Chapter 2731 33rd Floor
A few more years have passed within the special dimension of the True Celestial.
After overcoming the challenges of several floors, alternating between moments of double challenges and extreme opportunities, Minos and his two allies, still alive in this competition, had to make changes upon entering the 32nd floor.
Between the 21st and 30th floors, things had continued to go well for them, with the trio sticking to their strategy on the lower floors. But as they passed the 31st floor, Minos and his allies realized that they would have to be careful from now on.
With 70 rooms at their disposal and 55 competitors remaining, the floors from the 31st to the 40th, from what Minos had already sensed on the 31st floor, were much harder than the lower floors and even completing a single room could be difficult. When they reached floor 32, he instructed Soli and Forfex to calm their pace and make better use of the opportunities in the rooms they entered.
Now, as they finished their respective rooms and met to await entry to the 33rd floor, the three of them gathered, with Minos getting straight to the point about the problems ahead.
“As I predicted earlier, when you enter a second challenge room, if you cannot complete it successfully, you may lose your badge from the first room you completed.” Minos pointed out as his companions watched the battle unfold on the 32nd floor.
At this moment, four individuals who had tried to complete a second room on this floor were fighting against others who had only completed one of the rooms.
“They failed to complete their tests, but there were those who didn’t fail. Should we really forget our previous strategy?” Forfex asked, as he looked at Minos doubtfully.
Minos nodded positively. “We should. But you can go ahead if you want. I won’t go and consequently, you won’t have my help. But judging by the number of rooms that will become available to us over the next few levels, there probably won’t even be a need for you to protect yourself from competitors for those rooms. It’s likely that some of our competitors will encourage us to try to win more than one room per floor.”
“That would make us risk a lot and run increasing risks of having to fight in desperation like these individuals doing it now.” Soli agreed as she analyzed the situation better than Forfex.
Minos continued. “We’re not the only ones being more careful. Those two dangerous guys are calmer, too. I believe they’ve realized the same thing we have.”
As the challenges became more difficult, the returns for each of the inheritance contenders improved. Minos had already realized this at a higher level than his opponents had .
Since they had reached the range of the challenge they were in, their cultivation and Physique improvements had jumped substantially. Even without him pushing himself in more than one room per floor, he was seeing increasing results and approaching the point where he would have similar or even superior improvements to the double challenges.
“That’s… I just find it strange that we stand there and watch them fight,” Forfex said in an uncomfortable tone.
“That won’t last long.” Minos said with a bitter smile on his face. “Those competitors who are left at the moment still have good understandings of cultivation for the most part. They should continue to progress over the next few floors, but soon they’ll fail and they’ll have no choice but to challenge us.
From this point on, we’ll fight until the end of this inheritance phase.” Minos tapped one of Forfex’s shoulders, indicating for the man to relax.
With a glance toward the brutal battle taking place, Minos sensed the outcome of the developing confrontation.
‘Two more will fall here. But two of the survivors will be eliminated from the inheritance… What will really happen to those eliminated? Is it possible to resist losing all the body parts of a True Celestial?’
As he contemplated the rules of this place, two of the individuals competing to keep their insignia or get their opponents’ insignia fell bleeding in the middle of that area.
Only one of the four challengers managed to remove the insignia he wanted from his opponent’s body, while the other two individuals who were still alive failed.
“Good luck to you, haha,” said the sole winner as he left the side of the confrontation and headed for the next floor; the passage to the 33rd floor had just opened, causing all the remaining competitors to move on.
Minos put the thoughts of a few moments ago to one side as he flew alongside Forfex and Soli. Imagining the battles ahead, he was excited to finally put his current powers to the test.
It was good to progress without having to worry about constant fighting. But for cultivators in general, and especially for a fight-lover like Minos, avoiding confrontation wasn’t necessarily something that made him happy. He was interested to see how his opponents had grown over the years, as well as looking forward to showing off everything he could currently do.
‘My cultivation should reach level 116 after the 33rd floor… Sigh! I wonder how my companions are doing? They must have experienced four decades since we parted.’
With this thought in mind, Minos made his way to one of the available rooms, curious about his family, but aware that he had to focus on what he could affect.
When he left this place—he was sure he would do it—he would solve the problems of that group!
…
The time for Minos and his competitors in the inheritance of the True Celestial being was different compared to those in Zocarro.
While 32 years had passed for those in the tower of the True Celestial, only just over 10 years had passed for Abby’s group.
In 10 years, they had scoured the area further east of Uzira in search of opportunities, following Leger’s recommendations, while taking extra care compared to their previous journeys.
Everyone was constantly thinking about Minos and how good it would be to have him with the group again. Many incidents had happened in recent years and, even though the group was still in one piece, three more members of Armhands had been forced to sacrifice their Flashdrain parasites.
Even Walkas and Wenni had fought to defend the group, ensuring the group’s arrival at the last location indicated by Leger.
There, once again, the group encountered a spatial distortion. However, this time they didn’t have Minos’ help or the option of refusing the ‘opportunity’.
The moment they were a few meters away from the spatial distortion, something beyond their control happened, and an abnormal suction phenomenon pulled them towards the spatial distortion.
‘Shit!’ Ruth struggled to leave something behind as she flew out of control.
‘Find us. We’re in trouble!’ She marked an item that only Minos would recognize.
