Chapter 2201 The Group's Decision
The entire group standing around fell silent at the robots' conclusion about their location in the universe.
Considering how powerful this place seemed to be, they had expected that they were nowhere near The Adamant Land. But when they heard that they might never be able to return, they couldn't help but remain silent, thinking about what that meant for them.
Minos didn't doubt the robots in his group and understood that it would be difficult for them to return. But he tried to remain positive. After a few moments of thought, he said. "At our level, we may not be able to return to our plans. But we're in a world where we can get stronger faster than we thought we could on our journey.
I'm at level 92, and I thought it would take me about 10 years to get to level 93 in the Spiritual World. But now I feel that if I stay in this world for 10 years, I can reach the peak of level 94. Then what if we stay here for 20 years or 30 years? That's how long we considered it would take us to help our world somehow.
Maybe in that time, we'll find solutions to this problem. So don't get discouraged too soon."
The robots looked at Minos and said nothing. But they thought that even if he progressed rapidly in the next few years, it would still be almost impossible for them to return to their plans in time. Ruth clenched her fists and asked. "All right. We won't be leaving this place for a while. I understand that. But what about the characteristics of this world? What can you tell about it from where we are?"
The level 98 robot replied. "From what we can see in the telescope, this world is located in a fairly powerful area of its galaxy. I can't tell you the exact level of the creatures we'll encounter on our journey here. Still, the cultivation limit in this world is likely to be different than what we had in the Spiritual World.
Considering some of the characteristics of the solar system we're in and the data I have from The Adamant Land and the Spiritual World, this place should have an average level between 80 and 87."
Some of the Demigods opened their mouths wide when they heard this, wondering what it could mean.
If that was indeed the average level in this world, then they were only slightly stronger than average. In the Spiritual World, those who were slightly above average were Spiritual Emperors, individuals with a much lower level of strength than the strongest in their world!
"How sure are you about this?" Minos asked.
"40%." The robot said. "My margin of certainty is low, of course, because I'm not judging the living beings of this world, but what the laws and energy available in this world can make possible.
The characteristics of this world definitely make it possible for most populations, such as those in the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land, to reach such an average level. But I might be wrong because I don't know much about the beings in this world.
But it's certain that Gods are not rare here, or we wouldn't have met one of them so easily." He said as he pointed to the corpse of the level 100 root.
The people in the group fell silent again, not knowing what to do.
"If that's the case, we have to be careful what we do," Minos said. "It might be interesting to spend some time cultivating where we are before exploring these lands."
"I agree with His Majesty." The last alchemist there, level 97, said. "I feel that exploring this world will trigger battles like the one we faced when we arrived here. If we have to deal with it constantly, you'll surely be wiped out in months or years at best.
Since we can easily farm where we are, why don't we settle down here until we make some progress?"
"That sounds like a good idea..."
Several people voiced their opinions and agreed to stay here. Even Maximilian, a God, was able to cultivate and become stronger just by meditating in this area. So staying there for a while shouldn't be a problem for any of them. Discussions about this would continue while some of the group was still meditating, without any final decisions being made.
A few more hours would pass, with the group now knowing much more than when they first arrived on this planet.
...
After a few hours, everyone had recovered from the fight against the level 100 root.
Everyone, including Maximilian, would feel the same as Minos and Ruth and realize that their recovery from cultivating in this world was very different from what happened in the Spiritual World. Not only that, but they would also realize that after only two cultivations in the Spiritual World, they would already feel stronger than when they arrived on this planet.
Even Maximilian, a cultivator who was supposed to be at the peak of cultivation, felt such a sensation, which naturally made him think of Minos' words about civilizations superior to them.
When he finished cultivating and talked about it with the group, he practically assured his group that the root they had encountered was not the most powerful opponent they could encounter on this planet.
However, the people had already woken up before Maximillian had expected this due to the discoveries from Minos' telescope.
They were in danger and urgently needed to be strengthened!
Maximillian listened to the group's discoveries about how strong this world was and soon came to the same conclusion as most of them, that it was worthwhile to focus on cultivating where they were before exploring this world.
They were probably stronger than average, but it would only take one encounter with a being more powerful than Maximilian, and they would be finished.
Maximilian himself valued his life very highly, so he agreed with everything most of them had said during the hours of meditation.
But shortly after he woke up, the level 97 robot that was testing one of the fractions of the level 100 root's body finished its work.
After he finished his meditation, having greatly improved his cultivation and about to advance to level 98, he told the group the results, saying that it was possible for them to safely become stronger by consuming the level 100 root.
With that settled, the group quickly separated those who would serve as guinea pigs from the spiritual experts who would try to create resources from the creature's remains.
They had brought a lot of resources from the Spiritual World, so they had a lot of options to combine with this root and try to create new spiritual products.
So, the group's first few days in this world would be focused on meditating to strengthen themselves. At the same time, some of them would work on experimenting with the best ways to use the corpse of the level 100 root.
