As Minos and his group headed for the mountain where one of the enormous ancient skeletons in this area was supposed to be, a group was following their footsteps at a distance.
In this group, three Spiritual Saints, two level 71 and one level 72 followed the clues from Minos' group.
Several days after the departure of Minos and his wives from the territory of the Gray Clouds Sect, Lance's group had managed to pass on the information of his passage to people in the Saints Killing Sect.
With that, the families of that sect who had orchestrated the plot with Abe Vogel to avenge their dead on the Black Plain decided to act upon coming into contact with such information. They immediately sent three of their leaders, the people who were in this group now.
Those who had orchestrated against Minos on Abe's side all these years were not members of the prominent families of that sect. Instead, they were people from average families, like the example of House Miles in the Gray Clouds Sect.
Because of this, these three people were only at the beginning of the 8th stage.
In any case, as Spiritual Saints, they were not weak, much less slow to investigate the tracks of such a careless group. Thus, they had found their way to those people with relative ease, finally reaching them this day.
"Where are they going?" The only woman there, the group leader, asked as she frowned, not understanding why these people were wasting their time in this burning place.
Besides the hot springs, there was nothing else of interest to visit in this area of the Flaming Empire. As if this was not enough, Minos' group had already spent days traveling through this area and frequented several hot springs like the one they had just left.
In addition, this place was dangerous, and none of those people seemed to have any technique or skill related to the nature of this place.
Hence, they seemed to be wasting their time in the opinion of that woman who did not know as much as Minos.
"It's bizarre..." One of the men, a person with a beard and black hair, said, seeing how Minos was indicating to Maida the place they were going.
"It looks like they are in search of something... No, it looks like they know where they are going!" The other man said, sensing that this was the case.
Just as he said this, Minos and his group stopped in front of a large mountain almost entirely engulfed in flames.
But strangely, no smoke was coming from that area, which looked like a giant rock over 100 meters high.
At that point where Minos' group stopped, there was nothing. It was just the lowest point of that burning mountain, from where the orange sky of the area seemed to blend in with some of the flames of that mountain.
The woman and the other man chasing them paid attention to the behavior of the four humans and realized that they seemed to be going to a known place, not something unknown.
'What do they want here?' The woman wondered before hearing the question from her bald companion.
"What do we do now? Do we wait to see what they are up to, or do we deal with them right away, once and for all?" Such a person asked.
Of course, he was curious to know about Minos's purpose in that place. But they were Spiritual Saints, while the opposing side had only Spiritual Emperors and even a Spiritual King... So what they might be after was probably of no value to this group.
In this case, eliminating the opponents while they had the chance might be the best alternative for them!
The woman then replied. "Let's follow them for a little longer. What's the worst that can happen if we don't act immediately? At least let's clear up our doubts about this situation."
The other two readily agreed, feeling nothing could stop them on this fateful day!
Who could Minos use to save himself this time? A pregnant woman? Experts who were not around? Rumors about his powers?<novelnext> </novelnext>

In their view, nothing!
Therefore, they watched that group while Minos stepped forward to lead his wives.
As he stopped in front of that mountain and walked a few meters closer to the flames, Minos said. "Even though this place was built to seal the skeletons here without the need for people watching the area, that doesn't mean there isn't a useful structure here."
"In this place ahead of us, there is an entrance similar to the one in the Immemorial Graves Sect. If the seal weakens, the members of the organization behind the creators of this area should act through it to strengthen the seal." He began circulating his energies through his arms, making a few hand gestures close to the ground.
"If the seal is weakened, the passage will open for us." He murmured to his wives as he struggled to move the invisible mechanisms in that area.
"What if it isn't?" Abby questioned her man.
"Then what I am doing will have no effect, and we will leave here," Minos said, but a noise of old poles opening sounded following his words.
When such a thing happened, those individuals who were not listening to the dialogue between Minos and his wives were surprised.
Not only had a small earthquake started in that area, but the front of the mountain where Minos was crouching a few meters ago had suddenly transformed.
What looked like the mountain's base had turned into a magma field, where a very narrow passage connected to a smaller mountain within that burning mountain. Following that path, all anyone would see would be the beginning of a dark cave and nothing else.
"What the fuck... What is that?" One of the level 71 men questioned his companions in a low voice, totally incredulous at the situation.
None of them had the slightest idea that there was anything of the sort in this place that had existed for so long. So seeing Minos reveal a great secret to them, they no longer even remembered that they were there to kill such a young man.
All in their minds now was to solve the mystery of this strange place!
Minos then stood up and looked at his wives. "There are traps in this place that have been made to prevent those unrelated to such a sect from entering here. So you must move like me. Step in the same places as I do and not touch anything."
"Is that okay?"
"Yes." The three answered while the two beasts sat in front of that place, waiting since they could not walk down that narrow path.
"But how do you know where to step? Was Henricus Longus part of that organization?" Gloria questioned her husband as they started down the path to that dark cave.
"No, but he had a relationship with one of the sect masters behind the group that made this place. So he left me the memories about it..." Minos said, strolling towards his goal, being very careful.
Meanwhile, the three individuals ran towards that place, intending to enter there as well.
'Nine-tailed Fox, huh? I think I'll take that one for myself later.' The woman thought as she looked at Kyla.
They knocked out the two beasts so they would not alert Minos' group and immediately entered that place!
