the group walked past the large door, entering the pyro faction. as soon as grey stepped foot into the faction, he noticed multiple powerful senses locking onto him. he looked around and saw a few people who some of those senses belonged to. three youths who were in the seventh stage of the sovereign plane were standing by the side of the gate, and as soon as anyone enters, they'll naturally investigate. of course, they didn't dare to try this with the elders and grands elders from the pyrmond faction, targeting only the youngsters. they didn't expect any of them would be able to sense them, and it was only after they've already attempted it did they notice this.
when the duo saw grey's gaze, they had shocked expressions on their faces and hastily withdrew their spiritual senses, while nodding gently to grey.
grey's gaze didn't hold any ill intent, he didn't even care if these guys were sizing them up. the truth was, with how powerful his spiritual senses was, he had been keeping tabs of everything within a hundred meters radius of himself, so even before these guys sensed him, he had sensed their presence.
there were multiple seventh stage sovereigns senses locked on him, and he could also sense a large number of eighth stage sovereigns. there's no way to accurately confirm the exact cultivation stages of an elementalist from just the strength of their spiritual senses, but most elementalists barely worry about training their mental strength, leaving only a few which are mostly necromancers and inscribers or arraymasters. given the small number of people who could increase their mental strength through other means, predicting the estimated cultivation stages of an elementalist from just their spiritual senses is quite high.
just the sheer number of people in the seventh and eighth stage took grey by surprise. he has been to a few top factions and families, and he wasn't sure there was this number of sovereigns present there, much less having so many in the late stages.
'these ancient factions can't be messed with.' he thought inside. there were a few senses he didn't try to investigate, not that he couldn't, but he could tell that these were senses of people in the ninth stage of the sovereign plane at least, and he didn't want to offend anyone of these people.
lord dante glanced through the group, and his eyes shone when he laid them on grey, a soft smile appeared on his face as he said, "sit."
"i'll go straight to the point since there's no time to delay, i would like for some of the youths from my faction to train in the pyro faction." faction leader bertram told lord dante the purpose of their visit.
bertram continued, "with the current situation of the world, we have to increase our overall strength, and i hope that you will be willing to extend a helping hand to our members."
"it's only natural to help a friend, especially when it involves our survival as well. there's no issue with bringing your youngsters." lord dante readily agreed, he added, "i can see that you brought some bright sparks with you today."
"yes, lord dante." faction leader bertram replied, he paused and asked, "i believe you've heard of lucas dawson?"
"isn't he the boy who became one of the youngest half gods a few years back?" lord dante gave a questioning look, he wasn't too interested in people who weren't long-time half god plane elementalists, and there were very few new half gods that could interest him. he heard the news of a young genius who shocked the outside world a few years ago. to someone like lord dante, anything within a thousand years is regarded as a few years back.
"yes, that person." faction leader bertram knew what lord dante was asking and confirmed, "this is his son."
lord dante's eyes trailed back to grey as he let out an "oh".
