Chapter 1232 What Are You?

"Kid, do you think I'm afraid of you?" The man asked coldly.
Bang!
He dropped the coffin from his shoulder as he stared at Grey.
He was already in the Ninth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane. The only reason he offered to give Grey something was so that he wouldn't be kept here while fighting with Grey. If Grey thought he was afraid of him, then he was dreaming.
"You should be. I'm not like anyone you've ever encountered." Grey chuckled.
"I know, but you're still no match for me." The man replied and his expression turned serious.
He knew Grey was not like others his stage or age, he was very strong and also seemed to make the right decisions in most cases, except this one.
Grey took another glance at the coffin, "Are you sure this is worth your life?"
"You want to kill me?" The man asked with a playful smile.
"Oh, you don't want to kill me?" Grey realized the error in his words.
"Oh, I do, I really do want to kill you. Especially if those things catch up to me." The man replied.
Grey heaved a sigh of relief, "Why didn't you say so initially? I was worried I was the only one taking things too seriously."
The man looked at Grey but didn't reply, rather, he took a step forward and his aura changed. The pressure he released was stronger than it previously was and Grey knew that he had improved his strength.
The man didn't want to waste any time and quickly entered his strongest state. He unleashed a powerful lightning bolt at Grey.
Grey immediately used his domain and was able to easily block the attack. He used the icy fire domain, and before the lightning bolt got to him, it froze.
The man looked at him and snorted, he attacked once again. This time his target was Cori who was standing behind Grey.
Grey, seeing this was a little infuriated and quickly stood in front of Cori, blocking the attack.
Due to not being well prepared to take the attack, he was forced back by the impact of the attack and his hands felt numb. Even though he used the ice element to create an ice wall, he was still strongly impacted by the attack.
He looked at the man and his eyes turned cold. If he only wanted to kill the man due to his mission before, now, he really wanted to kill him.
After blocking the attack, he didn't give the man the chance to unleash the next attack, he vanished and appeared close to him, but just as he was about to attack, he was sent flying by the attack of the man.
The man managed to sense where he would appear and attack before he even appeared.
Everything happened within a second, and the man reacted very fast, sending him flying.
Before Grey hit the ground, the man attacked once again.
Although Grey was in mid-air, he flipped and got his balance, staying in the air for a while.
When he saw the attack coming his way, he acted quickly, dodging it.
The attack hit the walls, but there was no visible damage to it.
He attacked with a fire arrow, but the man was able to block it. The man attacked once again. As Grey tried to block it, he was pushed back.
Even with Grey's powerful attack, his attack power still can't be measured with a powerful Ninth stage Elemental Venerable. The man was quite powerful even in the Ninth stage.
Grey tried taking the attack but he was pushed back.
His pupils dilated when he saw the man attacking Cori once again. 𝚗𝒐𝑣𝞮𝗅𝐮𝐒𝚋.𝗰𝗈𝑚
Since he still didn't have any plans for others to know the abilities of Void, especially the son of the Dawson Family Head, he was forced to block the attack again. After blocking it, he waved his hand and Cori was sent further behind him.
He didn't say anything about the man trying to attack Cori, it might be an underhanded tactic, but all is fair in love and war.
He made two inscriptions that packed a powerful attack and unleashed them at the man.
While doing that, he also created a fusion orb that he sent to the man.
This was the first attack that made the man worry.
Being distracted by the inscriptions, he didn't sense the attack early. When he sensed the attack, without a second thought, he retreated as fast as he could.
Grey took the opportunity and decided to use his physical strength. His figure suddenly faded. Unlike when using the space element to teleport, his figure didn't vanish instantly, rather, it showed signs of fading, an afterimage.
He appeared in front of the man while the image of his figure still standing in his previous spot was still there. Without holding back, he punched out.
The man crossed his hands in front of him and tried to block the attack. However, he felt a scrutinizing pain that made him scream uncontrollably.
The bones in his hands weren't the only things that broke, but some of his ribs broke as well. His chest caved in slightly and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
One has to know that Grey's physical strength was above his cultivation stage.
The man didn't know this so when he tried to defend Grey's punch, even when using a bit of his essence to enforce his hands, he still wasn't strong enough to block the attack. Of course, it didn't mean that it didn't help. If not for that, his chest might've been blown away by Grey's punch.
"What are you?" He asked while catching his breath. He was in severe pain, but he couldn't help but ask this question.
This wasn't his first time fighting against a foreigner, but he had never had such an encounter with them. Grey's physical strength was on par with beasts which was a shocking discovery for him.
"I'm Grey, Grey Dawson." Grey replied with a smile and disappeared.
