Lightning Is the Only Way

After this happy event, Gravis continued narrating his story. After all, he still wasn't finished with it. He finished talking about the first fight at the tree, and Lasar nodded. He wasn't happy about Gravis killing so many people from the Lightning Guild, but in his mind, everything had been repaid.

"The things that happened in the Proxy-Lightning Guild were what pushed you past the realm of an Ascender's Talent. The tempering of your will due to these circumstances and the following fight made you the best Ascender's Talent. Yet, with the addition of your Destruction Lightning, you broke through that threshold. Before that, you would still have rivals in your Realm, but starting at that point, not anymore," Lasar analyzed.

Gravis nodded. "That's also what I thought."

Gravis then told them about how he managed to barely arrive at the Heaven Sect.

"Where is that ring?" Old Man Lightning asked in interest. Gravis had just told him about how he had used his ring to block an attack from the Spirit Forming attacker.

Gravis revealed a bitter smile. "I might've forgotten to look for it. It's probably still somewhere around the Heaven Sect," he said while scratching the back of his neck.

Old Man Lightning groaned. "You get such an amazing treasure, and you don't even care to pick it up off the ground?"

"I mean, my father said it's just some ring to indicate my status to other people in my homeworld. It doesn't have any other uses. After all, if it had some kind of effect that protected my life, my cultivation journey would take a hard hit if it ever took effect. If I want to reach the peak, I can't carry something that might protect me. Any future tempering would be an issue after such an incident," Gravis explained.

Old Man Lightning sighed. "I think that mindset is too extreme, but what do I know? After all, the people in your homeworld probably know more about this than me. Just continue," he said in defeat.
