Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1080 Preparing To Breakthrough

Chapter 1080 Preparing To Breakthrough

The group headed back to the Faction. Grey decided he would use the treasure given to him by Ellis' father when he starts his seclusion once again. He had completed some missions, so he would have some time to himself and not have to worry about Grand Elder Archibald making trouble with him.

They soon got back to the Faction and Ellis told him of his plan to stay on this Continent for a while. There was nothing interesting going on in his Family, so he wanted to take some time out. Also, he wanted to train Aelie as well.

Grey had no issues with that and after sorting out a few things, he headed into the Faction with Keith and Void.

They both went to report the completion of their missions.

Grey left immediately after he was done, heading straight for his place. He wanted to focus on cultivating now.

….

Time flew by and the region was quite settled. Grey was cultivating and hadn't been seen in months, other than a few battles, there wasn't anything important going on.

Klaus and the others were all focused on cultivating as well. They couldn't be bothered by what was happening outside at the moment, they wanted to grow stronger, and fast.

Three months into his seclusion cultivation, Grey was preparing to break through to the Elemental Venerable Plane when he got a piece of information.

Every fifty years, a compet.i.tion will be held across the entire Aurora Continent to determine the top geniuses in the Continent.

They would all be separated into different parts, the Elemental Venerable Plane was the highest, and then the Sage Plane. Those in the Overlord Plane would also get a chance to compete, but the real main characters of the compet.i.tion are those in the Sage and Elemental Venerable Plane.

The news quickly spread across the entire Continent. Youths started to cultivate so they could show their might in the compet.i.tion, while others went out to train their practical combat skills.

The compet.i.tion would take place in another five months, enough time for all of them to see some major improvements in their abilities.

….

Pyrmond Faction.

Grey decided to step out for a bit. He wanted to break through to the Elemental Venerable Plane and he knew doing that in the Faction might not be a good thing for him. He knew how often he tended to cause commotions when breaking through, there have been times when he even caused a commotion while breaking through to a minor stage, much less a major Plane like this time.

When he came out, he saw Keith preparing to go out as well. Keith could be said to be advancing pretty quickly as well.

"Did you hear about the compet.i.tion?" Keith asked when he saw Grey.

"Yeah." Grey nodded.

"Will you take part in it?" Keith looked at him curiously, given Grey's strength, it wouldn't be a problem for him to dominate whichever part he joins in the compet.i.tion. There's a high chance that he might be able to break through to the Elemental Venerable Plane before then, at that time, he would only battle with others in the Early stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane.

"We'll see." Grey didn't show too much optimism.

Over the course of a few years, he had partic.i.p.ated in way too many compet.i.tions. He had won so many that he was starting to get numb to the feeling. To be honest, he wasn't too interested in the so-called t.i.tle of the greatest genius of the current generation.

This doesn't mean that he would not like to attend the compet.i.tion, if something were to come up at that same time, he would most likely opt not to go for the compet.i.tion.

"Alright. Headed out?" Keith asked.

Grey nodded and continued walking forward.

Void appeared on his shoulder lazily.

'Looks like you're at your limit.' He commented.

Grey had used the treasure given to him by Ellis, and his strength increased once again. Originally, his physical strength had not gotten to the Peak of the Sage Plane. But after he absorbed that treasure, his physique saw a boost and now he was at the Peak with both his cultivation stage and his physical body.

Void found the treasure quite mysterious, how could something be able to bring out the true potential of the Dragon blood essence so easily?

It must be something rare, if not, there would've been more people like this.

'Yeah. I'll be going to see if I can temper my body a little bit before breaking through.' Grey replied.

Grey's body was at a limit, but he felt he could still increase it a little further. Unlike most people, he didn't really feel too much of a bottleneck. There are some people who have stayed at the Peak of the Sage Plane their whole lives.

Other than the time he stayed at the Peak of the Origin Plane for so long, he had been breaking through without a hitch so far. Before he got to the Peak of the Origin Plane, he was also breaking through quite easily as well.

The duo continued chatting as they headed out of the Faction.

….

Some days later.

Grey decided to go far away from where the Faction was located just to be safe. After leaving, he also used his s.p.a.ce element to teleport a few times, while also using some of the teleportation arrays he had set up in multiple places. He didn't dare to be careless.

If others find out the secret hidden in his body, he would be in danger.

"This should be safe." He muttered as they appeared in a mountain range filled with Magical Beasts.

"Not entirely, there are multiple powerful auras here." Void said as he looked around.

His senses were sharper than Grey's, so he could tell if there was danger.

"Should we leave then?" Grey asked.

"No need, none of them are in the Elemental Venerable Plane. My domain should protect you for some time. The only thing is that after you break through, it wouldn't be of any use. But during your breakthrough, you should be fine." Void rea.s.sured.
