A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 166: Awaiting appearance of inheritor

Alex only smiled wryly.

Then he replied saying, "The aura of sharpness is strong, I can't go near it. Can you reduce or hamper it? And bring it to the ground level instead of just floating high in the air? I can't fly"

"Hmm!" The temple-spirit uttered.

Then in the next moment, many massive metal parts appeared and floated towards the compacted, highly-dense, energy sword. Once they got to it, they attached to the smooth surface of the energy sword and joined together. Then the lines at which they joined rapidly faded away as they fused becoming one whole part.

When they merged, forming a case for the energy sword, abstruse symbols appeared on the body of the sword-shaped case for the energy sword, then the seemingly boundless power of space-tearing sharpness emanating from the sword totally vanished as it was completely blocked from coming out. The symbols acted like enchantment spells to restrain the astronomical power of laceration continuously emitting from the energy sword.

"Alright. Its continuously rippling power of sharpness has vanished. Go take it since you want it" The voice of the temple-spirit rang out with a sense of mockery in it.josei

Alex said with a smile. "Well, I was only joking. I am not a mountain-overshadowing giant. But I seriously want it" Then he said further "Is this sword the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher wields?"

"Well, one of the three he uses" The temple-spirit said. Then it asked "Do you know why my master is called the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher?"

"Because he wielded two similar swords which were each colored silver and violet?" Alex asked.

"Yes Alex, you are right. He wielded twin swords which were each colored violet and silver. They are the Silver and Violet Banishing swords which are treasure-swords as they have voidstones plugged into sockets in them. While the one before you is another weapon he utilizes apart from the twin swords. It's called the Fiendbuster Heaven-Expulsion sword."

"Wow!" Alex said in a surprised tone. Then with curiosity in his tone, he asked "But it's too huge. How does he wields it in battle?"

"He used the vast telekinetic power available to him at that stage to wield the sword. He would release an invisible, astronomical-length, matter-movement field. Anything in this field; just about any form of objects enveloped by it can be moved about using the power of the field which he could control with his mind. Therefore, employing the power of this telekinetic field, the sword would be moved and used to cut opponents or structures." The temple-spirit said.

Alex nodded.

Then looking at the sword, he marveled at it great size. When he thought of it weight as the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher would use his mind to lift it and move it about, he couldn't help but be astonished.

'What degree of telekinetic power!'

To Alex, the shadow of the sword may probably overcast a massive, mountainous island which would have about thousands of mountains resting upon it. Then when he thought of the weight, judging from it size, he couldn't fathom it. He believed that it would be unimaginably heavy.

The sword which was formed from a vast river of swordforce energy was not really swordforce energy, it was sword originforce energy, a type of primordial realm-energy that only cultivation experts from the immortal stage would be able to sense and cultivate. And at the stage the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher reached, the density of the energy would be very high. Only a sliver of it would crush an entire mountain range with only the pressure emanating from it.

Trying to know how the heavy the sword was, to scale the telekinetic power of the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher, he asked "Temple-spirit, how heavy is the sword?"

"Hmm. Well, due to it density and the amount used to form it, it should weigh more than a small planet" The temple-spirit replied.

Alex became speechless.

So it was simply a world the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher threw about. Alex was deeply amazed and incredulous at the same time.

"What of the Silver and Violet Banishing sword? Can I take one of those with me?" Alex asked still not giving up yet.

If Alex could see the temple-spirit where it was, he would see it looking at him with a gaze that meant 'Why is this damned kid so stubborn?'

But when the temple-spirit thought of some things since it was as an entity that possessed great wisdom, it realized and understood why Alex was behaving like that. Then it spoke "I know that you want more treasures as you have gone through a lot of struggles which almost even resulted in your death. But the whole thing is for you. Everything in here is yours. After some time, at certain stages, the achievement scoring thing to get treasures would be removed and you would get treasures to the fill of your heart that it would overflow. Happy now?"

Alex nodded with a smile.

"Alright senior, when would I be able to I leave here?" He asked.

"Are you ready to leave?" The temple-spirit asked.

"Yes, but those guys. Wouldn't they be waiting outside for me? You can't teleport me outside. You would have to teleport me far away" Alex quickly said with fear in his heart before the temple-spirit would move him away using it space transference power.

"Of course, that's what I am going to do. I can't expose the inheritor of my master's legacy to harm. I would take you far away from here" The temple-spirit replied.

.........

At the moment, thousands of fearsome powerhouses had arrived in Alex's world. They had come here from the major worlds (Oververse) and grand worlds (Greatverse). They were actually called upon by the Saint-rank challengers who were returned to the outside world from the safe, non-battle zone they initially were in the temple.

So surrounding the temple, they awaited the inheritor to appear.

If one looked into their eyes, one would see that they shone with extreme curiosity. Their lordly gazes were filled with intense curiousness because they got information that someone in the condensation stage was able to mysteriously produce a saint-level power. So they were here to see that person and take him with them for study or research purposes.

It was simply amazing. The person's unparalleled unique ability.

But they had the knowledge that they wouldn't be able to take away the inheritor of the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher's legacy without a deadly battle. So they were ready. They had prepared many massive, spatial-trapping formations just to prevent the temple from moving through a different layer of space to evade them.

Then they waited.
