A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Then he came out of the room and focused his eyes to see far. It didn't work. But he didn't back down.

He continued to try to. After doing it for sometime, the distance suddenly drew closer in his eyes.

It was like his eyes became a telescope. He could see clearly what was in the distance.

"It worked!"

He became excited.

Then he tried to see if he could push the range further. He focused hardly, and his vision picked up from where it stopped and continued to move further into the distance.

Like it had an unlimited range, it continued to move. But then, it stopped at a place. And no matter what Alex did, it didn't increase.

His vision stopped at about six hundred feet away.

Wow!

This made him extremely glad.

If Alex could see his eyes at this moment, he would see that golden abstruse patterns had appeared in them.

His eyes had changed into another god-eyes it merged with.

It was these eyes that enabled him to see what was going on in thousands of worlds in the frightening dream he usually had about his father when he fought the people of the Sae-Uhl race.

This was the Heavenly Mystery Revealment eye or star-gazing god-eyes which he would know about later.

It had more than just see far. Alex would discover the rest of it abilities with time.

"Haha. I knew I could do it." he said inwardly. He believed with time he would be able to to see further than that.

Alex became elated that he had just discovered another wonderful ability. Then he uttered in his mind, "Truly blessed by the realmverse. It's like my abilities are infinite"

He recomposed himself and tried to see if he could detect smells or scents in the distance. He focused very hard but he couldn't do it.

After a long while of doing that, he saw he couldn't. Then he pouted. "Well, maybe it's not yet available to me." he said inwardly.

He went back inside.

It was night.

The others had started sleeping including Jake who was smiling. The way he smiled seemed he was doing something immoral in his dream.

Alex was bothered with his cultivation. He was still in the middle-phase entry stage all this while.

He shook his head.

"Being a deviant is a good thing and a bad thing at the same time." He said inwardly.

But he knew the reason for his slowness in cultivation was because he cultivated so many energies.

He had so many supernal battle entity-grade (A-grade) duality and trinity methodologies that caught his interest because of their plethoric godly techniques.

He marveled at their power and so he employed their cultivation techniques to enter harmony with their respective cultivation energies which he absorbed into his body.

Now he had more than fifteen cultivation energies.

Windforce energy being the first he long cultivated had more quality and quantity than the rest of his energies and was already at stage where it would shatter that boundary membrane to enter into the next cultivation layer. It had reached it peak and could break in anytime.

But it couldn't as the other energies Alex cultivated had to reach the level of quality and quantity it had reached. In other words, they were the ones holding it back.

It's a rule of this world that all energies cultivated must be of the same level before one could charge into the next realm.

He got up from bed and sat in the cross-legged position on the ground. He closed his eyes and began to cultivate darkforce energy.

This was one of the remaining five energies of the fifteen energies Alex cultivated that hadn't reached the level in quality and quantity others had reached.

He could cultivate darkforce energy by utilizing the cultivation technique in the 'Butchering Fiendgods Darkness Methodology'.

Motes of dark light gathered around him. They had suddenly appeared from nowhere.

When they appeared, they entered his body through his pores, then into his energy-channels (force-arteries) and down to his energyhouse where they fused with the mass of energy of darkforce energy gathered there.

The motes of dark brilliance became vastly numerous in number that they concealed his figure in their dark light.

If a heaven adept-stage cultivator heaven sense comes scanning, they won't be able to detect Alex in this encompassing speckles that gave out pitch-black light.

It is an energy of concealment, for stealth, for partial invisibility. It is less stronger in the day but extremely strong at night.

He cultivated till morning then he stopped. He didn't want the boys in the room to see him. He sat on his bed and closed his eyes. But he wasn't sleeping.

Today was another day of lecture.

"Another day of trouble." he said in his mind.

This was the third day since he came to this academy. He believed he would make it out.

Also he had begun to enjoy the academy. It was fun. He felt resentment for his uncle when he realized all that he had been missing. But he couldn't complain. It was for his sake.

While Alex went about with his activities. The entity in The Purifier's sword was slumbing. It still hadn't recovered it energy. Same with the control-entity in the Azure Beastsman's palace.

....

Once sunlight penetrated into the room, Alex's yes snapped open. He quickly got off his bed and went to shower. After showering, he put on his uniform and dashed to the lecture block.

If he was slow, Jake would tell him to wait for him. He would only end up going himself and very late. He had promised the teacher that takes the first class he wouldn't do that again.

At the time he left, although quite early, he met students on the way. These were also earlyrisers. They were going to their respective lecture blocks for classes.

Alex got into the first hall and settled down.

"You are very early today" someone came over and said with a smile. Alex looked at this person and nodded his head. "What can I do since I promised the instructor I wouldn't come late to his class." Alex replied.

The person nodded and went back to his seat.

.......

Jake got up from bed. He looked around and couldn't find Alex. "Where is this bastard? Did he leave me behind to go to class? Seriously? What an asshole" he said out loud.

The other guys that inhabited the room with him and Alex had also gone to their lecture blocks.

This showed he woke up quite late.

When he saw the time, his eyes widened. "Heck!". Then he rushed into the shower room.

Suddenly, the region between Alex's eyebrows tingled. He felt a strong tingling sensation there. Then he became greatly uneasy.

"Is something bad about to happen here again? In this hall?" he thought as he focused on his hearing.

He didn't know what stimulated the sensation he felt at the space between his brows. So he had to be very careful.

But to his amazement, nothing happened in here. Everyone's heart was calm but he was still cautious.

Then he began to think hard of what can bring about the sensation, he suddenly thought of instructor Micah and his insidiousness.

Then he looked around and focused more on his amplified hearing. Everyone's heartbeat in the hall were still beating at the normal rhythm.

From their heartbeat pattern which was calm, he believed nobody in here wanted to do anything bad to him. Regardless, he still felt he should be careful.

Then he thought of Jake. "What if it's him?"

His heart became erratic. Perhaps the harm was directed at Jake since he was related to him.

He looked at the time, it was still five minutes before class started. So he quickly left the hall.

By the time he would get to his hostel block. He saw Jake on the ground naked bringing foam from his mouth and convulsing.

Seeing him like that Alex's heart became exceedingly frantic. He quickly produced a peerless-rank heaven-tier healing pill.

This was a healing pill that would help heaven adept-stage cultivators heal.

He quickly fed his friend the pill. Then he looked around. He saw black powder on the ground.

"Powder?" he asked inwardly.

Then he looked at Jake's face. There was black powder on his face too.

He came to a realization that they blew the black powder in his face which Jake inhaled and caused him to be like this.

The powder must be poison.

"Instructor Micah!!"

He roared in his mind as a massive fire of rage erupted in his eyes.

Suddenly, his body transformed.

His hair turned dark purple, his skin crimson. Then patterns appeared all over his body and pulsed with power. Dark purple flames enveloped his figure.

Alex's heart shook when he saw the form he had taken.

He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Like that he began to take in breath that stretched his lungs to the maximum and out slowly through his mouth.

Then he recalled all the beautiful faces he had seen and the wonderful moments he had with each of them.

slowly, his anger began to abate. He did this to grind away the angry emotions in his heart.

Then he deployed his willpower on the divine physique forcing it to revert. After a few seconds, his body returned to normal.

He quickly looked into his dad's interspatial necklace at the things he sorted out for different cultivation realms.

He went to the poison-eliminating pills collections and picked up the one for a saint-stage cultivator. He wrapped a sliver of his consciousness around a bottle containing the pill and pulled it out of the necklace.

Once the bottle appeared. He quickly grabbed it and removed a pill from it. Then put it onto his friend's mouth.

His fingers were trembling as he did so. He didn't want his only friend to die. He was scared about Jake's fate.
