Chapter 1176 Catching Up
Jonas stayed in the Azure Continent and grew to the Sage Plane years after Grey and his friends left. He searched for them after getting to the Sage Plane, but he was unsuccessful.
He became the youngest Elementalist to get to the Sage Plane in the history of the Azure Continent. For some reason, he knew Grey would"ve already achieved that feat, but since he was nowhere to be seen, he couldn"t help but accept the t.i.tle.
During an exploration, he got sucked into a spatial tear, and then appeared in a strange new world. The elemental essence he sensed there was way above what he ever thought he would experience again. He only experienced such vast elemental essence in the Trial Land, but now, he was sensing it in an outside world.
He didn"t venture far before seeing people. Where he appeared was close to a small town. The strongest person in the town was at the Peak of the Overlord Plane. He asked where he was and found out it was a strange place called the Aurora Continent, he asked about it and only got some information. But that was enough for him, all he wanted to do was to grow stronger, and in the Azure Continent, he as already feeling that he was getting to the end of his cultivation journey after getting to the Second stage of the Sage Plane.
It couldn"t be helped, the lack of elemental essence there can"t groom an Elementalist to grow to the Peak of the Sage Plane. So once an Elementalist gets to the Sage Plane, their cultivation speed reduces tremendously and they start to feel like they can no longer break through.
Jonas was already starting to get that feeling, hence he started exploring the world. He couldn"t hide the joy in his face when he entered the Aurora Continent, he still didn"t know how he got there and how the spatial tunnel came about, but he didn"t care, the main thing was getting to the Aurora Continent and growing further. During his first month there, he was able to get to the Third stage of the Sage Plane and felt his potential had been vastly unlocked.
He joined a Faction that saw his potential and they groomed him further, making his cultivation speed skyrocket. Only when he got to the Late stages of the Sage Plane did he slow down.
After getting to the Elemental Venerable Plane, the Faction Leader, who was spending a lot of resources on him, decided to send him here once he gets to the Third stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane.
Grey listened to his story without imputing anything. There was nothing he had to say anyway.
"How long have you been here?" He asked after Jonas finished speaking.
"In two months it will be a year. I will be leaving soon." Jonas replied.
Grey nodded, he had been here for a few months, but Jonas got here before he did.
"What about you, how did you end up here?" Jonas asked.
"Remember the time you saw me in the Magical Beasts" Forest?" Grey recalled meeting Jonas when he was injured in the Magical Beasts" Forest.
Jonas nodded.
"I was able to see a teleportation array that sent me to the Aurora Continent around that time. The time I left for a while and returned to fight against the Empires, I had made a trip there first before returning to take my friends back." Grey didn"t say too much, but Jonas understood the meaning of his words.
Grey found a way to go to a better place and wanted to take his friends with him. However there was some issues so he sorted it out first.
Jonas looked at Grey, he couldn"t help but give a wry smile. When Grey was declared a fugitive across all Continent, he could barely believe that the same person that came from the same City as himself was garnering this much attention from everyone. Not just that, but this person was seen as a threat by all Four Empires at that time and they wanted him gone.
If it were now, a single snap of Grey"s finger would kill all of them. He was an Elemental Venerable, a level those in the Azure Continent knew nothing about. He might even be regarded as a G.o.d if he went back now.
"Wait, you"re Grey Dawson?" He suddenly recalled something and asked hurriedly.
"Yes." Grey nodded.
Jonas burst out laughing after getting the confirmation from Grey. Even now, Grey was still wanted by factions stronger than him, yet, he was still thriving.
"Will this end in the same manner?" He thought to himself.
"You know about the kill order on your head from the Gnomes?" He asked curiously.
Grey nodded.
"You have a way of making powerful enemies." Jonas gave a soft chuckle.
"They wanted to kill me, I killed them, now they"re just acting in the manner people with a weak mindset act, using their connections." Grey shrugged.
Seeing how carefree Grey was, Jonas shook his head to himself.
"I guess you"re already used to being in such a situation." He muttered softly.
If he was the one in that situation, he wouldn"t be as carefree as Grey was at the moment. Grey didn"t even seem to have any issues with speaking about it. It was like it was something normal.
"What are you hoping to get?" Jonas asked.
"There"s a flower I want, and I can get it here." Grey said.
"Something to heal the consciousness." Jonas blurted out.
Grey was a bit taken aback, but then he realized Jonas had been here for a while and there"s just one flower there, and it"s used to heal a damaged consciousness.
"Yeah, I have a friend who"s in need of it." Grey answered.
Jonas nodded.
"There"s a quicker way to get more wins. It"s a bit rare, but at times people do agree to it." Jonas said after some time.
"Oh, what"s that?" Grey"s interest was piqued.
"Betting." Jonas replied.
