The Rise of the Black Plainchapter 1604: time to go

Making up his mind about what to do, Minos used his abilities to the best of his ability as he took a low-level grade-4 array to contain the power of his black hole.

With that, that region of space began to shrink in size soon after revealing his body to the women of the Flowers Kingdom, while the mirrored sphere in his hand contained the power of that region of space.

That Black Hole Bomb was so strong that even the strongest of those women felt a little threatened by it, frowning as she didn't expect Minos to be so capable already.

Somehow or another, this guy had found a way to get rid of a Spiritual Demigod and still injure four Spiritual Sages, three high-level and one mid-level.

This was impressive!

At the same time, that weapon was valuable in the hands of Emperor Stuart, who these women knew could use such a thing to create cultivation halls in his state.

'It seems that the Black Plain has gained something from this...' One of them considered, putting aside the bitterness that had been generated this day.

Meanwhile, Minos finished containing the power of that region of space, producing something that would soon help him create cultivation rooms for Spiritual Sages to train outside the Spatial Kingdom.

But Minos had already noticed those women from the Flowers Kingdom and quickly went to where they were.

"Thank you for coming to my city to help me, flower warriors." He said in a sincere tone. "Today, my city suffered at the hands of these pirates, so I will not forget the support."

"That is nothing, Your Majesty." The strongest one there said. "We haven't even done anything. Your Majesty is already quite strong and made a Demigod run, haha."

"Hmm, that guy was boiling with rage." The other women commented briefly to Minos, not long afterward departing back to their posts in the empire.

They didn't care about Minos' plans and the trouble he would get into because of such people. Their partnership with him was limited to help like this, and they would not be involved in anything else.

Hence, soon Minos was at the side of his high-level elders, with whom he had plenty to talk about right now.

"Elders, prepare yourselves, I will soon be leaving on a journey outside the empire, so I will leave the state under your care." He said seriously, with a dark expression.

Those people already knew about the possibility of Minos going in search of what that map in the Spatial Kingdom led to if something happened to those people from the Blood Triangle Pirates or even the Spiritual Church.

Considering what had just happened, they did not question Minos about whether it was appropriate for him to go ahead with these dangerous plans.

His grandmother, level 79, then asked him. "When will you be leaving? Who will you be taking with you?"

"I will leave as soon as possible. In a week at most, the time needed to get everything organized." He said. "I intend to go alone, so I leave no trace of my movements.

In any case, I don't believe you will have much trouble in my absence. The pressures from the Church will continue as they are now, but without the risk of battles. As for this group, their problem is with me, and after today, I believe it will be a while before they move again."

Minos judged that these people from the Blood Triangle Pirates would try to analyze his strength before moving again. At the same time, they had seen women from the Flowers Kingdom on the Black Plain, which could hinder them from acting.

In the short term, nothing should happen.

But he couldn't be sure if it would stay that way in a few months, so he wanted to act as quickly as possible.

After months, the enemy group would certainly try new strategies to get at him!

"What if they attack us in the meantime?" Someone there asked, feeling unsure about the threat of Spiritual Demigods.

Minos reassured his people. "That won't happen. The Blood Triangle Pirates are subordinates of the Evergreen family, of which Calvert is a part. They can't damage the structures of our state and wipe out the potential of the faction they want to absorb.

That would be like giving up Gloria's faction, something that doesn't make sense now."

Minos knew that the big Church factions in that state were interested in his and Gloria's faction because of the Black Plain. Therefore, the better that state was, the further that faction could go and the better it would be for one of them to absorb it.

Damaging the structures of that state would be foolish on that group's part.

Minos continued. "But it is true that there are risks. They may change their position in the future. So I will settle my affairs as quickly as possible."

The people there agreed to this, feeling less pressured by the threat of 10th-stage cultivators.

But that was only a temporary relief. They knew that.

'We must urgently advance to the 9th stage...'

Many of them thought about it, clenching their fists in determination.

"What will we do about the Spatial Kingdom?" One of the elders asked, speaking very low, as there were no more defenses over Dry City now.

Minos looked at that person and said to everyone there, "I will not take, nor bring people there now that we are without the arrays destroyed by these people. So those here will stay in the empire while I travel."

"How will we make progress, Your Majesty? It will be difficult for people like me to progress outside of there..." An elder said this.

Minos then commented. "No. With this Black Hole Bomb, the cultivation room where it will stay will be able to help even level 86 cultivators, so for you, level 78 and 79 people, cultivating in such a place won't be like cultivating in the other special rooms in my state."

"Oh?"

The people there felt relieved, but not only that, happy because even in the presence of Minos, for some periods, part of them could not go to the Spatial Kingdom because they had to fulfill duties in the empire.

But with a cultivation room capable of enabling their advancement to the 9th stage outside the Spatial Kingdom, where they could train even in Minos' absence, they couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.

With that said, Minos and those people dispersed while the local population began to comment on the local events, slowly spreading the rumor about their leader's strength.

In a matter of days, the event involving Minos and a Demigod would spread throughout the entire territory, creating yet another legend about the emperor.

In the meantime, Minos would focus on resolving matters crucial to his departure, again preparing his state for his absence.

This time he knew absolutely nothing about what might happen on his journey, leaving in search of the Seraphim Ancient Sarcophagus, something he didn't know where it was, nor what kind of problems would arise on his way.

So he needed to prepare himself and could not leave immediately!

As for the map of that place, it would not take him long to pick it up in the Spatial Kingdom without drawing the attention of his watcher from the Eastern Empire.

Thus, the time had finally come for him to solve the mystery behind that item!
