As they flew toward the lake, gradually losing altitude, Minos and his group soon realized something was wrong with this place.

Aside from the magnificent lake and the frightening spatial distortions on the sides of this large area, this whole space seemed to have gone through some kind of catastrophic event.

More than half of the trees in the area had fallen, with many dead leaves on them. At the same time, the hills and rocks devoid of vegetation were broken, as if a powerful earthquake had struck this place.

However, as much as earthquakes existed in the Spiritual World, such phenomena were impossible in dimensional realms.

Even in this flawed place, an earthquake of that magnitude could not happen!

Realizing this, Forrest narrowed his eyes and tried to scan the surroundings to find out what had happened there.

As he did so, he noticed the remains of a wooden creature.

"Someone powerful has passed or is here." He commented to his group. "The wooden dragon of this space pocket was completely annihilated a short time ago."

"What? Who would do that?" Abby exclaimed when she heard such nonsense. "Our men said that no high-level Demigods have entered this Spatial Kingdom."

"And they didn't." The second strongest Demigod in Forrest's group said. "The strongest to enter this Spatial Kingdom in this event was a level 94 Demigod."

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "Then how do you explain that?" Ruth asked.

"That could have been done by the Sky Whale that entered that Spatial Kingdom," Minos muttered, knowing that no 10-stage dragon had entered this space, but on the other hand, a being of that race would not destroy the guardian of this space.

Forrest agreed with Minos. "We have to consider that there is a Sky Whale in this place. So, people, don't insult this beast. A confrontation with it would not end well for us."

Even with Minos' abilities, his union with Abby, or even Forrest's own powers, this level 93 Demigod didn't think his group could survive a confrontation with such a creature.

Even Minos had no hope and said. "If we meet him, we must be respectful and do our best not to offend him. If he decides to act against us, our journey will be over."

Gulp!

Harold and the hybrid of Minos' group swallowed their saliva, feeling the same level of awe and respect for this creature as they did for mid- and high-level Demigods.historical

However, the presence of this creature in this pocket of space was not the end of the world for them.

Minos said. "Anyway, as long as we don't interfere in his affairs, everything should be fine. After all, Sky Whales don't go around looking for trouble, and they usually give their opponents a chance before they move."

Elves were the most arrogant creatures in the Spiritual World, followed by dragons and then phoenixes. Sky Whales were not even in the top ten of the most arrogant species and were even more quiet and humble than humans.

Knowing this, Minos felt that it was worth it for them to continue in this pocket of space, even with the possibility of encountering this creature.

"Let's look at the bright side." The weakest Demigod of the group commented. "At least we will find less trouble here. That Sky Whale used his powers here and probably killed all or most of the creatures that could cause us trouble.I think you should take a look at

Now, all we have to do is collect what he left behind."

This was indeed the truth. When the Sky Whale acted in this place a few weeks ago, all the creatures below level 90 died along with the wooden dragon, while only the strongest vegetation in the area survived the 'tsunami' and the earthquake.

Other groups like theirs would not dare to do anything conspicuous with the possibility of such a might beast still being in that pocket of space, so even disputes with other participants in the event would be unlikely.

Minos said. "Let's get started. I want to collect as many items as possible in the next few days to go into seclusion in this place. There will be no other place as safe as this for us to cultivate in peace for the short term."

Everyone agreed, and soon, the group was moving along on the ground, no longer flying, so as not to attract unnecessary attention from potential competitors or even the whale that was supposed to be in that lake.

...

Meanwhile, in the depths of the lake, which was so large that it looked like a small sea, in the darkness of that area, 500 meters deep, a gigantic whale opened its eyes and looked up.

'Another group? But this one is just as weak as that one. None of them would dare disturb my sleep...' He thought momentarily before closing his eyes and falling asleep again, digesting the many resources he had eaten weeks ago.

...

Meanwhile, in another part of that pocket of space, a group of humans from the western region of the Central Continent stood near a temple where several high-level artifacts were scattered around.

In particular, a high-level grade-4 weapon was embedded in a square stone, available to anyone with the will and power to come and try to take it.

This weapon was an axe, but it was pretty large, with a blade the size of a human house and a handle over 30 meters long.

This was obviously no ordinary weapon!

In that area, one of the humans in the group, with his Soul Avatar fully activated, had his two hands on that weapon, trying to lift it off the ground and return it to its normal size.

Weapons of such a high level could be manipulated by their wielder to increase in size along with the Soul Avatar of the wielder. However, if the owner of such a weapon did not decrease or increase the size of the weapon, it would remain in the same state until someone changed it.

In the case of this weapon, there was a legend that a powerful dragon had stolen it from a human in the past and placed it in this temple to train its descendants.

To manipulate it, one would have to reach a high level of understanding. If one did not have a deep understanding of how the world worked, it would be impossible to master this weapon.

Unfortunately, such descendants could not be encouraged to strive to become stronger to conquer this weapon because this Spatial Kingdom was damaged soon after it arrived there.

After this catastrophe, only a few people knew about this story, and even fewer were lucky enough to find this temple and try their luck there.

One could not control where one went when passing through any of the portals of this Spatial Kingdom, and those who knew about this weapon did not talk about it to others.

"Damn it! This is too heavy! It's impossible to move this weapon!" The level 92 Demigod trying to conquer it said as he finally gave up on taking this weapon to his home state of Mairin.
