On the 61st floor, the competition was starting to get tight. With the fall of 6 more opponents on the last few floors, Minos was getting closer and closer to fighting the main contenders.
Now, with only 27 competitors remaining, the current inheritance phase was heading towards the last individuals who would vie for the final stage of the race for a place in the Upper Realm.
Minos continued his encounters on each new floor he passed, having the chance to talk to the True Celestial behind this inheritance as he progressed in strength.
He no longer needed to meditate in order to cultivate, so his strength continued to improve, with every feature of his being gradually evolving to the next level.
When he left the room where he had done his challenge on the 61st floor, Minos had almost reached level 117, although he was still cultivating at level 115, just like his companions.
