Lightning Is the Only Way

After another week of travel, Gravis and Siral arrived in the proximity of the Nine Elements Sect. The number of mortal villages and cities became higher the closer they got. The Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Emperors probably didn't dare to fight this close to the Nine Elements Sect, granting the mortals a relative paradise.

Fortunately, Gravis and Siral didn't come across any Cultivation cities, thanks to the red arrow that the old man in the Life Sect's branch had shown them. There had to be a ton of powerful cities and Sects under the rulership of the Nine Elements Sect, but by just following the red arrow, Gravis and Siral avoided all of them.

Gravis was thankful for the old man's help. Without him, Gravis would have needed to continually send Siral forward as a scout that checked millions of kilometers around them. After all, there could be Immortal Emperors in these cities, and their Spirit Sense's range was insane. Because of that, they couldn't even allow themselves within a couple million kilometers of a Sect or city.

This would have drastically increased their traveling time and would have been annoying.

Another week later, Gravis and Siral were leaving the surroundings of the Nine Elements Sect again. They noticed this firstly because of the lower density of mortal villages and secondly because of the red arrow on the map.

They hadn't run into anybody else in their journey.

They hadn't even seen another Immortal or Immortal King.

Of course, something like this was obvious.

How huge was this world?

This world was so gigantic that it was incomprehensible. Gravis and Siral had already traveled for trillions of kilometers.

Even if there were a trillion Immortals in this world, there would still need to be an entire kilometer between each one of them when they stood in a single line. However, the world wasn't a line but a huge area.

As long as one didn't go to any gathering places for Immortals or Immortal Kings, the chances of meeting another Cultivator outside were minuscule. The size was just far too large.

Another week later, Gravis and Siral were on the halfway mark between the Nine Elements Sect and the beast territory.

On this day, Gravis and Siral stopped for the first time.

Why?

Because the red arrow had ended on around this area.

This meant that it was no longer safe for Gravis to continue. Everything from this point onward would be dangerous.
