The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1436 Change Of Situation

As Minos was getting close to the fleeing group where the strongest mercenaries were, he came across a level 79 individual in his path.

"Minos Stuart, I'll have to hold you here for the moment!" While he already had his Soul Avatar activated, such a person shouted at him, prepared to entertain this opponent.

This man was unlike the level 75 Spiritual Saint Minos had just defeated. No, different from such people, this peak individual left behind to deal with him was much more careful and would not underestimate Emperor Stuart.

Was Minos weaker without his black holes 'nourished' with the bodies of countless enemies and Black Hole Bombs? Sure, but that did not mean he was weak and could not do anything against these individuals from the Western Empire.

Minos could create new black holes all the time and be able to fuse others of his techniques, something he had already done in the confrontations against Abe so far. Hence, considering that this brown-haired fellow had advanced in level recently, this peak 8th-stage cultivator was not taking it easy from the start!

Emperor Stuart saw the opponent's movement and took precautions, using the many enemy Spiritual Saints under his influence to serve as batteries.

Minos placed his hands in front of his face, parallel to each other, squeezing the air as if he were pressing an invisible rubber ball. At the same time, his eyes glowed in rainbow colors, preparing to shoot powerful energy beams.

Infinite Dream: Shaking Reality!

Rays of energy shot from Minos' eyes, hitting the invisible sphere being compressed by his two hands.

That then created what appeared to be a small universe full of shining stars.

Chaotic Gravity: Shaking Reality!

The enemy noticed this was not simple when the fusion of Minos' techniques showed its effects.

Even though Minos' attack power seemed to be dangerous only to those below level 75, the fusion had a multiplier bonus that made the power released a little higher than normal.

Because of this, even that level 79 man felt that he could get a little hurt or hindered by Emperor Stuart's action!

Not only that level 79 man felt this. All the cultivators within a distance of 200 meters of Minos were affected by it since he still did not have much control over fusions.

'What the hell is that?' One person from the group of mercenaries swallowed his saliva as he felt the whole world shaking, unable to hold his position.

He felt as if he was suddenly no longer flying, and his legs trembled, bringing him to the ground.

"Is that Minos' current power?" A level 76 Spiritual Saint from the Gray Clouds Sect who was in the vicinity muttered, noting how strong the sect master was already at only level 68.

'Bastard monster!' The level 79 cultivator felt a slight headache at that but continued with his attack, directing an invisible wave that was charged with a powerful mental attack.

Minos felt that, and even though he was quite tired after using his fusion of techniques, he moved, absorbing the energies of his hostages but also manipulating them with his gravitational control.

With this move by Minos, more than a dozen Spiritual Saints stood in front of him in a defensive shield, protecting him from that mental shockwave.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"

When that movement hit those people, some of them, the weaker ones, suddenly died. But the stronger ones screamed in pain as they felt their mental structures being destroyed by that powerful opponent blow.

As for Minos, even though he suffered a little from that move, the blow had significantly weakened when it finally reached him.

At the same time, with the Infinite Dream, a Golden-grade technique protecting his mind, it would not be a mental attack from that man that would put him at risk.

But it still had a tremendous burden on Minos' consciousness, making him feel an intense headache.

Heaven Seal!

Golden Hammer Descending!

While he and the level 79 Spiritual Saint felt terrible for their respective situations, Spiritual Saints from Minos' group used the opportunity he created to attack that person.

Minos had already removed many of his group's enemies from the battlefield by just arriving at this place. Because of this, several people in his group were free to fight other opponents.

Seeing their leader's situation, the strongest ones reacted quickly, attacking in the direction of the level 79 Spiritual Saint.

This man saw these attacks coming towards him and frowned, looking back to check Abe's situation.

'In another 30 seconds, I'll be able to leave.' He concluded, being little interested in staying there to try to take Minos' life.

He focused his attention on countering his opponents' movements, launching attacks against anyone who stood against him.

Unfortunately, time was not in this man's favor on this day!

When 20 seconds had passed, three men arrived on the battlefield via teleportation zones, those areas set up by Minos' soldiers in the surroundings.

Among these individuals, all of them were high-level Spiritual Saints, 2 level 77 and one level 78.

Not only had Minos been warned to leave headquarters and come to this place where Abe could appear today. The strongest elders sent by the Gray Clouds Sect to the Black Plain had also been communicated.

They had run as fast as possible from where they were to this place, arriving only a few minutes after Minos.

In any case, when he realized the arrival of those individuals, the level 79 Spiritual Saint felt that his escape would be made much more difficult by his enemies.

Not only were these opponents in his surroundings getting more complicated with the arrival of these three people. His situation was terrible. Without many more living allies to share this moment with him, more and more Spiritual Saints from Minos' group were gathering against him!

Since Minos' soldiers were manipulating spatial stabilization arrays where he was, this man could not even use his teleportation array to escape!

'Damn it!'

'I'm finished!' He thought about it, feeling a headache from the lingering effects of the blow Minos had dealt him moments ago.

Thunder Hammer!

One of those newly arrived elders activated his Soul Avatar along with his main offensive technique, acting against such a person without any mercy!

At this moment, Abe's group had already disappeared from that area, but they knew that the fate of their men who stayed behind would be no other than death.

From this day on, they would no longer be the ones who only terrorized those areas. Instead, they would become victims of such surprise actions and would begin to feel the enemy encirclement coming closer and closer to them.

Now it was only a matter of time before a more decisive fight between Minos and Abe would take place!
