Chapter 1310 Destructive Blow

"How do you want us to kill him?" Klaus asked Reynolds as they were running through the woods.

The battle was getting more intense, if not for the bunny leader, they would've been caught a long time ago. Yes, they were also attacking, but with their normal speed, there was no way they would be faster than the Peak Venerables chasing after them, adding the puppets to it made life even worse for them.

At the moment, Reynolds could barely keep his Elemental Warrior active, after taking multiple hits, it was starting to show signs of wearing off.

He knew that he needed to take a break soon, and if he didn't, it would take a while before he could use the Elemental Warrior again.

"We'll decide after surviving this." He replied while looking behind them.

Their pursuers are getting closer once again. The puppets were the ones leading, while the others were behind the puppets.

"Where's the rabbit?" Reynolds asked.

He couldn't take it any longer, he needed to leave now. Taking the risk of not being able to use his Elemental Warrior for a long time wasn't something he wanted to do.

The bunny leader appeared as soon as he spoke.

"Take us out of here. Not too far so we can make sure they don't leave." Klaus said to the bunny leader.

The bunny leader nodded and before the puppets could get close to where they were, they vanished without a trace.

The puppets didn't know where to go and paused, waiting for the Gnomes.

"Where did they go?" The Second Prince looked around questioningly.

The others had the same expression, they didn't know where Klaus and Reynolds disappeared to, one minute they could sense them, and the next it was as if they were never there.

"Search around, they must be hiding somewhere close by."

Klaus and Reynolds had managed to evade them, giving themselves breathing space and a chance to recover some of their energy.

….

On Grey's end.

The battle was at its peak. The Gnome puppets the leader of the Gnome group was using were exceptional, they might not be stronger than Grey individually, but together, along with the man, they were all a force to be reckoned with. Any other person at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane would've been defeated by now, much less someone who was in the Ninth Stage.

Grey didn't feel any fear as he battled them, he knew all he needed was an opportunity and he would be able to take out the man who was controlling them.

The man was shocked by Grey's abilities, even someone of his character was shocked by Grey's tenacity. The fact that Grey could fight against so many opponents and still look so cool-headed was shocking for someone his age. If not for the fact that the man could sense Grey's age, he would've said Grey was over a hundred years old.

Grey was calm and composed as he fought against the puppets, the man didn't involve himself too much in the battle as he was afraid of Grey's explosiveness. Grey might look calm, but he believed that Grey was plotting how to take him down with a single blow.

To be fair, this was exactly what was going through Grey's head, but the man had been too cautious and it was impossible for him to do anything. The man was so wary of his switch skill that he didn't dare to be close to any of the puppets, giving them a good distance.

Grey had been planning on how to take him down, but he knew it wouldn't be easy.

Boom! Bang!

Grey and the puppets exchanged blow for blow, the bodies of the puppets were extraordinarily strong, and so was Grey's physical body, so whenever they exchanged blows, it sounded like metal clashing against metal and not flesh hitting flesh.

Grey was battered from the blows, and the puppets were no good either. The man was still trying to recover his strength from the blow he took from Grey, so although he was occasionally interfering, he knew not to be too involved.

Grey created two inscriptions that possessed high attack power, and unleashed them on the puppets, keeping them at bay. He didn't stop there, rather, he made use of the array he had been creating since the start of the battle. The second he saw the Gnome puppets, he knew that this would be a tough battle, so he started to create an array that he would use to bolster his strength. Now, the array was ready.

The man was caught off-guard by the sudden inclusion of the array. Grey's abilities shot up and his figure vanished faster than it usually does. Before the man could pinpoint his location, he felt his body being pulled down by a shocking force.

Grey was using both the gravitational force field as well as the help of his space element to drag the man down.

The man tried to take control of his body, and after noticing that it wouldn't be easy, he summoned the puppets over. Only one of the puppets was able to get close to him as the other two were held back by the inscriptions. These inscriptions possessed the abilities of a Ninth stage Elemental Venerable. Even if they were at the Peak, the man couldn't let the attack hit them carelessly. If not, his puppets might take irreparable damages.

Grey naturally wouldn't give the man the chance to balance himself, he charged toward the man and unleashed a powerful punch, the punch was filled with the space element, releasing a destructive power that scared the man witless.

The man didn't think twice and the puppet that he called to his side was placed to take the punch that was coming his way.

The body of the puppet started to fall apart after being hit by the blow. The power behind the punch and the use of the space element made it a very destructive blow.
