The Rise of the Black Plainchapter 1393: battle 1

Boom!

Swooish!

"Ahhhhhh!"

Sounds of battle spread through the skies of Dry City as the two sides in the conflict began their battle.

On one side, 150 individuals were attacking the other, with about 2,000 people, most of whom gathered in large groups to face their opponents.

As for Abe's side, most of these mercenaries did not even know each other until weeks ago. So they were naturally fighting individually.

"Tsk!"

"Worms, I'll show you that numbers don't matter. At the end of the day, only those with the strength themselves will be able to excel!" One of the more arrogant individuals in Abe's group shouted as he attacked the group in front of him.

He activated his Soul Avatar, causing a crystalline 'shadow' to appear on top of his body, growing many meters upwards and sideways.

Then, this 'shadow,' which had similar contours to his, put its hands together and attacked with one of its offensive techniques.

Then, strong spiritual waves broke from the space between its hands into the group of dozens of Spiritual Emperors in formation a few dozen meters away from it.

'Die, worms!'

But as this level 75 opponent attacked the forces of Dry City, the members of the Spiritual Church present there began to act.

Seraphim Avatar!

Each of those low-level Spiritual Saints activated their 8th technique, causing 'shadows' similar to the opponent's to appear, except that they had large wings on their bodies.

"Seraph Scream!" They shouted together as they flew over the area in a formation that their actions would add up without negatively affecting each other.

Just like that, a powerful sound wave broke from the various Seraph Avatars, making the air seem to be vibrating like ocean waves towards that Western Empire expert.

After sensing that, such an individual could not change the direction of his attack and felt that he would be hit by something powerful. 'Bloody worms! Banding together like cowards!' He clenched his fists and pressed his teeth together as he looked toward the powerful spiritual 'waves' coming against his avatar.

Dimensional Slash!

Swooish!

One of the high-level Spiritual Saints on that battlefield made a horizontal movement toward the enemy 'waves' about to hit his ally.

His attack departed from the blade of his weapon, making a beam of spiritual energy fly horizontally toward that sound attack. Then, it made a tear in space, making the heavens tremble like a cut fabric.

"Seraphim's Wings!" The group of Church Spiritual Saints promptly changed their strategy, making their wings cover their bodies entirely as they huddled close together.

Gloria then made her offensive move against that person!

Seraphim Avatar: Angelic Domain!

She felt her body 'shrinking' as powerful energy concentrated inside her. Then, after contracting all of herself and going into a fetal position, she 'opened up' fully, causing such energy to expand into a semitransparent sphere tens of meters in radius.

When such a thing appeared on the battlefield, this woman's enemies immediately felt as if the Natural Laws had suddenly weakened in their surroundings.

It was as if something was suppressing them!

Divine Light!

Gloria did not stop there and promptly activated one of her offensive techniques. Such a move caused her avatar to bring its hands to the height of its forehead and then golden beams of energy to depart from there.

As this happened, where the golden beams of light passed, the air boiled while the elements and gases in the atmosphere burned, leaving behind the characteristic smell of combustion.

Sssss!

"Holy cr..." That high-level Spiritual Saint felt the power of Gloria's attack and raised his defenses, promptly setting aside his weaker allies and enemies to pay attention to this woman.

Gloria might only be someone at level 71, but this man felt that if he did not take care of himself, he might be bothered by this woman!

That would not be enough for his life to be at risk in one blow, but he noticed that she could threaten the life of a level 76 Spiritual Saint. Since the difference between him and someone of that level was not great, he could be injured, which could eventually spell calamity for him!

Ancestral Shield!

Vuup!

...

Clang!

"Ahhhhhh!"

Shouts came from one of the soldier groups of the Black Plain Army, where 50 soldiers were at this instant facing a level 73 Spiritual Saint.

The opponent's avatar was powerful, and he could easily inflict mental and physical injuries on those people. So they had to fight at an absolute disadvantage in this place, and any distraction could mean the end of them!

However, they were not helpless!

"Diabolic Shield Formation!" Eduard, level 64, shouted as he led his companions, each using medium-level grade-3 arrays to form a giant shield around the group.

They may be weaker in level than their opponents, but every member of Minos' forces was armed to the teeth!

They all had weapons and armor of the highest level they could use according to their limitations. But, at the same time, they all had one defensive and one offensive array, both of which were medium-level grade-3 ones.

Fighting a battle consisted not only of using one's own skills, talent, and understanding of spiritual techniques. It also consisted of how many crystals one had, that is, of the items in one's possession.

The enemies of Minos could be much richer, individually speaking, than the members of this fellow's forces. But Emperor Stuart had access to a fortune that none of those people could ever imagine!

With that, upon being pressured, Minos decided to show some of the financial might of the Black Plain Empire by arming all of his allies and soldiers with items of the highest level that they could use.

And with that, even though level 60 to 64 individuals were fighting against level 70 to 73 people, they were enduring, defending themselves, and counterattacking!

"Attack!" Elena Neel, level 64, shouted with all the force in her lungs as an army group, focused on attacking, activated their medium-level grade-3 arrays toward two level 73 opponents.

"Demon's Eye Formation!"

A gigantic eye condensed in the middle of the formation of 50 soldiers led by Elena, while dark mist spread in its surroundings.

It flashed in the direction of the Spiritual Saints, emitting trembling sensations to many in the surrounding area.

"What the hell is that?"

"That... That doesn't look common!" Even the mid-level Spiritual Saints in the surroundings felt bad sensations coming from such a thing, as they saw part of Minos' earnings from the God of Death's inheritance.

Minos had collected several items in that inheritance that did not need to be destroyed because of the Goddess of Life's mission. Among those artifacts were the blueprints of this offensive array, which could be combined to form something compelling.

Because of such a thing, one side of Abby had to see something of that evil cultivator's group helping her cause by eliminating the first enemies of this battle!

Zum!

The space shook in the surroundings of those two Spiritual Saints, and then, as if invisible teeth had 'fallen' on them, the two were shredded in a matter of seconds.

Even their soul avatars were completely obliterated, leaving not a single remnant behind!
