Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis was quite surprised.

Yes, that was a pretty big incident!

"How powerful was the Highest Commander of Humanity?" Gravis asked.

"He was the publicly acknowledged strongest human," Siral answered. "He was a Peak Immortal Emperor that knew the level six Law of Blaze."

Gravis nodded. That truly was quite powerful.

The Law of Blaze was the level six Law equivalent to the Law of Inferno. If the Highest Commander also had that Law as his Avatar, he would have had control over an offensive level seven Law. Even more, with Weapon Techniques, the power of Blaze might have even been pushed to the power of a level 7.5 Law.

Was it even possible for a human to withstand such an attack?

Even beasts would be burned into nothingness as soon as they came into contact with such a force.

Who could kill someone like that?

"Who killed him?" Gravis asked with interest.

Usually, the demise of the Highest Commander of Humanity wouldn't interest him that much. After all, Gravis wasn't really part of either camp in the war. The death of such a powerful figure wouldn't be different to Gravis than the death of any normal Cultivator.

However, Arc had said that this incident could result in a nice tempering opportunity for Gravis.

This meant that the killer was most likely the intended target for Gravis' tempering.

"It was a woman by the name of Nira Frostglacier," Siral said.

'Frostglacier?' Gravis thought with furrowed brows. 'I've heard that last name before.'

"You might know her as the previous Sect Master of the Nine Elements Sect."

A woman with blue eyes and blue hair appeared in Gravis' memory. Her eyes exuded a kind of feeling that showed that she had everything in the world under her control.

"It's her?" Gravis asked with a cold gleam in his eyes.

This was the woman that had wanted to force Stella into a marriage with the All-Matter Sect that would have resulted in Stella's death.

Obviously, Gravis didn't have any good feelings for her.
