The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2828  The Clue Minos Wants

As soon as the battle was over, Minos fell towards the lava of the ocean floor in that part of the bottom of the Violent Sea, finally allowing himself to be overwhelmed by the deep wounds on his body.

Ruth approached him, being the fastest of the survivors, swimming fast enough to catch him before he crashed into the lava, emitting scalding steam in contact with the water.

Simultaneously with Ruth's movement, Abby, and Gloria collected the remains of their enemies, picking up three new body parts of True Celestials from the now dead Orcel.

These three body parts belonged to the hand, skull, and heart, body parts that Minos could no longer absorb because he already had something like that in those areas. Precisely because of this, Minos disregarded the 'gifts' that Orcel had left for his group, while thinking about where the clue was for the next essence of a True Celestial that he could absorb.

He said to them as he weakened, "Collect the remains of all those who fell here. I want Abby to bring the Sea Serpent back to life."

"Is that possible?" Gloria looked at Abby doubtfully, considering how destroyed their enemies had ended up. "They ended up not leaving much behind, after all."

Abby looked at the remains of the Sea Serpent, who had left behind only his skull. All the rest of this individual's body had been devoured by Minos' flames.

"It's possible. But only I could do it. Minos made a point of leaving almost nothing of the Sea Serpent... But the others are impossible. They're totally lost," Abby said confidently, while holding the remains of Orcel in her hands.

"But first we have to absorb those essences. We're exhausted and I wouldn't be able to do it now."

Minos said to them, "Gloria, absorb the heart. Abby will stand guard, and Ruth will continue to help me while our ship comes to our rescue. You two will absorb the other essences after Gloria has finished."

The three of them split up as he said, with Gloria taking Orcel's heart, Abby taking his hand bone and Ruth taking what looked like a purple helmet, which would fuse to his skull.

Soon Gloria would enter a state of meditation, with Abby keeping an eye on her surroundings and Ruth taking care of Minos' situation.

Before Gloria had finished, their ship would return to them, giving Minos room to rest in a more comfortable place.

It wouldn't be long before Gloria succeeded in absorbing another part of a True Celestial's body, managing to advance from level 120 to level 121, reaching the end of that level with this opportunity.

Abby would be next, with Ruth coming last. But the strongest of them wouldn't advance a level this time. Having already started level 122, reaching level 123 wouldn't be so easy. Abby only advanced to the end of her level, getting closer to reaching the power of a Devil with True Celestial cultivation, when she would show her full potential.

While Gloria had acquired a new ability related to tracking power, Abby got a long-range attack ability, capable of stimulating plants and making her stronger in the middle of forests.

When Ruth got her chance, she advanced to level 122, being the second to pass her husband's level, gaining a mental ability capable of separating body and soul and degrading the final essence of her opponents.

With her advancement and plenty of energy at her disposal again, Ruth helped Minos in a much better way than she had done earlier, making him demonstrate rapid regeneration, while Abby finished bringing the Sea Serpent back to life.

When Minos felt his strength recovering, with wounds already fully healed, he got up from the bed where he had been in the hours after the fight ended, where they were still standing on the seabed.

None of them were afraid of beings native to the Violent Sea. The Sea Serpent was the strongest in the sea and they had killed it. It wouldn't be now that they had resolved their situation with so many enemies that they would run away in a hurry.

As soon as he was feeling better, Minos went to the Sea Serpent, the only one he thought could give him answers.

Orcel had left his body parts behind and would hardly have any information about a True Celestial's body part. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to this place before checking it out. Meanwhile, Qhava's envoys followed a different strengthening method and wouldn't have known where to find such essences.

That left only the Sea Serpent and his minions, but obviously only he would have such critical information. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Because of all this, Minos went straight to the point when he found that guy in his humanoid form in the waiting room of his exclusive compartment on that ship.

"Tell me about the body parts of True Celestials that you know and would know how to help me get to them," Minos said as he sat down between two of his wives on a sofa.

The standing man said, "I've come into contact with history about two different essences of this caliber in my life, senior Minos. One of them is the Nautilus Compass that you have, and the other is the Divine Tail."

Minos cracked a smile on his lips, getting something, as he had hoped. "Tell me about the Divine Tail."

"The Divine Tail is an important component of a beast king's body. There was this creature who conquered several worlds before passing through Zocarro and fighting Eternal Death a long time ago. According to the stories, he had a precious tail that made him almost invincible in his physical defense and allowed him to withstand entering all kinds of environments without being corrupted or intoxicated.

Anyway, he fought against Eternal Death and was supposedly forced to flee. But he didn't escape in one piece, having left with a mortal wound.

But he didn't make it before leaving behind information about himself and a trail. This information led Uzira's royal family to find out about his home planet and the places he might have fled to.

Luckily, senior Minos, I have the names of three of the planets that beast king may have passed through before dying, leaving behind the Divine Tail."

Minos' eyes shone, not caring so much about what abilities the Divine Tail could give him, but rather about its possibility of making him stronger in level and finally reaching the Absolute grade.

When he achieved that, everything would change for him!

"Talk about those planets." He ordered with a smile on his lips.
