The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2552 Astrimia

After the serious talk with the seraph's spirit, Minos set off, traveling alone for days, with the spirit helping him with directions every three or four days.

At this rate, in only one month, Minos would arrive on Astrimia, near the space distortion indicated by the seraph's spirit.

Upon arriving on this world, similar in size and power to Zocarro, Minos again alerted the seraph's spirit to his position.

Awakening from his slumber, the spirit sensed Minos' surroundings and expressed to the human how pleased he was to feel the planet's unmistakable magical aura.

'When I was young, I often came here to train and hone my skills,' the seraph said as he looked around the metallic city he was in, an extremely developed and populated place.

Aliens came and went from this place. It was one of the most powerful planets in the galaxy, a place coveted by entire civilizations from this and other galaxies.

'Anyway, to get to the spatial distortion that will take us to my world, you need a single spaceship capable of leaving the surface of this world. Get that and go to...'

The seraph's spirit gave Minos directions, pointing out the way to the spatial distortion where the young level 106 human was to call him again before they embarked on the last part of the journey.

'By the way, would it be interesting if I advanced to level 107 before entering your world? Or is there no need for me to worry about that?' Minos asked.

The seraph looked at Minos with a smile on his translucent face. 'Advance to level 107 before we continue there. You won't be in danger if you don't advance, but you will benefit more if you are stronger. As I've said before, you will be rewarded for completing this mission.'

'All right. Then I'll take some time off to cultivate in seclusion on this planet. In about a year, I should advance and complete the rest of the journey,' Minos said, without waiting for an answer.

After Minos' words, the seraph disappeared, returning to the seal of the seraphim wing tattoo on one of the human's hands.

Alone again, Minos looked around and hurried on in search of a place where he could buy a spaceship and then go into seclusion.

Fortunately, Minos now spoke over 40 different languages. With such a deep knowledge, learning the languages of different civilizations had become a simple activity for him.

With his knowledge and the help of powerful local cultivators, he could learn the language of the area in less than an hour. With the Incorruptible Heart working on his side, adapting to the place itself would always be quick and easy.

He would soon find a shop that sold small spaceships, a common type of artifact found in shops on any planet like this.

On Zocarro, it was also easy to find such shops, although it wasn't at all easy to get ships into orbit.

Given Zocarro's strong gravity, it was much easier for someone to travel to the Ganaway Refuge and go to the Artificial Moon with instantaneous transportation than with a spaceship leaving from the surface.

But the most powerful beings on Zocarro had spaceships that could leave the planet via the surface, similar to what happened on Astrimia.

As long as you had enough resources, it wouldn't be difficult to buy a ship good enough for such a journey, neither on Zocarro nor on Astrimia.

Minos happened to be a Sovereign with wealth to envy, so he would soon negotiate his individual spaceship, which he intended to use to leave the planet and follow the directions given by the seraph's spirit.

With the individual spaceship in his ring, Minos navigated the bustling streets of the technological city. The air buzzed with the hum of magnetic levitation rails, various types of flying carriages zipping by, and robots attending to their tasks. Creatures, mostly artificial, moved about with precision on the ground and in the air.

Surveillance mechanisms were omnipresent, with probes meticulously monitoring even the simplest characteristics of the city's denizens. Minos was acutely aware of this, yet his Incorruptible Heart guarded the most crucial information about himself.

'This civilization is truly advanced,' he thought, marveling at the sight before him as he approached a magnificent rocket-shaped building.

Its glass-covered structure shimmered, and the dense energy inside seemed to condense into a fog, giving the interior an ethereal quality.

Entering the building, Minos headed towards the self-service machines. After a brief observation, he grasped the system's workings. The minds of mighty cultivators were indeed fantastic; even at a thousand years old, someone like Minos could learn new things in mere moments.

In no time, he operated the self-service machine, registered his payment, and received the key to a cultivation room suited for cultivators up to level 114. He smiled to himself, appreciating the efficiency and sophistication of the technology around him.

As he made his way to the cultivation room, Minos couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. This city, with its blend of advanced technology and mystical energy, held endless possibilities for someone of his prowess. And he was ready to explore every one of them.

'This is very convenient.'

With the code for his individual cultivation room, Minos followed the directions given by the machine itself and went to the 87th floor of the building, where his room was located.

All he had to do was enter the room's password on a device attached to the door, and he could easily enter the place where he planned to spend the next year.

As soon as he closed the door, Minos observed the interior of the 20 square meter room, which had white-lit walls, a capsule-shaped construction in the center of the area, with a ladder to its position and a padded seat.

'The machine scanned me and guided me to choose a room compatible with my body and type of powers... Impressive. In the future, I'll have to use some of my people to learn how to build such devices.'

After thinking about the wonders of this civilization for a while, Minos closed his eyes and sat down in the lotus position.

A golden hourglass, as large as the capsule-shaped structure, appeared around his body, slowing down the passage of time for him.

The Hydra Amulet glowed, intensifying the power of Minos' divine ability—Temporal Sands—while from now on, he would experience nearly six years in the span of just one year that he could stay in this room.

At that time, he planned to advance his cultivation to level 107!
