Artifact Emperor pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Nine-Patterned Secret Treasures are different from other secret treasures."
"Although the seven-pattern and eight-pattern belong to the third tier of secret treasures along with the nine-pattern,"
"the gap between them is actually very large."
"This is much like Venerate Level Gods, where powerful Venerate Level Gods can easily crush beginner-level Venerate Level Gods."
"The same goes for Nine-Patterned Secret Treasures, which far surpass secret treasures of other levels in both quality and function."
"Moreover, there are great differences in their forging."
"Not only do they require precious materials, but the carved secret patterns are also extremely complex."
"It takes a massive amount of time."
"Since you want to upgrade to a Nine-Patterned Secret Treasure, no problem."
"I once received guidance from your teacher, Deep Space Institute Master. Their realms are profound, and they can see what we cannot."
"Following that guidance, I have created two templates tailored to Destruction Cosmic Power."
"Battle armor and weapons suited for your lineage can be made according to these templates."
With that, he projected a large screen.
Then, he continued operating it as he spoke:
"A Nine-Patterned Secret Treasure requires a massive amount of precious materials. You are still making two items this time."
"To be honest, Nine-Patterned Secret Treasures are extremely expensive. Many Venerate Level Gods exhaust their entire fortunes and still might not be able to forge one. You must mentally prepare yourself."
Lin Qi nodded upon hearing this. "I understand."
Artifact Emperor finished and projected a list containing a massive quantity of materials.
Even Lin Qi felt amazed that so many precious materials were actually required.
It seemed that forging this Nine-Patterned Secret Treasure would not be easy.
Thus, he looked at the list and began searching his Source Core Space.
