Lightning Is the Only Way

Stella was still in shock as she watched the gigantic network of roots right in front of her.

This was a plant, right?

Yet, how powerful did a plant have to be to kill an Ascender this easily!?

This plant even had to be more powerful than a normal Ancestor, which was crazy.

She had no idea that the beasts had someone with such an insane power.

She was even more shocked that Gravis actually knew that plant. How could Gravis even build a connection with such a powerful plant?

They had nothing in common, and there was a massive gap in power. According to her understanding, beasts and plants generally didn't talk with beings much weaker than them.

"This is Narcissus," Gravis said to Stella with a smile as he introduced the root network. "He keeps watch over the underground of the beast territory."

"He keeps watch over everything?" Stella asked.

"The underground, yes. He has quite a sizable body," Gravis said with a nod.

"Wait, so you mean like, everything everything?" she asked.

Gravis nodded.

Stella's eyes widened.

A plant could become this huge?

No wonder no human ever returned from an underground excursion to the beast territory. They had to pass through this ridiculously powerful being!

"Anyway," Gravis said. "For now, we are out of danger. I think it would be better to talk to Liam for a while. You two probably hadn't had enough time to chat with each other openly in the Nine Elements Sect. You can also come to some decisions on how to continue on from here."

"Gravis," Stella said with a worried voice.

"That can wait," Gravis said, interrupting her. "Talk to Liam for now. We can talk about everything else when I brought you all far away from here."

Stella still seemed like she wanted to say something, but she also understood that Gravis had a point. So, in the end, she nodded and entered the Life Ring.
