While the hundreds of Spiritual Emperors in that cultivation room were trying to endure the disgusting smell of those toxins in Minos’ body, his body stopped releasing such impurities.

At that moment, every black drop in his body was repelled overnight from his skin as if it were oil in water. Meanwhile, Minos’ white skin again showed itself to those watching him.

This time, every inch of his body seemed to tremble as he experienced cellular control for the first time.

Upon reaching the 8th stage, a cultivator could modify their body by will, so their appearance could be changed. For example, an elder near their death could look as young as a newborn baby if they so wished.

But Minos had no interest in doing absurd things with his appearance. Thus, upon sensing this ability for a few moments, they quickly stabilized his body to its best version for his age.

In any case, even though his appearance did not change that much, he now had a more powerful regeneration factor. At the same time, his endurance, flexibility, and other characteristics became more powerful.

But while these changes were significant, the biggest one had occurred in the depths of his being, in his soul!

With the advance to the 8th stage, Minos’ soul had finally ‘blossomed’ and was now the same size as his body.

What was the importance of this? From that point on, his soul and body were no longer one but two different things living in one body.

This characteristic had several consequences, but one of the most notable was the fact that from this day forward, Minos would not be totally dependent on his body to continue living.

If something happened to him, he could continue to exist in his soul form temporarily. Also, if he lost his body, he could possess a new body to enable him to have all the experiences of someone with a fleshy body.

With such an impressive feature, this showed how fantastic the transformation from a Spiritual Emperor to a Spiritual Saint was!

And with this new quality of part of himself, plus the evolution of his Physique that was still going on, he could already feel a tremendous power in his body.

That was rapidly increasing, with Minos feeling as if the bonds of his Physique were loosening as if a ‘new him’ was about to be released.

“Ohhh!” With his eyes closed, he let out a sound of satisfaction. At the same time, he felt his Physique gradually reaching the Saint grade and the increase in energy due to his innate ability!

Previously he had a 20% energy increase due to his innate ability. But now that his Physique was almost finished rising to the next rank, Minos felt that his energy increase had passed 30% and was continuing to rise!

And while feeling all these sensations, Emperor Stuart quickly began to feel his compatibility with the Natural Laws increase, with a flow of invisible power penetrating his soul.

“Feel that! His Majesty is increasing his compatibility with the Laws!” One of the high-level Spiritual Saints outside that cultivation room said, making everyone there listen to him.

“Incredible! Minos’ understanding seems so dense that I feel as if my consciousness is floating on a boat in the middle of a grand ocean!” Maisie commented as she closed her eyes, feeling what was happening to her son with her soul probing.

Gloria, Ruth, and Abby also felt the changes in Minos as they had smiles on their faces.

Ruth then thought to herself. ‘Now that his Physique has reached the Saint grade, the chances of him getting me pregnant will increase considerably…’

Abby was also thinking of something similar since her biggest dream was to have children with Minos.

While Minos’ first two wives had similar thoughts regarding his advancement, Gloria was thinking about how he had reached the requirement to finalize the bet with her mother.

‘With this, perhaps we will achieve some benefits with my family to increase our influence within the Church…’

While Minos’ grandparents smiled in satisfaction and accepted the Gray Clouds Sect elders’ congratulations, the emperor of this state was finalizing his evolution.

He felt the increased compatibility of his soul with some of the Natural Laws, the space for a new technique arising in his being, and the evolution of his old techniques.

Such a thing was very comfortable, and it seemed as if he had finally gotten the answers to part of his questions regarding how to use his techniques. But for now, he only had the theory and would need to put these findings to the test to learn of his new capabilities.

‘I’m almost done…’ He thought.

At the same time, he felt that most of the spiritual medicine energy had already left his body. Now, it was circulating in the surroundings while the people there were absorbing it.

After another 15 minutes, all the energy of that Saint grade medicine left Minos’ body, and he felt the rating of his Physique stabilizing at Saint grade!

The evolution of his Physique greatly changed the quality of the cells in Minos’ body. To have an idea, this was so intense that if one were to compare his before and after, it would be as if he had changed species!

But besides the greatly strengthened physical characteristics, what had benefited most, there was Minos’ innate ability.

When the evolution finally ended, the increase in energy from spiritual cultivation had stopped increasing when it reached the 40% mark. At the same time that Minos’ energy reserves had increased significantly, he felt a sensation that reminded him of the last time he had evolved his Physique.

‘That…’ Minos looked down at his hands as he expressed surprise, sensing the auras of people throughout the headquarters’ cultivation tower and even people outside those headquarters facilities.

He felt as if each of those fluctuations had gained great compatibility with his own from one hour to the next. Or maybe it was better to say that his compatibility had synchronized with those people’s.

‘Uh? That… That feeling is as if…’ He finally understood what he had first felt when he reached level 50, and his mouth dropped open. “I can now manipulate the cultivation of those in my surroundings? How is that possible?” He wondered, while most people inside and outside that room were feeling strange because of his ability.

“That… What’s happening to Minos?” His grandmother asked Oswald.

“It seems he has awakened a new characteristic from his bloodline…” This old fellow commented, but without feeling the same as the other people there, because of his high cultivation and his own bloodline, which was not weak.

But then, someone there shouted as he felt Minos’ manipulation.

“Hey, my level is decreasing!” A person from the Gray Clouds Sect said in a tone of fear while turning pale.

On the other hand, Eduard, currently at level 67, felt his level increase to level 69 in the blink of an eye.

Because of this, he was just as or more shocked than the other individual, barely believing the sensation in his body.

“My level… Gulp! My level has increased?” He asked aloud.

The level 79 elder of the Gray Clouds Sect standing next to Oswald said. “Actually, his level has not increased. Minos seems to have transferred the power from that sect disciple to this army soldier.”

“That must be the case…” Other high-level Spiritual Saints agreed about this, while Minos himself felt the limits of his new characteristic.
