Gilbert’s mood changed after listening to Grey’s words, and he didn’t angrily charge recklessly at the man in front of him any longer.
The man seemed to notice the change and tried to rile him up once again. To his surprise, it didn’t work, Gilbert didn’t seem to have any sort of reaction to whatever he was saying.
The man gave up and started to fight against him fiercely. He was a well-known Fire Elementalist, and with his strength, although Gilbert was in the same stage as himself, he had more experience compared to him. He knew Gilbert since he was born and had never seen him use the earth element before, which was why he was rattled.
‘To think that fool hid him so deeply.’ He thought to himself as a fire snake was sent at Gilbert.
Gilbert sent out a lightning arrow, but the fire snake dodged it before attacking him.
Gilbert’s body was covered with the wind element as he dodged the attack. After dodging, he wanted to use the wind element to suck the man in his direction.
However, the man didn’t move an inch and attacked with a powerful fire attack. He was forced to stop trying to get the man close to him and blocked the attack coming his way.
Gilbert and the man exchanged moves for a couple more minutes before the man decided it was time to leave. Although he was not as strong as Gilbert, it was impossible for Gilbert to kill him.
The man was very cautious when fighting and didn’t expose any openings for Gilbert to get a complete advantage over him.
Gilbert was unable to use his metal domain to his advantage anymore since the man already understood how it worked.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Grey blocked the path of the man.
p-A- n-d-A-n-0-v-e-1、(c)om “Step aside.” The man attacked.
Grey spread out his gravitational force field. The unsuspecting man was dragged to the ground by the pull, and before he could get himself Grey had already sent him flying with a punch, making him appear in front of Gilbert once again.
“What are you doing here?!”
Only now did the man recall that he had seen Grey taking his subordinates away some minutes back. He didn’t expect Grey would interfere with his battle while fighting against two people at the Peak of the Sage Plane. Although those people weren’t as strong as himself, they were still genuine Peak Sage Plane Elementalists.
He sensed Grey’s strength and Grey was only in the Ninth stage at the time he came over.
‘How can a Ninth stage Sage Plane Elementalist defeat them? Impossible!’ He was in disbelief.
Grey couldn’t be bothered with him, after sending him in Gilbert’s direction, he sat by the side to watch the show.
Gilbert attacked the man the moment he saw him. He knew Grey was the one who sent him back so he made sure that he killed the man.
Some minutes later, Gilbert walked over to where Grey was currently sitting down, he had some injuries, and blood was on some parts of his body, his face was also slightly pale, but the man was dead.
“Thank you.” He said to Grey.
Grey looked at him for a long time before asking, “I’m curious, how did you do that thing?”
Gilbert froze for some time, he knew what Grey was talking about but didn’t reply.
Seeing his hesitation to speak, Grey didn’t dwell on the matter any longer, “You can leave, whatever happens from here on out has nothing to do with me.”
After saying this, before Gilbert could say a word, Grey vanished.
Gilbert looked in the direction Grey headed and couldn’t help but shake his head, a small crystal orb appeared on his hand and disappeared soon after. Without saying anything else, he vanished from his position as well.
There was no use in staying there.
….
While Grey and Gilbert were facing off against the group, Alice, Reynolds, and Klaus had managed to catch up with the person who got the treasure Alice wanted.
Unlike Grey who wanted to trade for it at first, the trio attacked the person the moment they caught up to her.
The person was surprisingly a young lady who was at the Peak of the Sage Plane.
She was a Darkness Elementalist and seeing that she was besieged by three powerful people, she gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll kill you people!”
To the shock of the trio, three coffins appeared and corpses came out of them. Each of the corpses released an aura at the Peak of the Sage Plane.
One of them seemed to release an aura identical to Klaus’s. After staying in the Moonlight Faction and studying their techniques, there was a unique aura that only those from the Moonlight Faction had, one of the corpses which was that of a female radiated such aura.
Klaus’ eyes shone with an icy glow as he looked at the figure that radiated the aura of the Moonlight Faction.
“I’ll deal with that one, you two deal with the rest.” He said.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m
They already knew of necromancers, and they never expected that the Darkness Elementalist in front of them was one. Thinking of their evil acts, and how they wanted to get rid of Grey, they wanted to make sure she was eliminated.
Alice and Reynolds nodded before charging at the two, as well as the young lady.
With the help of her Seelie, Alice started to fight against one of the corpses, Reynolds’ Elemental Warrior fought against one while Reynolds himself started to fight against the young lady.
Although he was not her match, with the help of his Elemental Warrior that would occasionally interfere, he was able to fight against her for some time.
Klaus was using almost the same techniques as the corpse in front of him. However, he was conscious, unlike the corpse, so he managed to gain the advantage.
Cultivating the same techniques meant that he knew their weaknesses and was using them to his advantage. The corpses don’t have the strength of a normal Peak Sage Plane Elementalist, so the gap in strength was made up for by him knowing the weakness of the corpse’s technique.
Before long, he started to overwhelm the corpse. Not just that, but he was seeing an increase in his strength as well. Compared to when he sparred with his fellow Faction members, he didn’t have to enter the state of life or death battle so it wasn’t serious, now that he was in such a state, he was starting to improve at an unprecedented pace.
‘I’ll break through after this fight.’
Without even checking, he already knew that once he started to digest his gains from the battle, it wouldn’t take more than a few days before he broke through to the Ninth stage of the Sage Plane.
His entire body was covered in ice as he skillfully dodged the attack coming his way, ice spread out from his body and the corpse was covered in it.
Before the corpse could make any moves, Klaus’ eyes shone once again and the intensity of the ice increased greatly.
Crack!
The ice covering the body of the corpse started to crack, but new ice would reappear with each crack.
Klaus’ domain spread out, covering the corpse as well.
A minute later, Klaus looked at the frozen corpse in satisfaction.
He was even faster than Reynolds’ Elemental Warrior in dealing with one of the corpses.
Alice wasn’t having an easy time, so he rushed over to help her out.
….
“Hand it over.” Klaus said coldly.
All three corpses had been immobilized, and against them, the young lady didn’t stand a chance.
“In your dreams.” The young lady snorted.
The corpses suddenly glowed with a bright light.
“F*ck! They’re going to self-destruct!” Klaus released a thick ice mist from his body which covered all three of them.
He couldn’t be bothered with the young lady at the moment. The self-destruction of three Peak Sage Plane Elementalists was not something to be taken lightly.
The young lady used the opportunity to try to escape.
Just as she was running away, Grey’s figure appeared.
At the same time Grey’s figure appeared, Reynolds’ Elemental Warrior also appeared in front of the young lady, accompanied by Alice’s Seelie.
Looking at how Klaus was protecting them and they were attacking, he decided to stay away from the fight. He would only take action if the young lady managed to escape.
Boom!
The explosion sounded out and the sound of Klaus’ ice shell cracking rang out.
Even with that, the Elemental Warrior and the Seelie were still fighting against the young lady, making sure to hold her back.
After the explosion died down, the ice shell Klaus created to protect himself and his friends appeared in view, some parts of it had been broken, but the inner part remained intact.
Klaus came out with the others with an arrogant expression, “You think you can hurt us? Not on my watch.”
“Shut up, I literally saw you shaking from the pressure as you reinforced the wall.” Reynolds mocked.
“I should’ve thrown you out.” Klaus said with a dark face.
