Having got used to the new sensations a little, Sam took the second stone and began to feed his already created spiritual network. The network was now ephemeral and extremely weak.

At the Qi Condensation stage, he had to saturate his spiritual network until it became strong enough, after which he could break through to the Foundations stage.

The Qi Condensation stage, like others, is usually divided into an initial stage, middle stage, peak stage, and complete stage.

Sam did not know about spirit cultivators, or even other body cultivators, but for the technique provided to him, the main thing is only to continue to gradually strengthen his circulation of spiritual energy.

Since he was already considered a cultivator, there was nowhere to rush. He rested a bit and later continued to feed the spiritual circulation in the body with the second stone.

After the second stone was depleted, its circulation increased markedly.

Sam started trying to meditate as he was taught. Meditation was part of the cultivation method, it will not always be possible to use spiritual stones and more often you will have to absorb spiritual energy in the area.

Of course, the absorption of spiritual stones is also essentially meditation.

He didn't know if this was normal, but when trying to use his spiritual network for absorption, he almost did not feel the strengthening of the network, just a little. There is nothing to compare with the absorption of a spirit stone.

Still, it's better than nothing, so Sam continued patiently.

Each of the new arrivals split into different directions, only a few remained close by. The people from the Earth were obviously not familiar, but they were still not far from each other.

After about a week or more, they finally arrived at the site.

All who did not have their own food were pretty much weak, hungry and dehydrated, despite their strong bodies. But no one else dared to create problems, and some even shared food.

The floor beneath Sam's feet disappeared and he sank to the ground like everyone else, after which they saw that they were inside the ship.

This ship took off a little higher, after leaving them on the ground, after which it disappeared altogether. An old man appeared in his place and looked at them from the air.

Looking around, Sam noticed a rather large clearing in the vicinity, with a radius of a couple of kilometres. In the clearing itself there was nothing but yellow earth and it was very even, as if artificially created.

Beyond the boundaries of the cleared field, vegetation of various types was already visible.

And in the middle of the meadow there was a high hill on which there was either a palace or a castle. He was completely white.

Beautiful flowers grew on the hill around, and on four sides of the castle there were white steps that led, respectively, to four beautiful arched gates.

The castle was quite large, probably a couple of hundred square meters.

Above were two suns, one shone brightly, and the other was barely visible. It was hot enough on the planet. Even the sky had a red tint.

- This is your new home, you will equip your home yourself, you are allowed to live only near the border of the designated territory.

- Your first task is to survey the territory for a hundred kilometres around, the further the better, you have a month of time.

- Each of you has a mark, so any attempt to escape will be punished.

- Each of you must be evenly distributed around the circle for reconnaissance, no teams, you must cover as much territory as possible.

The old man said nothing more, flew to the castle and disappeared.

Sam looked back at the other humanoids, each assessing the situation and gradually began to disperse.

Sam chose one side and got to the edge of the field.

Other earth people dispersed not far from him. In fact, they were all close, if you can call it that.

Sam decided to sit around the border for a while and observe.

He could not see far, there was wildlife in sight. The trees were mostly red in color and of varying sizes, some towered hundreds of meters.

There were similarities of flowers of different types and something incomprehensible like growths. In any case, the vegetation was not very dense.

Sam did not know how to build houses or something like that at all, and now he regretted that he had not written down various useful information in his laptop, but how could he know that he would leave Earth?

But he still had a bunch of junk in his rings, various swords, shields, weapons, food, and so on, except that the cores was only thing that disappeared.

Sam took out a spare set of crocodile leather and dressed, then took the swords and went forward, there was plenty of time, for a start he decided to look around a little.

He did not want to use weapons from the Earth, at least at for now. It's too noisy after all. You never know who will run to the noise.
