Chapter 2487 - Evolution


    The reason Tianming dared to go for another core was thanks to the Order Relic, which mitigated most of the destructive effects that entered his body. Comparatively, the ckdragon Core was much colder than the zedragon Core. It was a sh of ice and fire! Part of the nova source that gathered around the ckdragon Pce was from Violetglory, which gave him a chilly sensation.


    The ckdragon that looked forebodingly at him seemed to radiate bad news. It also seemed bigger than the zedragon and waspletely ck.


    "This one looks even bigger, but I have to endure it." He grit his teeth and charged toward the core, causing it to growl and do the same. The two of them shed within the nova source and Tianming was instantly ''burned'' once more, but his body turned charred instead of glowing hot.


    "Hell!" The pain made his scalp tingle. Once more, the divine celestial patterns from the ckdragon permeated his astrons, as if they were being branded on his flesh. An audible sizzling could be heard. The process of assimting the cores felt like being branded across all his astrons. "Agh, pain and pleasure...."


    The cold frost that surrounded him felt prickly and painful. Thick ck mist began wafting from his body, which felt so cold it was about to shatter.


    "A little more!" He clenched his teeth, taking all the pain. Tianming sensed that his heptastar cosmic physique was at its breaking point. Fortunately, the Order-Relic-shaped astrons seemed to have their own force of attraction that held each other together, maintaining his bodily integrity.


    "That was close!" He breathed a long sigh of relief, having finally seeded in assimting a second meyellow Core. The brand of the ckdragon marked his body like the other three dragons''. They surrounded the stigma of the prime wonder within his astrons, making it look rather imposing.


    "I almost copsed. This truly is my limit! I won''t dare to try more." It was quite a scare for him, but thankfully, it was over and he had made great progress.


    "I’ve assimted four of the nine cores, almost half now!" It felt like quite a milestone for him. Were he still on the sun, he would probably feel even more emotional. By now, the ckdragon core was settling into his body.


    "I should be able to feel my control over the ship increase if I''m near the sun." So far, there had been no changes.


    "Did anything happen to the ship?" As he wondered that, the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb seemed to change! "It''s finally awake?"


    Filled with expectation, he looked around him. First, he was ejected from the ship. As he left, he saw the bricks and formations within the ship rapidly transforming. Countless hidden dragon-shaped divine celestial patterns poured out from all corners, filling the entire space. It felt like countless dragons were roaring inside the ship.


    He stabilized himself when he got thrown outside and kept watch. As Skyhold Pce was quite quiet to begin with, the noise drew Feiling and the rest over. Ear-shaking sounds rang out from within the ancient divine astralship. The divine patterns even appeared on the surface, greatly changing how it looked from the outside.


    The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb was covered by a brand new divine astralship formation. The shape of the nine heads hadn’t changed, but the material they were made of seemed different. The heads seemedpletely glossy and metallic, as if they had been given a fresh polish! The ws, talons, and tails of the different dragons also brightly glowed.


    The biggest change was the new divine astralship formation, which was the keyponent of the ship. The stronger it was, the better materials it would be made of, which would give it even more durability. It would be able to store even more nova source energy as a result. Deific-ss ships could store around a hundred times the energy that the Kilostar Capital could, which was equivalent to a hundred times the energy of the entire Divine Moon Realm. While the mass of the ship hadn’t increased by much, Tianming knew that what really mattered, was its materials and formation, which had undergone a total overhaul. He struck it with the Grand-Orient Sword and found that the new materials were a thousand times tougher than before. The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb had transformed once before this, and he had a feeling this wouldn’''t be thest.


    "It''s a total transformation! I wonder what ss of ship it is now.... Its formation is a thousand times moreplex than before. It''s definitely above the deific ss." Finding out what ss would be simple. He only had to charge up its nova source reserves to the maximum! Based on that, he would be able to calcte the magnitude of attack it could unleash, and thereby discover its ss.


    "It just so happens that Skyhold Pce is a great ce to recharge divine astralships." Tianming activated the ship and set it to start absorbing nova source. Before this, it was only a skypiercer-ss ship and couldn''t evenunch attacks at all.


    The nova source in deus was much better than the sun''s. Tianming summoned Ji Ji and had it enter the Imperialdragon Pce. With it there, the nova source that was absorbed would be even more stable and up to thirty percent more efficient. The entire charging processsted more than two hours.


    "Its size didn''t grow by much, but its energy capacity is a hundred times what it was before! Not to mention, the formation is even stronger and concentrated now!" A hundred times the energy of a skypiercer-ss ship would make it... "Sanctuary ss?"


    That would only be inferior to the ether ss by a single step! With Ji Ji helping to regte the nova source, it would be stronger than average sanctuary-ss ships. "Well, as far as its energy capacity is concerned, it''s a hundred times better, but I still have to test if its power grew by that amount as well."


    With how dense the dean nova source within the dragon pces was concentrated, Tianming wouldn''t be able to casually enter them with his body like before.


    "Even its attacks are different." He fused with the astralship core and familiarized himself with the new functions. "Wow, it can use Dragonrage Cannon. That''s a spherical st of nova source like the one before, but enhanced. It even has a meroar Sword effect that can create a loud soundwave. No doubt, it''s really harmful to the ears."
