Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis and Arc talked about many different things for a long time, but eventually, Gravis left.

It was nice to see Arc again, and Gravis felt quite proud of his new power.

Gravis still remembered how he had evaluated Arc's Battle-Strength back in the higher world.

At that time, Gravis hadn't been that long in the higher world, and he had thought about how powerful Arc had been. Back then, Arc already had access to the Major Law of the True World and the Law of Heavenly Lightning. This meant that he had had access to at least two level nine Laws.

When Gravis had thought about these things, he had just become an Immortal King, and he hadn't even comprehended a level five Law yet.

A ton of level four Laws versus at least two level nine Laws.

The difference couldn't be overstated.

Defeating Arc while being on the same level had seemed absolutely impossible.

And now?

Now, Gravis could fight Arc equally.

He had made the impossible possible.

On the path of Battle-Strength, Gravis had walked past all the Cultivators to reach the illustrious Heavens. Then, he had walked past them and stood at Arc's side at the very front.

Only the Opposer and Orthar were left in the distance.

There was nothing between Gravis and the two of them.

This would be the last sprint.

'But for now, I have to visit someone else,' Gravis thought with a smirk.

Gravis left the Darkest Stygian Sect and traveled back to the Eternal Fire Sect.

When Gravis reached the border of the Eternal Fire Sect, a couple of Ancestral Gods looked at him, but they didn't stop him.

They didn't even interact with him.
