Lightning Is the Only Way

More time passed.

15,000 years after Mortis got together with Azure, Gravis managed to finish the Law of Stone. It had taken longer than expected since he didn't have Mortis' help during all of this.

Mortis was spending nearly all of his time with Azure, which was a good thing in Gravis' mind. Gravis knew how it felt to be in love, and he wasn't angry with Mortis. After all, Gravis had also spent a lot of time with Stella back then while Mortis was comprehending more Laws.

This was the first time that Mortis didn't focus on power, which showed that Mortis finally had found something that he found more important.

Mortis finally found happiness.

From what it looked like, Azure and Mortis were a perfect couple, and they were constantly with each other.

Mortis had even once come to Gravis and had thanked him sincerely for giving him the chance to experience life again. The old Mortis had decided to sacrifice himself for Gravis, but the new Mortis couldn't imagine sacrificing himself for anything.

Gravis only smiled brightly and told Mortis that there was nothing to be thanked for.

After Gravis had comprehended the Law of Stone, he had also directly finished the level seven Law of Pure Elements, which allowed Gravis' Law of the Dead World to use the Pure Elements instead of the Mixed Elements.

For Gravis, this didn't make a difference. The Mixed Elements could be pushed to the power of a level seven Law, and they would only have trouble in becoming more powerful after that. For example, Stella had the Law of the Dead World as her Avatar, which gave it the power of a level eight Law. However, the Mixed Elements could only be pushed to the power of a level 7.5 Law.

Meanwhile, if Stella had the level seven Law of Pure Elements, the Elements could be pushed to the power of a level eight Law, and they could even be strengthened further to the power of a level 8.5 Law. Of course, there wasn't actually a way to push these Elements any further without the True Law of the Dead World or the Major Law of the True World.

It had taken a while, but Gravis had finally finished the level seven Law of the Pure Elements.

The next Law Gravis was focused on was the level seven Law of Temperatures, which also required the level six Laws of Heat and Cold.

Sadly, the Myriad Sect only had access to a Law Comprehension Area for the level six Law of Heat. Gravis would need to go somewhere else for the level six Law of Cold.

Comprehending the level six Law of Heat only took Gravis 10,000 years, which was incredibly fast for a level six Law. This was one of the reasons why Gravis had focused on the level seven Law of Pure Elements. Nearly everything physical was derived from the Elements in some way, and knowing everything about the Elements would make it far easier to comprehend related Laws.
