The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1536

After entering the territory of the Flowers Kingdom, Minos immediately noticed mid-level Spiritual Sages watching him.

Those women were not hiding their tracks, so it had been easy for him to notice their positions as he moved towards the interior of this state.

Minos did not mind their company since he had to follow these women's protocols to rescue Harold and perhaps his grandfather, Oswald. He knew these women would not simply bet with him on something, nor would they give him those two for a deal with the Black Plain.

Even with potential, the Black Plain Empire was light years away from the level of the Flowers Kingdom!

Knowing all this, he intended to accept the challenge from some of the women of the royal family and have as his prize the freedoms of those two individuals.

He knew both were alive since their vital signs were still intact when he left Dry City hours ago. But Minos had no idea whether those two still had their manhoods in one piece...

Whether castrated or not, Minos intended to take them back to the Flaming Empire, completing his promise to the Edwardstone family.

So he continued flying at high speed until he gradually noticed a forest with the presence of living beings not far ahead of him.

With this, he slowed his flying speed until he landed near a lake.

The Flowers Kingdom was a state of great plant and animal wealth. This state had a relatively small human population of only a few million inhabitants. Because of this, there were not many cities in this territory, which was about the size of Stone Island.

Because of these characteristics, Minos would not look for cities in this place but would travel through the forests, where many of the women in this state trained and even lived.

But not only that, as someone who did not have a map of this area, something the royal family strived to prevent people outside their organization from holding possession of, Minos could only travel slowly through this land.

...

In a forest full of grand trees, some colorful, others with gigantic vines, Minos landed near a lake.

As he landed there, he felt the presence of several beasts nearby while he had a smile on his face, experiencing this area for the first time.

He had memories of Henricus Longus from the time of that specialist when this area was not even dominated by the family that would one day become the ruler of this kingdom.

This territory had several races of powerful beasts, unique beings that could only be found there.

He then decided to cultivate, to perhaps attract the attention of one of these creatures.

'Hmm, this place is really better...' He thought, feeling the density of Laws and spiritual energy in the surroundings, far superior to what he could find in the Flaming Empire and Black Plain.

Not only that, this area, from what he felt, was not so different from the Spatial Kingdom!

Obviously, if he were to compare training in this place and the Spatial Kingdom for a lifetime, there would be big differences as time passed. But for someone who would spend weeks or months without being able to go to the cultivation shrine, the loss would be insignificant.

The place was good, and even low-level Spiritual Demigods could be 'born' there!

'One day, the Black Plain will reach this level too...' He imagined as he felt the spiritual energy in the surroundings mixing with the high-grade crystals he was using to cultivate.

Above level 70, cultivators were unable to have significant results cultivating with medium-grade crystals. Thus, every Spiritual Saint and the strongest ones used high-grade crystals in their soul cultivation.

Amid his cultivation, being watched by three Spiritual Sages, Minos drew the attention of a water beast near where he had arrived.

Then, suddenly, a creature that looked like a building emerged from within the narrow but deep water of that body of water in front of where Minos was.

It looked like a very long and thick snake, with large whiskery-like protuberances above its large mouth, entirely covered by blue scales.

Its eyes were blue like flames, and it had large spines on the top of its head, running down its body like long hair.

"Human..." The creature opened its mouth as it looked at Minos, feeling threatened by the presence of this being in its territory.

Minos opened his eyes upon hearing that, promptly looking at that level 80 creature, the most powerful beast he had ever witnessed in his entire life.

Beasts at this level were different from weaker ones by one thing. They could awaken hidden powers from their bloodline by reaching the 9th stage and achieve the possibility of using abilities similar to those of human cultivators.

Furthermore, beasts at this stage also had the spatial manipulation abilities of humans.

Because of this, Minos wanted to fight one of these beings and afterward get a guide through this state.

He just didn't expect that the first being to appear would be precisely a Spiritual Sage!

"Royal Spiny Snake, seeing one of your kind live is amazing!" He exclaimed as he put on a fighting pose, knowing this opponent was not simple.

"Human, what do you desire in my territory? Are you coveting the forces of this sovereign?" The giant creature asked as it had its split tongue out of its mouth, probing Minos, as it sensed that this level 71 human was not simple.

"I only wish for someone to show me the area... Could that be you? How about this? I will give you some food to help you get stronger, and you guide me to a powerful woman in this area. We can help each other temporarily."

"I helping you?" The beast exclaimed, obviously not liking hearing that from a level 71 human.

It was true that it felt something strange from him, but the difference in cultivation between the two was too significant for it to see itself as on par with this little being.

"Why not? What would you lose?" Minos smiled as he was prepared to pick up one of his swords from his spatial ring.

"Dream on!" The great beast exclaimed, losing patience to deal with this human and deciding to put its strength to the test.

Minos had expected this, and when the creature's tail appeared coming out of a wormhole above him to crush his body, he made his Soul Avatar appear while already activating all his techniques.

With his soul projection, Minos immediately saw part of that beast stop falling towards him and begin to tremble while a grunt departed from its large mouth.

At that instant, Minos' domain began to force the wormhole to close, pressing down with great force on that part of the beast trying to attack him.

But he was not a merciful individual, so Minos soon began to attack that creature to subdue it and make it accept the deal he had offered.

Chaotic Gravity!

He began to push that body in the opposite direction that it was trying to move to get rid of the space trying to crush it.
