare yourselves to depart together.”
Song Yan was the first to ask:
“Ancestor, where are we going?”
“The Golden Disk River System, Tianqi Kingdom!”
Upon hearing these four words, Song Chi and Song Yan both raised their eyebrows. They knew sothing about the Tianqi Kingdom; it was the only kingdom within the Golden Disk River System, which, along with the Heavenly Disk River System, Silver Disk River System, and others, ford a small river system cluster.
Strictly speaking, this small cluster was developed in the last several tens of thousands of years and was one of the recently controlled river systems under the Immortal Qin Dynasty.
The Golden Disk River System, where Tianqi Kingdom was located, was closest to the eastern central starfield of the Torch Humanity Galaxy Cluster ruled by the Immortal Qin Dynasty.
“Why are we heading to Tianqi Kingdom?”
Song Yan questioned again, and Song Wujiang naturally did not hide the answer.
“According to information received by the family, the Golden Disk Floating Land is about to host a massive auction featuring many high-rank components and rare resources. Currently, the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] lacks a high-quality universal cooldown reduction component, so we’re heading there to try our luck.”
“High-quality universal cooldown reduction components? Such components are extrely rare.”
Song Chi felt that the ancestor had more to say. Otherwise, rushing over like this only to find nothing would waste a considerable amount of ti. In the current situation, ti was the most precious thing.
Sure enough, as Song Chi was mulling this over, the ancestor’s voice sounded once more.
“I’ve received confird information: the auction on the Golden Disk Floating Land is being hosted by a declining Immortal Clan. Among the auction items is a universal cooldown reduction component of golden quality.”
Saying this, his tone shifted.
“Additionally, aside from attending the auction, we also need to head to the Torch Ancestral Court of the Immortal Qin Dynasty to register the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] for its upgrade to a Star-Annihilating Starship.”
Registering at the [Torch Ancestral Court]?
This left Song Chi and Song Yan genuinely puzzled.
Previously, they hadn’t seen any related information in the family archives.
Nor had they ever heard about it externally.
Not leaving them in confusion for long, Song Wujiang soon explained:
“Registering and reporting to the [Torch Ancestral Court] is not a mandatory requirent, at least not within the first ten thousand years of officially becoming a Star-Annihilating Starship Captain.”
“Then why are we rushing…?”
Song Wujiang interrupted Song Yan’s query, continuing:
“Don’t be impatient. Listen to . Registering at the [Torch Ancestral Court] is akin to formally claiming an official identity with the Four Great Empires on behalf of a Star-Annihilating Starship Captain. Once recognized, every captain is required to perform a thousand-year special garrison duty within every five thousand years.”
“Of course, duty cos with rewards. After receiving official recognition, each captain can claim specific rewards from their supervising empire: ten shares of Dominant True Spirit every millennium, with up to five millennia’s worth available in a single claim.”
Upon hearing this, Song Chi and Song Yan began to grasp so of the reasoning.
At this point, Song Chi spoke up:
“Ancestor, the specific garrison duty—is it for the [Civilization Great Wall]?”
Song Wujiang nodded lightly before replying:
“Including the [Civilization Great Wall], but not limited to it. However, details cannot be disclosed until the [Torch Ancestral Court] grants official recognition.”
Hearing this, Song Yan posed yet another question.
“Ancestor, how do you know all this?”
There wasn’t a trace of such information in the family archive. Could it be that their access level within the family was restricted?
“This information erged automatically when the Guidance Technique broke through to the Seventh Rank. It seems to be a unique setting devised by the Four Great Empires within the [Original Source Seed of Torch].”
Upon hearing this, the duo was finally enlightened.
Afterward, the three didn’t speak much further, each focusing on preparations.
Song Chi didn’t know what Song Yan was doing, but he himself felt sowhat excited.
As a Torch Ship Captain and a citizen of the Torch Human Civilization, the Four Great Empires of Torch were acclaid. Learning that he would soon personally visit one of the Four Great Empires, the [Immortal Qin Dynasty], filled him with anticipation.
The next day, Song Chi, Song Wujiang, and Song Yan reunified in the Dragon Whale Hall.
“Little Chi, head straight to Silver Disk Floating Land to save ti!”
“Understood!”
Through Zhu Tian Ruins Market, they transferred to Silver Disk Floating Land, swiftly proceeding to the large long-distance teleportation base outside the Floating Land.
They needed this base to teleport to a neighboring river system and, from there, directly to the Golden Disk River System.
Within the small cluster of river systems encompassing the Heavenly Disk River System, the Heavenly Disk River System lay in the far northeast, while the Golden Disk River System was in the southwest—making them the farthest apart. Silver Disk Floating Land served as the interdiary.
After purchasing teleportation tickets, the trio waited three days at this Stargate Base Station before initiating the teleportation.
Ten days later, through two consecutive long-distance Stargate teleportations, they successfully arrived at the Golden Disk River System.
