Chapter 2164 End of the Continental Tournament (2)
Seeing what was happening in his organization's Spatial Kingdom, Merritt got up from where he was sitting to watch the end of the event.
He looked at Aurae, but the woman had already gotten up from where she was and left for that region of space.
As much as Kendrick was only a level 77 Spiritual Saint, by pouring the immortal energy he had into his fusion, he had created something capable of threatening the integrity of that Spatial Kingdom!
It wasn't enough to destroy the entire Spatial Kingdom where the Secret Hunt was taking place. Still, it was enough to damage it to the point where the entire structure of that space could be thrown into chaos. That could endanger the lives of all living beings in that place and make it difficult for people to get in and out of there for a long time.
Fixing the Spatial Kingdoms wasn't easy and would require the work of more than one God.
Precisely because it was difficult, Spatial Kingdoms that were damaged were usually abandoned, as it was often easier to build new cultivation sanctuaries than to repair an existing space.
Not only did Aurae move to prevent the worst, but Vico and Maximillian did the same, quickly appearing in the region of space where Kendrick had made his desperate attempt.
But when they reached that place, the three Gods were surprised to find a fourth intruder there.
"Minos!" Aurae shouted the name of the man standing next to Kendrick while the entire space around his son's black hole seemed to stand still in time.
The three Gods inside the Spatial Kingdom and those outside this region of space saw the figure of Minos appear to solve the problem. But only the three individuals who moved to solve the problem felt the power emanating from Emperor Stuart!
"Let me fix it. I can completely undo what my son has done. Just give me a minute." Minos said without looking at the three of them.
The three looked at each other and agreed, seeing that Minos was using the most mysterious power: Time!
'Has he mastered the laws of time?' Aurae watched Minos attentively, somewhat impressed, as she felt that time around Kendrick and the black hole was running backward.
Meanwhile, Minos used his abilities to return his son's immortal energy to Kendrick's body, something only he could do.
If any of these Gods tried to deal with the black hole, it would end badly. Immortal energy was extremely powerful. When Kendrick added it to the mixture to form the black hole, it was like throwing liquid oxygen into a fire!
It would be difficult for anyone unfamiliar with immortal energy to control such power.
He acted quickly, while everyone who wasn't within the range of his power saw everything and felt as if time was turning back for those under Minos' power.
When he saw this, the level 100 dragon stood up from where he was, not hesitating to go to that Spatial Kingdom to see Minos' power for himself.
The level 100 whale also moved, quickly arriving at the spot where Minos had entered through the competitors' entrance.
After a little more than a minute of action, Minos completely dissolved Kendrick's Black Hole and the space around that cultivation sanctuary completely returned to its normal state.
As Minos' Time power stopped working, everyone under the influence of it began to move and act freely again, noticing the sudden change brought about by Emperor Stuart.
"That was truly magnificent, Minos." The level 100 dragon commented to him as he walked over to the side of the Gods.
"That was Time, right?" Vico looked at the young man before him strangely. "You couldn't use it before, or you didn't want to face me with this power?"
Minos answered sincerely. "I couldn't influence you back then. But now that I've had the chance to cultivate under the Tree of Life, I could have some fun with it." He laughed. "Of course, I wouldn't be able to hurt you, but it would be enough for me to surprise you faster than I did that day."
The Sky Whale heard that and went straight to his point of interest. "Well, let's end this competition. Since His Majesty Stuart intervened in the battle, we must consider it a defeat for his group."
"I did what I did to save this Spatial Kingdom and our competitors. Besides, if I hadn't acted, the event would have ended one way or another with the intervention of one of them." He pointed at Vico, Aurae, and Maximillian.
Everyone fighting in the Spatial Kingdom a few moments ago had stopped and was now looking toward these top experts.
Aurae listened to Emperor Stuart and agreed. "That is true. Minos didn't favor his group. He just did what we wanted to do."
The Sky Whale didn't like that. "That can't be. We're going to end the competition like this and give him the points? The fight has been interrupted!"
Minos said. "There are still 40 seconds left on my bet... I'll get my points if Kendrick has the egg in 37 seconds."
Everyone looked at the clock, which marked the time that Minos had bet that his group would be able to keep the beast egg that Sarah and company had stolen from a tribe in the Secret Hunt.
"That's true." Maximillian agreed as the old level 100 whale turned to look at his juniors at the event.
He called out to them to deal with Kendrick, but the young heir of the Black Plain Empire had already started running the moment his father's voice sounded.
"Shit! The damn humans tricked us!" A level 87 Sky Whale shouted as he moved.
With only 15 seconds left for Minos' bet to pay off, there wasn't much the group of enemies could do against Kendrick.
He used his advantage to his advantage, using the surrounding terrain to evade his opponents. His allies joined in, giving him a chance to complete his father's plans.
After 15 seconds, Kendrick still had the beast's egg, fulfilling his father's mission and giving Minos the last remaining points to take first place.
After a lot of hard work and an unexpected outcome, the competition finally came to an end, and Minos took first place in the competition's main betting ladder.
In this way, the Continental Tournament was finally over!
