Lightning Is the Only Way

As soon as Mortis left The Heaven Company, he split into two level one Star Gods.

One of the Mortises took 55 million God Stones, and the other one kept the other five million.

The Mortis with the 55 million God Stones immediately went to the Teleportation Formation Array and traveled towards Gravis.

The other Mortis went to another building.

SHING!

Mortis arrived in front of a gigantic building. However, the building wasn't very tall. It only had about three floors. Yet, it was many kilometers long, and it was also near the middle of Opposer City.

The size and location of this building showed that the owner of this building was an incredibly powerful organization.

Mortis entered.

"Welcome to the Research Company! How can I help you?" the clerk asked.

Mortis looked around the hall and fell into a bit of nostalgia.

This was his first place of employment.

This was the company that had trained him when he had been just a Body Tempering Cultivator, and this was also the company that had sent him to the lower world.

"I need portals to lower and middle worlds," Mortis said. "Many."

The clerk was a bit surprised. "For whom?" she asked.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

About 100 Mortises in the Spirit Forming and Law Comprehension Realm appeared behind him.

"For them," Mortis said.

The clerk's mind stopped.

What?

What was going on?

Was she dreaming?

Did that guy in front of her suddenly transform into many small copies of himself?

"Please wait a moment," she said in confusion. "I need to call someone."

Mortis waited.

Some seconds later, an Ancestral God arrived in front of Mortis.

Even the Ancestral God was surprised about all these little Mortises.

"Do you know the Law of the Living World?" he asked.

"What's it to you?" Mortis asked coldly.

The Ancestral God was a bit surprised about Mortis' rude comment, but he realized that he had been the rude one.

Asking about someone else's Laws was a no-go.

"Forget I asked," the Ancestral God said. "You wish for all of these copies of yours to travel to lower and middle worlds?"

"Yes. I have the money required," Mortis said.

The Ancestral God released a sigh.

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that request," he said with some regret.

"Why not?" Mortis asked.
