When Minos saw the Spiritual Saint using the sacrifice, he immediately became more grave and made his three wives come closer to him.
Chaotic Gravity: Attraction!
The bodies of the three quickly came towards one of his hands as they shouted his name. "Minos!"
But he paid no attention to them and teleported them into the Spatial Kingdom while absorbing the energies of the two Spiritual Emperors.
'Now that they are safe, it's my turn to act!' He decided to counterattack that opponent to produce something that could become useful to him later.
It was risky for him to show his powers in this place, the capital of his currently biggest enemy power. But the sacrifice of that Spiritual Saint could no longer be stopped, and one way or another, this moment would draw the attention of influential people to this place.
Since he would have to return from the Spatial Kingdom alongside his wives to this place in question later, it would already generate suspicion against him. Therefore, he preferred to launch an alternative for him before the worst happened to have more possibilities after this decisive moment!
Thus, he soon moved his fingers and 'grabbed' the air, raising his arms vertically over his head.
The two small black rings circling his hostages disappeared until one of them emerged from his feet, climbing up his body until it was between his hands, spinning counterclockwise.
As the ring began to rotate on its vertical and horizontal axis, Minos concentrated all gravity on one of the points between his hands.
Devouring Art: Black Hole!
Chaotic Gravity: Black Hole!
As the Spiritual Saint felt weaker and weaker with his sacrifice, watching this person's movement with curiosity, the sky darkened under that area along with the combination of the two techniques.
Lightning began to appear on the horizon of Vogel's capital, drawing the attention of every single local citizen, many of them on the streets looking up at the skies in doubt of what was happening.
The black ring accelerated until it disappeared completely. At the same time, the deformation over that point in space became denser and denser, generating a small black sphere the size of a fingernail.
When that sphere formed, it shook before Minos hurled it toward that Spiritual Saint with all the remaining strength in his body.
As he did so, he felt his body becoming much weaker, and pallor appeared on his face. "You will die alone and still give me your powers!" He shouted before disappearing from that place with a smile on his face.
The Spiritual Saint saw all this in his last second of life, feeling a little disappointed, but given his situation, there was not much else to think about.
'What could that be?' He saw the black sphere flying towards him, something even more sinister than the ball of energy generated by his sacrifice.
Meanwhile, the two Spiritual Emperors woke up from their states.
"Ahhh, what a pain!"
"What happened? I..." One of them was about to ask when he saw the situation of their leader.
...
Meanwhile, in the temple of the Spiritual Church in the capital of Vogel...
"Uh?"
"Did you guys feel that?" The three strongest Spiritual Saints in this place looked at the same time in the direction of a part of this city, sensing something strange.
"That looks like a..." One of the three opened his mouth, shocked that someone at their cultivation stage would do something like that in the middle of a city with millions of people!
"A sacrifice!"
"Damn it!"
They immediately flew from that place to where an unprecedented tragedy was about to happen!
...
The royal palace...
The king was just this instant finishing up some of his business in the royal throne hall when he suddenly felt his spine go cold.
"What?" He looked in the same direction that each of his royal guards was already looking in with wide eyes.
"No way. Who would do that?" He rose from his throne and prepared to fly.
"Guards, with me!"
"We must stop this, or hundreds of thousands of people will die today!" He shouted in a deep tone, feeling a horrible sensation at being challenged in such a way.
He was already starting to get angry, but in front of this situation where millions of his citizens could be affected and many of his troops injured, he could not expose his hatred now.
No, he had to get together with the other local experts as soon as possible to contain the destructive explosion of sacrifice by the hallucinated terrorist attacking them!
But in his subconscious, he was already shaking with rage, feeling so angry at someone's attitude for the first time in his life.
'Who is this? I will kill his whole family as punishment!'
...
"That..." Abe, who was also in the royal palace, looked out one of his office windows and felt a chill run through his soul.
His advisors and bodyguards also felt the ominous sensation of the sacrifice of someone at level 70 and could not help but open their mouths.
"Damn it!"
"Let's get to that place immediately! We can't let an explosion of that level hit the city!" Abe shouted in a hurry, knowing that the sacrifice of someone so strong could damage almost his entire city!
Obviously, the most luxurious and high-end properties, such as the royal palace and the Spiritual Church temple, would not be destroyed easily. But almost all the buildings and people below the 8th stage in this city would be at risk from this incident!
Considering this alone, none of them hesitated to set out from there to act together with other local forces to contain the destructive explosion of such a sacrifice.
But while they were doing this for the sake of the local forces and honor of the royal family, one of them was beginning to feel a dreadful premonition!
"I hope this sacrifice is not Gregory's doing..." One of them said the name of the Spiritual Saint who had faced Minos' group.
Gulp!
...
As Spiritual Saints from all over that city flew to the focus site of Gregory's sacrifice in the basement of that building, the decisive moment finally arrived.
The black ball of energy created by Gregory's assertive act shrank in size and then concentrated all its energy, trying to get ready to explode with everything it had.
But while this was happening, the black hole of Minos was engulfing the space in its surroundings, with the two Spiritual Emperors being sucked into its interior like macaroons.
In this unique situation, the dried corpse of the Spiritual Saint disintegrated until only his artifacts remained, which soon flew toward that lightless spot.
And as one side of the black energy ball exploded, the other was swallowed by that strange thing, creating mighty energy waves in the area, making everything in the surrounding area tremble.
But even though the building in question was falling, it all headed toward Minos' black hole, which did not distinguish between spiritual beings, energy, matter, or whatever. It simply swallowed whatever came in contact with its event horizon, including the powerful explosion generated by the sacrifice of that Spiritual Saint!
Thus, in the blink of an eye, dozens of Spiritual Saints faced the most extraordinary situation of their lives, the first sacrifice they had seen that did not create a devastating explosion.
But the thing that appeared in the sequence was even worse!
