The group understood where they were and what the common inheritances in Uzira were, given Wenni and Walkas' explanations.
As soon as they confirmed they were the only living beings inside this space, as large as the Spatial Kingdom that Minos had inherited from Henricus Longus, they returned those two corpses to their urns. It was not yet time to waste their scarce time.
Minos kept the group together, although his companions' moods changed noticeably as they came to understand the area better. Following his instincts, he led the group to one ruin at the base of the mountain, where a small altar and obelisk stood in the center of it.
As soon as his entire group stopped near the obelisk, a spiritual change took place in the glowing item in that place, revealing a spiritual form in a humanoid body.
When they saw the figure of a 4-meter-tall woman with long black hair forming, they all turned their eyes to her, who was clearly a native of Uzira.
This was a spiritual projection, but even so, the group felt as if they were face to face with a living expert in their prime, with an aura of incredible level 124!
"A large group, I see," said the semi-transparent figure as she looked at the over twenty individuals, registering in her mind the particularities of each one of them.
"A large group of foreigners, I think. Hardly any natives of my home planet..."
Minos and the others were worried by her words. Even though she was speaking a different language to the ones they knew, they understood her.
Without worrying about how it was happening, they were more interested in where her words would take them.When her gaze landed on Minos, the enormous woman's eyes narrowed. "You... Hmm, I see. It's no wonder that a group of invaders with such numbers have arrived on my continent."
Minos didn't understand what she had realized, but he introduced himself. "Senior, I am Minos Stuart. I'm a native of a distant world, called by its natives the Spiritual World. I know Uzira is a continent closed to foreigners, but my group isn't here with plans to destabilize Uzira. We are cultivators with plans to cultivate and take advantage of local opportunities, and that is it."
"What you want and what you say are contrasting things by nature. It's impossible for you to take advantage of anything here without bringing chaos and instability," she said, but her voice didn't seem to carry a strong desire to stand against them.
Minos and his companions didn't despair, realizing that they could somehow reach an agreement there.
"However, since you have found the entrance to my pocket dimension, you must be destined to be my representative in Uzira. I will trust the result you and your companions have in my inheritance.
If you survive the tests, I will allow you to experience all the opportunities you can grasp for yourselves while you are here, and I will even open doors to the exit from my dimension.
You have my word that I will honor this promise.
However, in order to do so, you must all agree to pass at least one challenge from my inheritance."
"What exactly is that, senior?" Tiolos asked.
"This pocket dimension results from a long and distant part of Uzira's history. This was once the headquarters of one of the strongest forces on the continent, destroyed long ago.
It had 15 mountains in its headquarters, and in each of them there was a faction. Today, there are only 15 ruins left, but each one has its own challenges and opportunities.
The place where you are is the main ruin and also the most dangerous. The opportunities are proportional to their dangers, so be aware before making your choices.
There's no need to do just one challenge. If one of you is brave enough to do them all, feel free to go ahead with your ambitious thoughts. There's also no need to complete all the challenges at once. You can go slowly or quickly. That's your choice.
But I do require that at least each of the mountains be challenged once before the end of your time here. Until you fulfill it, I will keep you trapped in my dimension indefinitely."
With her words, the spatial distortion through which they had passed closed, trapping them in this alternative space, impossible to enter and exit without her authorization for even high-level Supremes!
Certain that they would not escape from this place, they had no choice but to face the games left behind by that enormous woman.
She finished explaining. "The space outside the ruins is safe and you can use it to rest, cultivate and even live your lives if you choose not to complete all my requirements. There are no creatures to put you in danger and I won't act against you, either.
However, I would like to warn you. You will not find food or anything else consumable outside the ruins. If you even want water, challenge the ruins and you'll get your chance.
To challenge a ruin, just use a drop of your blood on those glowing structures around my pocket dimension. You'll know how to proceed with each challenge after this little ritual." She finished explaining, pointing to the glowing obelisk next to her.
"What level of difficulty are those challenges?" someone asked curiously.
They were interested in seizing opportunities there, so for the moment, although alarmed, they still weren't too worried about being held there for a long time.
"All challenges are for Supremes." She revealed, making even Minos and his strongest companions feel a little more pressure on their shoulders.
'Supreme level challenges?' Minos laughed bitterly at hearing such a thing.
As far as his group was from reaching that level, several of them would still need several years of cultivation to get there!
"And you can't use the parasites in your bodies. I feel a disturbing energy from them that makes me sick. I'll make sure your parasites are sealed away when you get through your challenges." With these words, she ended her presentation of the group's situation, leaving them in the difficult position that was this inheritance.
"It looks like we'll have to invest in a long seclusion in this place." Abby murmured with a green smile on her beautiful face.
