After Minos gave his signal for the start of the fight, he saw his women running towards him at great speed, following the strategy they had learned after years of training together.

This strategy basically divided their roles in a fight, with Abby taking responsibility for defense and Ruth for the attack.

With that, as they ran at him, they both activated their techniques of different natures, prepared to press him as hard as possible from the start.

Instant Steps!

Ruth used her movement technique to get closer to Minos while sending a series of fist strikes.

Fists of Pain!

Seeing this attack from Ruth, Minos moved around that fighting stage, using his defensive technique to counter his wife's fists by simply punching in the direction of her spiritual attacks.

However, just as his fist was about to touch one of the energy fists launched by Ruth, mirrors appeared in his path, dampening his blow.

Crack!

In the blink of an eye, large fissures appeared in the swirling mirrors of Abby's defensive technique until they exploded into infinite pieces.

But that had been enough to take some of the attack power out of Minos' right fist, easing the blow sent by Ruth.

'Not bad!' Minos realized he could not avoid Ruth's spiritual punch and put his left arm in front of his face, ready to bar the impending attack.

Pow!

After that, his right fist could not withstand the full power of her attack, and he was pushed back a few feet, feeling a slight numbness in the affected parts of his body.

Cursed Chains!

Before he could even do anything, Abby used one of her combat techniques specialized in restraint, causing several chains to leave the palm of her right hand.

With that, King Stuart was surrounded by purple chains in the blink of an eye, with several of them trying to bind his wrists and ankles.

Thunder Fists!

Several small blue lightning bolts spread out in Ruth's surroundings, forming an image that made her look like a goddess of war as she threw a punch against the air.

Then a powerful bolt of lightning broke from her fist, rushing towards Minos at a speed he could not react to in time.

Seeing this, he took a defensive position and accepted Ruth's attack while feeling Abby's chains hugging his body like snakes.

"Good combination..." Minos complimented the two after the ray from earlier disappeared, swinging his neck as if he was getting ready to start fighting seriously.

As he did so, he forced his arms and legs against Abby's chains, making them creak for a few moments until they exploded into several pieces.

"Unfortunately, Abby is still at level 59, or those chains could give me some trouble." He casually commented as he ran into her, focusing his mental technique to distract her in that instant of counterattack.

Seeing this, Ruth frowned and promptly began to run to defend Abby, managing to outpace her husband's speed and appear in front of the blue-haired woman.

Minos smiled at Ruth's movement and began to exchange blows against her, pushing her out of his way with well-matched punches and kicks.

Ruth was an expert in hand-to-hand combat, so she did not do so badly by staying in this position. But unfortunately, even though her cultivation was still a bit higher than his, Minos had an innate ability that increased his energy.

Thus, even when using only the Indestructible Body, his blows were still stronger than hers, forcing her back little by little.

Pow!

Ruth tried to punch Minos in the face, but he deftly deflected before grabbing her wrist and throwing her away.

After making this move, Minos ran into the confused Abby, who was surrounded by mirrors, as her chains circled the surroundings at high speed.

He then moved to catch one of those chains, feeling a great force hindering the process but not enough to stop him.

When he finally got a good grip, he pulled on the thing with all his strength, causing the chains to stop circling the area around Abby and shattering the many mirrors there.

"Not so fast!" Ruth floated into the air and hurled another bolt of lightning in Minos' direction, finally wiping out her energy reserves.

Boom!

This time, King Stuart had already seen his wife's blow from afar, as he used only one palm to defend himself while his other hand brought Abby to his side using that chain.

The smoke left Minos' open hand when finally Abby's body stopped with her face only a few millimeters away from his fist.

In that instant, she felt the mental pressure on herself disappear as a spatial force made her float in front of Minos. "You lost." He said to Abby, seeing the sweat dripping down her face.

"Hah... Hah... You can't beat someone you can't even hurt..." Ruth said amidst her erratic breathing.

Minos then caught Abby by her waist, keeping her from falling to the ground due to the exhaustion of her strength. "Hah... He still took it easy on us... At the beginning of the fight... You let us attack so you could push me in the final part, right?" Abby asked as she leaned on him and breathed irregularly.

"Hehe, the worse your situation was when I pressed you, the better the stimulation under your body for your attempted breakthrough later." He said in a low voice as he ran one of his hands over her forehead.

After that, Abby sat in a meditative position, with Minos and Ruth sitting a few feet away from her, resting and waiting for this woman's breakthrough.

Training such as the one they had just finished did not need a direct physical stimulus to generate results. After all, at their level, most of their power came from the soul and not from their bodies.

In this case, working on the soul by constantly activating their combat techniques was the best way to stimulate it to get ready to 'inflate.'

Since in regular training, one could hardly get the surprise factor from battles, just training techniques individually did not generate benefits for cultivation. That was a good thing for improving one's understanding of the Natural Laws involved in their techniques, but not for preparing the soul to be 'inflated' without the risk of an 'explosion.'

Thus, even though Minos barely touched Abby during the fight, he stimulated her from the beginning to the end, especially in the final part of the match.

In this way, as she began to cultivate under the eyes of Minos and Ruth, Abby felt it easier to absorb spiritual energy from the medium-grade crystals in her surroundings. That was not only because of the exhaustion of her powers but also because her soul had gone through all the stress generated by her husband.

With her solid foundation, low age, Saint-grade physique, and presence in a cultivation sanctuary, Abby began to feel like her soul was about to break through its limits.

Crack!

A distinctive sound spread through the area simultaneously as unique energy surged through Abby's body, intensely sucking the spiritual energy in the surroundings into her body.

While this was happening, the Natural Laws in the environment participated in this process, merging with the energy quickly absorbed into her soul.

After a few minutes, Abby's body shook vigorously, and several black spots appeared from her pores while the toxins left her body as an effect of the spiritual cleansing.

As black drops of a gelatinous substance dripped from her body, she unconsciously began to float in the air, still sitting in a lotus position.

Seeing this, several people in the vicinity understood what was happening and began celebrating.

"Your Grace is finally at level 60!"

"Now the Black Plain has a queen at 7th stage!"

"Hehe, the army will get stronger!"

"Ah, I can't wait to get to level 60..."

While the people there were commenting one after the other, Eda was watching Abby with tears in her eyes, happy that this woman had achieved such a significant advancement.

'Congratulations, Abby...' She quietly thought as she saw the queen's eyes open.
