The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2608

Two weeks after the arrival of Segiel's group of masters, Minos was still working in Monastery of Chaos when the level 120 Elder returned with new hostages.

Minos was nearing the limit of the last survivors of the Monastery of Chaos when he received a message from one man in the area.

"Continue to cultivate here. I'll be back in a couple of hours with fresh enemies," Minos said as he finished with the group of five guinea pigs, now so destroyed that no one in the area doubted that they would die later today.

The three Generals who were there to strengthen themselves, still waiting for the opportunity to reach level 115, agreed as they went into their meditation modes while Minos left.

Abby and Ruth joined their husband in leaving this secluded area of the Monastery of Chaos, the place where they had been conducting their experiments since the beginning of their stay in the area.

On their way to the Elder, who had just returned from a hunt, the three soon spotted the blue-haired alien, very similar to Segiel in many ways, beautiful and with a glowing aura.

Next to the level 120 Elder were six peak level 114 Sovereigns, all unconscious but healthy.

"Your efforts are paying off." The Elder looked at Ruth and Abby with interest, sensing their new cultivations.

Ruth was now at level 109, while Abby had reached level 108 the night before!

But even Minos had left the absolute beginnings of level 110 and reached an energy plateau that would normally take a newly promoted individual a full decade to reach.

'The effects of his ability are truly incredible. At this rate, it's likely that he will advance to level 111 before the end of this century.' The elder looked at Minos with interest.

He said to her, "we have had some success lately. But we're still failing with the Generals. However, with the group the Elder has brought, I feel that I'll be able to come up with better answers in no time. Cultivators who have never lost parts of their cultivation base seem to be more helpful in the experiment we're doing here."

"Then I won't stand in your way. Take them and continue your hard work." She gestured, causing the six to float towards Minos.

"There is still time for the next round of cultivation transfusions. Our men are meditating as they prepare for the next step. It is possible that one of them will be able to advance to level 115 between today and tomorrow—if that doesn't happen, then I may not help them in such a way." Minos held the unconscious bodies with his powers.

The Elder said, "in that case, I'll stay in the area to accompany your next attempts."

As they walked side by side, Abby asked. "By the way, Elder, how are the latest movements of the war going?"

"Agitated, I'd say. There should be a meeting of high-ranking Supremes in enemy territory soon, and the First Elder is already preparing to attack. Meanwhile, our troops are fighting on over 50 battlefields, and the Elders and Supreme corpses are on the move," she said in a grave tone.

The war was reaching a stage that could quickly lead to victory or defeat for the guild!

Depending on how the enemy reacted to the Armhands' offensive actions over the past few months, the confrontation could end within a few months.

Minos group expected to defeat Firestone Mines, but in the world of cultivation, anything was possible.

The group would talk to the Elder for a while before positioning themselves to observe Minos' actions while he prepared for his next attempt.

...

Hours later, Minos had cultivated and rested from his earlier efforts, while the three Generals were ready to continue their attempts to help them advance one step.

When he returned to the crater where they were conducting their experiments, where only a few members of the Armhands were currently receiving Minos' help and only the three Generals were there to promote themselves, he didn't hesitate to begin his movements.

Borrowing the strength of one of his men in the area, Minos reached the peak of the 11th stage.

He manipulated the cultivations of the guinea pigs and gave a fraction of their cultivation base to each of the three Generals waiting in lotus positions.

The 1% for those cultivators was about 2% of the cultivation base of those guinea pigs, not enough for them to go crazy from losing that part of themselves, but enough to feel terrible.

Meanwhile, the three felt that their strength was increasing; they were approaching the limits of the 11th stage!

The guild Commander's right-hand man suddenly felt something different, a tingling sensation followed by an absurd thirst. For a few moments, he felt like he was in a desert, and he searched for the 'water' he so desperately wanted.

But he wasn't in the desert, and his thirst wasn't just for water. In his search for what he felt was missing in his being, he absorbed more spiritual energy and laws than his body and soul could hold in the 11th stage.

Seeing this from her position, Segiel's teacher broke into a smile on her mature face, sensing the same thing that Minos had already noticed.

'He is going to reach the 12th stage!' The two thought almost instantly, witnessing the birth of the first Supreme among the guild Generals in millennia!

Moments after Minos began his moves to help the three Generals, everyone in the Monastery of Chaos stopped what they were doing to look to this expert.

Abby and Ruth smiled broadly as they felt their guild mate's aura jump from level 114 to level 115, reaching the 12th stage with Minos' help!

But it wasn't just the guild Commander's trusted man who had made this qualitative breakthrough. Shortly after he began to stabilize his cultivation at level 115, he realized one of his two colleagues would also achieve this feat today.

Minos and the level 120 Elder looked in the direction of the other alien and saw signs similar to those of the man who had already advanced among the three, weaker signs than the previous ones, but enough to indicate another advance to the 12th stage.

Only two of them could advance to level 115 today, but the end of this experiment would be very successful. Once again, Minos had helped the guild create Supremes amid the war against Firestone Mines!
