Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis and Arc talked for a couple of hours more until Gravis decided that he should get to Weapon Cultivation.

His lightning was no longer comprised of any Laws, which meant that it could accommodate everything. So, theoretically, Gravis should now be able to use Weapon Cultivation.

Mortis wasn't inside Gravis' Spirit Sense range, but that didn't matter. Mortis was Gravis' Avatar, and Gravis could always feel where Mortis was. He could even communicate with him from any distance.

Gravis left Arc's clearing and went to an isolated place where no one else was. Arc's clearing was gigantic, but in front of the size of the entire world, it was nothing. However, there was still a lot of space for Gravis to go where no one could interact with him.

Gravis arrived near a tree in the forest and sat down. Most of the trees had no Cultivation. They were only normal trees.

SHING!

Gravis retrieved a saber and began thinking as he looked at it.

'I should be able to use Weapon Techniques now, and I should also be able to create a Focus. So, let's try.'

Gravis thought back to the time he had created his first Focus and tried using it. However, this Focus was based on Punishment Lightning, not on Energy or Gravis' new form of lightning.

This meant Gravis had to start anew.

BZZZ!

Gravis summoned his lightning and looked at it. He knew all its properties, but he hadn't actually seen it before.

It was black.

When it came to paint, black was a mixture of all colors, but when it came to light, black was the absence of colors. His lightning was completely empty. There was nothing in it except for a weird composition of Energy.

Gravis looked at his black lightning for a while as he studied it.

'What kind of lightning is it? Is it even lightning?' Gravis asked himself.

This kind of lightning had never been seen before in the Cosmos, which meant that it didn't have a name.

'I should give it a name. Calling it lightning without any Law sounds weird.'
