Lightning Is the Only Way

What?

Arc had no chance of winning?

It wouldn't even be a fight?

The insurmountable battle Gravis had expected while residing in the higher world had turned out to not even be a battle at all.

Why?

The most significant factor why this wouldn't even be a fight is the Law of Sentience.

What did the Law of Sentience do?

If one looked at the difference between simple life and a powerful Cultivator, one would quickly see that the difference all came down to sentience.

In a sense, sentience included the ability to manipulate and understand one's surroundings. A non-sentient being wouldn't be able to look at iron and think of a way to make it into a weapon.

A non-sentient being also wouldn't be able to understand why iron was hard or where it came from.

In essence, a non-sentient being couldn't comprehend Laws, and this was the most important thing.

So, what could the Law of Sentience do?

It could stop the activation of all Laws on or below its level, including the user's Laws.

If Gravis activated the Law of Sentience, everything inside the range of his Spirit Sense wouldn't be able to unleash level eight or weaker Laws.

All level seven Laws would become useless.

All level eight Laws would become useless.

Arc would only have three Laws he could use.

First, his Heavenly Lightning, which was a level nine Law.

Second, his Law of the True World, which outclassed the Law of Sentience in power, therefore making it immune to its power. After all, it already included the Law of Sentience inside it.

Of course, Arc couldn't use that Law in their fight.

Third, Form Laws. Form Laws worked differently from normal Laws. Form Laws were activated in one's own Spirit and were then unleashed by precise movements.

A normal Law would need to manifest in the real world, but a Form Law didn't use the world as a medium to be unleashed, but the precise movements in conjunction with one's Spirit.

So, if Arc and Gravis fought, Arc would only be able to fight with his Form Law.

Of course, the same thing would also be true for Gravis and Mortis.

This entire fight would become a violent melee.

This was the power of the Law of Sentience.

If Gravis were alone, Arc would have a higher chance of victory. Sure, Gravis' body was definitely more optimized for these kinds of battles, but Arc had an insane amount of experience.

It was very possible that Arc could foresee Gravis' attacks before even Gravis himself thought of them.

This was the power of having lived and having watched beings for many billions of years.

Additionally, Arc would be able to regain his Energy and Life Energy by tapping into the resources of his world.

This would mean that Gravis had to end the fight in a single strike.

Such a fight would be devastatingly challenging for Gravis but not unwinnable.
