A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 83: Powerful adversary

The instant Jennifer's sword clashed with theirs'. A deafening metallic sound rang out and a massive sphere of vacuum surfaced, enveloping both Jennifer and her three masked adversaries. At the same instant they were engulfed by the sphere, a powerful wave of energy manifested, knocking both Jennifer and the three masked people into the distance.

Immediately she regained her balance, she abruptly unleashed an attack at them.

"Fiery Sword Lotus!"

She shouted and slashed out at the three people. Then pyroforce energy and swordforce energy discharged in great quantities from the treasure-sword in her hand.

Once the energies erupted from the sword, one of them caused the ambient temperature of the atmosphere to shoot up to extreme levels such that even the clouds seemed to be vaporizing.

This insane heating effect was brought about by the pyroforce energy which was crimson-red in color. It was an energy that generated flames and heat. While the swordforce energy, sky-blue in color caused gashes of vacuum to appear in the air. These were large slits void of matter. There was no air or any other form of particles in these slits.

The energies mixed with each other. Then they condensed and shaped into a large lotus. This lotus was massive such that it spanned ten thousand feet in size; both in height and width.

Emitting overbearing heat like it wanted to evaporate everything in its path, and an unbridled power of tyrannical sharpness that seemed it could cut through all things, the lotus shot forward at a great speed towards Jennifer's attackers.

This lotus came about when Jennifer infused her comprehension of a battle-method into the energies. Since cultivators were connected to their energies, they could transmit their profound understandings to them and the energies would transform, forming that attack.

The attackers saw the enormous, lotus-shaped energy-attack come at them. Then they quickly unleashed their own attacks in response.

"Sky-splintering Thunderbolt!"

"Meatgrinder Attack!"

"Bronze Spear of Misery Strike!"

Then three forms of energies discharged in great quantities from the weapons they released at Jennifer's attack.

These energies; lightniforce energy, bladeforce energy and bronze metalforce energy, immediately transformed into a large blue bolt of lightning, a massive maw that resembled that of a primordial beast and a spear respectively.

Swoosh!

Immediately they formed, they shot through the air at great speeds towards the incoming attack.

Boom!!!

A loud, sky-shaking sound rang out when Jennifer's attack, which was many times massive than her adversaries' attacks, collided.

Then large, ripple-like streams of violent energies were instantly released. These berserk energies raged into the distance tearing apart the clouds in their path. Very soon, the region became void of clouds.

Jennifer's attackers had their faces turn solemn when the energy-lotus, although now dim, still shot towards them, radiating power that sent frights into their very souls.

Very quickly, they unleashed numerous devastating attacks at it. Since the lotus was impacted multiple times by fearsomely powerful attacks, it lost it form as it shattered and the energy that constituted it dispersed, returning to the realmverse.

How would they be able to easily destroy an attack unleashed by a treasure-weapon, a peerless-grade commander-weapon forged by Alex's mom?

"Ma'am, where did you get that sword? I could sense that the treasure-sword must be a peerless-grade weapon. Right?" one of the masked people who were the same asked.

"Why do you care?" Jennifer asked irritatedly. Then she continued "Oh, I get. You have taking a liking to my sword. So, when you kill me, you would take it along with you. Right?"

The one that spoke nodded her head. Showing that she agreed to what Jennifer said.

Pffft.

Jennifer broke into laughter.

"You think you can harm me?" She asked with a smile that seemed wicked.

"Of course we can. You shall see. Haha!" The same person responded with an evil laugh.

Then two of the three people who had been quiet the entire time began to glow. The light emitting from their bodies dyed the region they were in, in their colour. This light was prismatic and brilliant.

Jennifer became surprised at this spectacle. She knew they were about to do something that would be seriously harmful to her. But she couldn't guess in any way what they were about to do. But she remained at alert. Besides, she was the type not to underestimate her opponents. With her sword in her hands, she readied herself.

An instant later, the two people that were emanating a bright, colorful light unexpectedly turned into thousands of motes of power that entered into the body of the female that spoke to Jennifer and permeated it.

Then her cultivation stage increased from the Saint Emperor realm to the Sage General realm.

The hell!

Jennifer became stupefied.

"So she has always been at the sage general stage?" She asked inwardly and in a deeply surprised tone. Even the state of amazement she was in could be easily noticed in her face.

"How was she able to do that?"

Jennifer began to wonder what kind of cloning technique allowed the female to accomplish that. Then fear set in her heart. Although, it was only a slight fear as she still believed she could handle a true Sage general stage cultivator.

Besides, she was armed with a commander-weapon and many voidstones that contained powerful arrays which could produce great amounts of various form of energies.

Jennifer wasn't a true sage general stage cultivator. She only had her body's skeletal framework strengthen and toughen to the point that the power she could produce from her fist and palm strikes could match the damaging power or destructive capacity of the full-powered attacks of a sage general stage expert.

The female looked at her and asked "Scared?"

"Scared? Don't even think about it?" Jennifer replied.

The female nodded.

Then she produced her own commander-weapon. It was in the form of a sword too. This commander-grade treasure-sword was a supreme-rank one.

"Nine Planets Strike!"

She shouted and slashed out at Jennifer. Then a colossal mass of terraforce energy; an elemental energy of earth, known for it heaviness and solidness, shot towards Jennifer at a great speed.

When this energy discharged from the treasure-sword, it moved as a massive dark brown cloud towards Jennifer. It then rapidly condensed and shaped into nine dark brown spheres that pulsed with astonishing power.

They caused the air to intensely tremble and the earth below them to crack and shatter due to the great, mountain-sundering pressure emanating unceasingly from them.

These spheres were large in size. They each spanned ten thousand meters. The deep brown light emitting from them illuminated everywhere in this place, with their numerous shadows casted over it.

Jennifer could feel the destructive power of the attack.

"Truly a sage general stage expert!" She said inwardly. She couldn't imagine the amount of energy needed to form these numerous, mountain-sized attacks.

"Profound Sun and Moon Trinity Blades!"

She shouted and slashed out.

Then great amounts of solarforce energy and lunarforce energy erupted from the treasure-sword. These were energies of the sun and moon respectively. One was extremely hot, the other was extremely cold.

These large masses of energies were produced from two new voidstones Jennifer plugged into two sockets in her sword.

When these discharged from the sword, they swiftly condensed, taking the shapes of blades that spanned ten thousand meters. When they formed, they shot out at tremendous speeds towards the incoming attacks. There were three of these blades formed by the two energies.

These enormous blades condensed from energy emitted strong, blinding lights that bathed everywhere in their powerful luminescence.

The gigantic, fearsome attacks collided and enormous ripples of violent energies erupted from the impacts. These travelled in all directions, wreaking havoc. They would ravage anything in their path.

If these collisions and energy eruptions occurred on the ground, they would make massive and deep craters in it.

Bang!! Bang!!

Both Jennifer and her female attacker were sent flying for long distances by the rippling energy waves when it struck them.

Just before the waves which moved at shocking speeds could hit Jennifer, she quickly covered herself in the armor Alex gave her. This protected her from the waves that could collapse the sky.

But it shattered upon impact and she was knocked flying. Long metallic pieces of her splintered armor could be seen sticking out of her skin.

Luckily, her silver skeleton didn't break from the tremendous destructive impacts. It could withstand the fragmenting force transmitted to her by the wave.

But her flesh was a bloody mess. Covered with nauseating wounds all over, blood spurted from it from different places.

When she crashed into the earth from that altitude, she groaned agonizingly in pain as her body smashed the earth hardly.

She immediately became dizzy because of the height in the air she fell from. It juggled her brain. She forced herself out of this dizzied state and stood back to her feet.

She grunted as intense pain racked her entire body while trying to stand. She quickly produced a healing pill which she consumed. This turned into a large amount of healforce energy in her body.

As the energy circulated round her body, it ejected the metallic fragments that had burrowed into her skin. Then the wounds she sustained began to heal up.

When she was impacted by the waves, she lost grip of her sword. She couldn't find where it dropped. As she searched around and with her powerful sense, the female attacker could be seen in the cloudless sky. She was also injured as blood tricked down the sides of her lips. She wasn't as injured as Jennifer, only slightly injured.

This female had a wicked smile in her face. She raised a hand up and in it grasp was Jennifer's sword.

"Looking for this?" She asked loudly with a smile.

Jennifer's eyes shone. Then unbridled fear set in her heart. What now occupied the void of her heart was the thought of how to surmount this opponent of hers. Without the sword, she couldn't deliver energy-attacks that could match that of sage general stage experts.

The only way to beat her female attacker was to fly up to her and attack her at a close range. Only in that way could she break and crush her bones by delivering super-hard, immensely heavy punches at her body.

She became very worried. This was getting graver for her every second.

The lady up in the sky left Jennifer to think of what to do next. She wanted to see what Jennifer would do about this. She was laughing wickedly in her mind as she saw the deeply confused state Jennifer was in.

Jennifer then sent a sliver of her perception into her spatial ring. This sliver of her consciousness roamed the vast space of her spatial ring for sometime before she discovered one of the many items Alex gave her that day.

She looked at it and saw it was a pill. It was white in color and the pressure emanating from it caused her to be shocked.

"What sort of pill is this?" she asked inwardly in a surprised tone. Although she was perplexed, she had a feeling that it was something that would probably give her a burst of power.

But she wouldn't know this pill was the blood essence of a divine expert. It was mixed with alchemical ingredients, such as consummate cultivation herbs to help improve rapid dissolution in the body and quick absorption by it.

Even Alex didn't know what the pill was. As it emitted power that greatly frightened him, he felt he should give it to her. Besides, he still had many more of these things. So he believed he would find out about it use in future.

She hoped her intuition was right. With a thought, the pill appeared in front of her. Once it appeared in front of her, it emitted waves of power that pushed the air away around it, creating a vacuum zone. Besides, the pill was luminous as it gave out an intense light. It was like a divine pill.

"Divine pill?"

Both Jennifer and the female in the sky thought at the same time.

Without wasting more time, Jennifer quickly swallowed it. Once it entered into her body and dissolved, it released great amount of energies upon it dissolution in her body.

Jennifer suddenly felt she had the power to move worlds. It wasn't real, just a feeling. But she felt she could probably do this.

It wasn't an unreal feeling. She felt she could do this because of the currents of power raging in her body.

The energy she got from the pill was divineforce energy. This energy then melded with the energies Jennifer cultivated.

When the new energy in her body achieved a homogenous phase with the other energies she cultivated, she felt incredibly powerful. Even her comprehension went up by a leap.

With a smile plastered in her face, she looked at the female and said "I want my sword back"

With furrowed brows, the female said "Oh. You think some pill is going to make you match by battle strength? Girl, you must be foolish. Such pills had never existed. So, If you want your sword, lay down your life. When I kill kill you, I will bury your sword with you."

Jennifer laughed hysterically "Lay down my life? In your dreams bitch!" she said loudly.

Then with a stomp on the ground, she hurled herself into the air.

The female saw that Jennifer had regained her confidence and that her confidence was now very high, then she decided to switch to plan B.

Very fast, she flew towards Jennifer.

Jennifer saw her action and became bewildered. She didn't know what she wanted to do. But she got ready to attack.

When the lady appeared in front of her, Jennifer seeing this as an opportunity to deliver an island-crushing punch, quickly sent out her fist.

The lady dodged the fist that generated a wave of power that pushed all the air away from her. Then because of her high cultivation stage, she had a faster reaction speed.

Very quickly, she shot her finger into Jennifer's chest. This pierced Jennifer's chest easily and abruptly, dark-colored threads of energy spread from the two fingers that had penetrated Jennifer's chest to the rest of her body.

Then her beautiful, flawless skin ruined as her glowing white skin turned black. Lot of veins bulged all over her body and when the female removed her hands, blood spurted from the wound inflicted upon Jennifer. Her blood wasn't bright red anymore. It was incomparably black.

Her beautiful face ruined as it turned haggard. It became wrinkled and black.

The bright glow in her eyes dimmed as a dark layer formed in them.

Her beautiful long hair turned dark grey and began to fall off.

Slowly, she emaciated. Her skins dried up and began to fall off like withered leaves.

A great pain racked her soul and body.

"Did you think some divine pill was going to save you from my hands? Everyone I set out to kill always die. But I must give it to you. You were very formidable. So die well. Haha" The woman said and gave a sinister laugh.

Then she kicked Jennifer heavily on the chest and this sent her plummeting to the solid earth.

Bang!

She landed hardly to the ground and coughed out black blood. Cracks rapidly appeared all over her weakened skin, then dark black blood began to seep out from them.

At this point in time, Jennifer's vitality drained away as the poisonforce energy circulated in her body. Her body slowly became stiff and cold.

All her memories became blurry and seemed to vanish, she couldn't recall them. It was only Alex's image that remained in her mind.

"Finally! I got a peerless-grade commander-weapon. Haha. Bitch!! If you can still hear me, thanks! I am taking your sword away with me!" she shouted elatedly.

Boom!!

Then she flew away at a speed ten times the speed of sound. Moving at that speed caused the air to boom.
