The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1665

Unfortunately for this man, just as he was thinking of doing something to alert his leader, the golden trident flashed across his body as Maximillian appeared beside him, smiling.

The level 99 beast saw that and realized its thoughts of returning to this place for revenge had been futile.

"Tsk! If you were so weak, why did you come here?" This creature looked at the level 97 human, who now had bulging eyes, dying at Maximillian's hands.

Angel's Domain!

While holding his opponent's body, Maximillian activated the domain ability of his soul technique, causing a sphere of darkness to appear in the surroundings, covering up the area where they all stood.

As he felt himself within Maximillian's Dark Angel domain, Darren suddenly noticed his strength diminishing, as a pull seemed to hinder him in trying to get away from that man.

Minos felt none of it as he watched the decisive action of that level 99 Demigod, who was as strong or stronger than Henricus Longus when that God had not yet reached level 100.

'Maximillian is a monster.' He cautiously looked at this man's dark avatar as he wondered how terrifying his time must have been. 'If he's that good, imagine how strong Maximus must not have been?

Maximus beat Maximillian before he became a level 100 cultivator, so his power was far superior to this man's.'

Amidst this, Maximillian looked in the direction of that beast and said. "I allowed you to leave, but you chose to stay. Now I will not allow you to leave as you wish."

"What do you want? I will never become your mount!" As it felt pressure on itself, Darren said, afraid of Maximillian's trident.

Darren could feel if that injured it, its body would not recover even with 50,000 years of seclusion!

If it were injured, the only way for it to recover would be to advance to level 100!

But advancing to that level wasn't easy, even when one was in its best state...

So it wanted to avoid that!

Maximillian laughed and said. "Indeed, a beast of your level could not accept a humiliation of that level.

Young Minos is a bit emotional and has suggested something out of reality. But he is not entirely wrong, beast. If you want to survive, you will have to serve me.

I do not order you to become my mount. Just follow my words and rules. I won't limit you too much, but occasionally, I will give you missions to be accomplished at sea."

Darren gave that being an ugly look, feeling humiliated.

"What's up, beast? What's it going to be? Would you rather die here or become my subordinate?" Maximillian released the body of the level 97 man and focused all his attention on Darren while aiming his trident at that creature's chest.

"What alternative do I have? Of course, I will accept!" That beast lowered its spirit, feeling the mistake it had made.

But at the peak of level 99, it couldn't risk its thousands of years of cultivation now. All it could do was step back and obey that man as it ran after its advancement to level 100.

'I will obey you for the moment, human. But once I become a God, I will devour your body!' It thought as Maximillian also lowered his spirits, smiling at getting such a strong helper so easily.

If this beast were a level 99 human cultivator, he would have had difficulty overpowering it. That was because humans were focused on soul power, something more challenging to fight against than physical power, the focus of these creatures like Darren.

So it was easier for a human to dominate a beast at their level than against a human.

Of course, if the human let the beast get too close to them, this would also mean a significant risk of it mortally wounding them due to the physical capacity of these beings, something ordinary humans could not compare to.

But Maximillian was physically and spiritually extraordinary, so he could dominate this being at his level with relative ease.

The God's Trident in his hands had also helped him to frighten that creature, which, even though weaker, could have given this man now on Minos' side a little more trouble.

"Haha, beast, what's your name? You won't regret joining me!" Maximillian exclaimed as he landed beside Minos, just a few feet from that being. "On my side, you can conquer this entire world!"

"My name is Darren. As for conquering this world, I doubt we can do that, even if we combine our forces." It said, a little depressed as it looked at Minos angrily, for a mere Spiritual Saint had put it in this situation. "There are many level 99 elders among the strongest tribes in the world today.

Since there is no God in our world, the battle for supremacy will be bloody like never before in history."

"Perfect. I awakened at just the right time!" Maximillian thanked Minos once again, patting this young man on the back.

He then sealed his agreement with Darren with a single handshake.

Level 99 Demigods didn't need spiritual judges to seal their agreements. They had cultivation comprehensions so high that they could use the heavens as a witness to their commitments and validate an Invisible Contract with a mere handshake!

After confirming such a thing, Maximillian looked at Darren and asked. "By the way, why were you after a level 77 young man? How did you end up against each other?"

"It tried to devour me," Minos said.

Darren sighed. "This human seemed very talented. Even though he is only a Spiritual Saint, he can manipulate space."

"Oh? Is that true?" Maximillian liked what he heard, finding it interesting to meet someone so unique just after waking up.

"Yes, I have subtle space control. But it needs to develop a lot to compete with the powers of real Spiritual Sages." Minos didn't hide it.

"That's good. When you grow up, I'll give you some services." Maximillian commented before opening a spatial crack and looking at Darren. "Come along with me. I have some business to take care of, but I want you to accompany me for now. I will release you after that."

"OK."

"All right, let's go to the northern region!" He said as he took Minos by one of his shoulders, intending to update himself on the continent's affairs in that young man's empire.

And so the three disappeared from that island. At the same time, beings from the area would not dare to approach that place, afraid of what had made high-level Spiritual Demigods fight in that area.

Even a level 98 elder, the strongest one around, would not dare to go out and observe that place, feeling that it might die like the level 97 elder who had disappeared moments ago.
