Chapter 2725 The First Room of the Tower
Minos was confronted with three figures: seraphim wings, a dragon’s head, and a brown-haired human body almost identical to the one he had before.
Faced with these three parts of himself, he understood more or less what this test was about. ‘You want to test my will? Do you want to see if I still recognize myself?’ Minos questioned himself in front of these figures.
‘Nonsense. Shapes don’t matter. Only one’s will matters in the cultivation world. The way one presents oneself is nothing more than a temporary shell in constant transformation.’
He watched as the three forms moved as if to attack him—the dragon spitting flames, the seraphim wings, replete with eyes, casting golden rays of light, and the brown-haired humanoid shaping what looked like a sword to strike him diagonally.
With a smile on his face, Minos allowed the three to attack, closing his eyes and standing with his arms open. ‘
There’s nothing to be afraid of. Just disappear.’
With that thought, the three essences attacking him vanished just before reaching him.
Minos felt a dense fog envelop his body, instantly absorbing bright spots around him.
Opening his eyes, he felt a refreshing breath, with his skin gaining slight golden traces, marking his spiritual body.
An insignia, the size of an adult human finger, formed in front of Minos, bearing the number one symbol. Then he heard the voice of the True Celestial.
“Congratulations on winning room number 1. From now on, you can cultivate in this space and leave whenever you like. As long as you are in the room, this will be your domain. No one will invade it and you will be safe. However, be careful. The passage of time here differs from outside, and your time to go to the second floor may already be running out.”
Minos narrowed his eyes as he tried to read the passage of time in this place. Noticing that there was indeed a distortion, he concluded that a day outside would be equivalent to about a minute inside this room.
‘That’s what I call a brutal difference! That’s dozens of times what I can do with my divine ability, even after my recent qualitative evolution.’ Minos laughed to himself as he realized the capabilities of the True Celestial behind this inheritance.
He did not know the True Celestial’s cultivation, but given such a being’s ability to control time and space, Minos wouldn’t doubt that this heirloom had been built by someone above level 125.
He immediately began cultivating after completing the time he could stay there, not finding the test that difficult, nor even the prize for winning it that great. Certainly, being able to cultivate there for a year in a matter of minutes would be convenient. If this was repeated throughout the tower, then for those in this inheritance, the duration of the inheritance phase would be very short.
Obviously, those outside this dimension would still experience the passage of normal time, but it was nice not to have to experience so many years in this place.
But Minos was not disappointed. This was the first floor of a 100-storey tower. It seemed logical to think that the first challenges would be easier and more common, while the difficulty would increase as they progressed.
‘I’m going to cultivate for three hours and then come back. Seven rooms will remain on this second floor. If no one has completed them before I leave this room, I’ll try to get through a second challenge on the first floor.’
He thought to himself, already cultivating while absorbing the extremely concentrated and rich energy of this area.
Even if he was only going to stay there for the equivalent of six months, those would be months of cultivation in a much richer environment than Uzira!
It had been a long time since Minos had felt his cultivation improve with just a few minutes of cultivation. But in this place, he would notice such a sensation, something he hadn’t felt since he was in the Spiritual World!
…
When he left room number one, Minos stopped in front of the room’s door, now glowing in a green light, similar to 92 rooms around the second floor.
He saw open doors in 45 of the rooms already complete, while 7 of the rooms were white, still untouched.
Several of the contestants were divided into groups or even standing alone in front of their rooms, waiting for the end of their year in this place.
On the ceiling, Minos saw that there were still six months to go before the second floor opened. His estimate was almost 100% correct.
Not everyone had performed as well as him and they were now disappointed with their situation.
“What a shame you left your room so early too, Minos. It would have been better for you to stay and cultivate until the end of our time on this floor.” Forfex approached the man with the white hair and seraphim wings. “Once we leave one of these rooms, we can’t enter it again. And although the area we’re in is rich in energy, it’s no match for the interior of these rooms… And of course, it’s dangerous to cultivate here.”
Minos wasn’t surprised by Forfex’s words.
“That’s not a problem. I went ahead because I want to test something.” Minos walked towards one of the few rooms that no one had entered.
He thought that others would have tried what he was planning. But luckily for him, no one seemed interested in trying to complete a second room on the second floor. But since the rules didn’t speak against such a thing, Minos wanted to go ahead and see where it would take him.
‘Worst-case scenario, I won’t be able to start the challenge. But if I do, I’ll at least be able to cultivate for the next few months until the second floor opens.’ He thought as Forfex accompanied him with doubt drawn across his face.
“Where are you going?”
Minos didn’t answer him until he reached room 74 and put his hands on the door handle, drawing the attention of everyone in the vicinity.
Not only was he already a potential target for practically everyone there, having finished the previous phase of the inheritance so well, but his behavior now drew attention.
“I’m going to test something. If you like, choose another room for yourself. Right now, I’m going to spend my last few months in room 74.”
Minos moved on, leaving Forfex behind, as he knew he would get what he wanted. As he entered that room, he felt a sense of what would unfold, seeing that he was indeed right.
The surrounding energy appeared in the air and not long after Minos entered there, the opaque white glass walls of that room turned green, propelling Forfex and the others nearby.
‘Shit. I’ve got to take one of these rooms for myself!’ Forfex ran to room 88, seeing that the others in the vicinity were already moving for the same purpose.
In less than a minute after Minos’ move, all six of the remaining rooms were occupied!freewebnoveℓ.com
