Affinity: Chaos



The last of the trio was heading still trying to break the array holding the item he wanted. He had the highest cultivation stage among them, and his eyes were placed on a strange snake-like fruit at one of the last few tables. 

Grey looked at him and found the fruit interesting, but he knew there was no way the young man could break through the array. If he tried to open it now, it might only attract the envy of the young man. He planned to wait for the young man to leave first, then he would try and open it. He had no idea what the fruit was and its uses, but he knew it would be good. 

Thinking about it, he brought out the bunny leader, alongside Void. Even if not all the items were top-tier, there were still a few that were not bad. 

The second the bunny leader appeared it moved toward a table, unlike the others, it directly strolled past the array and took the item.

Grey gave a wry smile, while others were working hard to open an array, the bunny leader walked past it like it was nonexistent. 

'Hey, can you take the others?' He hurriedly asked the bunny leader. 

'Easy.' The bunny leader replied and entered another place, taking another item.

The eyes of the trio bulged when they saw this, Grey, on the other hand, smiled brilliantly. This was an opportunity for him to take everything in this building. Even if he didn't take everything, he had to at least take most of the items away. 

The bunny leader vanished soon after. 

"Huh! Where did it go?" The young man in the Third stage asked, aggrieved. He was about to beg the bunny leader to help it with the fruit, but the bunny leader disappeared almost the same way it appeared.

He turned his eyes to Grey, almost pleading. He knew the duo that was there with him, they didn't have a Magical Beast. The bunny leader belonged to either Grey or Alice, he was sure of it. 

Grey acted like he didn't see anything, while Alice showed no reactions. The young man could only give up. Grey had already helped them get here, and although it looked like they were helping each other, they knew Grey wouldn't have any issues with getting to this point. 

The young man glanced at the fruit, a little reluctant, but he still left it. Since he couldn't get it, he would try something else.

Void was still around, looking around casually. He stared at the box on the last table and vanished, appearing inside. He opened the box and it was filled with delicious fruits. He laughed in delight and kept it. Unlike the bunny leader, Void was unreserved, he straight up started to plunder everything there. 

The bunny leader appeared once again and the duo started ransacking the place. 

The young man in the Third stage of the Elemental Venerable could only increase the speed of breaking through the array. Before the two demons got to where he was, he had forcefully opened it, even risking injury and taking an item. 

He wanted to explode in anger, but Grey was not only stronger, but the threat of death he was getting from Void was stronger than Grey. It wasn't that Void was stronger than Grey, but unlike Grey, Void had no reservations about killing him. 

After taking the item, they all sensed a spatial aura on it. They could teleport from this place once they got hold of an item. 

The young man thanked Grey and left with the other two. 

Alice chuckled seeing them run, "Void is unscrupulous."

"It has nothing to do with me." Grey shrugged. 

Void had always been like this. From the first time he hatched out of an egg, he took up most of Grey's gains from the trail land at that time. Grey was so vexed that he wanted to kill him. What was worse was that he still gave him part of the treasure he acquired there. 

A minute later, Void and the bunny leader returned, they had taken all the treasures here. 

"Delicious!" Void exclaimed as he swallowed one of the fruits. 

He didn't take the fruits because they were treasures, when he opened the box, he smelled the delicious fragrance from it and decided to take everything else. There were still a few fruits there. 

"Where's my share?" Grey asked. 

Void casually tossed one of the fruits at Grey. 

Grey didn't mind and took a bite. The fruit melted in his mouth almost immediately and his tongue gave him a sensation of exploding from the great taste. That was not the only thing, he could feel essence rushing into his body, but his taste buds were giving him terrific feedback at the moment that he even forgot about doing anything with the great impact of the fruit. 

Void gave Alice one as well. Her reaction was the same as the others. However, her face soon flushed red. She was weaker than Grey and Void, so the essence, although powerful, wasn't too much for them. She, on the other hand, was still too weak, not even at the Peak of the Sage Plane yet. 

She sat down cross-legged and started to cultivate. 

In the blink of an eye, her aura started to increase. 

"Is it that great?" Grey was taken aback. He sensed something from the fruit, but it was not enough for him to break through. Before entering this place, he recently broke through to the Elemental Venerable Plane. 

He didn't have any plans of breaking through any time soon. Advancing too quickly wasn't good for him. Especially after learning this technique from the young man. The more he advanced, the weaker his control over his strength. Once his control drops, his overall strength might not increase much. 

He only wants to break through after getting used to his current strength. His current plan was to stay in the First stage for a few more months, at least two months or so. 

If others knew his thoughts, they might die from depression. Others took at least four months or so in a stage when in the Elemental Venerable Plane, these referred to those geniuses from top Families and Factions. Some people even stayed on a stage for more than a year, yet Grey didn't want to break through, and felt waiting two more months wasn't bad.
