The Rise of the Black Plain

Seeing a gigantic shadow above him, Minos realized that if he didn’t act quickly, his entire yacht would be destroyed by the gigantic thing falling on him.

An entire island was falling over where he was passing, an island that was not small, by the way.

For comparison, this island was so large that it could easily contain a city of 100,000 inhabitants on it.

Its size was many times that of Minos’ yacht, large enough to cast a huge shadow over where he was passing, even when it was still kilometers away.

Minos then set his yacht to sail at its maximum speed while using Chaotic Gravity and all his compression on Gravitational Law to escape.

He tried to open a spatial crack to escape through a wormhole. Still, as he tried to do so, he felt the spatial distortion caused by that falling island hindering his escape attempt.

‘Shit! The damn island is stabilizing the space it’s falling into!’ He realized the problem.

There was a phenomenon in the Spiritual World that caused floating islands to collapse once they reached very significant heights.

A floating island depended for its continuation on the difference between the forces on it. Suppose the repulsion to spiritual energy was greater than its weight. In that case, it would float. 

But this was not a simple phenomenon!

If the island kept rising when it passed the limit of 10,000 kilometers in height from ground level, strangely enough, these islands lost part of their spiritual energy-repelling properties.

By losing some of the force that made it float, such an island would plummet. 

With the gravitational acceleration, it would gain in its fall, the effect of repulsion to spiritual energy diminished, and it would fall faster and faster!

Because of the way such an island fell, it was not uncommon for all the laws about where it fell to be messed up, almost as if an array was controlling them so that they didn’t function according to normality.

So Minos could not escape that way while this very rare phenomenon was happening above him.

‘What shitty luck! How could this just happen to me?’ He pressed his teeth together, feeling the sensation of someone in such a rare and negative situation like this.

Floating islands rarely reached such high altitudes for this phenomenon to arise. In fact, for something like this to happen, the island either had to be uninhabited or had to have been ‘traveling’ alone for hundreds of thousands of years.

Few islands met these requirements, so this phenomenon happened only a few times every million years!

Just when Minos passed through this area, such a thing happened!

He then tried to use his techniques differently, slowly sinking his yacht while using as much of his Chaotic Gravity as he to push away the water in the surroundings.

Minos could not produce bubbles like the one created by Ross. Yet, he was fully capable of repelling the water molecules in his surroundings, producing an elliptical area. 

The hull of his yacht was in contact with the water. The upper area was where the seawater trembled as if a fabric separated them from the layer of air and the sea.

In the blink of an eye, Minos could again put his entire yacht into the underwater world.

His idea was simple. Use the water that would cushion the fall of that huge island to protect himself while he went as fast as possible to the ocean floor.

He didn’t want to return to that area, having to go through the zone of darkness again. But having no choice, he immediately went ahead with this idea, moving hundreds of meters every second to the bottom of the sea.

After 30 seconds, the free-falling island finally came close to the sea’s surface, frightening all the marine beings in the surroundings, who had not yet noticed it was falling.

When it finally touched the water, the surface below it immediately contracted hundreds of meters downwards while the water on its sides rose even more significantly.

This would generate waves hundreds of meters later, but at the moment, it only created something that suddenly made all beings in the vicinity temporarily lose control over their swimming.

Many creatures in that area of first contact, one going up to a kilometer away from the initial point of collision, died due to the intense ‘shock’ of those two parts.

But as it entered the water to descend into the depths of that part of the Ancestral Sea, that gigantic chunk produced a huge drop of water that rose above where it fell.

That drop was the size of the lake of the Spatial Kingdom of Minos and contained countless creatures, which luckily survived the contact of that island with the sea.𝞸𝚟𝑳𝐞xt.𝓬𝚘𝑚

But they were all agitated, feeling the effect of being inside this drop that had received significant amounts of energy from the previous collision.

The energy there was so chaotic that this gigantic drop of water floated over the sea for a few moments while the surrounding area formed gigantic waves, with a marine depression just below closing in.

Meanwhile, the huge island was finally fully submerged, losing much of its previous speed but still descending to the bottom of the sea at great speed.

Minos looked up from the zone of darkness and saw that, although it was losing more and more of its speed, that land mass was still approaching him rapidly.

Because of this, he put more of his strength into it, catching a level 83 fish in his path, another organism running away from it, and stealing its cultivation base.

He was already in contact with several high-level beings from this part of the zone of darkness, but even acting against that sea creature, none of these high-level elders in the surroundings bothered.

They were more interested in what was falling, something that could scare even them!

The fall of such an island would not threaten the lives of beasts above level 90. But strangely, those beings in the surrounding area felt that island oppressing them as it sank to the ocean floor.

Because of this, no one was bothered by a human passing by while using a sea beast to escape.
