The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2549  Omicron Aquarii

The 19-month journey between the Artificial Moon and Omicron Aquarii would pass quickly.

Minos spent most of that time cultivating in seclusion, not worrying about the route or the dangers of the journey.

The crew behind the small ship that arrived at Omicron Aquarii was many times stronger than he could face. If something dangerous came their way, it wouldn't make any difference for him to get involved.

But fortunately, the crew transporting Minos didn't face any challenges during these months. Few 12th stage beings traveled the universe, so apart from the natural problems of space, ambushes or pirate actions would hardly affect a crew like his.

In 19 months, they had made the entire journey between their starting point and their destination, entering the galaxy today, traveling at high speed, slowly slowing down, already with their last stop in mind.

In an hour at the most, they would arrive at the disembarkation station, the end point of this journey.

By this time, all the passengers had already been duly warned of the group's arrival at their destination, in their cabins, seated and with their seat belts properly fastened, prepared for the upcoming slowdown.

Minos had already left his cultivation room and was waiting to disembark, eager for the last leg of the journey.

According to the seraph's soul fragment, he should reach his destination galaxy in no more than another year's journey.

So Minos waited until the end of the remaining hour of travel, when the starship slowed down, causing all passengers and crew to experience one minute of extreme deceleration, enough to knock out anyone who wasn't prepared.

Minos and all the passengers were very used to these effects. After 10 minutes, the ship docked at a spaceport and landing signals appeared all around the ship.

Leaving his cabin, Minos moved on, unhurried but anxious to reach the boarding terminal where he would buy his next tickets.

At the exit of the ship, he greeted some aliens, people he had met a few times in the last months, and even greeted some of the crew.

As soon as he left the landing platform, he saw the neon signs around this part of the station. The compound was well signposted, with many weaker aliens coming and going, several ships disembarking at the same time as his.

Although there wasn't much movement from the Artificial Moon to here, there was a lot of internal movement within this galaxy, and also connecting the higher worlds in the area with weaker worlds in other parts of the universe.

Minos would have to dodge many creatures on his way and would not encounter many Supremes. As in Zocarro, 12th stage specialists were difficult to find.

Apart from the captains of a few spaceships, there was no one so strong that he had to be careful.

He soon arrived at the ticket counter, where he waited a mere 20 minutes before his turn came.

"Hi, I'd like a ticket to the Fern Leaf Nebula." Minos got straight to the point, looking expectantly at the creature in front of him.

"Fern Leaf Nebula? We have two options for the traveler. One, wait 22 months for the next group that will go directly to the Fern Leaf Nebula, or leave in a month with the group going to Zeta Draconis." The alien on the other side of the counter explained.

"Zeta Draconis? From there I can go to the Fern Leaf Nebula?" Minos asked, not knowing much about the galaxies that existed in this quadrant of the universe.

"Yes, Zeta Draconis is a powerful and large galaxy nine months away from our position. A dynasty allied with the rulers of the Fern Leaf Nebula rules Zeta Draconis, so you will find groups there to take you to your destination. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The journey between Zeta Draconis and the Fern Leaf Nebula should take about 6 months. However, there are the waiting times between these posts and the travel, as well as the cost."

The alien looked at Minos for a moment in silence, giving the human time to think about what to do.

"What would you prefer? It will be faster to go via Zeta Draconis, but it will also be more expensive and more dangerous. Zeta Draconis is the home of the Divine Dragons."

"I'll go to Zeta Draconis. Thanks for the recommendation." Minos decided before hearing the price of the ticket and a few more recommendations.

After picking up his ticket and thanking the man, he made his way to an area where he could wait for his next ship to cultivate.

A month passed quickly for the current Minos. However, with his temporal powers, he could make time pass differently for him, and he could enjoy much more time while cultivating.

He had used some of his temporal powers on his family and faction members, so they had grown rapidly during his stay in Armhands. Having done this to himself during his trip to this galaxy, and now in this month of cultivation, Minos would experience much more cultivation time than he should have.

The downside was the consumption of his vital energy. But he wasn't worried about losing years of his life expectancy.

There were only two possible fates for Minos. Either to fail and die long before his life expectancy expired, or to succeed in all the challenges and inherit the position of Celestial in the Upper Realm.

If the second option was his destiny, he could live forever, so his current vitality didn't matter. If the first option was what would happen, then his vitality wouldn't matter either.

With this in mind, he would experience five months of cultivation in just one, soon arriving at the moment of his departure from Omicron Aquarii.

...

After leaving the cultivation area where he had spent the past few weeks in seclusion, Minos made his way to the boarding station, his cultivation already halfway to level 106.

If he continued to cultivate as he had been doing for the past few months, he could reach level 107 by the time he had to enter the Seraphim World!

Without worrying about his cultivation speed, he boarded the spaceship to Zeta Draconis, somewhat curious about the Divine Dragon's Galaxy.

Apart from the dragons of the Spiritual World, he had never seen an actual dragon in his travels through the universe. But considering the origins of the dragons of his world—related to Panvuter—Minos was curious about the Divine Dragons and their connection to the rest of the dragons of the universe.
