While Black kept swinging his hammer near the World Floor, Red focused on comprehending the Law of Immortal Lightning.
Since Kyle already had a lot of experience with comprehending Immortal Elements, comprehending the Law of Immortal Lightning didn't take as long. In merely 45,000 years, he managed to comprehend the Law of Immortal Lightning.
'Three down, five to go,' Kyle thought as Red moved to the next Law Well.
The next Law Well had several titans made of metal. All of them looked identical, but they barely moved. Naturally, this was Immortal Metal.
After some experiments, Kyle found out how Immortal Metal worked.
The titans' movement speed was tied to his focus. The more he focused on them, the slower they moved. If he didn't look at a titan, it would move with surprising speed.
Just like the other Law Wells for Immortal Elements, the Law Well for Immortal Metal could be extremely dangerous if one didn't use their perception correctly.
When Kyle started his comprehension, Red and Black switched their methods of comprehension again. This time, Red was swinging his hammer inside the Law Well, while Black was focusing on learning more about the Primordial Forces.
Kyle had a lot of experience with comprehending Metal Laws, which was why he gave Black a bit more focus. Nevertheless, he finished comprehending Immortal Metal within another 45,000 years.
'Just a bit more.'
Red traveled to the next Law Well, which was for Immortal Fire. This time, the Law Well didn't create any major figures. Instead, it summoned countless tiny flames, which gathered into a greater flame. It didn't create one existence but formed an existence by combining several tiny existences.
When Kyle saw that, he was reminded of the concept of cells from Earth. Countless tiny living things that created one living thing. However, he also saw similarities to society. Wasn't humanity also just a very big organism that was formed by countless individual humans?
As Kyle sensed his progress on the Primordial Force Laws, he realized that he could dedicate more focus to the Immortal Elements. Together with his experiences of comprehending fire and his increased focus, he managed to finish comprehending the Law within just 35,000 years.
No sane Ascendant would believe anyone if they told them that Kyle could comprehend Level Seven Laws at this speed. Any Ascendant who managed to comprehend a Level Seven Law within fewer than 120,000 years would be heralded as an immense genius. These geniuses had advantages that no other person had, which was why they were called geniuses.
Sadly, these geniuses didn't have access to advantages that Kyle had.
He knew the Major Law of Death. He knew the Law of Karmic Causality. He was a Unique Ascendant, not an Advanced or Fulfilled Ascendant. He had twice the amount of Energy. He knew more Laws than every other Ascendant. He had two Perfected Imposing Laws. He could consume Elemental Energies like an Elemental. He had an Infused Level Nine Law, which increased the power of all of his Aspects.
None of the other Ascendants had these things. Maybe there were a select few Ascendants who had also managed to comprehend the Law of Karmic Causality, but that was it.
'Three left,' Kyle thought before Red went to the Law Well for Immortal Wind. Immortal Wind acted more similarly to Immortal Darkness. It warped space and gravity, and the more one focused on Immortal Wind, the more aggressive and powerful it got. It was almost like Immortal Wind didn't want to be constrained within someone's perception.
Red swung his hammer inside the Immortal Wind, while Black focused on the Primordial Forces. Kyle was getting awfully close to finishing the Primordial Force Laws, which was why 90% of his focus was now on the Immortal Elements.
He finished comprehending Immortal Wind within 35,000 years and went to the next Law Well.
When Red saw the Law Well, he was actually a bit surprised. The figures inside this Law Well were surprisingly lifelike. In all the other Law Wells, the figures had looked similar to each other. Every lightning figure was made of lightning. Every Immortal Earth figure was made of Immortal Earth.
Yet, the figures here were complex. They had solid shells, liquid blood, and created gas. All of these figures swam inside a humongous lake, which was also the Law Well for Immortal Water.
'Water is the closest Element to life,' Kyle thought. 'If any Element can mimic life, it's water.'
As Red entered, none of the figures attacked him. In fact, some of the figures that were close to him simply scattered like frightened fish, while distant figures didn't even react to his presence.
'They even act like real animals.'
Red punched one of the fish, which exploded into streams of colored water, particles of colored ice, and bubbles of colored steam.
In the next moment, all of the different parts of the fish gathered again, and within a second, the fish reformed. When it saw Red, it fled into the distance.
Red experimented some more, and eventually, he seemingly managed to anger the Law Well. Several humongous fish attacked him, but their powers were limited.
'The more you mimic life, the more you have to follow the rules of life,' Kyle thought. 'Immortal Darkness doesn't even mimic life, and its threat was the greatest. Immortal Water mimics life very well, but that also means that it's much weaker.'
'The other Immortal Elements use my perception to attack me, even though I am the source of their existence. It's almost like they don't want to exist. Immortal Water only attacks me if I attack it. It's almost like it simply wants to keep living.'
'I can already tell that Immortal Water will be the very thing that will hold all the other Immortal Elements together.'
Without wasting any more time, Kyle focused on comprehending Immortal Water.
Surprisingly, Immortal Water was quite difficult to comprehend. Kyle needed around 70,000 years to comprehend it.
'Immortal Water's existence can be used as a base to incorporate the other Immortal Elements,' Kyle thought. 'The way it uses my perception is very different from the way the other Immortal Elements use.'
'Anyway, I need one more Law.'
Red quickly traveled to the Law Well for Immortal Light. In a way, it acted similarly to the other Immortal Elements, but it was still unique in its own way. The Immortal Light tried to increase Red's Energy to unhealthy levels as long as he felt safe. If he felt unsafe, it would consume Red's Energy to create more of itself. It was like Immortal Light didn't like extremes.
Kyle needed a bit to get used to Immortal Light, but eventually, he also managed to find a good rhythm.
It took Kyle 40,000 years to comprehend the Law of Immortal Light.
At the same time as Red left the Law Well, Black received all of Kyle's focus and pushed forward. All of Kyle's insights gathered, and...
BOOOOM!
BOOOOM!
BOOOOM!
In one fell swoop, Kyle finished the Major Law of Space, the Major Law of Time, and the Major Law of Gravity!
'All the ingredients have been gathered,' Kyle thought. '430,000 years are left until the deadline arrives.'
'Soon, Overseer.'
'Soon.'
