The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2424

During the last eight weeks of the Millennium Massacre, Minos would use half of that time to recover his body and soul from the severe injuries he had suffered in order to reach level 10.

Luckily for him, his body was practically as strong as that of a dragon of the same cultivation level, which gave the young Stuart significant resistance to pain, regeneration ability, and mental strength.

By taking advantage of the dense energy and cultivation laws of the cultivation realm at the highest level of the pyramid, he could heal his entire body, from the bones to the muscle structures that had previously been severely injured.

If he had been in another area, he was sure that it would have taken him several months to recover his body from such severe injuries. Fortunately, after a month of hard work, he would be able to complete his recovery and reach a new level.

If he were to try the level 9 to 10 advancement test again, he would be able to make it all the way to level 10 without Soli's help, without having to go through what he had gone through.

However, after this first half of his time at level 10, it would be time for him to really make the most of this place and use all the pressure of this area to push his characteristics to even higher heights.

His physique would reach the threshold between Divine and Celestial in his last days in The Red Expanse, and all of his techniques, secondary skills, and soul traits would show signs of evolution.

He wouldn't discover all of his progress for a while, but he already knew in this place that he was growing at an absurd rate.

But he wouldn't stop to think about it during any of his last days there. In fact, none of the other 99 remaining competitors would even take the time to think about how they were doing. The last days of the Millennium Massacre would be all about cultivating to the limit and gathering as much as possible.

Thus, without realizing it, these 100 aliens would reach their last day there, when they could finally return to their worlds and prepare for the next encounter!

...

With one minute to go before the end of the Millennium Massacre, all 100 remaining heirs felt a special call in their hearts.

Opening his eyes, Minos understood the same as his 99 opponents when the Celestial Being suddenly made himself known to his 100 chosen winners of this phase of the selection.

"You have done well to come here, my chosen ones. Some of you have shown great things and even made me excited about the next stage. So without further ado, good luck on your travels through the universe. When you've all met the requirements for our next meeting by reaching level 115, we'll see you again.

Until then, be careful. It's not impossible your opponents out there will steal your spots for the next inheritance trial."

With these words, the Celestial used his powers to activate the Infinity Seals on the bodies of each of those 100 aliens, while cracks appeared in space next to those competitors.

Without seeing each other, the 100 aliens were transported to the different parts of the universe they had left a little over 450 years ago.

For some of their remaining companions, such as Minos' family, between 40 and 45 years had passed since their companions left.

As he returned to The Enchanted Realm, Minos had a smile on his face, wondering if he would find his family and friends in the place he had chosen earlier, or if he would have to search for them.

Kendrick, Lily, and Hollie must have Sovereign harvests by now, hehe. I'm looking forward to traveling to Zocarro with them. He thought about this as he crossed space, feeling as if he was traveling at light speed towards that world.

...

Meanwhile, in The Enchanted Realm...

At the headquarters of Banished Crossfire, Igiro was receiving news from the group he had sent to pursue Kendrick's group about a year ago.

Despite Kendrick's escape a year ago, the cult's forces hadn't completely lost track of him. After searching for the tracker attached to Grisdi's communication device, the sect had sent allied groups of its forces to hunt down the team led by Kendrick.

Hunting people in space or on neutral planets in this galaxy in the middle of a war wasn't easy. Even more so, considering that time passed more quickly in The Enchanted Real, which meant that as much as a year had passed in this world, only a few months had passed for Kendrick and the others since their escape.

So, the last few months had been a lot of investigating and hunting, and only now was the sect closing in on the trail of Kendrick's group, which obviously hadn't stopped.

"Guardsman Igiro, our group is about to intercept Kendrick's group. They've just entered The Blossom World, so it will be a tough approach." A level 108 Sovereign said, while Igiro feared the worst.

"Tell the group infiltrating The Blossom World not to hesitate. Kill Kendrick Stuart! We can't take that risk, or he might become a member of the enemy forces. By then, he'll turn against our world completely and we'll be screwed!" Igiro said worriedly, his voice hoarse.

"Of course. Our allies know how delicate the situation is with him. They will assassinate him as soon as..."

As this member of Banished Crossfire went to secure one of the sect's ten most important elders, a guard rushed in with a glowing object in his hands.

"Guard Igiro, our group in Mensnet Gorge has just reported a change in that location. Kendrick Stuart's father seems to return to our world!"

"What?" Igiro stood up from his chair and moved to Mensnet Gorge moments later!

Everyone in the surrounding area went on alert, while various teleportation devices began to be used.

If they couldn't eliminate Kendrick Stuart in time, the best way for them to prepare for the future was to capture Minos Stuart!
