Chapter 904 Klaus vs Gregory

Chapter 904 Klaus vs Gregory
Gregory locked his eyes on Klaus, staring at him coldly.
Klaus stared at him, he felt a little pressured since the distance in strength was by no means small. Fighting above stages in the Sage Plane was not the same as when he was in the Overlord Plane.
With the increase in Plane, it became harder for geniuses to transcend stages when fighting. When in the Origin Plane, he could easily transcend three stages, especially against an individual with a lower elemental grade, but as he got to the Overlord Plane, things started to become harder. The Sage Plane was even harder than the Overlord Plane.
'Should I have allowed Grey to fight this battle?'
Doubt flashed through his head. To be honest, he was more confident in Grey's abilities compared to his own. He couldn't be blamed, Grey had proved times without number that he had no problems transcending stages, and from how freakish Grey was, he knew for a fact that Grey had complete confidence in defeating Gregory.
He hastily threw the doubt out of his head. This was his battle, he was going to fight it, win or lose, he would deal with the consequences.
Grey respected Klaus' decision and watched from the side.
Everyone from the side waited patiently for the battle to start.
After both fighters told the Elder they were ready, he called for the start of the battle.
Klaus released water arrows the moment the battle started.
Gregory was a Dual Elementalist, having the earth and lightning element.
An earth wall appeared in front of him to block the attack, after blocking, he sent a lightning bolt at Klaus.
Klaus used his ice ability to create an ice screen that blocked the attack. He retaliated with his water element, not waiting for Gregory to take the upper hand.
Gregory had a higher explosive power thanks to the lightning element.
They quickly exchanged moves with no one getting the advantage. It was still early on, but Grey noticed Klaus had improved compared to the way he last saw him.
Gregory looked at Klaus, a little surprised. He didn't think Klaus would be able to put up with him.
Not just him, everyone from the crowd was surprised. Klaus was three stages below Gregory, yet he was going toe to toe with him, it was quite something to watch, and it already showed who was more talented.
"You're impressive, but if this is what you're depending on, then I'm sorry, you will lose." Gregory said.
Klaus had always been one to talk whenever fighting, but this time, he remained silent, he placed his full focus on the battle ahead of him, this was a battle he couldn't afford to take lightly.
Gregory shrouded himself with lightning as he bolted towards Klaus.
Klaus raised a water wall in front of him. It didn't stop Gregory, as expected, but he didn't do it to stop him in the first place.
As Gregory got close to him, he blew out an icy wind from his mouth.
Gregory, who was covered with droplets of water when he breezed through the water wall felt his body get heavier, and before he knew it, he started to freeze.
The lightning coat around him started to fall off. Klaus sent ice spikes at him during this period.
Gregory hurriedly protected himself with an earth dome as he hastily broke free from the ice. It took some time, but he managed to break free from it.
Klaus broke apart the earth dome, but just as it was falling apart, a lightning bolt shot at him.
Ice armor covered his body from head to toe when he saw this.
Bang!
The lightning bolt struck him in the chest, sending him flying. However, he wasn't injured since the ice armor took most of the attack. It didn't even crack, only showing a black spot from the burn from the lightning strike.
It quickly faded off after the ice recovered.
He used the special ice ability of the Seelie to create the ice armor, but he only used the recovery part of it. After getting to the Sage Plane, his knowledge and control over his ice ability increased. In the entire Moonlight Faction, he was one of the best ice users, he had mastered most of the difficult techniques, even some that Elemental Venerables find hard to master.
As long as it had to do with ice, he had it under his grasp.
One of the reasons the Elder agreed to come with him was because of how highly talented Klaus was. They had been trying to get him to learn a technique, but he had been running from it.
The condition for following him here was that he would have to learn this technique. When Klaus accepted, they were elated and this Elder followed him without many squabbles.
Klaus tapped his right foot on the platform and it started to freeze.
Gregory, seeing this, raised multiple earth pillars on the platform. A large earth orb glowing with a brownish light appeared in the air and fell to the platform.
Klaus created a large hand made from water, when the glowing orb entered the water, it continued descending, but a few meters before touching the platform, it stopped.
Gregory struck the water with a lightning bolt, hitting the orb in the process.
The orb exploded out, and earth spikes sprouted from the ground while the air around the platform started to get heavier.
Klaus noticed this and knitted his brow. Fighting in such a condition was no good for him, once the battle got too long, his physical body would be exhausted from the increased weight it had to sustain.
Grey watching from the side was amazed that Gregory could use the gravitational force field, although it wasn't as powerful as his own, it would become more effective as time went on.
Grey's own on the other hand had an instant impact and could easily turn the tides of a battle. This one, on the other hand, will only work against people without strong physical bodies. Most Elementalists had weak physiques, so it was quite useful.
