The Rise of the Black Plainchapter 1858: meeting of enemies

A few more days passed in the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom, and finally, the level 90 dragon that had been injured by the sky whale earlier in that space finished recovering and returned to the Flaming Empire.

When the level 90 dragon arrived in the Flaming Empire, near the Evergreen Empire border, he found out what had happened in this area weeks earlier, when a level 93 dragon and a level 92 sky whale had fought.

After hearing this, the dragon understood why no one from his tribe awaited him when he left the Spatial Kingdom.

The level 93 elder of his tribe had not been defeated. Still, after facing the level 92 sky whale, that creature could no longer wait on the central continent, which was much closer to the Sky Whale Tribe's territory than the Dragon Tribe.

Therefore, that creature had not hesitated to leave such a state by using a teleportation artifact he had with him, something valuable that could even take him back to the Continent of Beasts. But in his precarious situation, he had used it without hesitation, knowing that a war between the strongest tribes in the world could break out at any moment.

Meanwhile, none of the lookouts in the area had caused any trouble for such a dragon, as they had too many problems of their own to get involved in anymore.

Such was the case with Vico's and Maximillian's envoys in the area, who were waiting for their men to return to the Spatial Kingdom.

Even though Vico's envoys had been dead for days, the people of the Travisani family had no idea what had happened. Unlike in the real world, the soul lamps could not show the actual vital status of people who had died in the Spatial Kingdoms.

For these devices, the vital signs they displayed would remain active even for several decades after one's death within a Spatial Kingdom.

Those who participated in this event could not be sure of the vital status of their people until the one-year period was over, and the portals to that space were closed. When that happened, it would prove that anyone who did not return was dead or about to die!

So one of Vico's envoys was still in the area, watching the surroundings and waiting for his men.

...

Inside the defective Spatial Kingdom...

At this moment, Minos' group was finally in the last area of this space, the only part of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom they had not yet stopped to search for their group's beast enemies.

They were ready to give up and return to the Central Continent if they did not find Maximilian's people there. Even the beasts of this group agreed on that, for this space had its natural dangers that could put them between life and death at any moment.

There was no way they could spend months endangering themselves from enemies who may have already left such a space!

It was not uncommon for participants in such events to leave about halfway through the event. After all, many would die in the first few moments of the event, and the strongest would quickly achieve the results they hoped for.

Halfway through the event, this Spatial Kingdom would become empty and quiet.

But just as the beasts were losing hope of finding their enemies, their group suddenly noticed a trail of smoke in the forest they were in.

Realizing that someone was ahead of them, the group immediately moved more cautiously, getting closer as they watched to see if this was their target.

Minos was at the front of the group and soon saw three enemies, all blonde, with medium-level grade-4 armor on their bodies, sitting around a campfire.

He had never personally seen a member of the Evergreen family. Still, when he came across these people, he immediately identified them by their blonde, almost golden hair.

When he saw them, he clenched his fists and felt it was time for revenge!

He wanted to act against these people not only to fulfill his promise to the beasts of his group but also because of things that had happened to him in the past.

Minos had not forgotten the day he was attacked by the Blood Triangle Pirates leader, forcing him to go after the Seraphim Ancient Sarcophagus and eventually free Maximilian.

He had not forgotten the threats of the Blood Triangle Pirates and how the Evergreen Emperor had allowed that group to pressure him.

Finally, Calvert's actions bothered him greatly when that prince tried to force Gloria's faction to join his group.

Thinking of all this, Minos felt his blood run hot. "It's them. They are alone." He said to his group.

Upon hearing this, the nine-tailed foxes and the phoenix immediately changed their expressions while in their humanoid forms.

Forrest saw that Calvert and Drogo were there, both at level 91. Besides them, there was a third individual, someone at level 92.

'They won't stand a chance...' Forrest sighed as he imagined witnessing the deaths of his master's nephew and younger brother.

But even without the help of this group of Spiritual Church Demigods, Minos' group and those beasts were more than capable of facing and defeating those three.

As he thought about it, the entire group, except for the men from the Church, soon split up and surrounded Calvert's group, slowly changing their forms to show their true spiritual forms.

The beasts transformed into their bestial versions while the humans activated their soul techniques, revealing their Soul Avatars.

As they did so, they naturally attracted the attention of the three men sitting around a campfire in the middle of the forest.

Sensing enemies nearby, the three put aside their food and looked at Minos and his people.

"Minos Stuart!" Calvert opened his mouth as he shouted, looking at the Central Continent's most famous level 83 Sage.

The other two looked at Minos before realizing their former enemies were standing next to the Stuart family group.

Minos was with Forrest's group, and these three Evergreen family members soon realized the trouble they had gotten themselves into.

"Are you here for revenge?" Drogo asked with a haughty look, staring at the level 91 phoenix.

Because of the item he and his uncle had stolen from the group of beasts, he and Calvert had gone from level 90 to level 91!

Confident that Maximilian's protégé and the members of the Spiritual Church would not attack them with all their might, Drogo said arrogantly. "Stupid beasts. You'll end up as food for my mounts!

Forrest will not stand against two factions of the Spiritual Church, and Minos will not challenge Maximilian! You don't fool us. Stop pretending you're going to fight us!"
