The Rise of the Black Plain

When the first of those individuals started walking along the path that Minos and his wives had already followed, such a person made a move that he should not have.

As he stepped outside the permitted area in that place, one of the traps there immediately activated, causing the magma field to move as if an earthquake were happening.

But just then, a jet of red-hot liquid came out of the middle of that magma area, going towards the man in question.

It all happened in a fraction of a second. When those three realized something was happening, the jet of lava was already about to hit their companion.

"Damn it!" Such a person screamed upon seeing that thing coming towards him and jumped forward, quickly activating several techniques to dodge the worst and defend himself from possible remnants.

None of them were foolish enough to think that such a place or that lava flow was harmless. No, they realized it could mortally wound even them, Spiritual Saints! 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

So none of them would underestimate such a thing or act arrogantly in front of that strange place.

Unfortunately for that level 71 man, even though he had dodged that jet in question when he went to sigh in relief, a lava wave appeared on his right side. When this happened, his friends immediately returned the way they had come, while his eyes widened in terror at the sight of the thing.

He even tried to run away when he saw it, but the path in front of him closed so fast with the falling lava that he was engulfed in flames before he could escape!

Due to the temperature of that gelatinous substance, this Level 71 Spiritual Saint did not even have a chance to scream. As a result, his body was utterly obliterated, without even leaving behind his bones or items such as a spatial ring.

Everything melted with that scalding substance, 'oozing' back into the magma field soon after.

"Hah... Hah... Hah... What was that?" The last remaining man asked the woman beside him while sweating and breathing rapidly.

Gulp!

"I think he fell into a trap." She looked back, pale with fear, as she recalled that there were three of them just now, but in a split second, one of them was wiped out.

We are 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦, find us on google.

Even that man's soul was erased from this world, leaving nothing behind to indicate that he had once existed.

As they looked back at that place, they noticed that everything seemed to have returned to normal, with the path from before becoming visible to them again.

The man then asked. "What do we do now? If we make the same mistake as Cliff, it will be the end of us. None of us are much stronger than him!"

The woman clenched her fists and said. "We have to keep going! That is the proof that such a place is valuable!"

There were a few reasons to accept the great chance of death in this world. One of them was precisely finding a treasure to turn heaven and earth upside down, something that could transform generations of a family.

In this situation, a traditional cultivator would hardly fear the danger in front of them. On the contrary, they would go to great lengths to overcome the problems in their path and harvest the best possible fruits!

Only in this way could someone change from water to wine quickly!

The man understood his partner and questioned her. "But how shall we do it?"

"Don't touch anything. Follow in the footsteps of those people from earlier." She said as she realized that some of the tracks of Minos and his wives had not disappeared with the earlier problem. "For the rest, be as careful as you can. If you don't know what to do, stay still or go back."

"All right!" He nodded, feeling that it made sense.

'Where the hell did Minos get information from this place? He even knows how to get in safely!' The woman thought about this as she made a frown, already following the narrow path in that magma field.

...

Sometime later, after sweating a lot on the path earlier, the man and woman coming from the Saints Killing Sect overcame that phase.

When they arrived at the entrance of the dark cave at the base of the mountain, they saw three paths ahead right after walking a few meters inside it.

Gulp!

"What now?" He asked his companion, seeing tracks on all three paths.

This level 72 woman also felt unsure when she saw this, but the greed in her heart was much more intense than fear.

So she tried to scan the area to choose her path.

"Let's take the middle passage." She said after a few minutes.

But hearing this woman's tone, that man felt a little strange. 'What if she tries to use me as a guinea pig? She's stronger than me, so surely she might have an extra chance if she makes me take a step she wouldn't take just to test something...'

"Isn't it better if we split up?" He suggested, protecting himself from his partner stabbing him later.

If something there were valuable, such a reality would be even more likely than her using him as a guinea pig!

She looked at him and felt that such a person suspected her, which was the right thing to do in this situation. But she did not object to his speech. "That's not a bad idea either. Which way do you want to go?"

He sighed in relief and pointed in the direction he had judged to be the best. "I'll take the left entrance."

"All right, I'll take the middle one." She said before making the motion to enter that tunnel.

But after doing so, she quickly turned back from where she came, noticing that her partner had already entered the other tunnel. 'Let's see if his way will bring trouble before I choose my own.'

After pondering her plans and stopping at that fork location, motionless, she used her soul technique to direct that part of her being into the tunnel on the left.

Doing so would not help if no one was walking ahead of her to show her the right way. So she preferred to 'accompany' her companion this way, using him as her guinea pig.

However, her journey did not last long. Only 5 minutes after saying goodbye to the level 71 man, this woman heard screams from that place.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Help! Help!" Her companion's voice sounded in desperation before she even saw what was happening inside that tunnel.

'What happened? He was walking normally and suddenly started screaming...' She pondered, but hearing that man increasingly desperate, this person felt fear and made her soul return to her body.

She clenched her fists and entered the middle tunnel, deciding to follow her instincts and not stay to see her partner's problem.

"I hope that's worth the trouble..." She muttered, sweating coldly and extremely pale, no longer remembering Minos' existence given the risks in her surroundings.

...

Meanwhile, Minos and his wives were at the end of that middle tunnel, reaching their destination!
