A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

The male looked on with a smirk. Fools!

Bang!

He hit the table in front of him with his palm. Then the table flew out hurling hardly into one of the men.

Argh!

This person shrieked in pain as the table smashed into him. The other men became even more furious and wanted to employ a battle method to deal with him.

Suddenly, the air in the inn became an unusually powerful gale. It swept them out through the door into the distance.

The male wearing a hat had already stood for action but became heavily surprised at the abrupt manifestation of strong wind gust in the inn.

"Why did that gale suddenly manifest? Is there a wind expert here?"

Then he looked around and saw a boy whose eyes glowed in cyan.

He was surprised and so were everyone when they saw Alex.

The boss of the group had also being washed outside by the unexpected powerful gale. He stood up in annoyance and screamed in rage to the sky. Then he rushed back into the inn.

The moment his leg stepped beyond the door into the inn. A hard kick was suddenly delivered in his face. This launched him into the distance.

It was a flying kick sent out by the male wearing a hat.

Then this male jumped out of the inn towards the boss in the distance while Alex rushed out of the inn to handle his minions.

"Sword Fist!"

"Nutcracker earth fist!"

The male wearing a hat and the Ironblood boss shouted at the same time. The moment the male shouted, swordforce energy gushed out from his energyhouse and wrapped around his fist making it glow in a resplendent light and giving the feeling of sharpness while the fist of the Ironblood boss turned yellow-brown as it was wrapped up in terraforce energy, giving the feeling of solidness and heaviness.

Bang!

Their fist collided and the man shrieked as he was flung into the distance. And on his hand could be seen many wounds. It was like he was cut there numerous times by a blade.

The hat-wearing male still standing where he was executed a roundhouse kick. As he kicked in the air, a thin ray of swordforce energy shot from the kicking leg.

Argh!!

The barbarous man screamed out in pain. The energy ray had penetrated through his shoulder leaving a thin hole there from which blood spurted out like a fountain.

The instant the Ironblood boss began duelling with the hat-wearing male, his men had also begun battling with Alex. They ran towards him but the air became violent amongst them.

But it didn't sweep them away. It only made their movement restricted. It became difficult to get to Alex while Alex was like a fish in water.

Then he sent out punches. Due to his innate body's toughness, the punches he sent out could crack concrete walls.

Bang!

Bang!.....

Crunch!...

Continuous bang sounds and crunch sounds rang out as the men were sent flying one after the other into the distance.

They landed unconscious to the ground. Their faces had caved in from the punches Alex sent out.

Alex's punches were not powered by any form of energy. Yet, they lifted these men off the ground and hurled them into distance. And these were men that had three to four times Alex's body size.

His steel-hard punches had driven them to unconsciousness and pressed their face in. They looked like monsters at the moment due to the disfigurement of their faces.

The Ironblood boss got up with fury in his eyes from where he landed. Enduring the pain that racked him. He shouted.

"Destroying gaia fis.."

But before he could unleash a battle technique, a thin beam of swordforce energy shot towards him again at extreme speed. This ray of energy cut through his chest but not where the heart was.

Argh!

This man screamed in pain and fell to the ground on both knees. Still having a bit of consciousness, he produced a bottle containing pills and poured all into his mouth.

Then his wounds quickly healed. He had swallowed dozens of healing pills. He looked at the boys with an evil gaze, then he coldly snorted and left, leaving his men behind. He didn't bother himself about them.

The hat-wearing boy came over to where Alex stood.

"You are pretty powerful" he said.

Alex smiled.

"You have good fighting skills" he replied.

The male smiled.

"Come with me, let's go back into the inn"

Alex nodded.

People in the street looked at the boys and their eyes glittered with amazement. These boys must be from academies. Perhaps they are out to gain experiences. So they thought.

The lady rushed over to their side and thanked them wholeheartedly. Same with her workers for rescuing their boss. Then she led them into the inn to a table where she ordered her workers to bring for them anything they wanted to eat.

"I hope he doesn't come here again or I would surely kill him." he said.

Alex's eye glittered with surprise.

"It seems you have killed a lot of people before?" he asked.

"Yes I have. I was forced to actually. At first, I was devastated but I became used to it" he smiled and looked at Alex. "You?"

Alex shook his head.

"Well, I haven't". He said with a smile. 

"Hmm. Okay. So what's your name and where are you from?" Jake asked.

"My name's Alex. I am from Smith city. What about you?" he replied and asked.

"Smith city? In what state is that?" the hat-wearing male asked again.

"Well.. Trandon" Alex replied.

"Oh. I haven't heard of that before. My name's Jake. It's nice knowing you." he replied.

"Same here".

After a slight pause, Alex asked "So what are you doing here?"

Jake smiled.

"I am sorry I can't tell you that. What about you?" he asked.

Alex smiled too.

"I am sorry, I can't tell you that too." He replied.

Jake smiled and shook his head.

"Alright. I would tell you. I am a rogue cultivator. I believe you know what rogue cultivators are. So, I am just out here to gather experiences and develop myself" he said.

"Awesome. I am also a rogue cultivator. I am out here to develop myself too. I will not return home until I reach the earth realm" Alex said.

Jake's eyes glittered with amazement.

"Aren't you being too harsh on yourself? You can't just jump into the earth adept realm. It could take years if not decades. So what would you be doing out here till that time or is it a punishment by your family?"
