The Rise of the Black Plain

In the blink of an eye, the 8,000 or so soldiers and allies of Minos who were in the group led by him rushed towards the enemies, ready to fight to the death for this city!

Most of the 20,000 individuals from the local forces were here to deal with the team led by King Brown. As for the rest, 7,000 were in the group that was to fight against the forces led by London Brown, while the rest were in the southern outpost, from where the attack by the group led by the Miller family would come.

In any case, the 8,000 cultivators were following in Minos' footsteps toward the 30,000 or so opponents in this place, ready to kill those weaker enemies, especially those weakened by the previous mistake.

A part of the group led by Thomas had exhausted their energies trying to destroy parts of the local defensive dome, that failure from before.

And considering that the numbers in this conflict were disproportionately in favor of the invaders, Minos' subordinates and allies could not fail to take advantage of this opportunity!

King Brown had sacrificed such people the moment he had given the previous order. And since the people of Dry City were no fools, they could only finish the sacrifice initiated by Thomas by eliminating those poor bastards from this chaotic world.

"Kill those people first!" One of the several soldiers of the Black Plain Army shouted while pointing at the enemies who had run and attacked in the direction of the dome earlier.

Meanwhile, Minos was running at great speed while being closely followed by Celeste, Angela, and Emlyn, the only ones able to keep up with him in this place.

But not only were they accompanying him at this moment because they were capable of it, but because besides having a common goal, they needed to walk side by side with Minos.

After all, this was a very dangerous battlefield, and it would be dangerous for Minos to be alone.

He was not famous, and his appearance was not similar to that of his father. But every expert in the place had already recognized this young man, the local ruler.

And even if Minos were an unusual monster, if Thomas Brown came towards him with intent to kill, it would be problematic even for young Stuart!

So, the three of them stood side by side with Minos, running towards their enemies, all ready for a high-level battle against their target.

However, while the three women were circulating their energies and preparing for the imminent fight against Thomas, Minos was already sending out many attacks, creating chaos on the battlefield.

Young Stuart had the incredible advantage given by the Devouring Art, which gave him infinite spiritual energy, as long as there were enemies in his surroundings.

Consequently, since spiritual energy was not a problem, he was already fighting with everything, killing his way through!

There were many enemies there. That was undeniable. But, worse, his forces could not kill every one of these people!

So much so that his plans involved forcing the enemy to retreat by killing King Brown.

And precisely in this unfavorable situation, Minos was acting to lessen his disadvantage by eliminating part of the enemy Spiritual Generals on that battlefield!

And hell, fighting weaker opponents in his condition was something easy to him!

Infinite Dream!

Minos' eyes shone in rainbow colors as he looked to the side of the battlefield where many of the weaker enemies were, the ones who could easily fall for this technique of his.

Immediately after a powerful stream of energy shot out of his eyes, immediately 32 opponents fell dead in the surrounding area. In contrast, the people in the area had barely noticed what had happened.

However, Minos did not care about these small numbers and had barely paid attention to those his first targets.

Spatial Sword!

He then, just a second after finishing off those opponents with a single glance, sliced the air with his two medium-level grade-2 swords, launching several attacks towards the enemy Spiritual Generals.

But this time, he did not target the weakest of those individuals, but rather the strongest, those who would give his soldiers the most trouble.

Previously, when using his mental technique, he had not done such a thing because Infinite Dream had a weakness related to his spiritual energy.

If his level were not much higher than his opponents, this technique would be of little use in a battle with many enemies involved.

So, in this situation in question, it was only worth using that technique against the weakest enemies there!

In any case, it did not require much effort for him to use such a technique, so he had made use of it earlier when killing those 32 enemies.

But for dealing with stronger people, the Spatial Sword was the most suitable since it did not have that weakness.

This technique was brutal against opponents of equal or lower levels than its user!

Consequently, thinking of slaughtering many of his enemies at once, young Stuart had soon created gigantic blades of spiritual energy, targeting those stronger Spiritual Generals.

Swooish!

Swooish!

With that, quickly, the attacks sent by him were running their way towards their targets, terrifying many on the battlefield.

"What?"

'Damn it! I can't move!'

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

From then on, many individuals panicked as they realized that they either could not move due to the restrictive capacity of Minos' technique or were too weak to react.

Then, the first cries of pain erupted in that area, as many people died, and several suffered at least some kind of injury from Minos' relentless attacks.

But since there was no such thing as a little misfortune, the terror caused by Minos in this initial moment of battle was not over!

As Minos continued to attack, constantly using those techniques, he moved rapidly through that area alongside his companions.

But he was not just moving around without taking advantage of opportunities!

With his top-notch defensive and movement techniques, at every moment Minos was passing dozens of opponents, launching deadly dangerous blows against those in his path.

Indestructible Body!

He circulated his energies into his defensive technique, making his body incredibly powerful while deftly moving and attacking an opponent in his path.

Pow!

Getting close to an opponent, Minos kicked him hard in the head, causing that person's face to deform, just before he was thrown in the opposite direction of his opponent's blow.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

And similar things were happening as this young man walked past his opponents, attacking them in the meantime while activating those other two long-range techniques.

Infinite Dream!

Spatial Sword!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"

After almost a minute after the conflict had started, hundreds of bodies could already be seen in the vicinity of the defensive dome; people killed directly by Minos' actions.

Such a thing had happened very quickly, and when the enemy experts least expected it, the damage had already been done!

"This..."

"That can't be! How can this be happening?"

"No! No, it's only been a few moments, and this damned rebel has already killed over a thousand of our comrades!" One of the more vigorous Spiritual Kings in Thomas's group said in terror, disbelieving all this in the surroundings.

It had been genuinely terrifying!

Minos looked like a war machine, killing everyone who stood in his way, eliminating the lives of his enemies as if he were a god of war.

Just his glares alone had killed at least a hundred people on that battlefield, a terrifying thing in itself!

'And to think he's already grown to this point...' The Stone family representative thought to himself, impressed by the terrifying power displayed by Minos.

They could sense that young Stuart was continuously stealing his enemies' energies, something handy and skillful, which demonstrated his combat ability of a higher level.

When attacking his opponents, at no time did Minos target those he was absorbing energies from. On the contrary, it was as if he was using such people as batteries and then leaving them behind for his soldiers to deal with after him.

He was acting as efficiently as possible on this battlefield while eliminating as many enemies as he could, even though he was way ahead of the specialists on that team.

It was awe-inspiring!

As such, that Spiritual King could not help but be shocked by the capabilities of this young sovereign.

On the other hand, King Brown was red with rage, furious as he realized Minos' abilities and fighting mode.

"Brat Stuart!" He shouted with the full force of his being, drawing the attention of the late Albert's son.
