While Bruno was excited, thinking of various nas inspired by gas, Alm was focused, noticing sothing peculiar about that shining mark. It was unlike anything they had seen before; it was called a runic seal, but it didn’t resemble a celestial law. At the sa ti, it radiated a slight harmony with the heavens.
"This isn’t complete..." Alm murmured with conviction. "The laws of this world resonate with it, but they don’t fully adhere."
Bruno imdiately stopped to analyze. Then, suddenly, a new green window appeared before them.
[Forge God’s Runic Seal, level one, unlocked.]
[Available seal types: 3]
[Sharpening]
[Storage]
[Parasite]
[Select the chosen one.]
Alm and Bruno read the options and were imdiately surprised. Information about the capabilities of each one flowed instantly into their minds, along with a basic idea of runic seals.
In many universes, a blacksmith was soone capable of manipulating tals, rocks, and wood to create equipnt and weapons, using thods that could range from simple to extrely complex; it depended only on the need and skills of the creator.
The Forge God was indeed supre in all basic forging thods. However, individuals close to him or on the sa level already existed in many universes. His supremacy did not solely lie in the basic forging thods; the "Heaven’s Will" designated him as a god not for the transcendence of his weapons but for his divine creation: the runic seals.
These seals had entirely unique forms, unlike anything ever seen; they were an imitation of celestial laws made by a mortal. These runes were ticulously thought out with the aim of mimicking an aspect of the laws, blending various parts and adapting them to create sothing genuinely new. Runic seals were indeed a divine creation recognized by the "Heaven’s Will" itself.
When applied to equipnt, runic seals were sothing hidden that couldn’t be sensed or asured in advance. So runic seals had a one-ti use, others had temporary use with cooldowns, and so depended on the amount of QI previously placed in them.
Among the available options, the Sharpening seal significantly increased cutting power when activated. The effect was temporary, depending on the QI of the seal. It was more common in weapons, but there was no real restriction.
The Storage seal allowed the addition of Laws and QI to the rune. At low levels, it could be used to assist in a technique and reduce its cost. At extre levels, it was even possible to store ready-made laws of an entire technique and use it without QI cost once.
The Parasite seal, when activated, made the weapon deal much more damage, rging with the user’s body and ridians. However, the cost was that all damage dealt was also received by the weapon, and consequently, the user was injured to the sa extent. Its use was unique and potentially lethal.
"These three are considered basic seals? They seem to have extre potential," Bruno comnted, taking a deep breath in awe. "We only bought level one of the Forge God’s Dao. In the other levels, they must have even more different things."
Both Alm and Bruno instinctively understood one thing: these runes were the most basic, but they were not inferior to others when unleashed at higher levels. These three seals could be upgraded according to the material’s forging capacity, potentially matching higher-level seals. However, working with more powerful tals required them to elevate their understanding of this Dao, and that would take ti.
Using the Storage seal as an example, its internal space depended entirely on enhancent. Imdiately, it offered simple support, reducing the QI cost. But when upgraded, it could use a technique almost instantly without any QI cost. It was a lifesaving card.
"Almost a third of all the terrestrial black iron was used to make a single armor. It took hundreds of attempts... but the failures were due to this seal... completing a single one is very difficult," Bruno comnted, impressed.
Alm replied, contemplating, "The difficulty is proportional to the benefit. If we strive, in these remaining days, we can create one or two more things. Hopefully, we’ll test all these seals. But which one to use now?"
After analyzing and working on the terrestrial black iron, Alm and Bruno had a good understanding of its properties. It is ford with the intense influence of earth laws, so its weight and defensive power are high. However, in return, the ability to infuse QI and, consequently, the attack power is diocre.
"If we put the Storage seal on this armor and add our earth laws, when activated, it should give an extraordinary survival ability. It will be perfect for soone pathetic like Almin, so he doesn’t die so quickly," Bruno calmly analyzed.
Alm agreed but soon had an idea that made him give a wicked laugh. "A heavy sword made of this material, with the Sharpening seal, should beco sothing exceptional. It will beco heavy and extrely tough due to this iron and, at the sa ti, gain the cutting attack power of the seal, balancing it. It will beco sothing perfect in all aspects."
Bruno was in control of the body, so the whale’s heart soon began to beat frantically, and he spoke, "We’re in an ascending world, so the laws are incomplete, and minerals have many flaws. But with these runic seals, we can use the best of each material and still not suffer from its negatives. Hahahahah."
In this mont of Bruno’s exhilaration, Alm had another sinister idea. "Well, this Parasite seal... it will have so good uses."
Bruno seed to perfectly understand Alm’s ideas without him explaining. They received the Dao and everything about these runic seals directly from the system. Even if the Forge God had had a disciple, that disciple wouldn’t co close to them in terms of knowledge. They were almost like a reincarnation of the god himself.
They needed abyss crystals, and these weapons of theirs possessed a unique capability that wouldn’t be found anywhere else. So, why not sell them?
"No! I won’t give them to those evil cultivators, empowering them with the ability to massacre even more." Bruno said without much thought.
"Hehehe... you’re thinking too simple. We forged these things, and we know every aspect of creating these seals," Alm spoke, his sinister smile intensifying, revealing his villainous side.
"We have a specialist in sealing hidden things very close to us. She even sealed her body and soul. How hard can it be to seal so ’gifts’ for these idiots?" Alm concluded, causing Bruno’s mind to click.
