The Rise of the Black Plain



When he saw those two beings maintaining the collision between their attacks, trying to quickly end the battle, Minos was not slow in his movements.

He positioned himself as if he was preparing to run and activated his movement technique.

Explosive Steps: Killer Jump!

He flew towards his opponent's back, leaving those two fish behind without them even noticing his movement at first.

At the same time, he had both hands gripping his sword in front of his chest, holding it the same way one would when intending to pierce an enemy with a sword.

He circulated his energies through the Spatial Sword and, for the first time, fused this technique with that of movement.

Spatial Sword: Killer Jump!

At that instant, his spiritual sword began to glow brightly, its blade quickly being covered by dark energy.

Meanwhile, the space around him seemed to distort with his movement, creating a vacuum where he passed.

As he neared his opponent, Minos focused all the rest of his energy on his defense, ready to receive a counterattack from the creature if anything went wrong.

Swooish!

His sword sliced through the air in front of him, making a frightening noise at that beast slowly overcoming the hilt of the colorful fish.

ραпdα -n૦νe| , c૦m 'Oh, shit!' It screamed in its mind as he felt passive in this situation against Minos.

It tried to move a little, but if it were careless, its movement would open space for the enemy. So it could neither dodge nor protect itself properly against Minos!

Thus, when Minos reached its back, he drove his spiritual sword through that being's body at heart height.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

A shrill scream broke from the depths of that beast's throat as the colored fish finally felt some advantage over its opponent.

Slowly its fist advanced towards the body of that serpent, making that dark being finally feel desperation.

Minos firmly held his sword, making it tremble inside his opponent's body, while quickly, the colored fist came at them both.

When that giant fist was about to reach that serpent's position, Minos quickly stepped aside, leaving only the serpent to be struck by that destructive blow.

Pow!

Finally, the level 84 fish's blow hit the level 85 snake, crumpling the front of that being, throwing it away, already mortally wounded.

With this move, this high-level battle ended, with that being stopping breathing before it even reached the surface of the water, where its body would return to normal.

Minos saw that and sighed, deactivating his techniques and feeling the exhaustion of fighting beings in the middle part of the 9th stage of cultivation.

'That's my limit per hour...' He thought as he saw the big fish looking at him favorably.

Then the two of them and the two fish who saw this whole battle unfold went to the deck of Minos' yacht.

Emperor Stuart's level returned to level 77, and one of those three thought he was disguising himself again, while the other two knew that this was the actual cultivation of 'Ed.'

As they landed there, the colorful fish immediately thanked Minos for his help and introduced itself.

"Thanks for the support, human. By the way, my name is Ross."

"Hmm, my name is Ed. But it was nothing. It threatened my yacht, so I had no choice but to get involved." Minos said. 

"I'm sorry about that. The damned thing devoured some of my children hours ago and intended to attack my tribe. I couldn't contain my anger when I found out and started that earlier battle." It said, regretful about what had happened to some of its children.

It was a spiritual beast, a being that did not give as much importance to the position of its offspring as humans did when those offspring grew up. But still, its children were part of its strength, the ones that could support it once they fully matured. So it naturally valued them and felt bad about their deaths.

"I see..." Minos said, looking in the direction of the remains of the level 85 enemy.

The colorful fish, Ross, saw that and said. "If you want, you can have its body. You delivered the blow that gave us a chance to kill it."

Minos was unceremonious and soon stored that corpse in one of his spatial rings, ready to use that carcass once he returned to the Black Plain.

With that corpse, he could help another spiritual root in the northern region regain some of its splendor!

After he finished collecting that corpse, the colorful fish said. "Ed, as promised, I will compensate you and guide you through the territory ahead if you choose."

"Hmmm." Minos nodded, indicating that he would accept the offer.

"Well then, we will leave in your boat for the hour, but when we reach the edge of my tribe's territory, I will have to guide you to the ocean floor. Traveling by boat ahead can be dangerous." Ross said, thinking about what it had recently heard. 

It explained. "Near the edge of my territory, a pursuit is going on. Some members of the Sea Folk are searching for a fugitive traveling by boat. So it would not be interesting for us to travel like that when we pass through there." 

Hearing that, the two fish next to Minos couldn't help but feel they had escaped a big problem.

Sea Folk was not kind when they were acting against enemies. Even if one were not their enemy, they would violently act if they were suspicious of anything.

Weighing in how close they should be to entering the pursuit area indicated by this level 84 Spiritual Sage, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their bodies.

"Oh? All right, then." Minos said, not caring whether he would travel on the surface or the bottom of the ocean.

He would not be able to travel across the ocean floor alone. But alongside these beasts, it would be possible, so he wasn't worried.

Seeing that this human agreed with its plans, Ross asked. "By the way, where are you going? Unfortunately, depending on your destination, I won't be able to accompany you to the end of your journey."

"City of a Thousand Races," Minos said.

"It's not far, so I can take you there," Ross said, relieved. "As for the reward I promised, I have something that might interest you, Ed."

After saying those words, Ross grabbed something between his scales from the region of his belly, where he had a small storage space.

He then tossed what he picked up in Minos' direction, revealing a shiny silver pearl to this human.
