Lightning Is the Only Way

BANG!

Suddenly, the world broke apart as the isolating Formation Array vanished around Gravis.

The members of the Life Sect looked with nervousness at the area where Gravis had just fought.

Everything had happened so suddenly that they all had had no opportunity to even react. They had just been going through life, and suddenly, explosions had occurred.

Most of the people hadn't even been able to do anything before the Core Elder and the intruder had clashed.

They had realized that their Core Plant had died when the fight between Gravis and the Core Elder had ended, but before they could react, the Ancestor had returned, and another fight broke out.

Now, the fight had ended in only about two seconds, and the members only hoped that their Ancestor had won.

Yet, when they saw Gravis and Mortis, their fear turned into panic, and they all began to flee in different directions.

WHOOOOM!

Yet, Gravis' Will-Aura got activated, and the entire Sect turned quiet again.

At this moment, Gravis' Will-Aura was still strengthening, but with the addition of the True Law of Suppression, no one could resist Gravis' Will-Aura regardless.

After all, the strongest members currently inside the True Life Sect were level six Divine Gods.

And Gravis?

After absorbing the Ancestor, Gravis had also reached the sixth level of the Divine God Realm.

The members of the True Life Sect had realized that they had been caught.

There was nothing they could do anymore.

Begging?

Only mortals and weak Cultivators thought of begging for their lives. It wasn't that they felt themselves above such actions, but that it was simply useless. Every Cultivator that had reached such a level had long since gotten used to killing people, even if they were innocent.

Discussing?

In such a situation, that would be just as useless. None of the members were ignorant kids. They had all lived for millions of years, and they all knew how the world worked.

You only followed orders?

You didn't know the truth?

You were afraid of me, so you wanted to kill me?

All of these arguments that were used by mortals to absolve one of guilt and wrongdoing didn't work at this level.

Everyone knew exactly how everything had played out. None of them had been born yesterday, and they could all see through the political intricacies.

If they didn't want to go against Gravis, they could have simply not searched for him. None of the Peak Sects forced their members to do something against their will. Because, if they did, that member would very quickly run to another Peak Sect.

Restricting the members' freedom? Same thing. They would simply go to another Peak Sect before that restriction even took effect.

So, all of these members knew exactly what they had done and why they had done it.

They had been complicit.

Gravis' eyes went over the members of the True Life Sect, studying them closely.
