Chapter 486: Elemental Venerables

“You…”

“Stop it,” Ray cut the guard off just as he was about to scold Grey.

“I’m sorry for the way he acted towards you,” He apologized after glaring at the guard.

“It’s okay, are you leaving as well?” Grey waved it off before asking.

“Yes,” Ray nodded.

“Alright, we should leave together then,” Grey suggested.

Ray nodded, he gave the guard a little lecture before heading out of the city with Grey.

….

Outside the city.

“So, where are you headed?” Ray asked.

He couldn’t just walk with Grey without knowing where he was going, if they were heading in the same direction then it was okay, but if not, then they would split up here.

“The Southern Continent,” Grey replied.

After hearing Grey’s words, Ray almost tripped, not expecting Grey to speak of the Southern Continent. The distance between this place and the Southern Continent was huge, although teleportation arrays will make the journey easier, it will make it expensive.

He couldn’t help but size up Grey once more, trying to figure out if he could afford such movements.

“If you really want to go to the Southern Continent, then you’ll have to spend a large number of essence stones, and I’m not joking when I say a large amount, I mean the amount is alarming,” He explained.

“Oh, how many essence stones do you think it would take for me to get there?” Grey asked curiously.

He didn’t know much about this continent, this was why he decided to travel with Ray. In the Eastern Continent alone, there were over two hundred regions, and each region had multiple cities and towns in them.

According to the map, he was currently in the vale region, and before he could see a teleportation array, he would need to move to a bigger city.

“I can’t really estimate it, since you’re in this region, you can use that token to travel with a seventy percent discount. If you were one of us, then you would’ve been able to travel freely across the cities in this region,” Ray explained, he also added this just to see if he could use this to rope in Grey.

“Guess I have no choice,” Grey muttered.

Hearing this, a sense of joy almost jumped into Ray’s heart, well, almost. The reason for this was because he heard Grey asking a question that killed his hopes.

“What’s the quickest way to earn money here?” Grey asked.

“*Sigh* Selling treasures, if you have high-level techniques as well, they will fetch you a good sum. But that’s all on the premise that you go to a good auction house,” Ray explained.

Although he was disappointed, it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t try to assist Grey. The old man in the special area told him repeatedly to make sure he put up the best impression he could when he was speaking with Grey. Of all the people who came from the Abyss Faction that day, all of them respected that old man, including all the representatives.

Since the old man placed Grey so high, it meant that there was something he saw or noticed that the others didn’t.

“Well, one can’t just chance upon treasures, what about beast cores?” Grey asked.

The possibility of finding treasures was too low, beast cores on the other hand were pretty high. He even had some in his storage ring, and although they were mostly Origin Plane beast cores, it was still something.

“Well, only high staged Rank Five beast cores and above can get you some stones, but you will need a whole lot of them if you are going to depend on beast cores,” Ray explained.

‘Rank Five?’ Grey started to count mentally. Although this was the same system Void uses, he still hasn’t been able to get used to it.

‘Seems they also use this system here,’ He thought.

“I’ll think of something else later on, for now, beast cores would do,” Grey replied.

After a few seconds, he asked, “Where is the nearest city with a teleportation array?”

Ray brought out a map, showing Grey the location of the city.

“Luckily, I’m also heading in this direction. Unfortunately, we’ll split up halfway since I won’t be going to that city,” Ray replied with a smile.

Grey nodded, not refusing to travel with him. He still needed to learn some things, and since Ray offered to help, then he would naturally not let the chance go.

The duo soon started their journey, with Grey asking about this region and about Factions. Ray did his best to tell him all he knew, although, he kind of found Grey’s questions to be bizarre since almost everyone knew about these things.

The city they were heading towards was west of Eagle’s City, and according to Ray, a rival Faction was ruling over that city. This didn’t mean he couldn’t use the teleportation array though since they weren’t under the jurisdiction of small Factions like theirs.

In the Vale region, there are over twenty Factions that were just as powerful as the Abyss Faction, and over fifty that were weaker. From what Ray explained, for low-grade Factions, there should be at least two Peak Sage Plane Elementalists before they can actually be referred to as one.

There are multiple Factions with Sage Plane Elementalists, but since they don’t have any at the Peak of the Plane, they wouldn’t be referred to as a low-grade Faction. There are even low-grade Factions that have Elementalists above the Sage Plane, but they haven’t advanced to become mid-grade Factions yet since they haven’t met the requirements.

Elementalists above the Sage Plane are usually regarded as Venerables by those in lower Planes. In some instances, they are usually called Elemental Venerables.

Grey listened intently while they were on the journey, asking about things he was curious about.

From what Ray said, the journey would take him at least two weeks, he would be with Ray for the first week, then he would be alone by the second.

The first day of their journey went by with Grey getting more knowledge about the Aurora continent.
