The Rise of the Black Plain

As he initiated the first move of the Divine Sword, Minos transformed his will into razor-sharp blades, causing thousands of energy blades to appear on the outskirts of those islands.

From where he was floating in the air, surrounded by six robots attacking him, a huge semi-transparent golden blade formed and appeared around his body, covering every angle of the enemy’s attack.

Just as they were about to strike the Soul Avatar of Minos, these metallic creatures encountered the opponent’s powerful ability and found a solid defense but also a counterattack.

As it prepared its blade to decapitate the head of the Soul Avatar of Minos, one of the level 95 artificial creatures felt its weapon collide with the huge blade around the projection of Emperor Stuart’s soul.

Clang!

Even though it was mighty and capable of hurting even level 96 humans from this world with such a move, that robot felt its weapon stop and its attack force come back at it, causing it to move its mechanisms to avoid being thrown backward.

The other five robots faced a similar situation. At the last moment of their movements, they ran into that giant blade around Minos, unable to overcome the thing.

“That…” One of them opened its metallic mouth, and it looked at it strangely.

As members of a technological civilization, they were very good at certain things. But when it came to the secrets of the technologies that had been cultivated in this primitive world for millions of years, they still had doubts.

Even the artificial intelligence of these creatures couldn’t fathom or understand the abilities of the spiritual people of this world.

When they encountered the sword in their path, the six robots realized it was not just a defense.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm “My will is infinite blades!” Minos commented as the environment around this figure of spiritual energy and natural laws flashed, making each of these robots feel that something terrible was about to happen to them.

“Watch out!” The strongest of the group, who was a bit away from those six robots, said, but it was too late.

The moment its words left its sound structure, those six individuals felt blades like the one that had appeared around Minos materialize underneath them, slicing vertically upward.

Swooish!

In a single instant, all six of them were cut down by Minos’ will, while everyone on the battlefield, whether it was the busy allies of Emperor Stuart or the biological beings of the Mechanic Empire, realized how dangerous this fusion of three techniques was to the enemies.

In addition to the thousands of blades slicing through thousands of cubic kilometers of space, Minos alone mortally attacked six beings with combat and defense skills between level 94.

Even though he was only temporarily at level 89, he acted against those six in a single instant, causing their bodies to crack as they were broken in various parts.

“Shit! Is he that strong?” One of the robots fleeing from Minos’ nearby blades, but also from the attacks of Emperor Stuart’s allies, shouted as it flew at high speed.

“An enemy with the potential to destroy the empire can’t be easy!” Said a robot trapped by several tentacles as a giant whale attacked it with its tail fin.

“But can he keep fighting after all he’s done?” One of them asked, feeling that as incredible as Minos was, this was his limit, but also not enough to guarantee victory for the Spiritual World in this battle.

Minos saw his six dead opponents, but he did not see any Lightning Tribulations forming.

‘It seems that what happened before only happens when their essence is removed from their metallic bodies.’ He thought to himself as he breathed heavily and began to feel the effects of merging three techniques at once.

Nowadays, the damage from using his supreme weapon wouldn’t be as high as in the past. But it was still quite costly for Minos. In no more than two minutes, he would reach his maximum, and he would not be able to fight anymore.

If he could not finish this confrontation by then, he would risk meeting his end in this area of the North Sea!

He kept his thoughts about the nature of these alien synthetic creatures in his mind and moved around, looking at the other high-level robots in this area.

Meanwhile, his many blades destroyed some of the enemy’s war power, mainly targeting the ships, spaceships, and structures not protected by barriers on those islands.

As much as he had dodged the Mechanic Empire’s powerful weapons at the beginning of the battle, Minos didn’t underestimate the power of those weapons.

Some of them were so powerful that they could even hurt high-level Demigods!

Fortunately, they weren’t powers controlled by living creatures, so they were easier to dodge.

However, they were one of the main dangers in the area. Whenever he had the chance, Minos would direct the many blades generated by his will to destroy such structures.

The mind-powered beings of his crew moved skillfully at that moment, with the mermaids singing while the nine-tailed foxes tried to distract those who tried to protect or control those armaments.

Meanwhile, the combat robots were focused on directly confronting Minos or his strongest allies, so they couldn’t protect the warlike artifacts in the surrounding area.

Seeing this from inside the area protected by his defensive formation, Iktun sensed that either side would not easily win today’s battle.

While 7 of the 18 robots had already fallen, 2 of them in bad shape in the hands of Minos’ allies, the spaceships and ships of the North Sea sovereign group were hit hard by the many enemy blades.

The ships hit first couldn’t withstand the combined attacks of the surrounding sea creatures and Minos’ blades and soon began to sink. At the same time, the spaceships fell from the sky in flames, with much debris breaking off from the damage to their structures.

Amidst this, the robots that controlled these armaments and cannons around the outer areas of these islands were destroyed by Minos’ high-level movement.

‘Minos Stuart… Can you survive this day?” the level 91 Demigod asked himself, fearing his own death but confident in the victory of the Mechanic Empire.

The defeat of his people in this battle was not yet decided. There were still 11 Protectors fighting while their defenses stood. Meanwhile, most of their opponents were already showing signs of exhaustion.

And if they fell today, the Mechanic Empire group would reach this world in 30 years. Would Minos reach the level necessary to guarantee the Spiritual World’s victory in that time?

Even though Doctor Caun’s predictions were pessimistic, Minos would have to improve a lot in a short time. In the meantime, the people of Iktun would just have to finish building the universal wormhole to this world!

‘If you don’t die today, Minos, I’ll make sure that you’ll be the first to be hunted down by my people when they arrive!’ Iktun thought as he sent a message to the Mechanic Empire while watching the high-level battle in the surrounding area.
