Grey calmed his mind, and after a brief moment of consideration, he decided it was best he first tried to refine the space elemental treasure. He had a higher mastery over his space element, so he believed that the chances of acquiring something from the space orb were higher. Of course, he didn't know if there would be any gains, but he didn't have the time to think about the possible end result of his retreat.
Without wasting any time, he took out the box that contained the space orb, and after taking it out, he used his essence to wrap it, letting it float in front of him as he started to use his essence to refine it while he closed his eyes in a meditative state to fully immerse himself in the process of refining the space orb. The space orb was covered by Grey's essence, but in truth, Grey was trying to use his essence to smelt the orb and integrate whatever was inside into his body.
