485 The Vast Expanse Dao Palace! (1/2)
While Wang Baole was on his journey back to Mars, the various media outlets of the Federation were still celebrating the breakthrough achieved by the Ethereal Dao College's Grand Supreme Elder, Li Xingwen. Everyone was in a celebratory mood, and laughter filled the entire Federation.
At the same time, few people knew that Duan Muque, the Federation President, chose to enter seclusion on the fourth day after Li Xingwen achieved a breakthrough. At the same time, protective covering was put in place over the entire capital city to prevent accidents from happening. On the other hand, even though Li Xingwen was physically in the Ethereal Dao College, he still paid attention to the capital city. If anything happened, he would go forth and ensure Duan Muque's safety at the first instant.
After all, if Duan Muque could achieve a breakthrough as well, it would mean that the Federation would officially enter the Nascent Soul era. At the same time, what was most important was that if both of them achieved a breakthrough one after another, it would mean that it was possible for others as well.
The others would include people like the Senators, the Martian Colony Governor, the Grand Supreme Elders of the three other great Dao Colleges, the Galactic Dusk Sect, the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect, and even the Five Generation Sky Clan!
In reality, Duan Muque could be considered the second generation. He was considered a senior that had emerged from Armageddon, having experienced major transformations in the heavens and earth, as well as the beast crisis like Li Xingwen. Regardless of their capabilities or mindset, they were considered first generation elites!
Someone like him shouldn't remain in the Core Formation realm!
There were also others who were like Duan Muque and also entered seclusion. They all desired to achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation and enter the Nascent Soul realm!
However, this was an extremely difficult step. Not only did they need time, but they also needed the right opportunity. Even though the cultivation era had begun, allowing any elite to meet with opportunities, the opportunities still differed in scale and impact.
However, matters like these weren't a concern for Wang Baole. Right now, his cruiser had arrived on Mars. He immediately returned to the Martian special regional city, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he vaguely established a connection with the Dark Artifact underground and ensured that nothing had gone wrong.
After that, he felt troubled again. The Dark Artifact was powerful, but it was too severely damaged. If he couldn't repair it and couldn't take it out, it would make Wang Baole feel as if someone had handed him an extremely handsome picture of the slimmed-down version of himself. He could see and sense it, but he simply couldn't lose the weight!
That made Wang Baole sigh continuously. In his absence, nothing major happened in the special regional city. Li Wan'er was still in seclusion, and Lin Tianhao and company all carried out their delegated duties to manage the various areas of the special regional city assigned to them. The others seemed to be excited by Li Xingwen achieving a breakthrough, and seeing that Wang Baole had achieved a breakthrough before their eyes, they also went into seclusion.
It appeared as if all the cultivators in the Federation had become motivated by Li Xingwen's breakthrough, resulting in a cultivation craze!
Therefore, Wang Baole, who had just returned to Mars, decided to cultivate his Dark Art as well. However, just as he was about to begin cultivation in his cave, and just as the Federation was in a celebratory mood with the cultivation craze running high, an announcement was suddenly made!
Mercury was to be rebuilt!
Mercury, having experienced crisis, had been turned into a wasteland. The entire planet had nearly withered, and having been dealt with tremendous amount of damage, all it had was gloom. Riding on the high emotions of everyone, the plan announced by the Federation garnered the support of many.
At the same time, this entire matter was like a signal that made the leaders of the various factions of the Federation shocked. Based on the information that they had access to, the issue of rebuilding Mercury involved a truth that ordinary citizens didn't know about!
”The teleportation array formation of Mercury… its official construction is about to commence.” This was the first thought that surfaced in the minds of all the leaders of the factions the moment they came to know about the Federation's announcement to rebuild Mercury.
In reality, that was the truth. The day after the news was announced, Wang Baole immediately received a voice transmission from the Martian Colony Governor. In the voice transmission, the Martian Colony Governor passed him numerous blueprints, ordering him to produce all the parts listed on the blueprint in a stipulated time.
The resources that were needed to produce those parts would be provided by Mars!
That made Wang Baole surprised. He felt as if a storm was brewing, and after thinking about what the Grand Supreme Elder and Sect Lord had mentioned to him, and complementing it with the announcement to rebuild Mercury made by the Federation, Wang Baole made some guesses. He immediately called the Martian Colony Governor to address his queries.
