Lightning Is the Only Way

"I admit, my Sect might not be able to resist you," Sect Master Urgnah said, "but the Sect Alliance belongs to the Heaven Breaker Sect, and that's a power you can't fight!"

"Heaven Breaker Sect, huh?" Gravis asked with a smirk. "Is that the hidden overlord of the Sect Alliance? The one that you pay so many resources to?"

The Sect Master became surprised that Gravis knew that they were paying the Heaven Breaker Sect. Only the Sect Masters and Vice Sect Masters knew this! How did he know!? However, that didn't matter right now.

"So, you know," the Sect Master said with narrowed eyes. "Then you also know that you can't just do whatever you want here."

Instead of backing down, Gravis chuckled a bit. "I think you got something wrong."

"What?" the Sect Master asked with indignance.

"The Heaven Breaker Sect is only interested in resources. They don't really care about Law Comprehension Areas since they should have plenty of those themselves. Additionally, Law Comprehension Areas can't just be transported and handed over."

"So, let's assume that you go to the Heaven Breaker Sect and tell them that someone is encroaching on your authority. The first thing they would ask is how powerful I am. So, you say that I am a Peak Immortal, and immediately, they would feel like you're useless. How can you not deal with a Peak Immortal?"

Sect Master Urgnah gnashed his teeth.

"Next thing," Gravis said. "You tell them all about me, and then they believe you. The next thing they would ask is what I have stolen. After all, they are interested in their own tribute more than anything. What will you say? You can't lie, so you will say that I stole nothing."

Gravis chuckled a bit again. "And you know how that will end, right?"

Sect Master Urgnah didn't like what he was hearing.

"They will say that they don't care," Gravis said with a smirk. "They would say that you should stop annoying them with this unimportant stuff and to contact them again when I start stealing so much stuff that it affects their tribute."

"However, obviously, I'm not going to do that," Gravis said. "I'm only here to comprehend Laws, nothing more. I'm not even disallowing your Sect from sending disciples here. For the next 20,000 years or so, I will be traveling from Law Comprehension Area to Law Comprehension Area, just comprehending Laws."

"I'm not interested in your ores. I'm not interested in your Immortal Stones. I'm not interested in anything physical. I only want to comprehend Laws, nothing more."
