Originally, with the termination of the plan, the development of Mars had been delayed. The plan was to wait until the Federation's conditions were more mature before redeveloping the place.
It was estimated that this would take at least thirty years.
Therefore, after they retreated, they set up a seal here to prevent the Beast Tide formed by the radiation of the Divine Armament from rushing out, restoring peace to the place.
If not for the blood-colored fog and wind that engulfed half of Mars, perhaps the delay would have continued. However, the appearance of the blood-colored fog and wind, the appearance of the strange village, and the corpses in the bloody cavern led the Martian Colony Governor and the others to investigate and point all their fingers at the Divine Armament Catacombs.
They had already confirmed that the blood-colored fog and wind were caused by the seal of the Divine Armament Catacombs, which prevented the radiation of the Divine Armament's power from spreading out. As a result, the internal pressure was too great, resulting in the appearance of the blood-colored fog and wind.
As for the strange village, the various powerhouses of the Federation had no clue either. However, they thought that it had something to do with the Martian Divine Armament.
They had reason to believe that if they kept the seal, perhaps more catacombs would appear on Mars in the future … According to their calculations, it would only take ten years …
Once that happened, not only would it be impossible to develop, but it would also be dangerous for Mars.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the Martian Colony Governor proposed a bold plan. That was to build a huge array formation above the Divine Armament Catacombs in addition to the seal.
This array formation had two functions. One was to release Beast Tides at regular intervals. With this method, not only would it relieve the pressure on the catacombs, but it would also provide Mars with countless materials for research and careful observation of the changes in the Divine Armament Catacombs.
The other function … was the main point.
That was … to use the power of the array formation to slowly erode the barrier. After the Martian Colony Governor's research, with this method, it would only take ten years to erode the ice barrier to the point where it would no longer require the use of the Divine Armament. They would only need to gather the Federation's Core Formation realm powerhouses to blast it open.
Therefore, the Martian Colony Governor submitted this plan to the Federation. After the Federation's investigation and research, it was finally approved to allow the Martian Colony Governor to build an array formation outside the Divine Armament Catacombs!
The name of this array formation was … the Qi Fostering Spirit Array!
The power of this formation was astonishing. It was recorded on the huge fragment of the Qi Fostering Art when the ancient bronze sword had first arrived. It could be considered a complementary formation to the Qi Fostering Art!
This array had a special characteristic. The more people who cultivated the Qi Fostering Art in the array, the stronger the array would be.
In reality, the reason why the Qi Fostering Art was promoted by all the factions was because, on the surface, the people of the Federation cultivated the Qi Fostering Art in order to refine spirit stones, so that the Federation would have spirit stones as a currency. However, there was another secret purpose, which was to strengthen the Qi Fostering Spirit Array!
Almost all the forces were using this array formation. In fact, after every city on Earth was built, there would be array formation cultivators from the Federation who would come and set up this array formation.
In the capital of the Federation, even on Mars and the moon, the array formations were all Qi Nurturing Spirit Arrays!
However, under the research of the Federation, this array formation was slightly modified and adjusted, as if it was encrypted. Although the array formation was of the same origin, as long as the core was not controlled, it would still be an independent existence.
However, the special characteristics of this array determined that the more people cultivated the Qi Fostering Art, the more powerful it would be. At the same time, following the research, it was discovered that this array formation did not cause much harm to the people who cultivated the Qi Fostering Art. At most, it would cause them to expend more spirit stones to refine the Qi Fostering Art.
Therefore, population became the focus of the Federation.
This was also the reason why there were so many immigrants after the new city was built on Mars. Similarly, since they wanted to build an array formation outside the Divine Armament Catacombs, they naturally had to build a city here as well … After that, a large number of people from the Federation would migrate over.
Only when enough people migrated could they support the array formation here, so that it would have a sufficient effect on the development of the Divine Armament Catacombs and the erosion of the ice barrier.
All of this was top secret information. It was impossible for outsiders to know about it. Otherwise, just the Qi Fostering Spirit Array alone would cause panic among the people of the Federation. Although it did not harm their lives, the consumption of spirit stones refining would similarly cause dissatisfaction.
Wang Baole also took a deep breath after reading all of this.
"I was wondering why I felt the spirit energy leaking out when I used the Qi Fostering Art to refine spirit stones … So this is the reason!
"Also, I was also curious before. What does the construction of the new district have to do with the development of the Divine Armament? So this is the reason …" Wang Baole's heart trembled. After a long while, he suppressed it. As he thought about the Federation in his mind, he could not help but have a thought.
"The Federation's waters are too deep. The higher one goes, the more layers of veils are lifted, and the more shocking it is … Also, is it true that the Federation does not have Yuanying up until now?"
Wang Baole's expression changed. It was really some deeply ingrained knowledge that he had learned since he was young. He suddenly realized that there was a deeper meaning behind it. This matter caused his emotions to fluctuate incessantly.
After a long while, Wang Baole finally accepted this fact. He looked at the voice transmission jade scroll and fell silent. The Federation had concealed this matter too tightly. At the same time, it was also a secret that every faction did not want too many people to know about.
Now, Wang Baole also knew about this matter. However, he understood that he could not say it. This matter could not be told to anyone.
Fortunately, until now, he had not heard of any deaths that were similar to being sucked dry by the array formation in the Federation. Moreover, he had personally experienced it and did not feel any discomfort in the array formation. Moreover, Wang Baole believed that whether it was the Ethereal Sect Leader or the Grand Elder, they naturally knew about this matter. However, they still chose to tacitly admit it. At the very least, this meant that the harm this array formation did to the people was indeed limited to the consumption of spirit stones.
After all, even they were, in fact, living in the array formation.
With this thought in mind, Wang Baole heaved a sigh of relief and continued to look through the information. It was late at night when he finally finished reading this top-secret document. He also noticed that the document warned anyone who read it not to spread it in the slightest. Otherwise, it would be considered a betrayal of the Federation.
At the same time, after he finished reading it, the document automatically destroyed itself and disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the empty voice transmission jade scroll, Wang Baole closed his eyes. He digested the contents of this top-secret document while waiting for the Martian Colony Governor to summon him.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
In these three days, Wang Baole did not step out of his room. While waiting, he also began to meditate and cultivate. He could feel that his cultivation level was nearing the peak of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm. When that time came, he could try to break through and enter the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm.
The cultivation of the Thunder Dao: First Volume had also caused the Sky Thunder in his legs to be extremely full. With just a thought, his legs would flash with electric arcs.
At the same time, his cultivation of the dark art had also improved by leaps and bounds after his initial success. He could feel the presence of a Negative Spiritual Particle every time. The dark fire in his body had also successfully condensed into a second ball!
The existence of these two balls of dark fire had caused Wang Baole's cultivation speed to increase significantly. At the same time, the green lotus in his body had also grown slightly. His physical strength had automatically become stronger without needing to cultivate much.
Wang Baole even felt that the spells he cultivated were not very useful anymore. If he encountered an enemy and could not kill them with one punch, then he would punch them ten times, or even a hundred times. After all, his body was full of strength, and at the same time, his recovery speed was fast.
The only thing he regretted was his dark art ability, Corpse Face!
From the beginning to the end, he had not had the chance to use it. This made his heart itch every time he thought about it. He really wanted to see how powerful Corpse Face was.
"It's a pity that I don't have the chance …" Wang Baole lamented. He did not want to be associated with the Martian Divine Armament Catacombs after the Dark Art was exposed and be captured for research …
After all, the matter of the Dao Scripture could be offset by his status as the mayor of Ethereal Dao College and the new district. However, if the Dark Art was added to the mix, he felt that it would be strange if no one tried to pry open his mouth and get to the bottom of it.
"I have to be careful." Wang Baole reminded himself as he lamented. He continued to cultivate until noon on the fourth day … Wang Baole was cultivating when his voice transmission jade slip suddenly vibrated. The Martian office's voice transmission notification sounded solemn as it reverberated in Wang Baole's ears.
