Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis charged upwards, right to the battlefield of Escura, the bird and the tree. His Energy reserves were at only about 20%. He could not use much more in a fight since he still had to keep up his lightning movement. It was better if he ended the fight very quickly.

Escura initially had trouble fighting the bird and the tree at the same time, but the tree was slowly losing strength. Its attacks were not as vigorous as in the beginning anymore. The fire, on the other hand, was getting wilder and wilder. Gravis was nearly exclusively charging through fire by now, on his way to the battlefield.

The bird and Escura were also starting to feel the heat, and their battleground was moving upward, away from the fire. Gravis finally arrived after several seconds of charging. The bird noticed Gravis and immediately used its wind so that Escura would lose her balance just when he arrived.

SHING!

Gravis saw his chance and buried his saber deep into Escura's torso. The bird's timing was just too perfect, and with Escura only having so much concentration to spare due to the bird and the tree, she couldn't defend properly. At least, she was able to stop the saber from completely bisecting her by using a lot of her lightning.

"Finally, you're here!" she shouted with hatred, seemingly not noticing the saber in her torso. She immediately used her lightning to force the bird away and then took out a jade token. Without hesitation, she broke the token, and a Formation Array was created around their battlefield with a diameter of ten meters.

Gravis' eyes narrowed. He had used a similar Formation Array against the centipede, and he knew that this Formation Array could keep things out or keep them in. Gravis could also judge that he could probably not break it. Escura wouldn't be so stupid as to use a Formation Array that would break under his attacks.

"You bastard!" Escura shouted in rage. "I wanted to use this Formation for a while, but you never got close enough!" Escura lifted her spear and pointed it at Gravis. "Now, you can't escape anymore."

Gravis lifted his eyebrows in confusion. "Why didn't you use this earlier?" he asked calmly. He was in an incredibly dangerous position right now, but he was used to life and death struggles. This was nothing different.
