Chapter 827 Hiding In Poison Miasma
Chapter 827 Hiding In Poison Miasma
Just when Grey finished killing the others, he sensed something and his expression changed.
Boom!
A large explosion resounded out and Void's domain was forcefully broken.
"A Sage Plane Elementalist."
Grey didn't need any confirmation to know of this. Without even thinking, he brought out one of his Teacher's talisman and crushed it. The horned men flashed and disappeared.
Grey still didn't know how they were able to remain alive on his storage ring, even after researching it countless times.
Covered by a bright light, he rushed in the direction of the location of the floating herb. According to what he knew, these people wouldn't be able to get into the place.
A middle-aged man appeared and chased after him. The man had a skinny build, and he exuded an eerie aura. Grey didn't need to speak to the person to know that he was a necromancer.
The man chuckled and rushed after him, laughing. To him, Grey's escape was a futile effort.
He chased after Grey and his expression soon changed when he saw where Grey was entering. He paused and looked at Grey with a stunned expression.
"Fool, you'll die if you enter there." The necromancer said.
He wanted to kill Grey and make him one of his puppets. From the previous battle, he could already tell Grey was a talented individual. The domain made him even more astonished.
"Chase me in here if you can." Grey's voice echoed into his ears as he watched Grey charge into the miasma without fear.
"Fool!" The necromancer stopped and looked at Grey with an annoyed look.
He had been tracking the aura of the mark for thousands of meters, only to get here and lose the target. He felt irritated because his journey was a waste of time.
To him, the second Grey walked into the place, he was dead. The thought of even trying to retrieve his corpse didn't cross his mind. He wasn't that desperate. If Grey wanted to die, then he would let him be.
He decided to wait for some time, once Grey tries to come out, he would capture him.
Grey on the other hand was speeding through the miasma. He wasn't even affected by it, rather, he could feel some sort of resonation and the miasma in his body started to churn.
Void was currently hidden in his storage ring since he couldn't risk staying in the miasma.
On the way, he saw some beasts that had adapted to the miasma and lived there peacefully.
After a few turns, he found a cave and hid there.
'Damn it! This stupid mark, I need to get rid of it as soon as possible.' He complained as he sat down cross-legged.
He closed his eyes and meditated. Two hours later he calmed down.
'He's gone.'
He couldn't sense any sign of the man, so he felt a little settled. From what he guessed, he felt the man thought he was dead, so he left the place.
'Time to search for this herb. It shouldn't be hard.' He thought as he walked out of the cave.
According to the books he read, the herb Grey in places with high concentration of miasma. As long as he followed the energy of the miasma, then he would get it quickly.
When he started exploring the place, he saw corspes of people who had died while venturing into the place. Not just that, but even that of beasts as well.
"This place isn't simple." He muttered.
One hour later.
He was standing in front of a cliff side, and beside the cliff was a floating flower. It was none other than the floating clover.
"So easy?" He was a little taken aback since he felt it should've been a little harder than this.
He was about to collect it when he heard a rustling sound. The sound was followed by a roar. A large boar charged at him. The boar was radiating black energy from its body.
'This must be the work of the miasma. To think magical beasts were able to adapt to this.' He thought as he dodged the charge of the boar.
After dodging the charge, he released a powerful flame attack that sent the boar flying.
With three more moves, he was able to kill the boar.
"Strange, it's weaker than a magical beast outside." Grey said as he acquired the floating clover.
He couldn't leave now since it was still too early. The risk of encountering the necromancer was too high.
Staying here for a day or two will be enough to ward off any attempt of the man to wait. By then, once he leaves, he could safely return to the Faction and hide for some time.
This was one of the things he hated the most, yet he was forced to do it once again.
'Just you wait, once Void gets to the Sage Plane, he will kill you all.' Grey thought to himself.
With that he went back to the cave to hide. He decided to cultivate with the time he was in the cave. When cultivating, time moves by quickly.
Before he knew it, three days went by in a flash.
"He should be long gone by now." Grey said as he started to venture out of the miasma.
When he got to the peripheral of the miasma, he waited to see if he could sense anything. After not sensing anything, he crushed another talisman and rushed in the direction of the Faction.
All he wanted right now was to get to a city and use the teleportation array. He couldn't make any teleportation arrays since he was still too weak.
But he was sure that once he gets to the Sage Plane, he should be able to do it. At that time, he would make arrays wherever he goes to make his return journey easier.
Thousands of meters away from the poison miasma.
In a hidden cave.
The necromancer was seated, tending to his injuries. By his side was the corpse of an old man.
He was still recovering when his eyes snapped open.
"Impossible."
