After a few weeks of traveling through the wormhole, which the group had entered at Nemo Colony, they reached the other side of the space tunnel and arrived in the Omega Solar System.

The point of arrival in the Omega Solar System was obviously not a random place where the group would encounter the emptiness of space. It was a known point in that galaxy, on a planet partially inhabited by one of the many races that existed in the galaxy.

The galaxy they were in had countless solar systems and civilizations. Some of them were at a level similar to the civilization of The Adamant Land, but most of them were inferior ones that couldn’t even leave their worlds.

Some of them had much higher cultivation limits than that of The Adamant Land.

However, among the few high-level civilizations capable of traveling through the galaxy itself, there were three, besides The Adamant Land, that came and went throughout the galaxy.

The strongest of these was the galaxy’s great dominant power, which prevented the others from strengthening much further than they already had, in order to avoid changes in the galaxy’s power structure. This civilization was the one that regulated the exit of living beings from its domain, but it had little to do when aliens arrived in the area.

Still, their actions were enough to prevent coalitions like the old Mechanic Empire from advancing their plans within the galaxy and causing instability in the area.

As a result, before its fall, the Mechanic Empire ruled at most a few solar systems in its own galaxy, as well as a few solar systems and worlds in other galaxies of equal or lesser power than its own.

As old as the Mechanic Empire seemed, it was actually a young civilization compared to the one behind the world where Minos’ party had just arrived.

But while the Mechanical Empire—before its fall—wasn’t enough to dominate the galaxy, that didn’t mean Minos’ group would have any trouble doing so if they wanted to!

After leaving the wormhole they had used to reach the area, the six travelers encountered the soldiers of the galaxy’s strongest civilization, who greeted them uniquely. The men lowered their weapons and heads and introduced themselves to Minos’ group, offering help.

“Universal travelers, welcome to Ciri TF. We, the humble guards of His Majesty, are at your service. Please let us assist you in your journey or mission.” Said a level 100 creature, one of the strongest in the area.

As much as the civilization behind Ciri TF was the strongest in the galaxy and controlled the exit of creatures from its domains, it had no powerful local Sovereigns.

There were even some individuals above level 102—the galaxy’s limit—who had gone outside the galaxy, grown stronger, and then returned to take care of their power domains. However, these beings were nothing compared to the individuals who had cultivated on Zocarro!

As much as Minos’ group had made the journey from Zocarro to this place, and it seemed easy to replicate the feat, things weren’t as simple as they seemed.

Minos’ group had only accomplished such a feat because they had spent decades accumulating wealth in Zocarro, something that even mid-level Sovereigns would find difficult to achieve in their lifetime. But they had spent practically everything they had in order to leave such a world and move on outside of Zocarro’s home galaxy.

Imagine how hard it would be to get to Zocarro from a weak place like this galaxy? If it hadn’t been for the accidental way Minos and his companions got to Zocarro, they might never have accomplished such a feat!

This was the reality for most creatures, even if they had the potential, even if there were ways to travel to places as powerful as Zocarro. They simply didn’t have the bases to make the journey to that world!

Thus, the aliens who could leave this galaxy and go to other more powerful places in the universe were few, and the chances of one of them reaching a world as powerful as Zocarro were practically zero.

As soon as they noticed the beings with extremely solid cultivation bases, something special for beings from higher worlds, the beings in the area understood they shouldn’t interfere with their journey.

Minos and his group were not surprised. They had expected to come face to face with the local beings.

The level 103 robot then said. “We’re going to The Adamant Land. Can you lend us a spaceship? We don’t intend to stay here for long.”

“Oh? Of course!” One local said, smiling broadly, unable to hide his satisfaction at hearing that they didn’t intend to stay. “Please join us.”

As they followed the locals, too afraid of them to utter any hostile words or actions, someone mustered the courage to ask. “Are the elders friends of the civilization beyond The Adamant Land?”

“No, we are enemies,” Minos got right to the point.

“Oh? Then I believe we have good news for the seniors,” the leader of the group smiled even more, because they knew some facts about The Adamant Land.

They didn’t have real-time information, as their technological and spiritual level wasn’t high enough to keep up with everything that was happening in the galaxy. However, they knew about things that had happened on that planet in the center of the galaxy up to two years ago.

Minos’ eyes lit up. For the first time in a long time, he had the situation on his home planet explained to him with news of the war. The leader of the guards there told him. “A civilization called Irpoll conquered The Adamant Land. After years of war with a discovered planet, the Mechanic Empire becomes weakened. Irpoll seized the opportunity to take revenge for old grievances, leading to a rebellion of the nations once ruled by the Mechanic Empire.”

“Now Irpoll dominates The Adamant Land, while the last survivors of the Mechanic Empire have fled to the world that weakened them. Irpoll is attacking both the native civilization of this planet and the refugees from the Adamant Land.”

The six members of the group who were going to the Spiritual World couldn’t help but look worried when they heard this!
