The Rise of the Black Plain

chapter-1320
As they got closer to the gravedigger working in that red place, Minos and Abby looked at him strangely.
He knew this person could not be alive since this area was unfit for people to stay in for a long time and the inheritance site.
Minos had no way of knowing whether the God of Death's inheritance would be similar to the Goddess of Life's, which sent the competitors to the place where everything happened or was different. After all, each inheritance followed the rules of its creator, which could vary greatly.
Hence, for all intents and purposes, he already considered himself to be within the inheritance from the moment he passed through the dark mist. So he felt that this gravedigger was part of the inheritance, not a person alive.
On the other hand, she looked at that individual with strangeness in her eyes as she felt negative vibrations coming from him."Who are you?" Abby asked in an attempt to confirm the theory in her mind.
"Help me. The graves won't open on their own." He said, still not looking at the two youths nearby.
Minos then asked this man, who seemed to be at level 70. "What are you for this inheritance?"
"Inheritance?" This man smiled as he stopped his movement while looking at the red dirt in front of him. "So you aren't here to help me? When was the last time that happened? A million years?"
Minos and Abby frowned until they saw such a person drop his shovel and look in their direction, showing his face to them.
This person's face looked like a patchwork, one eye black, one red, nose disproportionate, in an orange-white, distinguishable, right cheek white and left black. Meanwhile, the right half of his lips were frozen in a smiling position, and the left half was in annoyance.
Half of his forehead was cut, and the other half had veins showing on his skin, sweat dripping from his pores.In addition, they could see the seams connecting each part of this person's face, indicating that someone had done this.
The eyes of the two narrowed as they wondered who this person was.
"Uh?" He looked intently at Minos and muttered. "You have the scent of an old acquaintance on one of your hands..."
Minos frowned even more upon hearing that since the God of Death could not recognize anything that was on that hand of his.
"Who are you?" He asked louder while already holding one of Abby's fists.
The subject made smiled, but his expression did not change at all. "You want the inheritance in this place, right? Someone dared to put such a thing here, but everyone who came here perished before they even entered that despicable person's test."
"Aren't we inside the inheritance? So how can you be here?" Abby questioned, feeling that her previous theory was wrong.
"Inside the inheritance?" He laughed again. "The inheritance is right there." He pointed with one of his fingers to a tomb built vertically into the rocky walls of the cliff they had just walked down.
In that tomb, the two immediately saw a dark mist escaping from the sides of it, while the symbol of a dark trident was embedded in the center of it.
"If that's not the inheritance..." Minos prepared to run from there, figuring that the person in front of them could only be the curse of this place.
He had not thought he would be fooled even though he had the protection of the Spatial Kingdom's ring. So, upon noticing the actual location of the God of Death's inheritance, Minos felt he should escape.
He immediately circulated his energies through the Spatial Kingdom's ring to teleport him and Abby.
Zum!
As he did so, the man in front of them ran towards them in the blink of an eye, watching the change of space happen as the teleportation took place.
When Minos and Abby appeared inside the Spatial Kingdom where Ruth and Gloria were, they looked a little pale but soon became much worse.
As soon as they saw the surroundings of that place and started to feel better, the same man as before appeared in front of them, this time a little transparent.
"Did he manage to follow us? How?" Abby shouted in shock while Minos' two other wives watched the situation from afar, not understanding why they had returned so quickly.
Minos then said. "That's not part of the God of Death's inheritance but the curse of that place!"
"Even though he appears to be someone at level 70, he is above someone at level 99 in certain respects!"
"Hahaha, you know very well." That being said, in a humorous tone, while looking at the surroundings. "So this is that human's creation? That's the first time I've seen something like that..."
"Hmm? What is it?" Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and the 'patchwork' on his face, parts of the calamity that the creator of this curse had suffered, twitched.
He had quickly probed this Spatial Kingdom and felt what reaching level 100 meant. But even though this was his first time in one of these, he could more or less understand every law behind this place and still assume how something like this was done.
But even with all his 'development,' he could not understand the feeling he had just experienced.
Because of this, he took his eyes off Minos and Abby and looked away in the direction of where he had just 'heard' a strange chant, similar to the noise of a beast.
But that chant seemed inexplicable to him, charged with things he did not understand and an overwhelming power that made him shiver.
"What is that?" He said aloud as he looked at the gigantic skeleton 'lying' in the area he was looking at.
That was the consciousness of the Ancient Folk's nemesis curse. But even if, at the time of this tribe, the giant skeletons of this world already existed, this was not a guarantee that everyone knew about them.
Even today, many people would spend most of their lives in a tiny area of the world. So what must it have been like tens of millions of years in the past when the population was lower and certain places might seem to be all that the world had to offer?
At that time, the seals on these great skeletons had not yet been made, and they were lost to the world. But this was no guarantee that anyone would find them!
Several were ground up and had only been discovered in past excavations.
So, since the nemesis of the Ancient Folk had not known any of these fantastic creatures, he was startled to see that thing for the first time.
But not only that, but because of his 'development,' he felt something threatening coming from that and trembled with fear.
'Shit!'
'How dare anyone do that? How did he have the nerve to bring it into this place?' He looked back and saw Minos, not knowing if this was the biggest idiot in the world or a damn lucky one.
"Damn it!"
"Brat, I'll wait for you outside!" He ran off without waiting any longer to see what would happen if he stayed there too long.
