The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1061

After his previous words, Minos quickly used the Spatial Kingdom ring and teleported to a place near the lake house, where at the moment, soldiers from the Elite Squad were.

As she felt the space in her surroundings change, Ruth looked in astonishment from one side of that place to the other, seeing that place full of trees, totally different from the room from before.

"This..." She tried to say something as Minos and Abby watched her in silence.

"What is this? That energy?" Ruth's eyes opened wider as she finally realized the greatest density of spiritual energy she had ever felt in her entire life.

Not even the highest level cultivation room she had known in the Flaming Empire came close to this place!

Hell, that cultivation room was located in one of the blessed regions regarding the spiritual energy in the empire and even had a high-level grade-3 array that enhanced the spiritual concentration there. But even so, such a place still easily beat that one.

But soon, she noticed a large amount of Saint-grade medicines in the surrounding area, something difficult to find in even the largest organizations in the Flaming Empire.

As the level of the medicine increased, more time was needed for it to mature. But, on the other hand, since medicines of this level were demanded by a 'relatively small' group in that empire, there were not many plantations of them.

Thus, amidst so many high-level energy forms, Ruth could not help but open her mouth in shock and surprise. "This..."

"This place is the legendary Spatial Kingdom?" She looked at Minos, concluding the only possibility to explain such a sanctuary.

"That's right..." Minos laughed, watching Ruth behave like a child who had just met the playground of her dreams.

"My goodness, Minos... Now I understand everything! It's not for nothing that you are so monstrous at cultivation!" She muttered in a low voice, feeling the injustice of having gone ten years without having the chance to cultivate there with Abby and him.

'Sigh!'

'There's nothing to do. If he had revealed this to me before I ended my relations in the empire, this secret could bring dangers to him!'

'Good thing he didn't blindly trust me, or he could have been hurt because of my former obligations!' She sighed internally, glad that this moment had happened in the best possible way.

Minos' grandfather's family controlled the Gray Clouds Sect, but that did not mean that everyone in that organization would act in the interest of the King of the Black Plain.

So, suppose in the interrogations of that organization, something that happened when any members returned after months away, she had such information. In that case, a lot of trouble could have happened. That was because that sect had methods of making its disciples speak the truth when interrogated. But, on the other hand, news from Spatial Kingdoms would be enough to draw the attention of even the emperor.

Consequently, the risk would have been too significant if Minos had told her about such a place earlier!

After a while, she asked. "How?"

"Well..." Minos then summarized the most important aspects of how he had obtained this sanctuary. But he excluded the concern that Henricus Longus had left behind because it would serve no purpose to frighten his women.

Other than that, he talked about the Silver and Golden-grade techniques he had inherited, the grade-3 and grade-4 artifacts, and the Divine-grade medicines there.

"... Well, when we reach the proper level, we will use some of these medicines to raise the grade of our Physiques. But don't worry, there are enough for us and some army members to reach the cultivation peak in the future."

"Divine-grade medicines..." Her eyes had an uncertain appearance at the moment. "How, your Physique isn't of King-grade rank? How are we going to do that?"

"That's right. Currently, my Physique is only King-grade one. But fortunately, my Physique is a mutant that can continue to evolve along with my cultivation." He smiled at her, bringing her closer into his embrace. "When you met me back there, my Physique was only a Common-grade one."

"I have traveled all the way to the King-grade rank, and when I reach level 70, it will evolve again, this time to Saint-grade."

"That... That's amazing!" She hugged him tightly, feeling immense happiness in her heart.

Having a high-grade Physique was a testament to power. That was because every time an innate ability evolved, it was refined into something more powerful. But, most importantly, only after reaching the Saint-grade would a Physique awaken its full capabilities!

So, knowing that Minos had this possibility, Ruth felt happy for him!

And with that, tears trickled down her eyes, with her feeling grateful for finally entering fully into her man's life.

"Minos..."

"Shh!"

"You don't have to say anything, Ruth. Let me show this place to you..."

He and Abby then began to show Ruth around, explaining to her about the Elite Squad soldiers and Virtus, the only spiritual beast that was around at the moment.

As for Kyla, after arriving in Dry City earlier, Minos had sent that Nine-tailed Fox to the Beast Park, where her mother, Emlyn, was.

Kyla had reached level 49 these past few months. But, on the other hand, upon seeing Emlyn, Minos had noticed that that great being was already at level 58!

Seeing Emlyn earlier, Minos had gained a doubt in his heart as to who would become the first Spiritual Emperor of his forces. Currently, Virtus, Regina, the supreme elder Miller, Patriarch Nash, and Patriarch Hayes were already at level 59. But with that fox's talent and age, he knew she could catch up and surpass them.

There were also other cultivators at level 58 in his forces. Still, none of them could compare to Emlyn regarding cultivation speed.

As such, he was curious about who would become his forces' first Spiritual Emperor!

In any case, these thoughts were in Minos' subconscious as he only had eyes for his two women as he introduced that place to Ruth.

"At last, Ruth, this is our home. Only the three of us here, Dillian and some special army members, have access to it."

The rest of his army members usually brought camp tents to the Spatial Kingdom since there was not enough room in that house for so many people. But, on the other hand, that was the home of the local leadership, so there was no place for ordinary subordinates to sleep under the same roof as the sovereign.

Hence, despite the dozens of people outside that house, there was plenty of privacy for them there.

Abby laughed as she saw the look on Ruth's face and said. "Don't worry. During our honeymoon, we will send everyone outside."

"Hmm? That's not what I was thinking..."

"Oh? Then what?" Abby teased Ruth.

"Tsk!"

"How annoying you are!"

Then the three of them laughed as they headed toward the main bedroom of that luxurious house.

...

While the trio was playing intensely in the Spatial Kingdom, a group of three people from the Flaming Empire landed in the vicinity of Dry City.

At that construction site, their leader looked at the surroundings with interest, surprised to see such a large construction field in this place. 'It looks like that Minos truly has power!'

'I didn't think he would get so many people to work in his territory in such a short time since the war ended...'

'Are they all slaves?'

But such a person did not have much more time to consider this when a group of 40 Spiritual Kings approached them already with weapons in their hands.

"Identify yourselves and state your purpose here, or we will attack you!" The voice of a level 58 Spiritual King sounded among those members of the local forces, demonstrating that person's great hostility towards visitors from outside the region.

Realizing that situation, the three people looked at each other, discovering that there was not much fear in those individuals, even considering that two of them were Spiritual Emperors.

"It seems that the Black Plain's victory in the war wasn't unfair..."

"Those people are courageous!"
