Chapter 148: Mortal Cleansing (2/2)
Alex then tried really hard to find the next set of words to speak, ”Pearl, Cultivate once more.”
”Meow”
Pearl closed his eyes and started to meditate again. Slowly, a light started coming off of him. It started with white light, then yellow, and finally, it moved to golden light.
Alex fully prepared for the pain to hit him, but even then he wasn't ready at all. ”AHHHH,” his scream was as loud as ever as he found it hard to focus on anything other than the pain.
The scream also shocked Wen Cheng. He wasn't expecting such a horrific scream from his own student. He immediately wanted to stop the cat from cultivating any more but decided to wait.
He used his spiritual sense to look all over Alex's body. He was terrified to see what he was going through. Hearing the explanation of what had happened last time did not do the actual thing any sort of justice.
”Should I stop it?” he started deliberating. He wanted to stop Alex from feeling more pain, but then, he saw something. Throughout Alex's body, tiny black spots were oozing out of his skin.
”No Way!! Mortal cleansing? Without any external assistance?” Wen Cheng was shocked at what he was seeing. ”How is body tempering helping him in Mortal cleansing, when it should only be for normal cultivation?”
Wen Cheng felt like he was seeing a miracle. He no longer gave any thought to stopping the cat and watched as Alex's body kept on pushing out the tiny black bits.
Alex's screams, however, were ever so violent. Wen Cheng has to ignore all noises for a while. Only after a few hours did his scream started dying down.
Finally, Wen Cheng saw that the black bits were no longer oozing out of Alex and decided to stop the cat. ”Meow” the cat woke up from its cultivation with a single command from Wen Cheng. He then turned to look at Alex.
He slowly walked up to Alex's completely black and filthy body to give him a nudge. But as soon as he got close to him and realized what he really smelled like, he ran back.
Wen Cheng looked at Alex who was on the floor, completely unmoving, and said,” He's gone unconscious from all the pain.”
He felt bad for letting his disciple go through this, but he also felt happy that his disciple had done through this. Mortal cleaning was one of the best things a cultivator could hope to experience, and his disciple had just done it.
”He is really going to go very far in his journey as a cultivator,” Wen Cheng started to feel proud. After a few minutes, he told Pearl to go back into Alex, to which the cat complied.
”Yeah, you need a bath,” Wen Cheng thought as he used his Qi to carry Alex and bring him inside his building to cleanse his body of the filth from Mortal cleansing.
