A week then passed in the blink of an eye.

Minos and Abby had spent most of their time shopping in Athela's stores in this past period.

Even on that day when the two had gone to the place called, The Weapons House, after talking to the owner of that place, the two had spoken with other blacksmiths and placed their orders. And although they ordered their things with three different people, the couple still have to wait for these items for at least 40 days!

Those blacksmiths still had other orders ahead of this young man's. For that reason, and considering the time each weapon was forged, such a period was not unusual, and Minos didn't even consider going to another store in that town.

Each blacksmith was very busy, and the individuals from that place he had gone to were already one of those high-standard professionals within their respective groups. And because he and Abby would have had to stay in this town for almost two months already, then that deadline was acceptable to them.

Anyway, after that first deal, Minos and Abby had passed the local array masters guild, where they had purchased several copies of spiritual techniques.

In total, Minos had spent 350,000 low-grade crystals on buying 70 copies of Blue-grade techniques and 2.000 medium-grade crystals to get 4 different Black-grade ones.

Minos and Abby had been hospitably welcomed in that location, and unlike at the Jalene City Culinary School, they had not needed to speak with more than one person.

But that was just to be expected. After all, this guild of array masters could be considered the largest in the entire northern region of the Central Continent.

Therefore, they were already used to this type of transaction when negotiating their most common techniques, which were already in circulation in various parts of the region...

Obviously, there were those more special techniques, which even the other organizations Minos had done business with weren't willing to negotiate, no matter the value offered. After all, they would still have to protect themselves, especially in specializations with so many professionals, such as the array masters area.

This profession was number one in the Spiritual World and was necessary for practically every activity. Because of this, the number of people specialized in this profession was massive, consequently, with a large number of competitors...

An example of this is the number of top professionals in each specialization in this region. While top-level grade-2 cooks were no more than 25 in the entire northern part of the Central Continent, there were at least 150 array masters of the same rank!

And this number was not higher because reaching the final parts of the 6th stage was not easy for anyone in this region. Otherwise, that number could be three or even four times that!

In any case, Minos and Abby took advantage of the opportunity to do business with several array masters from that guild after obtaining these copies of more common techniques.

Minos had many arrays to buy, and naturally, he couldn't place this order from a single store. In fact, the young Stuart had talked to the person who had attended him in that guild in an attempt to hire the service from that location, to contact the professionals available to produce the arrays he needed.

And with that, they had reached an agreement regarding the production of 100 high-level grade-1 arrays, 15 low-level grade-2, and 4 medium-level grade-2 ones.

Most of these items would serve to increase the density of Dry City's spiritual energy and standard services in the army. However, some of them were for the defense of the city and the training of Dillian and Eda, who was already almost at level 50.

In total, this thing had taken about two-thirds of all the medium-grade and low-grade crystals that Minos had for this trip!

After all, as the most durable items in the Spiritual World, arrays were also the most expensive artifacts of all!

Finally, they would also have to wait a few more days for these arrays to be prepared. However, contrary to the harsh reality of the blacksmith profession, there was not a significant lack of resources or professionals in the specialization of the array masters.

Therefore, the deadlines that Minos had to wait for were much shorter, being just 20 days.

...

After Minos and Abby had spent days shopping, including ordering many pills from various local stores, the two had taken time off to train at the local cultivation tower.

They had already placed orders for all the items they wanted to buy in Athela, and now they just needed to negotiate the techniques of a few professions, which were the specialized areas of medicine, the designer's profession, and the spiritual judges.

Minos and Abby had visited the respective associations of each of these professions in the city of Athela. Still, they had had no luck finding the people responsible for the sales issue.

That was expected to happen in the Spiritual Judges Association, as their numbers were meager. However, for the other two professions, this was not normal.

And they had discovered that, in fact, they had both been unlucky enough to arrive in this town at a bad time for these two professions.

One of them, the design guild, was having a conference in a city in the north of the kingdom, and the upper echelons would be away for another week. As for the other, the highest level professionals in this area were all busy with a specific event that had taken place recently.

Because of this, Minos and Abby still hadn't resolved this final part of their business locally and had begun to focus on their training. They would at most go once a day to the buildings of those two organizations, during their rest, while they were leaving to visit the design association after that period had passed.

Other than that, their routine now was to spend the nights at the hotel and train most of the day in the local cultivation tower.

...

Two youths were seated not far from each other in a room on the 11th floor of Athela's cultivation tower this time.

There was practically no furniture or decorations in that place, and most of the items there were of spiritual arrays aimed at training warriors. In addition, there was a fighting stage, a large bathroom, a kitchen, and a small space with two cultivation cushions.

And right on top of these two cushions, the two people were silently meditating, at the same time, on how many low-grade crystals could be seen in their surroundings.

One of them was wearing only black trousers while the blue-haired girl was in a white dress.

And while the two cultivated, the spiritual energy was concentrated around the body of the two. The air was slightly distorted, with one of them seemed to have his muscles completely contracted at that moment.

Next to the beautiful young woman with blue hair, the man had beads of sweat running down his forehead while his eyelids fluttered involuntarily.

Minos finally felt that his advancement to level 44 was near due to the natural reactions of his body and soul!

...

Time passed, and soon Abby had finished cultivating when she realized that Minos was about to advance in level. 'Ahh, it's truly amazing how he can cultivate so fast.' So, she thought to herself as she had a beautiful smile on her face.

She didn't like the idea of being too far behind in terms of cultivation compared to Minos. Still, she was genuinely happy to see him getting stronger.

And while Abby admired Minos' cultivation speed and watched his body closely, this young man finally reached the pinnacle of level 43 and advanced to the next level!

Crack!
