"Neutral," Arc said."So, neither good nor bad," Gravis answered.Arc nodded. "It isn't the worst case, but also not the best case for him," Arc said.
Gravis furrowed his brows as he looked to the ground. "This means that there might really be something that the highest Heavencan do against Elements. It's possible that Mortis will be useless against the highest Heaven."
"Possible," Arc said.
“However, if that is true, | dodged a bullet,” Gravis said. "| specifically traveled the path of lightning to fight the highest Heaven inthe future. | believed that countering its strongest Element would give me the best shot."
“And it's true. The path of lightning has allowed me to kill the lower Heaven, and it also gave me a chance against the middleHeaven, even if that chance was minuscule. It will also protect me against your Lightning Laws in the future, and it should alsoprotect me against the highest Heaven's Lightning Laws in the future."
“However, following the lightning path and being lightning are two different things. If | had remained as | was, | might have beenhelpless against the highest Heaven."
Gravis looked towards the horizon. "No wonder the highest Heaven always supported me as soon as my Spirit became attunedto lightning.”
“| was never a danger to it, even if | would have reached my father's level in the future.”Arc smiled. "But that has changed, hasn't it?"
Gravis nodded. "Yes. | am no longer comprised of any Laws that the highest Heaven has created. | am now made up ofsomething completely new. Yet, | still retain my ability to absorb all kinds of lightning."
“Now, if | become as powerful as father in the future, | will actually be a danger.”
"Yet," Gravis said as he furrowed his brows. "What appears to be the best solution for me is only neutral for the highest Heaven.This means that it might use Mortis against me in the future, and if Mortis and | fight, there is a high chance that we will both die.In that sense, | would still not be a danger to it.”
“Are you dead set on fighting my creator?" Arc asked.novelbin
"No," Gravis directly answered. "| am going through all these eventualities just to be safe. | have forgiven the highest Heaven forwhat it has done to my childhood friend back then, and it hasn't gone against me ever since. As long as it doesn't go against me,| have no reason to fight it."
“However, this is the status quo for now. If nothing changes, everything will be fine, but I'm nearly certain that the highest Heavenwill try something in the future. | don't believe that someone that kept my father suppressed for 50 billion years would just allowme to become powerful enough to oppose it. Something like that doesn't seem to fit its personality."
"So, in short, as long as my creator doesn't become the aggressor, you won't fight," Arc said.Gravis nodded.
"So, you're ready to die?" Arc asked with a bitter smile.
Gravis looked with furrowed brows at Arc. "What do you mean?"
"Do you think you're able to survive if my creator actually makes a move on you?" Arc asked. "Do you think he will strike as longas he is not 100% sure that you will die?"
Gravis took a deep breath. "Probably not," he said. "If the highest Heaven makes its move, | will probably die.""Then, what will you do?" Arc asked.
"| can only prepare myself for every eventuality," Gravis said. "| can only rely on my father as long as I'm not on his level yet. If itdecides to strike early, he is the only one that can resist it. However, when I'm on my father's level, everything will change."
"When will he strike?" Arc asked with interest."| don't know," Gravis said."Will he strike?"
"Honestly, | also don't know," Gravis said. "No one is able to see through the highest Heaven's personality. Even my father can'tforesee its actions. There is even a possibility that it might actually just want me to become powerful.”
"There's a possibility that it will let me grow and do whatever | want. It knows that | won't go against it as long as it doesn't goagainst me. Not going against me is also a form of protection for itself. It could let me grow and then just forever ignore me like |don't exist, and | won't come into conflict with it."
“Like that, the current status quo will continue. It will be the highest Heaven versus my father. | would be a neutral party in all ofthis," Gravis said.
"Difficult, huh?" Arc asked with a smile.
"It really is difficult," Gravis said. "| managed to gauge the personalities of the three Heavens | came into contact with prettyquickly, but | still have no idea what the highest Heaven is actually thinking."
"Is it someone that chases control and wants to suppress everything that is a danger to it? Possible."
"Is it someone that is stuck in a shitty situation because someone that it ignored has become so powerful that they can kill it, andit only wants to survive? Possible."
"Is it someone who values justice and only goes against those that goes against it? Also possible."
"| honestly have no idea. | can't even trust father when he talks about the highest Heaven since he is biased for obvious reasons.It's really difficult.”
"That's all | wanted to hear," Arc said with a smile."What exactly?" Gravis asked.
"| wanted to make sure that you don't jump to conclusions," Arc said. "Keep every possibility in your mind and try to readyyourself for every possibility."
“Because there is a high chance that if you concentrate on one possibility, my creator will do something completely different justto throw you off. He's the smartest being in existence, and he basically knows everything. Trying to scheme against him isimpossible. The only thing you can do is prepare yourself against every eventuality," Arc explained.
Gravis nodded. "I will. Thanks, Arc."
Arc only smiled without saying anything.
“By the way," Gravis added as he remembered something. "How did you come up with the idea to use Yi Lu?"
"Oh, that?" Arc asked with a smirk. "It's actually rather simple. Want to know how | went about finding you an opponent?"
Gravis became interested. "Sure."
"First, | checked through all the candidates that could theoretically arrive at your location without violently changing their actions.There were a couple, but | chose Eran. Want to know why?"
Gravis nodded. "Yes, please."
“Because you haven't fought a powerful Space Cultivator before."
Gravis blinked a couple of times in surprise. "That's it?"
"Yeah, that's it," Arc said with a smirk. "| wanted to give you a new kind of opponent."Gravis nodded.
"Anyway, after | decided on youropponent, | needed to find a way foryou or Siral to kil hig arandaductiter.However yau'guys have no reason tokill her. After all, she's too weak. So, |needed to introduce someone closethat you would want to save." Thecontent is on NovelDrama.Org! Readthe latest chapter there!
"That's when you thought of Yi Lu?" Gravis asked.
Arc nodded. "His personality is quitecompatible with yours, which makeshim very incompatible wpithite SebtOongredation’ the SectCongregation is like the Sect Alliance.They are all about respect, schemes,politics, rules, and so on." Thecontent is on NovelDrama.Org! Readthe latest chapter there!
"So, in the end, | only needed to allow Yi Lu to become powerful enough to kill the son of the granddaughter of Eran. That's it.”
“You make it sound so simple," Gravis said. "However, from my point of view, it sounds like you went through a ton of gambles.How could you guarantee that everything would come to pass just how you planned it?"
"Gravis," Arc said with a smile. "I'vebeen doing this for quite some time.After a while, you "s pavea fedlingf ifa planworks rnot. When youflip a coin, it's a gamble, but if youcan perfectly calculate the wind, airresistance, the force of the flip, andso on, it's not a gamble anymore."The content is on NovelDrama.Org!Read the latest chapter there!
"Don't forget that | know the Law of the True World. | know what every human in this world will do years in advance."Instead of being impressed, Gravis only smirked. "Except me, right?"Arc smiled bitterly. "Yes, except you. Your entire being is outside my scope of understanding."
Gravis chuckled a bit. Not even the Black Magnate had been able to foresee Gravis' actions, and the Black Magnate knew themost powerful version of the Law of the True World.
Arc was incredibly powerful, but even he didn't count for anything in front of the Black Magnate.
