Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 125 The Three Functions of Qiankun Ding
In front of Jiang Ye, the ancient and heavy Qiankun Ding was quietly suspended. The gloomy body of the cauldron exuded a mysterious aura, and the mysterious patterns on its surface flickered with faint light.

Jiang Ye took a deep breath, his expression solemn but with a bit of anticipation, he slowly lifted up the black rhino belt that exuded a dark color with both hands and gently put it into the Qiankun Cauldron.

Item:Black Rhino Armor
Level: Immortal Weapon
Function: It is engraved with simple secret patterns of water and space origin laws. Attacks below the primary level of immortal king will be weakened by 90%, and those above will be weakened by 30%.

Jiang Ye stared at the Qiankun Cauldron, the words appearing on the cauldron reflected in his eyes, and then without thinking, he infused the power of his own world into it.

In an instant, the Qiankun Ding began to tremble violently and emitted a low humming sound, as if it was an ancient giant beast awakened from its slumber.

The light on the tripod suddenly became stronger, like a bright sun blooming in front of Jiang Ye. In the light, the patterns on the tripod were like nimble snakes, winding and moving, interweaving with each other to form complex and mysterious patterns.

Then, a series of low roars came from the cauldron, like the roar of an ancient beast. Brilliant light gushed out from the mouth of the cauldron, rushing straight into the sky, illuminating the surrounding space with a variety of colors.

As time went by, the light became more intense, gradually gathering into a huge light cocoon, wrapping the Qiankun Cauldron in it. The surface of the light cocoon was flashing with electric light and runes were flowing.

Jiang Ye stared at the light cocoon intently, his hands constantly changing the magic spells, continuously injecting his own world power into the Qiankun Cauldron.

Only nine days later, the light cocoon slowly dissipated, and the Qiankun Ding once again revealed its heavy and ancient appearance.

The black rhino armor was quietly suspended above the mouth of the cauldron.

Jiang Ye waved his hand gently, and the belt seemed to have a spirit. It drew a graceful arc in the air and fell steadily into his hand.

At this time, the original secret patterns of the water and space origin laws on the belt became more complex and exquisite, and each pattern was flowing with a mysterious luster.

Jiang Ye immediately sent a trace of mental power into it, and the black rhino armor that he had nurtured for a long time quickly absorbed the spiritual imprint contained in the mental power and easily recognized its master.

"Boom..." Jiang Ye's consciousness roared, and a huge amount of information passed into his mind from the belt like a surging tide, and stopped after a moment.

"Hiss!" Jiang Ye took a deep breath, his face full of surprise and shock.

What came into his mind was the specific information about the current state of the Black Rhino Armor.

Item:Black Rhino Armor
Level: Ordinary heavy treasure

Function: There are two forms. When the attack is within the tolerance range of the Black Rhino Armor, the first form can weaken the material attack to 1%, and the second form can weaken the material attack to 1/1000.

If the attack exceeds the range that the Black Rhino Armor can withstand, the degree of weakening will be greatly reduced. If the power is too strong, it will be almost impossible to weaken it.

"With nine days, just by consuming some of the world's power, an immortal weapon can be upgraded to a precious treasure. It is worthy of being called the Qiankun Ding!" Jiang Ye's mind instantly recalled the information about the Qiankun Ding, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

After the system's transformation of the Qiankun Ding, the entire Qiankun Ding is roughly divided into three functions. The first one is to upgrade the level of weapons.

This is different from ordinary weapon refining. The Qiankun Ding does not require Jiang Ye to study and master any complicated and obscure refining methods.

As long as Jiang Ye throws the treasures and weapons that need to be upgraded into the Qiankun Ding, and then recites the spell to activate the Qiankun Ding while transferring his own world power.

Then wait patiently for nine days, and the weapon will be upgraded to a higher rank. This is very scary. Even if you are a master crafter who can craft top-level treasures, if you want to upgrade and forge a treasure, you not only need to spend a lot of effort to collect various rare materials, but also spend a lot of time to craft it, which is calculated in epochs, and there is also the risk of failure.

But Jiang Ye, not only does he only need nine days to succeed, he also doesn't need any materials. He just needs to exert a little bit of his own world power.

If those weapon refiners knew this, they would probably go completely crazy, even the King of Jin who was reincarnated from the Hunyuan Continent would be no exception.

Of course, the Qiankun Ding has more incredible features than just this, making it a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

This function of upgrading weapon levels is not limited to weapons of any level. As long as the weapon is lower than the level of the Qiankun Ding itself, it can be upgraded by one level unconditionally.

That is to say, if Jiang Ye has an ordinary treasure in his hand now, then with the help of Qiankun Ding, Jiang Ye can upgrade it to a top treasure. If he has a pinnacle treasure, it will be directly upgraded to the most powerful treasure (true god-level weapon).

The upgrade only takes nine days.

You must know that the human race, one of the six top races in the original universe, does not have a single powerful treasure.

Now all we need to do is give Jiang Ye a top-level treasure, and in nine days he will be able to turn it into the most powerful treasure. This ability is truly incredible.

Of course, this is not without restrictions. The entire Qiankun Ding has a total of 49 restrictions. With the help of the system, Jiang Ye has only unlocked the first restriction.

The first level of restriction can only upgrade a weapon by one level. To upgrade it again, you will need to unlock the second or even higher level of restriction.

This means that the black rhino armor in Jiang Ye's hand has been upgraded to an ordinary treasure and cannot be upgraded again!

But in general the impact is not significant. After all, if one weapon cannot be upgraded, then just change to a higher-level weapon.

The second function of the Qiankun Ding is to improve the quality of treasures. It can refine various natural treasures, extract the essence of them, or reintegrate them into new natural treasures, greatly improving their quality.

Its specific function is similar to the first function of upgrading the weapon level, except that the weapons are replaced with rare treasures.

The third function is what most furnaces have - refining magic weapons and elixirs.

As a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Qiankun Ding is definitely the top-level cauldron.

In order to enable Jiang Ye to better control this function, the system also instilled in him countless knowledge about refining equipment and alchemy from various worlds.

This knowledge is vast and covers everything from the most basic material identification and temperature control to the most profound weapon fusion and spiritual nurturing.

With Jiang Ye's current strength, he could only accept a small part of it. Therefore, most of this knowledge was gathered into a white memory crystal in his mind for Jiang Ye to accept at any time.

At the same time, Jiang Ye knew clearly that there was a difference between theory and practice. Although his mind was filled with endless knowledge, he had never really tried to refine weapons or pills.

I'm afraid that if he were asked to refine a low-level force weapon now, there would be a 50% chance that he would fail.
