492 The Goal: Mercury! (1/2)

The moment the Federation made the announcement, commotion arose amongst everyone. After all, in this short one year, too many events had occurred. First, it was the crisis on Mercury, followed by the Nascent Soul's emergence, the Anti-Spirit Bomb declaration, then Li Xingwen and Duan Muque's advancement, and finally the commencement of the Federation Seedlings Initiative, along with the plan to land on the ancient greenish-bronze sword!

All these events made even those who were dense realize that something big was about to happen. At the same time, it was possible to see some clues from the series of events.

However, not many truly knew about the details. Only a small group of people knew the truth.

Wang Baole belonged to that small group of people. Right now, after receiving the news from the Federation, he didn't feel especially surprised. He simply knew that it meant that there wasn't much time remaining for him to make preparations.

Only half a month! Wang Baole, who was meditating with his legs crossed in the secret chamber, appeared calm. He lowered his head and looked at the results that he had obtained after the past two months. Before him were numerous Dharmic treasures, each giving off an astounding suppressive force, and each of them impressive in their own ways. If there were someone else beside him, they would definitely be shocked by those Dharmic treasures.

That was because all of those Dharmic treasures were Dharmic Armaments!

That was especially so for three of them. The aura given off by them wasn't that of a Dharmic Armament, but even so, it was comparable to that of a Dharmic Armament. These three items were the three different colored flying swords, a ribbon, as well as three scales!

They were Dharmic treasures from the three extraterrestrial cultivators!

The ribbon and scales were similar to eighth-grade Dharmic Armaments. As for the extraterrestrial leader's tri-colored flying sword… Based on Wang Baole's analysis, when the three swords were put together, even though its power may not fit the definition of a true ninth-grade Dharmic Armament, it had definitely exceeded that of an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament and was similar to a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament!

Other than that, there was also a megaphone in front of Wang Baole. The megaphone was still a seventh-grade Dharmic Armament, but as Wang Baole continuously upgraded it, it had become an extremely powerful seventh-grade Dharmic Armament. It glowed brilliantly, with lines of Hidden Marks swirling within it. It looked extremely impressive and was like a treasure.

There was also a rope and a big seal that Wang Baole picked out from amongst the Dharmic treasures to be upgraded to Dharmic Armaments after much thought.

The moment the rope was tossed out, it flew into the sky and disappeared. The big seal had quite a unique characteristic as well. When used, it vanished instantly, only landing insidiously and suddenly when the opponent was weakened.

Even though they were somewhat unreliable, Wang Baole still felt that they had huge potential. That was especially so as even he was unable to understand them, which made it even more difficult for his opponents to predict and grapple with them.

Perhaps when the time comes, these two unreliable Dharmic treasures could have a wondrous effect… Wang Baole sighed. In reality, if he had a choice, he wouldn't have upgraded those two unreliable Dharmic treasures. It was because after trying it out previously, he found out that out of all his Dharmic treasures, only those two unreliable treasures could be successfully upgraded, while the majority of them were extremely difficult to upgrade.

Luckily, after upgrading the two Dharmic treasures to become Dharmic Armaments, they were equipped with more miraculous functions. For example, once someone was tied up by the rope, they weren't only physically restricted, but their cultivation would be made ineffective. The cultivation of the person tied up by the rope would disappear, and he would become an ordinary being.

The big seal was even more cunning in terms of its characteristics. After analyzing it, Wang Baole realized that it worked according to some rules that even he was unable to understand. It seemed like if someone were hit by it, they would be so severely injured that it would be difficult for them to recover.

Looking at the rope and the big seal, Wang Baole sighed. In reality, what he wanted to upgrade most was the scabbard. However, that would require an extremely large amount of resources. Despite Wang Baole obtaining many resources from Jin Duoming, it was still insufficient, and right now, it was only thirty percent completed.

In order for it to be fully completed and to turn the scabbard into a Dharmic Armament, Wang Baole estimated that it would be near impossible to find the necessary resources on Mars.

Then, I shall find those resources on the ancient greenish-bronze sword! Wang Baole calculated the time needed, and a look of determination was seen in his eyes.

There's still half a month left… Let's see if I can use the remaining half a month to create an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament! With that thought, Wang Baole immediately went into seclusion again. On one hand, he entered the fugue state to capture the remnant thoughts, and on the other, he began trying to create an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament.
