The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2403

The moment he saw Minos appear next to him, the level 100 Sovereign paled at the sight of his enemy crossing the space so quickly, appearing next to him while aiming a punch at his face.",

Minos was at level 102, while he was at level 100. Not only that, neither his divine ability nor his innate ability was related to speed or reaction capacity.

He saw the enemy appear next to him, but could do nothing to dodge or even protect himself!

He felt the big mistake he had made before he experienced Minos' right fist, which was so strong that it could make a continent of the Spiritual World shake vigorously if he attacked it with that force at his disposal today.

The level 100 Sovereign only felt the moment of touch between Minos' fingers and his left cheek, before he died, his skull shattering, his brains scattering in the opposite direction of Minos' blow.

The blow from Minos' fist was so powerful that he practically severed his opponent's head, leaving behind only a large body with no more vital signs.

Forfex saw this as he acted against his two opponents and couldn't help but open his mouth in awe at the magnitude of Minos' power.

Minos' power was so extreme that he couldn't help but feel pessimistic, imagining that, even if he did well in The Red Expanse, sooner or later he would die during the subsequent contests for the place in the Upper Realm.

'Shit! I have no chance of winning against someone like Minos!' he thought to himself, watching Minos move to help him finish those two opponents.

'If I don't get rid of this inheritance, I'll end up dead!'

Forfex was clever. Perhaps there were competitors as monstrous as Minos. But he honestly wasn't one of them.

Seeing Minos' kind of power, he concluded that, if this young man survived his post-Millennium Massacre journey and joined the next phase of the selection, the young human would certainly be one favorite to win the final inheritance slots.

'I have to use these thousand years to get as strong as I can here in The Red Expanse. After that I'll try to live my life in my homeland and look for ways to leave the inheritance before I reach level 115!' He decided.

It could happen that Minos died before reaching level 115, but just in case, Forfex planned to prepare, considering that Minos would not die.

If Minos died after this massacre and Forfex couldn't get rid of this inheritance, then fine. But until then, he preferred to consider the worst-case scenario.

While Forfex was thinking about the distant future, their three enemies were already dead, while Minos was collecting those men's resources.

None of them could summon things from their spatial rings, apart from the things they had got on this plane. Things they had brought from outside were inaccessible until the event was over.

Even so, Minos intended to return to The Enchanted Realm sooner or later. Those items from the trio were certainly worth something to him.

Not only that, the dead group was moving north, a direction that would not lead to the center of this plan. In other words, they were looking for something, and may even have collected things on their journey there.

"It looks like they found a map," Minos said as he removed something from the space storage item of one of those corpses.

"A map? Is that possible?" Forfex approached Minos as he put his fearful thoughts about the future aside for a moment.

"It's like we thought. The Senior doesn't just want to select the top 100, he wants to help nurture his potential heirs. This map should lead us to something of great value or some test that will strengthen us if we survive," Minos said as he looked into his ally's eyes.

Forfex looked at that map closely and said. "This place can't be far. If we head north, we can get there in three months."

"Hmm, let's keep going." Minos gave one of the spatial storage items to Forfex and keep the other two. He also kept those three corpses in his ring, as they had a value for burial in the Spiritual World in the future.

When they moved, they were still at their altered levels, so Forfex asked. "By the way, how long will we stay in these current conditions?"

"About 30 minutes more. Since we didn't have to use much of our powers earlier, the effects will last quite a while," Minos said based on what he knew of his own ability.

The rules of this world didn't seem to affect the competitors' innate and divine abilities, so his estimate should be more or less correct.

"That's impressive! I honestly doubted you about your abilities until a few minutes ago, haha." Forfex laughed at his foolish thoughts. "I didn't think that even in a place like this, there would be someone who stood out so much from the rest. You're probably one of the favorites in the competition, Minos."

"Maybe in this test I really am." Minos didn't get carried away by the conditions favorable to him. "But there's no guarantee that the next events will give me the same favorable conditions. This test limits us to our innate abilities. But what if other powers or forms of contest are unleashed in the future? There's also no guarantee that the last test will be related to fighting ability."

Forfex looked silently at Minos, feeling that his companion's words made sense.

'Really, I hadn't thought of that. Maybe future tests will be about understanding or something not related to innate power!

This cheered him up a little, although he felt Minos wasn't just powerful and would certainly have advantages in other aspects, too.

"In any case, the Millennium Massacre shouldn't be a problem for you. Let's move on and deal with our competitors as we did today. Sooner or later, we'll have our positions," Forfex said confidently.

"Yes. Perhaps adding some allies will be necessary in the future. But eliminating opponents at this part of the journey makes sense."

They continued towards the dead trio's destination.
