The Rise of the Black Plainchapter 2193: signal from the spatial ring

When everyone used their special devices, some had their speeds drastically reduced, while others had large protective barriers appear around them.

Others had their bodies suddenly teleported to lower altitudes and had their accelerations redirected to their new positions. While some continued to fall, they had their bodies fall slower and slower, something strange at first but quite possible considering their special devices.

The robots used their powers to create powerful attacks that could slow down their fall. Even though they couldn't fly temporarily, they used their advanced mathematical knowledge to save themselves from free fall.

One minute after leaving their spaceship, Minos' group saw the mainland coming closer and closer to them. At the same time, they narrowly managed to save themselves.

They still fell to the ground with great force, causing earth tremors where they fell and leaving them with bruises and broken bones all over their bodies.

They also lost most of their defenses, which they had to sacrifice to avoid dying in that magnificent fall that could endanger the lives of even high-level 10th-stage beings.

The robots and Maximillian helped Minos and Ruth, so they didn't suffer as much as some of their companions, even though they had fallen hard to the ground in the forest area they had reached.

Eventually, after all of them had fallen in different parts of this forest over an area of more than 8 square kilometers, the least injured of the group climbed out of their craters and began to help the others.

Minos and Ruth left the hole they had fallen into together, both showing pain on their faces but making no strange sounds.

He and she looked around and saw a forest with trees completely different from those in the Spiritual World, a pink sky, and small organisms that looked like insects.

"What is this place?" Ruth murmured in a low voice. One of the robots near them heard this. "I can't answer that. There's no data on this place in my system. I'm afraid we've fallen into a world far from The Adamant Land."

Ruth heard this and looked at Minos as she heard the voices of her companions nearby, several individuals searching for the many members of their crew.

Minos narrowed his eyes as he surveyed his surroundings, too exhausted to use his powers there. But amid his worry, he felt something tremble inside his spatial ring.

'Hm?' He looked at one of his hands and felt what was shaking. 'This...'

'Isn't that the artifact Fah'um of Dunov left me?' Minos wondered, feeling that he could finally find out what this magnificent object was that the ancient being of his world had left behind.

He didn't summon it from his spatial ring right away because he was too exhausted to do such a thing with something as great as this ancient artifact.

Minos then asked about the level 97 robot beside him and Ruth. "Why couldn't we fly before? Are our powers compatible with the absorbable energy one of you mentioned earlier?"

Maximillian heard as he left his crater. "Are you afraid that we won't be able to use our powers in this place?"

"Yes. I believe some places in the universe have different rules, and the forms of power from one place won't necessarily work everywhere." Minos told the guy before turning his attention to the robot that seemed to be checking out the place where they were.

Then one of the other robots approached that spot along with some other crew members from that group and said. "That doesn't seem to be the case. I feel that the energy here is compatible with all of us, which shouldn't have caused our inability to fly earlier."

The robot beside Minos said. "The gravity here is 10 times stronger than in the Spiritual World's and 7.9 times stronger than in The Adamant Land's gravity. In addition, we were at a high altitude, which would normally make it difficult for beings like us to fly in any world. Finally, we are exhausted because of what we went through before arriving here, so our capacities are temporarily reduced.

That all explains the difficulty we had in getting here, Your Majesty." The robot concluded. "But after some rest and adjustment, we should be able to fly and use our abilities as before."

The level 98 robot came over and disagreed. "Maybe we can use our powers at an even higher level after we recover and adapt to this place. I feel that the power of this world is much purer and easier to absorb than in the Spiritual World.

Since the density of free natural energy here seems to be more than 30 times what we could find on the Divine Continent of the Spiritual World, I believe our powers here will be more destructive than they were on that planet."

Maximillian listened with interest while Minos, Ruth, and the rest of the crew sighed with relief.

They could imagine that if this planet was so good for cultivating, then there would certainly be powerful beings there. That could be dangerous for newcomers like them. But it was a relief to be able to rely on their own abilities.

One of the robots analyzed this place while the group gathered where Minos was. "According to my estimates, this planet is six times the size of the Spiritual World. As for the presence of living beings, there is a 99.8% probability that there are beings here who are able to cultivate and reach level 100.

I can't say for sure how many beings there are on this planet or if there are any powerful beings around. Considering the size of this world, powerful beings could be anywhere out of my reach."

"What is more certain is that we could encounter powerful beings at any time." The strongest robot commented, looking at Minos. "We must recover as quickly as possible, Your Majesty."

All who were already nearby agreed.

Then Minos said. "Very well, the less injured of the group will observe the surroundings, support the more injured, and find our spaceship. The others should concentrate on recovering and cultivating the special energy of this world.

The group quickly divided into two groups, with about 30 people sitting close together on cultivation pillows while the others split up to take care of the tasks Minos had set out.

Half of the group that wouldn't be cultivating for the time being would stay to observe the surroundings or help treat the most injured.

Meanwhile, the other half would split up to go after their spaceship but also to explore the surroundings a bit.

There were many trees around, so perhaps there would be fruit for them to pick and judge whether it was edible. Finding a source of water was also important, as any kind of spiritual product depended on water to some degree.

In the group, there were blacksmiths, alchemists, doctors, poison masters, array masters, and so on. So, the group could produce a lot of things for their own use, which, of course, depended on materials and ingredients, some of which had to come from this world.

They had brought a lot of things from the Spiritual World with them, but when they realized that the place where they had accidentally arrived was rich and compatible with them, they couldn't let go of the idea of using local resources in their products.

Soon, more than 50 people were working around the forest where they had arrived, a place where there didn't seem to be any powerful beings around.
