Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis looked at a dark cave below him as he floated in the sky. The cave seemingly led into nothingness. Not even his Spirit Sense could truly enter it.

This cave led to the Law Comprehension Area for the Law of Humility. Although, it couldn't really be described as a Law Comprehension Area. It was a Heaven's Trial, after all.

However, the concept of a Heaven's Trial included more things than only a trial that killed the weakest Cultivators.

For example, Heaven's Trials could also be set up to teach Cultivators specific Laws by manipulating the world around them.

Physical Laws like the Elements, Life, Matter, and so on could easily be reflected upon physical reality. Creating Law Comprehension Areas for these Laws wasn't really hard.

Yet, how would one teach someone something as elusive as Humility?

How would one even create a Law Comprehension Area for that?

That's where the Heaven's Trials came in. Heaven had full control over the Heaven's Trials, which meant that Heaven could change the entire reality inside it, making the impossible possible.

"Well, I'm going in," Gravis said with a wave. "See you later!"

Stella waved back with a smile. "Don't be gone for too long."

"I won't," Gravis answered with a smile.

Then, Gravis flew directly into the cave.

Was there a chance of death?

Of course.

Heaven's Trials always had a chance of death.

The survival of the participant completely depended on if they were successful in accomplishing the goal of the Heaven's Trial.

The goal of this Heaven's Trial was to comprehend the Law of Humility.

As soon as someone comprehended the Law of Humility, they would be thrown out of the Heaven's Trial.

Yet, if someone failed, they would have to stay in the Heaven's Trial until they either understood the Law or died.

The death rate of this specific Heaven's Trial was at around 40%. It wasn't very high, but it also definitely wasn't low.

However, neither Stella nor Gravis were worried.

Gravis only had to comprehend an Emotional Law, and he already knew four other Laws of this category.

If he couldn't clear this Heaven's Trial, no one could.

As soon as Gravis entered, he felt the world warp around him. It was like he was being transported to a different place.

Gravis' Spirit Sense was also slowly being extinguished, and Gravis even felt his power falling, but he wasn't worried. This was all simply there to set up the Heaven's Trial.

SHING!

Then, Gravis felt like he had opened his eyes, even though they had been open the entire time.

Gravis was no longer in a cave but in a great hall.

On top of that, Gravis was sitting on the highest throne in the hall.

Gravis immediately used his Spirit Sense to check out the surroundings, but he was a bit surprised.
