The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2369

A few days later...

The Spiritual World was buzzing with post-war changes and changes brought about by Minos.

Not only had the Black Plain Empire adopted the fresh changes brought about by him, but all the continents, tribes and states had adopted the most important rules gradually being released by the government of Minos' empire.

Everyone agreed it would be a bad thing for the world to lose its strongest experts to the universe. It would be very welcome to have rules regarding the exit of being that would make it difficult for beings who would probably die easily after leaving the planet. It would also be good to have methods of using the departure of experts to nurture new beings capable of reaching the same level as them.

Even the three current Gods of the Spiritual World understood the need for this and felt it was important to go ahead with Minos' methods to preserve their world. They had their families and states on the planet and already understood that they couldn't take everything with them when they left. Leaving mechanisms in place to keep the planet functional seemed sensible, even to those who could be harmed by these rules at first.

Apart from that, the power configuration of the world could no longer be the same. Minos alone had the power to destroy the planet, so it made no sense for any force other than the one chosen by himself to be in charge of dealing with the entry and exit of living beings from the planet.

All the other states around the world were reformulating their territories, as was already happening in Minos' empire. Going back to the way things were made no sense. Many forces had fallen, new possibilities had arisen, and now each group in the Spiritual World had different perspectives on the future.

The recovery of the world was more about the numbers of native living beings, but not the old power structure or division of territories.

While each part of the planet was moving in different directions, Minos was currently in the North Sea, facing the quasi-Spatial Kingdom covering the universal wormhole connected to The Adamant Land.

...

On the outskirts of the maritime area of the North Sea, Minos, his three wives, the three Gods of the Spiritual World and the two Sovereigns who had come from Zocarro, were floating in the air ahead of the fate of some of them.

Now it was time for him to return to The Adamant Land, join the robot and the level 103 Spiritual World native to end the War of the Worlds with the extermination of Irpoll!

Not everyone there would go on to Irpoll, they were merely there to say goodbye to Minos and the group that would travel with him.

"This quasi-Space Kingdom you've created is stronger than the real Spatial Kingdoms," Vico commented in surprise, not understanding everything about Minos' masterpiece, but feeling enough to say so.

Aurae agreed. "It will be easy for your troops to keep people coming in and out of our world. Despite everything, you remain an outstanding leader of the Black Plain Empire, Minos."

He said. "Don't worry about that for now. My state will be open to everyone who wants to enjoy its opportunities. It will eventually benefit your people, too.

Anyway, have you thought about the proposal I made for you? Will you come with me on this mission?" he asked as he looked at the three of them.

Seven days ago, Minos had decided that it was time to go to The Adamant Land to begin the spatial conquest of his empire.

He knew little about the galaxy where the Spiritual World was. His plan was to explore it in the future and allow his troops to leave the planet and dominate the galaxy itself. But before that, he wanted to take over the galaxy where The Adamant Land was.

Since there was an exit/entrance from the Spiritual World to that galaxy, starting there would be important to limit those who would come close to his world. Not only that, but since he already knew that galaxy very well because of the information he had, mastering it would be easier and quicker.

As for Irpoll, he only wanted to destroy that civilization and had no intention of going to that civilization's galaxy in the short term.

Having warned the Gods of his world about his short-term intentions, Minos was there to say goodbye to them temporarily or even allow them to join his group on the journey ahead.

Aurae smiled and said. "It's tempting to travel the universe, but I'm afraid my tribe will need me more in the short term. So I'm staying."

"Me too. I plan to leave with you when your family leaves the Spiritual World in two years, then I'll spend as much of the remaining time as possible rebuilding my sect on the Divine Continent," Callie commented.

She and the others had already had several conversations with Minos about what was in the universe and where he could leave them to start their universal journeys. According to Minos, he could leave them near Nemo Colony, where they could cultivate a few levels above their current cultivation.

That would be good enough for all of them!

Callie and Vico had already shown an interest in moving on to Nemo Colony in two years' time, while Aurae was still uncertain whether she should do it so soon or stay in the Spiritual World until her tribe recovered and new Gods appeared on the planet.

Vico thought differently. "I'll go with you." He said firmly.

Having lost almost all of his family during the war and being one of the few Spiritual World leaders who had kept much of his home state untouched, there weren't many things in the Eastern Empire that required Vico's presence.

Being very curious about what lay beyond his world and also thirsty for the blood of the race that had brought calamity to his Travisani family, he couldn't pass up the opportunity.

Minos nodded to the three of them, before looking at the two level 102 Sovereigns standing there. "You two must continue your work around the Spiritual World in our absence. Enforce our position against those who are disobedient. But I don't think that will be necessary."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The two men agreed simultaneously, while Callie and Aurae looked at these old acquaintances, who were now many times stronger than them.

Minos, his wives and Vico entered the spaceship inside that quasi-Spatial Kingdom, then set off into the spatial distortion of the universal wormhole.

Staying behind, those two women and two Sovereigns were silent for a second, imagining the future ahead.

Aurae asked after a while. "How long will it take for them to return?"

"Six to nine months. Hardly less or more than that. The problem with everything for them is the road can't be shortened. They'll spend most of their time flying." Said one of the two Sovereigns, who wasn't so keen on flying with the group at the moment.

As weak as the Spiritual World was for them, here at least they had a lot of things to do daily. Minos' group would travel for months with nothing to do, without even the possibility of cultivating, since the area was so weak that none of them could get stronger by cultivating there.

"Let's go back. In about a year, everything about our enemies will have been erased by them." The other Sovereign commented before the group left, each of them heading off in different directions to settle their own affairs.
