A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 82: Battles Saint experts

Large masses of frostforce energy and deathforce energy erupted from the men.

The frostforce energy was bluish white in colour. This was an energy that could create ice and frosts while the deathforce energy, purple-black in color could bring about emaciation and death.

The massive mass of frostforce energy condensed and shaped into a blue-white dragon. This dragon, crystalline in appearance like it was molded from ice shot towards Alex at high speed.

As it cannoned towards Alex at a far distance, it left a wide trail of ice in the air. Then these fell to the ground as ice crystals. Even the ground below the trajectory path of the attack froze in a flash. It became encrusted in ice.

When this energy first appeared, it brought about an excessively cold temperature. The temperature of the surrounding instantly plummeted to a very low degree.

Alex from where he stood could feel the great decrease in temperature as the air within the dome-shaped barrier became insanely cold.

While the mass of deathforce energy condensed and shaped into seven large books that shot at great speed towards Alex. These books, purple-black in color had ancient inscriptions in them. These inscriptions pulsed with a fearsome power of decay and death.

When this energy erupted from the man, Alex suddenly felt that his life was draining away. He could feel that his vitality was disappearing.

These men were actually unrestrained in the discharge of the powers gained from the cultivation of certain energies. They knew that their men were in the dome-shaped barrier, but because they were furious and wanted to kill Alex, they released their powers without constraint.

The rest of the bandits couldn't withstand the power emanating from the energies that invaded their bodies. They either froze, in body and soul, becoming ice statues or rapidly turned black, shrunk and dried up, falling to the ground as jet-black ashes that scattered upon hitting the ground and drifting away with the wind.

In a few seconds, the commander and the rest of the bandits had been eliminated.

Once Alex saw the dragon-form and book-form energy-attacks materialize and shoot towards him, he quickly pointed his hands at them. Then the blades and wings suspended in the air shot like arrows towards the attacks.

Boom! Bang!

The massive attacks unleashed by the saint-stage cultivators were impacted by the blades and wings. When they clashed, waves of energies erupted and traveled into the distance in all directions.

Alex and the two men were knocked backwards by the powerful waves that were released upon collision of their attacks.

Alex smashed into the massive silver elephant behind him and produced a muffled groan. While the men, since there was nothing to confine them struggled for sometime before they regained their balance. They had been hurled for dozens of feet into the distance by the waves generated from the collisions.

Since Alex had long gained his balance, he quickly used that as an opportunity to deliver an attack at the Saint-stage cultivators.

He raised his left leg and stomped the earth hardly with it. When Alex raised his left leg, the enormous silver elephant behind him raised it left limb too. Then when Alex smashed that leg into the ground, the elephant did the same, smashing its left fore limb into the earth. It copied what Alex was doing.

As it was a sentient energy-animal; an animal formed from energy and given consciousness by the power of animation of the animateforce energy, it could think because it now had a high level of awareness and perception.

It knew what Alex was about to do and so mimicked him.

Boom!!!

A loud explosive sound rang out as Alex's leg and the elephant's limb stomped the ground. The earth, because of the power passed into it, trembled intensely and cracked. Then a tall, silver-colored wave of earth-splintering power surfaced and moved in all directions.

This wave of energy, moving with the power to reduce mountains to rubbles, swept out and caused the earth within the large barrier to a great depth to crush and reduce to powder.

When the saint-level experts saw the wave, which was about thirty feet tall move towards them, they quickly produced energy screens to protect themselves from it.

Bang!! Bang!!

Their shields shattered and they were sent flying by the terrific wave. They were knocked far into distance such that they collided into the barrier produced by the trapping formation.

Since they were wore powerful armors, they were protected from the mountain-crushing energy wave. But their organs suffered the most from the impacts. Serious cuts could be seen in them. These were caused by the shocks transmitted to them when the wave impacted the armor they wore, causing grievous internal wounds.

But as experts at the Saint stage, their fast recovery powers kicked in and then their wounds began to heal up.

When the omnidirectional wave lost it power as the energy that constituted it dispersed, calm returned to this region except that great amount of dusts filled the air. The whole place within this barrier darkened as sunlight couldn't get through.

If one could see the ground, one would see that a large layer of the earth in the dome-shaped barrier had been stripped away. It was this layer of earth that had turned to dusts that saturated the air in this barrier. The earth had been pulverized to smooth, fine grains by the powerful, energy-charged seismic wave generated by both Alex's and the elephant stomps.

Alex's rapid comprehension of a battle-technique of the [Earthbreaker Silver-Elephant Diamond Physique], which was the [Ground Rending Stomp] stopped at the Saint stage. His sudden understanding of the mystery of the technique enabled him to possess the power of ninety thousand elephants.

So, by infusing that level of comprehension into his stomp attack, he was able to stomp the earth with the strength of ninety thousand elephants. That is, with the might of ninety thousand elephants. But his attack was augmented to a vast level by the humongous silver elephant behind him.

Possessing great weight due to the gigantic mass of energy that constituted it and having the same degree of comprehension of the battle-method as Alex. When it stomped the earth the same instant Alex did, it was able to increase the destructive power of Alex's stomp by a factor of fifteen thousand.

Alex at the moment was beginning to feel dizzy. Also, he felt an intense sharp pain in his head. The pain was probably equivalent to the pain a person would feel when such person's head was cracked open by an axe.

Green veins bulge from his temples and blood streamed down his ears and nose. But he endured the agonizing pain and focused on it instead.

He concentrated on the pain he felt to prevent himself from blacking out. Right now, he was in a state of urgency. He needed to end this or he would be ended.

Then he deployed many of the powerful techniques of the three physiques all at once.

[Blade Whirlpool]

[Prismatic Blade Sovereign Slash]

[Chaotic Dance of the Seraphims]

[Earth Devourer]

The hundreds of large blades floating in the air began to move in circles at a great speed. It formed something like a cyclone or a whirling column. Then it raged towards the men producing the feeling that it would cut and shred everything in its path to bits.

The large mass of chaosforce energy; an energy that a wisp of it, if it descends into the ocean would cause a tsunami as it would eject a large volume of water because of it mystifying tremendous weight, suddenly infused into the wings formed out of nothing by the power of materialization of the manaforce energy.

Once the wings were permeated with the energy, they became jet-black and extremely heavy. They were now a thousand times their initial weight. Then they shot through the air like arrows towards the men, but in a rather chaotic manner. Their form was disorderly. There was no pattern except they just shot from every angle and at different speeds. This was the [Chaotic Dance of the seraphims] battle-technique.

A large, luminous blade of energy that gave out many colors of light, held in one of Alex's hands shot of it like a cannonball towards the men.

As the blade shot through the air, it unexpectedly transformed into a massive, resplendent beam of energy that was tens of thousands of meters wide. It caused wide gashes of vacuum to appear in the air in it path. Even the ground below it began to lacerate due to the power of unbridled sharpness emitting from it.

Then Alex's last attack, which was the [Earth Devourer], was a towering, all-direction wave of energy that discharged from his lower body. This wave was many times powerful than the previous wave Alex generated when he stomped the earth.

But this time, the elephant didn't stomp the earth. Instead, it shot into the air to a great height and then plunged to the earth. It wanted to deliver an extremely powerful attack.

The moment Alex deployed the various battle-methods of the physiques, the crushing headache he was inflicted with, intensified by multiple folds. This was because he greatly overstrained himself throwing out those terrifying attacks.

Argh!!

He screamed in agony as he held his head tightly. Then his bloodshot eyes became void of any awareness. He had become non-conscious. Then he fell with his back to the ground.

When the Saint-stage cultivators saw the numerous frightening attacks coming at them, their faces turned grave.

With a thought, treasure-weapons appeared in both hands. Then they totally discharged all the energies in them.

At the same time, with an understanding that what they were about to do next could pose a great problem to their cultivation in future. They drained themselves of every energy in their energyhouses and channeled them along their energy meridians to their palms.

It was a risk they were taking because their energy meridians could rupture or ruin due to the overwhelming amounts of energy suddenly moving through them. This could prevent them from continuing their cultivation in future.

"Fiendgod Termination Ice Storm!"

"Death Emperor Staff Strike"

The energies that erupted from their energyhouses and treasure-weapons transformed into massive fearsome attacks that blazed through the air towards the attacks unleashed by Alex.

The men at the moment looked extremely pale and were shaking. It was like they had put their life into the attacks they sent out. They coughed out blood and then collapsed to the ground, directly entering the unconscious state.

Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!

The attacks collided and multiple explosive sounds rang out. These sounds were instantly accompanied by massive rippling energies that moved in all directions, ravaging everything in their path.

These huge energy ripples possessed high degrees of devastating power as it affected the dome-shaped barrier of energy generated by the trapping formation.

Thousands of wide cracks rapidly appeared in it structure. Then with an intensely loud, earth-trembling bang, the dome shattered and the numerous powerful ripples of violent energies erupted from it, traveling into the distance in the wilderness.

If one looked at the area where the massive dome-shaped barrier formerly was, one would see a large, deep crater in the earth. This crater was astonishingly deep, about thousands of kilometers deep and thousands of kilometers wide.

At the bottom of this crater could be seen two bodies covered with grievous wounds and lying in small pools of blood. These bloody pools were actually formed from the blood oozing from the wounds in their bodies. Pieces of metals could be seen around them and some sticking out from their skins.

Far in front of these men was a large, majestic palace. In it tall, golden gate could be seen massive engravings of fearsome beasts. If one looked at these enormous beasts engravings, one would have the feeling that these were divine beasts. This palace was the Azure Beastsman's palace.

.....

Jennifer became tired and weary from her long search for Alex. She was really heartbroken. If anything happened to Alex, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.

She left the academy because she couldn't control her urge for the wealth of a sage-lord expert. Thereby, leaving Alex to protect himself. At that point in time, she felt was selfish, only thinking about herself.

She didn't know where the greed came from as she wasn't always like that. She always cared for people. But the joy at the thought of having such wealth clouded her senses, disabling her from thinking straight.

But it wasn't her fault. Which expert wouldn't want to have continuous and smooth breakthroughs to higher cultivation stages.

There was great anger, hatred and sadness in her heart. She was angry at herself and at the principal for electing Alex to go for some adventurous exploration which was in the form a competition between academies. She was now totally hateful of Micah and the feeling of sorrow she felt was because she couldn't find that sweet, handsome boy.

At the moment, she was at a place very far away in the city. This place was like a wilderness. She was scanning this place with her powerful, emperor-level saint-sense and hoping she would detect Alex.

She thoroughly scanned the place for undergrounds and probably formations that generated invisibility.

Many minutes later, the sky in this region suddenly darkened, then a few people appeared in the clouds.

Jennifer noticed the change. Then she ceased scanning and looked up. She saw three masked people dressed in black uniforms. Their eyes shone with the intent to kill and maraud.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"We are members of the league of shadows" One of them responded.

Jennifer's eyes shone. Her eyes glowed because the person that replied had a feminine voice. This meant this person was a female.

"Oh! What do you want from me? You are here to rob me or what?" Jennifer asked.

"We have been paid to take your life" The three of them said at once in that same feminine voice.

Huh!

"Really? Then let me see you are going to do that" Jennifer said.

Quickly, she armed herself with the sword Alex gave her. Then a strong battle intent, accompanied by an aura of wrath erupted from her.

She was ready to unleash all the emotions that had built up in her mind for the past few days on anyone.

She flew towards the three people which were actually the same person. Then she struck at them with her sword. They also responded too.

CLANK!!!
