Change of Situation
Three and a half months later...
Currently, the Gray Clouds Sect had 51 Spiritual Saints and 7,100 Spiritual Emperors in the Black Plain Empire under Minos' orders to act against Abe's group.
This group had lost some of its 8th and 7th stage members in the weeks that had passed by then but was still going strong while helping the empire resume its development.
For a long time, the local forces were prevented from developing their state due to the actions of Abe's terrorist group.
This group constantly attacked strategic posts of the local forces and government, destroying essential infrastructure and hindering activities such as agriculture and mining.
Due to these constant setbacks, the Black Plain had been forced not to grow since the beginning of Abe's group's attacks and had even shrunk in some respects.
