Chapter 495: Arrival on the Ancient Greenish-Bronze Sword! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ten cultivation techniques and I can advance a rank. I’m now Secondary Rank Two, and I would only need thirty cultivation techniques to become Primary Rank One! No, it’s forty cultivation techniques. The last ten are to allow me to surpass Primary Rank One to become President!
Forty cultivation techniques!
Wang Baole felt as if he was about to explode. He was boiling hot, and his eyes were about to turn green. The blood in his body was flowing rapidly. The journey to the ancient greenish-bronze sword this time was perhaps the last step to him becoming Federation President!
The feeling of his dream almost becoming a reality almost made Wang Baole laugh heartily out loud. However, he quickly got a hold of himself. There were so many other people around, and if the cultivation techniques they submitted were repeated, how would they be judged? Would they all not be able to advance in rank?
While Wang Baole was thinking about this issue, Duan Muque’s voice was heard again.
“Next, each of you would receive a unique voice transmission jade slip. Other than sending voice transmissions, this jade slip can also be used for recording purposes. At the same time, it was created with the help of Senior Mo Gaozi, and it allows you to access the regional Spirit Internet on the ancient greenish-bronze sword.”
“This Spirit Internet is the best mode of communication for all of you. In addition, for every cultivation technique that you send, you have to record it down on the Spirit Internet. This way, others will not send the same cultivation technique. The Federation will only recognize the first unique cultivation technique sent!” With that, Duan Muque looked towards Li Xingwen.
Li Xingwen remained silent. After confirming that he had nothing to add on, Duan Muque took a deep breath, raising his right hand and waving it.
“Right now, the teleportation will begin. Everyone, I hereby wish you a smooth-sailing journey through the skies and a safe return!”
As Duan Muque’s words reverberated, a loud sound emerged from the teleportation array formation. Every single pillar vibrated, and the surrounding crystals shimmered rapidly. Gradually, the glow from the crystals grew increasingly brilliant, until it became a sea of light, enveloping every single person, as well as the entire area of the ground.
It was also at this time when Duan Muque, Li Xingwen, and Mo Gaozi rose to the skies, sitting with crossed legs in three different directions. They sealed their hands, unleashing their cultivation and officially activating the array formation!
At that moment, all eyes were on them!
At that moment, a new chapter of the Federation’s Spirit Inception Era began!
At that moment, teleportation began!
A huge light ray shot up into the air from Mercury. It shook the planet, and at the same time, it formed a circular wave that spread throughout the planet.
Looking at it from afar, this was an extremely astonishing scene. At the same time, numerous military cruisers could be seen in space beyond Mercury. They appeared to be arranged by the Federation, just in case something awry happened.
At the moment the teleportation began, which was also the time where all the forces arranged by the Federation were in full force, the array formation of the Solar System was maximally boosted.
It was all put in place so that the Federation could destroy the teleportation array formation the moment an accident appeared, in order to prevent any further teleportation from happening!
Wang Baole and the other Federation Seedlings knew about it all. They were clear that the danger of this trip wasn’t just present on the sword. In reality, the most dangerous moment was the moment they were teleported. All the judgments and deductions proved the Vast Expanse Dao Palace’s sincerity in collaborating with the Federation, but human emotions were ultimately the most unpredictable.
Therefore, even after confirming it repeatedly, the Federation still made full-proof preparations. The moment the teleportation occurred, even the numerous Anti-Spirit Bombs under the teleportation array formation were being put on standby. They would immediately be activated with just a word from Duan Muque, Li Xingwen, or anyone.
At the same time, all the cultivators in and outside Mercury were on high alert. Even Li Xingwen and Duan Muque were extremely vigilant. They looked at the light beam that shot into the sky, one of them moving nearer to Mo Gaozi, while the other moved backwards to prepare to act quickly should the need arise.
Thankfully, during the fifteen-minute-long teleportation process, nothing peculiar happened to either Mo Gaozi or the teleportation array formation. In addition, according to the agreement between the Federation and Mo Gaozi, the first teleportation episode would only involve one party. Therefore, as the light beam slowly diminished and was finally extinguished, Li Xingwen and Duan Muque heaved a heavy sigh of relief, having made sure that nothing untoward had happened.
Simultaneously, the array formation of the Solar System ran numerous scans to ensure that all was well. It was only then that the cruisers outside Mercury were no longer on alert. The various elites all heaved a sigh of relief, but in order to prevent any accidents from happening, the Anti-Spirit Bombs beneath Mercury were still on standby. They weren’t to be deactivated, and Li Xingwen would also stay on guard on Mercury.
A new chapter shall now begin for the Federation... After everything had been tuned down from an alert state, Duan Muque and Mo Gaozi took their leave. At that time, Li Xingwen, who was sitting with his legs crossed outside the array formation, raised his head to look at the sun—gazing at the vast sun, as well as the huge ancient greenish-bronze sword on it, a look of anticipation was seen in his eyes.
Little fatty, don’t disappoint me. Come back... safely!
At the same time, Li Wan’er emerged from seclusion. She had achieved a breakthrough from the Foundation Establishment realm and had entered the Core Formation realm. However, she would naturally not be able to meet Wang Baole. All she could do was look in the direction of Mercury, as she stayed silent for a long time.
Liu Daobin and Lin Tianhao, as well as the friends and families of the Federation Seedlings, were all looking at the sun at the same time from different locations. They gazed at the ancient greenish-bronze sword on the sun, eagerly awaiting their return one day, and wishing for their success.
Wang Baole’s parents were also amongst them. Before Wang Baole left for Mercury, he had already notified them that he would make the journey to the ancient greenish-bronze sword. Even though his parents were worried, they also understood that there was nothing they could do about it. Therefore, they could only wish him well, despite their unspoken concerns.
As the friends and family members of Earth’s Federation Seedlings had all their attention on the sun, which was burning at such a high temperature that it seemed to be able to set everything on fire, a loud rumble was produced by the ancient greenish-bronze sword that was pierced into it. It was a rumble that hadn’t been heard in years!
The rumble originated from the region near the sword handle. Looking from a distance, the space around the sword handle was warping under the high temperature, and a light enveloped the ancient greenish-bronze sword. Its interior couldn’t be seen clearly, but the light seemed to be so powerful that it could shield against the sun’s heat, allowing the ancient greenish-bronze sword to continue to exist within it.
If it were possible to go through the light now, one would definitely be able to see that the ancient greenish-bronze sword behind it was like a world of its own. It was extremely vast, and there seemed to be no land on it. Instead, it was an astonishingly vast ocean!
This ocean didn’t contain water, but fire and lava!
Like a fire that could never be extinguished, this place was burning endlessly. On this sea of fire, there were several islands that were mostly pointed, similar to mountain peaks!
Numerous palaces could also be seen on the islands. At the same time, one could see figures of people flying in mid-air, emerging from the various islands, all charging towards the widest island in the center!
Compared to that island, the surrounding islands were like young children. The central island was a mature hunk, standing there, ferocious and extremely eye-catching.
On that large island, in an area where there was a huge public square, was an ancient teleportation array formation. Right now, that teleportation array formation was glowing brilliantly, causing the various figures to gather there from all directions. There were males and females, young and old, all dressed in ancient long robes that looked different from those on Earth. They all carried different facial expressions. Some were curious, some were filled with anticipation, some were scornful, and some were hostile.
All these gazes were focused on the large teleportation array formation on the public square. As the glow from the teleportation array formation reached its maximum before slowly dimming, numerous figures began to emerge from it!
Initially, those figures were still somewhat blurry. However, as the glow from the teleportation array formation slowly diminished, they began to appear clearer. In the end, when the glow from the teleportation array formation had completely dissipated, the figures of the Federation Seedlings could be seen clearly.
They slowly awakened the moment the teleportation process was completed. It felt like a dream to them. The previous moment, they were still in the Federation, but in the next, they had already reached the ancient greenish-bronze sword. At the same time, the side effects of this long-distance teleportation were felt at their maximum immediately. Signs of dizziness, nausea, and malaise all appeared at once.
Instantly, many almost tripped and fell. They all looked at their surroundings with their faces pale and their breathing unsteady. Their hearts throbbed vigorously, and amongst them, only Wang Baole stood without moving. He could completely withstand the side effects of the teleportation process. Therefore, he was the first to awaken amongst the crowd and the first to notice the look of the faces of the people around him.
They should all be the cultivators from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. However, I dislike their gaze! Wang Baole uncontrollably narrowed his eyes as he grew alert of his surroundings. He slowly activated the storage bracelet on his right hand, making preparations to activate his Dharmic Armaments should anything untoward happen.
