The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2557  Leaving to return to Zeta Draconis

Minos surveyed his current abilities, marveling at the improvements.

'Everything about me has improved a lot. Not just because of my level increase. Certain things in me have improved as if I had advanced a stage!' he thought, feeling a surge of exhilaration.

Using his divine power, he realized he could now control time with greater precision, allowing him to see the future more efficiently and for longer periods. The world seemed to slow around him as he tested his newfound abilities, the threads of time weaving more clearly before his eyes.

His Dark Sea had also evolved, reaching a level where he could now permanently affect targets, forcing them to serve him without continuous energy input. The thought of wielding such influence sent a shiver down his spine.

Minos tested his Dragon's Gaze, feeling its increased potency. He was confident he could intimidate even level 114 creatures with a single glance, even without the Hydra's Amulet or his innate power. The mere presence of his gaze sent ripples of fear through the air.

While the attack from the second phase of Dragon's Gaze itself hadn't become stronger, the aura of fear he exuded had intensified. Anyone facing Minos would now sense an almost palpable dread, making them hesitate.

His regenerative power, strength, reaction and movement speed, as well as his defensive abilities, had all improved at least twofold. He felt an invigorating rush as he tested his new limits, knowing he could withstand full attacks from high-level Sovereigns without relying on his skills or techniques.

His flame ability had also strengthened, and something told Minos that one of the special powers of the expert behind the seraphim's wings was flame-related. These were no ordinary flames. They burned the soul, soul fragments, or even spirits. Once touched by these orange flames, only a Supreme could hope to escape, and even then, not immediately. Such a person would need time to fight the flames to overcome them.

As Minos flexed his hands, he felt a new power course through him, a kind of communication power.

As he ignored the many seraphim around him, waiting for him to finish processing his changes, Minos couldn't help but notice that the plants and stones seemed to congratulate him.

'This ability is really strange... I feel like I can connect with the stones in the area and see what they've 'seen'. But it makes little sense to me.' Minos felt something like déjà vu, closing his eyes and seeing scenes similar to those that had happened to him during his three years there.

"You were lucky. You've absorbed Anak's main ability—All Things' Memory. This ability can connect you to sentient or non-sentient beings and make you feel, see, and hear what they have experienced. This is a mysterious ability, very useful for investigators, but also for anyone curious to understand the origins of something. With it, you can feel the history of everything around you!

I didn't expect anyone to inherit this power!" The Supreme said to Minos, reading the mind of the human before him.

"It seems special... But I still can't ignore the potential of the ability to read other people's minds. Are all seraphim like this?" Minos asked.

"Yes, hehe. But you, as you are now, can almost be considered one of us, Minos. Perhaps you'll awaken that power in the future. The seraphim's wings may release more of their former owner's powers as you advance one stage," the strongest seraph in the area explained in good humor.

"That would be great."

"Perhaps. Maybe not. Hearing everything everyone thinks can be disturbing... Anyway, what you saw with your new ability—All Things' Memory—were situations similar to yours. When we die and leave our wings behind, new generations absorb them.

"Perhaps. Maybe not. Hearing everything everyone thinks can be disturbing... Anyway, what you saw with your new ability—All Things' Memory—were situations similar to yours. When we die and leave our wings behind, new generations absorb them.

Not all of us can be reborn. The souls that were in the Spiritual World, at least some of them, sacrificed themselves before the extinction of our people in that world. They disappeared forever, their souls lost in the void. Others of us will die, leaving our wings behind and unable to reincarnate.

This was the case with Anak. When such a thing happens, we let precious individuals like you absorb those wings."

"I see. Well, thank you again for the opportunity." Minos gestured with his hands, smiling sincerely, but already thinking about his journey back to Zocarro.

"Hmm, good luck. I'll escort you out of this dimension." The level 120 seraphim led the way, shortly after Minos greeted everyone who had come to see him. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

On the way out of the dimension, the Supreme seraph warned him again. "Be careful. The one who brought you to us died facing Celestial without thrones. Don't make the same mistake he and others of us did. Avoid showing off as much as possible. The answer to success in cultivation may not be honorable. Sometimes hiding is the best thing to do."

"Hmm, I intend to do that." Minos smiled at the seraph. "I'm going to sort something out and return home. I'll spend the next 90 years cultivating at the headquarters of my sect."

"That's the best you can do. You'll have plenty of opportunities when you become a Supreme and go to your Celestial's dimension. Don't take any unnecessary risks."

Stopping in front of the spatial distortion Minos had passed through years ago, the seraph sighed as he saw the departure of yet another individual his tribe had helped in its long history.

"Time to go, Minos. Unfortunately, you don't have time to waste, otherwise I would have invited you to stay longer. Go ahead. I wish you success in your future wars."

"Hmm, thank you. I hope I can repay what I've received here. For now, I bid you farewell." Minos spoke with respect before continuing on his journey in his spaceship, venturing down a different path than the one he had taken thus far.

Considering his current location, he would be able to reach Zeta Draconis within a few weeks. Once there, he would have the chance to conduct a thorough search!

His improvements during his time in the Seraphim World were far beyond what he had expected for this journey. But he still had a lot to improve, and he believed that he would have a chance to deepen his dragon powers in Zeta Draconis.

He was at the peak of level 108. Considering how little he had seen of the planet of the rulers of that galaxy, he honestly saw a chance to reach level 109 by passing through it.

Would that be dangerous? There were always dangers for those who challenged the highest levels of cultivation. But Minos thought it would be worth it.

If all went well, he could easily surpass his promise to Tiolos for when they went to Uzira!
