Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis went to a secluded place deep underground to comprehend the Hard Complex Material Law.

However, for quite some time, Gravis couldn't calm down.

A hard fight was on the horizon.

Gravis knew that this fight wouldn't be as dangerous as his fight against Eran, but there was still a good chance that Gravis might die. If Gravis were to fight alone, this fight would probably be even more dangerous than his fight against Eran, but he was fighting with Mortis.

Together with Mortis, it should be possible to win the fight.

'It's been over 11,000 years since my last tempering,' Gravis thought. 'Far shorter than the break I had before that, but it feels even longer. However, that's understandable since I've done a lot of memorable things since then.'

Gravis took out the four fruits and looked at them. 'Three should be enough with my experience in the Material Laws. I also don't need tempering for level five Laws anymore, which should make this far easier.'

'It's all thanks to my affinity with lightning, actually,' Gravis thought with furrowed brows. 'Usually, Cultivators need to comprehend about three level five Laws before they can comprehend another one without tempering. Yet, thanks to my affinity towards lightning, I can look at the Lightning Laws first, allowing me to gather enough experience.'

'Anyway, I should eat the fruit first.'

Gravis threw the fruit into his maw and closed his eyes.

As soon as the fruit reached his stomach, Gravis felt a ton of materials being created in his stomach. Yet, these materials didn't just stay there but quickly dispersed again.

In just the blink of an eye, so many materials had materialized and dematerialized. These materials existed, but they also kind of didn't exist. Their Energy didn't settle down, after all. If the Energy settled down, the materials would actually manifest, and they wouldn't vanish anymore.

However, that would mean that the Energy would also be used up.

There wasn't so much Energy in the Life Fruits to create many materials, but that wasn't the important part. The important part was that the Energy was almost ethereal as it manifested into materials and then transformed into Energy again.

As Gravis concentrated on all these materials, something suddenly shocked him so hard that his focus was broken.

'What was that just now!?' Gravis thought. 'Did I see that correctly!?'

Gravis continued looking at the manifesting materials but no longer cared about the Law for now. Right now, he was only focusing on categorizing the materials.

Whoop!
