Chapter 973: True Power (1/2)
Gravis closed his eyes to take a deep breath as the sensation of his new Form Law of the Saber washed through his being.
'It's so powerful,' Gravis thought. 'A Form Law is normally only supposed to give someone the same power as the level five Law of Physical Power.'
'Yet…'
Gravis looked down at his saber.
'This is so much more powerful.'
Since Gravis had comprehended the Law, he understood what powers this Law could unleash.
How strong was it?
Gravis' Form Law of the Saber was composed of 14 different element-specific level five Laws and three Emotional Laws. This was already more than enough to condense a level six Law, but not enough to make a level seven Law. After all, Form Laws only took parts of Laws, not the entire thing.
So, Gravis' Form Law of the Saber had reached the power of a level six Law.
While it sounded impressive on the surface, just describing the Form Law like this wouldn't make it justice.
Yes, the Form Law had the power of a level six Law. That was true.
Yet, exactly that was the terrifying thing.
Form Laws were not Laws that someone used by using Energy. No, Form Laws were used passively without any Energy cost. After all, it was just a specific way of movement.
In short, unleashing this Form Law cost absolutely nothing but just some physical stamina.
Yet, it was able to unleash the power of a level six Law.
This meant that every single casual attack of Gravis now had the power of a level six Law.
Just with his saber alone, Gravis could slice through the body of a beast four levels above him. He needed no lightning, no Elements, nothing.
Even more, the Form Law could also be combined with all of Gravis' other Laws since it didn't take up a spot inside Gravis' saber.
The combinations could become terrifyingly powerful.
'If Mortis had had this Law, the Black Demon would have died to his two Lightning Crescents,' Gravis thought.
Gravis glanced once more at the split horizon, which was slowly regenerating itself.
Gravis still remembered how Eran had also managed to achieve something like that. However, the power between Eran's attack and Gravis' attack was monumentally different.
Gravis smiled a bit.
SHING!
Then, he swung his saber casually.
In an instant, everything in a straight line for over 10,000 kilometers had been cut apart.
Nothing could withstand the power of a level six Law!
'I have come this far, huh?' Gravis thought with a surreal feeling. 'I can destroy thousands of kilometers with but a wave of my hand. I don't even need to use any Energy.'
Gravis thought back about his life and his power.
In the beginning, he was just a bit more powerful than a mortal.
Then, he managed to destroy several meters with his attacks in the Energy Gathering Realm.
When he got his Lightning Crescent, he managed to destroy the peak of a normal mountain in the lower world.
In the Unity Realm, he already could destroy hundreds of meters.
In the Nascent Nourishing Realm, his power of destruction reached kilometers.
In the Law Comprehension Realm, it became nearly a hundred kilometers.
As an Immortal, Gravis nearly managed to destroy a thousand kilometers with his Lightning Crescent.
As an Immortal King, Gravis had already destroyed thousands of kilometers with his Lightning Crescent.
Now, Gravis could destroy over ten thousand kilometers with but a wave of his hand.
'Power, huh?' Gravis thought as he looked at his hand.
'It does feel nice.'
Then, Gravis started grinning widely.
'But not as good as my honey!'
Then, Gravis took out his Life Ring. ”Hey, honey. Sorry that I'm only calling you now. Condensing my Form Law took longer than expected.”
”It's okay,” Stella answered with a reassuring voice. ”So, are you done?” She asked with hope.
”Yes, I am,” Gravis answered with a wide smile. ”Want me to come over right now?”
”Yes, please,” Stella said with excitement.
Then, she cut the connection.
Gravis had to chuckle a bit.
After that, Gravis left the beast territory and went towards the eastern continent.
While doing so, Gravis absorbed a ton of Immortal Stones.
Gravis had never been in the Purist Sect, and he wanted to be sure that nothing would be going wrong. Because of that, Gravis decided to become a Peak Immortal King first.
The breakthrough was already finished before Gravis even left the beast territory.
What he didn't know was that Narcissus was paying close attention to him.
'His growth speed is terrifying,' Narcissus thought. 'He might even be able to fight Early Major Circulation Immortal Emperors as a mere Immortal King. This is already beyond impossible.'
'As a mere Immortal King, he already eclipses my Law Comprehension by a terrifying amount.'
Narcissus wasn't certain what he should feel right now.
Narcissus had been one of the most powerful beings in this world. The only beings stronger than him were Exar and Arc, but Exar had already left. On top of that, one couldn't really count Arc since he was an ancient being.
So, Narcissus was basically the most powerful being in this world right now.
Yet, the only thing that stopped Gravis from being more powerful than Narcissus was a session of absorbing Immortal Stones.
If Gravis wanted, he could become the most powerful being in this world in less than a day.
Should Narcissus feel inferior?
Should he feel threatened?
Should he feel proud?
Narcissus wasn't certain.
Usually, Narcissus put a ton of weight on power, and when someone was more powerful than Narcissus, he felt inferior.
