A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 222: Cultivation

"Okay, go study that Nailah. If you find some things difficult to understand, you can come to me or Olivia for explanations." Alex said.

Nailah nodded. Then she sat on Olivia's bed and tried to mimic her cultivation position.

Olivia saw this and laughed.

"Nailah, any position is okay. It isn't necessary to copy my posture. What is important is understanding the methods mentioned and gaining attunement to the energy that you want to cultivate. But if you like my posture and want to adopt it, you can go right ahead." She said and then ruffled Nailah' s hair.

Nailah smiled and nodded her head.

Then she immersed herself into the large cultivation book that Alex gave her.

At this point in time, Alex had closed his eyes as he submersed himself in his own world of comprehension.

Splitting his mind into many using his peerless multi-tasking ability, he began to combine several battle skills that he knew about into new skills.

He merged this and that together to form many new battle skills. Then he tried to mentally test them using his powerful visualization and his Ultra Perception state which he entered to power his mental imageries of them.

The ones which he felt that didn't possess enough fearsomeness to his taste were scrapped, while the ones that possessed a high degree of fierceness and lethality were named and added to his vast, mental book of deadly battle skills.

After many hours of doing this, he opened his eyes.

He noticed that the room was quiet, then he turned around to see if Olivia and Nailah were still cultivating. But he saw no one.

He thought for sometime where they could be, then he arrived at a thought that Olivia had probably taken Nailah to a place were she would be able to feel the light so that she could cultivate it.

After thinking of this, he closed his eyes again to cultivate.

Immersing himself into his world of cultivation, he thought of how his body always absorbed energy that entered his body. Just like the divineforce energy from his mother, the numerous primordial realm-energies from the Beyonder which altered his body on a vast scale, the sexforce energy from Karen and now, the poisonforce energy from Jared.

He began to wonder how his body was able to to accomplish this.

He believed that if he was able to perfectly control that absorption power, his cultivation speed would no know bounds or limits. He needed to comprehend that unparalleled, energy-based suction power of his body.

With his eyes still closed, he recalled the attributes of the five energies that were still at the mid-phase condensation stages in his energyhouse. These energies which were Darkforce energy, Phantasmforce energy, Speedforce energy, Strengthforce energy and Radiantforce hadn't leveled up because of there was no energy-cultivation pill for them. Unlike the rest that had pills which Alex swallowed to upgrade them, these didn't have pills, so that's why he suffered a setback in his cultivation progress.

But now, he wanted to tap into that unimaginable power of his body to boundlessly and rapidly absorb every from of energy that his body would ever come across.

Sending his powerful perception into the surrounding, he tried to pull the energies that he wanted to cultivate into his body.

With only one word in his mind which was 'pull', he tried hard to draw the energies that he wanted to cultivate to his body.

Therefore, like an unceasing chant in his mind, trying to force the activation of the immense pulling power of his body, he uttered the word 'Pull, pull, pull...'

Unknowing to Alex, as he tried to force his body to draw energy from the environment, thousands of abstruse symbols began to gradually appear on the surface of his body. And as they appeared, a storm slowly surfaced outside.

The villagers who were already out of their homes and were discussing happily with one another saw the large black clouds that had suddenly appeared and caused the sky to darken. These large clouds that had appeared were from different areas of the sky that were pulled towards Alex because of the pulling force that continually emitted from his body. 

Olivia and Nailah noticed this phenomenon and began to wonder what was happening again.

Olivia then suddenly felt that Alex should be the one responsible for the appearance of the large clouds in the sky. And just when the thought that she should go up and see what he was doing surfaced in her mind, strong winds suddenly appeared and began to move about in the entire village.

When Olivia looked around, she saw to her extreme shock that the strong winds that had appeared were actually colored. And there were five of these colors, which meant that there were five colored winds.

But Olivia who wasn't like the mortals who kept wondering why the winds possessed colors, knew that the strong winds that moved ragingly around them weren't actually winds, but fast-moving currents of energies in their gaseous phase. So, since the five different energies existed in the gaseous states; appearing as gases, one would think that they were winds which possessed colors.

"Nailah, stay with me" Olivia said.

Then she firmly grabbed Nailah by the hand, pulled her to her side, embraced her tightly and then planted her feet firmly into the ground using her Power of Earth since she cultivated Terraforce energy.

The currents of energies were just too strong, or they would swept away by it into the distance, and this could result in multiple injuries for them.

After doing this, she sent her

earth-power out to keep the panicking villagers feet firmly planted to the earth, just so they won't be shoved away by the tide-like energy currents that roared furiously in the air around them.

Alex who wasn't paying attention to what was happening below was deeply submerged in his inner cultivation world.

In this world, he felt at peace with the true world. Besides, some heavenly sensations began to wash through him. And as it did so, all the filths of the world that he had accumulated in his body since he was born began to eject from the pores of his skin. However, they weren't much as many of these filths had been expelled from his body long ago when he first started cultivation.

Not long, the five energies that appeared and rampaged about, shot like furious gales towards him.

Any cultivator who was in Alex's cultivation stage or below and was in the way of these berserk energies that moved with a lot of force, would be seriously injured by them.

But when they swept through Alex's figure like they wanted to hurl him out of this world and into the void, his body which was like a thin piece of wood in a large windstorm surprisingly, effortlessly withstood their great ferociousness. Then they totally engulfed his figure and began to force their way into his bodies.
