'How many people would survive such a condition?'

Grey thought to himself as he walked into the building.

Not everyone had the determination to hang on, it was evident from the bones he passed through. Some might have had the will, but they didn't have the strength to continue.

Grey was able to quickly figure out a way to solve the issue. A few people might think they would be able to brave through it, only after getting to a position where it was irreconcilable would they know it was a bad decision.

The building looked ordinary, other than the futon placed in the middle, there was nothing else.

Grey took in everything in the building and realized the force he felt sucking his life force had vanished. He heaved a sigh of relief and tried to recover. Seeing his condition, he could only give a wry smile.

It would definitely take him a few hours before he could go back to how he previously looked.

"Hopefully Klaus and the others don't enter this place, if not, it would be dangerous." He muttered and walked over to seat on the futon.

Some words appeared in the air when he took his seat.

"Strength your weaknesses and you will be invincible"

Grey thought about the words for a while before it clicked. It wasn't that this place naturally targeted life force, it targeted his life force because his light element was his weakest element.

"Such a strange place. What would happen to the likes of Void then?" He felt a bit curious.

Void doesn't seem to have any weaknesses, all his elements were on the same grade, and his physical body was also very powerful. It could be said that Void was the perfect Elementalist, well, Magical Beast.

This place wouldn't be able to be a danger to Void since he didn't seem to have weaknesses in his cultivation. There might be a few things Grey didn't know about, so he wasn't too optimistic about Void not really having any weaknesses.

He sat down on the futon and decided to focus on his light element. Since this place wanted him to work on his weaknesses, then he would try to see if he could increase the elemental grade of his light element.

Besides, he learned a light elemental attack, without sufficient control over his light element, he wouldn't be able to use the technique.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye and it was the next day.

Grey opened his eyes and looked around, a bit stunned.

This place was too magical. His light elemental grade had increased, and not by a small margin. It was previously in the blue grade, but now, it had shot to the Red grade, skipping the Violet grade.

The thought of staying here a few days crept past Grey's mind, but he gave up on the thought. He knew their time there was limited, so he had to make sure he left as soon as possible.

Advancing two grades was a big boost to his light element, although it was still the lowest, it was better than its previous state.

By the time he stopped cultivating, he could already sense the power of teleportation around him and knew that he had passed the requirements to head to the next round. His only concern now was Void and the bunny leader. He didn't want to advance without them, but he knew there was nothing he could do about it.

'Since we've passed through so many stages together, the likelihood of us appearing on the same stage is quite high. As long as they don't wander around, I should be able to find them.'

His thought process was not groundless. They've gone through each of the last six stages together, including this stage making it seven. He didn't think there would be more than ten stages. Given the fact that they had gone through seven stages, the possibility of them showing up in the same stage was quite high.

He didn't waste any more time and teleported out of the place.

.

At another location.

Klaus could be seen in a wretched state, his clothes were destroyed as he rushed through the area.

Behind him, a group of three could be seen chasing after him. He had surprisingly gotten to the Second stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, but each of the people chasing after him had a higher cultivation stage.

These people were from the Syphilis Faction.

They recognized Klaus was traveling with Grey and since he couldn't provide Grey, they wanted to kill him.

"F*ck! Why don't you guys come one at a time?" He spat on the ground, incensed.

"Geniuses my foot. You're all lucky Grey isn't here, if not, I'd have killed you all." He shouted at the trio while running.

They hadn't been able to kill him, even with their number and cultivation stage advantages, they were still stopped by Klaus' shocking defensive powers.

Klaus had the ability to defend against an attack from a Fifth stage Elemental Venerable at this point, but that was all under the premise he was under attack from a single person. He was being attacked by three people, although none of them had gotten to the Fifth stage, two were in the Fourth stage and the last one was in the Third stage.

"Don't run, we won't harm you." One of the trio said with a playful smile.

"Really?" Klaus asked, a bit surprised.

"Yes, just stop right there." The young lady said.

"Alright, to be sure you guys are going to stop too, I'll count one to three and we'll stop at three." Klaus said with a relieved expression.

The trio looked at each other and smiled, they felt Klaus believed them.

"We'll stop and then attack him once we get close."

They whispered to each other.

"One, two, three." Klaus counted and to his surprise, they stopped.

Klaus didn't know if they were dumb or thought he was foolish, he didn't care and continued running. He wasn't going to foolishly stop and give them the opportunity to catch him.
