The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 631: A High Level Fight

After hearing Mirya's question and then looking in Minos' direction, Celeste thought for a second and then replied. "Well, considering what little I saw of the fight between him and Emlyn, I believe I am a little stronger than him at the moment."

"So, yes, I think I will win!"

"Oh? Are you that confident?" Mirya asked as she looked at Celeste with a smile on her face.

Mirya understood where Celeste's confidence was coming from. After all, such a person was already at level 55 and had a complete set of Silver-grade techniques!

So, this woman was expected to have a power similar to that of a level 57 cultivator with a set of Black-grade techniques.

And that was a big difference from Minos' modest level 50. So, although this young man was impressive and everyone there understood that the fight would not be so simple, Mirya understood that the advantage was in Celeste's favor.

"Hmm, but let's see. He is a monster, after all..." Celeste said in a joking tone, already walking towards where Minos was waiting for her.

"Well, you have already reached level 55, and after our training, I will send you to the army naval base." Minos began to speak just after seeing that woman coming close enough to where he was standing. "Are you ready?"

Upon hearing this, Celeste nodded in agreement. "Yes. You can start whenever you want!"

Upon hearing this, young Stuart immediately pulled his two medium-level grade-2 swords out of his spatial ring, causing them to fall directly to the ground in front of him.

At the same time, as the two swords fell standing on the ground, he picked up a rock and threw it up so that he and Celeste could begin such a fight simultaneously.

Meanwhile, the soldiers of the Elite Squad were already there in the vicinity, as well as Emlyn and two other spiritual beasts. They would not miss this high-level battle for anything!

Crack!

Finally, after a brief instant, that rock from before fell to the ground, cracking to the point that the sound produced reached the ears of every single person there.

Zum!

Simultaneously with this, a giant black ring quickly appeared on that spot, covering a large part of the area where Minos was standing, thus bringing some of the darkness of the night there.

Meanwhile, this young man quickly activated all the other techniques in his repertoire, going all out against his opponent!

He had activated his defensive technique, significantly increasing his body's defensive and offensive characteristics. Next, he had begun to run towards his target, intending to press her from the beginning of the battle.

Finally, his two swords were already releasing some of the remarkable power of the Spatial Sword as Minos' bright eyes tried to deceive Celeste.

Swooish! Swooish!

Quickly, he sliced the air with his two weapons, causing two large blades of energy to form in the air and slash toward his opponent.

As he did so, the powerful invisible force cast by Minos' eyes was already 'rushing' towards Celeste, even faster than the blades sent by him.

'Unbelievable! It looks like he was holding himself against Emlyn!' Celeste thought to herself as she felt a chill on her skin from the terrifying amount of power Minos was releasing.

'That's over 90% of my strength! That's a lot of power for a level 50 Spirit King...' She looked at him incredulously while already activating her techniques to get out of the way of Minos' attacks and not be so affected by her opponent.

'If he continues like this, then by the time he reaches level 51, won't he be as strong as a level 59 cultivator?' She wondered while tooking a few steps back and then launching a counterattack against Minos' blades.

At the same time as that, she could feel that some of her energy was slowly being devoured by Minos' support technique. But this was not so significant that she was bothered.

No, what was bothering her was the mental technique that Minos was using, which was causing her to use a lot of her strength, not to be affected by the Infinite Dream.

'Damn! I don't have any mental technique to protect my mind... Otherwise, I wouldn't have to worry about it!' She thought frustratedly as she finally ran towards Minos while already using her Silver-grade attack technique.

She jumped into the air as she did so while placing her two hands at the height of her navel and circling her attack technique.

Immediately after this, red energy began to form between her hands until she finally opened her arms, causing that ball of energy to split into several others.

Ssssss!

Subsequently, each of those red energy balls flew towards Minos while leaving a vapor of the same color behind, something that every single person there felt was highly lethal.

Spatial Sword: Twin Blades!

Upon seeing this, Minos didn't take long to give his answer, as he stretched his arms straight out in front of his face and placed those two swords vertically parallel to each other.

After that, he made a spinning gesture, creating a bunch of blades and sending them towards each of those energy balls Celeste had sent in his direction.

Swooish!

Swooish!

Ssss!

Boom!

Boom!

Several explosion sounds reverberated through that place, while the shockwaves from the attacks of those two caused the hair of the women in that place to be messed up and the cheeks of the weaker ones there to tremble because of it!

However, as much as most of the attacks had clashed during that last moment, some of them had continued to travel their respective previous paths!

Sss!

Swooish!

And in that instant, both parties had to endure the effects of the opposite attacks!

First, the young Stuart, who had managed to dodge a few attacks, but in the end had still been hit by one of those balls.

In that instant, he had put his arms in front of the main parts of his body while using more of his energy reserves to strengthen his defenses.

However, that red energy ball finally came into contact with his skin!

Immediately after this, it expanded vigorously, increasing in size by more than 50 times, until it finally covered Minos' surroundings completely.

As it finished expanding, such a ball began to rotate vigorously around Minos, as if it were concentrating all the spiritual energy in the surroundings before its final attack...

And while young Stuart was facing this situation where he had no choice but to defend himself, Celeste had been wounded by one of the blades sent by this young man!

"Ahhh!" She screamed in pain right after falling to the ground and rolling twice while feeling intense pain in her right arm.

'Shit! Why is he still attacking my mind? Shouldn't he care about that attack?' She wondered in frustration as she felt that she had momentarily let her guard down after the previous blade had injured one of her arms.

And just as she felt her mind being attacked by Minos, that spinning red ball of energy finally had reached its peak!

At that instant, it began to contract, as if it was trying to put pressure on Minos, when it finally exploded, producing a fantastic visual effect.

'Phew, this technique is quite dangerous!'

Minos had thought about it, remembering the details of this technique that Henricus Longus had developed.

Boom!

Indestructible Body!

Spatial Sword!

Boom!

In the first moment, that ball of energy had brightly glowed as it contracted. Then, at the moment of the explosion, everything seemed to concentrate on a small point of its interior.

After that, in a second moment, red flames appeared in the surroundings, raising the temperature of that place considerably, while anything in between would burn up in the blink of an eye.

"Ahhhh!"

Finally, a cry of pain broke from Minos' throat as he eventually was thrown a few feet away from that previous location, right after trying to attack the blast core!
