A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 225: Absorption continues...

Once Alex's body absorbed the energy, the pain caused by the dark black flames that burned blazingly on his body vanished. The only pain that he now felt was the pain of his bones which were reduced to pieces due to the impact, and then many of them jutting out of his skin.

Like as if the sky felt that the dense, flaming column that it shot at Alex wouldn't really crush him into pieces and burn him into nothing, it changed it form of attack.

Then the large area of the sky which was fiery in appearance, actually changed into another color. It became dark violet. And as soon as this color manifested, a kind of gale-force wind that was surprisingly visible since it was surprisingly dark violet in color, and had the power to simply reduce mountains into bits because of the sharpness attributes, incineration attributes and destruction attributes that it possessed, appeared and began to violently move about in the area that Alex received his tribulation.

Once it appeared and began to sweep about in the area with incredible sharpness, heat emissions, and an astonishing destructive power, it shot with a beast-like roar towards Alex who was in the crater and was rapidly recovering from the injuries sustained from the tribulation-type attacks, after swallowing many peerless-quality healing pills.

Alex would have produced a sky-rank or heaven-rank armor to protect himself from the tribulation attacks, but he couldn't as when the realmverse perceives the pulse of power emanating from the armors which would be in the Sky Lord stage or Heaven Adept stage, it numerous attacks would upgrade in tier and Alex would start receiving Sky-level and heaven-level tribulation energy-attacks. That was something he wouldn't want and wouldn't be able to withstand if it ever happened. So it was better to receive the attacks with his body alone than depend on armors that would cause the attacks that shot out from the sky to increase greatly in power. It was also for this reason that the treasure-spirits of the Azure Beastsman treasure-palace and the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher treasure-temple didn't appear to help him against the tribulations that he was facing, or if they did, the attacks that descended from the sky would suddenly possess a great destructive power that would totally destroy Alex once it struck him. That was something they wouldn't visualize or dream of.josei

When the violet-colored wind which possessed extreme sharpness, emitted sweltering heat and radiated power to destroy all things, shot ragingly into the crater in the earth, it engulfed Alex's figure and began to swirl around it, becoming a huge, violet-colored cyclone within the crater.

With Alex within, it revolved around him like a devastating whirlpool of air as it tried to reduce Alex's body to pieces, and turn the pieces into cinders, while simultaneously radiating the aura of destruction that would crush Alex to death. It was simply a multi-attributed attack.

Arghhhhhhhhh!!!

Once this fearsome, unceasing attack initiated, Alex started to unendingly scream in pain, and that at the top of his voice. His arms and feet which had reformed earlier because of the powerful healing pills that he took were quickly being diced into pieces. Same with his body that was being rapidly shredded, lacerated and burned. 

It was like he was in a very hot furnace and was surrounded by hundreds of invisible vicious beings who were masterly skilled in the art of butchery and slaughter, and were using their large butchering knives and meat cleavers to cut apart the flesh on his body and break the bones of his skeleton.

In the next second, the skin and bones on his arms and legs vanished. Same with the ones on his chest, abdomen and back.

However, a new skin immediately appeared, and bones instantly formed in his body again.

Alex who had done a mental calculation had quickly swallowed so many healing pills, just for the reason of stopping his skin from being ripped or slashed away by the sharpness-attacks, and his bones from being shattered into fragments by the power of destruction given off by the furiously swirling cyclone that engulfed his figure.

Therefore, as his skin continuously, instantly slashed apart in many places, and his bones immediately shattering into bits, new ones rapidly appeared, preventing the rampant slashing, burning and crushing attacks of the tribulation-cyclone from totally destroying Alex's body.

So that was how the cycle of vicious slashing/ripping and super-quick healing continued.

Arghhhhhh!!!

Still screeching continuously in pain due to the skin that tore or slashed away every second, and the bones that unstoppably crushed into pieces, Alex tried to focus on his wind cultivation method.

Once he employed the wind-energy absorption technique of the wind trinity methodology that he studied, he uttered again, with a determination and a type of faith that couldn't be overshadowed by the dread and terror of every living thing in the realmverse over the total collapse or complete decimation of the billions of worlds that they were in.

"Absorb!"

Once he said this, thousands of abstruse symbols appeared on his body again. And now emitting the Power of Suppression, the violet-colored cyclone that had engulfed Alex's figure and tried to reduce him into pieces couldn't cause much injury to his body again.

Then with the power to absorb everything under the realmverse and in the inaccessible spaces in the realmverse, the essence of the cyclone that revolved around Alex's figure was suddenly drawn into Alex's body through his pores.

If Olivia was here, she would see a violet-colored, mist-like substance exude from the cyclone and enter into Alex's body. And that the cyclone which was extremely large in size, beginning to rapidly reduce in size; right from the one hundred and twenty feet in height that it was at, to a height of hundred feet. But it didn't stop here as it size continued to rapidly decrease in size.

The suppressed essence of the tribulation-wind which flowed down Alex's energy veins to his energyhouse, permeated the pool of windforce energy in his energyhouse and change it color from cyan to dark violet. And once it was infused with the multi-attributed essence of the tribulation wind-energy which was simply windforce energy that possessed three intents which were sharpness intent, incineration or combustion intent, and ultimately, absolute decimation or ruination intent, the wind-energy core began to emit three different waves of power. It now radiated the aura of terrific sharpness, instant-vaporizing heat, and then the aura of calamitous-scale destruction.

Although they released these fierce and alarming auras which would invoke great fear and terror in anyone, they weren't at that level yet because of Alex's cultivation stage. However, his windforce energy which possessed divineforce energy that increased it quality (density) to a certain shocking degree, was now further augmented to a great degree by the infusion of the essence of the tribulation wind-energy into it. And since it density had increased, it now possessed more damaging power. Besides, it now possessed three new attributes that would increase the destruction output of his wind-based attacks.
