The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1349 Dark Sea In Action

Meanwhile, the soldiers of the Black Plain Army were standing with their backs to the place from where Minos had arrived, still unsure whether he would come or not.

"How are we going to hold these people back, Eduard?" One of the Spiritual Emperors in that group asked this Captain, the leader of the group of dozens of soldiers.

Each of them kept paying attention to the few Spiritual Saints there as they did their best to stop or even prevent such enemies from causing their deaths.

Minos' army had specialized in collectively fighting battles against stronger opponents, so they were still there for that reason alone.

But they were all sweaty and bleeding, with wounds of various intensities, as they tried to hold their fighting positions.

Eduard then said. "We will only do what is necessary until His Imperial Majesty arrives..."

As he was saying this, the five Spiritual Saints, who were between levels 70 and 73, saw the sky in the opposite direction from them suddenly start to turn dark.

Not only that, but when they noticed the figure of someone floating less than 100 meters from them, they all felt goosebumps on their backs, sensing something terrible.

The darkness spreading around Minos proliferated in the blink of an eye, changing the weather conditions in that area.

The winds became stronger, while clouds began to concentrate, slowly creating regions of high atmospheric pressure and an abnormal variation in the electrical charges there.

Because of this, lightning began to appear, making it seem as if the ability of Minos' soul was much more intense than it should be.

All this happened simultaneously with the formation of a sea of darkness in Minos' surroundings, which slowly spread out in all directions to about 200 meters from where he was standing.

"His Imperial Majesty!" One of the soldiers finally realized Minos' presence in the area, rejoicing a little at this troublesome situation.

On the other hand, the enemies looked at Minos, surprised that this young man was already at level 66, even though their information said he was at 65.

But that was not all that bothered them in this situation. No, no one among them knew about this strange ability that Minos was using, even considering that they had been investigating this person for months.

"What's that?" One of them asked in a low voice, watching beside his companions as darkness covered their surroundings.

They were all strong enough not to fear Minos and did not know what they should do to counter this strange attack. So they were waiting to see what this opponent had for them.

Everyone there was part of the group that had targeted Minos' head, so they would not run away when they finally encountered this poor fool.

Meanwhile, Minos activated several of his techniques, causing the Devouring Art to start sucking the energies of those individuals as he prepared to play with them.

'Level 72 and 73...' He noticed the two individuals who were a bit stronger than him and felt he could not handle them easily.

But that did not bother him since, in his opinion, his opponents were not strong enough to put him in danger.

'Let's see how you fight them...' Minos laughed as he used his mental technique to help the Dark Sea's results.

The Dark Sea could disorient its victims in a way that members of the same group affected by it could end up starting to fight each other!

Since the Infinite Dream served to degrade the mental state of targets, Minos did not miss the chance to combine such a technique with his soul ability.

Thus, while those individuals felt their energies being sucked out and stood in fighting positions, not seeing much on their fronts, the weaker individuals suffered at Minos' 'hands.'

Instead of killing them, he began to degrade their mental stability while the Dark Sea acted on its own in these people.

When one of them began to feel agony, he moved from side to side as if he were dancing. But this was not a dance, but rather such a person's way of deflecting the attack of an enemy who had appeared out of nowhere on his side.

"Bastard!" That first person shouted while the others moved without noticing, feeling like they were being watched.

'What's going on?' The strongest of the group wondered, feeling a little afraid and his instincts telling him to run away.

Unfortunately, none of them could escape Minos' 'clutches.' This young man was just waiting for one of them to try to leave the area to hit them with a powerful blow with the Spatial Sword.

Minos did not have to do much for the Dark Sea to have its effect. At the same time, he could attack as he wanted using the Infinite Dream and steal his opponents' energies from afar.

Then he could wait in whatever position he decided, thus choosing the best point to avoid possible escapes.

But from where he was prepared to attack whoever came his way, Minos saw when one of the level 70 Spiritual Saints suddenly attacked in the direction of the level 72 man.

Swooish!

"Ahhh!"

A sword strike sliced through the air, and the level 72 man, who was relying on his companions, barely managed to dodge a deadly attack that still managed to cut part of his waist.

"Bastard! What are you doing? Are you crazy?" That man shouted angrily, not understanding how his useless ally could have attacked him like that.

However, in that level 70 man's mind, the person he had just attacked was not an ally but a terrible monster that he felt if he did not kill it, it would kill him.

Even though he was weaker, this level 70 man started to attack his companion. That happened almost at the same time as the other two, a level 70 and a level 71 man, were attacking in the direction of the level 73 individual.

Minos obviously would not let these people die fighting alone against their superiors and promptly began to attack those two stronger ones.

Spatial Sword!

He danced with his sword, with each strike sending out two powerful twin blades, the special ability of his medium-level grade-3 weapon.

But he did not stop there. Instead, Minos began to move around the surroundings while activating and deactivating Chaotic Gravity, hindering those two individuals from fighting their opponents.

"You have come to my territory to mess up, so prepare for death!" Minos said in a decisive tone, while his soldiers could only feel what was happening, but without being able to see anything.

The Dark Sea generated a mist that even the eyes of cultivators had difficulty seeing through. Fortunately, this was their leader's ability, who was not restricting them at the moment, making it possible for them to sense what was happening among those five experts.

"Unbelievable!"

"His Imperial Majesty is not stronger than them individually, but he can make the group fight among themselves and help them destroy themselves!" One of the more sensitive ones there noticed, opening his mouth in shock at the ability of Minos' soul skill.

A few of them had felt such an ability before, but they had never seen it in action like it was happening in front of them. As such, these Spiritual Emperors could not help but be impressed, feeling the deadly battle of those five Spiritual Saints!
