The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2566

When the two serpents saw Minos kill four creatures that endangered their lives, they looked at him with wide eyes.

The more injured of the two, who had almost fainted a moment ago, stood firm as he watched Minos crush the four creatures as if they were tiny insects, and couldn't help but remain silent as he wondered what this human could do to them.

His companion controlled his breathing, trying not to attract the attention of the human-shaped monster they had just encountered.

'Who is this person? How is this possible? Did he just crush those four?' The less injured snake felt his thoughts speed up as he swallowed his saliva, just as frightened at this moment as his companion.

Minos looked with interest toward the four bodies crushed to the ground, while the dragon's paws disappeared into thin air as he stopped putting energy into the evolution of the Dragon's Gaze.

'It was easier than I thought. I killed them hastily.' Minos narrowed his eyes, realizing he would have to train his powers better before he could use them to train his children and wives. 'They were weak, so I'd probably have to work a little harder when I faced peak Sovereigns with the best conditions.

Still, he was confident he could defeat 11th stage opponents even without using all of his strength.

But that didn't mean he could fight someone at the 12th stage. If there was a big difference between 10th and 11th stage, the difference between 11th and 12th stage was even bigger!

Minos could only effectively fight low-level Sovereigns when he was already a high-level Grandmaster. At present, he thought he could only fight a low-level Supreme when he reached a cultivation level between 112 and 114.

He put that aside as he looked at the two colored serpents behind him. "So... Are you two okay?"

The two stopped staring at him in shock and closed their mouths as they shrank in size, forming more friendly bodies.

Then they quickly lowered their heads and said simultaneously. "Please guide us on this hard journey called cultivation, master! Your mounts are at your disposal to do whatever you command!"

Minos smiled as he raised one of his hands in front of him and ran it over the two creatures' heads while he stroked his chin with his other hand.

"You're really interesting, haha. What sect do you belong to? By the way, what are your names?"

"The one beside me is Tumgan, and I'm Amashin, my master. You can call us Gan and Ama," said the less injured serpent, not surprised by the aura of hydras covering their bodies.

They identified the source of this power, a necklace around their new master's neck.

The two remained silent about what they had noticed, relieved he had such a thing that could heal their injuries.

"We do not belong to any sect, my master. We are members of a tribe of alien serpents from the northern region of Oqia. We come from a mid-level world where the strongest can join the tribe and come to the tribal settlement in Zocarro. We have lived with our brothers and sisters since we came to this world 3,000 years ago." Ama explained to her master.

"I see... Then it won't be a problem for you to follow me to my guild," Minos said as he extinguished his fire and prepared to leave.

"What guild is the master in?"

"Armhands." Minos replied briefly, drawing the two serpents' eyes to his forehead.

"So that's it..."

"Aren't you two happy?" Minos asked casually, but the two almost begged for mercy when they answered.

"That's not it, my master! We will follow you wherever you send us, don't misunderstand!" Gan said hastily.

"We've never been to Examire, but we've heard a lot about it."

"Is that so?" Minos laughed at the nervousness of the two level 114 creatures. A few years ago, he would have thought it impossible that beings as strong as these two would behave like this in front of him.

"So how strong is your tribe? I'm not interested in conquering them. I just want to know what I can expect from your people."

"The strongest of the tribe is a level 115 Supreme, but he wouldn't come after us in Armhands, my master. You can rest assured he won't seek our freedom or anything like that," Gan explained.

They weren't part of an organization, but a tribe whose members could come and go as they pleased. Unless Minos showed intent to eliminate the tribe or something of that magnitude, the tribe members would hardly try to rescue them.

"It's a powerful tribe, then. Few who come from other worlds reach the 12th stage."

"The master will surely become a Supreme in no time. I can sense how impressive your cultivation speed is, master."

"I hope we can help you as long as you don't become too powerful for us to be of any use," the other serpent said, tugging on Minos' bag.

Minos smiled and said, "Enough small talk. Let's move on. I'm returning to the guild from a trip."

The two serpents did what they were supposed to do and flew side by side while Minos traveled sitting on the head of one of them.

"Gan, you'll carry me to Examire. Meanwhile, Ama, make sure we're safe. I want to cultivate while we travel, so make sure my meditation isn't disturbed."

"Yes, master." The two nodded in agreement, having already fully regained their best states after receiving seals from Minos and him finishing helping them with the Hydra's Amulet.

Without further ado, Minos closed his eyes, activated his divine ability, and turned his attention to cultivation.

There was just over a year's journey left before he reached Examire, enough for him to cultivate for the equivalent of another seven years while those two completed the rest of the journey.

'When I reach the guild, it will be time to solve the problems that have arisen over the past two decades...'

With this thought, he began to meditate, while the two serpents were shocked at the amount of energy Minos could absorb, even though he was only at level 109.

Minos was only at level 109, but he could control as much energy during his cultivation as the two level 114 serpents!
