Chapter 2719  Last Weeks in the Pocket Dimension

Months after beginning the major challenge of the dimension, Minos had completed more than half of the areas he needed to navigate within the underground ruin.

Currently, he was wrapping up the opportunities presented on level 8, which he had completed over a month ago, allowing him to refine his powers further.

Even though he possessed a Celestial-grade Physique, Minos felt a marginal improvement since reaching the level 124 soul fragment dimension.

While it might seem daunting at first, few ever achieve the grade of Minos' Physique, and even fewer continue to evolve after reaching that level. However, the gap between the Celestial and Absolute grades is so vast that it's almost expected to see some improvement after reaching Celestial grade. For someone in Minos' position, it was typical to seize opportunities and progress.

Despite the inheritance he was enjoying being that of a peak Supreme, there were still opportunities available that enabled him to enhance his Physique slightly.

Besides, Minos was confident that if one of his people completed all the challenges of the ruin, one could progress from the beginning to the end of the Divine grade and reach the Celestial grade!

Unfortunately, his wives wouldn't have the chance to elevate the grade of their Physiques for the time being. Minos no longer planned to stay there much longer, and he sensed soon they would all be leaving this pocket space.

But he was satisfied. Having not even become a Supreme yet, he already had a 10% qualitative advance of his Physique towards the Absolute grade!

Leaving the chamber where he had just taken his last chance, he moved on to the ninth test of this ruin.

'Maybe I'll get the Absolute grade Physique soon after I become a Celestial... If I'm not mistaken, something like that should be necessary to win the race for the True Celestial inheritance.' He thought to himself, estimating that he would almost certainly have opportunities to evolve his Physique during the next phase of the True Celestial inheritance selection.

In this case, it wasn't so impossible for him to imagine that he would have such a chance when he went to the last stage of the True Celestial inheritance.

With a smile on his face, Minos reached level 9 of ruin 1, now thinking about his wives.

'I'll certainly be able to help Abby, Gloria and Ruth reach the Celestial grade of their Physiques after I return from the True Celestial inheritance. At that time, we'll be able to fulfill our mission in Uzira and send someone back to the guild.'

He then cleared all thoughts from his mind as he changed his body shape, displaying his seraphim wings in full splendor.

...

All of Minos' companions in the dimension were closely monitoring his progress, with the soul fragment allowing them to observe him.

Everyone knew that this was a decisive moment. As long as Minos completed the challenge, they would leave the dimension in a few weeks.

No one was cultivating in seclusion or training in the mountainous space. Instead, they were all focused on Minos' campaign, eagerly awaiting their return to Uzira and the continuation of their original mission.

Leger had reached level 117, while a few other Supremes in the group had made further progress. Ruth had reached the end of level 114, and Abby and Gloria were on the brink of advancing to that level. They expected to do so shortly after leaving the dimension.

Tiolos remained at level 118, having not taken full advantage of the area's opportunities since he had reached his current limit. Without challenges or rewards to drive faster improvements, he anticipated needing more time to reach level 119. However, with around 300 years spent in the dimension, he was satisfied with his progress, having improved by two levels.

Interestingly, the only ones who had improved by nearly four levels were Minos' wives, surpassing even his own advancements.

With a cultivation base 2.6 times greater than that of talented people at the same level as him, Minos would naturally take a much longer time than one would expect for someone of his level to be able to complete the requirements for advancement.

But even with a more robust cultivation base, he had grown rapidly and was currently on the threshold of reaching the 12th stage!

Abby, Ruth and Gloria observed this, as they could even feel Minos' aura amid the challenge. But precisely because of this, all three had worried looks on their faces.

"He's very close to advancing," Gloria said as she pressed one of her hands to her legs, sitting on a rock.

"What will happen if he progresses while we're here?" Ruth asked, still in the dark about this strange possibility.

They were in a situation where if he advanced in the middle of the challenge, or at the end of the challenge, he could cause them to encounter very peculiar circumstances, and they could be trapped in this space or even expelled.

Abby sighed as she looked at the spatial ring Minos had given her, where the corpse of the former First Elder of Armhands lay.

"I'm afraid we'll have to go our separate ways without him for a long time. The last time he evolved a stage, he said he experienced centuries in that place. For us it was only a few decades, but this time it may not be just that."

They continued talking among themselves without bringing their concerns to their companions. But sooner or later, they would have to talk to them about Minos' possible absence after his breakthrough!

For the moment, it wasn't time to do that, and they continued to focus on watching him, who would soon be able to surpass level 9.

The challenges in ruin number 1 only lasted 60 seconds, so as difficult as they were, the tests themselves were quick.

Extremely worn out and wounded, Minos went on to his ninth opportunity, with 6 challenges remaining before concluding the primary deal with the soul fragment behind this dimension!
