nWhile Ruth was observing the area where Minos was from above, he had taken his low-level grade-2 sword from his spatial ring and prepared for the impending battle.

nIt didn't take long, and a group of 50 wild boars started to appear in Minos' vision.

nEach had two sharp canine teeth that protruded out of their mouths. These teeth were slightly curved upwards and measuring about 20 centimeters in length.

nEach of these wild boars was 1.5 meters high and certainly weighed more than 400 kilograms. It also had many brown hairs and small, completely reddish eyes.

nLooking at the boars in front of him, Minos could see that this group was hungry due to the saliva that was dripping from the mouths of many of these spiritual beasts. They were here to hunt this young man down and then feed on his meat!

n'Well, since that is the case, I don't need to take it easy...' He thought as he prepared to start fighting.

nFighting with a group of spiritual beasts was not an easy task.

nUnlike humans, spiritual beasts had a sense of cooperation that was far superior to that of humans. Because of this, even beasts with low intelligence could give work to their enemies, hunting in large groups, as in this case.

nThe boars began to look at Minos even more sharply as if they were preparing to attack the young man in front of them. But unfortunately for these spiritual beasts, they had not yet reached the 5th stage, when they could better probe the surroundings where they were.

nThat's because, even if Minos couldn't handle them, there was still Ruth and her eagle, who were just a few feet away, waiting for the fight.

nAt that time, the boars finally entered the area that Minos' techniques would influence. And realizing this, he immediately activated his techniques at once.

nDevouring Art!

nIndestructible Body!

nSpatial Sword!

nIn doing so, Minos' body suddenly increased his strength and hardness while a dark ring appeared a few meters above where he was.

nSlowly the spiritual energy of the 50 beasts began to be converted into energy for Minos to use when an invisible force quickly blocked the space around a distance of 40 meters from him.

nDue to the fact that these spiritual beasts had not yet reached the 5th stage of cultivation and thus were in the same stage as Minos, a large number of them were affected, to the point of being unable to move!

nOf course, as their number was simply enormous, some wild boars were not being restricted like others. But even so, the speed of all of them had been severely reduced.

nAnd as much as spiritual beasts are stronger than humans at the same level, this is only related to their physical strength.

nAs they could not use techniques and were under the influence of Minos' attack technique, it only remained to bear it!

nMeanwhile, Minos quickly began to make his movements with the sword, gracefully and nobly. With that, in a fraction of one second, several blades of air were hurled at those beasts who suffered the most from the influence of the Spatial Sword.

nSwooish!

nSwooish!

nThe blades flew towards the great bodies of the boars while these beasts felt a mortal danger approaching them.

nSome of them tried to dodge with all they had, but it was challenging to move in that place. It was as if something involved their bodies and increased resistance to movement.

nGrrr!

nGrrr!

nWailing sounds were heard when at last several boars were hit and hurled into the distance. Most of them were still alive, but about ten wild boars died in that single attack.

nRiiinch!

nSeeing the results of the first attack, Minos wasted no time and soon continued to attack while seeing that some beasts were already coming towards him with angry looks.

n'Well, come! With you, I can at least win!' Minos thought about it while he fought.

nHaving his techniques ignored when he fought Ruth gave him a very suffocating feeling, which stressed Minos a lot.

nBecause of that, being able to destroy these spiritual beasts was quite satisfying for this young man at the time!

nSpatial Sword!

nAnother set of blades was thrown while four wild boars hit Minos with full force!

nSwooish!

nPoof!

nThe attack of the four boars only pushed Minos back, while his powerful defense absorbed all the damage from the attack.

nAt the same time, yet another group of wild boars were making noises of pain for the last time before they finally stopped breathing.

n...

nWhile Minos fought with the group of boars, Ruth was watching and probing the fight the entire time. She knew that the young Stuart was powerful, but she was still worried about him.

nThat was 50 spiritual beasts!

nEach of them was stronger than Minos. And even if they were from the same stage, this was still a brutal fight!

nBut when she saw Minos' performance as he fought, Ruth soon put the worry aside and began to form a beautiful smile on her face.

nShe didn't understand why, but she felt excellent seeing it. It was a feeling that was almost as if she was proud of him...

n'Hmm, it looks like he will be able to deal with all of them.' She analyzed the situation calmly. Minos' techniques were quite dominating, and Ruth recognized this, even more when she saw it at work against other living beings.

n'If the difference in our spiritual energy was not so vast, I could never ignore these techniques...' She thought as she sighed softly. Ruth then murmured to herself.

"I have to try harder to increase my cultivation. Otherwise, he will leave me behind.

"

n...

nMeanwhile, Minos had already killed more than 40 wild boars in the last 8 seconds, leaving him with only two more seconds before his defensive technique collapsed. And when that happened, Minos would be completely exhausted and would no longer be able to fight.

nAfter all, he was using a low-level grade-2 sword, which required a lot of his body. Minos then hurried and activated his attack technique once again, making several moves towards the vital points of the remaining enemies.

nSpatial Sword!

nSwooish!

nSwooish!

nThe blades ran towards the seven remaining boars, which were now wholly stopped. They, too, had already exhausted most of their reserves and were no longer able to ignore the restriction imposed by Minos' attack.

nThese spiritual beasts were sweating cold when they finally received their respective blows.

nBoom!

nThe dead bodies were hurled at a distance while destroying a part of the vegetation in the vicinity where the fight took place.

n

"Ha... Haa... Ha...

" Minos held on to the side of a tree, breathing vigorously, while his clothes were completely wet with sweat and with several holes. His defense technique was excellent, but it only protected the physical body of its user!

n

"Phew, it's finally over!

" He exclaimed in a low voice, trying to recover from the tremendous nighttime effort he had just gone through.

nAt the same time, seeing that the fight was over, Ruth descended from the sky with her great white eagle beside the land where they were camping.

nSeeing this, Minos smiled at her but said nothing.

nHe just sat in a meditative position and began to circulate his cultivation technique, Solar God Breath. At the same time, several spiritual crystals appeared around him while it shone brightly and had its energies gradually sucked out.

nWhile Minos was cultivating, Ruth immediately started gathering the bodies of all 50 beasts in one place. After that, she instantly incinerated them so that the smell of blood would not attract other spiritual beasts from this region.

nShe and Minos had no interest in collecting the meat from these beasts. First, they both had large quantities of crystals, and second, they did not want to delay their trip to look for a place to sell these beasts. With that, it would make no sense to occupy the small space of their spatial rings with the corpses of beasts as worthless as these!

n...

nThree hours passed quickly, and Minos had finally fully recovered from the previous battle.

nAt that point, he and Ruth decided to alternate while one rested and the other watched the surroundings. After all, they were in a place called The Valley of the Beasts, so it wouldn't be good if they both went to sleep at the same time.

nWith that, time quickly started to pass when the day's rays took place at night, while the surroundings gradually became clearer.

nRight now, Ruth was at the top of a tree, looking around this region and waiting for Minos to finish his rest.

nShe had taken the second round since Minos had just cultivated after the fight, being full of energy at that moment. With that, after sleeping for a while, Ruth switched places with the young Stuart, reaching the current situation.

nAnd after the day cleared, it was not long before Minos had woken up.

nWith that, the two ate some spiritual fruits and disarmed their tent when they finally left this place to continue their journey. Soon after, an embraced couple could be seen taking off on a large white eagle from this place, near a lake, at the foot of a hill.
