Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 934 Shiny Crystal

Boom!

Grey forced the lady back with a fireball.

The lady was a Water Elementalist but against Grey, she was powerless. Grey wasn't even using close to sixty percent of his usual attack power, yet he was still comfortably overpowering her.

'Isn't she a little too weak?'

This thought flashed through Grey's head as he pushed her back once again.

After fighting against geniuses for most of his time in the Aurora Continent, he forgot that there were still normal people who didn't have strength exceeding their stages. So even when he wanted to go easy on her, he still overwhelmed her.

Grey continued his onslaught of attacks, since he already had the advantage, there was no need in holding back.

A blade made from fire appeared and he slashed it at the lady. The lady tried to block the attack with an ice wall, but Grey's fire was just too powerful for her. It easily broke through the defense and sent the lady flying once again.

Bang!

The lady crashed into the ground. Since the start of the battle, Grey was the only one who managed to almost defeat his opponent. It hadn't even been up to three minutes, yet his strength was already made known to the others.

He naturally attracted the attention of those fighting beside him.

A middle-aged man who looked to be around his late thirties rushed over to block Grey so he would not be able to attack the lady who was trying to stand up.

The man was in the Third stage of the Sage Plane just like the lady, but his aura was much stronger and it was clear that they were not on the same level.

With a powerful roar, the man charged at Grey. He was an Earth Elementalist and he wanted to use his superior physique to overpower Grey.

When Grey saw him charging towards him, he smiled and waited for the man. The man threw a punch in his direction, and even before the punch got to where he was, he could feel the overbearing strength of the earth element.

Grey reciprocated the attack with a punch of his own. His punch was filled with the fire element and it gave off intense heat.

The two fists clashed and to the surprise of the man, he was sent flying while Grey stayed in the same spot.

The man stabilized himself mid-air and looked at Grey in shock. He was a little taken aback by Grey's strength. Even after using most of his strength, Grey not only managed to block the attack, but he even repelled him quite easily.

The lady flew into the air, floating beside the man. They nodded at each other and with a tacit understanding, they charged at Grey.

Grey stood alone in the air, waiting for the duo to attack. Just as they got close to him, he unleashed a sea of flames that started to spread out with terrifying power. Fire arrows shot out of the flame, aiming at the duo who were rushing his way.

The man and the lady blocked the attacks as they drew closer to Grey, attacking him with their respective elements.

Grey dodged their attacks and countered.

While Grey was fighting against two people, the battles around had started to heat up. Their task at the moment was to stop the people who wanted to invade the city.

Those above the Sage Plane didn't take part in the battle since just the ripples from their clash would destroy the city. If not for an array covering the city, it would've been destroyed by the ripples from these Sage Plane experts already.

Grey was not the only youngster there. Close to him, there was another youth who was in the Sage Plane, his cultivation was a little lower than Grey's since he was in the First stage, but his attack power was far above the First stage. He was holding his own against a Third stage Sage Plane Elementalist. Even though he didn't have the advantage, he wasn't being subdued by the other.

There were two more who stood out, while in the battle of those in the Overlord Plane, there were multiple youths. Some of them came here to gain experience from these battles. It was quite valuable, however, it was also dangerous.

Grey didn't think too much about others. He naturally wouldn't let those around him die since it would put him under pressure, but he also didn't want to show too much strength.

He sent the man flying while holding off an attack from the lady.

The lady grabbed his leg with a tentacle made from water and dragged him closer to the man. Before Grey could cut off the tentacle, the man was already prepared and slammed him with a large earth hammer.

Grey didn't bother with the tentacle any longer and slashed his fire blade at the hammer, tearing it into two.

After doing this, he was tugged to the side once again, but he managed to resist the pull, attacking the lady with a rain of fire.

The lady created a water dome to block the attack, but Grey slashed his fire sword at it and created an opening for the fire rain.

The attack was just about to hit the lady when the man stepped forward once again and blocked it on her behalf.

Grey was a little irked by this. Normally, if he used his space element as well, he would've taken them out a long time ago.

'Void, how are things going?' He tried to see what Void had gotten so far.

…

Thousands of meters away from the battleground.

Void was going through a camp silently. There were Elemental Venerables here, and he knew any mishap, he would be found out. He didn't need to hurry, but now was the best time to raid this place. Well, it couldn't really be called a raid, more like taking when they were not around.

He had searched through almost all the tents around, and other than a few things, he hadn't seen anything useful. He strolled into one of the tents and his eyes lit up, there were weapons here.

Although Elementalists rarely used weapons, the same can't be said for when they were fighting a war. In wars, weapons can not only be used to increase strength, but also defense.

Grey's voice rang in his head at the time he appeared there.

'I just got to the place where they keep their weapons. It's pretty nice, and shiny.' He replied while licking his lips.

'Take everything, we might need to sell them later in the future.' Grey said.

'You don't need to tell me twice.' Void said while emptying the entire place.

Even before talking to Grey, he had started to take the weapons, so when Grey told him to take them, he was already almost done with the things.

After taking it, he walked to the next tent. There were still some more tents he hadn't checked out, so he didn't mind taking a look around.

While moving, he saw a crystal in one of the tents. There were over seven people inside, and all of them were in the Elemental Venerable Plane and above.

However, they didn't enter Void's eyes since all he could see at the moment was the shiny crystal.

'I need to get it.' He said to himself.

He decided to wait for the men to leave the place and steal the crystal. He didn't know what it was used for, nor did he care at the moment.

…

Back on the battlefield.

Grey had taken down his opponents as he looked at them from above. Turning around, he noticed the First stage Sage Plane genius was in trouble with his opponent as he was being overwhelmed at the moment.

Grey rushed over to help him out. It would be a shame if a genius died in such a battle.

With a smack, he sent the Third stage Sage Plane Elementalists fighting against him flying.

The young man looked at him with grateful eyes.

"Thank you."

"It's okay. We should help each other." Grey replied casually.

He turned to go after the man who was beating the youth some moment ago.

He continued attacking while the man blocked with his life. From the first attack, he knew he was not on Grey's level, so he tried to drag another person to help him out.

Grey was not bothered by multiple opponents, he could easily fight against them. It was time for him to bring out his space element.

When the two people stood facing him, he vanished.

Their pupils constricted since they didn't think Grey was a Space Elementalist as well.

Grey appeared beside them and exploded with a fire element burst attack.

The duo tried to block the attack but were sent flying.

Grey vanished once again, appearing beside one of them and sending him off.
