Chapter 604: The Immortals (1/2)

Meadow was shocked when she heard that.

”Stop shitting me. Are you for real?” Meadow asked. ”He did that as a level five King?”

Sary nodded with a smile. ”The power of his attack also shocked me. I think this is probably the single most powerful attack anyone has ever created in this world. It isn't easy for him to hit with the attack, but if he manages to do it, he will kill anyone that's four levels higher than him.”

Sary looked at the Grand Lake. ”I have seen the Inferno Immortal, and I'm certain that if Gravis were a level four Emperor, that attack would kill him instantly. Of course, he has to hit first. The attack takes quite a lot of wind-up time.”

The small flower turned to Gravis. ”Fuck, dude. That's really impressive,” she said.

Gravis only continued smiling. ”I'm quite happy with it. This attack is the pinnacle of what I can achieve in terms of offense since it combines all of my offensive Laws into one. Sadly, I'm still not fast enough to hit a beast four levels above me.”

”Are you actually intending to jump four levels above yourself?” Meadow asked. ”That's something not even I can do. I can barely achieve three levels, and four are simply impossible.”

Gravis scratched his chin. ”If I can push my offense to such a limit, I may also be able to push my speed to the same level. Of course, I can't do that yet, but I intend to stay a level five King until I can do that.”

”Shit, son, do you have any idea how long that will take?” Meadow asked.

”A couple hundred years probably,” Gravis said. Then, he smirked at Meadow. ”Actually, it was you who gave me that idea.”

”Shut the fuck up! Now you're blaming your shit decision on me?” Meadow said with some mock-offense.

”Yeah, I will do just that, and there's nothing you can do about it,” Gravis said with a chuckle. ”But seriously, I saw your idea of remaining in this world to hone your Battle-Strength, and I felt like it was a brilliant idea. The more powerful I become now, the better my chances of becoming more powerful will be in the higher world.”

WHACK!

Gravis slightly got thrown to the side by a root. ”I have become immune to your pathetic attacks, boy!” Meadow said. ”Your level three Law of being a Little Bitch doesn't work on me anymore. Your offense lacks variety!”

Gravis only chuckled. He enjoyed talking to Meadow. Meadow had deflected his compliment, but she couldn't hide her embarrassment in front of Gravis. He knew that his comment had touched her.

”Just wait,” Gravis said as he dusted himself off. ”At some point, your slaps won't work against me anymore.”

Meadow huffed. ”Don't act like you don't enjoy it when I slap your shit,” she said.

Gravis only smirked. ”Just wait some hundred years,” Gravis said with a smirk.

BANG!

And just then, the Light Ultimate killed her first Strider. The Strider fell over as the earth trembled under its mighty weight.

The Ultimates didn't really care since the Light Ultimate basically already lived in a different world. She would soon leave this world and never return.

Yet, one of them felt something different. ”Sorry, but I can't wait anymore,” the blue swallow said as she stood up.

Whoosh!

Then, she shot at another Strider. In comparison to the Light Ultimate, the Water Ultimate killed the Strider far faster. Her Law of Supreme Cold didn't need any charging time, and she took it down in a matter of seconds.

After some minutes, the Water Ultimate had already killed her third Strider while the Light Ultimate was still busy charging her next attack.

”All this excitement brings me back to my youth,” Sary said from the side. ”I think I will partake in the festivities for once.”

BANG!

Sary also shot at another Strider. Since Heaven always kept the number of Striders topped up, there was no competition between the different Ultimates. There were enough Striders for everyone.

Sary closed in on her first Strider, and her body started to turn into dust. Yet, her level three Law of Energy Healing allowed her to heal herself faster than her body was breaking down. Sadly, since she still needed to physically beat down her Strider, the Water Ultimate was still faster.

This was the difference between having an elemental affinity and not having one. The instantaneous power output with an element was higher than without one, but the Energy and stamina consumption was also far higher.

The Water Ultimate from the sea beasts, the Lightning Ultimate, and the Metal Ultimate looked on in envy as the three other Ultimates killed one Strider after the other. Half of the Ultimates, excluding Meadow, were about to achieve their lifelong dream. They would reach the next world. When would it be their time?

As far as the Ultimates knew, something as significant as this had never happened before. There had always been an equilibrium between the Ultimates.

There had always been more land beast Ultimates than sea beasts Ultimates, which was the biggest reason why the sea only made up a quarter of the central territories of the world. Yet, these past few years, everything had changed.

In the beginning, there had been ten Ultimates in total.

One of them had become the ruler of all beasts, no matter if they were land beasts or sea beasts, which left nine Ultimates.
