1905: The Dangerous Continent of Beasts (2)

The Dangerous Continent of Beasts (2)

"Even though it's not the most powerful land in the Spiritual World, this place could be considered the most dangerous place to travel to.0

Even the glorious Sky Whales would have to be careful when entering this continent."

As marine creatures, the Sky Whales relied heavily on the sea. Given the size of the Continent of Beasts and the presence of powerful beings in the area, even members of the strongest tribe in the world would have to be careful when venturing into this land.

Only the strongest, those between levels 97 and 100, could venture out with some degree of safety. Still, there were few of them, and there were beings from the strongest races on this continent that could make things difficult even for them.

Yet, Minos was willing to bring his women to this dangerous place!

He looked thoughtfully at the two most powerful members of his group and said with a smile, "Rest assured. You'll understand how much stronger we'll be when we're in danger."

Hearing his insistence, the two looked at each other and no longer pressed him on the subject. 

Minos was the group leader and the one who would lose the most if something happened to his women because of the local dangers.

On the other hand, he was a brilliant fighter and must have had his reasons for taking such risks.

'What kind of skills do these women have? I doubt his confidence is because they have the same techniques as him.' The level 91 woman from the Sea Folk thought to herself, knowing that having the same techniques did not mean having the same level of power.

Minos might be a monster with his techniques. But with the same techniques, someone else might not be able to perform even the simplest fusion that he was capable of. Also, one might not even have abilities beyond their level just by having techniques similar to someone who could.

Even if Minos' wives had the same techniques as him, no matter how incredible those techniques were, those women would hardly be like him.

As such, this woman from the Sea Folk couldn't help but be curious about other characteristics, especially individual ones, that these women might have.

After Minos' initial conversation with the two of them and a few moments of reunion between Minos' wives, Kyla and Emlyn, they soon introduced themselves to the rest of the group, hearing the names of everyone there.

Gloria commented. "The group you've formed so far is very powerful. If we continue like this, by the time we reach the end of our journey, we'll have 20 to 30 Demigods on our side." 

"We'll see... Maybe we won't be so lucky here." Minos smiled at Gloria before he looked at Emlyn and said. "Anyway, you can take the lead of the group. I think you know the area best from now on."

And indeed, Emlyn was the most familiar with the place. As weaker than some of the members of her party, most of them were sea creatures who hadn't gotten very far in their adventures on land.

Hence, no one saw a problem with Emlyn leading the way, and soon, the level 81 fox was at the head of the group, already running in her bestial form.

The land creatures there did the same as Emlyn, transforming into their bestial versions, while some of the humans there rode those creatures.

As for the sea creatures, they kept their humanoid versions, as it would be difficult for them to act in the terrestrial world with their true forms.

Thus, the group set off across this magnificent continent to explore the southernmost region of such a gigantic domain, an area of sparse forests and dry air.

The southernmost region of the Nine-Tailed Foxes, where Minos' group had arrived, was an area of plains with vegetation and a relatively dry climate.

Even so, the surrounding area was gorgeous, with fields here and there and spots of creeping trees that glowed even in the daylight.

As they began to make their way through the area, the group soon noticed the first animals in their path: several types of snakes, rodents, and insects that were quite common in the area.

As she walked ahead of the group, Emlyn said. "My tribe's territory stretches from the coast up to 300 kilometers into the continent. In addition, we have more than 500 kilometers between one end of the coast and the other. However, there are several tribes with powers similar to my tribe along this coast. So, there are many relatively powerful races in the first few kilometers into the continent.

But after that, only our friends from the Nine-Tailed Fox tribe are allowed to live, so we won't be in too much danger once we pass that point. We just have to be extra careful for now, and then we'll be fine."

"Mom, how strong is our tribe on the continent?" Kyla curiously asked as she saw several relatively powerful beings in the area.

"There are currently 20 tribes on the continent that are able to pass level 89 and reach the 10th stage. So we're obviously weaker than those 20 tribes. But that's not all. There are more than 100 tribes that are capable of reaching the final of the 9th stage, just like us.

So theoretically, we have many competitors, and it would be difficult to say for sure how relevant any one of us would be in relation to others from these other races because there can be variations in power within the same race, just as there are among humans.

But our tribe is certainly among the 40 strongest on the continent. Our characteristics are brutal for many races with similar spiritual potential to ours." Emlyn answered sincerely, without overestimating her people, but with pride, for the Nine-Tailed Foxes were respected on the continent, even though they weren't even among the 30 most powerful tribes.

"That's it?" Kyla didn't like that very much.

"That's not bad, actually," Minos said to the young fox. "There must be about 60 tribes that can reach the 10th stage in the Spiritual World. And even though there are hundreds or even thousands of races capable of reaching the 9th stage, the Nine-Tailed Fox tribe is definitely among the 200 strongest.

That's no small feat, Kyla."

"But how can we maintain our position on this continent if we're so weak?" She asked, feeling disappointed even by Minos' words.

"Just as there are lesser powers in powerful states on other continents," Emlyn replied. "By allying ourselves with stronger groups, in our case, we have a long history with the Phoenix Tribe!"
