1126 Jar Of Dirt?

Grey stood stunned, the trio stared at him, dumbstruck. Alice couldn’t believe her eyes as well.
“How is he so strong?” She muttered, shocked.
One of the shocking things about Grey’s attack was that they sensed very little impact from it. It was contained, of course, not at the level of the young man from where Grey took the armor, but at least, it was far better than these people at the Elemental Venerable Plane.
If the young man had seen Grey use the attack so efficiently, he would be dumbfounded. One has to know that this was something that took years to get the hang of. Getting the hang of it is not as hard as actually implementing it in an attack.
The reason it looked this good was mainly because Grey used his physical strength. If he had used his elemental attack, he wouldn’t have gotten this result. It would’ve been far from it.
Their shock didn’t stay for too long.
“Thank you for your help.” The injured young man thanked Grey.
Grey nodded, “I couldn’t really watch you die.”
“Should we continue together?” The young man in the Third stage asked.
Grey readily agreed, “He’ll have to heal first.”
They waited for the young man to recover from his injuries before they continued on the journey.
With Grey joining them, the battles became shorter. Grey originally had explosive attack power, with the help of the new technique, he was able to explode with greater force. At this rate, his attack power was already on the same level as those in the Sixth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane. Of course, this was mainly due to how high his physique had improved.
….
A few hours later, they arrived at the last mountain in the place.
It was just as they expected, the route out of this place was on the last mountain.
Grey looked at the building sitting on the mountaintop. The building was majestic, exuding an ancient aura.
The other trio wanted to head in, but they were a bit hesitant as they shot a glance at Grey. He was the strongest, so he naturally made the decisions.
“You can go, I’m not going in now.” Grey had no problems with them going in.
To his surprise, they didn’t rush in as expected. He raised a brow to look at them, and their next words made him chuckle.
“We feel safer if you go in as well.”
Void appeared on Grey’s shoulder, and stared at the building for a long time before disappearing once again.
According to Void, whatever was inside was not really good. Other than shiny things, the requirements of an item to catch Void’s attention was very high, if the treasure was not top-notch, he wouldn’t care about it.
Grey thought about it and still decided to enter. Not everyone is like Void. To people like himself and his friends, some things Void felt were useless might be very helpful.
When the trio saw Grey heading into the building, they felt reassured and entered as well. They couldn’t be blamed, if not for Grey, the possibility of them dying in this place was very high.
At first, they thought they would only get benefits from this place after passing the first stage successfully without any harm. This stage made them a bit fearful, especially the one injured during the battle Grey helped them with.
The group of five entered the building. In a large hall, items placed on multiple tables, from weapons to beast cores, and also healing tonics, all sorts of things. Each item was protected by an array.
Grey studied the array for some time and knew it was something he could deal with. The others shouldn’t have any problems with taking an item as well.
The items at the front didn’t seem to hold as much value as the ones behind.
Alice stared at a particular item around the center of the building. She walked in that direction.
Grey stared at what she was looking at, it was a fiery orb. He could tell it had something to do with the fire element. Alice had awakened her fire element, making it slightly superior to her lightning element.
Grey, on the other hand, didn’t find anything that caught his eye. There were quite a few good things there, some he had no idea what they were, while others were things he had more or less seen or heard of.
While everyone had started to open an array to get an item, Grey was studying the items on each table.
The trio placed their focus on the last tables since they seemed to hold more value.
Seeing Grey walking over, one of them had a worried expression, his worry died down when Grey walked past as if he didn’t see anything. The young man was trying to get a shield.
Grey couldn’t be bothered with such an item, he already had top-tier armor that looked great.
He avoided the items that entered the eyes of the trio and only glanced at the rest. When he got to the last table, he knew the array was not something he could break through even if he was given a few days. On the side of the last table, he saw a small black jar with its contents hidden at the side, opening, and his eyes twitched.
“A jar of dirt?”
He was a bit skeptical. This jar was the only thing that wasn’t protected by an array. Technically, even if thousands of people entered this place, none would have any interest in taking this item.
Only a few would take it. The reason; it was in this place.
Grey tossed the jar in his storage ring before continuing his tour of the place. It was just as Void said, there wasn’t really anything here he felt was good. Of course, he felt like this didn’t mean he was not going to try to take some items away.
There were no defensive arrays, after breaking through the arrays, the people present could take the items they wanted.
Alice had successfully taken the fiery orb, keeping it safe. Two of the trio had also taken the items they had their eyes on.
