Lightning Is the Only Way

As soon as Gravis took out his Lightning Board, Old Man Lightning grew interested. "Hey, can I have one?" he asked.

Gravis looked at the old man with a smirk and retrieved another one. "Try it, but it's pretty hard to control it at first. Here, I'll show you."

Gravis gave Old Man Lightning some tips on how to use the Lightning Board correctly, and then they shot off. In the beginning, Old Man Lightning was a little clumsy, but he quickly adapted. After all, he had supreme control over his body.

With Gravis' higher lightning density, he was able to move way faster than before. His speed on the board had increased by half again, which was insanely fast, but that wasn't the end. Due to his lightning poking out of his body, its inherent magnetism also pulled the board upwards. Of course, the passive magnetism of his lightning wasn't enough to lift the board and his weighty body. Still, that made him even faster. Yet…

"WOOOOOOW!" Old Man Lightning transmitted with his Spirit as he shot through the area. His lightning was way denser than Gravis', so he was also way faster. He even started circling Gravis with insane speeds.

Right now, Gravis' speed was a little faster than Old Man Lightning's speed without the board. This already showed how fast and powerful Old Man Lightning was. Yet, Old Man Lightning's speed on the Lightning Board was just insane. Gravis guessed that he would need to reach the Tree Stage to reach such speeds.

CRK!

Suddenly, the Lightning Board under Old Man Lightning cracked apart. Apparently, he had been too fast for the board. After all, the Lightning Board was made by forgers in the Middle-Continent. They weren't able to make a Lightning Board that was able to resist such speeds.

Old Man Lightning tumbled and fell to the ground. His insane speeds made him tumble and roll for several kilometers until he finally stopped. His tumble left a wake of destruction behind. Gravis stopped beside Old Man Lightning and saw his destroyed clothes and dirty body.

"Hahaha!" Gravis broke out into loud laughter. After all this time of Old Man Lightning abusing him, it was finally Gravis' turn to see Old Man Lightning getting abused.

BZZZ! Whoop!

Old Man Lightning incinerated all the dirt on his body with his lightning and retrieved new clothes. Then, he gritted his teeth and looked at Gravis in annoyance. He quickly summoned his cane and shot it towards Gravis.

BZZZZ!

had seen that coming long ago, quickly moved his lightning from his chest into his head. After leaving the Sect, his lightning had already recovered to full, so when it went into his head, Gravis' head was seemingly replaced by a ball of lightning. The cane halted, and Old Man Lightning gritted his teeth further in frustration. This was not the first time Gravis had done

Man Lightning wasn't prepared for it. So, he had hit Gravis' head with his cane, which made the lightning shoot out, destroying the majority of Old Man Lightning's arm.
