Chapter 498: The Golden Apex Emperor Sword
Chapter 498: The Golden Apex Emperor Sword
After that, the Fourth-Rank Dark Night Elf made several more trips, and only after a long time did Song Chi and the New Moon Matriarch finally reach an agreement.
Time passed, and more than ten hours flew by in the blink of an eye. Song Chi initially thought that there wouldn't be anything else of interest in this transaction, but a few hours before the Celestial Marketplace transaction was about to end, a new customer arrived at the Oddity Exchange Shop.
It wasn't really a new customer, as this person was already a frequent visitor to the Pantheonic Marketplace and the Divine Kingdom Player Trading Space. It's just that they were rarely seen entering the Oddity Exchange Shop.
It was the Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin who had been controlling the Origin Stone transactions.
If that was all, Song Chi wouldn't have paid much attention, as the number of exotic races visiting the Oddity Exchange Shop during each Celestial Marketplace transaction was not small.
The key point was that after entering the Oddity Exchange Shop, this Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin's gaze mostly remained on the several counters in the center of the shop.
The counters held some of the most valuable oddities in the Celestial Marketplace.
For example, the black Ultimate rarity oddity 'Primordial Essence Stone' obtained from the Pursuer Immortal's storage bag, as well as the golden oddities 'Starlight Compass' and 'Thunder Seal'.
However, through the capturing ability of his Dual Pupil, Song Chi confirmed that the gaze of this Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin lingered mostly on the 'Primordial Essence Stone'.
"Could it be that the power behind this person can offer an Ultimate rarity oddity of the same rank?"
With this thought, Song Chi paid even more attention to the Half-Ratkin.
Two minutes later, after spending some time in the Oddity Exchange Shop, the Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin suddenly spoke with reverence.
"Your Majesty, the ruler of the Celestial Marketplace, can this Primordial Essence Stone only be exchanged for an oddity of the same rank?"
Upon hearing this, Song Chi pondered for a moment, and then his thoughts shifted. New law text had already appeared on the projection screen in the center of the shop.
"What other items do you have?"
The Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin didn't hesitate, and soon, several items appeared in his hand as his body glowed with light.
"A body space similar to the Flame Seed Nucleus..."
Song Chi muttered to himself, not paying too much attention. There were countless extraordinary systems in the Shattered Star Sea, and many of them could create body spaces.
His gaze remained focused on the few items taken out by the Half-Ratkin.
There were a total of four items, two of which emitted golden light.
Song Chi focused his attention and soon obtained the attributes of the two golden Sacred Realm oddities.
Oddity: Apex Emperor Sword
Quality: Golden
Convertible: {Apex Emperor Sword}
Note: A sacred artifact from the Divine Continent, crafted by an ancient Great Emperor using various immortal gold, and after being nurtured by the Emperor's power for tens of thousands of years, it finally transformed into a golden Sacred Realm oddity.
...
Oddity: Blood Emperor Sacrificial Cauldron
Quality: Golden
Convertible: None
Note: An ancient sacrificial vessel passed down from ancient times on the Divine Continent, which has undergone an incredible transformation after the passage of time.
...
Both golden oddities were related to the word 'Emperor', and Song Chi recalled the information he had heard from the Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin about the Divine Continent.
The Emperor was an almighty existence in the Divine Continent, and based on what he had heard, Song Chi speculated that the Emperors they spoke of were at least Seventh-Rank Sovereign or higher.
As he was thinking, a new attribute panel popped up in front of him, the ship component attributes of the 'Apex Emperor Sword'.
Apex Emperor Sword lv0
Quality: Golden
Attribute: True Armor Piercing
Attribute 2: Power Increase 240%
Attribute 3: Double Strike
Attribute 4: Constantly reduce charging and buffering time by 50%
Attribute 5: Ancient Apex Annihilation Strike
...
{Ancient Apex Annihilation Strike: Consumes 150,000 Ether Points. Summons the ancient apex power to empower the Apex Emperor Sword, the next strike will contain 2000% of the ship cannon's normal attack power, destroying all visible objects. Cooldown: 1 year.}
The attributes of the 'Apex Emperor Sword' were excellent, but Song Chi wasn't very interested in it, as it was a Star Annihilation Cannon, and the Heaven Ruin Skydome was still far from being a Star Annihilation Ship.
Song Chi estimated that it would take at least a thousand years or more for the Heaven Ruin Skydome to advance to a Star Annihilation Ship, and that was assuming everything went smoothly without any unexpected events. Otherwise, it would take even longer.
With the current capabilities of the Heaven Ruin Skydome and the scale of the Pantheonic Marketplace and Divine Kingdom Player Trading Space, he didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to obtain a golden Star Annihilation Cannon in the next thousand years.
As he thought this, his gaze shifted to the other two items.
The items that this Fourth-Rank Half-Ratkin had brought out along with the golden Sacred Realm oddities were certainly not ordinary, even if they weren't Star Sea oddities, their value would still be considerable.
"Hmm... is this a Sovereign Spirit?"
With the power of his Dual Pupil's piercing gaze, he easily captured the item within the small stone box of the two.
【28 Sovereign Spirits】
This was exactly what Song Chi needed at the moment, but it wasn't enough to make him turn his head in surprise. Compared to a Black Ultimate Oddity, the value of 28 Sovereign Spirits was far inferior.
His gaze quickly shifted to the last clan, which was also a stone box, but instead of a Sovereign Spirit, it contained a drop of golden blood emitting a terrifying aura.
【A drop of Eighth Rank Sovereign Essence Blood】
"What a pity, it's just essence blood..."
After reaching this conclusion, Song Chi shook his head.
If it were a source blood, he might have felt the urge to trade for it.
Because a drop of Eighth Rank Sovereign Source Blood could greatly increase the success rate of the subsequent attempt to challenge the Star Annihilator Ship with the 【Pillar of Stability】.
For a Sixth Rank Fearless Ship to challenge the Star Annihilator Ship, it was no longer possible to simply use alien blood to significantly increase the promotion success rate. The key factors were the source blood rank, the degree of Law Comprehension, and the inclusion of special resource formulas and additional promotion resources.
A drop of Eighth Rank Sovereign Source Blood could directly increase the promotion success rate by more than 15%. If combined with a special resource formula, Song Wujiang's Spatial Law Comprehension, and a Sixth Rank 【Time Boundary Fruit】 as a backup, the promotion success rate would undoubtedly reach an impressive value. With this, the Song family of Dragon Spine could potentially leap into the ranks of the immortal aristocratic families.
However, essence blood was of much lower value. From the corpse of a Sovereign being, only one drop of source blood could be extracted, but essence blood could yield more than twenty drops, and even more for species with robust flesh like Cosmic Beasts, Giants, and Dragons.
Compared to source blood, essence blood was far less valuable.
So, Song Chi quickly responded:
【These four items are not enough to exchange for the 【Primordial Essence Stone】!】
Upon receiving this reply, the Fourth Rank Half-Mouse Man showed no surprise, as he had already guessed this outcome.
His gaze lingered on the 【Primordial Essence Stone】 for a moment before he bowed and left.
Watching the Fourth Rank Half-Mouse Man leave the shop, Song Chi's eyes reflected a thoughtful expression.
If he wasn't mistaken, when the Half-Mouse Man left, there was still a hint of longing for the 【Primordial Essence Stone】 in his eyes. Although he didn't say more, Song Chi felt that there might be a follow-up.
"I hope it will bring me some surprises later..."
Through this exchange, Song Chi had elevated the importance of the Fourth Rank Half-Mouse Man to a level comparable to the Wizard Civilization and the Nightshade Elves.
Since awakening the Flame Seed and becoming a Flame Heritage Captain, more than two hundred years had passed. During these two centuries, despite continuous adventures and the assistance of the Pantheonic Marketplace and the Divine Kingdom Player Trading Space, Song Chi had only managed to acquire one and a half Black Ultimate Oddities.
One of them was the 【Black Hole Evolution Layer】, and the half-item was the 【Celestial Annihilation Spear】. For a Flame Heritage Captain commanding a Flame Heritage Battleship, any Oddity that couldn't be converted into ship components was only considered half an item.
It was clear how rare Black Ultimate Oddities were. If he could obtain one from the Fourth Rank Half-Mouse Man, it would be an excellent addition to the entire Heaven Ruin Skydome.
After collecting his thoughts, this round of marketplace trading soon came to an end.
When all the Star Sea aliens were sent out of the marketplace, Song Chi entered the Oddity Exchange Shop. His gaze swept across the various counters in the shop.
In no time, he had tallied up the quantities of various Oddities in the entire shop.
"One Black Ultimate Oddity, three Golden Holy Realm Oddities, twenty-nine Silver Legendary Oddities, three hundred and eighty Red Epic Oddities, one thousand six hundred and thirty-six Orange Glory Oddities, and over six hundred Purple and lower-ranked Oddities."
Feeling the fruits of his labor over the past two hundred years, Song Chi quickly exited the Oddity Exchange Shop.
In the corner at the back of the marketplace, there was an enclosed space that had been isolated early on to serve as a storage room. Song Chi made his way to this secluded area.
In the corner at the entrance of this enclosed space, a considerable number of storage capsules were neatly stacked.
These storage capsules were not ordinary ones; they were premium storage capsules secretly acquired by Elon from the Star Origin Empire. Each capsule had a capacity of twenty cubic meters, not too large, but if more than ten could be equipped on a warship, the additional space they provided would be quite impressive.
However, Song Chi's gaze wasn't focused on these premium storage capsules but on the ordinary storage capsule at the top, which had a clear label attached to it.
Reaching out, Song Chi opened the storage capsule.
In that instant, a burst of colorful light shot out from the capsule, reflecting on Song Chi's face, causing him to squint subconsciously.
Indeed, the capsule contained hundreds of oddities that could be transformed into ship components. After fifty years, the Celestial Marketplace naturally had not only accumulated numerous oddities that couldn't be converted into ship components but also a significant number of ship components.
Some were acquired from the hands of the alien races in the marketplace, while others were traded or obtained through missions in the Divine Kingdom Player Trading Space.
Of course, most of them were acquired by Wang Zhen, Pan Yuan, and Shen Youran through their respective channels and eventually placed here by the Sovereign Avatar.
Song Chi quickly took inventory and soon had a precise count.
Silver-grade components: 3
Red-grade components: 24
Orange-grade components: 99
Purple-grade components: 320
Before his seclusion, Song Chi had only instructed the Sovereign Avatar to collect oddities that could be transformed into purple-grade and above components, hence the limited number of four hundred. Otherwise, if blue and white-grade components were included, there would be at least a thousand more.
However, white and blue-grade components had limited value and couldn't earn many points in the Star Tower Mall, so Song Chi had the Sovereign Avatar set them aside. They could be sent back to the family later.
The Song family was currently in a rapid development phase, and the demand for white and blue-grade components was at an all-time high, which was perfect.
After returning to the Dragon Spine Continent, Song Chi handed over the four-digit number of blue and white-grade components to his third uncle, who was in charge of the family's affairs. He then immediately returned to the marketplace.
To be more precise, he returned to the Silver Disc Floating Continent.
Silver Disc Marketplace, Central Area, Tai Bai Shop.
On the top floor of the shop, Song Chi's figure appeared quietly. After leaving the marketplace, he didn't rush downstairs but instead took out the Bright Light Order Token 32 from the Flame Seed Nucleus.
This time, his figure didn't appear, but a part of his consciousness logged into the Bright Light Star Tower through projection.
Song Chi had been dedicated to collecting various ship components, but for what purpose? It was to exchange them for points in the Star Tower Mall. As a tower that had stood for two hundred thousand years, the Bright Light Star Tower had a depth that was beyond the imagination of others. Even with Song Chi's current experience, he still coveted many items in the Star Tower Mall.
For example, there was an item called the "Multi-Eyed Clan Origin Pupil Essence," which, according to the Star Tower AI, could assist in comprehending and practicing secret techniques related to the eyes.
The Dual Pupil granted by the Bright Dual Blood Pact didn't need this, but the Martial Dao Celestial Eye, which he had never been able to master, desperately needed its assistance.
In addition, there were also sixth-grade Void Crystals and even Sovereign Blood and True Spirit.
As Song Chi strode towards the Star Tower Mall window, he slowly took out the hundreds of components he had already stored in the Flame Seed Nucleus.
However, there was a slight surprise. Before him, there was already someone else at the Star Tower.
Seeing this figure who had also logged in through projection, Song Chi politely greeted him.
"White Brow, long time no see!"
This figure was none other than the owner of the 30th Bright Light Star Order, White Brow, who rarely spoke in the Star Order group chat.
"Hmm!"
As always, this person only nodded slightly in response to the friendly greeting and said nothing further.
Song Chi, who was already accustomed to this, didn't mind. He raised his gaze and scanned the area, noticing that White Brow was exchanging an ice-attribute Advanced Law Crystal.
Once the transaction was complete, she quickly vacated her spot.
Song Chi handed over all the components to the Star Tower AI and, while it assessed their value, he began searching through the mall's various items.
First, he looked for the "Multi-Eyed Clan Origin Pupil Essence," which was crucial for comprehending the Martial Dao Celestial Eye. Song Chi wouldn't hesitate to spend mall points on it.
In the end, he exchanged three "Multi-Eyed Clan Origin Pupil Essences" for a total of 1500 points, and he also exchanged five sixth-grade Void Crystals, spending 3500 points.
These sixth-grade Void Crystals must have been traded by a member recently, as they weren't there before. Unfortunately, there were only five, and Song Chi took them all.
However, when Song Chi searched for seventh-grade Angel Blood, he couldn't find it.
Just as he frowned, a faint voice came from behind him.
"Do you need seventh-grade Angel Blood?"
