Chapter 1416 Descendant Of A God?
Bang!
The man crashed into the ground, dazed from what he just witnessed.
Grey was on the other side of the explosion, he was also impacted by it and felt a tinge of burning sensation as the heat from the explosion blew past his skin.
The result of the explosion was beyond Grey's imagination. He knew it would be strong, but he didn't expect it to be this powerful.
"He broke through?" He murmured, but then he looked at the sky and shook his head.
"No, that's not how this usually works. The energy should've been transferred into his body, but now the energy has dispersed."
Grey thought hard and he came to the same conclusion as the man, he has forcibly stopped the man from breaking through to the Sovereign Plane by destroying the energy that gathered in the sky.
'But... that shouldn't be possible, right?' Grey was left speechless by his deduction. If he's accurate, doesn't that mean others could stop people from breaking through to the Sovereign Plane at the last minute. Just the thought of it alone scared him.
If the world were to find out about this, then everyone would be more secretive when they want to break through and have trusted people to guard them from any potential attacks on the energy.
Grey was baffled at the scene, he had never heard of the energy being dispersed before.
'Is it that no one ever attempted to do this?' He wondered as he took to the sky, patiently awaiting for when the explosion would die down.
Without the explosion dying down he could already sense the energy that was destroyed. He literally blew a hole in the sky, causing a large spatial tear. This is something incredulous on its own, dispersing the energy a Venerable wants to use to get to the Sovereign Plane was even more unbelievable.
Grey could sense the presence of the man, he marked him after all and could tell that he wasn't far away.
Just like Grey, he was also impacted by the attack. But unlike Grey, he wasn't fast enough to get to a place with minimal damage, so he was injured from it. This material is derived from n0velbin¶
Grey didn't wait for too long as the explosion died down within a minute or so and he went straight to where the man was located.
When he got there, he saw a figure that seemed lifeless. The man was alive, clearly still alive, but his eyes were listless. It was obvious that he still couldn't accept the fact that Grey stopped his breakthrough in such a manner. It was too shocking to accept.
Grey shook his head when he saw this man, "There's no point with me causing you any more harm. Klaus would know what to do with you. You're of no threat to anyone like this."
The initial plan was to destroy the man's cultivation base, but right now, he could sense that the man's cultivation stage dropped from being a Pseudo-Sovereign to being an Eighth stage Elemental Venerable.
Grey didn't know the backlash from not being able to break through a major Plane would be this alarming.
As the man was speaking, everyone could see that he was on the verge of going mad. He saw something that left him in a state that shaked him up.
Aries looked at Grey, and then at the man. She couldn't help but wonder what Grey did that left the man in such a state. Halting the man's breakthrough shouldn't make him go mad, unless he did it in a manner that shouldn't be possible.
'He destroyed the energy?'
Aries wondered and then she recalled the process of breaking through to the Sovereign Plane. During the process, the world would gather a special energy and fill up the body of the Venerable that is breaking through.
"That's can be destroyed?" She blurted out with a shocked expression.
"Who knew?" Grey shrugged, not too bothered about it. He looked at Reynolds, and then at the man, "Fix him."
"You... you... what are you?" The man asked, "Are you the descendant of a God? Only Gods can achieve what you just did. Tell me! I'm ready to be your slave."
The descendant of a God would definitely know a lot of secrets, if Grey were to take him in, he would be able to bring back his daughter.
"Are you brain dead?" Klaus spoke up when he heard the man's demands.
"We want to kill you and you're begging to become his slave? Do you think we'd take an evil person like you in?" Klaus asked.
"Actually, it's not a bad idea. Although he's a Necromancer, and I detest Necromancers, I do have someone there that provides me with some information. It's been a while since I contacted him. I wonder if he knows my identity now." Grey said with a thoughtful expression.
The man did something that intrigued him, which was merging the puppets. As much as he hates Necromancers, this man is clearly a genius. Having such a servant isn't a bad thing, but it's not generally a good thing either.
With how smart the man is, no matter what he does to him, there's a good chance he will be able to destroy it. So even placing an array in his brain or heart wouldn't really be of much help.
"Grey, are you crazy? He tried to kill Rey!" Klaus felt like smacking Grey's head.
"I know, but what's the harm of having one of the enemy's guys? We get more information and other benefits. There's just the fear of him leaking a few things." Grey shrugged, he looked at the man seriously, contemplating if it was worth the risk.
The man would be a good addition to those he has taken in, he just needs to make sure the man's in check and everything would be good.
"Heal my friend, we'll talk after." Grey pointed to Reynolds, and just as the man was about to move, "Also, I'm no descendant of a God."
The man froze when he heard this, clearly hesitating.
"Your choice."
Grey walked to the side after saying this, he was a little tired from the fight, and a few ribs were broken which needs fixing.
