Spatial Sword!

Swooish!

Minos danced with his sword as that creature suffered from the technique's restrictive effects and the Chaotic Gravity pushing its body toward the wormhole opening.

It struggled hard to move its mouth and produce a grunting sound, suffering considerably to express its pain as it was crushed by the walls of the wormhole collapsing over its body.

'Damn it!

How is this human doing this? How can a mere level 71 cultivator hurt me like this?'

But this beast did not understand that this was not Minos' power hurting it. Instead, this emperor was merely using his enemy's own movement to benefit himself!

The domain of the Soul Avatar of Minos could keep the space in the surroundings stable, preventing wormholes from opening and closing any that were open in such a space of influence.

Since that beast's level was not so different from Minos' current ability, it could not keep the wormhole open, while that avatar's domain was forcing the space to close over its body.

Consequently, this beast was suffering, trapped on the other side of the wormhole, as Minos pushed it into that region of space.

Amid this, the blades capable of causing minor injuries to that body flew toward it, beginning to bruise its head.

"Beast, accept the deal I proposed, and you will be free of this suffering!" Minos said, floating not far away from that creature.

"No!" It screamed with all its might, slowly straining to go against the black hole toward Minos.

"Stubborn!"

Minos then made the Devouring Art appear, with a large black ring appearing around that creature's head, beginning to suck its energies.

With that move, he activated the Infinite Dream, trying to degrade that creature's mental structures to distract it and make it lose its attention on its defenses.

That beast felt the blow and noticed that it wouldn't end well if it didn't defeat this opponent first. So it opened its eyes, feeling uncomfortable but gathering enough strength to attack.

Then its eyes flashed blue, and then two pillars of blue flame went from there towards Emperor Stuart's body.

Minos saw that and realized what this specimen's ability was. He quickly activated his Indestructible Body while his armor and passive energy absorption skill were standing by to help him.

High-level grade-3 items, like the ones Minos wore, had special powers. In particular, his armor could create a spiritual armor capable of covering his avatar!

So even though he was in the form of his soul projection, Minos could rely on his weapon and armor to do battle.

As the enemy attack was too fast for him to dodge, and there were no weaker beings nearby for him to steal cultivation levels with his innate ability, he simply continued attacking that creature while withstanding such an attack.

"Ouch!" He released a sound of pain after a few moments under the powerful flames of that level 80 creature.

But his defense generated by the Indestructible Body managed to bar most of the offensive power of that along with his armor. When the flames hit his skin, the passive ability of the Devouring Art helped him, giving him more power and reducing what would actually burn him.

But still, that was an attack from a beast a little stronger than him, so Minos felt pain as he had part of his body burned.

"Rascal! Give up at once, or you will regret it!" Minos shouted as he released the Dark Sea, causing a dark fog to appear around the surroundings of his domain.

That creature felt a little fear for the first time, sensing the dark past of Minos, who had already killed more than a million people in his lifetime!

Even it, a thousand-year-old spiritual beast with a terrifying level, had never killed so many living beings.historical

Sensing the terror of Minos' murderous aura, it got a little distracted and suffered a little more at his hands, having more of her body being crushed by the wormhole.

"Tsk!

Human, I'll kill you when this is all over, but for now, I'll take your deal!" It shouted with great difficulty, feeling tired of this situation.

Hearing that, Minos deactivated his techniques and abilities one by one while the blue flames in his surroundings had already disappeared.

After feeling free again, that creature stopped using its spatial manipulation and had its entire body out of the wormhole.

It looked at itself and noticed how bruised it had become, noticing several wounds and feeling some bones crushed.

'Damn you, human!' It thought as it looked grudgingly at Minos.

But Minos then said. "Let it go... You who put yourself in that situation... Anyway, guiding me through this place won't be bad, beast. I'm heading toward the capital of this kingdom, so maybe you'll have a chance to meet the queen."

"What? The queen? Are you crazy?" That serpent asked as it trembled with fear. "Foolish human, the queen is a Spiritual Demigod! She can kill us with one look!"

"Hmm, I can imagine. But I am searching for my companions, and I believe she can help me..." Minos said sincerely. "However, you should not worry. I am also sovereign, so my status is equal to hers."

"Hahahahahaha, you are an idiot!" The snake laughed at Minos' face. "If you are sovereign, then you must be from a farmstead in the northern region. How can you say that your status is equal to hers?"

"Well, we are two sovereigns." Minos laughed, knowing that his words were indeed exaggerated but confident that these women would not attack him without giving him a chance to talk or play by the local rules.

That would protect him and give him the opportunities he needed!

"Anyway, the capital is where I'm going. Do you know how to get there?" Minos asked, counting on this beast to know how to do it since he had no idea.

The beast looked at Minos and saw no fear in this human's heart.

It thought for a few moments, wanting to refuse, but because of its commitment to its own words, it said. "I know where it is, but I must warn you to give it up. The queen will never receive us, and even if she were willing, the eunuchs and women of the royal family would stand in our way.

You are a male. So you probably won't last until the trip is over." It said, looking to the middle of Minos' legs.

"Don't worry about me. You just need to guide me." Minos said, satisfied that this creature knew how to get to that place. "Leave everything else to me, and maybe you will gain some good things on this trip."

"As you wish..." That creature said in a sighing tone before it began to move, crawling into the water.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to talk to someone about my leaving. After that, we'll leave."

"Oh? I'm curious to know your habitat, haha." Minos followed behind it, entering that watery environment.
