Chapter 587: The Fighting Ends (1/2)
All the beasts looked at the space where the Inferno Immortal had vanished with respect and reverence. Every beast had the dream to become an Ascender, and he had managed to achieve their dream. How long until they could become Ascenders?
The Ultimates also watched the spot with envy, except for Meadow and Sary. After all, they could become Ascenders whenever they wanted.
SHING! SHING! SHING!
Well, and except these other two. The Water Ultimate and the white snake were still fighting. They had no time to be distracted. Otherwise, their opponent might grab this opportunity and kill them.
By now, only these two were still fighting while everyone watched. This was their fight, and no one would get involved.
The fight had been going for quite a while, and the Water Ultimate became more nervous as the time passed. The white snake had already loaded an incredible amount of light into her attack, and she would soon unleash it.
This was now do or die for the Water Ultimate. If she didn't manage to comprehend a level three Law, she would die to the white snake.
Ten minutes later, it was finally time.
The white snake unloaded all her gathered light into a concentrated beam that shot at the Water Ultimate. The Water Ultimate had comprehended the Law of Danger, which was why she knew that the attack was coming. Yet, she also knew that she couldn't evade anymore.
Her life flashed before her eyes as all her insights gathered together, and in comparison to the two sea beast Ultimates that hadn't managed to comprehend a level three Law, she achieved it.
SSSSSS!
The light beam froze and became an icicle that shot through the Water Ultimate's torso. Yet, since the heat of the light had vanished, the Water Ultimate managed to survive.
Now, it was the time for the white snake to become panicked. The Water Ultimate had comprehended the water equivalent to Punishment Lightning, which was the Sheer Cold.
The Water Ultimate turned with cold eyes to the white snake and unleashed a wave of supremely cold Energy at her. If she didn't manage to evade, she would die!
WHOOOM!
The wave passed, but the white snake had vanished. Everyone was surprised when they saw that the white snake had vanished. Yet, their senses quickly told them where she was.
Quite a distance away, the white snake floated with light shining around her. She hadn't comprehended the light equivalent to Punishment Lightning, but she managed to comprehend a different level three Law. This was the Law of Light's Speed.
This Law didn't allow her to truly reach the speed of light, but it allowed her to become incredibly fast. She was even faster than Meadow!
Yet, this was only natural. Meadow had comprehended the Law of Supreme Speed, which was a non-elemental Law. On top of that, Meadow was a plant, and plants weren't the fastest beings.
The Law of Supreme Speed didn't cost any Energy to perform, which was why it wasn't as fast as the Law of Light's Speed. Yet, one could use the Law of Supreme Speed indefinitely until they ran out of stamina, which would take a very long time for beasts.
Due to all these reasons, the white snake was now even faster than Meadow.
The Water Ultimate looked at the white snake with narrowed eyes as she realized that her opponent also managed to comprehend a level three Law.
Yet, instead of continuing to attack, the Water Ultimate's expression turned to a warm smile. ”Congratulations! We can now both become Ascenders,” she said.
The white snake was a bit surprised when she heard the Water Ultimate's words, but she quickly realized what the Water Ultimate meant. They had both comprehended a level three Law, which meant that there was no reason for them to continue fighting.
Both of them had already unleashed all their potential and comprehension in the fight. This meant that none of the two would be able to learn another Law in this fight. The only payout they would get from killing their opponent would be food, nothing more.
Yet, why go to that trouble? They could simply kill the Striders now, which was way less dangerous.
The white snake released a sigh as she relaxed. ”Yes, there's no reason for us to continue fighting,” she said.
