The Rise of the Black Plain

'These two men are at level 48, while the woman is at level 49...' Minos thought about it, looking at the three people of the Silva family.

For him, by the time he saw that these people belonged to the Silva family, Minos had already decided their fate. He was not someone who would kill an entire family, but those who came after him or who provoked him in some way could expect the worst!

But even though he was already decided on dealing with these unwanted visitors, Minos still wanted to know what they were doing here.

"Ehh, can I know what the three of you are doing in my city?" He asked politely. There was no need for him to insult the other side.

"Hmph, if we want to get in, we'll do it. We don't need to justify it!" Austin said sharply. In this man's opinion, Minos was acting like he was someone important, but he was just a worm...

Soon after, Sarah Silva said curiously. "Oh! It seems that the young Minos is even more talented than his father. Only 17-years-old and has already reached level 40!" She stopped for a second, laughing strangely, and then said. "I imagine it has to do with how this place has improved so much..."

"Why don't you tell us about it? So, we can give you a chance..." She said, smiling at the young Stuart. "I see that the butler Dillian is also doing very well... I wonder how someone at his age can cultivate so fast..."

Dillian just smiled at her and said. "Hahaha, Sarah Silva, I haven't seen you in a long time. I don't know why you came here, but unfortunately for you, this was the biggest mistake of your life!"

"Hmph, these people are hilarious..." The oldest man in the trio from the Silva family said this with contempt. For him, the numbers were useless. Only true strength dictated the result.

That was what he and many of the Silva family believed!

"Hahaha, you are very confident... But I must say that the only ones who need a chance here today are you!"

After this, Minos gave the signal for his soldiers to act. There were about 100 of them there, and each had already heard their young master's plans when they saw these three from a distance.

They would split into three groups, one with 50 soldiers who would face the strongest person among the enemies, the woman named Sarah. While the other two groups, with about 25 soldiers each, would deal with the other two.

Minos wanted to take care of this woman since there was a big difference in levels between his soldiers and her. Thus, many of these soldiers could die at her hands if they were not careful.

Regarding the other two, Minos was confident that these two groups, together with his support, could beat them without any significant problems. After all, even if they were at a high level, they were still only members of noble families from the north of the Central Continent.

With that, none of them could compare to the young Ruth, who had several techniques of Silver-grade. Minos alone could already defeat one of these two!

Sure, he couldn't defeat Ruth at level 46 with her Silver-grade techniques. Still, he would surely be a match for ordinary cultivators with Level 48 and Black-grade techniques!

But it would undoubtedly be as challenging a fight as the one he had with the young Troy in the Spiritual Tournament. And since the goal here was just to kill, the young Stuart would not fight directly with these people.

No, facing one of these opponents alone would be stupid. The right thing to do in such a situation would be to take advantage of the numerical advantage that the group of Minos had and annihilate the enemy team!

There was no point in taking risks, just to give these people an exciting fight.

No, this was not a joke. If the soldiers didn't fight with everything, they had, from the beginning, even if they won, there would undoubtedly be casualties!

And that was unacceptable for Minos since he had the numerical advantage in this situation.

Anyway, quickly, the dozens of people here with Minos separated into the three groups, preparing to attack their targets.

"Haha, it looks like these insects think they can go against us, just because of their numbers!" Dennis said that with a ridiculous smile on his face. He found all this resistance meaningless...

For Dennis, it was ridiculous that these people thought they could fight the three of them, who were already at level 48, while their opponents were barely at level 41!

Didn't they understand the difference between the levels? Unless they had higher-level techniques, it would be impossible to fight people of higher levels!

But for this bunch of hillbilly, it would be impossible for them to have better techniques than the ones that the Silva family provided...

After hearing this, Austin prepared to fight, as he said. "We are going to teach these hillbilly people how a big family fight!"

"Hmm, if you have a lot of work with these worms, we just put that brat first. The rest of them will lose hope of fighting after this happens!" Sarah then turned to the group of 50 and moved her neck from side to side. "This will be a good fight, haha!"

At this point, finally, the dozens of Minos' soldiers began to activate their techniques one after the other.

Wind Palm!

...

Hammering the World!

Rumble!

Suddenly the place became a chaotic battlefield. Several blades, fists, projectiles, and many other forms of attacks were sent from side to side, cutting the air and creating minor marks of battles in that place.

Boom!

As the chaotic conflict began, Minos immediately activated his techniques while unleashing sword blows in the direction of the two men.

Indestructible Body!

Explosive Steps!

Spatial Sword!

He did not want to use his support technique because many allies were fighting in this place. And since he still couldn't control his Devouring Art, to the degree that it didn't affect his associates, so using it here would be a mistake.

Not to mention that the difference in cultivation between him and his enemies was huge. So, in this case, even if he could ignore his allies, he would still have almost no real gain from activating his support technique.

Minos then began to move quickly across the battlefield while delivering vertical and horizontal blows with his sword.

Swooish!

Swooish!

Blades more than 70 centimeters long appeared, cutting through the air, traveling at high speeds towards the two men in the enemy group!

"Hehe, does this brat still want to get involved in the fight? He..." While Austin wanted to speak, he suddenly realized the incredible strength contained in the blades created by Minos.

Each of them was almost as strong as his own attacks!

'Ah, shit!'

He wanted to shout at himself, but now it was too late, he had to defend himself from this attack!

Earth Shield!

Austin immediately circulated his defense technique, while almost simultaneously, a large round shield appeared in front of him. It had the appearance of a piece of concrete, which covered a large part of its user's body.

Boom!

An explosion sounded when the blow finally collided with Austin's defense. Immediately after that, the blonde man's body was thrown into the distance, hitting his back against a rock that was there.

"Ahhh!"

But Austin had no chance to regret what had happened since many blows were already coming towards him. After all, he might have managed to dodge attacks by Minos' soldiers before, but now it was different...

After receiving the blow from Minos, Austin had lost some of the focus of the fight. He was now at a disadvantage, showing vulnerability to the many opponents who wanted to kill him!

Meanwhile, Dannis had managed to cope with Minos' attack while deflecting quickly.

He had been different from Austin and had not underestimated the young Stuart. He had immediately felt the force of the blades thrown at him, so he had done everything to prevent this attack from hitting his body.

'Unbelievable! This young man is a true monster!' He thought about it, passing on what had just happened. And not only were Minos' blows powerful, but those of his subordinates were also quite decent.

"It seems that this Minos is training all his subordinates with Black-grade techniques!" The one who was better off among the three shouted at his two companions.

He was very shocked by this. After all, not even the noble families, which had many specialists, dared to do this!

'Is he not afraid of being betrayed by these subordinates?' He thought to himself while avoiding and sometimes defending himself from the attacks that came to him.

In the Spiritual World, families almost always tried to protect their most valuable techniques, preventing their power from draining over strangers!

Because of that, what Minos was doing sounded very dangerous to these people...

Anyway, the fight was going on, but for now, no one had died. The trio had barely managed to attack, as they had to worry about defending themselves and avoiding many attacks!

As a result, this was a very disputed battle in which the two sides seemed to be in balance.

At this point, the group leader finally made up her mind when she thought. 'I have to kill this Minos! Otherwise, he will end up destroying my Silva family in the future!'

She was extremely shocked by the power that the young Stuart unleashed during this battle. So, she had finally moved quickly towards where Minos was.

She felt that he was running out of energy, and even though he was almost as strong as level 48 cultivators, she was a lot stronger than him.

"Die!"

Cutting Wires!

Suddenly, many wires cut towards Minos' neck, passing through the air at high speed!

Zum!

She wanted to kill him with this blow, ending any threat to her family.
