As Minos, Shannon's envoy, and Oswald were flying through the first few miles of the Flaming Empire, looking for a good place to stop and rest, suddenly, someone appeared before them.

But this person was no stranger, nor had he seen Minos in a long time!

When Queen Mcbride appeared in front of his group, Minos frowned, while Oswald opened his mouth in shock, seeing someone so powerful for the first time in his life.

"Your Majesty Hannah, what is the meaning of this?" Minos stood at the head of his group while the woman accompanying them made a respectful gesture to that beautiful Spiritual Demigod.

The women at the border were also watching the situation, while the level 85 Spiritual Sage had her eyes narrowed, not understanding why this level 93 woman appeared in their way.

Hannah looked into Minos' eyes and caused the pressure on him to increase considerably, to the point where he couldn't see anything else in the surroundings.

Suddenly, he found himself in a place totally different from the one he was in, a place with no trees or natural effects, totally surrounded by purple clouds, with an endless sunset.

In that place, Hannah Mcbride was sitting on a gigantic throne made of clouds, looking at him as if she were a giant in front of a mere insect.

She watched him silently for a moment and asked. "Minos, you are under my judgment of truth. If you lie, I will kill you here and now."

Gulp!

Spiritual Demigods could use the domain of their avatars in such a way that reading the feelings and even seeing part of a target's memories would not be impossible.

Of course, this was something that varied from expert to expert, target to target. Each person had their own particularities, so some could see all the secrets of others when using this ability, while others would have difficulty doing the same.

In any case, Minos knew that this woman would notice if he lied, and he found himself threatened by a peak specialist of this world for the first time in his life.

He swallowed his saliva and asked. "What does Your Majesty wish to know? I thought we were settled when I left the capital a few minutes ago."

"Ah, our matters concerning my daughters' challenges to you have been settled. I am not here to take revenge or force you into anything related to that." Hannah said sincerely. "I just want to know how you got that wild feeling from before. You didn't have that, and I can tell you that it would be impossible to connect that to just your black hole."

Minos clenched his fists and decided to tell the truth to avoid getting into bigger trouble, even though the truth itself was a problem. "Does Your Majesty know about the giant bones sealed around the Spiritual World? The skeletons of the primordial beings of the spiritual races?"

Some of those who understood the least about the giant bones of this world but who knew about their existence associated these beings with the emergence of the spiritual races existing today.

For them, at some point in the remote past, there were no members of the race, for example, spiritual humans, but rather beings unable to cultivate.

However, cultivators with bodies similar to these mortals appeared, later giving rise to half-breeds capable of cultivation but with powers far inferior to those of their creators.

These cultivators were supposedly the smaller versions of the owners of these bones, individuals who, amid a catastrophe, had decided to save part of their history by passing on their genetic code to weaker beings.historical

The evidence that these people used as proof that these giant skeletons belonged to the primordials of the most powerful races of this world was the existence of the Soul Avatars.

Why did the avatar show a similar version of the cultivator's body but in a giant version? No one understood for sure since strength and power were not entirely related to size.

Some of the biggest beings in the spiritual world were totally harmless to most others!

But even so, cultivators' true form came precisely through their soul projection...

For these theorists, this was the connection between primordial beings and humans, which is why these bones are known as the forerunners of many races existing today.

Hannah knew about this story of the primordials, even though she didn't know any of the giant skeletons since they were all properly sealed in hard-to-reach or protected locations.

Even Spiritual Demigods like Hannah didn't know much about them or their locations.

"Yes, I know." She said, frowning her eyebrows.

"Well, I got that by using my innate ability on one of those giant skeletons. I was able to steal some of the powers from one of them and use that to temper my soul." Minos said, telling the truth but without revealing all the important points. "It improved my understanding of several Natural Laws, gave me a higher cultivation speed, and improved my instincts."

"Oh? Is that really true?" She asked this with interest, realizing that he wasn't lying. "So you have one of those skeletons? Do you have it in your spatial ring?"

"No, it's too big to contain in a spatial ring. I have a location in the northern region where one of them is sealed."

"And how did you cultivate with that thing while you were inside that black hole?" She frowned her eyebrows.

Minos said. "I used a teleportation array and went to that skeleton."

That was no lie and connected well with the truth about him having giant bones in the northern region!

Once again, Hannah faced Minos' sincerity and was not suspicious. "So that was it... You were very clever indeed.

But can you do that? The legends say that the skeletons of the primordials were so powerful that even peak cultivators of the Spiritual World would have difficulty even probing them."

Minos replied. "I disagree. Those skeletons are really amazing, but they are not that difficult to probe if you have the proper innate ability.

I've thought something similar to you in the past as if they were from a different reality than ours. But I just didn't have the skills that I have today. And through this, I feel that high-level people with high-quality Physiques and innate abilities compatible with these bones can do things with them, as I did.

Maybe not exactly the same, but use them in some way."

"So that's it... It depends on the skill." She put her fingers on her face.

There were more and fewer functional innate abilities. But, at the same time, these abilities could be much better or much worse, depending on the quality.

If someone could see into the future, this ability could be useful to the extent that they could dream about things that would happen in the distant future or have the ability to predict the movements of an opponent in a fight.

That could change by that person's Physique rating.

As someone who knew of the endless possibilities behind innate abilities, Queen Mcbride didn't find Minos' response so unreasonable or even arrogant.

"Very well, I believe you. But since we are relating well, could you show me one of these skeletons? I won't ask you for anything more, and I'll still do you a favor when you need it." She said, lessening the pressure on Minos as the surroundings slowly changed.

"That can be solved..."
