The Federation's official announcement shook the entire world. After all, too many things had happened in the past year. First, it was the calamity of Mercury. Then, it was Yuanying. Then, there was the announcement of the Anti-Spirit Bomb. Then, it was Li Xingwen's and Duan Muque's advancements. The Federation's Hundred Seedlings Initiative was launched, and the ancient greenish-bronze sword was launched!
So many things had happened in the past year. Even the slowest person could vaguely sense that a storm was brewing. At the same time, they could see some clues from the series of events.
However, very few people were clear about the specifics. Only a small group of people knew the truth.
Wang Baole was among this small group of people. At that moment, after he received the Federation's announcement, he was unperturbed. He only knew that there was not much time left for him to prepare.
"Only half a month!" Wang Baole, who was meditating in the secret chamber, had a calm expression on his face. He lowered his head and looked at the fruits of his labor over the past two months. In front of him were many Dharma treasures. Each one of them exuded an astonishing aura. At the same time, if someone was beside him, they would definitely be shocked to see these Dharma treasures.
That was because these Dharma treasures were all Dharma Armaments!
That was especially so for three of them. Although the aura they exuded was not that of a Dharmic Armament, they did not seem to be inferior to a Dharmic Armament. They were three flying swords of different colors, a ribbon that resembled the Heavenly Silk, and three scales!
They were … the Dharma treasures from the three extraterrestrial cultivators!
Among them, the ribbon and scales were comparable to eighth-grade Dharma Armaments. As for the three-colored flying sword from the extraterrestrial leader … Wang Baole judged that when these three swords were combined, their power would not be comparable to that of a true ninth-grade Dharma Armament, but it would still surpass that of an eighth-grade quasi-ninth-grade Dharma Armament!
Other than that, there was also a megaphone in front of Wang Baole. Although it was still a seventh-grade Dharmic Armament, after Wang Baole's repair and forging, it had become one of the best among seventh-grade Dharmic Armaments. While it was overflowing with light, there were also dark patterns that moved about in an extremely agile manner. It looked extremely shocking, like a supreme treasure.
In addition, there was also a rope and a large seal. These were items that Wang Baole had chosen from his previous Dharma treasures to upgrade to a Dharma Armament after much deliberation.
The rope was the item that, when thrown, would fly up into the sky and disappear. As for the seal, it was the item that had a unique personality. Once it was used, it would disappear in an instant. Only when the opponent was in a weakened state would it suddenly appear and disappear.
Although these two Dharma treasures were somewhat unreliable, Wang Baole felt that they had great potential. Especially since he could not figure them out, it would be even more impossible for the enemy to figure out and predict them.
"Perhaps at times, these two unreliable Dharma treasures will have miraculous effects …" Wang Baole sighed. In fact, if he had a choice, he would not want to upgrade these two unreliable Dharma treasures. It was just that … among the Dharma treasures he had previously, he had discovered that most of them were very difficult to upgrade to Dharma Armaments. Only these two unreliable Dharma treasures could be successfully upgraded.
Thankfully, after these two Dharma treasures were upgraded to Dharma Armaments, they gained some remarkable abilities. For example, the rope could not only bind one's physical body, it could also isolate one's cultivation, causing the person's cultivation to disappear and become a mortal.
As for the seal, it was even more tricky. After studying it, Wang Baole discovered that the seal contained a sliver of law that he could not understand. It seemed like once one was struck by it, the resulting injury would be extremely difficult to recover from.
After looking at the rope and the seal, Wang Baole sighed. In fact, what he wanted to upgrade the most was his intrinsic scabbard. However, the resources required to upgrade the scabbard were too great. Even though Wang Baole had obtained quite a bit of resources from Kim Do-myung, it was still not enough. At present, he had only completed about thirty percent of it.
To reach a hundred percent completion and upgrade the scabbard to a Dharma Armament, Wang Baole estimated that the resources he needed would be very difficult to gather on Mars.
"Then I'll go to the ancient greenish-bronze sword to look for resources!" Wang Baole calculated the time and revealed a look of determination.
"There's still half a month … Then let's see if I can research an eighth-grade Dharma Armament in the last half a month!" At the thought of this, Wang Baole immediately went into seclusion again. On one hand, he used his mental state to go out and capture remnant thoughts. On the other hand, he started experimenting with eighth-grade Dharma Armaments.
Just like that, the days passed. Soon, there were only three days left before the Federation Seedlings would head to Mercury!
Three days to travel from Mars to Mercury. This was the fastest speed that the Federation cruisers could achieve. Therefore, Wang Baole had no choice but to end his seclusion. However, he was still very satisfied with the results of the past half a month.
He also knew that it was too difficult to refine a genuine eighth-grade Dharma treasure in half a month. It was close to impossible. Therefore, in this half a month, his goal was not to refine a genuine eighth-grade Dharma treasure. Instead, he placed his focus on single-use eighth-grade Dharma Armaments.
While the difficulty of single-use Dharma Armaments was greatly reduced, the greatest difficulty was the remnant thoughts of the deity. After all, for other Dharma Armament cultivators, obtaining the remnant thoughts of the deity was all down to luck. However, for Wang Baole, this was too easy. At present, he had captured more than half of the remnant thoughts on Mars.
With this, he could complete his research on single-use Dharma Armaments and create some unique treasures. For example, a three-meter-tall bell!
This bell was extremely sturdy. Although it could only be used once, once it was released, the defensive power it emitted was enough to shock and drive the enemy crazy. When used in reverse, it could even isolate Spirit Qi.
There was also a type of Dharma treasure that looked like a crystal. Originally, Wang Baole had intended to create a self-exploding crystal similar to the self-exploding flying swords. However, the difficulty was high, and he had failed after many attempts. However, even if he had failed, due to the deity's remnant thoughts within, it still possessed some power.
However, it was impossible for it to self-explode. Once this treasure was released, the crystal would instantly liquefy and turn into an extremely strong glue. Although Wang Baole had not tried it before, based on his judgment, the glue's adhesive strength was extremely shocking!
These were only a portion of it. Other than that, there were some other gadgets. However, it was a pity that these were all single-use items. To a certain extent, although they could be used to scare people, their actual effectiveness depended on how they were used.
"Forget it, I'll leave it at that …" Wang Baole was both satisfied and dissatisfied. After putting away these Dharma Armaments, he went on a mental journey one last time before leaving seclusion. Using his Dark Core and Dark Art, he swept across Mars. When he saw a deity, he immediately used his Dark Fire to capture it.
After sweeping through a large area, Wang Baole felt a little regretful. One had to know that in the past three months, he had gone on mental journeys many times, hoping to encounter the supreme deity's remnant thoughts that he had seen on Mars, which was like the sun.
However, this remnant thought seemed to have sensed the danger and actually went into hiding. Wang Baole's time was limited. He had searched for it many times but did not find it. Now that he was about to leave, he still did not encounter it. Therefore, he snorted.
"Forget it, consider yourself unlucky. You can't become my Dharma Armament deity's deity. This is your loss." Wang Baole shook his head. With a large number of deity's remnant thoughts, he ended his mental journey and walked out of seclusion.
Wang Baole did not stay in the special region for too long. He immediately gathered Kim Do-myung and the others and explained the situation. After leaving some instructions, although he was a little reluctant, he still cupped his fists and bowed to everyone.
"I'll leave the special region to you all!" After Wang Baole finished speaking, his gaze swept across everyone. The only regret was that Li Waner was still in seclusion. Therefore, Wang Baole could not bid farewell to her. However, he was no longer the young and immature person he had been when he left Earth and came to Mars. Although his heart was filled with emotions, as a cultivator of the Spirit Inception Era, parting was inevitable.
Therefore, he quickly adjusted his emotions. He took a deep breath, straightened his body, and stepped onto the cruiser that was heading to Mercury.
Kongdao left with him. As for Kim Do-myung, Lin Tianhao, and the others, they were not part of the first batch of Federation Seedlings. Therefore, they could not participate in this plan. At that moment, they could only watch as Wang Baole and Kongdao's cruiser passed through the sky and gradually disappeared.
Under this gaze, they were filled with emotions. They did not know when the next time they would see Wang Baole would be.
In particular, Lin Tianhao and Liu Daobin were filled with emotions. Fortunately, Wang Baole's mark had been deeply ingrained in the special region. Furthermore, it had the support of the rise of Ethereal Dao College. Therefore, even if Wang Baole left, as long as it was not too long ago, everything would be fine.
Just like that, the cruiser that Wang Baole and Kongdao were in charged out of the pull of Mars. In the vast starry sky, it headed straight for … Mercury!
