Psionic Shuttle Detailed Attributes

His gaze remained on the basic components section. At present, the Psionic Shuttle was a completely blank ship, and there was nothing worth seeing in the other sections.

For example, in the special components section, a newly fused Kindling Starship initially had two special component slots. Only after the Psionic Shuttle was upgraded would the number of slots increase.

Of course, the number of additional slots also varied according to the quality of the Kindling Seed. The higher the quality of the Kindling Seed, the more slots it would gain.

This was another key reason why the Kindling Human Civilization placed such importance on the quality of Kindling Seeds. It not only determined a Kindling Starship's enhancement limit, but also determined the difference in combat power between Kindling Starships of the same rank.

Just imagine it: both were lv10 Kindling Starships, yet a starship with a white Kindling Seed might be able to equip ten types of special components, while a shuttle with a colorless Kindling Seed could have at most six special component slots. With nearly twice the difference, their combat power was simply incomparable.

Focusing his gaze, the detailed attributes of these modules soon appeared one by one.

After checking the data for every component, Song Chi did not linger. These were merely basic figures, all of which had been covered in his previous studies. The only thing that caught his attention was the Psionic Cultivation Platform at the end.

As one of the core components of a Kindling Starship, it was also the fundamental reason why everyone in the Kindling Human Civilization was so determined to own a Kindling Starship of their own.

Why did they risk their lives exploring the vast, boundless alien starfields?

Could it really be just to casually enjoy the exotic scenery? Of course not... What supported the exploratory spirit of Kindling citizens had always been the strange and rare resources within alien starfields.

So the question was, what was the ultimate purpose of plundering and gathering those resources?

Was it merely to enhance their Kindling Starships? Not exactly, or rather, not entirely. Enhancing a Kindling Starship was inevitable, but that was only the surface. At the root of it all, what every Kindling Starship captain pursued was the elevation of their own life level.

To put it bluntly, it was immortality—living longer.

As everyone knew, cultivating a Guidance Art to a high level could trigger a transformation in one's life level. And with every life transformation, a cultivator's lifespan would increase to a certain degree.

However, the higher the level of the Guidance Art, the more terrifying its cultivation difficulty became. Triggering even the first life-level transformation was as difficult as reaching the heavens, let alone undergoing multiple further life elevations.

Yet this problem could be perfectly solved by the Psionic Cultivation Platform bound to every Kindling Starship.

The Psionic Cultivation Platform could greatly accelerate the cultivation of the Psionic Guidance Technique, allowing every Kindling Starship captain to raise their Guidance Art level at twice, three times, or even greater speeds, thereby triggering transformations in their life level again and again.

And the higher a Kindling Starship's enhancement level, the better the effect of its bound Psionic Cultivation Platform.

Therefore, what Kindling captains truly cared about was not the enhancement of the Kindling Starship itself, but the Psionic Cultivation Platform attached to it.

Looking at the Psionic Cultivation Platform aboard the Psionic Shuttle, Song Chi suddenly thought of the All-Attribute Cultivation Room in the Market Ruins. Its cultivation bonus for Void Energy seemed to be 400%, fully twice that of the platform before him.

Previously, his attention had been almost entirely drawn to the "Ultra-Long Range Random Space Gate Deployment Platform," and he had not paid much attention to it. Now that he thought back on it, the excitement he had just suppressed surged up again like a tide.

Because he knew very well what this meant.

It meant that in the future, his Psionic Guidance Technique cultivation speed would far surpass that of Kindling Starship captains of the same rank.

It meant he would have a greater chance of elevating his own life level and gaining a longer lifespan.

It also meant that even if his Kindling Starship failed to raise the quality of its Kindling Seed in the future, it would not affect his personal cultivation in the slightest.

Of course, even so, Song Chi would not abandon his Kindling Starship unless absolutely necessary. After all, the Market Ruins' future enhancements and the introduction of goods all required enormous resources. Relying solely on the Market Ruins' monthly trade was far from enough.

Moreover, the Market Ruins itself lacked powerful firepower. Unlike a Kindling Starship, once enhanced to a certain extent, a single ship could suppress an entire Star Sea Floating Continent.

With that in mind, Song Chi quickly drafted an initial plan for his future development.

He would make the Market Ruins his foundation and the Kindling Starship his support. One would better and more quickly assist his life-level transformation, while the other would provide future firepower. Both would advance side by side without interfering with one another.

After sorting out this basic order of priorities, Song Chi shifted his attention to enhancing the Psionic Shuttle.

Tomorrow would be his first Alien Starfield Exploration. Although it was a benefit exploration, the necessary enhancements still had to be made. Better safe than sorry—Song Chi understood that principle well enough.

A flash of dim light flickered between his brows as the radiant mass belonging to the special component, the "Fire Sunflower Soldier Tree," was taken from his Kindle Ancestral Aperture.

Song Chi then installed it in one of the Psionic Shuttle's only two special component slots, and its attributes quickly appeared.
