Chapter 460: The Extraordinary Artifact Origin Improvement Platform
Chapter 460: The Extraordinary Artifact Origin Improvement Platform
In addition to the increase in the number of shops from 1,200 to 2,200, the newly added 1,000 shops were still the Trading Market Stalls.
However, at present, the value of the Trading Market Stalls is not significant. After all, the Divine Realm Player Trading Space is much more convenient than the Trading Market Stalls and the Trading Market Orders.
Ignoring this, Song Chi walked straight to the newly appeared stone platform on the side of the Heavenly Marketplace.
Focusing his gaze, the attributes of the stone platform soon appeared before him.
[Name: Artifact Origin Improvement Platform]
[Rank: Zero]
[Effect 1: By investing a single artifact of any quality into the improvement platform and consuming a fixed amount of Shadow Energy Points, the artifact can be transformed into an Artifact Origin Essence of the corresponding quality. (Not yet enhanced, this function is currently unavailable)]
[Effect 2: Consume an Artifact Origin Essence of any quality, extract a specific trait from an artifact or ship component of the next higher rank, and convert it into a trait clause. (Not yet enhanced, this function is currently unavailable)]
[Effect 3: Consume an Artifact Origin Essence of any quality, merge a specific trait clause with an artifact or ship component of the next higher rank, and replace the designated trait of the component as desired. (Not yet enhanced, this function is currently unavailable)]
[Effect 4: Consume ten portions of the same quality Artifact Origin Essence and merge them into an Artifact Origin Essence of the next higher rank. (Not yet enhanced, this function is currently unavailable)]
[Note: A special synthesis platform crafted by a powerful being from the Immortal Domain Civilization in the Star Sea, capable of improving and optimizing Stellar Artifacts according to one's will.]
[Upgrade Requirements: Heavenly Marketplace level 10 or above, 1,000 strands of Floating Continent Origin (Rank Zero)]
After reading the attributes displayed before him, Song Chi paused, and according to the detailed description, this brand-new Artifact Origin Improvement Platform's configuration was top-notch. However, to accurately assess its value, he needed to enhance its rank and see the upper limit of the artifact quality it could improve.
If it could only enhance White, Blue, and Purple artifacts, its value would be limited. But if it could also work on Red, Silver, and Gold artifacts, its value would be immeasurable.
With over ten thousand strands of Rank Zero Floating Continent Origin and the required Heavenly Marketplace rank, the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform quickly enhanced to Rank One.
Upon reaching Rank One, its attributes changed, and it could now affect White Stellar Artifacts. However, the subsequent enhancements also changed, and to continue to Rank Two, it required not only the Heavenly Marketplace rank and Floating Continent Origin but also a White Artifact Essence.
Fortunately, each enhancement required only one portion, so Song Chi took ten White artifacts from the Artifact Exchange Shop and transformed them into ten White Artifact Essences, which he then used to enhance the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform to Rank Two.
Following this, he consumed ten artifacts of each quality—White, Blue, Purple, and Orange—and enhanced the platform to Rank Five.
At this point, the attributes of the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform underwent a significant change.
It could now transform a Red artifact into a Red Artifact Essence, and using this essence, it could modify the traits of Silver ship components.
Seeing that Rank Five allowed for the improvement of Silver components, Song Chi's eyes lit up.
He already foresaw the terrifying value of this Artifact Origin Improvement Platform.
Aside from other considerations, there was an urgent need to improve a component on the Heaven Ruin Skydome.
After confirming the attributes of the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform, Song Chi immediately thought of the Spirit Gazing Eye component.
It wasn't that the Spirit Gazing Eye, a Red radar, was inadequate; its "Spirit Gazing Eye" trait had helped Song Chi obtain numerous Red and even Silver artifacts over the years, and it was also responsible for locating the Calamity Star Tribe elite seed's lair not long ago.
However, aside from the "Spirit Gazing Eye" trait, the other two traits of this reconnaissance radar were merely average.
Song Chi remembered the Silver III Generation Ultrawave Mana Detection Radar he had obtained from the dwarf Luke, which had an excellent "Mana Detection" trait that was also urgently needed on the Heaven Ruin Skydome.
Although he could occasionally borrow it from the White Snow Qingyou Ship using the "Yin-Yang Cooperation" trait of the Yang United Heart Amulet, the cooldown time was too long, making it highly inconvenient.
If he could extract this "Mana Detection" trait and replace one of the ordinary traits of the Spirit Gazing Eye, the Red reconnaissance radar would undoubtedly become even more extraordinary.
The best part was that it wasn't too expensive; he only needed to pay the price of an Orange artifact that couldn't be transformed into a ship component, which was an absolute bargain.
For example, the Mother-Son Soul Control Ring, although a Red enslavement component like the Servitude Seal, was far less valuable in practice.
+ kuang means "frenzied", "wild", or "mad"
Without further thought, Song Chi returned to the Dragon Spine Continent, borrowed the Three-Eye Soul Binding Ring to safely uninstall the Spirit Gazing Eye, and then took out a Blue reconnaissance radar he had acquired long ago.
Mana Detection Reconnaissance Radar lv0
Quality: Blue
Trait: Mana Detection
...
{Mana Detection: All lifeforms or objects with special energy reactions within the radar's detection range will be specially marked on the display.}
The "Mana Detection" trait of this top-quality Blue reconnaissance radar was essentially the same as the "Mana Detection" trait of the Silver III Generation Ultrawave Mana Detection Radar, just with a different name.
Song Chi had always wanted to replace this trait with the Spirit Gazing Eye, but it required a Seven-Rank Silver Apple. Now, with the help of the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform, he could do it ahead of schedule and without consuming a precious Seven-Rank Silver Apple.
After a moment, Song Chi consumed a White Artifact Essence to transform the "Mana Detection" trait into a clause, and then used an Orange Artifact Essence to replace the "Detection Range Increase 200%" trait of the Spirit Gazing Eye with this new trait.
At this point, the attributes of the Spirit Gazing Eye component completely changed.
Spirit Gazing Eye lv60
Quality: Red
Trait: Mana Detection
Trait 2: Detection Priority +8400
Trait 3: Spirit Gazing Eye
...
After completing this, Song Chi reinstalled the Spirit Gazing Eye onto the warship.
After understanding the new configuration of the Artifact Origin Improvement Platform, Song Chi quickly ran to the Heavenly Marketplace Inn, hoping to see if there would be any changes after his promotion to Tier 5.
However, the result left him greatly disappointed. The four-story inn showed no signs of change; the Market Guest Room, Market Travel Room, and Market Projection Room remained unchanged.
"It seems like these are the only changes, quite a bit less than expected, but it's fine. At least in the future, when trading with the Sorcerer Civilization, we won't have to worry."
Shaking his head, Song Chi turned and left the Marketplace.
Compared to the kingdom's fleet, which was advancing rapidly outside, the promotion of the Multiverse Ruins Market could only be considered a minor interlude. The kingdom's countless warships continued their relentless advance.
Time passed, and five years had gone by in the blink of an eye.
This year, Song Chi was already over 160 years old. In his previous life on Blue Star, he would have been an immortal old monster, but for a legitimate Stag Hunt Ship Captain of the Flame Warship Civilization, this was merely the beginning, making him a junior among juniors.
In those five years, the kingdom's fleet successfully occupied the entire Celestial Disk Galaxy, thus incorporating the vast galaxy, with a diameter of over 1.8 million light-years, into the territory of the Flame Warship Civilization.
...
Celestial Disk Galaxy, Extreme Northern Star Region.
Over the past few months, countless millions of Flame Warships from the Radiant Han Kingdom had gathered here, nearly filling the entire star region.
This massive fleet of Flame Warships aimed north, as if eager to test their might.
At the northern edge of their vision was a natural wormhole of astonishing size, connecting to another galaxy further north, the Crimson Disk Galaxy, which belonged to the territory of the Eight-Armed Serpent Civilization.
However, the enthusiasm of the Flame Warship Captains did not last long. Soon, a vast and overwhelming pressure emanating from the north completely extinguished their fervor.
Even with the combined efforts of the three kingdom's Star Destroyers, they held no advantage and were thoroughly suppressed.
Despite the three Star Destroyers of the Radiant Han Kingdom actively enduring over 90% of the pressure, the remaining power still eroded the Energy Shields of the rear Intrepid Ships, Battleships, and Stag Hunt Ships.
"Eight-tier, it must be an Eight-tier Eight-Armed Serpent Overlord..."
All the Flame Warship Captains enduring this terrifying pressure had the same answer in their minds.
Amidst their astonishment, a violent spatial fluctuation emerged from the side of the three Star Destroyers, and the pressure on the rear Flame Warships instantly dissipated.
Looking up, all the captains' eyes widened.
On the side of the three Star Destroyers, another Star Destroyer, over ten thousand kilometers long, had appeared without anyone noticing. It was this fourth Star Destroyer that completely nullified the Eight-tier lifeform pressure emanating from the spatial wormhole.
Morning Star Traverse!
"It's the Morning Star Traverse, how is that possible? Isn't Lord Rosetta Morningstar focusing on breaking through the 7th-tier Guidance Technique? What's he doing here?"
"With a 6th-tier Guidance Technique and an ordinary Divine Mind State, it's difficult to unleash even a tenth of a Star Destroyer's combat power. Isn't he afraid of accidents?"
"Could it be that he's eager to divide the territory?"
"No, I'd rather believe he's already broken through the 7th tier and become a true Star Destroyer Captain. He's an eight-thousand-year-old veteran captain; he wouldn't be unaware of this principle."
"I agree, but don't forget that he took the right arm of a Calamity Star Race Sovereign. It's a complete sovereign arm, and extracting a few drops of Sovereign Essence Blood from it would be easy. With the enhancement of Sovereign Essence Blood, and the Morningstar Family's eight-thousand-year foundation, breaking through to the 7th-tier Guidance Technique in a decade is not impossible."
...
In the public warship communication group chat, discussions erupted.
However, the most widely accepted belief was that Rosetta Morningstar had indeed broken through the 7th-tier Guidance Technique and become a true Star Destroyer Captain.
None of these thousands-of-years-old antiques were fools.
After finally promoting their ships to Star Destroyers, they still had nearly two thousand years to advance their Guidance Techniques. Who would take such a risk when success was almost guaranteed? In contrast, the encrypted group chat of the Song family was not surprised but rather filled with joy.
With the joint operations of the Song family's fleet and the Morningstar Family, and Song Wujang's active assistance to Rosetta, the family's upper echelon could guess that there was a deep cooperation between the two families.
Therefore, the more benefits the Morningstar Family, or the Morningstar Republic, could obtain from this, the more likely it would bring only advantages and no harm to the Song family.
However, before the Flame Warship Captains could think further, a terrifying figure had already emerged from the natural spatial wormhole at the front.
With blue skin and upright pupils, this lifeform stood a million kilometers tall, and even in the pitch-black Star Sea, its visual impact was indescribable.
At this moment, even the four Star Destroyer Captains showed visible signs of gravity and astonishment on their faces.
Fortunately, a golden giant shadow soon appeared above the kingdom's fleet.
A representative from the Divine Qin Ying Clan had arrived!
"Ying Chang, this star region is our clan's bottom line. If you take one step further, the Divine Qin Dynasty will declare total war!"
After speaking, the Eight-tier Eight-Armed Serpent Overlord, enveloped in overwhelming might, turned and re-entered the wormhole behind him.
From beginning to end, the golden giant shadow above did not respond.
However, all the Flame Warship Captains under the Radiant Han Kingdom understood that this expansion war had come to an end.
No matter how powerful the Divine Qin Dynasty was, it could not wage an all-out war against the Eight-Armed Serpent Civilization on its own. That would require the entire Star Sea Stellar Cluster of the Flame Warship Civilization.
"Alright, this expansion war ends here. Liu Shu, you four will stay here and not move a step until the Civilization Great Wall extends over!"
"Also, there will be personnel to take over all high-rank resource points. Those who do not meet the conditions or mine without permission will be dealt with according to pre-war regulations!!"
In the sky, the golden giant slowly spoke.
His words were more like commands than suggestions, exuding dominance.
Without waiting for the Star Destroyer Captains to respond, the golden giant shadow casually tore through the void and soon disappeared into the depths of space.
As for the four Star Destroyer Captains, they had to remain here until the Civilization Great Wall extended and the entire Celestial Disk Galaxy was incorporated into the defense circle.
Additionally, the distribution of this vast star region, spanning over 800,000 light-years, would soon commence.
