Chapter 493: It Begins!

At the same time, there were also other cruisers traveling at high speed within the Solar System, their destination being Mercury as well!

Those cruisers carried the elites from the various factions of the Federation who were from the batch of Federation Seedlings back then. Of them, the one with the lowest cultivation level was already at Foundation Establishment realm. Disregarding Wang Baole, the one with the highest cultivation level was at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm.

Wang Baole was the exception, with his cultivation reaching the Core Formation realm!

It could be said that Wang Baole was in the lead amongst this batch of Federation Seedlings, both in terms of cultivation and Noble. In the memories of the other Federation Seedlings, from when they were in the capital city back then earning the title of Federation Seedling, it was surprising, but not shocking that Wang Baole—who had annoyed almost everyone and behaved in an utterly despicable manner—achieved what he had today.

Therefore, despite their unwillingness, they had to recognize how powerful Wang Baole truly was. That was especially so for Li Yi, who felt upset about it as she made a vow in her heart to surpass Wang Baole on the ancient greenish-bronze sword.

Three days later, with the arrival of the Federation Seedlings, Wang Baole and Kong Dao’s cruiser also landed on Mercury. They looked at the vast, barren land, and the majestic array formation in the distance.

That array formation was over a million feet wide and was like a crystal mounted on the ground. There were also hundreds of large pillars densely erected within the array formation. Large amounts of runes were carved on each pillar, and waves of suppressive force emerged from within the array formation, spreading throughout Mercury.

At the same time, the prototype of the construction on Mercury had been formed. Surrounding the array formation were different structures that seemed to be special. They seem not to be meant for housing people, but instead were more like another form of array formation!

When Wang Baole stepped out of the cruiser and looked at the ground, he could still vaguely feel that there was some movement beneath the ground…

When they noticed the surrounding structures, Wang Baole and Kong Dao looked at each other, and then Kong Dao began to speak softly.

“There are signs from the military surrounding this place. At the same time, the structures outside the teleportation array formation seem familiar. They should be the array formation created by the military…”

Wang Baole appeared to be thinking of something. He lowered his head to look at the ground and spoke softly.

“I went to the Anti-Spirit Bomb research facility once. The movement underground here is similar to there. If I’m not wrong, it’s a new Anti-Spirit Bomb research facility underground. Perhaps it might be inappropriate to call it a research facility… There should be numerous Anti-Spirit Bombs buried underneath instead!”

As Wang Baole spoke, Kong Dao took a deep breath. They both recognized that this was the result of the Federation’s cautiousness and preparation. They were prepared to prevent possible disasters that would arise from the bi-directional teleportation that would take place after the array formation was activated.

If something went wrong, the entire teleportation array formation would explode and be destroyed!

In addition, what they saw was perhaps only part of everything. The Federation likely made other preparations. Should anything sinister happen on the ancient greenish-bronze sword, it was very possible that Mercury would be turned to dust.

After all, with the loss of its Stellar Source, Mercury’s value had already been greatly diminished!

That put Wang Baole in a solemn mood, and Kong Dao felt similarly as well. After leaving the cruiser, both of them were quickly led by the staff working there to their residence. They were also told that there were others who had yet to arrive. The time until the teleportation array formation was opened was set for dawn two days later!

To the Federation Seedlings who had arrived, as long as they didn’t leave the area within the next day, they were still somewhat free to roam. After all, their capabilities and status were unusual. In addition, this project was extremely dangerous, and the Federation didn’t impose strict restrictions on them.

Therefore, after arriving, the first thing Wang Baole did was find Zhuo Yifan, Zhao Yameng, and Kong Dao. The two had arrived earlier than Wang Baole, and the moment the four of them met, Wang Baole gave Zhuo Yifan a tight hug, patting his back forcefully. His eyes lit up when he saw Zhao Yameng.

Zhao Yameng, who was wearing a tight-fitting suit, looked extremely cool and even more appealing than before. In addition, in terms of looks, Li Wan’er and Zhou Xiaoya still lost to Zhao Yameng. It could be said that Zhao Yameng was the most perfect-looking person that Wang Baole had seen in his life.

Therefore, Wang Baole cleared his throat and opened his arms.

“Long time no see, Yameng. I have missed you!” With that, Wang Baole went forward to give her a bear hug.

Zhao Yameng raised her eyebrows. She didn’t let Wang Baole hug her as she did before. Instead, she took a few steps back and avoided him before looking at Wang Baole while laughing.

Wang Baole was a little shocked that Zhao Yameng didn’t let him hug her. In his memory, this wasn’t the case in the past. He was about to ask what the matter was, but after seeing Zhao Yameng’s facial expressions, Wang Baole had a gut feeling that it might not be the wisest thing to do. Therefore, he thought about it and pulled Kong Dao over from the side.

“As the Chairman of the Adonis Association, I hereby announce a new member of the first batch of the Adonis Association. Please welcome him, everyone!” Wang Baole patted Kong Dao’s shoulders and smiled as he spoke.

Zhuo Yifan knew who Kong Dao was. After all, Kong Dao was the one who saved him on Earth back then. He smiled at him. As for Zhao Yameng, she was still elegant like she was back then, and she nodded her head at Kong Dao as a form of congratulations.

Kong Dao was a little confused about joining the Adonis Association. Despite that, he didn’t reject the offer. In reality, after working with Wang Baole all these years, he had already given in to Wang Baole. The grudges between them were also forgotten.

The four of them spoke to each other, exchanging details regarding their understanding of the Federation Seedlings Initiative. Soon, night came, and they all decided to stay in Zhuo Yifan’s room to meditate.

While meditating, Wang Baole thought about the change in Zhao Yameng’s attitude. He came up with several theories but wasn’t sure which one was the case. Eventually, he sighed and abandoned the thought altogether.

In this way, an uneventful night came and went. The dawn of the second day arrived, and as Duan Muque’s voice reverberated between the heavens and earth, everyone emerged from their respective residences and gathered beside the teleportation array formation!

Other than the countless staff, there were also three people whose auras were extremely strong. Their auras spread in all directions and were extremely significant!

Of the trio, there were two whom Wang Baole was familiar with. They were the Federation President Duan Muque and the Grand Supreme Elder, Li Xingwen!

The third person was an elder wearing an ancient Daoist robe. He was Mo Gaozi, who had come from the ancient greenish-bronze sword!

With the trio standing there, the collective auras were so strong that it made Wang Baole and company breathe rapidly. At the same time, Wang Baole sensed that there were strong Core Formation realm auras all around him. It appeared that many Federation elites had been gathered here, in order to prevent any accidents from happening once the teleportation array formation was opened.

In this solemn setting, no one had the mood to size up the people around them. Everyone remained silent the moment they arrived.

“Step onto the pillar of the teleportation array formation!” Amidst everyone’s silence, Duan Muque spoke suddenly, his voice like thunder spreading loudly in all directions. Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, being the first to charge out and stand on the pillar of the teleportation array formation.

After him, the other Federation Seedlings also nervously leaped up. When they landed, they had the opportunity to look at their other companions. They knew each other, as they had interacted with each other back then.

After all of them had managed to stabilize their footing, a glow flashed across Duan Muque’s eyes, sweeping across the masses. His gaze stopped momentarily on Wang Baole before his authoritative voice was heard once again.

“I would think that all of you have come to know about the relevant information through various means. I won’t repeat it. Now, I will tell all of you about the things that the Federation understands about the Ancient Sword Civilization. All of you are to listen closely, as it has implications on your lives there!” With that, Duan Muque greeted Mo Gaozi, who was beside him, with cupped fists. Mo Gaozi smiled and nodded, signaling that Duan Muque was allowed to reveal the information.

“There are three segments of the ancient greenish-bronze sword. The first segment is the region near the sword handle, which was the most damaged. Most of the fragments in the Solar System originated from that region!

“The second segment is the sword body that was pierced into the sun. It covers the largest area, and at the same time, having been eroded by the high temperature of the sun, it is the most treacherous!

“As for the third segment… It’s the tip of the sword!

“The tip of the sword, having passed through the sun, appears to be segregated. It is difficult to go near it. In addition, the sword body is within the sun, which also makes it difficult to access. Therefore, the place you would go to this time would be the region near the sword handle!

“Even though that region is heavily damaged, the Ancient Sword is vast, with many habitable regions. Furthermore, in terms of safety, it is the most appropriate place to be!”
