GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1682  The Titanic Dilemma.

Ghoto's image was the anchor that brought together the essence of the star. The supernova collapsed into the concept of lightning embodiment. "Success." Ghoto said with a smile.

He succeeded in his breakthrough. His existence has changed from a soul body into a body of law. Both his body and mind have gained resistance to law thanks to the essence that was infused into them during the breakthrough process. He also has a seed of power within him, and he can control world power. He felt full of power and might. His eyes were glowing, and his aura was majestic. He felt like he could move the world. All is well and good. But then his concept activated without his permission. Lightning ripped out of him and took his body with it. He screamed in pain. It was a loud cry of pain, as it should be when your existence is turning from physical into energy form for the first time. His mind fragmented along with his body. He couldn't form a coherent thought, even if he was not plagued by the pain. He got what he wanted. He wanted to become lightning, but he can't control what he has become. They say one should be careful what they wish for. They should be extra careful when they wish to become something they have no experience with. It was simple to form the concept of lightning embodiment, but if you have never been an energy form before, you might not be able to handle the transformation. And if you are not a Sovereign of law, you will not be able to control your energy form. This is the hurdle that titans of law have to go through to become Sovereigns of law. They have to gain perfect control over their concepts. This is difficult for some and easier for others. If Ghoto had gone with the destructive aspect of lightning that he is familiar with, maybe he would be able to control his concept better. Unfortunately, he didn't. He has become lightning now. However, lightning is never in stasis. It is not static. It appears suddenly and leaves suddenly. It also discharges a lot of energy and power during that short appearance. However, Ghoto has been in his lightning form for a minute now. This means he is losing a lot of his energy and essence. He can't stop it because he is currently muddle headed. He couldn't control his concept, so he remained in his current state. He is muddle headed in his current state, so he can't control his concept. It is quite the dilemma.

He ran out of energy and essence very quickly. He died a quick death, but it was very painful. In fact, he was probably glad when he died and the pain ended. Since he succeeded in becoming a titan of law without life essence, he could have used it to preserve his life during his precarious state. Maybe it would have saved his life. Maybe it wouldn't. But one thing is sure. It is that he will never find out because he sold it.

Now, he has died. Hopefully, his family will not follow soon after. That will make his decision to sell the life essence stupid regardless of what he thought of it. When he died, he didn't leave anything behind. His incomplete seed of power unraveled after his death and dispersed back into the world. -----Fool's Gold. Being a titan of law is not easy. Many think the main danger is trying to break through to become a titan of law. Not many think of the many titans of law that die because of their concepts or die because they couldn't control their concepts and lost all their essence. Apart from the danger of an unstable concept, there is also the danger of a useless concept. Yes, one needs to build a concept to become a titan of law, and yes, one needs to gain perfect control of it to become Sovereigns of law. But what if the concept is weak and useless? What if, to prioritize safety, a titan of law built a weak concept? What can they do after they become Sovereigns of law and regret their decision? What if they built a concept too strong and can't control it? There are solutions to these problems, but they are either dangerous or unpalatable. The problem of a concept being too strong is what is plaguing the fountain of life. She is a dragon born with an affinity for the law of life. The law of life has the best survival ability. She can heal almost any damage to herself, and she can even manipulate life to some extent.

Dragons of life like her have one of the strongest bodies possible for a titan of law. Their bodies have the strength of titans of the law of fire and the durability of titans of the law of earth. But beyond that, the law of life doesn't have the best fighting strength, and the manipulation of the lives of living things is limited to weak beings who are vastly weaker than them. This was not enough for her. She wasn't content with her lot at all. This is not surprising to see in a dragon. They are usually proud and greedy. She couldn't bear to be weak because of her pride, so she decided to change her path as a titan of law.

Her decision to improve her lot was not a bad idea. It became a bad idea when she decided to go too far. She was too greedy, so she didn't pair the law of life with a normal law like the law of fire or light. No, she chose another high law. She chose the law of creation. This is even though she knew that her dragon heart couldn't take more than one law for use within her concept.

It would have been too much if she had used a normal law in addition to the law of life. But she had to take things far beyond the limit because of her greed.
