There are 4 million high-grade crystals here, about 50 different kinds of Saint-grade medicines, more than 50 high-level grade-4 artifacts, 7 Golden-grade techniques, 2 bottles of Spring of Life... Some maps of the Spiritual World, especially the Continent of Beasts...'
Minos said in his mental communication with his wives, presenting them with the numbers of the riches he had just acquired.
There were many things there that were not useful to dragons. But things that were valuable to humans and other races had their value to every being in this world. As long as you could barter, any kind of currency was valuable!
There were also many documents and books there, things that Minos would eventually have his men of the Black Plain Army study and catalog.
Depending on what they contained, they could help him with his plans for the Central Continent and the rest of the Spiritual World!
'Besides, there are many valuable things here. For example, phoenix feathers and dragon teeth.' He said to them, causing them to look at him wide-eyed.
This was all very valuable!
"This is fantastic!" Gloria commented.
Isabella then said. "With these resources, the empire will surely have enough to develop and create its first squad of Demigods...' Isabella said. "But Minos, is there anything we can use now? It would be nice if we could protect or strengthen ourselves with it.
Minos nodded positively. "Yes, some arrays, pills, and medicines could be useful for us.
He looked at Ruth and said. "I have something here that is compatible with you. You are close to improving the quality of your Physique, right?"
They all looked at Ruth as she nodded very eagerly. "Yes. Even a Saint-grade medicine can help me evolve qualitatively."
Physique evolution was utterly different from the evolution from level 99 to level 100.
To cultivate from level 99 to level 100, one would have to increase one's strength about 11 times in a short period.
It was impossible to do this without a Divine-grade medicine because nothing but such a medicine contained so much energy AVAILABLE for absorption.
There was even a lot of free energy and laws in the world, but a Demigod's power was INSUFFICIENT to achieve everything they needed. The only way they could achieve what they needed was through Divine-grade Medicine.
But for the Physique, things were a little different. Typically, one would upgrade one's Physique to the Divine grade at the same time as trying to reach level 100.
The power of Divine Medicine was sufficient for both advancements.
However, the Physique evolution required much less energy and laws than the cultivation evolution.
The problem was that an ordinary person's Physique could only be improved once in a lifetime and that one time was just one chance, not several attempts. If one failed to improve one's Physique, one would be limited to that quality forever!
On the other hand, one could not simply combine the power of two Saint medicines to achieve this breakthrough.
In the past, tests had been conducted, and people had even tried using 10 Saint medicines of the same type to improve their Physique, but they still failed.

Why was that? Later in the history of this world, along with the appearance of the first Gods, the cultivators discovered that in addition to the amount of energy needed for the process, a special "push" was needed for qualitative advancement.
That push would not come if you tried to combine multiple resources. Only a qualitatively superior resource could provide that push.
Thinking analogously, it is as if there was an energy filter that filtered what went into a reservoir. Adding more medicine would be like adding more faucets to send fluids into that reservoir. But holes on the side of that reservoir prevented all that energy from building up.
For a successful breakthrough, you would need a supply of liquid so intense and with such tremendous pressure that the filter and the reservoir itself would be filled and even destroyed!
Only by destroying the qualitative limitations of a human body could one reach a new Physique level.
Under normal circumstances, adding Saint-grade medicines would not work because of this problem.
But Ruth had experienced something extraordinary!
By receiving a lot of the Spiritual Blessings of the level 100 dragon, her body had evolved, and the side "holes" of her "reservoir" had been closed.
With a Saint-grade medicine, she felt she could provide the pressure needed to 'explode' this lower-grade reservoir.
In Minos' case, he had also greatly improved the quality of his body and Physique and was not far from what Ruth had achieved. But his case was exceptional. His Physique was a mutant that could constantly evolve, relying on higher-level resources to improve itself.
His Physique was becoming more and more like the ancient skeletons of this world. Minos would not risk a breakthrough with Saint-grade medicine. He would use a Divine-grade one and ensure the maximum benefit for himself.
Unlike his other wives, who would have to wait until level 99 to try to evolve their Physiques qualitatively, Minos could do it when he reached level 90.
He then summoned the Saint-grade medicine compatible with Ruth and showed her a black fruit. "Eat it and start meditating. You have a good chance of success after what you received from the ancient dragon."
Ruth felt very confident with the feeling of desire she had in her body, and even though it was risky to go through with it, she didn't hesitate to take it and bite into it.
The other women looked at her in silence, feeling that if it worked, Ruth would be the first person in this world in a long time to achieve a Divine Physique!
She devoured the fruit, immediately sat in the lotus position, and began meditating.
Meanwhile, Minos quickly distributed some defensive and offensive items to his wives and pills for them to take in case they were seriously injured.
He did not want them to use these to strengthen themselves artificially but to protect their lives in case trouble came.
Many of the resources in that spatial ring would be most beneficial to the high-level Sages of the Black Plain Empire who were trying to advance to level 90. Thus, Minos would keep them for his men.
Also, some of those resources would only be useful to mid and high-level Demigods. But he didn't have anyone like that in his group yet.
Minos put those items aside and soon began meditating with his wives.
