The Rise of the Black Plain - Chapter 2690: The Maximum Peak of Minos

“Dragon—no, alien!” The level 120 shark glared at Minos from the surface of the sea, his voice clearly irritated by the insolent words of a mere level 113 cultivator.

“You dare claim to be the end of this Supreme’s journey?!” The creature asked in its arrogant and powerful voice, capable of making the sky tremble.

Minos looked down from above, not even trembling at the sheer power of the level 120 shark. As he stared decisively at his enemy, who had forced him into this position, golden flames covered his dragon forehead, revealing a spiral-shaped serpent.

“You forced me into this move, so rejoice. Your death will come from all the power I have!”

As Minos spoke, the shark’s cultivation pressure retracted, while the two corpses exchanged glances, feeling something far more powerful than anything they had ever felt emerge from inside Minos.

At that moment, the body of the Flashdrain parasite that Minos had been nurturing for decades, which he had strengthened several levels since sacrificing the last of them, burned up, joining the soul connected to it.

Feeling the flames of sacrifice refining his power, Minos clenched his front and back claws, in a single instant feeling his mana surpass four cultivation barriers in a row.

The glow of his wings changed, turning them into six suns on his back, as his energy exploded, reaching level 117!

“What?”

“How is that possible?” Wenni asked as she looked at her teammate and, without a chance, felt overwhelmed in Minos’ vicinity.

Walkas looked at Minos wide-eyed, hardly believing the sensation that his spiritual senses were informing him of.

But before they could say any more, they both felt their cultivations decrease as Minos’ level rose again, this time reaching the peak of level 119!

At that moment, the shark, impressed by his enemy’s rapid transformation, no longer hesitated as he jumped out of the sea and attacked as hard as he could. He had, for a moment, underestimated his enemy, but on seeing Minos’ transformation, he changed his mind and saw that he had to kill this supernatural force in front of him.

“You’re fighting fate. There’s no chance of you beating me, Voidfin. I’ve already seen your future.” Minos’ voice rang out and then a mirrored sphere, a Black Hole Bomb, exploded in one of his claws.

But instead of the explosion threatening the silver and gold dragon, it turned on his control, joining Minos’ breath an instant after its detonation.

Blue flames shot out of Minos’ mouth, propelling the explosive power of a Black Hole Bomb towards the tsunami of water that was about to hit him. Flames and water came together before extremely hot, white steam formed in the area, forcing Wenni and Walkas further back.

Minos remained motionless as he watched his attack go against the huge shark attacking him with a blast of water.

To the shark’s misfortune, a ridiculous amount of water was evaporating as it approached Minos’ attack, while even the gaseous water disappeared, turning into a scalding plasma under Minos’ control!

“How is that possible?” The level 120 shark didn’t understand, as he felt like he was in a pot of boiling water, shocked to the limit by it all.

His idea of fighting Minos and killing this troublesome fellow quickly faded while the only idea in his mind now was to run away!

But as he turned to flee, his body froze in time and space, while the six bright suns behind Minos’ body shot into his soul, making him put aside his physical pain and then focus on his spiritual pain.

At level 119, Minos was greatly stronger than the level 120 existence!

With the power of the Flashdrain parasite sacrifice, Minos could even drive away the powerful and frightening phenomena in the surroundings and completely dominate the environment.

Endowed with his divine ability to control time and see the future, he became the fate of the level 120 shark, the end of this ancient creature.

His words proved true as the immense body of the three-colored shark began to disintegrate, spiritually and physically disintegrated by Minos’ attacks.

The creature’s soul burned under the glow of Minos’ seraphim wings, while its fleshy body was devoured by the mingled flames of the Black Hole Bomb and dragon’s breath.

Wenni and Walkas didn’t have to do anything as they watched from a distance the confrontation, or rather, the murder carried out by Minos.

They had thought earlier that they would be involved in a deadly fight in this place, but they were totally surprised to see Armhands’ special method raise Minos to the peak of his powers.

For a moment, they felt envious of the special methods of Minos’ guild, until, with the total disappearance of the level 120 creature, they felt Minos’ power started to succumb.

“Let’s go back. My powers won’t last long and we must flee as soon as possible if we want to escape from the Sea Serpent!” Minos grabbed the two corpses and flew with all his might towards his ship.

His level was already beginning to threaten to fall, but he would still last a while in that state. With the desire to get his boat away before dealing with all the effects of the sacrifice, he caught up with his crew quickly.

“Are you going to be weakened?” Walkas asked with concern. “How will we guarantee the journey ahead?”

“My companions and you will have to deal with the dangers that lie ahead over the next eight months. I’ll try to inform you of good routes, but I can’t guarantee anything… Anyway, I hope you two can guide my crew.”

The two corpses looked at each other and agreed to do their best.

“What about the Sea Serpent?”

“About him, I’ll make sure he doesn’t find us after today.”

When he made those two get into their coffins on the ship where everyone was staring at him in shock, Minos did the unexpected. Using his enormous body, he put the boat on his back and flew off in the best possible direction.

“I’ll be a Sovereign again in an hour at most, given my energy consumption. I’ll take our ship until I’m a Supreme,” he said to his people, as silver clouds and a golden hourglass appeared, making their way to escape from the area where the shark had been killed!
