Chapter 1304 Fighting Against The Leader Of The Gnome Group

Grey's question infuriated the man, but he knew deep inside him that he didn't believe he would be able to do anything to Grey. Grey was just too strong for them to handle, and with his ability to use the puppets against them made it even hard to deal with him.

Their puppets have always been their biggest advantage, but against Grey, it became their greatest weakness.

"I know you're strong, boy, but don't get ahead of yourself, we can easily kill you off if we want to." The man said coldly.

"You guys have been trying to kill me since I was in the Sage Plane, I'm currently close to the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane, and here I am, still very much alive." Grey chuckled, he took a glance at the man and a cold light flashed through his eyes, "I can't say the same for you though."

The man unconsciously took a step back mid-air, he was frightened. When he realized this, he felt his heart beat faster than it previously was. He couldn't believe he was afraid of a little kid. He had been at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane for years now, even longer than before Grey started his cultivation journey, yet, he was afraid of a boy who hadn't even gotten to the Peak.

Grey saw the body language of the man and knew that he had been able to affect him physiologically. At present, the battle was already won because the man couldn't use his full strength any longer. The fear he felt towards Grey wouldn't make him display his abilities to the fullest.

The man tried to snap himself back to normal, as an expert, he knew he shouldn't start a battle with an inherent fear of his opponent, but it couldn't be helped, Grey was a freak of nature, he should not exist.

"I'll kill you and take your head back to the Emperor." The man said.

"Alright." Grey said in a sarcastic tone. There was not a single atom of confidence in the words of the man, and that boosted Grey's confidence even more.

'I should deal with him and rush to help Klaus and Rey.' He thought to himself.

Alice would be fine since Void was there to rescue her. Void wasn't allowed to intervene in the battle, just rescue Alice and leave. So if Alice is unable to kill the Seventh Prince, Void would let him leave alive, but if Alice was able to kill him then it was his luck.

The man was the first to make a move, just like all Gnomes, he had the darkness element in him, but added to it was the water element. In common sense, he was a Water Elementalist. Unlike humans, Gnomes only use their darkness element to control their puppets, so not many of them have perfect grasp of their darkness element.

The man created a water storm that he sent at Grey.

Grey didn't panic, with a wave of his hand, a powerful earth wall appeared in front of him, he didn't create a normal wall which would take in the brunt force of the water storm, rather, it was in a triangular form, with the tip facing the incoming water storm, so instead of taking the force of the attack, it just directed it to two different sides, leaving Grey completely untouched by the attack.

"You're going to do more than that if you want any chance to even touch me." Grey mocked, his aim was to further affect the mental fortitude of the man, making his job easier.

The man snorted and moved his hand, the water which had gone to the side turned around and wrapped around the triangular wall, and to Grey's surprise, the water started to squeeze the wall. The wall which was supposed to stop the water started to show signs of cracking in the blink of an eye.

The man clenched his opened palm and the wall broke apart, exposing Grey who was in the middle.

Grey reacted quickly, using the space element to escape from the clutches of the incoming water. If he were caught in that, he wasn't certain he would be able to escape with the space element. The force he felt from the water was massive.

His opponent was a Peak Elemental Venerable, after all.

Grey's figure appeared a few hundred meters away from where the attack took place as he saw how the powerful water collided with each other, luckily, he was not there.

The man didn't stop, rather, he turned to water into ice spikes and sent them at Grey who was standing mid-air. The speed of the spikes was shocking.

Grey's body was covered with red lightning, he rarely uses his red lightning, but when it came to dodging attacks with such speed, he would make use of not just the wind element but also the red lightning, as well as his physical speed.

Grey's figure bolted straight into the sea of ice spikes that were rushing at him. Each spike was dangerous enough to instantly kill an Elementalist in the Seventh stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, and seriously injure one in the Ninth stage, but with Grey's speed, it was like a walk in the park. He dodged them, and the ones he couldn't, he would make use of his fire element to destroy them.

The man didn't expect Grey to stroll through his attack with such ease. Yes, he could see that Grey was strolling through at a frightening speed, but it was still shocking to see.

"Damn it!" He had used two attacks, but they seemed useless against Grey.

A large palm made of water appeared to cover the sky, and came crashing down on Grey.

The palm got to where Grey was and closed quickly, trapping him inside.

Grey didn't bulge when he saw this, rather, the lightning on his body increased, and he flew into up, charging into the upper part of the palm.

The man was about to tighten the space in the palm when he noticed a red hot spot at the top of the palm, before he could even realize what was happening, Grey burst out of the palm.
