Mars trembled and the earth rumbled. Cracks appeared on the surface of Mars and spread rapidly in all directions. At the center of the cracks was … the new city of Mars!
If one were to look from the sky, they would see that the land with the new city of Mars at its core had formed a ring. The ring spread rapidly and covered more than half of Mars in an instant.
However, this shattering didn't cause the surface to collapse. Although the people living on Mars felt the earth tremble, it didn't destroy any buildings, nor did it hurt anyone.
Instead, there were wisps of black aura that grew from the cracks that covered more than half of Mars and rushed into space. If one were to look closely, they would see that there were many fine particles in the fog.
Therefore, as the people on Mars were shocked, they saw with their own eyes that the fog and particles were continuously rising into the sky and gathering together. Finally, they turned into a storm that emitted a strong aura of death. After rushing into space, they turned into a long river that went straight for the sword tip of the ancient greenish-bronze sword.
It was so fast that it seemed to be able to move. In the next instant … it gathered beside the sword tip of the ancient greenish-bronze sword. At the moment it arrived, Wang Baole's heart cheered. The fog quickly gathered together, and the particles in it seemed to be combining at this moment. As they fused together, they formed … a small boat that could only fit one person!
On this boat, as the remaining particles fused together, they formed a black robe that covered one's head and an illusory lamp oar that emitted a dim light!
As they appeared, the aura of a divine weapon that surpassed that of the Federation's crimson flying dagger suddenly erupted from the black robe and lamp oar!
It was the Dark Artifact of the Dark Sect!
Although it wasn't on the same level as the ancient greenish-bronze sword, and the difference was so great that it wasn't something that Wang Baole could surpass. However … if it was a powerful being from the Star Domain who was recognized by him to be able to use the Dark Artifact, they would be able to break through the array formation, step on it, and directly threaten the powerful being from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!
This … was Wang Baole's deterrence!
First, he had revealed the protection that the Inferno Laozu had given him. Then, he had used his scabbard to shake the ancient sword, telling the other party that he could control it. At the same time, he had summoned Little Missy to prove that his original relationship with the Vast Expanse Dao Palace should not be one of war!
After that, he would summon the Dark Artifact to make the final threat. Although he didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was clear. That was … he, Wang Baole, had the ability to severely injure or even kill an almighty expert who had yet to recover from his injuries!
All of this brought shock to the almighty being on the third altar. It could be said that wave after wave of shock crashed into him, causing his pupils to slowly shrink. He grew increasingly silent. No matter how he weighed the situation, he felt that once they became enemies, the consequences would be dire.
This made him have no choice but to pay more attention to Wang Baole. On the other hand, the Stellar realm youth's expression had changed completely. His breathing quickened, and there was panic in his eyes. He wasn't stupid, and he could tell that something was amiss. Hence, he trembled and was about to speak.
However, before he could speak, the almighty being on the third altar had a determined look in his eyes. Although he couldn't afford to offend the Inferno Laozu, he had the protection of the ancient greenish-bronze sword. However, the Planet realm cultivator in front of him could shake the ancient sword. This changed everything. Furthermore, there was the appearance of the strange Dark Artifact, and … the Saintess, whose physical body was injured but whose background was terrifying.
All of this made it so that he didn't need to weigh the pros and cons anymore. Hence, in the next instant, the almighty being sighed. He raised his right hand and waved it. Suddenly, a huge pressure descended on the Stellar realm youth amidst a loud boom.
This caused the youth to vomit blood and let out a shrill scream.
"Laozu …"
"Shut up!" The Almighty from the Star Domain answered him with a faint voice. The instant he finished speaking, the young Star Realm cultivator coughed up blood again. His body, which was already injured, was injured again. All the recovery he had done over the years went down the drain, and his condition was even worse than before.
As he trembled, he did not even have the time to reveal a venomous look in his eyes before he fainted in that incredibly weak state. His soul was the same. Even though he could slowly recover on the altar, if he wanted to return to one-tenth of his previous cultivation base, he would need at least several hundred years, and if he wanted to return to his peak state … even a thousand years would be considered to be at the very least.
After doing all this, the almighty being sitting cross-legged on the third altar looked at Wang Baole. Wang Baole took a deep breath and put away the anger and arrogance on his face. He cupped his fists and bowed deeply to the almighty being.
"Junior Wang Baole greets senior. Thank you for upholding justice!"
The almighty being snorted coldly. He didn't like Wang Baole very much. He couldn't help but look away and look at the Saintess of his own sect. Only then did his gaze soften. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Baole spoke again loudly.
"I respect senior's temperament and admire senior's righteous actions. At the same time, I have received a favor from the Dao Palace and am willing to make my own contribution to heal senior and the Dao Palace's cultivators. Therefore … I plan to hold a grand ceremony in a month's time and ask my master, Lieyan Laozu, for a civilization with a Stellar realm to come over and integrate into our solar system!
"With this, senior's recovery speed will be accelerated and the level of our solar system civilization will also be raised!"
As soon as Wang Baole spoke, the mighty figure from the Dao Palace Star Domain, who had been displeased with him, widened his eyes and turned to look at Wang Baole.
"You want to integrate a civilization with a Stellar realm?"
Wang Baole's expression didn't change as he nodded.
"This is just the first. I have other plans. I will bring more Stellar Realms over and integrate them into the solar system. This will speed up the recovery of senior and the others' cultivation!"
Wang Baole smiled, but he was very calm. He knew that the Vast Expanse Dao Palace shouldn't be an enemy. Their hatred for the Never-Ending Clan made them natural allies.
However, even if they were allies, they had to respect each other. Otherwise, they wouldn't be allies but slaves.
Therefore, he had to put on a front. After all, if he could form a true alliance with the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, it would be very beneficial to the Federation. At the same time, he knew that if he wanted to achieve his goals, he had to offer something that would move the other party. Perhaps there were many things that could move the almighty being of the Star Domain, but Wang Baole thought about it and decided that the only thing he could offer was to integrate the Divine Eye civilization into their solar system so that their recovery speed would be doubled.
Moreover, if he had proposed this so-called gift from the start, the effect would have been barely satisfactory. This was because their statuses weren't equal. At the same time, if he had used this to threaten and punish the Stellar realm, it would have created a negative effect.
That was why he had killed Senior Brother De Yunzi as soon as he had appeared. Then, he had shown his trump card so aggressively that the almighty being of the Star Domain had no choice but to punish the Stellar realm youth.
At this point, to a certain extent, he had already obtained the qualifications to be considered an equal. That was why he had proposed a gift after the other party was very displeased. Moreover, he had given such a big gift right away. This kind of military first, then courtesy, was displayed with ease in his hands.
All of this was naturally understood by the almighty being of the Star Domain sitting on the altar. When he looked at Wang Baole, there was a deeper look in his eyes. At the same time, he understood that Wang Baole's main goal in integrating the Stellar realm was to increase the level of the civilization here. However, he had to admit that as the level of the Solar System's civilization increased, he and the others would also benefit greatly in terms of recovery of their cultivation.
At the same time, Wang Baole's last sentence had moved him greatly. If Wang Baole could continuously increase the level of the Federation's civilization and make the Stellar realm stronger, then the benefits would be too great for him.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, the Star Domain realm mighty figure looked at Wang Baole with a calm gaze, and he nodded.
"Thank you, my young friend. Qing Lingzi didn't know his limits and almost made a huge mistake by destroying the alliance between the Dao Palace and the Federation. He is indeed at fault for this. The Dao Palace and the Federation shouldn't be enemies. We have a common enemy …" At this point, the almighty being glanced at the Dark Artifact outside and suddenly realized that the Planet realm cultivator in front of him had taken out a divine weapon that clearly carried the aura of the Dark Sect. His purpose was to remind him that he was related to the Dark Sect and that their enemies … were the same!
"What a meticulous, courageous, and resourceful cultivator …" Thinking back to the younger generation of the Dao Palace, the almighty being of the Star Domain sighed softly and spoke again.
"From now on, the Dao Palace will not participate in any internal affairs of the Federation. We will only share in cultivation. When foreign enemies invade, we will fight against them together and advance and retreat together!"
"Thank you, senior!" Wang Baole took a deep breath, cupped his fists again, and bowed deeply.
