Chapter 2654 Beginning of the Journey Through Oqia


    As Vico looked in Callie''s and Cykog''s direction, they spotted the group''s strongestpanion.


    Callie sighed in relief, seeing that they could leave this to return to Zocarro atst.


    Cykog had a sad look on his face, having taken quite a few beatings from Callie during the journey here. He had been hit three times to calm down and realized that if she hadn''t woken him up, he would have been left behind and missed the chance to go to Zocarro.


    That would have been terrible for him, since, even though he had improved a lot in those 50 years, he was already finding it difficult to advance locally.


    Even though he understood her movement, he was carrying some injuries, with aches and pains here and there as he flew alongside this decisive woman.


    The level 114 Sovereign looked at the ck bruises around the dragon''s body and understood this guy''s situation. But he justughed, notmenting on the matter.


    "I''m d you''ve finished your seclusion. When can we leave? Is everyone here?" Callie asked as she approached Vico and the local leader.


    "Can we leave tomorrow?" Vico looked at the level 114 Sovereign in doubt.


    "Certainly. My men are ready and your group is ready, too." He said with a nod of his head. "If you''re really determined, I can make the preparations. In the meantime, meet up with the rest of your group."


    "We thank the senior." Callie and Vico said while Cykog made a hand gesture, already in his humanoid form.


    They separated, while sending out signals inviting theirpanions toe to them.


    ''Time to leave for Zocarro... I wonder how Minos is doing?'' Cykog remembered that guy, imagining that this human was even stronger than Callie and Vico.


    Soon all 24 of their group mates, not counting the two natives of The Enchanted Realm who would join them, would meet to talk about their imminent departure.


    It was time for everyone to prepare for thest leg of their journey to Zocarro!


    ...


    After the group meeting, time passed and 26 individuals set off from The Enchanted Realm, traveling to the station from where they would catch a spaceship to take them to the Artificial Moon.


    There, they would spend a few months waiting for transportation, before beginning the most dangerous part of the space journey to Zocarro.


    But their group was much stronger than before and had many methods of dealing with problems that might bother them.


    For the next few years, they would continue cultivating, training and fighting opponents, until they reached the Artificial Moon, a ce in itself far superior to The Enchanted Realm.


    On the Artificial Moon, it would take them almost two whole years to make their way to the ind connected to the artificial structure. Given therge number of members in the group, the travel time would be much longer than any interval Minos had needed on his journeys across the Artificial Moon.


    But the group would eventually enter Zocarro, where they would spend another six months on that inlet ind, before facing the dangerous sea ahead, using a crew that Minos''panions already knew.


    This journey would be even more dangerous than the years of space travel, but with an experienced and powerful crew, they would reach the northern tip of Oqia in one piece!


    On this day, exactly 60 years-for them-since they left the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land, the group set foot in Oqia, the northernmost city on the continent. N?v(el)B\\jnn


    Before moving on to the central region, in particr Examire, they had to make a stop to get information and for some members of the group to move on again!


    ...


    After three months after arriving in Oqia, the group was preparing to leave for Examire.


    Vico and Callie had already got all the information they wanted in the city they were in and, given the time they had been in Zocarro, everyone''s cultivation had stabilized to the''s standards.


    Even though several of them hadn''t advanced in level since leaving The Enchanted Realm, they were much stronger than they had been back then.


    But the group''sst days in this city in the far north were spent waiting for three individuals to seize opportunities for advancement.


    After years of hard work, Cykog had recovered the damage caused by Callie, strengthened his cultivation base and was now finishing his advance to level 105!


    Meanwhile, outside the cultivation room where he was, Lizzie had recentlye out of seclusion, having reached level 100!


    Besides her, Zoe had also made a small improvement, advancing one level.


    Otherwise, they all needed a little more time for level improvements, although several were close to the peak of their levels.


    Surely many of them would improve before they reached Examire!


    However, only Cykog could still do so in this city!


    After weeks of cultivating in seclusion, his aura increased, and he opened his eyes, entering the middle range of the 11th stage.


    As he left his cultivation site, he ran into Vico, who was just waiting for him to lead the rest of the group towards the central region.


    "Congrattions on your progress. Now it''s time to leave. Follow me." The blond man said to the dragon in his humanoid form, with long, dark red hair.


    Cykog followed behind Vico smoothly, eager to test his powers in this powerful world.


    "How long has it been for Minos and the others since you two left, Vico?" Cykog asked on the way to the rest of the group.


    "It''s hard to pinpoint. We''ve passed through several areas that have different passages of time. For example, the two years we spent between the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land must have been eight years for ourpanions in Zocarro. Meanwhile, the 50 years in The Enchanted Realm was something like 5 years.


    We traveled through space for about 12 years, considering the round trip, a period that I don''t know how long exactly passed for ourpanions here in this world. We also spent around 5 years waiting at staging posts and traveled through Oqia for 3 years. Considering the 3 years of travel ahead of us, I imagine the answer you''re looking for is between 36 and 55 years."


    "I see... So what level should Minos be at now?"


    Vico smiled as he looked at the dragon. "Probably level 110. As for his strength, I imagine we''ll never be able to keep up with him."
