Lightning Is the Only Way

'Wait, wait, wait!' Gravis thought. 'Then, do I actually need a Focus? Don't I already have a Focus?'

Gravis looked at all the different Elements in the form of lightning with a stunned expression.

'I mean, my Void Lightning is logically a Law that I have created myself. However, it exists in actual reality. After all, even in its pure form, it can interact with the world without any issues. Normally, a Focus can only dwell in the body of the user, but my Void Lightning can actually exist outside of it.'

'I need to test this!' Gravis thought.

Gravis experimented with many different Laws, and he found out some interesting things.

If Gravis created something physical, like any of the Elements, they would have the speed attribute of his Void Lightning.

However, if Gravis created something that changed the attributes of something physical, like heat and cold, it didn't have the speed attribute of lightning. After all, heat and cold didn't really move. It was just a change of something that was already there.

Sadly, it still took more Energy than normal to create domains of heat and cold.

'So, if I use something like Storm's Pressure, Frost's Cold, or Infernos' Heat, I simply need to use more Energy without any positive gain. This means that, in a sense, my Focus, which is my Void Lightning, can only show its true power as a physical attack.'

Gravis scratched his chin.

'Additionally, if I want to use an Element to defend myself, like my Magma or Graphite, it will also cost more Energy without anything positive added. After all, speed is irrelevant when I can instantaneously summon a wall right in front of me.'

'Now, I can finally see the weakness of my Void Lightning. Its weakness is that I can't fight without using it. Normally, a Cultivator can choose to use their Focus or not. No normal Cultivator would use their Focus for defense or for heat and cold unless their Focus is specialized in that aspect. This allows them to continue using the normal Laws if necessary.'

'However, I am stuck using my Void Lightning, which is my Focus, if I want to or not. I can exclusively only fight with these new Laws.'

Gravis furrowed his brows. 'So, in short, I gave up part of my flexibility and adaptability in exchange for a stronger offense. That means I have to change my fighting style again.'

Gravis sighed.
