Lightning Is the Only Way

Roger almost couldn't process what Gravis just said. What was he talking about? Why would a Major Circulation Immortal die here? But then, it hit him. Wait, did Gravis just say that he would kill a Major Circulation Immortal!? That was impossible!

Gravis teleported out of the hall before anyone could react and reappeared in the sky, and for the first time, Gravis saw the higher world in its full glory.

The light caressed the land, and Gravis saw a lot of buildings all around them. Yet, he was sure that they were not inside a city. There were simply a ton of wooden huts with fields of rice everywhere. The hall that Gravis had just left was the only relatively imposing building for thousands of kilometers around.

Gravis could also see several mountains, but in comparison to regular mountains, they seemed to be shorter but steeper. Rivers crossed the land, and Gravis could also see a lot of cows, chickens, and other kinds of livestock living around the area.

Where there were buildings, there were humans, and Gravis could see that one family generally owned one wooden hut and several surrounding fields.

Obviously, Gravis was in the middle of a community of farmers. After a closer inspection, Gravis also saw that most households had at least one Energy Gathering Cultivator in their midst while the remainder was in the Body Tempering Realm.

'Are these the mortals of this world? Usually, only the mortals without any cultivation experience run farms, but here basically everyone but the little kids have at least some accomplishment in the Body Tempering Realm,' Gravis thought.

'Also, I get why people eat rice but so much? Can't you also get some wheat and make some bread or something? Why is everything just rice?' Gravis thought.

"Are you the servant that dared to kill my soldier?" the person in front of Gravis asked with narrowed eyes.

Gravis' attention moved back to the person. "Yes, but not on purpose," Gravis said.

The man huffed. "How can you kill someone a level above you mistakenly?" he asked with a tone that showed that he obviously didn't believe anything Gravis said.

"He pointed his spear at me, and I felt it was only fair to reciprocate. So, I took his spear and also pointed it at him," Gravis said.

"Insolence!" the man shouted with righteous anger. "You stole the path of a Weapon Cultivator!? This is even worse than directly killing him!"

Gravis rolled his eyes. "I know that now, but I didn't know it at the time."
