Lightning Is the Only Way
Chapter 718
"You're very impressive, Gravis," Jake said from the side with a distant look. It was like he fell into melancholy and was thinking about someone dear to him that he had lost.
"What do you mean?" Gravis asked.
Jake sighed. "Many people try to create a loving and close family while still cultivating. Yet, as you know, not everyone can keep up. For mortals, a century is their entire life, while for us, it's basically nothing. When Cultivators create families, they always have to decide between cultivation or their family."
"One Law Comprehension session can take multiple centuries, and even Spirit Forming Cultivators would see their entire life end during that time. To us, not seeing our family for a hundred years is not a big deal, but to someone far weaker, it may even be their entire life."
"We feel like we take a lot of time for our loved ones, but our loved ones feel abandoned since we haven't visited them in over a decade. Families break apart and get estranged. The children will feel like their father had never been part of their life, while for their father, it only felt like a coffee break."
"When someone that still chases after power creates a family, it nearly always ends in tragedy, but not you," Jake said. "You managed to have a loving daughter while still chasing power. You can take your breaks to comprehend Laws and return while nothing has changed."
Instead of appreciating the sentiment, Yersi felt sad. She knew exactly why Jake envied Gravis.
How powerful was Jake? How long had Jake lived? How long would one Law Comprehension session of his take?
To put this into perspective, Jake planned to dedicate himself to a 10,000 year long Law Comprehension session as soon as he had worked enough. This would be five times as long as Yersi had already been alive.
This was like a 20-year-old meeting their love for the first time. Then, that love would leave for 100 years until they would return. How long would that feel? Their love would have been gone for far longer than the person had been alive for.
Because of this, Jake made the decision to extend his shift for another 10,000 years. Only when they had been together for 10,000 years could he feel comfortable enough to leave for 10,000 years.
Yersi was keeping Jake away from his cultivation, and she felt guilty for that.
Jake wanted to become more powerful, but he had to put his goal on hold because of Yersi.
Additionally, what about after that? Yersi was probably not powerful enough to survive her first tribulation, which meant that she would die in about 48,000 years. If Jake wanted to continue cultivating while still keeping in contact with Yersi, he would probably cultivate for around 20,000 of the 48,000 years. This meant that Yersi would only see him for around 50% of her life.
