Lightning Is the Only Way

Blood splattered as Gravis' body got reduced to multiple parts that fell away.

BZZZ!

Out of a severed, left hand, Gravis' body completely regrew. 'Fortunately, I regained rationality at the last moment and moved my Spirit, Energy, and lightning to a safe part of my body.'

When Gravis had regained rationality, he had noticed that it was too late to evade. Instead of evading, he moved everything important inside his body towards his left hand and then used the gathered inherent Energy of his body to regrow it completely. Sadly, that ultimately used up all the inherent Energy in his body.

Heaven became panicked and infuriated when it saw that Gravis had survived. This had been its last trump card. From now on, this would become a bitter war of attrition.

BZZZZ!

Gravis summoned some of his lightning and looked at it. It was no longer whitish-silver but completely white now. He had gained a lot of understanding towards this particular kind of lightning, but he still didn't know what it was.

'This is the same kind of lightning that Heaven uses, and it's completely different, but I'm sure of one thing.'

BANG

Gravis closed his hand around the small lightning ball, reabsorbing it. 'It's more powerful than Destruction Lightning!'

Gravis quickly turned back to the egg and shot forward again. The wind and spires appeared again while Gravis used his Will-Aura to destroy the world around him.

BANG!

Another punch to the egg and more of it cracked. The egg absorbed a ridiculous amount of Energy, but then, it stopped. There was no more Energy in the world. Everything had been converted into attacks and heat. The temperature of the Core-Continent had risen by over 20 degrees. The cultivators didn't notice, but the mortals were sweating from the heat.

Whooom!

Energy appeared from inside the egg and healed it. When Gravis saw that, his eyes narrowed. "Finally using your saved-up Energy, eh?" he said, "let's see how long that lasts!"

BZZZZ!
