The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1837 Movements In The Other Space Pockets

?

"Natural phenomena or the actions of sentient beings, huh?" Forrest repeated as the people in his group looked at Gloria and Abby with interest.

"It looks like you two think there's something there." One of them commented with a smile.

"Do you know anything?" Abby asked. "We heard that even Emperor Quinn thinks something strange is going on in this area. Why shouldn't we suspect that there really is?"

"So you've heard those rumors as well." Another of those Demigods commented before Forrest answered Abby and Gloria.

"We've also heard of Emperor Quinn's concerns and his failed attempt to convince his own allies to join him in looking to the North Sea. But as far as we know, there is nothing in that area.

Two hundred thousand years ago, this place was as troubled as it is today. Some incidents happened to members of the Church and motivated the Supreme Pontiff of that time to go there himself to investigate if something was wrong.

Before that, the incidents in the area were controlled, but suddenly, they became more chaotic. Yet, it must be some kind of natural phenomenon, a cycle.

When the Supreme Pontiff of that time visited that sea, he concluded there was nothing there and the area was just more agitated than before. He concluded that some kind of cyclical phenomenon was happening in the North Sea. The phenomena in that area will increase and eventually decrease every few hundred thousand years.

This must be a common feature of our world, something like the seasons, but with much longer-lasting cycles." 

Some Demigods had heard of this theory while studying at the Spiritual Church headquarters and nodded.

Many wanted to fantasize about what was happening in the North Sea out of sheer fear, alarmism, and conspiratorial thoughts. But they had it on good authority that these were just natural phenomena, dangerous even for low-level Demigods, but limited to that uninhabited area.

The second strongest Demigod in the group added. "The Spiritual World is not dead, ladies. Continents are moving. The ocean floor is moving. Islands are floating, and so on. There are traces all over the world that all the continents were once one land mass. 

These are cyclical processes. Sometimes, the world will cool down. Sometimes, it will warm up, and the continents will separate or come together. However, this is part of the reality we live in. What happens in the North Sea follows the same rule. 

So don't worry about these phenomena. As long as you stay away from that area, you will be safe."

Abby and Gloria looked at each other for a moment, and then the blue-haired woman asked. "But what if there is something? Let's say there was something in the North Sea that threatened the Central Continent, the Church's territory. How would you deal with it?"

Forrest laughed when he heard this, seeing that they really did believe the same things as Emperor Quinn, even after hearing the voice of reason. "In that case, if we had proof that our territory was being attacked or harmed by something in that area, we would act."

Abby was pleased to hear this and brought the matter to her husband's attention. 'Then we'll gather that evidence for you.'

"But things would be a bit complicated now with the war between Maximillian and Vico. Any expert would think twice before getting involved in a high-level problem that has nothing to do with them." One of the level 90 men said.

...

While the group was talking inside the inheritance area, the two groups that were already inside the space pocket when Minos awakened the inheritance were on the outskirts of the area.

Just as Forrest's group could not leave that space, those curious and interested in taking what was not theirs could not enter that space.

But confident that something of high level was happening there, the two groups parked nearby, waiting for the end of this legacy to see if they could benefit from it.

Luckily for Minos' group, there were only humans around so far.

...

On the other hand, after leaving the previous pocket, the large level 90 Sky Whale had spent the last few days investigating the whereabouts of the dragons that had previously angered him.

However, as strong as he was, this creature did not have powerful tracking abilities, and he had yet to find his targets after all these days.

However, the day before, this creature had stumbled upon a major battle in the space pocket he was in, and he had seen two high-ranking groups engaged in a deadly battle.

Vico's and Maximillian's groups met by chance in this space pocket and fought a great battle for three hours!

However, both groups had already had random but problematic encounters in this Spatial Kingdom. So they had fought to a draw, even though they were very different in composition when they left the Flaming Empire.

Calvert's group had struggled to win the previous battle against the beasts they had encountered along the way. The group sent by Vico, however, had run into a group of angry elves and missed a few opportunities as well.

Both sides had had their luck before they had even met, and despite their chance encounters, neither had managed to gain an advantage over the other.

The great whale saw one such confrontation and merely watched as the two groups battled for a while before seeing them give up when they realized his presence in the area.

Unfortunately for them, few had the courage to act forcefully in his presence.

But for these young talents, there was no harm in retreating from the mere presence of this whale in the area. Even Vico and Maximillian would be careful if they were near a Sky Whale of a level close to their own!

This was what it meant to belong to the most powerful and feared race in the Spiritual World!

...

Meanwhile, the dragons were in another space pocket, minding their own business, in the dark about the search for this level 90 whale.

However, just like the enemy they were searching for, the two dragons had advanced and reached level 90 in the past few days!

In the same pocket where these dragons were, the group of Nine-tailed Foxes noticed the movement of the dragons and decided to leave from there, entering a spatial portal that led to another area of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom.

'Hm?' Upon arriving at another area, the elder fox suddenly felt a terrible spiritual fluctuation and looked to where a large energy ball was covering a vast area.

"A level 100 aura! Has anyone managed to initiate one of the lost heirlooms from this place?"
