In the 48th year of the Spirit Inception Era, the war between the Dao Palace and the Federation began.
Five months later, the war ended. The Dao Palace cultivators, led by Annihilator, chose to surrender.
Although the war didn't last long, it was extremely intense and tragic. The end of the war was shrouded in mystery in the eyes of almost everyone.
No one was able to witness the crucial battle. Therefore, while it was unpredictable, it also added to the rumors about the war's ending.
As the rumors spread, the post-war reorganization and rebuilding of the Federation began in earnest. The first to be dealt with were the Dao Palace cultivators who surrendered. About thirty percent of the surviving cultivators were deemed guilty. Under Duan Muque's domineering stance, he ordered them to be executed in a live broadcast across the entire Federation!
Although the order was cruel, the citizens of the Federation needed such morale. They couldn't let the invaders of the Federation surrender without suffering any losses. Therefore, Duan Muque was willing to bear the consequences even if they had to be executed!
At the same time, almost all of the upper echelons of the Dao Palace were implanted with the Spirit Science restriction that Zhao Pinfang had researched. Their existence was no longer a threat to the Federation, but they were also sentenced to five hundred years in prison!
After five hundred years, when their sentences were up, the Federation would release them from the restrictions. As for Annihilator, due to his special status and circumstances, he chose to swear a Dao oath when the Federation hesitated. He would return to the Dao Palace and protect it for the rest of his life. He wouldn't step out of the Dao Palace unless summoned by the Federation.
At the same time, as compensation for the war, the Dao Palace would open up all resources, manuals, and cultivation techniques to the Federation. At the same time, they would give the Federation unilateral access to the ancient greenish-bronze sword. Of course, under Feng Qiuran's insistence, the ancient sword would become a restricted area. Federation cultivators wouldn't be able to enter and disturb Laozu's slumber.
After that … before the war, Wang Baole had submitted a proposal regarding the formation of the Federation. Duan Muque took it seriously and summoned the upper echelons of the Federation, as well as Feng Qiuran and the others, for a discussion. The final result was that both sides agreed to the matter after some minor adjustments.
Therefore, in the 49th year of the Spirit Inception Era, the Solar System Alliance was established. The era name was changed to the first year of the Solar Era!
In the Solar System Alliance, there were currently two members. One was the Federation Civilization, and the other was the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. According to the rules, the Federation Civilization was the only one that had the right to be in the first echelon of the alliance. They had the right to modify, appoint, and remove members. The Vast Expanse Dao Palace was the second echelon.
These rules were obviously advantageous to the Federation. In the past, the Dao Palace definitely wouldn't have agreed to it. Even if Feng Qiuran had the intention to integrate with the Federation, the Dao Palace would still be the leader in the end. However, after the war and the strength that the Federation had displayed in this battle, the Dao Palace, as well as Feng Qiuran and the others, had no choice but to take it seriously. Most importantly … Wang Baole!
Wang Baole's strength and the mysterious battle that even they couldn't detect made Feng Qiuran agree to the alliance's agreement.
Hence, the honeymoon period between the Dao Palace and the Federation began after the formation of the alliance. Both sides had more frequent contact and exchanges than ever before. For the Federation, the Dao Palace's knowledge and various cultivation methods had a great impact on them. This allowed the Federation's Spirit Science to improve rapidly in a short period of time.
It wasn't as if the Dao Palace didn't reap any benefits either. The Federation's management and daily necessities, as well as initiatives like the Spirit Internet, allowed the Dao Palace cultivators to benefit greatly. Especially with the open immigration policy of both sides, many Dao Palace and Earth cultivators chose to migrate.
At the same time, the Federation's reconstruction was underway. With the Dao Palace's cooperation, not only was Mars successfully rebuilt, but Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune were also developed on a deeper level. They became one of the Federation's bases. To a certain extent, they were also considered free cities of the Federation.
As for Jupiter … the Dao Palace didn't mention it after some hesitation. The Federation, on the other hand, immediately turned Jupiter and the asteroid belt into a restricted area!
Although most people didn't understand the strategic significance of this area, Li Xingwen, Duan Muque, and the other higher-ups had already understood after consulting Wang Baole's opinion. Hence, they were prepared to build a territory in that area that belonged exclusively to Wang Baole.
The entire Federation was full of vitality. As both sides merged, their civilization continued to improve. Wang Baole had long been recognized by the people of the Federation. Not only had he become a hero, but the people, the higher-ups of the Federation, and the Dao Palace all knew that he would be the next president of the Federation. At the same time, he would also hold the highest position in the Solar System Alliance!
However, as both sides had just merged, there was still a lot of work to be done. Reconstruction, rules, the distribution of benefits, and too many other trivial matters had to be dealt with. Hence, this matter would only be carried out after a period of time. Most importantly, Duan Muque didn't want Wang Baole to take over such a situation as soon as he took office. He wanted to remove all the bad guys. For example, he wanted to reorganize the various factions within the Federation and cut down the malignant tumors that had accumulated. After the war, he wanted to consolidate all the power and give Wang Baole a brand-new Federation without any burdens!
Although Wang Baole couldn't wait for this to happen, he could understand Duan Muque's good intentions. Hence, after waking up from his battle with the Leisurely Taoist, he returned to Earth and accompanied his parents in the Martian City. While enjoying the life of an ordinary person, he also buried the knot that had arisen from the battle with the Leisurely Taoist in the bottom of his heart. He didn't want to touch it, and he didn't want to.
He told himself that he had to be happy. Hence, in his constant self-talk, he seemed to have forgotten about that knot. He began to happily wait for the announcement that he had become the Federation President.
Life also became peaceful as Wang Baole returned to his parents' side. Apart from accompanying his parents, Wang Baole's favorite thing to do was to sneak out with the donkey. He would listen to the discussions and the expressions of the people around him.
During this period, he also pretended to be weak. Every time he was bullied, he would turn around and see the shocked expressions of the people around him. This made him feel extremely comfortable. However, after doing this too many times, the donkey started to feel annoyed. Wang Baole also felt a little bored. Hence, after thinking about it, he would unintentionally lament in front of his mother that he was still single. Hence, very quickly, his mother began to arrange for blind dates.
Although she knew that her precious son was now very impressive, as a mother, no matter what Wang Baole's status was, he was still a child in her eyes. Hence, under her selection, one blind date after another was arranged. After Wang Baole experienced it with the donkey, he found joy again.
However, with the arrival of Little Bunny, Wang Baole could only regretfully end the blind dates. However, Wang Baole was still very happy to interact with Little Bunny. This was especially so after they went through the academic development of their bodies. This kind of interaction made Wang Baole even more happy.
However, the good times didn't last long … When Li Waner also appeared in front of Wang Baole, this happiness turned into fear. Hence, while Wang Baole was having a headache, time slowly passed. Very soon, three months had passed. Regardless of whether it was the Federation or the reconstruction work, both were coming to an end. At the same time, the Federation was also being reorganized under Duan Muque's vigorous efforts. Everything seemed to be about to start a new chapter. Wang Baole was also looking forward to it …
Zhao Yameng, Liu Daobin, Li Wuchen, Kim Do-myung, Lin Tianhao, Kongdao, and all the other people who were familiar with Wang Baole came to him one after another to bid farewell to Wang Baole.
They didn't mention the specific reason. They only told Wang Baole that they were going to carry out a secret mission. The duration of the mission might be short, or it might be long.
Zhao Yameng wasn't part of the original plan. As the daughter of the Martian Colony Governor and Zhao Pinfang, her future in the Federation and even in the Alliance was bound to be eye-catching. However, for some unknown reason, Zhao Yameng had volunteered to participate. When she bid farewell to Wang Baole, her tone was cold. In the end, before she left, she gave him a fierce glare.
That glare was very unfriendly. Wang Baole felt a little guilty. Hence, he hurriedly used his authority to check everyone's mission. With Wang Baole's authority, it could be said that there was basically nothing in the Federation that he couldn't know.
After checking, Wang Baole's expression turned solemn. Their mission was classified as top secret. Only four people in the Federation had the authority to look at it!
They were Li Xingwen, Duan Muque, Zhao Pinfang, and Wang Baole!
Furthermore, this mission was the follow-up to the Hundred Seedlings Plan and the Dao Palace plan. It had been decided many years ago. It had a codename … Dark Swallow!
