Chapter 357

Gravis spent two whole weeks with his mother, just talking about everything. He had needed this breather and talk. He hadconfronted his emotions and had accepted the pain. By now, he felt much better, and he also felt like a constant pressure, whichhe hadn't noticed before, had disappeared.

Laughing came way easier, and it also felt deeper. When he thought back on his journey in the lower world, it felt to him like itwas in his distant past. It felt like this had been done by a younger him, even though he had still been there two weeks ago.

He accepted the deaths that he had caused, but this wouldn't stop his path. He didn't want to hurt innocent people, but heaccepted that this was just a reality of becoming powerful. Sometimes, even if he didn't want to hurt or kill them, it just happenedbecause of something that he was doing.

Gravis wasn't some saint that wanted to keep the world pure. He just wanted to achieve his goal. If he could avoid it, he wouldn'timplicate others, but that couldn't always be avoided. Gravis felt his path to power to be as clear and stable as never before. Hewould reach his goal, no matter what it took!

He also thought about all the pain he had caused by fighting Heaven. Yet, if Gravis knew what his fight would have brought, hewould have still gone through with it. His enmity with Heaven was more important to him.

After his long talk with his mother, Gravis visited his brother Orpheus. In comparison to his parents, Orpheus didn't knowanything about Gravis' journey in the lower world, so he was very interested in Gravis’ story.

Gravis told his story to his brother, and Orpheus listened with bated breath. He said that a lot of things had been similar to hisjourney in his lower world, but there were also a lot of differences.

When Orpheus had visited his lower world, he only had to deal with his lack of Karmic Luck. The Heaven of that world didn't goafter him. This made his journey still difficult, but not nearly as much as Gravis’.

Heaven basically had all the power in the world, so it had been able to send stuff at Gravis that he shouldn't have been able todeal with. A good example of that was Aion's visit to Proxy-Lightning Guild or the way more powerful lightning disciples at thetree.

When one only looked at the numbers, one would come to the conclusion that Gravis would die. Yet, he had managed to squirmhis way out of these situations. These situations hadn't required a powerful combat strength, but intelligence.

If Gravis hadn't been able to simulate a Heavenly Pressure so well, Aion would have killed him, and if he hadn't kept anadditional beast corpse ready, the lightning disciples would have killed him. Another such incident was Aion's meeting with Gravisat the Wind Wall. If Gravis hadn't planned everything beforehand, he would have also died then.

Strength was the most important thing, but if one didn't have enough strength, they needed to find something else that allowedthem to turn the tide. Luckily, Gravis had the required intelligence.

The fight against elder Red and the priest from the Heaven Sect had been especially hard. In both cases, Gravis had a wayhigher chance of dying than surviving. Only his creativity with his power allowed him to win against these two opponents.novelbin

If Gravis told these things to others, they initially might not believe him. It just seemed to be too insane. Yet, his powerful Will-Aura gave credibility to his tales. If Gravis didn't survive so many mortal dangers, he wouldn't have such a powerful Will-Aura.

Orpheus especially praised Gravis' Will-Aura. He said that it was the most powerful one he had ever seen in relation to hisRealm. Though, the circumstances of the lower and highest world also played a part in that.

In the lower world, everyone only tempered themselves enough to achieve ascension. Why would there be a reason to risk theirlives further if the peak of power, which they could comprehend, was already in reach?

In comparison, cultivation in the highest world was way faster. Due to the abundance of resources and Energy, people stayedinside their Realms for shorter periods of time. On top of that, Orpheus told Gravis something else about the highest world thatsurprised him quite a bit.

Apparently, not all cultivation paths required a Will-Aura. There was a mountain of techniques that bypassed the Will-Aurarequirement, allowing people to reach a higher Realm way sooner. Additionally, many of the cultivation techniques also bypassedthe resting period for tempering someone's Spirit.

Orpheus told Gravis that the path of requiring a Will-Aura was called the Will Forging Path. It was the most original path and alsothe first one. People that didn't follow that path had basically no bottlenecks for the first five Realms.

Going through the Body Tempering Realm was easy since it only required resources. Same thing with the Energy GatheringStage. With different cultivation techniques, people could also convert resources into tempering for their Spirits.

After that, they had a powerful body, a powerful dantian, and a powerful Spirit. Thus, achieving Unity also wasn't an issue. Afterall, the cultivation techniques bypassed the need for a Will-Aura.

Apparently, there were many Unity Realm cultivators that didn't even reach the age of ten. They were simply just kids that hadbeen pumped full of resources. This seemed unreal to Gravis. There were small kids out there that were in the same Realm ashim?

Reaching the Nascent Nourishing Realm was, of course, also not hard for these children. It only needed time and resources. Butafter that, the required background for the kids became higher.

In order to reach the next Realm, they needed to understand some things about the laws. Something like that couldn't be solvedwith resources. On top of that, the kids, who had not achieved much by themselves, had not nearly enough experience with theworld and their own power to grasp something as elusive as laws.

The only way to make them grasp the laws was to teach them slowly. Of course, different kids had different affinities for differentthings. So, they couldn't just learn any law. It had to fit perfectly with them. So, they needed a teacher that grasped these specificlaws. Finding such a teacher was difficult and expensive.

The further the kids progressed, the harder it was to help them. At one point, there was basically nothing that anyone could do.This meant that these people would never achieve another breakthrough again.

They could theoretically temper themselves for a ridiculous amount of time to get back to the same level as someone that wentthrough the Will Forging Path, but there was an issue. Tempering required genuine danger. The family had already invested somany resources, so it was impossible for these cultivators to temper themselves. Their family or organization wouldn't allow it.

Of course, the good came with the bad. These people had an easy way to a relatively high Realm, but they were veryinexperienced in fights. On top of that, the lack of a Will-Aura made them especially weak to one.

Orpheus told Gravis that with his current Will-Aura and Realm, he could completely immobilize one of these cultivators in themiddle Stage of the Nascent Nourishing Realm. This was a jump of one and a half major Realms, and it wouldn't even be a fight!

Of course, there were some very elusive methods that allowed people to even become immortals, but that required a verypowerful background. One shouldn't forget that even the Opposer couldn't make someone become more powerful than theImmortal Emperor Realm. Anyone else wouldn't even be able to push someone to that Realm.

The Opposer was the only person that could make people reach the Immortal Emperor Realm. Everyone else was stuck in theImmortal Realm. There was one Realm between an Immortal and Immortal Emperor, and it was called the Immortal King Realm.

Only people in the publicly accepted highest Realm in the highest world could make someone reach it. These were the rulers,hegemons, and deities of the highest world. They controlled everything.

Of course, that was if one ignored Gravis’ father.

On top of that, there basically didn'texist anyone that had been pushed

Because of these things, the practically strongest Realm achievable for people not following the Will Forging Path was theImmortal Realm. At that point, they would be completely stuck.

After talking about this topic, Orpheus also told him his Realm.Orpheus was a Star God.

Orpheus also joked about the factthat there currently were fewer StarGods than the Real egningatter

Orpheus also told him that he was the third strongest of all their siblings. His power was also the reason why he was in such ahigh position inside his company.

"Speaking of our siblings," Gravissaid. "Do they still not want to meetme?" he asked, un ysed Back

When Orpheus heard that, he sighed. "Well, | might not have told you the whole truth," he said.

Gravis lifted an eyebrow. "Yes?" he asked slowly.

"Yes, a lot of them don't want to meet you because of your risk of death, but that's only about 10% of our siblings," he explained."And the others?" Gravis asked.

"Well, when you have so many siblings, the feeling of family kind of vanishes. We are related by blood, but most of us don't careabout our family," he said.
