Lightning Is the Only Way

The surroundings exploded violently with Destruction Lightning, surprising Gravis. This was not just normal lightning, but his very own Destruction Lightning. What had happened? He also felt his lightning storage emptying to about 50%. He had involuntarily unloaded 50% of his lightning into the surroundings.

One had to know that Gravis' storage had nearly tripled. This 50% was equivalent to 150% of his previous storage. This was a lot of lightning! Luckily, the ground was made of Balzar while the tree remained unaffected. After all, this involuntary release of lightning didn't have Gravis' will behind it, making it just a stronger version of natural lightning.

Also, no disciple stood close to the tree, saving them from an untimely death. Gravis couldn't imagine what would happen if he were to kill tens of disciples by accident. Though, Gravis guessed that it wasn't his lack of Karmic Luck that achieved that, but the positive Karmic Luck of the disciples. After all, without Heaven's interference, their positive Karmic Luck still worked.

Still, the explosion raged into the surroundings, creating a shockwave that destroyed the ground and a couple of buildings. Everyone looked in shock at the explosion. Where did that come from?

After less than a second, the explosion calmed down. Gravis was still confused about what had happened. Why did his lightning suddenly go out of control?

WACK! BZZZZ!

The cane of Old Man Lightning hit Gravis again, but Gravis' lightning involuntarily attacked the cane as it came closer, traveling along the cane's surface to Old Man Lightning. The cane still hit Gravis, but not as strongly. Instead, he was more shocked about his own lightning going out of control again.

Old Man Lightning felt the lightning going into him, but since he was four Stages higher than Gravis with an equally powerful lightning resistance, he wasn't injured in the slightest. It only shocked his hand slightly. If it hadn't, Gravis would have been thrown away again.

Old Man Lightning looked at his hand with furrowed brows and then at Gravis' belly. "So, it's as I expected," he said, surprisingly not angry.

Gravis was still confused about the situation. "What happened? Why can't I control my lightning?"

Old Man Lightning lightly shook his hand to counteract the numb feeling. "When you absorbed lightning, I saw it going into your dantian. Yet, against all known cultivation laws, it started growing out of your dantian and even left your body. You should know what that means."

Gravis' eyes widened in realization. "Since the lightning left my body, it was no longer isolated by my body. Therefore, it struck the first thing that came near, which was the ground. That's why everything exploded!"

nodded. "Exactly. You still had some lightning leaving your body, but not enough to hit the ground. I attacked you so that it could unload itself into something that could
