Chapter 948 Overwhelmed By An Old Man

"Do I look like someone who tells jokes?" Grey asked with a serious expression.

Even if this old man was in the Peak of the Sage Plane, Grey didn't feel he would lose out against him, at most, it'll be a tie. He knew not to underestimate this old man since the old man must've been at the Peak of the Sage Plane for years now and his strength would not be the same as those at the Peak of the Sage Plane. But he didn't worry too much about the man.

"Kid, I'll give you this chance, walk away now, and let you leave peacefully." The old man said slowly, standing up from his sitting position.

It was evident that he was no longer playing around.

"I can't do that. I need the fruit." Grey replied, staring into the eyes of the old man, after waiting for some time, he added, "However, if you have anything that might help his damaged consciousness, then I wouldn't mind trading for it. If not, I'll have no choice but to take the fruit."

As much as he was confident in his abilities, it wasn't good for him to create enemies for himself wherever he went. He had always tried to avoid scenarios like these, but most of the time, those around him bring trouble to him.

The old man squinted his eyes, putting on a thoughtful expression, he replied some moments later, "I don't have any. Injuries to the consciousness are one of the most complicated injuries, it's extremely difficult to deal with. If one tries to do it himself, they might cause more harm than good."

Listening to the old man's explanation, Grey nodded his head. He also knew of this, hence he wanted the fruit so bad. That was the only thing he could think of that might be able to help Arya's brother. To be honest, he wasn't a hundred percent sure it would be able to help. He came to the conclusion of using the fruit since the tree had the ability of mental attacks.

Grey could only shake his head, "Then I have no choice. You have to hand over the fruit."

He didn't want to speak of the evil doings of the man of sucking out the essence of those who came in here. He didn't really care too much about it, there were just too many cases like this. He couldn't help everyone. Even if he were to save most of the people here, some of them would still die for other treasures. It was best to leave them to their fate.

"Kid, I'll tell you again, leave, and I'll not cause you any trouble." The old man's expression was no longer friendly, and his aura changed completely.

Grey stood facing him, not taking an inch. His intention was clear, he was not leaving until he got what he wanted.

The old man chuckled all of a sudden. Before Grey knew what was happening, the man disappeared.

Grey's pupils contracted and he hastily set up a defensive wall around himself. Even with his strength, he couldn't see the man which showed that the speed the old man was moving at was much faster than his speed.

Boom!

The defensive wall broke apart and Grey's figure was sent flying.

Grey did flip mid-air and landed on his foot, sliding almost three meters before slamming his back on the side of the cave.

"You want to take my fruit, and you're this weak? Please, don't amuse me." The old man was slightly disappointed when he sent Grey flying with a single attack.

He didn't sense Grey's cultivation stage at first since Grey hid it, so he felt at least Grey might be a genius who had already broken through to the Late stages of the Sage Plane at such a young age. Only after he attacked did he find out Grey's true strength.

"I will get the fruit." Grey replied calmly.

He dusts himself before disappearing from view.

"Oh, a Space Elementalist. How bothersome. Fortunately, that is not a problem for me." The old man said when he saw Grey vanish.

He punched into the air, and ripples appeared in the air. Before long, a figure shot out of thin air.

Bang!

The figure crashed into the side of the cave with tremendous force. It was none other than Grey who was forced out of the spatial tunnel he was using.

Grey stood up to look at the man with stunned eyes. He couldn't believe the man sent him out of the void with nothing more than a punch.

'He's not as simple as I thought.'

Even after thinking highly of the old man, Grey suddenly realized he still thought too low of this old man.

Without saying anything, his aura shot up and he went to the Peak of the Sage Plane in an instant.

The old man sensing the sudden increase in Grey's aura couldn't help but shake his head.

"These tricks only work on those weaklings. Against a true expert at the Peak, you're nothing."

Grey moved, but the man moved at the same time as well.

Grey used the space element, while the man exploded out with a speed that would put Grey's supreme speed to shame.

Bang!

The old man forcibly stopped Grey from entering the spatial tunnel which would've taken Grey away in an instant.

Grey was once again shocked, he was forced to block the attack, making sure he didn't get hit by the man. If a single punch can send him out of the spatial tunnel, there was no need to speak of what it would do to him if it hit him unprotected.

Grey crossed his arms in front of him and used the earth element to create an armor around his hands.

When the old man's fist connected with Grey's hand, Grey was sent flying back, slamming into the wall behind him and falling down, but he made sure to stand on his feet.

He was dumbstruck!

This was the first time he was being overpowered in a physical battle.
