A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Actually, it was seven rippling pulses of Saint-level power that was erupting from his body. And one should know what this meant, which was that he had summoned seven physiques. He now had the ability to evoke more than nine physiques if he wanted to since he had many powerful, profound Soul-Entities which he could use to power his super-powered form for sometime before he's fully drained of soulforce energy or soul-power. However, the only thing that would hold him back from using them for a very long time was mental exhaustion.

In the instant that the seven pulses of power discharged from his body, some sections of his body erupted different, brilliant colored glows which would absolutely burn the retina of anyone that looked at it. So, this dazzling resplendent light coupled with the prismatic light coming from the twelve-meter long crystalline tail dyed the lake at that depth in their numerous luminous colors.

The various bright lights shone in the large eyes of all the wrathful beasts and caused them to abruptly close their eyes as the glaring colorful light instantly caused them severe ache in their eyes. Also, they were dazzled for sometime because of the extreme intensity of the intensely brilliant multicolored light which badly affected their eyes.

In the next second that the colorful lights erupted from his body, several stunning transformations abruptly took place.

At his back, nine large bones which were about six feet long and looked like blades appeared at his back. Then surprisingly, these bones which were shaped like blades had hundreds of tiny veins in them in which something like lava could be seen flowing in them like it was an actual blood.

This was a transformation that belonged to the 'Great Fieryblood Boneblade Reptilian Beastgod physique'.

While one of his arms became large in size and was covered in thick, inky black furs which made it look like it was the arm of a dark-furred grizzly bear. However, the fur-covered arm was large in size that it could be easily said to be many times the size of the arm of an award-winning, accomplished weight lifter. Also, the hand of this particular super-sized furry arm was surprisingly golden in color which made it look it was a hand carved from real gold metal. In addition, it was large in size, invoking the feeling that it was the hand of a golden giant. While a few cryptic symbols that strangely glowed with a dark black radiance could be seen on the surface of this golden hand. Then small prism-shaped projections which were also golden in color and possessed dark scarlet tips could be seen on the surface of the huge golden hand.

This particular transformation of a section of his body which was his arm belonged to the 'Uncanny Heaven-Warring Sky-Seizing Golden Furry Ape Beastking physique'

His other arm had also transformed due to the evocation of a particular physique. Also quite large in size, moving around it in the air could be seen a number of small cyan disks, concentric circles, spirals and helixes that were solid, tangible objects which were condensed from the power possessed by this particular physique. Then on the surface of the arm could be seen many animated characters. These characters which were basically cryptic texts, seemingly occultic symbols, profound signs and mysterious shapes could be seen moving on the entire surface of that particular arm which then merged to form many diagrams that also abruptly changed to form new, entirely different diagrams. Only in that few seconds, hundreds of diagrams that their forms or meanings couldn't be comprehended by anyone had been birthed by those characters that merged together. While the solid, cyan-colored helixes, concentric circles, disks and spirals revolving around the arm caused the rapid appearances of huge, illusory objects around Alex's figure.

This transformation of his other arm belonged to the 'Myriad Infinite Weapon Diagram Creator physique'

On his chest could be seen a large, triangular crystal that glowed in a brilliant colorful light. While within this crystal if one could look into it, ignoring the eye-burning brightness that it produced, one would see spheres that looked like real worlds. Actually, the expanse in the glowing triangular crystal was vast and boundless, so it could simply be likened to the void or the infinite space of the realmverse. Then in this unbounded expanse were spheres that looked like actual worlds; ones that humans and other living things could live in. However, these massive worlds weren't inhabitable ones as they were meant to crush other worlds and ruin galaxies and star systems. This physique was the 'Apocalypse World Desolating Star Collapsing Primordial Sunderance Divine Physique'

On his forehead were about five eyes that were arranged at different points where they formed a pentagonal pattern, which then made it seem like a star which consisted of eyes was engraved on his forehead. Then in these eyes were different mystifying patterns and diagrams that revolved in them. While one which was blood-red in color and was quite larger in size than the other eyes which formed the star, could be seen at the center of the star composed from eyes due to their placements. This particular blood-red eye had a massive, dark pyramid floating in it. Then above it could be seen a vast, seemingly boundless purple cloud. One would see this if one looked into this particular eye that seemed like the eye of a blood-devouring fiendish devil king. This transformation that took place on his forehead belonged to the 'Mana and Blood Consuming Arcane Gaze Star-Eyed Demon Monarch physique'

At his back but at his waist region were nine scorpion-like bony tails that were huge in size and were covered in thick furs. And since they were like the tails of scorpions, the stingers at the ends of these tails which glowed like they were extremely hot, were silver in color like they were forged from actual silver metal. While the tips of these glowing silvery stingers which were dark green in color surprisingly fumed, indicating the level of corrosive poison that they may possess. Also, thousands of small bony projections with exceedingly sharp tips that were also colored dark green could be seen around the entire surfaces of the nine large tails, but they were completely hidden from view by the thick furs that covered the nine massive bony tails. This transformation was from the 'Nine-Tailed Toxicheart Flesh-Eating Silver Scorpionking Physique'

Then finally, the seventh transformation were two pairs of massive, snow-white, bat-like wings condensed from the power of Ice and frost. Also, two snow-white, buffalo-like horns could be seen on either sides of his head. While a straight, larger horn with anciently inscriptions on it entire surface could be seen at the center of the horns at the sides of his head. This particular towering horn possessed a large white orb that floated some inches above it and emanated terrifying coldness. This transformation was from the 'Five-horned Supreme Ice and Frost Sovereign Ice Bat King physique'

Although the physiques sounded very powerful, they were still only at the Saint level since they were Saint-tier physiques. However, due to the peak Saint powers that they possessed and if their individual, full-powered attacks were fused into one whole attack, there would be a multiplicative effect on the damage that it could deal or inflict on the target that it would strike. But Alex could have used the True God-eyes of Grand Destruction and the God-eyes of Ice World Creation and Glacial Desolation instead of going through this route. He however didn't do so in the end since the destruction-power from the destruction God-eyes could make him fall unconscious and be eaten by a beast that could be lurking around. Same also went with the coldness-power of the Frost God-eyes since he could end up freezing himself. Especially now that he was deep in the cold water of a massive lake. His reason for this was because he hadn't perfectly learnt how to skillfully deploy and focus their astonishing powers on his targets. So he couldn't take such a risk. Besides, he wanted to test the degree of his physique-summoning ability because of his utmost confidence in the amount of Soul-Entities that he created. And to his amazement, he was able to conjure up eight physiques and not feel too drained and taxed. But due to mental exhaustion, he knew that he would have to revert to his normal form sometimes later.

Layla who was in the Azure Beastsman palace saw that Alex's body had further transformed and her deeply puzzled eyes couldn't help but glow in intense astonishment.

'But how is he doing all these?' She asked within as her mind was sent reeling in great shock and curiosity.

Then she recalled Alex's uncle and the strength that was rumored to be possessed by him. But now, she knew that their rumors were completely wrong. She now absolutely believed that he would possess far more strength than the one that he was gossipped to have. Then she suddenly developed an endlessly echoing feeling in her heart that Alex and his uncle could possibly from an higher world, maybe like an Oververse, for what she was watching currently can never be done by any cultivator in this backwater world.

Her eyes then glittered beautifully when she arrived at this deduction.

Immediately Alex transformed which only took a few seconds, he quickly produced The Purifier's sword and then dashed at a great speed towards the beasts.
