Lightning Is the Only Way

Chapter 550

With this brief intermission over, Gravis returned to understanding more about plants and life in general. Yet, there was one last thing that he had noticed about his situation.

'Heaven can use lightning, and I know for sure that it has a Will-Aura and a Spirit. If it didn't have a Will-Aura, the Heavenly Pressure of the Heavenborn in the lower world wouldn't have worked. This means that my fight against Heaven might actually be more dangerous than I had initially thought,' Gravis thought.

'I need to increase my Will-Aura to a point where Heaven can't weaken me anymore. Otherwise, I might die in our fight. Yet, that's a problem for when I increase my Realm again. Right now, I need to concentrate on the Laws in front of me,' Gravis thought as he looked at the forest.

Gravis threw everything else out of his mind and only looked at the plants in front of him.

Six years passed.

Right now, Gravis had been at his current level for about twelve years, but it didn't feel like it. Sure, the beginning of trying to understand a new Law always felt long, but the more he concentrated on something, the faster the time passed. During these six years, Ferris managed to comprehend another Law.

By now, Gravis knew a lot more about plants than before. Now, he was also sure what Laws were part of the plant-body. Roots, flowers, wood, leaves, and the "organs" were what made plants. The organ part referred to the water canals that moved nutritions and water from point A to point B. They also served as a storage for the wood element and Energy.

These five parts should each have a Law of Composition associated with them in addition to some other Laws that Gravis wasn't interested in currently.

Gravis looked at the forest again, noticing that he had barely seen 10% of its total. There were 90% more to go! The variety and size of this forest were insane!

Eight years passed.

By now, Gravis had been in this forest for 16 years in total, and he had seen about 25% of it. His progress was becoming faster as he managed to understand more.

Another eight years passed.

After 24 years in total, Gravis managed to understand about 50% of the plants in this forest. Ferris had also understood another Law during this time. Of course, obviously, his progress had slowed.

'Just wait, Ferris!' Gravis thought with burning eyes.

Another eight years passed.

After 32 years total, Gravis understood around 96% of all the plants in this forest. By now, he felt like he was about to understand several Laws. The feeling of being on the cusp of understanding another Law was as powerful as never before. Gravis was feeling it. He was so INCREDIBLY close to understanding all the underlying principles!

Yet, Gravis didn't concentrate on trying to understand the Laws. First, he wanted to understand every single plant in this forest. Theoretically, he might be able to force a comprehension with his current knowledge, but he wanted to know as much as possible before doing it. This way was safer.
