Chapter 573 - Reynolds' Location

Swoosh! Bang!

The leader of the warriors was sent flying, crashing into the gate to the town, destroying it in the process. Only after he crashed into three buildings did he stop moving.

Everything happened so fast that some of the warriors were still in the midst of laughing. From Grey taking a step, to the leader crashing into multiple buildings didn't take more than three seconds.

Given their speed, they should be able to keep up with a Peak Origin Plane Elementalist, but even their leader who was in the Overlord Plane could not.

"Hmm, how come he's so weak?" Grey asked with a thoughtful expression.

His words stunned the warriors close to him.

What did he mean weak? The leader was a bonafide Overlord Plane Elementalist, and he sent him flying with a flick of his finger and he was calling him weak?

He was the one who was freakishly strong!

Grey had completely forgotten that the strength of those Overlord Plane Elementalists in the Aurora Continent was well above that of those here. Although not all Overlord Plane Elementalists here were weak, most of them couldn't fight against someone in the same stage from the Aurora Continent.

The warriors all stared at Grey, not daring to take a single step.

"Well, looks like it's time to go. Oh, where did you say my friend was again?" Grey turned to the warrior nearest to him.

The warrior wanted to speak out, but he was still too frightened from what just happened. He pointed in the direction of the border.

Grey nodded before taking out the tracking device, and just like they said, a light was very close to him.

'I wonder which of them it is,' He thought to himself before disappearing.

Unfortunately for him, he still couldn't fly. Which was annoying given how powerful he already is. Other than when he's in the Fusion State, or when he's using the technique Meteor Descent, he couldn't keep himself afloat without the help of the wind element.

If he uses that, it would slow him down, so he just opted for running away. Of course the warriors didn't see him running because he used the space element to teleport a good distance away. He just created a powerful image of himself in the heads of these people, how embarrassing would it be that they would have to see him running on foot?

After he left.

The warriors finally breathed out a sigh of relief, some of them even held their breaths all through the time he was still there after he sent their leader flying, they were afraid that their breaths might provoke him.

They hurriedly rushed towards where their leader crashed, and their eyes nearly popped out of their heads. The forehead of their leader caved inside, and there was not a single sign of life in him. They all gulped down their saliva as they stared at each other in fear.

The second in command quickly came out, "Quick, send words back to the Capital, Grey has appeared, and his strength is unprecedented,"

Everyone had been searching for Grey for so long that some people had even concluded that he was dead. Now, he didn't only appear sound and healthy, but he was powerful beyond words.

The second in command didn't even know how to rate Grey's strength since all he needed to kill their leader was nothing more than a flick.

The warriors nodded before one of them ran towards a horse, after mounting it, he charged towards the Capital.

Grey and his friends were said to have refined the Great Earth Essence Liquid, and someone in the Capital had a way of extracting the cores of these geniuses. According to what was said, Grey and his friends were geniuses, with the addition of the Great Earth Essence Liquid, they would be far above their peers.

Grey's performance not too long ago was already a testament to how far he had improved thanks to the Great Earth Essence Liquid.

….

At the border of the Azure Empire.

Reynolds was currently hiding in a cave, tending to his injuries.

He had been on the run for a while now, and a Fifth stage Overlord Plane Elementalist had been after him for a while now. He was just in the First stage of the Overlord Plane, while his Elemental Warrior had reached the Fifth stage as well.

It is stronger than the Elementalist that was chasing after him, but the Elementalist wasn't alone. With the help of two other Overlord Plane Elementalists, it was difficult for him to escape.

He was already very lucky since he had managed to run away from their encirclement a few times, but he was injured during the last escape. Because of this, he hadn't been able to advance.

If he had a few weeks, then he would be able to break through to the Second stage of the Overlord Plane, and his Elemental Warrior getting to the Sixth stage of the Overlord Plane. Without his Elemental Warrior, he could take on someone in the Third stage of the Overlord Plane while still being in the First stage. He was regarded as a genius who could fight across stages after all.

From the rumors he heard, Alice and Klaus were already in the Second and Third stages of the Overlord Plane. Klaus was the one who had the highest stage, and he could even fight against a Fifth stage Overlord Plane Elementalist.

The time he was caught, it was said that he fought against a Sixth stage Overlord Plane Elementalist for hours, before he was finally defeated. But just as he was being transported to the Capital, a powerful Elementalist appeared, wiping out all the people who caught him.

Reynolds was certain that this powerful Elementalist was none other than the Principal, but he wasn't too sure since the person was said to have wiped out the entire group with nothing more than a simple glance.

An Overlord Plane Elementalist shouldn't be able to do that.

While Reynolds was still healing, he sensed three auras approaching quickly and his expression turned sour.
