The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1631

At Minos' words, the colorful fish changed its gaze, feeling that it could use the help of this human to take revenge for the death of its children.

It alone knew eliminating this dark-scaled serpent would be extremely difficult. But if it had help from this human, even more, if it fought outside the sea, its chances would be better.

Alone it wouldn't have many advantages fighting outside the sea, and more, it wouldn't be able to force its opponent to fight in that space.

But fighting in the air, it would have a slight advantage over that serpent, which had its locomotion more difficult in the air.

So seeing its possibility of victory increasing with the appearance of Minos, that fish soon changed its shape to its humanoid one so that it could breathe in the air. Meanwhile, it floated close to the human.

At the same time, the serpent had already changed form, becoming a gray-haired elder, totally different from that pink-haired man, but both several meters high, as if they were giants.

It also needed to use its humanoid form, or it could not breathe, which could risk the lives of even powerful beasts like itself.

Feeling the spatial restriction imposed by Minos, it couldn't help but show its weaker form while looking uglily at this low-level human that stood in its way.

"Damn it! What do you think you are doing? You think someone of your level can interfere in the affairs of someone of my position?" It bellowed, spitting as it spoke.

Minos said. "You like to talk, uh? I don't mind your confrontation. But my yacht won't stand a battle between you. Since you are not moving, I will make you regret this!"

"Hahahaha, you? With what force? With what battalion?" That sharp-looking fellow said, laughing ridiculously.

Then Randall sent a mental message to Minos, 'Ed, stop it! Run away, or he'll kill you!'

Minos could not answer Randall, so he said aloud. "Sapphire, Randall, lend me your strength for a moment."

Then Minos' two hands appeared behind these two as he manipulated the space in the surroundings for his benefit.

In a matter of a blink of an eye, those two low-level Spiritual Sages appeared beside him, shocked by the act of this human who should only be a Spiritual Saint.

Unlike humans from the Central Continent, beasts from the Ancestral Sea, and most of the Spiritual World, they had no idea who Minos Stuart, the emperor of the Black Plain Empire, was.

As such, with his movement, those two and the two beasts fighting earlier were shocked by this human's capabilities.

But in sequence with his spatial movement, Minos quickly raised his level to level 79, further shocking those two as the effects of his techniques grew stronger.

"What? How can that be?" The level 84 fish shouted without understanding.

Meanwhile, the dark serpent was smarter than its opponent and looked at Minos, frowning with its gray eyebrows. "Does he have that damn cultivation technique?" It wondered, knowing an ancient technique capable of making one's level different from one's true power.

Thinking about it, it didn't even pay attention to those two creatures, who were now weaker.

Beasts had their power focused on their bodies, but that didn't mean they had no fraction of spiritual strength. They had to have something, or they wouldn't live as long or have a chance to reincarnate.

In weaker beings, this spiritual remnant was insignificant. But in Spiritual Sages, that was enough for Minos to steal and use to his advantage temporarily.

The two realized where Minos' extra levels were coming from and immediately went pale with surprise, seeing that this was not the technique that the level 85 enemy was shouting.

'Are there people capable of doing that?'

'Impressive! Ed is that strong?'

The two thought, feeling less worried about their situation since he could do something so shocking.

As they thought this, the Soul Avatar of Minos grew in size, while everything in his surroundings seemed to come under his control.

The colorful fish smiled as it realized this sudden ally it got was so strong and said. "Human, help me defeat this worm. I will compensate you later, and I still offer protection for the territory ahead."

Minos knew that the protection of this level 84 being was no small thing, even though he could take him on with all his skills.

It obviously wouldn't be an easy battle, and if he didn't use his escape option to the Spatial Kingdom, nor the black hole, he probably wouldn't win and might even have his life in danger.

As such, getting this being's help and whatever reward he was promising was well worth it!

"OK!" Minos said before adding. "You will act against it, and I will support you."

"Let's go, human!" The fish flew toward the serpent while Minos' two traveling companions stood beside him to watch this fight.

The serpent was already feeling the gravity in its surroundings pressuring it and the intensification of the Infinite Dream, trying to make it lose consciousness of reality.

Meanwhile, the Devouring Art was degrading its strength, making it feel nervous for the first time since it had started fighting that fish earlier.

But it flew towards its opponent even with all these disadvantages, promising it would kill that human once it ended that idiot fish's life.

"Wretched human! I will slowly torture you after devouring this worthless fish!" It shouted as several sharp fangs, similar to the ones it had in its bestial form, appeared in its surroundings.

At the same time, fins appeared in the surroundings of the colorful fish, made of energy and laws, just like the fangs of its opponent.

8th stage beasts could activate innate abilities, which these two used as they resumed combat.

The two beasts with Minos hid inside his Soul Avatar. At the same time, this guy made his defensive technique create a golden 'skin' around his soul projection to protect them all.

With this, one of the most impressive battles ever witnessed and participated in by Minos would soon unfold at that location!
