Chapter 359: Replica Grey was currently running away, with the Leopard not too far from him. The aura of the Leopard made running easier, all the magical beasts retreat whenever they get close. ‘It’s been a while I’ve been chased like this,’ Grey thought as he ran. Of course, he could easily escape. If he uses the space element, he would be able to give the Leopard a considerable distance. With the Leopard’s intelligence, it naturally knew when to give up. But Reynolds was still in the forest, and he couldn’t leave without him. ‘Huh? They’re following after me,’ Grey looked behind him, he could sense people coming in his direction. ‘Hehe, time to ditch this stupid cat on them,’ He snickered inside before changing his direction. While running, he broke a tree branch that was exactly the same size as the lightning tree. As he ran, he steadily pumped the lightning element into the tree. With his high elemental grade, and mastery in arrays, he managed to create an array around the branch, that was about to suck in the lightning element into the tree branch. Before long, the tree looked identical to the lightning tree he uprooted, its aura was even almost identical. Grey placed it in his storage ring, next to the original lightning tree. The array drew a little of its aura, making it difficult for even him to differentiate them, luckily he knew which was which when he placed it in the storage ring. After making a replica of the lightning tree, he ran in the direction of the people, after using the Leopard to run a cycle around a small hill. It didn’t long before people appeared in sight, the young man was among the people who were going after him. “I’m not willing to die because of this stupid thing. Do you guys want it so much? Here!” Grey threw the branch that was wrapped with a cloth to the people. Seeing the branch that was covered with a cloth heading towards them, the first thought that came to their mind was that it was fake, it was when the cloth accidentally blew away from the branch while it was still mid-air did they start to believe it might be real. The young man was the first to charge forward, with his superior speed, he could grab the branch before others. The Leopard chased after the branch as well, compared to the others, he sensed the essence in the branch even before the cloth blew away. Roar! It roared, trying to intimidate the young man, as well as the others from collecting the branch. The young man paid deaf ears to its warning, grabbing the branch and running in another direction. The Leopard and the people chased after him. Some of the people were already at the end of their life, although they looked young, they barely had over five years left remaining in their lifespan. While others couldn’t advance anymore. A treasure like the lightning tree was what they needed to help them break through to the Overlord Plane. Grey looked from the side as they all ran after the young man. “Well, that’s that,” He dusts his hands, before casually walking back to the forest. On his way, he suddenly saw a flash of lightning dashing past him, behind that flash of lightning was another one. Looking closer, the first flash was the Lightning Elementalist from the triplet, while the one at the back was Lukka. “Oh, they attacked, how wonderful,” Grey said in delight before taking out the communication device, as well as the disc. After looking at it, he went in the direction Reynolds was hiding while speaking to him. Ten minutes later. “Hey bud,” Grey said in front of an old tree. “You don’t look like someone who has been running away from a magical beast at the Peak of the Origin Plane,” Reynolds said after jumping down from the tree. “You see, after doing something for a long time, you become a pro at it. I could run for hours, and you wouldn’t know,” Grey said nonchalantly. “Come on, let’s leave. My trick should’ve already expired by now,” He started walking, following the direction they used in coming here. “Thanks bud,” Reynolds said as he caught up. “We’re already past that, Rey,” Grey said while looking at the map. “*Sigh* Fine, let’s go. Next time, I hope I’m the one who gets to help you,” Reynolds said. “Sure,” Grey replied. After confirming they were going in the right direction, they continued walking while speaking. Grey told him of how he was able to harm the Darkness and the Fire Elementalist. He didn’t know what happened after leaving, but seeing Lukka chasing after the Lightning Elementalist probably meant the couple had dealt with the other two. It took them about thirty minutes or so before they got to the exit of the forest. Given the fact that most of the people were running after the lightning tree, Grey guessed they would be the first people to exit the forest. On leaving the forest, Grey was surprised to see Lukka sitting at the place where the guild camped. “You’re Grey, right?” Lukka stood up, walking in their direction. “Yes,” Grey nodded calmly. He didn’t feel scared or worried about the appearance of Lukka. “I never thought you’d be the one who would obtain it,” Lukka said. “I do,” Grey smiled. “Where’s that guy you were chasing?” He asked when he didn’t see any signs of the Lightning Elementalist. “He managed to escape, but without his brothers, he isn’t much of a problem,” Lukka replied. “Oh, how unfortunate,” Grey shook his head softly. “So, what now?” He asked, looking at Lukka. “You should leave before the others come, if they find you here, they wouldn’t be so welcoming. They might’ve let you leave the first time, but I’m not sure they’d let you go for a second time,” Lukka advised. “I’m not bothered by them. It’s not like they can do anything to me,” Grey shrugged. But in the end, he took Lukka’s advise, leaving with Reynolds.
