Pure, Gushing; Playfulness

"NOOO!!" The ship's company went crazy seeing Ciemnosc suddenly try to tear open the barrier, they had already seen what one Mortal edged weapon could do, 2 of them would be devastating even if it wasn't as comparable terrorizing as another grand explosion of pure energy inside just like the one outside.

The thought of their captain’s death didn’t even cross through their mind as some even tried on and went over to Ciemnosc to stop him, to kill him, to not die!!

But Ciemnosc immediately stepped away from the 2 gnashes, the 2 cuts, that his Mortal swords had easily made to the light green barrier. And for just a moment, a tiny bit of it slipped into the other side of the barrier.

The translucent, transparent pure whitish cloud of beauty then began swarming into the inside of the ship’s protective barrier array formation, letting those who were rushing at Ciemnosc incapable of even feeling helpless as some strands of pure energy pursuing Ciemnosc’s body dashing away went through their bodies.

Without any dramatization, the body of a cultivator not even that near the 2 cuts was penetrated through his left shoulder, right above his heart but below the top of his shoulder, while the strand of pure energy continued to pursue Ciemnosc’s back as he went from cannon to cannon and picked them up like footballs with just one hand, his Mortal swords already stored and both his hands separating the cannons from the ship’s gunwale all around.

Dash, step- whoosh, dash, dash, dash, step- whoosh…

Ciemnosc went as fast as he could, even ending up destroying most of the flat of the ship as he dashed around, finalizing what the indiscriminate firing of the 8 and then 2 cannons did to the ship. Strand of pure energy after strand of pure energy kept on following him, forming a sort of painting that was becoming tragically beautiful; also beautifying the ship that was coming to be torn to pieces and large chunks of its structured body.

But he didn’t directly see what it did to the other cultivators as soon as they touched them, because whenever his body was reached by one of those strands, a large burst energy was immediately overcome by his dark Power Energy, as if becoming corroded and tainted with his darkness while the rest of the pure energy willingly let itself become corrupted and filthy. From its beautiful white appearance to a most ‘fallen-down’ complete blackness.

But towards any other, the moment their bodies were touched by the fast moving strands of pure energy from that in…credible grand explosion, they would stop and become stiff not as if they were suddenly pained in some way but as if their entire bodies became porcelain; jade-like.

Their bodies would begin to crack open then, no blood, bones, muscles,veins or even the darkness within one’s body when closed up could be seen lighting up. Only a whiteness so clear that is blinding would be seen from their bodies, as even their skin wouldn’t look like skin anymore; just a couple of moments later.

As the strands of that grand explosion’s pure energy moved too fast for even the Conflagrate realm captain back when he was still alive, just seconds before tragedy struck for the second time after the grand ‘stagnant’ explosion, Ciemnosc moved even faster and with the same agility than that of the strands of pure energy.

Meanwhile, the bodies of the other cultivators touched by them which were becoming as if bloated by that blinding-like whiteness and slowly turned to little nothing; it was all as if in slow motion while the strands of pure energy didn’t manage to touch everyone for even those who were nearest to the 2 cuts on the barrier.

Dash… step, step step step step step step step! Stomp, sweesh~... Crsspsshaaft- crsspsshfft!

But even then, the cultivators who weren’t touched didn’t feel safe, the strands of pure energy might have been dancing all this while, but the explosion from before was still going and it was the same as just before, growing invisible to the naked eye and slowly slipping into the protective barrier’s other side. Only that its method of entering was getting more and more disorderly, and its behavior was becoming more erratic… as if playing with Ciemnosc and losing ‘its’ cool.

BOOM!

And before the cultivators could even garner enough courage to stand up and try to escape while moving within the strands of pure energy left behind wherever their ‘tips’ passed, Ciemnosc had already stopped dashing around, collecting what could very well have been the last cannon on this ship. But such a thing didn’t matter to the remaining few survivors from hundreds.

Yet, when they noticed that Ciemnosc was now running away and going from the middle of the ship all the way to its bow and suddenly breaking all of the bow section of the ship with one single stomp of both his feet against the wooden flatness, his body flew into the air while those left behind to their deaths only looked at his back and bum while both his hands were starting to make a strange gesture.

Ciemnosc held both his arms up above his head, the top of his face facing the light green barrier of the ship in the middle while he went from jumping from the ship on the left to the one in the middle. His body easily went through from the inside to the outside of the ship on the left, while his arms above his head placed together his wrists and the lower section of his palms, when a pair of handles appeared in-between his hands.

Immediately, both his hands held tightly onto the Mortal swords’ handles, whose tips this time didn’t even took a moment before they both, together and hitting the same spot while making a few clashing sparks to occur when colliding together against the light green barrier, to penetrate through it and let Ciemnosc create an even larger gap than before with just one Mortal sword.

Ciemnosc’s arms rapidly spread his arms, each hand holding even more tight each handle and widening the gap with the top of his head crossing over to the next ship behind its protective barrier. When his torso was also awfully twisting to cross over to the ship in the middle, he swung his swords down to his legs; stopping in midair while the gape became wider and the swords’ edges acted as separators to end up making a 2 meters wide gap at the light green barrier.

With cracks all around the 2 meters wide gap, almost making a black-like color from the incredibly massive number of cracks appearing all around it, the strands of pure energy from the grand explosion were no longer just strands and those which didn’t even manage to get attached to Ciemnosc’s back, skin, clothes or hair for at least a couple of seconds all became one single, wave-like swooping pure energy stream that rushed right behind him to the next ship.

“RUUUN! NO- AAAAAHH!!!” - “GET AWAY, NO, PL- PLEASE-...!!!” - “WAAAAAAAAAAGGHH!!”

Whoosh- swah swish- pshiiiiff~~tt!

Ciemnosc ignored the yelling and screaming enemy cultivators, passing through them as something blurry, 4 inches thick and that could extend for even a couple dozen meters without a problem went left and right from his body while his right and left hand and arms swung about as if holding onto that thing but nobody could see it; not even the Conflagrate realm.

On the other hand, the wave-like body of pure energy streaming in a gushing, rushing motion towards Ciemnosc increased its speed, but lost the agility from before and with Ciemnosc simply running from the bow of the ship in the middle towards its stern was jumping up and down sometimes and dashing left and right diagonally like a lightning bolt from time to time.

Push, tap- pshiiifft~! Crash, crush crush, splaaasshhh… Tap- pshiiifftt~! CRASH, crush~~!

The wave-like body of pure energy, not even 1 meter in diameter from its head but longer than 100 meters already and becoming larger the more Ciemnosc made it swing around, diving below the ship and destroying anything and anyone where it passed through, making gaping, clean holes out of the ship nonstop as even the water of the Little Lake seemed to surge with the mere presence of this wave-like body of pure energy.

Everywhere Ciemnosc went, the wave-like body flowed in midair and made everything a mess or a clean gone-through-hole that was even as if an anaconda had gone through mud and the mud just solidified wherever it went past through. Meanwhile, Ciemnosc kept on sending his ‘whip’ out to collect the 10 cannons, not letting a single one be harmed by the wave-like body of pure energy streaming about with intensity.

Being scampered by this stream of pure energy, Ciemnosc could see with his Spirit Sense how it was becoming wider and thicker farther to its ‘lower body’ as its head followed him relentlessly and Ciemnosc even… felt some joy from ‘playing around’?!

‘What the f… since when does pure energy have… … !’ Ciemnosc was collecting cannons left and right but also thinking hard as he was being pursued by the wave-like body of pure energy, never imagining that this would have been what could happen in the slightest; it seemed he was still too ignorant of the world.

Tshing~, tshing~.

Ciemnosc took out his thin Mortal swords once again, first taking out his left handed one while his extended out right arm and open right palm that were aiming to his right, just then to his front but right now a bit behind himself as he kept rushing to the stern of the ship, collecting the last cannon before lowering his arm the same as with his left arm and another thin Mortal sword appeared.

Both his arms aiming the tips of his swords below at the sides of his feet, Ciemnosc rushed with all of his strength while bodies kept popping into semi blinding whiteness and turning into more fuel for the already noticeably growing grand explosion of pure energy by the naked eye.

Step, step, step, step! Pshift, pshift, pshift, pshift!

The wave-like body of pure energy might have lost its agility from before, but its speed had increased to the point that Ciemnosc had increased his own speed by more than half from the previous one, and that was already with even Conflagrate realm not being able to see him other than a blurry image moving very fast by; let alone now that the strange pure energy followed him like this.

Only with around a meter but not much more nor less than that, the pure energy scampered Ciemnosc as he finally made his jump with his full force, his bodily strength fully activated and without his prepared knowledge, that somehow ‘incited’ the wave-like body of pure energy.

Whoosh… … … pshift… pshift? Pshift… PSHIFT… PSHIIIIFT… KA-KA KKKA- KA BOOOM!!!!

Ciemnosc jumped without looking back, knowing well that thing seemed to be wanting to chase him to the end of times, and he had not that much time to waste around. Barely jumping into the air, he moved his body and rotated to face the light green barrier of the ship on his right for when he was observing them all, crossing through the light green barrier from the ship in the middle from the inside to the outside flawlessly.

Just like before, he crossed the barrier from the inside, but it wouldn’t be the same for the next barrier. And with the soles of his feet now facing the next light green barrier of the protective array formation… Ciemnosc’s tips of his thin Mortal swords were aimed at the barrier just beside each foot to the left and right, when the 4 of them collided against the barrier all at the same time.

The moment it happened was tremendous! The barrier itself bounced because of Ciemnosc’s bodily strength and it also began cracking all around as it bounced for a range of about 2 meters in and out of the barrier’s stagnant position. But Ciemnosc’s body was all too still and hitting on a spot, one that remained completely still unlike in every other millimeter of the light green barrier.

The grand explosion’s pure energy covering the west was also jumping, bouncing and returning all about along with the light green barrier that had gone awry, as if it was also seemingly liking it so much that it began playing back with the barrier itself. But the pure energy began cracking the light green barrier as well from the western side that it faced.

However, the sound of it was completely eclipsed by the surrounding pure energy and the other section of the same from behind him. From before, the grand explosion of pure energy was already barely growing, covering an entire side of the ships’ side, which were now exploding into just nothing.

And now, that cloud of the grand explosion was now visibly, noticeably growing, already covering the top of the barriers and beginning to cover the front and rear of where all 3 ships were just less than a minute ago as Ciemnosc spent not even that amount of time while running from ship to ship and passing from enemy cultivator to enemy cultivator nonstop; mostly male.

Now that there weren’t even those protective barriers, completely eaten away by the pure energy increasing its size evermore and suddenly at times as well, the last ship was completely about to be engulfed by pure energy and Ciemnosc knew; only its hull was somewhat safe as if the Little Lake didn’t want to ‘play back with them’ and was just resisting… for the time being.

On the other hand, Ciemnosc was just in the middle of the last ship remaining, when he heard a set of strange energy noises come to an end… as an even greater explosion than the already ‘grand’ explosion of energy was.

The set of noises, he could track it very well to the last place he stepped on before using all of his bodily strength to jump onto the ship he was now on. And it also, indeed, seemed to come from the very same wave-like body of pure energy that had been chasing him.

At first, it seemed to then - finally and truly take life for itself, but it then became confused, as if wondering to itself. And just as Ciemnosc was wondering about it while collecting the cannons of the last ship remaining, halfway there, he noticed ‘its’ sounds changing; as if having comprehended something…

There was then, barely, any time for even Ciemnosc to react, as the next sounds were incredibly loud and even made his ears rumble; booming. Before he could even think of sending dark Power Energy to his ears and the rest of his sensorial systems, Ciemnosc heard the ‘big boom’ and from behind he felt an impulse that should’ve at the very least have brought him flying away for hundreds of meters; to start with.

He had a little bit of experience with such occurrences.

Yet, the explosion just then that should’ve sent every single little thing to the shit at the very least for that much and at a very fast speed didn’t even make the waters of the Little Lake to surge, nor to gurgle at the very least. Let alone making the enemy cultivators surrounding Ciemnosc any harm. It even remained… in one place as if that was just a ‘transformation’ and not any explosion of sorts.

“!!!” Ciemnosc looked back, just to check a look, and what he found just by looking back at his Spirit Senses were growing crazy was mind-changing, nature-bending and hell-loosing.

The pure energy, which had gone from strands of pure energy before merging with one another and then becoming a wave-like body of pure energy; had now turned into a true, genuine and authentic gigantic wave of at least 300 meters in length - as it ‘lied’ down and seemingly ‘facing’ Ciemnosc with its topmost section while the 2 sides of its wave-ish body were facing the Little Lake’s waters and the sky.

PSHIIIIIFFFFT~~!!!!

‘...’ The wave of pure energy commenced pouring into the next ship at last, its body immediately engulfing all of the ship and more, probably four times its size as it made the already quite large ship seem small and cute. On the other hand, the even smaller ant that is Ciemnosc, as he ran through the surface of the ship and approached its other end, the wave of pure energy had engulfed half the remaining ship already.

The enemy cultivators that were there just a moment ago… none of them could be known; was known of anymore.

Engulfing living beings after living beings, especially those that were still somewhat alive in the previous ship and were engulfed by its wave-ish body during that transformation, the wave of pure energy quickly caught on with Ciemnosc, already biting on his heels and grabbing strands of his hair like a gentle mother playing with her son’s fabulous hair in both jealousy and tender, warm love.

Playing with it, the wave of pure energy didn’t just become stupidly impossible, but it also seemed to have managed to, in some way, recuperate its agility from before and once more; even higher than before for that matter.

Still holding onto them, playing with his strands of hair that fluttered back, touching and ‘grasping’ the little bit of hair that did come flying backwards while Ciemnosc expressionlessly-somewhat still continued to not just use his full force to run away from but also began exerting his dark Power Energy to his feet, legs and torso as well as part of his shoulders just not completely.

The wave of pure energy closed in, inching closer to Ciemnosc’s back and directly connecting with it time after time during the last 3 meters. Even if in slowed speed motions, the pure energy could be seen ‘lashing’ towards his back time and time again, as if playfully and being coquettish about it, 3 times every moment, dozens of times for each second and it was during the last 3 meters that Ciemnosc ran that he was ‘harassed’ like this.

For the last couple steps, already feeling most of his back being ‘pushed into’ by the pure energy, Ciemnosc felt a bout of pure energy never before so powerful that it made him believe he would feel pain right then and there - but none of that occurred as no pain reached him; only the satiation of his Natal Spirit as all of his body was more than bloated with pure energy now…

Swish- PSHIFT PSHIFT PSHIFT~~!!!

Ciemnosc made the last step, not even bothering to jump as this thing was faster than even his commanding vehicle at full speed by at least 2 times, and that was already when starting, and without the use of any complicated part nor array formation.

His body was already being half-engulfed by the time he took the last step and turned his body around to take a look at it, for the last time if anything, all while his body was now falling with his back facing the warm Little Lake.

“... gasp…” Looking up at the wave of pure energy, the latter becoming as if cuter for it stopped for an instant and seemed to look down at him, with its ‘head’ tilted before suddenly rushing once more and for the last time to catch up with him even when falling onto the water.

The ‘head’ and ‘neck’ of the wave of pure energy went back to try engulfing Ciemnosc’s body, and the latter just could do nothing to prevent it, he could’t fucking fly nor fight against it; it was pure energy.

But looking up, and ignoring the Little Lake below, the sight it all gave him… there was a huge cloud of pure energy, already kilometers-long and still expanding at the side of the Little Lake on one of its many, many and long shores as if exploding into a greater; or ‘transforming’... into a larger whole tsunami of pure energy more and more.

Yet, it did not block any light from the sun. In fact… it seemed to not only enhance such sunlight, but also added its own onto Ciemnosc; onto his darkest all.

He never stopped falling with his back facing the waters of the currently warm Little Lake.
