Lightning Is the Only Way

SHING!

Gravis' saber went through Jessy's entire body. Yet, obviously, this had not been the real Jessy. Gravis knew that cultivators and beasts with the darkness affinity had quite a talent for trickery. If he had believed this Jessy to be the real one, he would have unloaded the pre-loaded Lightning Crescent into her.

Jessy was a level four King. Someone with that power would not make such a rookie mistake like preparing themselves mentally when a fight was about to start. This had been bait laid out by Jessy to get Gravis closer to her. Gravis didn't mind the trap and jumped right into it.

The bisected body transformed into shadows as it vanished.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

Several blades out of darkness appeared around Gravis as they shot towards him.

WHOOOM!

Gravis' Spirit destroyed the will upon them, but since they had been created by Jessy herself and not by some external material, Gravis couldn't retrieve them with his Spirit Space.

Suddenly, a powerful, red suit of armor appeared around Gravis. Would Gravis have fought a level four King without preparing his armor first? Of course not! Defeating such an opponent required all his power, including his armor. Luckily for him, this time, the ore he had used had a color he actually liked.

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!

The darkness blade behind Gravis was blocked by his tail, while his saber blocked the other two. These darkness blades had an incredible sharpness, but they weren't fired with a lot of power behind them. As long as they hit him, the darkness Energy inside them would eat all of Gravis' Life Energy anyway.

Jessy appeared directly behind him in her true form. Kings could control their sizes freely to a certain degree, but if they wanted to unleash their full power, they needed to show their true form. Jessy was over 20 kilometers long, and her coat released some shadowy energies that combined with the darkness around her. One shouldn't forget that it was currently night.

A long and thin tail that ended in a thin blade shot at Gravis with incredible speed. This attack wouldn't be as weak as the darkness blades.

WHOOOM!

The surrounding darkness turned grey as Gravis activated his Will-Aura together with his Law of Suppression. Even though the other beasts weren't inside Gravis' Will-Aura, they still felt the overwhelming power of suppression. Yet, they couldn't even think about this powerful pressure as the fight continued.

more blades of darkness appeared around Gravis as they shot at him. They were fired with more power this time, and Gravis' body was thrown around as he parried them. Luckily, his armor was powerful enough to not get

these blades, but Gravis had gone through a lot of evasion training. Even though his body was

the blades just didn't stop. Jessy summoned more and more blades of darkness, and it became increasingly difficult for Gravis to dodge as Jessy learned Gravis' dodging patterns. Of course, such an avalanche of blades also consumed her Energy. If this situation continued, it would be up in the air if Gravis failed a dodge first or if she
