Grey could sense the strength that was flowing through his body. At this rate, he was a hundred percent certain that a single punch from him could make a Second stage Sovereign Plane Elementalist explode from impact.

He was getting stronger, but so was the lightning. However, he didn't show any signs of worry as he faced the lightning that was coming his way, rather, he was excited. The more he was struck by the lightning, the stronger he got. If this continued, he would be able to fight with a Mid stage Sovereign while he was still in the First stage.

He was planning to sneak into the Gnome world. As long as he could get stronger before he entered that place, he didn't mind if he had to suffer a little. With the increase of his strength, he could withstand the attacks. They hurt a little, but it wasn't something he couldn't bear.

His body was strengthened by all elements as he broke through to the Sovereign Plane. This was the greatest boost he has received since he started cultivating. Other than the Fusion stage which suddenly disappeared, his greatest benefit at the moment was the fact that his physical strength could withstand the attacks of someone close to the Mid stages of the Sovereign Plane as he gets to the First stage of the Sovereign Plane.

All the essence his father prepared for him was soon finished and he had to rely on the essence he was getting from the array he created. He could feel the veil was on the verge of breaking, it only needed a little more push and it would break. Once it breaks, he would become a Sovereign, one of the top experts in the Aurora Continent at such a young age.

The cracks on his body were still there, but he had returned to his normal size, and he could feel the significant increase in his strength.

The next lightning bolt struck him, and blood dripped down the side of his mouth. This attack was strong, and since he wasn't taking in so much energy now due to the finished items brought by his father, he couldn't match up with the increase in the strength of the attack, but he still took it.

With a serious expression, he brought out all the items he had with him that could increase the essence he was taking in at the moment. He knew all he needed was a little bit more and he would become a Sovereign.

The next lightning bolt struck, and Grey roared, but instead of from pain, his energy spiked and it passed the stage of a Pseudo-sovereign, finally getting into the Sovereign Plane.

The energy his body contained at the moment was so much that even he found it hard to take in everything. The items he brought out were not as much as the ones his father gave him, but they were still too much for him.

Another lightning bolt was preparing, he could sense that it was the last one. And with no other choice, he knew he had to dispel the excess energy in his body which caused the cracks.

He flew into the sky, waiting for the attack from the thundercloud.

The lightning struck, but Grey pushed all the energy in his body into making the lightning bolt weaker. The first time, he used his normal elemental attack, so there was no change in the lightning attack. This time, he was using pure essence to attack the lightning which was also made of pure essence as well.

The two collided and for the first time, Grey saw a change in the lightning bolt coming his way. The lightning wasn't as strong as the previous ones.

When it hit his body, he felt as if he was having a warm bath. He was refreshed compared to the previous pains he felt from it.

'So refreshing.' This was the only thought in his head.

The lightning bolt didn't make his muscles jolt anymore, rather, it made them feel relaxed.

Grey himself calmed down.

….

On the outside world.

At the time Grey absorbed more energy, the cracks on the body of the apparition increased, as if it was about to break apart. But after a few more seconds, it started to heal up.

The cracks healed very quickly and the apparition was even more magnificent as the cracks started to disappear from its body. It was as if it was a new being. freewebno(v)el.com

The pressure the apparition released spiked for a moment and most people below the Late stages of the Venerable Plane found it hard to even take a breath. It was only for a moment, but they all felt the pressure, even those people secluded.

This time, all the Half-God Elementalists in the Aurora Continent were alerted by it. It lasted only for a second, but it was enough to tell them something serious was happening.

The apparition soon started to show signs of fading. During the final moments, it looked towards a certain direction, as if attracted by something.

The direction it was looking at was the part of the Aurora Continent that was cut off and had become the Azure Continent where Grey and his friends were born.

After that short look, it faded off completely.

….

On Grey's end. His body had healed up and he could sense the immense energy his body contained. If he used an explosive attack at the moment, he would be able to shatter a Fourth stage Sovereign, and even a Fifth stage Sovereign might not be safe. However, he knew it wasn't something that was permanent. He could only use it for at most three to five attacks.

Only after using it can he know how many times he can use the explosive energy in his body.

'Another valuable trump card.' He thought internally.

With this, he would be able to attack Mid stage Sovereigns by surprise. None of them would expect him to use such a powerful attack, so they wouldn't be prepared for it.
