Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1340 Battling The Skeleton

Chapter 1340 Battling The Skeleton

The Skeleton watched them as they gathered, not fazed with the increasing strength of the group.

"Ready?" It asked with a playful voice.

Grey's expression was serious when he sensed the strength of the Skeleton. Now he understood why Void was avoiding a battle with it. Its strength was obviously above the Elemental Venerable Plane. Although its cultivation stage was at the very Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane, the aura it was giving off was way higher than that.

"It's strong, our best bet is to retreat while fighting." Grey whispered to the others, who nodded in agreement.

They could all feel the pressure the Skeleton was putting on them, and from how carefree the Skeleton was, it wasn't even trying to show off. This meant once it was serious, its aura would be higher than what it is at the moment.

Grey took the lead, his blue flames shooting towards the Skeleton.

The Skeleton opened its palm and its white bones expanded, it soon covered the flames coming its way, extinguis.h.i.+ng it with a simple wave.

The wave of its hand didn't only extinguish Grey's flames, but sent a powerful gust at him, forcing him to retreat.

The others who were behind him also moved back due to the power behind the gust.

"Is that all you have? If it is, you should give up now and not waste my time." The Skeleton looked at the group who just regained their balance from its previous attack.

Grey didn't worry about what the Skeleton was saying, he made sure Void was still hidden, hoping to use him at a critical moment.

The Skeleton might be aware of Void's presence, but without Void appearing, there was nothing it could do. If the battle got to an intense state, then there was a good chance it might forget about Void. If this were to happen, then Void would be able to play a crucial role in the battle.

Elaris took a step forward, and an ice spear appeared. The cold radiating from the ice was so intense that even those standing close to her couldn't help but s.h.i.+ver.

Grey was the only one unmoved, he opened his eyes and looked straight into the eyes of the Skeleton. His eyes glowed with a pale blue light.

The Skeleton's fiery eyes locked onto him, and when this happened, the Skeleton was slightly taken aback.

This was the opportunity Elaris needed. She unleashed her attack, sending it forward with tremendous speed.

The Skeleton regained its senses, but the spear was already in front of its head, on the verge of penetrating it.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort shattered the ice spear that was in front of the Skeleton.

The snort was from the Skeleton, it was the one who used a snort to destroy the ice spear.

Grey knew it wasn't done by a spear, when he spread out his spiritual consciousness, he noticed the change around the essence close to the Skeleton.

'He can manipulate the essence of the world? Or… does this have something to do with his domain?'

These were the two questions in Grey's mind. The former was difficult to accept, but the latter was very believable.

If the Skeleton released its domain silently, it would be able to destroy the ice spear within a second.

Grey didn't stay idle, with the ice spear destroyed, he attacked.

With a flash, a lightning bolt struck the Skeleton, forcing it back a step.

The attack was too fast, no one saw it coming, even the Skeleton.

Brax and Victor each took a step forward and attacked. They were both Earth Elementalists.

A large boulder dropped on the spot the Skeleton was standing. But it was destroyed in a second.

After the boulder was destroyed by the Skeleton, an earth hammer came from the side, slamming into the Skeleton.

The Skeleton stretched out its palms and held the hammer.

The jammer was more than five times its size, but the hammer wasn't able to make it move an inch.

Brax, seeing this attacked too, using another hammer from the side, with the hopes of crus.h.i.+ng the Skeleton in the middle.

The expected result didn't come, rather, the Skeleton used one hand to stop Victor's hammer, spreading his other arm apart to stop Brax's hammer.

Another lightning bolt struck the Skeleton while it was in this position.

Not just a lightning bolt, but multiple ice arrows bombarded the place the Skeleton was standing.

Boom!

A large explosion rang out, raising a dust cloud on the place the Skeleton was standing.

The group looked on, they were well aware that wouldn't be enough to cause any harm to the Skeleton. And just like they predicted, when the dust cloud subsided, they saw the Skeleton covered with a glowing transparent blue dome. Their hearts sank when they saw this.

"I must applaud your effort, it was quite thrilling. But it ends here."

The light dome s.h.i.+elding the Skeleton started to expand, moving very fast.

'Don't let it touch you.'

Void's voice echoed in Grey's head.

Grey didn't need Void to remind him about this, he could sense how dangerous the light coming was.

He focused and used his fusion orb, sending two at the light.

The light coming paused, and a slight crack was seen on it.

Grey's eyes brightened when he saw this. He retreated and attacked it once again. He could only create two fusion orbs at a time, and while creating them simultaneously, they wouldn't have the strength of his strongest fusion orb, but each was still very destructive.

When the Skeleton saw this, its eyes glowed with a mysterious light. The previous blue fires which were in the place of its eyes turned pitch black.

The aura in the room changed drastically and Grey noticed the elemental particles in the area were being controlled by the Skeleton. If this continued, he wouldn't be able to complete the next set of fusion orb, and will most likely not be able to break through this light coming their way.
