Female Novel
Chapter 330
Gravis and the High Priest locked eyes. The High Priest wore the most extravagant robes that Gravis had ever seen. They wereso filled with ornaments, jewelry, and Energy Stones that it seemed incredibly difficult to walk in them. Yet, contrasting hispompous clothing, the priest only carried a single, long, wooden staff with him. That was probably his weapon.
"So, you're the High Priest, huh?" Gravis transmitted to him.
The High Priest narrowed his eyes. The ant before him didn't seem to fear him even a little bit. When had someone not kneeledout of reverence before him? Yet, what did an ant's opinion matter to an elephant?
“And you're the ant that wants to kill father," he sent back with disdain.“Father? | thought Heaven was genderless," Gravis commented nonchalantly.
Gravis' lack of reaction to him was irking the High Priest. "It is. We assign Heaven a gender that we feel most comfortable with.To me, Heaven is my father," he said, his voice echoing throughout the Lightning Sect. He didn't need to use his Spirit tocommunicate with Gravis.
Meanwhile, everyone in the Lightning Sect looked with absolute shock and fear at the flying person. They had never seen theHigh Priest, but they felt like ants beneath him. This was the strongest person in this entire world! Even Lasar was fearful as hewatched him.
Gravis' eyes glimmered. "Interesting," he said, his voice also echoing throughout the Lightning Sect. When the High Priest heardGravis' voice, his eyes narrowed further. This proved that Gravis was still able to move under his Heavenly Pressure.
One had to know that the High Priest exhibited a Heavenly Pressure that was equal to a level three Unity Will. On top of that,there was a strong level suppression between them. This proved that Gravis’ Will-Aura was way more powerful than hisHeavenly Pressure.
"You can still move," the High Priest commented. "| see why you are father's enemy. Yet, what is so interesting about me callingHeaven my father?" he asked. The High Priest seemed to be in control of this whole situation. The way he talked alsobroadcasted this fact to everyone present.
Gravis only continued smirking as he slowly lifted his hand to scratch his chin. "A father is more overbearing than a mother. Thislower Heaven's conduct is definitely more akin to an abusive father than a loving mother. Who would have expected that itsstrongest child would be afraid of its own parent?"
"Insolence!" the High Priest shouted, creating earthquakes that went through the entire Lightning Sect. "How dare you try tounderstand someone as powerful as me!? You don't know anything about my father."
The High Priest's voice also shook Gravis’ body, but his smirk never vanished. "I heard your voice, and that is not the voice of anangry person. That's the voice of someone afraid of being punished.”
The High Priest's insides shook, but he only appeared calm on the outside. "I really don't understand how you can be thisfearless and foolish when confronted with your own death," he said.
Gravis snorted. "My death? Pfft! As if," he said.
The High Priest started getting angry. "Even if you break into the Unity Realm right now, you have no idea how to use your newpowers. There is no way that you can survive. On top of that, your body, Spirit, and Magic need time to become stronger. Whatcan you do in that timeframe?" The High Priest said in disdain.
Gravis smirked again. "The power increase of my centers of power might take a while, but the connection will be establishedinstantly," Gravis said calmly. "As soon as | connect them, | will push everything | have into my body and Spirit. The levelsuppression will vanish at that point, and you will be the suppressed one. On top of that, you can't keep your Heavenly Pressureactive all the time. At that time, | only need to waste some time to get acclimated."
The High Priest's emotions went haywire when he heard that. He didn't have a powerful will since he only borrowed Heaven'sWill. That's why his emotions were so easily influenced. Yet, why did his emotions get riled up when he heard that?
It was because Gravis was right. His tactic would make him survive long enough to get acclimated. Even though the High Priestacted more akin to a spoiled child, he wasn't foolish. He knew that Gravis' Battle-Strength was unprecedented. The High Priestexpected that Gravis could put up a fight even without his centers of power increasing.
The High Priest had the ability to push all his power into his Spirit and destroy the Spirit of others. That was how he had killed thepriests. Yet, Gravis’ will was just too powerful. The will strengthened the Spirit, and the High Priest feared that Gravis couldsurvive that strike. At that point, everything would play out as Gravis had said.
Even Though the High Priest was definitely the more powerful one of the two, it was he who felt nervous. One wrong movewould spell his doom, but on the other hand, if he didn't attack Gravis, and Gravis died to Heaven, Heaven would just destroyhim. Both paths lead to death.
The High Priest released a shaky breath after a couple of seconds. "I see why father is fearful of you," he commented. For the
Gravis only continued smirking. "Speaking of, how and why did you arrive? As far as | know, Heaven shouldn't have been able tocontact you for about five years or so."
For the first time, the High Priest's eyes widened in shock. This had been a secret, and only he knew about this fact! Heaven hadtruly been completely quiet for five years. No matter how much the High Priest prayed or asked for an answer, Heaven neveranswered him.
How could Gravis know that? Was it because he came from a higher world and knew more about Heaven? Were such things nosecrets in the higher worlds?
“How did you know?" he asked with a shaking voice.
Gravis’ smirk never left his face. Now, it seemed like he was the person in control of this entire situation. "Because up to fiveyears ago, this lower Heaven had no one overseeing it. It was like a child alone at home. But five years ago, an actual adultappeared and forced it to follow the rules of the house. Under the adult's supervision, the child can't break the rules."
The High Priest felt his emotions go wild again. What rules? Heaven had to follow rules? "What rules?" he asked.
"It can't contact or interfere with the world directly," Gravis transmitted since he didn't want to implicate the whole Lightning Sect.If they knew Heaven's secrets, they would be in danger. "So, no more talking, no more new Heavenborn, and no more strikingdown of people."
The High Priest started hyperventilating. It was like a whole new world was being opened before his eyes.
Yet, Gravis didn't stop. "This means that it also won't kill you. The worst it can do is steal all your Karmic Luck so that you haveno more luck in your life." Gravis and the High Priest weren't friends, so Gravis didn't care about the consequences of telling theHigh Priest Heaven's secrets.
The High Priest's mind was running as fast as never before. He was thinking about all the eventual things he could do withoutHeaven's constant supervision. Did that mean that nothing was stopping him anymore? He could finally do whatever he wanted?novelbin
Yet, the High Priest quickly shook his head to regain his bearings. Such a thought was too good to be true. Even though Gravishad proven that he knew a lot about Heaven, there was no guarantee that he wasn't lying right now. In the face of death, maybeeven a lightning cultivator would resort to lies.
Though, the High Priest was stillunsure about how to proceed. If heattacked Gravis, there was a hichance that he woud Gd. Get hedidn't alscr Gravis, he could also dieto Heaven.

‘There is no other way,' the High Priest thought with frustration and nervousness. 'I have to take the risk, or | will definitely die!"
Gravis was still smirking, but suddenly, his smirk vanished. His eyes glazed over lifelessly, and his Will-Aura and Spirit vanished.Surprisingly, the same thing also happened to the High Priest. He landed on top of the Lightning Tower with lifeless eyes.
Everyone in the Lightning Sect could move again, but they didn't dare to. This was not a fight that they could interfere in. Eventhough everyone could move again, they still remained silent. Everything was up to Gravis now.
Meanwhile, inside Gravis’ Spirit Space, two people appeared. One of them was Gravis, while the other was the High Priest.
After entering Gravis’ Spirit Space,the High Priest sighed with relief. Hehad pulled it off Seaere vis, mnoticing anything.
