"You're already in the Ninth stage, now I have to make sure you die." The Prince commented. "Haha, is this how you speak to an old friend?" Grey laughed as if he was speaking with a friend. The Prince was annoyed by his words. "We are not friends." The Prince said. "Come on, we could be, given how many times we've seen." Grey joked. The Prince could tell that he was trying to annoy him. Without a second word, he attacked. Throwing his palm forward, a large palm made of pure elemental essence appeared and struck Grey's direction. Unlike Elementalists below the Elemental Venerable Plane, Elemental Venerable could directly control the elemental essence around. Even without trying, they could easily kill multiple Sage Plane Elementalists. Seeing the palm coming his way, Grey's aura spiked, unable to break through past the Sage Plane, but it was obvious that he was currently above the Sage Plane. He also threw a first made of the fire element. The palm and fist collided and it was followed by a large explosion. The impact of the explosion made Grey take a step back to balance himself, the Prince on the other hand was standing in the same position, unperturbed. The Prince squinted his eyes. His attack just now was testing the waters, he hadn't even made any effort. 'He's strong, but not undefeatable.' He concluded after his test. "If this is all you can do, then you should head back before the restrictions here kills you." Grey laughed. The Prince smiled but didn't say a word. He threw another palm, this time, the palm wasn't just pure elemental essence, rather, it seemed to be filled with the fire elemental essence. Pure essence was different from fire or any other elemental essence. It was powerful, but the Prince didn't know how to use it yet, so it wasn't as strong as his fire elemental essence. Grey threw another fist. This time, he also increased the strength and the fist had multiple colors, unlike the first one which was made from just the fire element. When both palm and fist collided, the impact directly destroyed the hall, and all the bodies there disintegrated. Grey was forced to take multiple steps back this time before he was able to regain his footing. The Prince on the other hand didn't take a step back, rather, he took a step forward and directly shot through the explosion, charging at Grey. Grey had just regained his footing when he sensed the Prince appearing in front of him. He attacked his front, not daring to waste any time. He knew fighting against the Prince was a huge gamble, but he wanted to see the strength of Elemental Venerable firsthand, so he came out. Of course he had multiple trump cards that he would use to escape. When he fought against the Prince the last time, he made sure he hid a few things, so that if things got out of his control, he would have to use them to escape. He never expected the Prince to be the one who would arrive, with the Prince here, it would be difficult for him to use the space element to escape, which was his original plan. But being Grey, he made sure he created a few more escape plans, just to be safe. Boom! Grey's attack was about to hit the Prince when he struck forward once again, instantly blasting Grey's attack apart and sending his figure flying. Grey spat out a mouthful of blood since he never expected this to happen in the first place. The Prince moved out almost immediately. Grey didn't let his figure hit the ground, with the help of the space element, he maneuvered and appeared mid-air. Multiple inscriptions appeared, as well as chaos orbs. These orbs were different from the one he used the last time he walked into the Prince's ambush. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶 The Prince looked at the orbs and subconsciously didn't dare to charge at Grey, he still recalled how powerful they were the last time. If not for his strength and a few lifesaving treasures, he would've been seriously injured by it. Grey chuckled when he saw this and couldn't help but mock a few times. Whenever he was fighting against an opponent stronger than himself, he knew his best bet was to make sure his opponent's state of mind was not fine. Hanging out with Klaus had honed this skill of his, so could be called a professional. Of course Klaus was still the master. The Prince was irritated by his expression, but there was nothing he could do. Other than his previous experience, he could also tell that these orbs could cause him some damage, as unbelievable as it sounded, he felt threatened by these orbs. What was worse was that Grey actually had so many of them. 'I can't kill him.' The Prince soon knew that he had overestimated himself and underestimated Grey's strength. This was beyond humiliation, if he were to go back and say he couldn't kill a Sage Plane Elementalist, the entire Gnome race might mock him till his death. Gritting his teeth, he charged forward. He had to try, no matter what, he had to try. Grey unleashed the inscriptions first at him. Each attack from the inscription was something that wouldn't be able to harm the Prince. Grey knew this as well. The Prince was on guard as he blocked the attacks, just when he was still prepared to block against an inscription attack, he was stunned when the inscription attack switched places with three chaos orbs. The switch was just too fast, and it happened just when the inscription attack was about to hit him. Boom! The attack pushed the Prince down, and before he could find his footing mid-air, multiple inscription attacks hit him. "Ah! I'll kill you!" He roared in anger. Just now, he wasted his energy trying to block the attacks since he was scared that it was one of the chaos orbs, but to his shock, it was one of those useless attacks.
