A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 132: The Thunderclapper



Chapter 132: The Thunderclapper

After producing the luminescent beam of energy for a long time, the treasure-artifact stopped.

Alex came over and took it. Then he stowed it into his spatial ring.

Elena whose eyes were still filled with awe looked at Alex who was smiling.

"Alex, I don't think this was caused by any luck. You must know the treasure-artifact was in here all along. You were just pretending to me" She said.

"No, I wasn't" Alex replied. Then he continued "I'm just a type of guy that love to finish what I start. I felt that since we are already here, we should rummage through the entire cave and be sure nothing was here before leaving. It is far better than stopping halfway and regret later."

Elena shook her head and smiled.

"You always know how to defend yourself. Keep on pretending to me. I will catch you one day. I am certain of that" She said.

Then she spoke again with a smile hung on her face "Brace yourself. Competitors have been alerted. They would arrive here very soon"

Just as she finished speaking, crowds of students rushed into the cave.

Alex sensed when they entered using 'feel sense'. Then he broke off his connection to the light orbs.

In an instant, the energy orbs lost their form and the radiance-energy that formed them returned to the realmverse.

The cave was suddenly thrown into total darkness.

Alex's eyes began to emit light like a torch. This was because he permeated them with radiantforce energy. Then he grabbed Elena by the waist and instantly, a thin spherical layer of air materialized around both of them. The second the air sphere formed around them, astonishingly strong winds appeared out of nowhere and propelled it out of the cave. The super-strong winds blew away everyone in their path.

Many moments later, after Alex had left the cave's mouth, he was suddenly greeted by several dozens of fearsome, elemental energy-attacks.

But in an instant, large quantity of cyan-colored windforce energy discharged from his body. It rapidly condensed and shaped into a towering and thick rectangular shield.

Bang! Bang! Bang!...

Many attacks struck the shield but it didn't shatter. It was surprisingly highly-resilient. It didn't even tremble talk more of crack.

The shield was solid and extremely tough despite being created on a whim. It achieved a very high degree of density and hardness.

The defensive power of his rapidly constructed energy-shield caused his attackers to marvel.

"Who is this person?" They asked inwardly in a shocked tone.

These attackers were new set of people who didn't know of Alex's battle proficiency yet. Although they have heard rumors of one particular person called 'The Thunderclapper', someone being able to fend off attacks of hundreds of people and shove them all away with a single thunderous clap, they didn't know it was that nicknamed person they tried attacking.

These people remained outside the cave to ambush whoever would run out it. They believed that whoever does so would surely possess the treasure-artifact or he or she wouldn't run out of the cave in a hasty speed.

Then more people came over from far distances and from the cave, increasing the numbers of people surrounding Alex to hundreds from their few dozens.

But some shook when they saw Alex. With bittered minds, they complained inwardly why it was Alex that would get a treasure-artifact. That was a second one in his possession and they resented him for that since they couldn't fight him.

In the next second, they broke off from the group of people facing Alex and went far away into the distance. To them, it was like they were trying to battle a mid-stage earth adept cultivator. He was too powerful and overwhelming for them.

They wondered how someone lower than them in cultivation phase could be so powerful to that extent. Then they believed that he was one of those epic or legendary geniuses who have no peers at any cultivation rank they were in regardless of phase.

So, instead of wasting their time to battle and be terribly beaten in the process, they left to go search for the last treasure-artifact. They prayed in their heart that they should be the one to discover it.

Only little of the people who knew of Alex's overpowering combat strength still remained.

They remained because they felt that Alex may be defeated this time. Their numbers now were more than when they fought him many days ago.

Besides, they guessed that there should be some geniuses in this large group. Their great attack-powers, combined with that of the hundreds of students here, they believed that they would be able to take Alex down this time.

A moment later, astonished gasps rang out from some people that just joined their numbers. Then the words, 'The Thunderclapper' were uttered by these people. One could perceive fear and reverence in the tones of the people that said it.

The dozens of students who attacked Alex when he came out of the cave heard the moniker. Then their eyes widened in shock.

"You are The Thunderclapper?" One of them asked.

Alex was taken aback when he was asked that question. Then he quickly figured that they had formed an alias for him.

With a smile and a serious look in his eyes, he nodded.

"Yes, I am the one." He said.

Then he thought of making that move a signature move. He decided to call it 'Sky-clearing Thunderclap'. He named it so because he could disperse the clouds in the vast sky with this move and at the same time produce a frightening boom sound that would seem to come from dozens of furious, terrifying thunderbolts that struck out at once.

"Hmm. Although you may have offensive and defensive power that would match that of an earth adept stage cultivator. In the end, you are still an initial-phase condensation stage cultivator. I will suggest you release all the treasure-artifacts in your hand or be faced with the wraths of everyone here. There's nothing you can do against the hundreds of peak-phase condensation stage cultivators here." The boy that spoke earlier said.

"Well, they are mine now. If you have the strength, come and get it."
