After two weeks of traveling through The Enchanted Realm, Minos’ group found a place for part of the group to go into seclusion.

This place wasn’t close to any city, but it wasn’t so isolated that the group would need months of travel to reach cities and places where the strongest could take advantage of local opportunities.

The group needed to be close enough to places where the Sovereigns of the team could go back and forth for jobs and missions that would guarantee them opportunities for growth and financial accumulation.

Meanwhile, the area they chose couldn’t be part of the territory of any powerful force, but it couldn’t be weak either. Although the cultivation threshold in this world was level 114, that didn’t mean every area of the planet could be useful for reaching it.

Some locations in this world pose challenges for cultivation beyond level 105.

Fortunately, most of the group was weak and a place capable of taking them to level 105 was already too good for them in the short term.

The region they had chosen met all these requirements, where they could cultivate to level 107 with no problems, they were only three weeks away from a large city with opportunities for Sovereigns and they were not in anyone’s territory.

…

“Now I’ll start my advance,” Minos said after seeing that his entire group was settled in the camp they had built in this mountainous area of The Enchanted Land.

They had arrived there hours ago, discussed their plans for Minos’ imminent absence and also established their defenses in the area. Everything was ready when they started dinner under the local night gloom, the last meal with everyone there together for a while.

When Minos finished eating and warned his group, everyone rose from their seats to wish him good luck and tell him not to worry while he was busy.

After speaking his last words before the start of his advance, Minos sat down a little away from everyone in the group, going back to meditating to increase his spiritual power for the first time since leaving Zocarro.

The moment he started meditating, the density of energy in the surroundings changed, with black clouds appearing in the night sky of the area.

Without even needing to use a Divine Medicine, Minos sucked up the energy in the surroundings, breaking the barrier from level 99 to level 100 in less than a minute of cultivation!

He had reached the absolute peak of level 99 many years ago, having understood everything there was to understand about the Mortal Journey.

Being in a powerful world, where the pressure of the surrounding energy was powerful enough for Sovereigns to advance by cultivating normally there, Minos only needed to make his classic cultivation moves to advance!

His companions watched him with eyes glowing with excitement, having followed him for a long time and waited most of the way for the day when he would reach level 100.

Ruth and Abby felt their eyes getting moist, remembering what a great journey they had been on alongside him.

They hadn’t imagined in the past that reaching level 100 would be just another step for Minos. In the past, they believed they could live in peace with him after this breakthrough. Today, they knew that wasn’t the case.

Even so, they couldn’t help but be moved when they felt his aura stabilizing at level 100. It had a deep meaning for them!

Also, Minos would certainly greatly increase his powers with this breakthrough!

As his wives watched him with emotion, Minos felt all his senses advancing tremendously, reaching ranges 11 times stronger than his previous senses.

His physical quality changed, with impurities leaving his body, while his soul grew stronger, with each of his skills and techniques improving as his energies multiplied.

For an instant, Minos seemed to become the center of a drain, drawing in all the mana in the area, as if it were water accumulating above a drain that until recently had been blocked.

But now there was no longer any obstruction in the way!

His bones turned completely golden, while his recovery factor developed.

The Incorruptible Heart beat at a stronger pace, causing a drumming noise to emerge from within Minos’ being.

Then, under everyone’s observation, a golden glow emerged from Minos’ forehead, causing the black and red snake tattoo to thicken as his Spatial Kingdom ring exploded.

At that moment, Minos opened his eyes and found himself in a totally different place from where he had started his meditation.

An old man appeared in front of him, sitting on a golden throne, while the passage of time seemed to have stopped completely.

“You’ve finally arrived here,” said the voice of Henricus Longus, as Minos looked into the eyes of the figure who had been so important in his life.

“God of Time…” Minos muttered Henricus Longus’ old title.

The old man rose from his throne, as a giant hourglass appeared behind him, with him raising one of his hands towards Minos.

“Congratulations on solving the calamity in the Spiritual World. I never thought you would go through such an incredible journey to achieve it, but what matters is your result. Now you can inherit all my powers. Use them to reach the Upper Realm!”

After the words of the old man with white hair and many wrinkles on his face, a pillar of golden light enveloped Minos’ body, undoing the seal left on that body when Minos was 9 to 10 years old.

Centuries had passed, but that seal remained, waiting for when Minos would become a God ‘like’ Henricus Longus.

Minos narrowed his eyes, seeing Henricus Longus’ move to nurture someone capable of fully awakening his powers upon reaching level 100.

The old man began to disappear, but not before smiling and muttering. “As long as you live, I’ll be alive through your powers. Go ahead, Minos. Achieve immortality!”

After these words, Henricus Longus disappeared completely, while Minos felt the hourglass completely under his control.

At that moment, Minos’ new ability was born, a combination of his 10 techniques and Henricus Longus’ inheritance, his first divine ability!
