Lightning Is the Only Way

Everything happened instantaneously. Gravis freeing himself from the suppression, the summoning of the emblem, the breaking of the emblem, Gravis pushing all his Energy into the guard, all of this happened in the blink of an eye.

The Core Disciple and the new arrival couldn't react to the sudden and shocking actions of Gravis. None of them had even entertained the thought that Gravis had a chance of breaking out of such a powerful Will-Aura.

The breaking of the emblem would make it much harder for them to act as they wished, but it wouldn't be too bad. Someone at the Mid Minor Circulation Realm wouldn't be able to summon someone really powerful. Additionally, the person would take a while to come. Until they arrived, the Core Disciple and the new arrival would be long gone.

Yet, they had to hurry now. The new arrival took out his spear and aimed it at Gravis. He simply had to impale Gravis with his spear. At that point, Gravis wouldn't be able to unleash anything anymore, and he would be forced to follow the new arrival to his Sect.

WHOOOOM!

The new arrival strengthened himself with his Will-Aura and gathered power. Then, he shot at Gravis.

Gravis simply stood there. He had no Energy left, and without Energy, he couldn't use his lightning to boost his speed. Evading or blocking this attack was impossible. Gravis had put everything onto one card, and now, he only had to wait.

BANG!

Suddenly the air seemed to explode as a storm wreaked havoc in the air. The Core Disciple and the new arrival both got flung away and had to protect themselves while even the guards on the ground were thrown into the distance.

Yet, Gravis and the guard weren't affected by the storm.

Gravis' Avatar didn't protect him from such attacks, which meant that this storm specifically didn't target them.

On top of that, this wasn't even an attack.

The entire storm had been created by someone new arriving with an unreal amount of speed. Their arrival had been so fast that the mere air surrounding them created a storm of destruction.

This was no longer the power of an Immortal.

Everyone looked over in shock at a place beside the nearly dead guard.

A young man with long green hair and a two-meter long, green bow stood beside the guard. This person looked at the guard with concern, tragedy, and shock on his face.

Gravis could barely believe what had happened.

This person had arrived in just a single second, and his power was incredible. Gravis could only barely feel the power.

This was a Mid Minor Circulation Immortal King!

In the blink of an eye, the Immortal King's face went through an avalanche of emotions as he quickly processed everything he saw.

His eyes narrowed, and he looked at Gravis with rage-filled eyes.
