Chapter 512: Ironic (1/2)

Gravis' will and lightning manifested as it heard its oath. His lightning went wild and showed its support. Lightning struck everything that came close to it, and this Heaven had dared to suppress it!

Gravis' Will-Aura exploded as he created this solemn vow. He was not swearing on the name of anyone else, which was different from how normal cultivators swore oaths. Gravis had sworn on his life, and his lightning would force him to uphold this oath.

Even if this Heaven would kill every single loved one in Gravis' life, he would still be forced to fight it or perish. His lightning would never allow him to back out of an oath, no matter what happened. Even if this Heaven begged on all of its limbs and gave Gravis supreme power, if he let it live, he would still be forced to attack it.

Gravis had never sworn such an oath before in his life. He knew his lightning and himself very well, and he knew that such oaths couldn't be sworn lightly. Only when there was a very good reason would he go through with something so consequential.

In an ironic sense, Gravis suppressed himself with this oath. He would be forced to do whatever he had sworn now with no way out. Yet, if this oath managed to temper himself more, he would only become more powerful. Gravis wanted to force himself into killing this Heaven, no matter what happened.

BOOOOM!

Gravis' Will-Aura exploded as it spread into the distance. All level three Kings and weaker in a 500-kilometer-radius felt the immense pressure exhibited by Gravis' Will-Aura.

With his rage and oath, Gravis managed to push his Will-Aura across the border, separating it from the next level.

CRRRRR!

The earth and mountains in his surroundings cracked and crumbled as his Will-Aura shook them.

Yet, instead of paying any attention towards his new, powerful Will-Aura, Gravis' mind was focused on something else. Surprisingly, it even didn't pay any attention to Heaven right now.

Gravis' mind was going wild as concepts he had understood previously fused together into one. He was understanding something crucial!

Many of Gravis' past experiences gathered together to form one whole concept. This concept was a Law! Additionally, this Law was something very few living beings managed to comprehend.

Different beings had different experiences, which taught them different, new concepts. Nearly Gravis' entire life revolved around him wanting freedom due to him being suppressed by the different Heavens.

Gravis' rage vanished as it was fully focused on comprehending right now. He had just grasped something integral, and he would use this chance to understand a new Law.

After half a minute, Gravis managed to combine a lot of his known concepts into a single Law.

”Hahahaha!” Gravis laughed.

Yet, his laugh didn't sound happy. His laugh sounded more like someone who had one bad thing after the other happen to them. He laughed at the irony of his current situation.

”What irony,” Gravis said silently with a bitter smile after some seconds. ”My goal is freedom, and I want nothing more than to be free and do what I want. Yet…”

”I've comprehended the Law of Suppression.”

Gravis never wanted to suppress anyone. He wanted freedom, and since he valued freedom so much, he also wanted everyone else to gain freedom. Gravis never wanted to suppress someone. It was only killing, neutral interactions, friendly interaction, or no interaction at all with others.

Suppression.

How many different kinds of suppression were there?

One could say that there was only one kind of suppression, which was the suppression someone stronger had over someone weaker. Yet, that was not true.

Someone could be blackmailed. The blackmailer might not be more powerful than the person, but they had something that managed to suppress others emotionally. Gravis had experienced this kind of suppression in the lower world when the lower Heaven had forced him to stay alone.
