Chapter 2805 Final Evolution


    Minos was the first to begin his integration and, as expected, he was the fastest of his group to finish the process.


    Having done something simr other times in the past, he connected the silver needle with golden inscriptions in ce of one of the bones in one of his hands, gaining a lot in the process.


    The body part of a True Celestial integrated perfectly with Minos, causing his cultivation to rise to the peak of level 121. Even though he wasn''t able to break through his current limit, he reached the peak of that level, one step away from bing a true level 122 cultivator.


    In addition to the improvement in terms of spiritual power, Minos'' main gain was a new skill, as well as the strengthening of the Incorruptible Heart, Nautilus'' Compass, and Infernal Crown skills.


    His previous powers strengthened to the point of practically doubling their qualities, while he acquired a new power, one rted to attacking. The needle he absorbed basically strengthened Minos'' entire body to a whole new level, something that would make even Celestial Dragons envious of him.


    But besides Minos'' current physical strength, quality, and endurance, he had got an ability capable of creating weapons with the same characteristics as his body.


    As Minos emerged from his brief meditation, he toyed with his newly acquired power. With a subtle movement of his fingers, diminutive silver spheres materialized around him, arranging themselves in intricate patterns. At his silentmand, they vanished from their original positions, reappearing at his designated target. In their wake, they left a trail of mes, earthen upheaval, and utter destruction.


    The sheer velocity and potency of this ability caught even Minos off guard, exceeding his initial expectations.


    "That…" he began, realizing the potential danger to hispanions. Without hesitation, he sprang into action.


    Channeling a massive surge of energy, an enormous hourss materialized behind him as he manipted the flow of time to suit his needs.


    The 12 observing corpses gaped in astonishment as they witnessed time rewinding for Minos'' women and the area ravaged by the silver arrows.


    Each projectile retraced its path, returning to its point of origin. As the temporal reversal concluded, Minos beckoned his creations to coalesce in his palm.


    This time, he exercised far greater caution to avoid unintended destruction… N?v(el)B\\jnn


    ''Wonderful!'' he mused. ''At first nce, it seems unremarkable. In fact, it bears a striking resemnce to Gloria''s mercury ability…'' A twinge of regret passed through him, wishing he could have given this artifact to his red-haired wife instead.


    As much as he could have given Gloria the needle and the mask, he didn''t, and he didn''t regret it. He was just a bit unhappy about the fact that they hadn''t been more fortunate to get more itemspatible with him.


    But he needed to absorb as many body parts of True Celestials as possible or he''d be in trouble. As such, after a moment, Minos put his frustrations aside, appreciating the power of his newponent.


    ''I''ll probably advance to level 123 when I get my next True Celestial body part.''


    As he thought about the future, Abby opened her eyes after finishing absorbing the chest armor.


    Unlike Minos, Abby had advanced one level stronger, reaching level 122, maintaining the advantage in terms of cultivation that she had achieved against him in their time in Hell.


    As well as improving her powers, she also got a skill, strengthened an old ability and, perhaps most importantly, advanced her Physique to the Celestial grade!


    Apart from Ruth, none of the other women of Minos had reached the Celestial grade so far. But after absorbing the second part of a True Celestial herself, Abbypleted all the missing requirements, immediately feeling her innate ability regarding nerve control, rise to a new level.


    ''That feeling...'' She frowned, seeing that she could do much more than use her ability to reduce pain, to inhibit certain impulses, to stimte other impulses in her targets. She felt she could control one to such an extent that temporarily making them stronger wouldn''t be impossible.


    She used two of her Hell Lifelings as guinea pigs, making one of them feel a neural change that made him feel different, while the other continued without any help. By making the two sides face each other, Abby, and Minos saw how the side helped by her, even though it was one level weaker than the other, quickly gained the upper hand in the fight, forcing the opponent into a passive situation.


    "That was impressive," Minos said as he approached his level 122 wife. "With a skill like that, we''ll be able to make our soldiers fight at even higher levels. Is there a problem with this skill?"


    "No. The only problem is that itsts as long as the temporary strength enhancements you''re able to give your targets." Abby quickly assessed her own ability. "But that''s a power that can stack with other support skills, like yours." She said suggestively.


    "That''s good to know." He smiled at her.


    "Apart from that, I''ve gained a defensive skill. As much as it''s focused on protecting my body, I can project defensive shields in front of my targets." She gestured towards her chest, where her ribs had given way to the body part she had absorbed.


    "That''s great. This will be crucial if we are to escape from Qhava and the other Devils. What level of protection do these shields have now?" he asked her.


    "It must be the peak of the 12th stage. Maybe they can withstand a weak attack from someone newly promoted to the 13th stage."


    That was enough to impress even Minos!


    The difference between Celestials and Supremes was gigantic, after all!


    As the two chatted about their improvements, Ruth showed signs of finishing her absorption, leaving the signs of pain behind, while her strength rose exponentially.


    Minos, in particr, felt exactly how much Ruth had improved because of the connection between them originating from her crown.


    Ruth opened her eyes at the beginning of level 121, with a new ability at her disposal, one different from the one Minos had acquired with the Incorruptible Heart.


    Instead of the Incorruptible Heart, Ruth got the Warrior Core, which gave her an ability to fight beyond her limits, being able to maintain her peak condition, even with mortal damage.


    She was already at the Celestial grade of her Physique, so nothing changed about that. Even so, all her skills, senses and methods improved, including her ability to help herpanions with her regenerative power!
