A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 248: Duel II

Drille had employed a method called 'Sky Cleaving Sword Lord Hand' from the sword-based methodology that he studied.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang! 

Bang!...

Loud bang sounds incessantly rang out as hundreds of the thousands of the short-sized, light energy-swords that were fired by Alex, impacted the massive palm with a momentum that gave the feeling that they wouldn't be stopped by any force.

Then due to their great numbers, and them being quasi-sky rank attacks, the massive palm formed from sharpness-energy tore apart into pieces, which then turned into slivers of swordforce energy that returned to the realmverse. Then the remaining sword-shaped attacks produced by Alex went on to impact Drille.

With anger now burning brilliantly in his eyes, he shot high again into the air.

Then at a greater altitude in the sky, he quickly released more swordforce energy from his hand which then rapidly condensed and shaped into swords that went on to impact the remaining energy swords that were shooting towards him with towering killing intents.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!...

More bang sounds rang out immediately after the opposing energy-attacks struck one another and produced terrifying waves of blinding, colored energies that raged into the distance at that height with unfathomable destructive force.

Not long, when the waves vanished, no attack could be seen in the air again.

They had simply canceled each other out.

Drille became exceedingly angry.

Then he produced a treasure-sword which began to glow as the sword energy-generating arrays contained in the voidstone started to operate.

"Bastard, you fucker will die now!" Drille's voice boomed out from the sky.

"I see that you are terribly frustrated. But what if I come to meet you up there? I am sure you would cough out blood" Alex said back with a booming, mocking voice.

"Meet me up here? Hahaha! I would love to see you try!" Drille said.

"You shall see" Alex said.

Immediately after Alex said that, a pair of enormous metallic wings appeared at his back. Then upon it activation, the Power of Flight began to emanate from the mechanical wings attached to his back. This then lifted him off the ground and high into the air, where he went to stay at the same altitude that Drille hovered at, but at a farther distance.

"So what about now?" Alex asked loudly with a mischievous smile surfacing in his face.

Seeing Alex surprisingly fly with the marveling treasure-wings that was attached to his back, and then coming to float at the same altitude that he floated at, Drille's eyes began to glow with extreme furiousness and viciousness.

Seeing Drille's exceedingly contorted facial expression, Alex grinned and then produced two firmament-rank weapons; also called sky-rank weapons, were weapons that were extremely useful for a cultivator at the Sky Lord stage.

Why Alex decided to produce treasure-weapons was because the system didn't tell him to not use weapons. It only stopped him from using his high-powered energies. Since he wasn't told not to, then he could bring out a weapon for his usage.

Now wielding two peerless-grade, firmament-rank swords which had many voidstones plugged into multiple sockets in them, Alex looked at Drille and gave a mocking smile.

Drille whose brows were furrowed, looked at his sword and saw only a single voidstone. Then he looked at Alex's who was at a far distance in air. And when he saw the amounts of voidstones the swords possessed, his mind reeled in great shock.

'What? Where did he get the two swords that each have twenty voidstones each?' He asked inwardly as his mind continually spun in astonishment.

Then his resolve to kill Alex began to waver, as great fright surfaced in his heart and engulfed it totally.

He was simply terribly scared by the damaging power of the attacks that the swords would release once they resumed their duel to the death.

However, a great doubt rapidly manifested in his heart which then eliminated the fear that had suffused his heart.

This doubt suddenly arose when Drille began to wonder if Alex would be able to actually withstand the aura of power and pressure that would be produced by the swords upon making them release energies from all the twenty voidstones plugged into the many sockets that they possessed.

Then he absolutely felt that Alex was only bluffing with his action. This was because he knew of course that Alex wouldn't be able to withstand the great power that would be produced by the swords.

Therefore, for that reason, he knew that Alex wouldn't try to fight him with all the energy-generating arrays in the voidstones activated, or he would bring about his doom by himself.

'Frighten me?'

Hahaha!

Drille began to laugh wickedly within.

'When I kill him, those marveling swords would become mine. Mine! Only the heavens know where the bastard got them from. Anyways, they would be mine soon. All I just have to do is to constantly look out for him so that he wouldn't escape from me, or that would just be bad and saddening' Drille said inwardly with a sly smile appearing in his face.

Then he focused on Alex with a cold gaze that also erupted unbridled, towering killing intent.

Why Alex produced the two multi-socketed treasure-swords was to frighten Drille and radically lower his confidence.

However, Alex also knew that the chipping away of Drille's battle-confidence, would only return and even grow stronger, as he could guess that Drille would think that he absolutely can't unleash all the energies in the twenty voidstones plugged into the two swords' sockets all at once.

Because of this, he absolutely knew that Drille would only take his action as a bluff, and then raise his own confidence too high that he could swept away by a tiny surprise.

Alex of course can't unleash all the energies produced by all the arrays in each of the twenty voidstones in the two swords.

However, there was still something that he could do.

Now looking at Drille, he prepared to enter another battle.
