A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 154: Destroy his body

Upon seeing only a single body, the Saint stage cultivators furrowed their brows. Since there was only a body here, then this meant that the other had been slain. As in, his body had been reduced to small fragments. But they weren't also sure if this body before them was dead.

It was just that Alex was unconscious. If he wasn't, and they sensed the cultivation stage that he was in using their cultivation percipience ability, they would be shocked beyond any word would be able to describe. So now that he had blanked out, his body didn't produce pulses of power that would enable them to know that he was in the condensation stage.

So they thought that he was a saint-level competitor like them. And from the robe he wore, they could see that it was very expensive, judging from the quality of the material used in making it, therefore they inferred that he was a rogue cultivator.

Since the name of any family he could be probably from wasn't inscribed into the robe or embroidered on it, they could only conclude that he was an unaffiliated cultivator; one not belonging to a family or an organization or an academy.

But they respected him for his courage, bravery and strength since he could still come here even when he was not from an organization.

Despite the harsh condition given to inherit the legacy, he still tried to fight over it with them. It simply meant that he was a powerful saint-level expert. And from the degree of devastation caused to this place, they could gauge his strength. So they saw him as one mighty battle genius, one not to be messed with.

"Is he dead?" One of the Saint stage cultivator asked the many others who were looking at the deep crater Alex made in the earth using his astonishingly powerful move.

If it were them, they wouldn't be able to produce such crater. With awe in their eyes, they wondered who his opponent was. Maybe another powerful genius.

"I think so. But to make sure that he is truly dead, let us destroy his body" One of them said.

Then the others nodded, agreeing to what the person spoke.

There were about seventy of them here. So with colorful flashes of light, treasure-weapons appeared in their hands.

They uttered the name of their battle-moves and expelled numerous, low-powered, energy-attacks at Alex's body.

BANG!

The massive, torrential attacks simultaneously struck Alex's body and it simply vanished from that spot. It had been utterly destroyed; reduced to bits by their fearsome energy-offensives.

When they saw that Alex's body had been reduced to nothing by their attacks, then they spread out to face each other.

With the aura of both battle intent and killing intent coming out of their bodies, and intense coldness radiating from their eyes, they looked at each other and got ready to attack one another. Their treasure-weapons had begun to glow as the arrays in the voidstones had begun to produce energies.

Just when they would attack each other with their strongest moves, someone spoke "Wait!"

Everyone then paused and turned to look at the person that spoke, waiting for an explanation on why they should wait.

The person that spoke earlier, after seeing that he had grabbed their attention, then continued "We can't fight in here. This wouldn't be a good battle. We are choked up here. We need more space for a fulfilling battle. Let us ascend to the sky and fight there to our satisfaction. We are not body-cultivators, we can't do close-quarters combat"

"Hmm"

This rang out from everyone of them. They actually agreed with the cultivator that spoke. He was simply right with what he said. Then they shot into the sky to begin their multi-opponents battle.

Not long, frightening booms rang out as hundreds of different colors lit up the sky and dyed the earth below.

.....

When the massive attacks were launched towards Alex's unconscious body, before the legacy-bestowing spirit could do anything, the Azure Beastsman's palace had actually appeared. Then concealing itself in another layer of space which they wouldn't be able to detect in any way, it produced a spatial transference power that pulled in Alex's body into the palace.

To the attackers, it was as if Alex's body had been reduced to nothing. Whereas, his body just vanished from the spot it was by the space-manipulation power given out the Azure Beastsman's treasure-palace which the palace-spirit finely controlled.

Then it moved through the spatial layer it concealed itself in to a very far distance. After reaching a place no Saint stage cultivator was in at the moment, it came out of the layer and shot into a crack in the earth to hide in it. The palace was able to hide in this small crack as it was now in a greatly miniaturized form.

Within the palace's hall could be seen Alex's body. This would be the third time the palace-spirit would bring Alex into this place to protect him from harm. Not that it was complaining, it would do so a thousand times if Alex was ever in grave danger. He was the legacy-disciple of his master, anything happens to him, that would be the end of it Master's legacy continuation.

Besides, apart from being a legacy-disciple, from what it has witnessed so far about Alex, Alex was a super-battle genius that might probably reach the Supreme Alpha Eternal stage which was also called the 'Master of Realm' stage, the stage which no Cultivation-deviant, Life-deviant and even Beyonders have ever reached; It was a theoretically and practically impossible stage to reach. And even if he doesn't attain it, he would surely possess the strength that would be available to one in that realm. Only he could ever achieve such an impossible feat.

So it couldn't let a genius that would shake worlds with his gaze alone and bring damnation to god-like beings with just a whisper die just like that.

Therefore, it would do absolutely everything in it power to protect Alex. Till this moment, the palace-spirit was exceedingly glad that it came across Alex. If it had given it Master's legacy to another person and then came across Alex, it would surely, everlastingly regret it action.

A body recovery pill appeared and entered into Alex's mouth. Then it turned into a large amount of healforce energy that flooded Alex's body and healed all the cracks and breaks in his bones and the severe wounds that his organs had sustained from that body-exploding fall.

After sometime, Alex's eyes sprung open.
