A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 91: Battle with Gerald I

As Gerald unleashed more attacks, more cracks began to appear in the structure of the energy shield. The instructors became pale from fear and terror.

BANG!

BANG!

More loud bang sounds rang out as flurries of furious energy-attacks impacted the shield.

The student too were scared. They felt some bad guys were attacking the academy. They began to hope in their heart that the instructors would be able to repel the guys trying hard to attack them.

When Jennifer vanished from her room and reappeared at Gerald's place where she began to make a scene, Alex who had dashed to Jake's side compelled him to leave the academy for the meantime.

They were able to successfully sneak out of the school because the entire staff of the academy were at Gerald's place after Jennifer created a scene.

They journeyed far away from the school's location to another place in the city.

..........

Minutes later...

Bang!

Bang!

Gerald was relentless in his attacks. He laughed wickedly as more cracks appeared in the structure of the shield.

"I will destroy all of you. All of you I say. Just hope this shield doesn't collapse. Haha" Gerald said and gave an evil laughter.

Finally, with a loud, earth-trembling bang, the shield collapsed. The energy that constituted it dispersed and returned to the realmverse.

"What did I say I would do when this shield falls apart?" Gerald asked looking at the instructors who had begun to shake and had unbridled fright showing in their eyes.

The instructors couldn't respond. They only trembled in fear so hard they could just drop dead. They were terrified to this extent as they knew that their large numbers was nothing in front of a maniacal sage general-stage cultivation expert.

Just when Gerald would start an onslaught, Jennifer appeared in the far distance and launched a powerful, fearsome attack at him.

Swoosh!

Gerald heard the sound of something swooshing towards him. Then he quickly turned and smashed at that thing with his treasure-weapon.

Bang!

The energy-attack shattered but a powerful wave of blue energy surfaced from the collision and knocked Gerald dozens of feet away.

When he regained his balance, he looked in the direction the attack came from and saw Jennifer who was looking like a celestial warrior at the moment. She looked very charming and had many colorful, lustrous items on her that glittered beautifully in the light from the sun.

On her body could be seen an armor, claws that glowed and pulsated with power, a cape which fluttered in the wind, then a crown and a belt on her head and around her waist respectively.

She looked celestial in them because of their ravishing colors and the pulses of astonishing power emitting from them.

But a ferocious light could be seen emitting from her eyes. This fierce gaze of her's could be likened to that of an enraged dragon that would stop at nothing to devour all life.

Gerald looked at Jennifer. Or more precisely, at the offensive and defensive treasures on her. Then his eyes glittered.

"Where did she get these treasures from?" he asked inwardly.

Without saying a word to him, Jennifer sent out an attack.

"Golden Dragon Claws!"

She shouted and swung out her hands. The instant she did, golden metalforce energy instantly discharged from the claws. Or more precisely, from the voidstones affixed into the claws in great quantities.

These tremendous masses of energies condensed and shaped into many large claws that resembled that of a dragon and shot towards Gerald at high speeds.

Gerald, armed with a large broadsword which was a priest-weapon; a sage priest-rank weapon, confidently shot towards the claw-shaped energy-attacks and slashed out at them.

"Nine Deities Beheading Profound Slashes!" He shouted.

The instant he slashed out at the attacks, nine large masses of swordforce energies erupted from the sword.

Then they condensed and shaped into nine massive swords that caused the air for hundreds of feet around around each of them to slash apart in thousands of places.

The thousands of slashes in the air which were wide and long were visible since they were dark. This darkness was because they were devoid of air and other forms of matter and energy like dusts and light radiations respectively.

The instant the nine blades formed, they shot towards the incoming, huge claws of energy.

Bang! Bang!...

Many deafening sounds rang out as the energy-attacks heavily clashed into one another. The instant they collided, pulses of energies that could ravage entire towns appeared and moved into the distance in all directions at great speeds.

Although they fought high in the air, the shockwave that surfaced when the attacks collided caused the buildings of the academy to tremble intensely. Then cracks began to appear in their structure. If the buildings weren't made with sturdy materials, they would have collapsed at just the violent shaking of the air around them.

The instructors on the ground had to create protective domes with their energies to protect themselves from the waves of ravaging energies.

When the waves surfaced before Gerald, they struck him and sent him flying. But surprisingly, without an armor, he wasn't injured by the powerful, ruining energy waves that erupted from the collision of the attacks.

He looked at Jennifer who was far away with an evil smile. Then his voice boomed out as he asked "Jenny, where did you get these treasures from?"

"From your tombstone" Jennifer replied.

Then with a shout of a battle-method, she swung a hand out at Gerald.

"Heaven Warring Claw of Slaughter!"

The second she swung out her hand, a large amount of slaughterforce energy instantly erupted from the claw. This energy was a dual-colored energy as it was blood-red and silver in color.

The moment it rapidly discharged in a shocking quantity from the claw worn in Jennifer's hand, the energy abruptly condensed and shaped into a large, two-colored claw that spanned tens of thousands of feet in size. Then it shot towards Gerald at an astonishing speed.

The massive claw formed from slaughterforce energy radiated with a feeling that seemed it would butcher all existences. That it would reduce all things that have life to bits, including gods. That was the might emanating from the energy.

Emitting a long-range power that caused the blood in everyone's body to seethe violently such that it seemed they would burst out any moment and discharging a strong smell of blood that pervaded the air for thousands of feet, the claws shot forward at a high speed towards Gerald.

Gerald at the spot he floated in the air could feel the suppression of the attack as it caused his blood to roil. And the strong smell of blood that pervaded the atmosphere invaded his senses, preventing him from thinking straight. In his vision, all he saw was blood.

But he was a sage general-stage expert, he was able to quickly overcome the suppression brought upon him by the attributed attack. Grasping his sword tightly in his hand, he slashed out with a roar.

"Fiery Sword of Destruction!"

Then great amounts of swordforce energy and destructiforce energy discharged from the sword. The swordforce energy, an energy that emitted a resplendent aura of tyrannical sharpness was azure in colour while the destructiforce energy, an energy of destruction and desolation was grey-black in color.

Released with them was pyroforce energy; fire-elemental energy. Once it appeared along with the others, terrifying heat waves emitted from it.

The intensity of the heat coming from it was so vast one could describe it as the sun discharging heat radiations in the direction Jennifer was in.

The temperature of the area bathed by the heat shot up to an astronomical degree, to a level that the temperature at the heart of the molten core of the planet paled greatly in comparison.

Everything these frightening heat waves impacted began to vaporize. Even the air for thousands of feet greatly heated that it became a fiery, colored mass of hot gas that emitted sweltering heat and light.

If Gerald was facing the school with this energy, the instructors, students and every other staff employed would have burnt to ashes now or even evaporate away as the heat was great. But he was facing Jennifer with it.

Jennifer, at the spot she hovered in the air could see the effects of the thermal energy on the air, but it couldn't do anything to her as the distance she was in the air was very far away. Besides, she was protected by peerless-grade defensive treasures.

When the tyrannical energies Gerald produced mixed, they condensed and shaped into an enormous sword of three colors.

This sword spanned tens of thousands of feet in size; ninety-three thousand feet in length and width to be precise. It was astonishingly huge. He could reach that degree of immenseness as he was a sage general-stage cultivation expert.

The energy-attacks in the instant they materialized shot towards each other at extreme speeds from far distances. Illuminating the earth and dying the sky in their colour, they collided.

BOOM!!!

An earth-trembling sound surfaced and was instantly accompanied by terrifying pulses of energies that spread throughout the entire area in all directions.

When these energies extended into the distance, the part of the sky in this region became hidden by the raging, multicolored energies.

Spreading like a blanket beneath the sky to a distance of thirty thousand miles, they caused everyone under the sky in the area covered by the horrifying energy waves to look up with terror written all over their faces.

It seemed like the descent of a deity as everywhere trembled intensely the second the concealing layer of destructive energies appeared in the sky.

A powerful shockwave that surfaced from the collision moved through the air to the distances and caused many buildings to collapse to the ground as rubbles.

Alex and Jake in the place they hid themselves also noticed the phenomenon that was occurring. They saw the curtain of energies that had hidden the sky.

Alex knew what was happening. That a battle to the death was going on between Jennifer and Gerald. He hoped she would be able to slay the devious man because if he escaped, things would surely turn out awry for the both of them.

Many of the buildings in the college had collapsed to the ground. The students had to rush out of their hostel blocks before they collapsed on them.

There was intense worry in their faces. The battle was getting bigger and could result in their death if they didn't leave here.

Jennifer was struck by the energies and was heaved hundreds of feet into the distance. But they couldn't cause her significant damage as she was wearing many powerful defensive treasures.

The cape she wore upon activation stretched to a greater length and wrapped around her body several times. Then it stiffened, becoming like steel but thousands of times stronger than it.

While the crown on her head and the belt worn around her waist produced solid spheres of colored energies that protectively enclosed her figure.

As for Gerald, he was seriously injured. Floating in the air at where he was heavily knocked to by the devastating energy pulses, many breaks could be seen in his skin. Blood spurted from these cracks like fountains.

He swallowed many healing pills and these caused his body to rapidly heal. It boosted the regeneration abilities of his body.

"Those treasures on you are excellent. Tell me, where did you get them?" His voice boomed out again from that distance he floated in the air.

Jennifer, within two large energy spheres at a far distance replied with her mesmerizing feminine voice frigidly booming out.

"That was the same question that bitch asked when I killed her."

Haha!!

Gerald laughed loudly and everyone had to cover their ears.

"Nice one" he muttered.
