Chapter 105: Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon - Mixing Void Ultimate Yang Sword Intent Light
Song Chi's breathing quickened as he gazed at the attribute panel that appeared on the surface of the short sword. His heart pounded like a drum, thudding relentlessly.
This peculiar artifact could be converted into a ship component that was currently a weak point on the Azure Sky. It was something he had been desperately searching for but had yet to find.
Peculiar Artifact: Pure Yang Sword Orb
Quality: Orange
Convertible: {Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon}
Notes: Forged by the elders of the Pure Yang Sword Sect on the Primal Continent using fifth-tier materials and secret techniques, this artifact was refined over several decades and then nurtured within their bodies with pure magical energy for hundreds of years, resulting in an orange-quality star sea artifact.
Indeed, the component it could convert into was an orange-quality main cannon. For Song Chi, who was eager to explore the Blor civilization ruins again, acquiring this orange main cannon and pairing it with the group-attack secondary cannon, "Electromagnetic Thunderlight Cannon," would render the unknown third layer of the ruins harmless to the Azure Sky.
Of course, the precondition was that he had to acquire this orange main cannon and then upgrade it.
Putting aside his thoughts, Song Chi carefully examined the sword's attributes. He then used the power of the law to discreetly wrap a thread of dark energy around the sword's body. Soon, he received another set of attributes.
Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon LV0
Quality: Orange
Special Trait: Mixing Void Ultimate Yang Sword Intent Light
Special Trait 2: Main Cannon Power Increased by 40%
Consumption: 500 per use (Dark Energy Points)
Attack: 27
Recharge: 10s; Buffer: 20s
Upgrade Requirements: 10 strands of Floating Land Essence (Zero Tier), 1000 Energy Points, 1 ton of Flame Yang Ore
Without a doubt, this orange-quality "Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon" was a true masterpiece of a main cannon. Its attributes were astonishingly powerful, and even more terrifying was the "Mixing Void Ultimate Yang Sword Intent Light" trait.
Mixing Void Ultimate Yang Sword Intent Light: After a five-minute recharge, it fires a massive sword intent slash with 200% of the main cannon's power, destroying everything in its path.
Note: The Ultimate Yang Sword Intent Light can deal 80% damage to intangible energy beings and 120% damage to beings with cold and dark energy attributes.
Suppressing his excitement, Song Chi silently vowed to do whatever it took to acquire this peculiar artifact. He then refocused his attention on Zhou Ping, whose face was flushed with excitement.
Previously, Zhou Ping was just an ordinary outer sect disciple of the Luofu Sword Sect. He had never seen so many top-tier treasures before, and he was still immersed in the overwhelming joy.
Song Chi used the power of the law to bring Zhou Ping back to reality. Once he came to his senses, Zhou Ping remembered his promise and began selecting what he believed to be the "five most valuable items" from the large pile in the shop.
He had a deep understanding of the means of the great being behind this market. He dared not try to cheat or mix in inferior items.
After a thorough search, he finally selected five items.
In the free market area, Song Chi frowned. The five most valuable items Zhou Ping had chosen were vastly different from what he had imagined. If not for the peculiar artifact short sword, he might have thought Zhou Ping was trying to fool him with random items.
The four items Zhou Ping had selected, besides the peculiar artifact short sword, were a jade bone shield, a grid-patterned compass, and two exquisite green long swords. Among these, only the grid-patterned compass could be converted into a blue-quality "Black Water Mystic Turtle Hull Armor" component. The other three could not be converted into ship components.
Of course, the constantly flowing fluorescence on the three items indicated that they were valuable in the hands of the Heavenly River elders, but they were of no use to Song Chi.
The projection screen in the center of the shop flickered with red light. Four of the five items Zhou Ping held automatically fell back into the pile, leaving only the peculiar artifact short sword. As for the blue-quality artifact that could be converted into Black Water Mystic Turtle Hull Armor, Song Chi, who already had the [Stellar Glory V Alloy Armor], did not keep it.
Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!
From the four corners of the item pile, four other items quickly flew out: two glowing white orbs, a black cloth bag, and a palm-sized white jade token.
These four items were the ones Song Chi, using his authority as the market lord, selected from the countless items as the most valuable to him.
The two glowing white orbs were Floating Land Essences.
The bundle contained 100 strands of third-tier Floating Land Essence. Another bundle held fourth-tier Floating Land Essence, but in much smaller quantities—only 20 strands. Both of these were as valuable as a single purple-grade artifact.
The black cloth bag contained titanium crystals, which Song Chi had been desperately seeking but could never find. There were only 50 crystals in the bag.
The last item was a palm-sized jade token, also a purple-grade artifact, which could be converted into a ship component.
Psi Energy Plaque (Level 0)
- Quality: Purple
- Properties: Increases shield value by 25%
- Consumption: 100 per use (Psi Energy Points)
- Shields Generated: 3/3
- Effect: Generates a single-unit psi energy shield with a value of 175/175 for a designated small unit.
- Cooldown: 72 hours; no recharging required
- Duration: 30 minutes
- Upgrade Requirements: 6 strands of zero-tier Floating Land Essence, 600 Psi Energy Points
Among these items, apart from the Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon, the Psi Energy Plaque was what Song Chi desired the most. This component could activate a single-unit shield at any time, providing a crucial means of self-preservation.
Although the Caelum had a Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator, he couldn't always be on the Flameheart Warship. There were times when he needed to recall the ship, and in such situations, a shield that could be activated at any moment was an invaluable lifesaver.
As for the Floating Land Essence and titanium crystals, he could eventually earn them through the Market of All Realms. However, the Psi Energy Plaque was different. Such components were extremely rare, and missing this opportunity might mean waiting a long time to find another.
Unfortunately, even though he had selected these five items, the final decision was not his to make. Zhou Ping would choose which one of the five would be his reward.
Previously, Zhou Ping had said he would select one of the five most valuable items from his storage bag, but he hadn't specified which one.
Song Chi merely sighed in habit, not truly concerned. In the end, he was confident that over 90% of these valuable items would end up in his possession. Moreover, Zhou Ping was likely to become his representative and link to the Primordial Continent, a constant source of wealth. Thus, he didn't want to pressure him too much on their first transaction. If not, he would have chosen the item himself.
Zhou Ping made his decision surprisingly quickly. Without much deliberation, he pushed the bundle of third-tier Floating Land Essence forward, clearly intending it as the reward.
Song Chi was unsurprised. He raised his hand and used the Market rules to draw in the 100 strands of third-tier Floating Land Essence, which then vanished into the artifact exchange shop.
In the free market area, Song Chi quietly stored the 100 strands of third-tier Floating Land Essence in the Flameheart Ancestral Aperture. Apart from his bound Flameheart Warship, all other artifacts and Floating Land Essence that could be converted into Flameheart components could be stored in the Flameheart Ancestral Aperture.
After securing the Floating Land Essence, his attention remained focused on the artifact exchange shop.
Acquiring only 100 strands of third-tier Floating Land Essence was far from enough. Zhou Ping had many more valuable items.
Narrowing his eyes, Song Chi noticed something interesting. After quickly stowing away a large pile of items, Zhou Ping didn't rush to leave the artifact exchange shop. Instead, his gaze lingered on a few star sea artifacts on the shelves.
After a moment, Song Chi realized that Zhou Ping's attention was primarily on two specific artifacts.
Artifact: Nine Heavens Cloud Essence
- Quality: Purple
- Evolvable: No
- Note: Born at the peak of the Nine Heavens on the Cloud-Confining Continent. The native creatures of the Cloud-Confining Continent might know how to use it.
Artifact: Crystal
- Quality: Blue
- Evolvable: No
- Note: Formed within the core of a small asteroid that has existed for nearly ten thousand years. Few creatures can use it.
Both of these artifacts were purchased from the Morning Star Multi-Function Shop. Song Chi had only bought them to try them out and was prepared for a long period of unsold inventory. He hadn't expected Zhou Ping to show interest in them.
Song Chi was quite excited about this discovery. This would allow him to insert a trade request for the "Pure Yang Sword Pill."
"Excuse me, how would you like to trade for the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence] and the [Crystal]?"
As he spoke, Song Chi keenly noticed the flicker of excitement in Zhou Ping's eyes. Although Zhou Ping tried to hide it, Song Chi, as the master of this secret market realm, held the fundamental laws of the realm. He was practically omniscient and omnipotent within this market, so he couldn't miss such a subtle sign.
Song Chi became even more certain that the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence] and the [Crystal] must be extremely valuable, perhaps even rare, in the Primal Continent.
And indeed, he was right, though he had one thing wrong. The truly valuable item wasn't the [Crystal], which, while rare, was only a third-tier forging material. Its value paled in comparison to the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence].
The [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence] was known as [Gale Cloud Essence] on the Primal Continent. It could only be collected by powerful beings at the late-stage Nascent Soul realm or higher, venturing into the Gale Sky. Its value was incredibly high.
Song Chi remained composed and gave a vague response.
"Barter!"
Zhou Ping hesitated for a moment, then he handed over the black cloth bag containing the titanium crystals from the four items he had left.
In the free market area, Song Chi subconsciously shook his head. Titanium crystals were rare, but there were only 50 of them. If it were the [Crystal], he would have accepted it, but the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence] was too valuable, having cost him tens of thousands of strands of zero-grade Floating Land Essence.
"Can trade for the [Crystal]!"
Seeing the reply on the projection screen, Zhou Ping didn't hesitate and immediately agreed to the trade.
He had just opened the black cloth bag and recognized the titanium crystals. This mineral had been discovered a century ago in the Black Heaven Domain, initially attracting the attention of several major sects. However, since no specific uses were found, it was eventually classified as a useless mineral.
After receiving the [Crystal], Zhou Ping's gaze remained fixed on the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence]. If he could exchange this item, he believed that all the resources needed for his future Foundation Establishment would be secured.
In the free market area, Song Chi was also organizing his thoughts. After a moment, he focused his mind.
In the rare items exchange shop, the central projection screen changed again.
"Would you consider selling the short sword in your hand?"
Zhou Ping's expression tightened as he read the message.
He subconsciously tightened his grip on the short sword, then a moment later, a deep sense of conflict emerged in his eyes.
This sword pill was a direct inheritance of the Pure Yang Sword Sect, slightly more powerful than the Luofu Flying Sword of the Luofu Sword Sect. If he could keep it for his future use, his combat strength would definitely surpass that of other cultivators at the same level.
However, the conflict lay in the fact that the sword pill's rank was too high. He wouldn't be able to use it freely for a long time.
Even achieving the Foundation Establishment realm wouldn't be enough; it would likely deplete his mana in a few moves. Probably only a peak Golden Core cultivator could control this sword pill to some extent.
Thinking of his current Eighth Stage Qi Cultivation, which was still far from the peak Golden Core realm, Zhou Ping couldn't help but feel discouraged.
Seeing this, Song Chi didn't rush him, waiting quietly.
Faced with an orange-rarity legendary item, he had ample patience and didn't want to interrupt Zhou Ping's internal deliberation.
After all, he had already calculated several times, and the conclusion was always that selling the short sword would be the most beneficial for Zhou Ping.
As for forcibly taking it, that thought never crossed his mind. There was a long future ahead, and he wouldn't do anything to tarnish his reputation.
There were no walls without leaks, and maintaining the rules and reputation of the All-Heaven Market was more important than anything.
After much deliberation, Zhou Ping finally made his decision. He looked up at the projection screen and spoke slowly.
In the free market area, Song Chi was a bit nervous, fearing an unacceptable response.
"I can sell this sword pill, but the [Nine Heavens Cloud Essence] alone isn't enough."
Hearing this, Song Chi let out a long breath of relief. As long as he didn't refuse to sell, the price could be negotiated.
At the same time, he tapped his forehead, his mind racing as he thought about what else he had that might interest Zhou Ping.
