Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis was currently facing a severe crisis, and he could only think of two ways that would help him get out of this situation.

Yet, both choices would have devastating consequences and would be even riskier than fighting the Core Disciple one on one.

The first way would be to use his Avatar to free himself of the suppression of the new arrival's Will-Aura. Then, he would need to quickly kill all the guards on the ground and absorb their Energy to reach the next level.

Gravis would only need around six or seven of the guards to reach the next level, but then everyone would see his ability to kill and absorb humans. Gravis couldn't allow this, which would require him to kill all witnesses.

Additionally, the Energy of beings below his Realm was useless to his growth, no matter how many he killed. This meant that these guards could, at most, bring him to the Mid Minor Circulation Realm, no matter how numerous they were.

The next step would be to kill the Core Disciple while being under the barrage of the new arrival's attacks to absorb the Core Disciples Energy to reach the Late Minor Circulation Realm.

Then, Gravis would need to kill the new arrival.

The chances of survival would be slim, and on top of that, Gravis would be on a strict timer. The superiors of the dead guards would arrive very quickly, and if they arrived before Gravis managed to kill the new arrival and flee, Gravis would then need to kill them too, which would gather even more superiors. In no time at all, Gravis would be overwhelmed.

Additionally, even if he managed to pull this off, Gravis would have offended over a hundred Sects. Gravis couldn't guarantee that no one knew the Law of Time. At least one of them would know the Law, which would allow them to inspect the immediate past, revealing everything that happened.

Then, all the Sects would know what had happened, and they would also know who had massacred all their soldiers. After that, the Sects would send searching parties and would find Gravis due to his aura.

Gravis was fast, but his Spirit Sense didn't reach as far as the ones in the Major Circulation Realm. This meant that Gravis wouldn't be able to see or notice the searching parties before they noticed him, effectively forcing him to blindly flee into a random direction. With Gravis' luck, he would almost certainly run into a conglomerate of searching parties.

This choice would only allow Gravis to survive if he were supremely lucky, and that wasn't the case for him.

So, this choice would certainly end with Gravis' death.
