The Rise of the Black Plain

"Minos Stuart, you traitorous brat!" General Silva shouted harshly, glaring coldly in Minos' direction as he closed his fists tightly. "Your father must be deeply disappointed..."

"His son has become a traitor who spits in the plate that fed him!" So, he said, oblivious to the fact that at the moment, Minos' level was almost as high as Albert's when this fellow died.

But while General Silva ignored this tremendous cultivation speed of Minos, the others there did not fail to notice such a thing.

'This is terrifying!'

'In just less than six years, this brat has already reached such a level!' Some of those Silva family members thought about it, while Otis and Adrian looked at each other significantly.

"There is something very wrong with this brat!" One of them commented to the other while squeezing the weapon he held even harder.

"We can't let him grow any longer, or he alone will become a threat to our entire family!" Patriarch Otis agreed with the supreme elder, already looking in Minos' direction with a murderous intent that was hard to miss.

On the other hand, other Silva family experts in that place were already beginning to recognize some of the faces of Minos' group.

"Gill family..." One of them commented aloud as he looked at the face of patriarch Liam and felt the fury of finally meeting some of the people from that family.

Previously, the Silva family forces had attacked the headquarters of House Gill in hopes of resolving their issues with that action. But surprisingly, there was not even a single member of that organization in that place on such an occasion.

On the contrary, only a few people who provided outside services for the Gill family were in that headquarters when their attack had taken place.

As such, the Silvas had not only failed to take revenge but had also wasted much of their resources on that occasion!

Therefore, their hatred for the Gill's was 'louder' than ever!

"You damned cowards!"

"Let's see where you will run to today!" A level 55 individual said solemnly, looking at the Gill family members in that group approaching theirs.

But upon hearing all these comments from their enemies, Minos' side said nothing, just having continued with their plans.

The young Stuart then commented to those people in his group. "I will eliminate two of them at once to facilitate the actions of the rest of you." 

"Then, Emlyn and I will fight the strongest enemy here while the rest of you will deal with the remaining 13 opponents." He said, looking to the sides, observing the faces of each of those people in his group. "But since we will have the advantage in numbers, try to fight in groups to eliminate the strongest enemies first."

"We'll deal with the weaker ones in a second moment."

"OK!" They all said simultaneously.

Then Minos began to run even faster than the individuals in his group, getting further and further ahead of them until he prepared to attack.

At that moment, he had a sword in each of his hands; both were pointed at the ground, angled so that both were 240 degrees away from each other.

And while Minos was running with these swords in this position, he finally got close enough to those opponents to start using his techniques against them!

Infinite Dream!

His eyes brightly shone as he looked in the direction of the weakest enemy there, level 53, the only one who could be taken by surprise by this technique.

And soon, a powerful flow of unique spiritual energy shot out of that young man's eyes, heading straight for that person, a man with a white beard and tan skin.

Meanwhile, young Stuart activated his other techniques one after the other. With this, it didn't take long until he began to feel the flow of spiritual energy coming from the big black ring around him, making him feel much stronger.

Spatial Sword!

In that instant, he sliced the air in front of him, dancing with his swords, before finally, two mighty blades shook the surrounding space, heading towards two targets.

One of them, a level 54 enemy, someone Minos wanted to take down as quickly as possible.

The other was simply the patriarch Otis, who at this moment was getting ready to run towards the level 56 Feathered Serpent, who was in Minos' group.

Swooish!

"What?"

"How can this be happening?"

"But he's only at level 50!"

Several shocked comments went off in that place, as the enemies of Minos' group realized how capable he had already become.

'Damn it! We took too long!'

"He's already gotten out of control!" Someone said, just before Minos' attacks finally hit their targets.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" Someone screamed in excruciating pain as his defenses quickly began to break down, and the spiritual blade that Minos threw sliced toward his neck!

At the same time, the target of the mental technique had barely realized that he had been attacked when he suddenly found himself in a dark place, where he could feel nothing, hear nothing.

It was as if he had lost contact with his whole body, having lost all his physical senses!

But not only that, this place was devoid of spiritual energy. Hence, this level 53 Spiritual King could not use his spiritual sense either.

'What's going on?'

'Where am I?'

'Why can't I feel my body?' He wondered, feeling an unusual terror, slowly becoming more and more agitated, not understanding his situation.

But losing all senses was one of the worst experiences one could ever have!

According to the experts of this world, a person who went through this would quickly have his mental state degraded to the point of no return. Afterward, unimaginable delusions would cause the person to go insane until his mental structures completely break down.

And in feeling an unprecedented panic, even the strongest would die within minutes!

That is, of course, considering that such a person had not yet surpassed the physical limits imposed by the body, that is, were below level 70.

But this was not the case for this level 53 cultivator. As such, he was bound to fall!

Puff!

And while that person quickly fell into an endless spiral of degradation, the head of one of those Minos' targets was separated from the rest of that body!

That had been pretty quick. Even before Otis tried to defend himself from young Stuart's attack, that Spiritual King running towards Eda earlier was unable to protect himself and was killed.

Crash!

"Ahhhh!"

"Bastard!" Otis brandished in a fury, right after being pushed back several meters and feeling his hand sore as he held his own sword.

He wanted to deal with the strongest enemies in Minos' group and then capture this young man. But all of a sudden, this opponent of his had done the unexpected and started the fight on his own, attacking those other two and even him, someone at level 58!

'Damn it. I should have killed that worm six years ago!' He thought in disgust, feeling a terrible sensation in his throat.

He hadn't killed young Stuart back then to avoid unnecessary complications. And since Minos was an insect in his eyes back then, all the signs had led this man to ignore Albert's son.

But now that he was seeing the son of the person he once planned to take down, someone who had already grown to the point of endangering even himself, Otis couldn't help but feel bad.

In the end, tying up loose ends seemed like the right thing to do!

But he at least felt that he was still a little stronger than Minos.

'I have to eliminate him now!'

'If he grows any more significant, not even King Brown will be able to stop him!' Otis thought about this as he had his eyes fluttered, focusing in Minos's direction.

At this moment, he was not even bothering to look at the two fellow family members who had just fallen in the vicinity.

He looked at Adrian and the rest there and said. "Help me separate this brat from the rest of his group."

"I will eliminate him!" 

And upon hearing this, those who were shocked by Minos' frightening power, General Silva among them, turned their attention to what Otis had just said. 

There seemed to be no other alternative here. They all felt that eliminating Minos was the only thing that mattered!

And because only Otis appeared to have the ability to fight Minos, they all agreed, immediately beginning to make room for that man as they moved in the direction of the other enemies!
