"However, before going to the residence, I suggest you make a trip to the rit Hall first. You'll need rit Points to call upon those mountain-moving Soldier Figurines and for all sorts of required construction materials."
...
The family clan, rit Hall.
As a group of people walked into the hall located at the foot of the mountain, occupying the highest position among the five main halls of the Song family, Song Chi discovered that there were already people waiting for them in the rit Hall, but it was no longer the representatives of the various family veins; it was a Deputy Hall Master of the rit Hall.
In the Song family's five main halls, each hall is managed by one Hall Master and two Deputy Hall Masters. The one before them, nad Song Rui'an, ca from The First Direct Lineage.
As everyone entered the rit Hall, they soon each received a special communication bracelet.
"This is a Quantum Communicator developed by our clan's Technology Departnt. It is capable of providing real-ti communication throughout the Dragon Spine Continent, and each person's rit Points are recorded on this Quantum Communication Bracelet," said Song Rui'an calmly from above the hall.
Upon hearing this, curious mbers of the clan like Song You began to activate their Quantum Communication Bracelets. After completing the binding, they quickly saw their personal detailed information projected on the virtual interface of the bracelet's hopage.
Na: Song You
Age: 30
Seed of Torch: Blue
Affiliation: Tenth Direct Vein
Torch Warship: First Rank Spectral Airship [Aoyou]
rit Points: None
Golden rit Points: None
...
Seeing this, Song Chi also checked his own communication bracelet. Finding it identical to the others, he focused on the [Golden rit Points] section of the virtual interface for a few seconds, curious about what it actually was and how it differed from ordinary rit Points.
But before he had ti to ponder further, the Deputy Hall Master of the rit Hall, Song Rui'an above the hall, spoke again.
"Song Mingsong, Song Shan, recognized by the Pri Ancestor as the main contributors to our family's new control over the 'Moruo Secret Realm,' you are now awarded 100,000 rit Points and 10 Golden rit Points," he announced.
Following the grandfather and uncle, it was not Song Hai or Bai Xiuqin, the Second Rank Torch Ship Captains, who were next, but Song Chi.
"Song Chi, as a secondary contributor, you are now awarded 50,000 rit Points and 5 Golden rit Points."
"Bai Xiuqin, Song Hai, Song Chao... Chen Lixia, you are... now awarded 30,000 rit Points and 3 Golden rit Points."
"Song Qi, Song Lin... the four of you are each awarded 30,000 rit Points."
As his words finished, the Quantum Communication Bracelets of all those present chid with notifications, reflecting changes in their rit Points.
Without giving them a mont to start a discussion, Song Rui'an's gaze from above settled on Song Mingsong standing at the forefront.
Realizing this, Song Mingsong quickly reacted. A flash of light in his hand revealed the miniaturized Moruo Space-Escape ch, and he once again summoned the Furious Lion from the outside world, bringing out the Fourth Rank mber of the Moruo Royal Family who had been sealed and remaining in a dormant state.
With the appearance of these two, personnel from the rit Hall swiftly took them away with care.
Seeing this, Song Mingsong had no other thoughts in his mind.
The Moruo Secret Realm itself was only a compensation for past mistakes, and the substantial rit Points amassed by the family mbers were actually due to the Moruo Space-Escape ch and the Fourth Rank Moruo Royal Family mber.
A Fourth Rank unit with formidable combat power is certainly worth more than just these rit Points, but the original grantor was the projection of the Pri Ancestor. They, as a family, were rely benefiting from the actions and planning. To gain such a significant amount of rit, he was already very satisfied.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, you may leave for now. Get the branch residence in order quickly, as there is a mission that needs to be entrusted to you!" he said.
```
Atop the grand hall, Deputy Hall Master Song Rui'an gently waved his hand, while also urging Song Ming Song with a few words.
Song Mingsong nodded and turned to leave, but he asked one final question before departing.
"Deputy Hall Master, may I inquire if it is now possible to enter the [Immortal Puppet Secret Realm]?"
Song Rui'an waved his hand again.
"The [Immortal Puppet Secret Realm] is currently undergoing ti acceleration. It'll take about half a month or so. After the acceleration is over, you can take these youngsters there!"
Upon hearing this, Song Mingsong's eyes lit up.
"Ti acceleration in the secret realm? May I ask what kind of tispan is being accelerated?"
To this question, Song Rui'an didn't hold back and gave a direct answer.
"Ten thousand years!"
Hearing these two words, Song Mingsong's face instantly bead with joy. First, he bowed gratefully towards the figure above, then led the people behind him out of the grand hall.
Above the Dragon Ridge Continent Sky, the Furious Lion sped at full throttle, followed by twenty warships called in from the construction departnt.
These warships were all loaded with [Soldier Figurine Tree Component] ant for construction. Once they reached Green Moon Lake, it wouldn't take long to preliminarily build their lineage's dwelling.
Inside the Furious Lion's engine room, Song Chi played with the new quantum communication bracelet on his hand and spoke to Song Mingsong in the main control room:
"Grandfather, apart from the direct lineage, does our family also have side lineages? Over more than two thousand years, how could there possibly be only 10 direct lineages?"
"And about that continental survey map we saw earlier, there are many Third Rank Origin Eruption Eyes that remain unclaid and unpressed; they are simply allowing these eruption eyes to dissipate Floating Land Origin. Could it be that the family lacks manpower?"
Listening to these two questions, Song Mingsong explained with a smile:
"The family only has direct lineages and legitimate lineages; all others are classified as mbers of side branches, with no side lineages as such. The reason there are only ten direct lineages until now is simple: our family has a clear rule that only Torch Ship Captains of Third Rank and above have the qualifications to open a lineage."
Hearing this, Song Chi's brow was still not fully smoothed out. With nearly ten million Song family blood relatives accumulated over more than two thousand years, even those who have been promoted to the Third Rank due to fortuitous encounters should number not less than several hundred. If one truly wished to open a lineage, there should be more than just ten direct lineages, shouldn't there?
However, Song Mingsong obviously had more to say, and he continued:
"But having the qualifications to open a lineage doesn't necessarily an one must do so. Nearly ninety-nine percent of these family mbers promoted to Third Rank choose to join one of the three major lineages—the first, second, or third.
Those who choose to open new lineages, besides obtaining a source eruption eye as a territory, would need to subsidize it with their own money for a considerable initial period.
"By comparison, joining those powerful lineages is much stronger: not only do you get a stable inco, if you are outstanding, you can even receive resource support from your own lineage. Additionally, considering the exclusive resources each lineage holds, joining an established one is far more secure and easier than starting your own."
Upon hearing this explanation, Song Chi and the others finally nodded in realization. This made things more or less understandable.
At this mont, his father, Song Chao, added more information.
"Additionally, over the past millennia, there have been direct lineages that have disbanded due to various accidents, lacking a Third Rank Torch Ship Captain to preside over them."
Up ahead, the grandfather's voice rang out again.
"As for those high-level Origin Eruption Eyes, the reason we allow them to dissipate the Floating Land Origin on their own is that a high-level piece of Floating Land is not rely valuable for its ability to stably produce high-level Floating Land Origin. What is also crucial is the unique environnt atop the Floating Land that can nurture high-level Starry Sea Oddities."
"And to preserve this kind of environnt, we can't entirely cut off the supply of high-level Floating Land Origin!"
PS: Regarding the issue of the height of the Dragon Spine Sacred Mountain... well, in the setting of this book, a Level 5 Life form is only tens of thousands of ters in size, so I can't possibly co up with a mountain trillions of kiloters high, right?
As for a diater of ten light-years, I'm clearer on this than you, so there's no need to dwell on the logical issue between this diater and height. It's just a novel, after all; we're not writing a scientific to here.
Also, regarding the generational naming of the Song family, I did write about this when I started the book, but after trying to sort it out, I realized that organizing a lineage spanning nearly three thousand years was incredibly difficult—headache-inducing difficult. So, in the end, I didn't go through with it. Just bear with it!
(I feel like I didn't write this chapter well)
