Gravis felt incredible rage and frustration.

He should have known better! When all the facts had been laid out before him, he almost couldn't believe that he had committed to such a devastating and idiotic decision.

"I have received the memories that my Ancestor has of your father, Gravis," Heaven said, making Gravis perk up.

"When I have seen your father's rise to power, I have been truly humbled. His rise to power was even more difficult than yours has been up to this point, and he had managed to manage the dangers beautifully."

"He knew when to battle and when to retreat."

"He knew when to be diplomatic and when to be forceful."

"He knew whom he could fight and whom he couldn't fight."

"His path to power has been pure, untainted by any outsider's interference. In a world where every single human had Elemental Synchronicity, he has managed to stand on top of everyone but my ancestor."

"Yes, you heard correctly," Heaven said. "When your father had cultivated, every single human had had Elemental Synchronicity. Only after his rise has my ancestor decided to stop giving humans this ability since it was one of the keys to reaching your father's level."

"Your father wouldn't have decided to fight me if he weren't sure of his power."

"Yet, that is actually irrelevant," Heaven said as it looked deeply into Gravis' eyes, "because, when your father had been at your level, he had been powerful enough to actually fight me. If I were to fight your father when he had been at your level, I would have felt nervous and fearful."

"But when I look at you, Gravis, I see an arrogant child. You grandly spoke of your potential and power when I didn't allow you to become a Nascent Nourishing Cultivator without having children."

"I would be lying if I would say that I felt nothing back then. After all, your words were true. You actually have the potential to fight me when you became an Immortal, but your mindset has ruined your potential. Your arrogance has been the downfall of your so-called pure path to power, Gravis."

Gravis felt horrible when he heard these words.

Gravis had believed himself to be outstanding! No beast Gravis had ever seen had come even close to his Battle-Strength! He had increased his Battle-Strength to an impossible degree! He had believed himself to be as powerful or a bit more powerful than his father had been back then. After all, his father had said that no one had been able to kill a Heaven yet without ascending. Wasn't this proof of Gravis' power?

"Your father never looked at others," Heaven continued speaking. "He always only looked at himself. What was the point of being more powerful than others if he could still see inadequacies inside him? What do you think? How old was your father when he became an Immortal?"
