Affinity:Chaos
chapter-1171

Grey stayed with the group for a week and was still unable to learn their language. He knew it would take some time, but he didn't want to waste such times. Luckily for him, he found a new way to study the energy these people were using.

Void and the bunny leader walked to him as he watched the people in this tribe live their regular lives.

'Aren't you done yet, the thing might be taken if we spend too long here.' The bunny leader asked.

'What's the rush, stay calm, I'll learn it and we will head to our original destination.' Grey transmitted his voice to the bunny leader.

He then added, "Besides, what's so important about that place?"

The bunny leader didn't waste any time and responded, 'I don't know, but I'm sure it is good.'

Grey looked at the bunny leader for a while, although skeptical, he knew whatever the bunny leader wanted there was precious.

He didn't speak with the bunny leader any more and decided to kidnap one of the youths from the tribe.

After two more weeks, Grey had gotten the basics of how to use the golden light. He didn't learn their language since it would be a waste of time. After studying the young man he kidnapped using the golden energy, he was able to understand some things about it. Although it sounded like it was easy to do, he found out it was very difficult.

He let the young man go and continued his mission to head to speed, and with Grey providing it with all the resources needed, it was advancing at a crazy speed.

where the bunny leader pointed him to.

The bunny leader was just as fast as Void in terms of cultivation speed, and with Grey providing it with all the resources needed, it was advancing at a crazy speed.

A month went by in the blink of an eye. And the trio finally got to where the bunny leader suggested.

'This is a huge city, is this where you wanted to go?' Void looked at the bunny leader, he didn't sense anything useful in the place, hence his current annoyance.

'It's no ordinary place. Come with me, you will see.' The bunny leader excitedly rushed to the gate of the city.

Grey didn't see any humans entering the place so he knew it was not a place for humans.

The people there, well not really people, they were all Beasts, Magical Beasts. Unlike most beasts, they all had one distinctive feature, all of them walked on their hindlegs, none of them walked in all four.

Grey used the space element and teleported into the city, surprisingly, there was no array that stopped him. Originally, when he tried to use the space element, he thought he would be stopped, but things didn't go as he thought.

After entering the city, he covered his body with the cloak he was wearing, he knew it would be easy for him to be spotted since he was quite different from the others, even with his body covered, he was still not like the others.

He hid in the shadows, not coming out. Just as this entered the city, Void sensed something and couldn't hide his excitement.

'There's something good here. Let's go take it.' Void urged.

'Calm down, even though all the Beasts we've seen are all in the Sage Plane, it doesn't mean there aren't stronger ones.' Grey didn't want to step out recklessly. He didn't believe this place would be left still flourishing if there was not at least a Magical Beast in the Elemental Venerable Plane.

Since humans have been coming here regularly, they must have gone through this place at a given time and once they find out there aren't strong Beasts present, they would ransack the place. With how lively the place was, Grey believed otherwise.

'Fine, let's ask the bunny.' Void suggested.

They hadn't seen the bunny leader since they entered this place.

After waiting for a while, Void was able to track the bunny leader down. It was wandering at the edge of the city. Grey and Void felt all the good things would be kept in the middle of the city, but when they got close to where the bunny leader was situated, they realized treasures were sprawled all over the place.

What was unique about this place was that, without getting close to the treasures, there was no way to sense it. Even with Void's unique treasure sensing ability, he was still not able to sense it, only after getting close did he sense it.

Void's eyes shone with excitement, while the bunny leader was staring at a golden fruit. The fruit was around the size of a fist, and it had black spots on it. It was the only fruit in the tree. This tree was guarded by three large bulls, all at the Peak of the Sage Plane.

Grey looked at the fruit in curiosity, he tried to recall all the fruits he had read about but he didn't seem to have seen this fruit before.

'What's that?' He asked the bunny leader.

'It's a rare fruit. It's related to the source of this world. There are multiple fruits related to the source of this world, but this one is the best. With it, you can learn to use that golden energy you wished to learn.' The bunny leader explained.

'Oh, I see. Then we should take it then.' Grey was quite curious about that golden energy and wanted to learn it, since this fruit can help him learn it, then he would take it.

'No rush. If the fruit is plucked recklessly, it would be useless. From what I know, it should be plucked on the day the world is at its most chaotic.' The bunny leader stopped Grey in his tracks.

'When the world is at its most chaotic? How would we know when it would be?' Grey raised one of his brows.

He didn't know too much about this since it wasn't part of the information his Grandfather passed on to him.

'Due you think this place is called the 'Chaos Battlefield' just for the sake of it?' The bunny leader scoffed before explaining, 'Before the battle that wrecked this place, there was already an energy here. All life is associated with the origin source, this place included. However, due to the battle that happened here, the link to the energy source was destroyed, plunging this world into chaos. A few hundred years went by and then the world changed, there was a strange new energy that was born into the world, the chaos energy…'

Grey listened attentively to what the bunny leader was saying, understanding the things about this place. According to what the bunny leader said, when the chaos energy emerged, this place fell into total chaos, most of the lifeforms couldn't adjust to it and started to die out. Some of them managed to survive during the last second, while others adapted from the very start.

The chaos energy soon started to spread amongst all the people in the realm and before long, all of them had been using it.

This plant was one of the first few plants that evolved, and it was very important in helping the people in the world to understand the chaos energy.

Once every few years since then, the world would erupt with pure chaos energy and others who are closely linked with the origin source would find it difficult to use their elements.

'So you're saying I should wait till when I'll be at my weakest before I try to steal it?' Grey looked at the bunny leader with a cold gaze.

He would rather eat the fruit while it's still at the tree now, than to wait till then. The chances of him being caught at that time would be higher, especially if stronger beasts appear during that time. There were already three Peak Sage Plane beasts guarding it now, he was certain that there were stronger beasts around.

'It's not like you can't use your elements, it's just that it would be a bit difficult. I don't believe it would be hard for you, others, yes but you, no.' The bunny leader said.

It had been with Grey for a while now and had come to understand him. Unlike most people, Grey was too different. He had seen Grey use every element possible, and he was using them with such ease. Not just that, but Grey was also the best genius he had seen. He knew if not for Grey purposely slowing down his cultivation, he would've grown more than he has done now.

Grey looked at the bunny leader for a while before looking at the world, he couldn't help but fall deep in thoughts.

'I wonder if this place is related to that senior?' He asked himself internally.

The orb he got his power from, the chaos orb according to the Chaos God, was the inheritance of the greatest God, well, that was how he addressed himself.

Since the Chaos God and this place had chaos in their names, he couldn't help but wonder if there was any form of relationship between them.
