Global Era of Star trekking

Although anxious at heart, Song Chi quickly shifted his attention to the Zhu Tian Ruins Market itself, as he was extremely curious about the changes after its advancement.

Previously, due to his focus on the matter of the Demon Mark, he had only taken a casual look, yet he remembered clearly that a new feature had appeared on the attributes panel of the market. This one change alone was enough to make one itch with anticipation.

Opening up the market's attributes panel once again, Song Chi started to carefully examine the changes within.

His gaze skipped over the first three sections and landed on the specification item.

After advancing to the first rank, the area of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market soared to a size of 1000mx1000m, and the number of shops increased to 50. The stall area expanded to 200mx200m, and even the inn, which had never seemed to serve any purpose, had grown from one to two floors—these were undoubtedly all good news.

The expansion of the market's area not only meant that more beings could enter with each market trade in the future but also implied that Song Chi's super private storage space capacity had further increased, allowing him to store even more resources in the future.

For this purpose, Song Chi specially used the Power of Laws to section off a 20mx20m enclosed area within the stall zone.

This enclosed space would become the exclusive storage for the Floating Land Mining Carts and the various resources collected in the future. That way, he wouldn't have to worry about where to store the two Floating Land Mining Carts and the gathered resources every time he opened the market.

This area was sufficient to store a large quantity of items; it could even accommodate the Cang Qiong, which had advanced to a Spectral Airship, when entirely empty.

Near the central street of the market, close to the stall area, was a two-story inn. Previously, Song Chi had explored the function of this building several times, to no avail.

Other than discovering that each guest room slightly sped up spirit recovery, there were no other functions.

Upon entering the inn once more, Song Chi's renewed interest wasn't because of the additional number of guest rooms after the market's advancement, but because he noticed that the 51 rooms were not evenly distributed across the first and second floors.

There were 50 rooms on the first floor, but only a lonely one on the second floor—an observation that puzzled him.

Soon, the 50 rooms on the first floor had been checked one by one, and they were no different from before. So, he climbed up to the second floor.

As soon as Song Chi arrived on the second floor, he made an unexpected discovery.

The second floor of the inn didn't have just one guest room; looking down the corridor, it was clear that there were ten doors of identical dimensions, indicating that the actual number of guest rooms on the second floor was ten.

However, only one room was currently open; the other nine were blocked by some mysterious barrier and had not been unlocked. Even as the Ruins Market Master, he was also barred from entering.

His eyes flickering with various speculations, Song Chi ultimately concluded that to continue unlocking the other nine rooms, he would likely have to wait for future upgrades of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.

As for whether these rooms had different functions from those on the first floor, that was something he had to experience personally to know.

Thinking this, he pushed open the door of the only available guest room on this floor. The moment his feet crossed the threshold, Song Chi suddenly felt a strange realization: This second-floor guest room was completely different from those on the first floor!!!

He could not pinpoint where this feeling came from. After a moment of doubt, his attention quickly shifted away, as his gaze was now drawn to a bronze token floating at the center of the room.

The Ruin Market Mystical Laws that Song Chi controlled did not issue any warning of danger, so he reached straight out for the bronze token.

The moment his palm touched the token, all the information about the bronze token and the room below surfaced in his mind.

[Name: Ruins Market Guest Token]

[Belongs to: Zhu Tian Ruins Market (Song Chi)]

[Number of uses: 1/1]

[Effect: The creature that obtains this Guest Token, regardless of where it is in the Shattered Starry Sea, can consume one usage count to activate the token with the Ruins Market Master's consent, and upon activation, the token will transport the activator to the exclusive "Guest Room" for a 24-hour stay.

The activator will be transported back to their original location with the token either when they choose to return or when the stay ends.]

[Introduction: A product derived from the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, possessing inconceivable abilities.]

[Note: Only the Ruins Market Master can replenish the token's number of uses.]

[Note 2: The Ruins Market Master has the right to revoke the token at any time.]

"Ruins Market Guest Token..."

Murmuring softly, Song Chi's eyes shone, and his heart rate accelerated.

Based on the introduction on the attributes panel, the actual value of the Ruins Market Guest Token must far exceed expectations, allowing other beings multiple entries into the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, not just relying on the elusive luck. Just this feature alone could make creatures who had experienced the convenience and value of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market eager for it.

Similarly, as the Ruins Market Master, he could also use this to obtain greater benefits.

For instance, if he had had this item a month earlier, he could have handed the token to that "Gore" before the second market trade ended, granting him the qualification to re-enter the market later.

With this, he could have Gore collect more Deep Water Clam Pearls for him, ones that were a thousand years older or even older, or perhaps those rare and precious "Mermaid's Tears".

With that thought, Song Chi sighed softly—it was too late for the Ruins Market Guest Token to arrive.

Water-based Floating Lands in the Starry Sea were not common, and it was uncertain when he would encounter such an Alien Race on a Floating Land again, one that could stably produce Deep Water Clam Pearls.

However, it wasn't necessary to just rely on water-based Floating Lands for Aliens.

With the vastness of the Starry Sea, there were plenty of Floating Lands with even rarer resources. As long as there were Alien Species that could provide a continuous supply of a valuable resource, he could consider giving out this Ruins Market Guest Token.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Song Chi stepped out of the inn once more. The allocation of the Ruins Market Guest Tokens would undoubtedly be strict and not something that could be done in a short time.

Of course, he would not distribute them lightly. As it stood, there were only ten "Guest Rooms" on the second floor of the inn, meaning there could be at most ten Ruins Market Guest Tokens, each needing to be given out with caution.

Aside from nurturing the Ruins Market Guest Tokens, the function of those Guest Rooms was also to serve as the sole space node for the holders of the Guest Tokens to enter and leave the Ruins Market—a transfer station, so to speak.
