Wang Baole, who was holding the voice transmission ring, felt a little awkward. After muttering a few words, he hurriedly left the Alchemy Pavilion's main hall and went to the Ethereal Dao Sect's Sect Master's residence.
Here, he saw the Ethereal Dao Sect's Sect Master meditating with his legs crossed. After carefully observing the Ethereal Dao Sect's Sect Master's expression, Wang Baole wisely did not mention Little Zhao. Instead, he sat beside him and asked about the Core Formation cultivation techniques.
"Baole, there are a total of 79 complete Core Formation cultivation techniques in Ethereal Dao College. According to their grades, they are divided into four categories, A, B, C, and D. There are seven A categories and nineteen B categories …" The Ethereal Dao Sect's Sect Master looked at Wang Baole, took out a jade slip, and handed it over.
Wang Baole's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took it and read it.
The jade slip did not record the detailed cultivation process of the cultivation techniques, but it did briefly introduce the pros and cons. Not only did it include the complete cultivation techniques, but there were also many incomplete manuals that had descriptions.
But soon, Wang Baole frowned slightly. In reality, after looking through the seventy-nine complete cultivation techniques, he felt that they were all very ordinary. Even the seven A-category cultivation techniques weren't very profound and couldn't be compared to his Dark Art. However, even if he were to compare them to the Lightning Dao: First Volume, they still paled in comparison.
Only two of them were not bad. However, one of them was the Art of Clouds, which was more inclined towards speed and ethereality. This was the core cultivation technique of Ethereal Dao College, and it was also the cultivation technique that most of the Ethereal Dao College's Core Formation Elders cultivated.
However, it was not very suitable for Wang Baole. On one hand, he had condensed the Thunder Core during his Foundation Establishment. On the other hand, Wang Baole had cultivated to this point and already had his own battle style. That kind of indomitable dominance was somewhat contradictory to the Art of Clouds.
As for the other manual, it was a Dao Enlightenment Technique that the Grand Supreme Elder had partially created. Wang Baole only took a glance at it and directly ignored it. He did not want to be part of the Dao Enlightenment lineage.
As a result, it was quite difficult to choose. Although some of the incomplete techniques were not bad, they were more or less incomplete and were not the most suitable choice.
At the same time, the cultivation techniques that Wang Baole saw in the Dark Dream were mostly related to the Dark Art. As for those that were not related, they were all cultivation techniques that were above the Spirit Celestial Realm. This made Wang Baole frown.
"Sect Leader, I cultivated the Lightning Dao: First Volume when I was in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Is there no Lightning Dao: Second Volume?" There was one thing that Wang Baole didn't say, and that was … if he didn't have it, why did he ask him to cultivate the first chapter?
"The method of thunder dao was obtained from the lightning realm fragments of the Dao Academy, so there's naturally a middle section." The Ethereal Sect's expression was normal as he took out a jade scroll from his storage bag and handed it to Wang Baole. What was recorded on it was the Thunder Dao: Second Volume.
Wang Baole received it and took a look. A look of suspicion appeared on his face. He raised his head and looked at the Sect Lord. He couldn't understand why the Sect Lord had given him the Lightning Dao: Second Volume, and it seemed to be a good technique, but why had the Sect Lord given it to him later?
Seeing Wang Baole's puzzlement, the Ethereal Sect Leader shook his head and sighed.
"Baole, according to our original plan, I had you cultivate the Lightning Dao: First Volume so that you could continue cultivating the Thunder Dao: Second Volume after you reached the Core Formation stage. Even if the Dao Academy didn't have the latter part, if you really did reach the Yuanying stage one day … it wouldn't be too difficult to switch to another cultivation technique.
"But I didn't expect that you would reach the Core Formation stage so quickly and that your combat strength would be so astonishing. Therefore … although the Thunder Dao: Second Volume is not bad, it's not the most suitable for you. It might even affect and limit your cultivation speed and combat strength!
"That's why I hesitated and didn't give it to you immediately."
After hearing the Ethereal Sect Leader's words, Wang Baole fell into deep thought. He put down the Thunder Dao: Second Volume jade scroll and looked at the Sect Leader. He felt that since the Sect Leader had spoken, he must have already discussed it with the Grand Supreme Elder. Then, he must have already made a decision regarding his cultivation technique.
"The cultivation techniques of our Ethereal Dao College are already considered the top cultivation techniques of the Federation. But that's only relative to the Federation. According to our judgment, if these cultivation techniques are compared to those of the larger cultivation civilizations, I'm afraid … they're just mediocre!
"What's truly valuable are the incomplete techniques. But it's difficult to display their value …" Seeing that Wang Baole was calm and not anxious, a smile appeared on the Ethereal Sect Leader's face.
"However, as one of the Hundred Seedlings of the Federation, perhaps after some time, you'll have the opportunity to obtain … cultivation techniques that far surpass those of the Federation's cultivation civilization!" At this point, the Ethereal Sect Leader raised his right hand and pointed slightly at the sky.
Wang Baole's eyes narrowed instantly. When he looked up, he saw the soul-stirring ancient greenish-bronze sword piercing through the midday sun in the sky outside!
Combined with the Grand Supreme Elder's words, Wang Baole already had a clearer judgment in his heart. That was … the Federation's Hundred Seedlings Plan was about to officially begin. Following that, the plan to enter the ancient greenish-bronze sword would also be fully launched!
Obviously, just obtaining the sword hilt fragment was enough to allow the Federation to form a cultivation civilization. The resources and cultivation techniques on the ancient greenish-bronze sword were an indescribable opportunity for any cultivator of the Federation!
"Take the Thunder Dao: Second Volume first. If possible … I still hope that you can cultivate a cultivation technique that truly belongs to a prodigy. That way, you won't lag behind the younger generations of the countless civilizations in the universe!" The Ethereal Sect Leader spoke earnestly and looked at Wang Baole with anticipation. There were some things that he didn't say to Wang Baole, and neither did the Grand Supreme Elder. However, the entire Ethereal Dao College had already reached a consensus.
That was, Wang Baole would be the true hope of Ethereal Dao College's rise. He would be one of the future pillars of Ethereal Dao College after Li Xingwen.
Although he didn't know the consensus of the upper echelons of Ethereal Dao College, Wang Baole, who had returned this time, already had some guesses and experiences. Therefore, after pondering for a while, he put away the Thunder Dao: Second Volume and bade farewell to the Sect Leader. Just as he was about to leave, the Sect Leader spoke in a seemingly casual tone.
"Baole, I'm not sure if the Grand Supreme Elder has told you not to return to Mars in the near future. Stay in the sect … because the old man is about to break through!
"As the first person on Earth to break through the Core Formation realm and step into the Yuanying realm, when the old man breaks through, people from all the factions will come to observe the ceremony. At the same time, according to the old man's judgment, at the moment of his breakthrough, an astonishing amount of Spirit Qi will be attracted. For all the disciples, it's an opportunity.
"Especially for us Core Formation realm cultivators, it's an opportunity for us to learn from and gain enlightenment!"
When Wang Baole heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He wasn't surprised by the Grand Supreme Elder's breakthrough in cultivation. He had already seen some clues himself. However, when the Ethereal Sect Leader said that he was the first person to break through the Core Formation realm and step into the Yuanying realm, he was a little surprised.
"The first?" Wang Baole immediately asked. He clearly remembered that after the Mercury catastrophe, even though he had been in seclusion, he had still paid attention to the announcement made by the Federation President. He had also heard about the Yuanying elder who was searching for extraterrestrial cultivators in the cosmos.
"That's right. The first … Earthling!" The Ethereal Sect Leader looked meaningfully at Wang Baole. As if he was on Earth, he had his own misgivings and didn't say much.
However, his hint was almost explicit. If Wang Baole still couldn't understand it, he wouldn't have been able to become a Secondary Rank Two Noble in such a short time. Almost instantly, a glint flashed across his eyes. He had an answer in his heart that didn't seem so shocking.
"That Yuanying might have come from … the ancient greenish-bronze sword!" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. After pondering in his heart, he cupped his fists and bowed to the Ethereal Sect Leader. Then, he turned and left.
After leaving the main pavilion, Wang Baole walked in the Dao Courtyard with a smile on his face. He greeted his junior brothers and sisters as he passed by. If it were any other time, he might have teased them a little. However, there was something on his mind right now. After all, even though he didn't know much about the situation after his return this time, he could still see many clues.
"That Yuanying cultivator from the ancient greenish-bronze sword might not have malicious intentions. Otherwise, with the Federation's strength, it would be difficult to resist him …"
"However, this matter is also very interesting. After the Federation proposed the Hundred Seedlings Initiative, there has been no news about it. Only now, Master Zhao Pinfang has made a breakthrough in the development of the Anti-Spirit Bomb. Moreover, the Grand Supreme Elder is about to make a breakthrough in his cultivation …"
"At this time, they have the idea of initiating the Federation's Hundred Seedlings Initiative …" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. If he were to think about this matter normally, he would have some clues. However, the distribution of the clues was difficult to make clear. However, if he were to look at it together with the high officials' autobiographies, then in an instant … everything would become much clearer.
Just as Wang Baole was thinking about this, an excited roar suddenly sounded from afar. There was also an "oh" that spread in all directions, interrupting Wang Baole's thoughts.
Hearing this familiar roar, Wang Baole looked up and immediately saw a huge winged Diamond Ape flying out of the clouds in the sky and charging toward him.
"Little Gold!" Wang Baole laughed heartily. He was very happy. With a shake of his body, he stepped into the air and flew toward the Diamond Ape.
