Chapter 494: So Weak?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

As Duan Muque’s words reverberated, everyone, including Wang Baole, listened intently. He knew that getting hold of this information would bring him considerable convenience for his life on the ancient greenish-bronze sword.

Seeing that all the Federation Seedlings were listening attentively, Duan Muque fell silent after introducing the structure of the ancient greenish-bronze sword. He looked at Li Xingwen, who nodded, replacing Duan Muque as he began introducing the sect of the ancient greenish-bronze sword.

“On the ancient greenish-bronze sword, there is a sect whose level of civilization far exceeds that of the Federation. That sect is named… The Vast Expanse Dao Palace!

“There are three Patriarchs in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. Their cultivation levels have far exceeded that of a Nascent Soul realm cultivator, reaching the Soul Conduit realm. At the same time, there are tens of Nascent Soul realm cultivators and numerous other Core Formation realm cultivators!”

As Li Xingwen spoke, Zhuo Yifan, Zhao Yameng, Kong Dao, and the others were shocked. Li Yi and the other Federation Seedlings also widened their eyes, and they felt a torrent of emotions in their hearts. On one hand, the mentioning of the Soul Conduit realm allowed them to know about the realm above that of the Nascent Soul realm. On the other hand, the sheer number of those at the Nascent Soul realm in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace astonished them.

To them, the Vast Expanse Dao Palace was simply too powerful. They could easily squash Earth’s Federation. At the same time, the fact that this was the place they were heading to shocked them deeply.

Only Wang Baole was the exception who didn’t feel that way. He blinked several times and twisted his mouth, bewildered as he felt that not only did the Vast Expanse Dao Palace not sound powerful, but it felt weak instead…

Just three Soul Conduit realm cultivators? It’s still considered a small sect based on that. However, if it’s a small sect, how did it possess the Ancient Sword and even lead the Solar System into the Spirit Inception Era? Wang Baole felt that this entire matter was impossible. He couldn’t wait and secretly sent a voice transmission to Little Missy to ask about it in his mind.

“Little Missy, you’re from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, right? That’s all you’ve got?”

Little Missy, who hadn’t replied since Wang Baole had returned from the Dark Artifact, finally showed some signs of activity. With a confused tone, her voice reverberated in Wang Baole’s mind.

“Something’s not right about this. In my memory, there are other Star Domain realm leaders, as well as numerous cultivators at the Eternal Star realm and Planet realm… In addition, one could only advance to become the core disciple of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace after reaching the Spirit Immortal realm!

“As for the Soul Conduit realm… In my memory, they are merely the most ordinary inner sect disciples…”

Little Missy was somewhat doubtful. After a moment of silence, her voice reverberated in Wang Baole’s mind.

“I can only find out the details by sensing it myself when I go over…”

Listening to Little Missy’s words, Wang Baole was surprised. Previously, he indeed felt that the Vast Expanse Dao Palace was weak. However, right now, after listening to Little Missy, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath. In reality, after entering the Dark Planet, Wang Baole gained a complete understanding of the entire cultivation system. He knew how powerful the leader of the Star Domain realm was.

According to the records of the Dark Sect, elites like them held the power to destroy a galaxy. In addition, the Star Domain realm was vast, encompassing countless planets. From this, it could be seen how scary the Star Domain realm leader was.

Since there existed a leader like that on the ancient greenish-bronze sword, it was needless to say for the numerous other Eternal Star realms and Planet realms. That shocked Wang Baole, and his respect towards the ancient greenish-bronze sword grew.

In Wang Baole’s shock, Li Xingwen’s words were still reverberating as he introduced the masses to the information that the Federation had.

“The location where the Vast Expanse Dao Palace is at is the first region of the sword, and also the part nearest to the sword handle. Based on our understanding, the three Patriarchs of Vast Expanse Dao Palace are Senior Feng Qiuran, Senior Mie Liezi, as well as Senior You Ran. Of them, Senior Feng Qiuran is the one who took the initiative to collaborate with the Federation, to advance together and proceed as one!”

“Senior Mie Liezi, on the other hand, disagreed with it. As for Senior You Ran, he focuses only on Dao and not on matters of mankind.” Li Xingwen was more direct in his words, speaking his mind even though Mo Gaozi was beside him. Furthermore, Mo Gaozi didn’t seem to disagree with what Li Xingwen said.

As his words reverberated, the eyes of the Federation Seedlings glowed. All of them seemed to be deep in thought. When they first arrived, they already knew some things about the situation on the ancient greenish-bronze sword. Right now, complemented by Li Xingwen’s words, they had a clearer interpretation of the entire situation.

That was the case for Wang Baole as well. He immediately realized that Feng Qiuran had a gentle nature. Mo Gaozi, who was beside Duan Muque, was sent by Feng Qiuran. On the other hand, Mie Liezi clearly preferred the idea of devouring and enslaving the Federation.

This means that the teleportation that will happen this time is indeed the first cooperation with the gentle faction… Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and thought about it. At the same time, Duan Muque softly cleared his throat, continuing Li Xingwen’s narrative.

“All of you now know what you should know. As for the specific details, it would require all of you to find out by yourselves after you have entered the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. Put simply, all of you are people sent by the Federation to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace for training. I hope that all of you will have a good future there!”

With that, Duan Muque stopped speaking. His facial expressions grew more solemn, and his voice deepened as it spread in all directions.

“However… Do not forget about your missions. Even though Senior Mo Gaozi is right here, I still have to remind everyone that you all have two missions!”

“First, after entering the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, you must all go according to Senior Feng Qiuran’s arrangements and support him as best as you can… Second, try your best to expose yourselves to as many cultivation techniques as possible, and teleport those cultivation techniques back using this teleportation array formation!” After he had finished speaking, Duan Muque greeted Mo Gaozi, who was beside him, with cupped fists.

Mo Gaozi, who had been expressionless from the start, now laughed, returning the greeting to Duan Muque as a sign of understanding. He didn’t speak, but there were thoughts running through his mind. In reality, he had interacted with the Federation often, and it could be said that most of the cultivation civilization on Earth was driven by him, Mo Gaozi.

In these several tens of years, as he watched the rapid advancement of civilization on Earth and the emergence of Nascent Soul realms like himself, he was surprised. After all, before this, he had arrived on Earth with a mission. He had never thought that in tens of years, the immortal cultivation on Earth would reach the state it was now.

This was a rare occurrence, based on his memories of history. It simply meant that perhaps Earth was a more suitable place for cultivation than the Vast Expanse Tribe!

That was especially so in terms of caliber. After years of research, he found that earthlings, in general, had above average caliber. This alone was scary, and he couldn’t help but ponder about what kind of place the Solar System was years ago, such that it bred this group of people.

This drove him to suggest the collaboration and advancement project to Feng Qiuran with confidence and backing. At the same time, as he was emotionally vested in Earth, he hoped to see that Earth would have a strong foundation. This could also address the Federation’s efforts and concerns.

Duan Muque and Li Xingwen looked at each other after receiving Mo Gaozi’s approval, and they heaved a sigh of relief as their hearts were filled with gratitude. However, personal emotions couldn’t affect the fate of the entire Federation. Therefore, Duan Muque still needed to talk about what was necessary.

“It has only been tens of years since the beginning of the Federation’s immortal cultivation era. The Spirit Qi appears unlimited, but it is actually limited. It is the factor that has the biggest impact on whether we advance. Cultivation techniques are also extremely important. All of you should remember this!

“At the same time, the Federation won’t take your contributions without remuneration. I hereby promise that anyone here that teleports ten cultivation techniques will advance in Noble by one level!”

“In addition, once you have completed this round of further cultivation and return from it, resources will be given in excess according to your contributions!” Duan Muque’s words were decisive. Furthermore, with Li Xingwen and the various factions as witnesses, it showed the Federation’s desire for cultivation techniques.

The Federation Seedlings who were standing on the pillars felt a torrent of emotions as they understood the importance of this matter, and remembered whatever they had been told by heart. At the same time, there were many, such as Li Yi, who were hyperventilating. From their eyes, the look of ambition was evident.

Of them, the one who was most ambitious, and the one who was filled with the most enthusiasm, was no doubt Wang Baole. A wave of thoughts seemed to have arisen in his mind the moment he heard Duan Muque’s words. His eyes widened, and there was only one thought bouncing around his mind, seemingly becoming the crash of thunder.

“Noble Advancement! Noble Advancement!”
