Lightning Is the Only Way

Finally, Gravis could completely let himself go. Now, there was nothing but understanding Laws.

Gravis sat down in the sky and closed his eyes as he felt the effects of the lightning all around him. Humans didn't feel the effects of Lightning's Magnetism, but everything else felt it. Stone, other lightning bolts, metal, and even the air were under the rule of magnetism. Of course, magnetism affected different things differently. Some felt it more strongly, while others felt it with less power.

'This is so interesting,' Gravis thought as he absorbed a lightning bolt to analyze it. After absorbing one, he shot out another one to replace the absorbed Energy. 'Now, even non-magnetic things are under the influence of Lightning's Magnetism. This is the difference between the normal and the High-Tier Law of Lightning's Magnetism.'

Gravis continued absorbing different bolts of lightning and analyzed them. The disciple still looked at Gravis and was surprised by Gravis' resistance towards lightning. This guy was resisting these powerful lightning bolts with just his body. He didn't even flinch! That was incredible!

Of course, no sane Cultivator would believe that someone could just absorb lightning. After all, something like this was simply not possible.

"I challenge this resource point!" someone shouted suddenly.

Gravis opened his eyes and narrowed them in annoyance.

'Already!?'

"How much time has passed?" Gravis asked the other disciple in the area, who was also looking at the new arrival.

"About three weeks," the disciple said.

"That short, huh?" Gravis said with a sigh.

'It felt like no time had passed. It was like I have just started comprehending this Law, but three weeks have already passed. I just managed to completely concentrate on the Law, but someone else already interrupted me.'

Gravis sighed again. 'Well, I said I would defend the resource point. Also, I should make an example of this person so that I don't get disturbed for the foreseeable future.'

SHING!

Gravis teleported out of the Formation Array and looked at the new arrival.

It was a woman with light-blue hair, and she was an Early Minor Circulation Immortal King.

"This is my resource point," Gravis said evenly. "Leave or fight. It's your decision."

The woman looked with surprise at Gravis.

A Peak Immortal was defending this resource point? Did she make a mistake and went to the wrong resource point?

She looked around for a bit and noticed that she was at the correct place. Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Gravis again. "Who are you? Why are you here? This should be defended by an Immortal King."

"I'm Gravis, and this is my resource point. It belongs solely to me," Gravis said. "I'll repeat myself. Leave or fight. I'm not part of the Sect Alliance. If you don't leave, I will kill you."

When the Immortal King heard Gravis' name, she furrowed her brows. Gravis? Hadn't she heard that name before?
