The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1769

In the blink of an eye, a whole week had passed...

On this day, while still meditating in the place that Satarclaw and the level 89 old elder of the Longus family had taken him days ago, Minos opened his eyes, feeling his powers returning to normal.

His soul was no longer destabilized as it had been days ago. It seemed as solid as a rock, as dense as the densest of minerals.

His body was no longer injured. Much less pain could be noticed by him.

Unlike those negative sensations of days ago, at the moment, Minos felt as if he was about to explode with so much force that he had achieved in these days of meditation.

Lightning was repeatedly forming in his surroundings while a dark fog spread over his body.

Simultaneously, when he opened his eyes, they shone brightly in rainbow colors, even without Minos trying to use his secondary visual ability.

His muscles were even stronger than before that fateful day, inflated, with beautiful outlines that would make women watch him slowly.

But the feeling of his cultivation was much more impressive than his appearance.

Starclaw could feel it as she watched her master, noting how he looked fiercer than ever.

While absorbing the medicinal effects of Julian's pill, Minos had taken the opportunity to 'rebuild' part of his sacrificed foundation to form the supreme weapon, Divine Sword, by mixing the powers of the pill with the chaotic energy of the giant bones in the Spatial Kingdom.

Because of this, he now felt even more connected to those bones and was absorbing more and more of the powers coming from the Spatial Kingdom.

His cultivation, which he thought would take a whole year to recover, had been recovered in these seven days, and now he felt as if he was a little stronger than on that day of battle.

With that feeling, he clenched his fists and stood up, smiling in a satisfied manner.

'The results were better than I imagined!' He looked in the direction of Starclaw and his staff waiting for him on the outskirts of that cultivation room.

Everyone there realized he had finished his meditation and was stronger than before. Thus, they were soon standing next to him, congratulating him.

"Your Majesty, what now? What will happen?"

Minos looked at Fermo and answered that hybrid's question. "I will accompany the elder Julian. In the meantime, you should travel to the coast where I arrived. Starclaw will show you where my ship is. Wait for me there."

Since Julian had found them in this place, it would not be interesting for them to go to the Spatial Kingdom from this position. It would be much better to do this in the East Sea, where they could ensure no one would notice them.

They all understood the motives behind Minos' speech, and no one there questioned him.

'Will you be all right?' Starclaw asked him as the men of the Longus family left to begin their migration as soon as possible.

Minos looked at her and said in the mind of this beast, 'Yes, don't worry. Worst case scenario, I will escape to the Spatial Kingdom...

Then if I don't reach my yacht within two months, you must lead these people to the Black Plain Empire and join my forces in Dry City.'

She looked at him worriedly but did not question him.

"Good luck. I hope your going to the Pantheon Of Honor will be positive for our forces."

With those words, she left, knowing that Julian was watching them.

And just as Minos finished saying goodbye to his people, the space in his surroundings vibrated, and Julian brought him to his side, dozens of miles above that forest.

Minos looked at this man who seemed to be meditating above the clouds and was silent as he watched him rise.

"I see you have grown stronger... It seems that your talent is truly otherworldly, young Minos." This elder said, looking into the brown eyes of Emperor Stuart, now much more confident of his theories.

There was something special about this boy. His powers were not normal, he cultivated very fast, and his understanding was absurd.

Julian thought that it would take Minos a month to absorb the medicinal effects of that high-level grade-4 pill. But this young man had done it in 25% of the time he had stipulated!

"I guess I got lucky," Minos commented.

"It could be. But it doesn't matter. Luck is part of our paths." After muttering this, he asked. "Ready? Do you still have something more to discuss with these beasts and hybrids of this place?"

"No, I am eager to find out what your proposal is about."

Julian shook his head and then distorted the space around him and Minos, quickly causing the two bodies to disappear from that area near the easternmost border of the Grinia Empire.

Almost instantly, they appeared dozens of miles above a large city in the central part of one of the two neighboring empires of that other state.

Julian pointed in the direction of where a grand temple stood and said. "Young Minos, this is the Pantheon Of Honor, the organization I am a member of.

I don't know what you have heard about us, but please disregard it. Let me reintroduce this place to you from the perspective of someone who has been part of this group for 11,000 years."

Minos nodded, knowing that he could not fully trust Henricus Longus' information since enough time had passed for this organization to change much.

"The Pantheon Of Honor is one of the most renowned organizations in the Spiritual World, where only experts at the 10th stage or higher have the right to enter.

We do not require exclusivity from our members, but most of us become exclusive after a time within our organization.

We have some of the best cultivation techniques and resources in this world, as well as two Spatial Kingdoms. Only those exclusive ones can enjoy the best of what we have. However, even someone still involved in other organizations' affairs can benefit greatly from being in our group.

We have contacts with all the strongest families in the world, with the Elves Island and the dragon government of the Continent of Beasts. In addition, we organize the Continental Tournament, but we also have the largest network of informants worldwide.

If something shocking to Demigods happens anywhere in the Spiritual World, our members would certainly be among the first to find out about it, even without being exclusive." Julian said proudly.

"That sounds incredible," Minos said, already knowing some of this information but surprised by others. "But what is the purpose of your organization? What do people like me have to give in return for joining you?"

"We do not desire domination if that is what you think. Our purpose is to study cultivation, develop our powers, and, who knows, reach new heights.

So few of us have reached the 11th stage... We are searching for a method to change this and facilitate the spiritual development of our world!"
