Chapter 763: Opponents Shocked (1/2)
'Stella, huh?' Gravis thought. 'I haven't heard that name in a long time.'
Gravis fell into a reverie for a second but quickly recovered.
'There are so many humans. Of course there will be duplicate names. Just because she has the same name doesn't mean that she has anything to do with my dead childhood friend. It doesn't matter.'
The Formation Array around them sprung to life as everything around them was isolated. Only Immortal Kings had the power to break the Formation Array. Others could only watch the fight.
These measures were essential to keep the fights fair. If any other member from one of the Sects stayed close to the fighting area, they might become involved or distract the fighters, making the fight unfair.
This Formation Array would only vanish when either one of them was dead or if they both agreed to stop fighting. As long as one person still wanted to fight, the Formation Array wouldn't vanish.
SHING!
Stella took out her saber and swung it once, creating a burning wind that destroyed the ground below her.
”Come!” she shouted with power.
Their Will-Auras clashed against each other, warping the surroundings and shaking the earth. The higher world was far more stable than the middle world, but the resistance of the surrounding materials could only be pushed so high. As soon as Immortals fought, the area would become decimated.
Gravis took out his own saber.
He didn't show any display of power and only looked at Stella.
CRRRRR!
The inside of the Formation Array started to freeze. The ground, rivers, and the air started to turn blue as a layer of frost encased them.
Stella narrowed her eyes further. ”The Law of Cold with the Law of Temperatures,” she said. ”Sure enough, in the fight among the Sects, you have not shown your total power.”
Stella also felt the cold attack her, but her fire element kept the cold at bay. However, there was a difference between Gravis' and her situation. Gravis didn't need to use any Energy to keep the Law of Cold active due to his Law of Temperatures, but Stella needed to use her Energy to keep her fire active.
BRRRRR!
That was until she activated the Law of Heat herself.
Cold and heat hit each other, creating a powerful storm that raged through the Formation Array.
Gravis also narrowed his eyes further as he realized that this strategy of his was countered too. He not only felt the Law of Heat radiating off of Stella, but he also felt the Law of Temperatures.
Stella could also keep the Law of Heat going indefinitely. On top of that, since she was an entire Circulation above Gravis, her Law of Heat was more powerful than Gravis' Law of Cold.
Gravis felt the heat hit his body, but he managed to resist. His Law of Cold still managed to weaken the heat, and with his Fire Laws, Heat Law, and his hidden scales, Gravis managed to resist the heat without receiving any injury. If he were missing any of these Laws, he would slowly melt, weakening him as more time passed.
'She's powerful,' Gravis thought. 'Law of Empathy, Law of Temperatures, Law of Heat, and she probably also has the Law of Inferno as her Avatar. Sure enough, this is far more powerful than that one captain I killed.'
Gravis' Will-Aura was countered by the Law of Empathy. Gravis' Law of Cold was countered by the Law of Heat. Two of his most powerful weapons had been nullified.
BANG!
Gravis' lightning exploded as he shot forward. He couldn't pressure Stella enough to attack, which meant that he had to attack first to gain the initiative.
Stella had already shown two level three Laws that weren't the Law of Space. She definitely was not an average Late Major Circulation Immortal.
Stella also shot at Gravis with surprisingly fast speed. Her speed was definitely superior to what a fire Cultivator should have.
They both swung their sabers to test the other's power.
BOOOOM!
Both sabers hit each other, creating a powerful explosion. None of the weapons were infused with the elements, but the shockwave still created a crater on the ground below them.
Gravis felt his entire body shake as he was thrown into the distance. His saber vibrated, and he felt that the saber couldn't resist many such clashes. His opponent had a saber of equal quality, but her Weapon Laws pushed the saber's power to new heights.
Gravis stopped himself in the air a hundred kilometers away from Stella, his saber still ringing with a high-pitched tone.
Both Gravis and Stella looked at each other with shock.
'My body should be about as powerful as hers, but her body is actually more powerful,' Gravis thought. 'I thought humans all had weak bodies, but she obviously doesn't have a weak body. Her body is actually rather powerful. It isn't nearly as powerful as a beast's body, but it definitely is far more powerful than a human's body.'
Gravis was shocked, but Stella was far more shocked. 'What's going on?' she thought. 'How can his body be so powerful? My body has already nearly reached the limit of what a human can accomplish, but his body's quality is still far superior. His body is more powerful than any body I have ever seen or heard of.'
'She's definitely not simple,' Gravis thought. 'I can't directly confront her in close combat. She has a more powerful body, and I will lose every time I clash with her. This will be more akin to a fight against a beast than a fight against a human.'
'Then, let's change our tactic!'
