Chapter 485: The Vast Expanse Dao Palace!

While Wang Baole was on his journey back to Mars, the various media outlets of the Federation were still celebrating the breakthrough achieved by the Ethereal Dao College’s Grand Supreme Elder, Li Xingwen. Everyone was in a celebratory mood, and laughter filled the entire Federation.

At the same time, few people knew that Duan Muque, the Federation President, chose to enter seclusion on the fourth day after Li Xingwen achieved a breakthrough. At the same time, protective covering was put in place over the entire capital city to prevent accidents from happening. On the other hand, even though Li Xingwen was physically in the Ethereal Dao College, he still paid attention to the capital city. If anything happened, he would go forth and ensure Duan Muque’s safety at the first instant.

After all, if Duan Muque could achieve a breakthrough as well, it would mean that the Federation would officially enter the Nascent Soul era. At the same time, what was most important was that if both of them achieved a breakthrough one after another, it would mean that it was possible for others as well.

The others would include people like the Senators, the Martian Colony Governor, the Grand Supreme Elders of the three other great Dao Colleges, the Galactic Dusk Sect, the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect, and even the Five Generation Sky Clan!

In reality, Duan Muque could be considered the second generation. He was considered a senior that had emerged from Armageddon, having experienced major transformations in the heavens and earth, as well as the beast crisis like Li Xingwen. Regardless of their capabilities or mindset, they were considered first generation elites!

Someone like him shouldn’t remain in the Core Formation realm!

There were also others who were like Duan Muque and also entered seclusion. They all desired to achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation and enter the Nascent Soul realm!

However, this was an extremely difficult step. Not only did they need time, but they also needed the right opportunity. Even though the cultivation era had begun, allowing any elite to meet with opportunities, the opportunities still differed in scale and impact.

However, matters like these weren’t a concern for Wang Baole. Right now, his cruiser had arrived on Mars. He immediately returned to the Martian special regional city, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he vaguely established a connection with the Dark Artifact underground and ensured that nothing had gone wrong.

After that, he felt troubled again. The Dark Artifact was powerful, but it was too severely damaged. If he couldn’t repair it and couldn’t take it out, it would make Wang Baole feel as if someone had handed him an extremely handsome picture of the slimmed-down version of himself. He could see and sense it, but he simply couldn’t lose the weight!

That made Wang Baole sigh continuously. In his absence, nothing major happened in the special regional city. Li Wan’er was still in seclusion, and Lin Tianhao and company all carried out their delegated duties to manage the various areas of the special regional city assigned to them. The others seemed to be excited by Li Xingwen achieving a breakthrough, and seeing that Wang Baole had achieved a breakthrough before their eyes, they also went into seclusion.

It appeared as if all the cultivators in the Federation had become motivated by Li Xingwen’s breakthrough, resulting in a cultivation craze!

Therefore, Wang Baole, who had just returned to Mars, decided to cultivate his Dark Art as well. However, just as he was about to begin cultivation in his cave, and just as the Federation was in a celebratory mood with the cultivation craze running high, an announcement was suddenly made!

Mercury was to be rebuilt!

Mercury, having experienced crisis, had been turned into a wasteland. The entire planet had nearly withered, and having been dealt with tremendous amount of damage, all it had was gloom. Riding on the high emotions of everyone, the plan announced by the Federation garnered the support of many.

At the same time, this entire matter was like a signal that made the leaders of the various factions of the Federation shocked. Based on the information that they had access to, the issue of rebuilding Mercury involved a truth that ordinary citizens didn’t know about!

“The teleportation array formation of Mercury… its official construction is about to commence.” This was the first thought that surfaced in the minds of all the leaders of the factions the moment they came to know about the Federation’s announcement to rebuild Mercury.

In reality, that was the truth. The day after the news was announced, Wang Baole immediately received a voice transmission from the Martian Colony Governor. In the voice transmission, the Martian Colony Governor passed him numerous blueprints, ordering him to produce all the parts listed on the blueprint in a stipulated time.

The resources that were needed to produce those parts would be provided by Mars!

That made Wang Baole surprised. He felt as if a storm was brewing, and after thinking about what the Grand Supreme Elder and Sect Lord had mentioned to him, and complementing it with the announcement to rebuild Mercury made by the Federation, Wang Baole made some guesses. He immediately called the Martian Colony Governor to address his queries.

The Martian Colony Governor remained silent as she thought about whether she was allowed to reveal the information. After a moment, she took a deep breath, and with the Great Martian Array Formation suddenly in full activation through some unknown method of hers, the voice transmission between them was made even more private. This prevented anyone from eavesdropping, and it was only then that she began to speak.

“You must have heard the Federation’s announcement to rebuild Mercury. However, this is just what appears on the surface. The underlying goal of rebuilding Mercury is to build a huge teleportation array formation there!

“Actually, this teleportation array formation is already in the process of construction. However, many resources are still lacking, and the time isn’t ripe yet. Therefore, progress is slow. That, coupled with the crisis they just experienced, what’s left behind are tatters.

“However, the right time is arriving. This is why the Federation has picked up speed. They are planning to proceed with the construction of the teleportation array formation that could lead to the ancient greenish-bronze sword!

“Therefore, in reality, not just you, but all the Dharmic Armament cultivators of the Federation have been tasked to produce the parts. These parts would eventually be gathered together to form the teleportation array formation!”

Listening to the Martian Colony Governor’s words, Wang Baole was somewhat bewildered. A million thoughts ran through his mind, and he suddenly spoke.

“A mission for the Federation Seedlings?”

“Some matters could be made known to you based on your authority level. However, the method of informing you is especially stringent, and it couldn’t be directly told to you on Earth. Of course, this issue seems exaggerated, and perhaps somewhat petty, but no one is willing to risk it. After all, this doesn’t involve just one person, but the entire Federation, the entire civilization, and the livelihood of all humankind!” The Martian Colony Governor didn’t give a direct answer. However, what she said explained why the Grand Supreme Elder and Sect Lord had been cryptic in their words while Wang Baole was in the Ethereal Dao College.

The more that was the case, the more bizarre Wang Baole’s look was. He didn’t say anything and instead waited for the Martian Colony Governor to give him the information.

Seemingly satisfied by how steady Wang Baole was in the face of such a major event, the Martian Colony Governor remained silent for a moment, and then she lowered her voice again as she spoke.

“Baole, what I’m about to tell you is a top secret that can only be released when ninety percent of the Secondary Rank One Nobles in the Federation agree…

“Over forty years ago, a transformation occurred in the cosmos, and an immense ancient greenish-bronze sword entered the Solar System. Its suppressive force alone overturned the entire cosmos, and this sword eventually pierced the sun, revealing a small portion of its tip!

“The sword handle was shattered, and its pieces landed within the Solar System. That resulted in energy failure throughout the Federation since the Spirit Inception Era, and the immortal cultivation emerged… However, in reality, this ancient greenish-bronze sword originated from another cultivation civilization whose level of civilization far surpasses that of our own. This sword alone is only a sect of that civilization!

“In other words, it was an ark. They escaped from danger but met with an accident, which resulted in them landing within the Solar System!”

“There are still people living on the ancient sword, and their numbers are significant!” As the Martian Colony Governor reached this point in her revelation, Wang Baole’s breathing quickened, but he wasn’t too surprised. Instead, after taking a deep breath, he waited for the Martian Colony Governor to continue.

“According to our intelligence, the sect of the ancient greenish-bronze sword is known as the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!

“The Vast Expanse Dao Palace, having gone through that series of events, suffered some damage. It has also been segregated into three factions that are each under the leadership of three leaders with different ideologies!

“One faction is known as the Darkness Faction, and they insist on leaving this place and heading to the destination that they had set out for in their original plan. However, as the ancient sword has been severely damaged, their plan is to ravage the entire solar system for resources to repair the sword and achieve their goal!

“If they become the main authoritative body, a crisis would fall upon the Federation. You can imagine that all of the Stellar Source in the Solar System would be lost. That, coupled with all of the energy of the sun being taken away, would result in the entire solar system becoming a wasteland. As for us, the most likely outcome would be becoming slaves of this sect!”
