Chapter 1343 Making Trades

Outside the realm.
Grey and the others appeared on the mountaintop. They had been inside not more than a few hours, but it had been quite eventful.
Grey looked around and nodded softly to the others.
"I'll be leaving now."
With that, he didn't even wait for their reply before disappearing.
Elaris stamped her feet lightly on the ground when she saw this. She wanted to ask him if he was willing to help her out with the mark now after they'd gone through this experience together. But from how Grey ran, it was like he was avoiding them like a plague.
"We should leave as well. Since he's not here, the Giants might want to know what we acquired there." She said.
Brax and Victor nodded. Sylvia's brother looked at the place Grey was previously standing on before shaking his head lightly. He left with the group.
Grey clearly had no plans to hang with them, and there was no need to force him to stay.
….
At the Giant's castle.
Klaus, Reynolds, and Alice were camping outside the place.
Just like Elaris, they found out about the Giants inviting Grey over. Knowing Grey so well, they knew he would check out the place. So they came to see if anything happened to him.
After arriving here, they discovered Grey and the Giants' leader were gone. They weren't in on where they went, so they decided to wait for Grey since they couldn't communicate with him.
"He should be fine. I heard some humans came here, they might have come to help him out." Alice suggested.
She needed to grow, and although she was worried about Grey's well-being, she knew that Grey was the safest person in this place. With all the trump cards he had, there was no way he could be killed. At most, he would be injured, but he would be able to escape from whatever situation he was placed in.
As long as there were no Sovereigns present here, Grey was literally unkillable unless he wanted to die.
"Let's wait till the end of tomorrow, if he doesn't come, we'll continue with our treasure hunting." Klaus said while looking at the castle with shining eyes.
There was something inside he could sense. He wanted it!
'If only Void were here, he would've been able to take it for me.' He thought internally.
This was the reason he hadn't left this place. His gut feeling was telling him whatever he sensed was very beneficial to him, and he didn't want to leave until he got it. If not for the fact that he wasn't as fast as Grey, he would've charged in and taken it alone.
….
On another side of the secret realm.
Grey was standing in front of a giant Tortoise, a small dark red bead in his hand.
"This is my blood essence. I've sealed its aura so as not to attract others. I believe you've prepared yours." Grey said while holding onto the bead.
The large eyes of the Tortoise looked at the small dark red bead on Grey's hand, its eyes glowing in delight.
With this, it would be able to advance and become stronger than all the other Kings in the area. With its new strength, it can enjoy a better life.
The Tortoise opened its mouth, and a large head-sized black bead appeared. Compared to Grey's own, it looked more potent. But the Tortoise didn't care; it was a purebred Magical Beast, and Grey became this way thanks to having ingested multiple Magical Beasts' blood essence, which changed his bloodline.
The Tortoise's blood essence was more potent, but Grey's blood essence had a far greater potential. Even the Tortoise was aware of this, hence its lack of complaint even though the blood essence Grey gave it wasn't much.
Grey took the blood essence of the Tortoise. After studying it and confirming it was authentic from Void, he nodded and left.
The Tortoise had zero issues with Grey leaving as soon as they finished the trade. All they needed to do was to trade blood essence, and that had been done.
Grey returned to the mountain range. Void told him of a Magical Beast with a good bloodline they could benefit from. Well, primarily, Void could benefit from it, but it was a Lightning Magical Beast and might be helpful to Grey. If Grey could absorb some of its blood essence and integrate it with his own, he might be able to awaken a new innate ability.
Void needed it to improve his bloodline, while Grey needed it to gain a new innate skill.
They soon located the Beast, and it was a cat type Magical Beast.
When the cat saw Grey and Void, it wanted to lash out at them, but Grey's dragon scales appeared and his superior bloodline started to show its use. Void also used his superior bloodline as well. With the duo using their bloodlines to suppress the Beast, it wasn't able to move.
"We need some blood essence, in return, we'll give you something you want."
The Beast wanted to refuse, after all, it wasn't only about bloodline, if the duo weren't strong enough, it might be able to kill them and consume them.
Void unleashed his Peak Rank Seven aura, and so did Grey. To a certain extent, he was almost more Magical Beast than human given the current state he was in. Of course, he was still human, but he only had a few abilities of Magical Beasts.
The Beast cowered when it sensed this. There was no way it could compete with the duo standing in front of it. With no other option, it gave them two blood essence. This took a lot of energy from it, but it was better than dying under their hands.
Grey laughed and a white light covered the Beast, he used his light element to heal it. Before giving it a small bit of blood essence. It was one-fourth of what he gave to the Tortoise.
