The Rise of the Black Plain

While Maisie rushed to the royal palace, eager to meet her granddaughter, another group from the Empire admired the view of Dry City at night.

They were surprised by the festivities in this place, of course. But there was no way that the people in this group who had been there shortly after independence could not admire the transformation of the place.

Today Dry City had almost 7 million inhabitants, with an average level of around level 48, quite a mark, considering that 18 years ago, there were no people of this level in this city.

At the same time, when entering the built-up area, the people sent by the emperor soon noticed the amount of high-level Spiritual Kings on the streets, but also Spiritual Emperors.

"This place has developed a lot." The group leader, Warner, level 69, commented to his companions, feeling that the Black Plain was doing better than they thought.

"It seems that Minos becoming King of Vogel has helped them greatly..." Another one there said as he observed the quality of the streets of Dry City.

The Black Plain has developed a lot in the last four years, reaching the mark of 160 million inhabitants in its territory, half of those in this original Black Plain area.

Due to this growth, much has been built or repaired in the last few years, generating even more growth in terms of food production and cultivation resources.

The local economy had grown more than ten times in those four years, and the Black Plain already had an income similar to that of some large organizations outside the northern region.

Since it was the state behind all the local development, most of the profits came from the Minos government, which could invest faster and better than others worldwide. The result was this rapid development, coupled with the increased wealth of this population that financed the government through the Bank of the Black Plain.

Thus, one could not help but compare Minos to one of the most impressive experts in this world. "It seems he is following the same path as Vico Travisani."

"Is that so?"

"Maybe... There's still a lot to be explored in Vogel, so I wouldn't be surprised if Spiritual Saints start appearing in this state soon."

They continued to chat as they moved through this city.

...

After some time, Minos had finished receiving the gifts and congratulations from his subordinates, vassals, and allies.

He returned to the Spatial Kingdom to see his daughter again after hours of dealing with those people.

But upon arriving at his cultivation sanctum, Minos immediately saw the completion of his wife's advancement, who had finally advanced to level 70 after so long at level 69.

Gloria had slept for a few hours and then woke up to see her daughter, who had been cared for in the meantime by Abby and Ruth.

After cuddling her baby, she gathered her energy and prepared herself to break through a level, something that there was no danger for her to do on the same day as the labor.

Women were weakened during childbirth but recovered quite quickly after it happened. After all, the cultivation world was dangerous, and it would be problematic for a mother to be weakened for a long time after giving birth.

So evolution stimulated this ability for high post-partum recovery in cultivators of practically all species.

So, this woman who had already gathered the amount of energy in her body and understood her techniques to her limit was not slow to make her advancement.

Her talent was of a high level, so she would not have any bottlenecks in reaching level 70. At the same time, the Spatial Kingdom had many favorable conditions for similar situations, which helped her quickly achieve this long-awaited breakthrough.<novelnext> pan(da-n0vel.c)om</novelnext>

Minos saw that finishing and smiled in satisfaction as he saw his wife's body changing, quickly healing the minor marks of childbirth that were still there.

Since Gloria had reached level 70, she immediately gained the ability to change her body permanently, readily using this to improve the few attributes she wished to evolve.

When she opened her eyes, a new glow could be seen in them, as she was full of energy, with her 100% to carry out her duties and desires! revl.

She had not been in bed with her husband for months because of her pregnancy. But on the other hand, even though she had a high level before, she could not help her family in fights or training. After all, her strength decreased during pregnancy, and she had to guard herself more during that period.

So as she leveled up and felt in her best state, she was beaming with happiness, and soon after, she opened her eyes, she jumped toward Minos to hug him.

"Minos~" She said sweetly as her lips trailed toward his with unparalleled desire.

But as she kissed him and he felt the body of his wife after that breakthrough, Sarah began to cry in Ruth's arms.

The two parted their lips and looked at each other, then smiled together before they saw that black-haired woman bring Sarah to them.

"I think she's hungry," Ruth commented, as this baby's diapers were clean, and there did not seem to be anything wrong with her little body.

Gloria then looked lovingly at her daughter, taking Sarah in her arms and heading inside the lake house.

As she sat down and put one of her breasts out, little Sarah took that soft ball of fat with her little hands until she found her mother's erect nipple.

The baby then gently bit down on that part of her mother, beginning to suck on it instinctively in search of her food.

Gloria blushed as she felt this, happy to feed her daughter with Minos for the first time but also a little nervous, given her desire for her husband.

It was not easy for a woman with months of abstention to feed for the first time. So Gloria could not help but feel something as she looked at Minos while breastfeeding.

Minos understood perfectly well that his wife was in the mood and winked at her, indicating that all she had to do was to finish feeding Sarah, and he would take care of her needs.

A mother was also a woman!

So, as soon as Sarah fell asleep in Gloria's arms, Ruth and Abby went back to taking care of her while that red-haired woman went with Minos to their room.

In this situation, they would spend the following few hours exchanging fluids without disturbing the newborn child's peaceful sleep.

...

Meanwhile, Maisie had just arrived at the royal residence, where Dillian and Eda welcomed her in place of Minos, who was away.

"Miss, it's good to see you again!" That mustachioed and relatively young-looking fellow said this when he saw the figure of this woman who was already at level 72.

"Where is my son? Has my granddaughter been born?" She did not want to waste any time and got right to the point, wanting to take her granddaughter in her arms.

Upon hearing this, Dillian and Eda looked at each other, smiling in confirmation. "Yes, Princess Sarah was born a few hours ago..."
