The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2839  Growth on Both Sides

Back in Hell, Qhava was still in seclusion, but at the core of her territory, her subordinates in position in the area were in their most defensive state ever.

Undead were standing on the outskirts of the palace, built among the black rocks of the area, with several guardians of different kinds in position here and there. The Reincarnation Wheels were circulating, emanating power while her entire territory was closed to anyone below level 127.

In this situation, one of her main subordinates sighed with a smile on his rocky face, seeing that they were not far from reaching the primary position of Hell.

"Our leader will finish her cultivation in another two years at most," said this individual, as he felt her aura threatening to reach level 128.

When Qhava reached level 128, she would undeniably become the strongest Hell Devil in the current generation. At that time, it would be time for her group to start their crusade to conquer the Throne of Hell!

"That's if none of our lady's opponents don't show themselves around here," said another subordinate quietly.

"None of them would dare! Our lady will become the first woman to sit on the Throne of Hell. There's no turning back!" said the most fervent of those devils positioned on the outskirts, as they manipulated their powers to maintain their defensive formation over the area. "Fools who defy her, like Undar, will pay dearly for their transgressions as soon as our master finishes her advance!"

Almost everyone nodded positively, agreeing on this fact, although not everyone was so sure that other high-level Devils wouldn't attack Qhava before her success.

"Undar, huh? I wonder how long he'll be able to get away? He escaped from some of our envoys, but the next group won't confront him." Murmured someone over there. "When he least expects it, he'll have his position marked out and he'll see our master coming to rip his head off!"

These living subordinates of Qhava liked what they heard, aware that the death of Minos and possibly Abby would bring significant gains for Qhava and themselves.

"We'll see about that soon enough. In just over two years we'll sort it out!" Someone finished the subject, with the group maintaining their defensive position, while their minds went back to the growing aura of this powerful Devil.

Meanwhile, Qhava was underground in his palace, in an area covered in darkness where one would not be able to distinguish her body from the surrounding environment.

Nothing but her growing power was on her mind at the moment, with her having put thoughts of enemies, rivals, and allies to one side, focused only on the evolution of her soul.

The 13th stage was special. Every step higher you took was a new opportunity for growth capable of raising your vitality, powers and understanding so much that the levels immediately before paled in comparison.

Qhava was already very strong as a level 127 Devil, but at level 128 she could act against opponents, in situations disadvantageous to her, that she could never beat in situations advantageous to her when she was at level 127.

And the higher she went in her cultivation, the more of the reality behind the universe she could access, understanding and solving ancient mysteries, while gaining awareness that would make her able to understand and deconstruct what was within her reach.

Her infernal crown was evolving, as her Physique approached the Absolute grade, the inherent quality of the most powerful beings in the universe!

'True immortality... here I come!'

...

While Qhava was experiencing an experience and moment that only the cream of the cream of the universe had any chance of experiencing, there was someone else having their big chance of destiny in Hell at that moment.

In an area very far from Qhava's territory, a woman with long white hair had just managed to conquer the Reincarnation Wheel of this domain, free of ownership until a few moments ago, after she killed the former master of the area.

She had secured yet another domain for herself, growing her influence by conquering a large territory, the 15th territory she had got since entering Hell years ago.

As soon as she conquered yet another area, she felt a special vibration in her soul, her soul showing a mixed appearance between her actual look and a black rocky view, natural to Hell.

But, as well as her apparent long white hair, her lips were still distinct and beautiful, and she could expose the beautiful smile she opened when she saw the moment she had always dreamed of coming.

'Level 125!' Mylecent thought to herself as she felt the click for her to advance a stage and finally become a Celestial!

Given her crown came from Abby's crown, she wouldn't become a True Celestial, but she wouldn't be as common as a normal Celestial either.

But regardless of how special her level 125 version would be, she immediately went into a position of meditation after summoning her infernal guardians and a horde of undead.

She thought of the white-haired, seraph-winged man, remembered Minos' face and smiled, seeing that it wouldn't be long before she returned to Uzira to mind her own business and joined him.

'Just wait a little longer, Minos. In a year, I'll be back on the continent!' She thought to herself, gradually stopping thinking about the man Ysolt had promised her, turning her attention to herself, to the growth of her powers.

She didn't know where Minos was at the moment, but she was confident that he would be fine and his advancement would give the group a chance to exploit him wherever they went.

As she was Abby's subordinate, naturally Minos' wife would have her chances to strengthen with Mylecent's growth in Hell!

Mylecent just didn't know that, until Abby returned to Hell, this woman wouldn't be able to access the opportunities coming from her growth. As long as she was outside those realms, the benefits of Hell would have little effect on Abby.

...

Meanwhile, Minos and his women were on the surface of Eater, arriving in an area critical to their interests, accompanied by a small horde of warriors native to the area.

Unfortunately, Abby couldn't access the benefits of Mylecent's growth, something she would have found very welcome in the situation they were about to face!
