The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1849

As the last of Minos and his group's enemies fell lifeless to the ground, he and his people lowered their spirits and sighed as the battle ended.

This had been a good battle for them to test their powers after weeks of cultivation and training without running into much danger.

Without Minos' new ability, the new feature of Ruth's regenerative ability, and the change in enemy numbers due to Emperor Stuart's persuasion, everything would have been different.

After finishing another high-level confrontation victoriously, these people smiled and relaxed a bit, sitting down on the outskirts of that destroyed area, while the more exhausted ones there, Abby, Ruth, and Forrest, sat down to meditate.

Seeing many high-level bodies, Minos ignored the fatigue in his body and the slight pain in his left shoulder.

That wound had already closed with Ruth's skill, but the pain would still last for some time.

However, seeing so many useful corpses for nurturing the northern region's spiritual roots, Minos immediately began to collect his spoils.

The spatial rings of these individuals belonged to those who killed them. But who would want those corpses there but the beasts?

Minos asked the phoenix. "Do you want the bodies of this one you killed? It will be useful to me if you don't want it."

"Is that so?" The phoenix muttered. He had only killed one enemy, and only because of the help of Minos' group.

Even though such a body had the potential to feed him for a few months, he didn't care and said. "You can collect it. I'll just keep this person's spatial ring."

Minos gave the rings that now belonged to Forrest's group and this beast, keeping most of the rings due to his earlier attack.

After storing the bodies of each of these beings, he counted his earnings from the spatial rings of the enemies he had killed.

Among them, the richest was the man who had struck Minos' shoulder and left behind incredible artifacts and resources that were likely to be found in this Spatial Kingdom.

Any group that entered this place would always have the secondary goal of finding things for their elders and higher-level experts. So when Minos found some things in those people's spatial rings that were higher than their levels, he did not find it strange and simply celebrated.

Without having to exert himself through searching and several hours of hard work, he had obtained several items for his future Demigods!

...

Two hours later, Minos' party had finally recovered from the previous battle and left the area where the great lake, the sky whale's advance to level 90, was.

Before leaving, the group had said goodbye to Harold, who had decided to return to the Flaming Empire before the group continued its journey in such a dangerous Spatial Kingdom.

The group had then located one of the portals in this area that led to another pocket of space, through which they carefully made their way to a new part of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom!

...

Outside of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom, several elders from various powers of the Spiritual World were in the area, waiting for the return of their young prodigies.

While a 'mountain' of scales was scanning the area with his eyes closed, a spatial disturbance suddenly appeared from one of those portals, and several experts looked in that direction.

The dragon opened his eyes to see who was returning from that space, but it was not the first to leave his tribe's ancient Spatial Kingdom.

Since more than half of the event had already passed, several low-level individuals who had entered that space and survived had returned to the Flaming Empire.

Seeing that it was only a level 82 human, the giant dragon ignored the red-haired man who had just emerged from one of the portals and closed his eyes again.

But Minos' men in the area and the Edwardstone family soon moved when they saw Harold again, curious to know about this man's earnings and the current situation of Emperor Stuart.

Oswald, a high-ranking elder of the Edwardstone family and a level 89 hybrid, quickly appeared beside Harold to welcome him back to his state.

"Your Majesty, did something happen to the party?" The local imperial family elder asked, anxious to know why his leader had returned alone.

Harold smiled and reassured the men. "Guys, don't worry. Our group is still in one piece. Most of our people have made breakthroughs within this Spatial Kingdom and are still looking for opportunities."

Upon hearing this, Oswald sighed in relief, seeing that all was well with Minos and the rest of the group.

Harold looked in the direction of his capital and said. "Let's talk about their situation in my city. I want to tell everyone in the family about our progress at once."

The men understood, and before the level 89 Sage returned to his post and the three left for Payton, Oswald congratulated Harold on his advancement to level 82.

"Congratulations on your promotion, Your Majesty. The whole empire will rejoice when they hear of it."

Harold smiled, hearing something similar from his family elder.

"This is nothing. The first Demigod of the Black Plain Empire emerged a few days ago!"

"Oh?"

...

Meanwhile, in another area of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom, a group of 2 elves, humans, and beasts were facing off against a group of humans from the western region who were arguing at that very moment.

After encountering each other, both sides exchanged a few blows, as both sides had their reasons to believe that the other party had interesting resources.

However, when they realized that their strengths were not far apart and noticed each other's origins, they lowered their spirits when one side proposed a deal.

"Humans of the Eastern Empire, you are enemies of that damned one from the northern region, right?" One of the elves whom Minos had robbed asked, already knowing who this man was after several weeks of traveling through this Spatial Kingdom, meeting several other groups, and fighting for resources and information.

Knowing who these opponents were and who Minos was to them, he thought of an exciting thing.

"Why don't we unite against this damned Minos Stuart? I'll help your group to destroy this filthy human!" The strongest elf declared.

"Oh? Are you enemies of Minos Stuart?" One of the members of the group sent by Vico asked.

"Yes, we had the displeasure of meeting the filthy one weeks ago."

Hearing this, the leader of the group sent by Vico thought about the possibility and felt it might be interesting to ally with this other group with more up-to-date information about Minos' group than the one they had.

"Good, let's join forces to eliminate Minos and his people!"
