Chapter 172: Full Strength
Chapter 172: Full Strength
He needed to use his full strength, but needed to be careful with the amount of energy he was using, as he had to face off against 10 powerful opponents and finish off the giant ant queen.
Dual Eye
Spacial Eye
Perceptive Eye
Keeping his Spacial Eye activated in his left eye, Lex using the Dual Eye Skill activated the Perceptive Eye in his right eye.
He needed the Spacial Eye to use the Penetrative Fist Skill, Body Jolt Skill and Attack Jolt Skill, which would all be needed to be used in battle against the powerful giant ant beasts, while he also needed to Perceptive to increase his perceptivity and reflexes, allowing him to fend off against the multiple opponents at once.
Without waiting for Lex to attack, not knowing what he was capable of, the three giant ant beast guards, that had left the circle as per the giant and queen's orders, charged towards Lex.
Body Jolt
Penetrative Fist
Lex jolted his body above on the of the giant ant beast guards and struck downwards with a Penetrative Fist.
The attack damaged the giant ant beast internally and penetrated through the giant ant beast's armour, however, the damage wasn't severe as Lex hadn't used a lot of energy in the single strike.
The giant ant beast that wasn't effected much by the attack jumped up and rammed its head into Lex's body, launching Lex flying away.
Lex flipped in mid-air as he regained balance and slid backwards across the ground.
[It seems they are faster than I thought and are quite intelligent themselves. I need to be careful] observed Lex, who despite not suffering much damage from the strike, could see how powerful the giant ant beast guards were.
He didn't want or need to use the Armadillo Armour Beast Power as it would use his energy and restrict his movement speed slightly, and he also didn't have the time to use the Land Elemental Energy Transformation, so could only fight the giant ant beasts directly.
Reinforcing his powerful body with more Internal Energy, Lex burst towards the ant beast and swung a powerful kick at its body that knocked the large giant ant beast crashing into a wall.
However, it didn't suffer much damaged and Lex felt just how hard the exterior shell of the giant ant beast was as he kicked it.
Dashing with his full speed, Lex dodged the strike of a giant ant beast, then suddenly jolted himself above another different giant ant beast that wasn't prepared and struck down with a powerful fist that he poured large amounts of energy into.
Punching down with his entire strength and fuelling the strike's power with his internal energy, Lex managed to break into the giant ant beast's shell as the green mushy insides revealed itself.
But before he could fatally wound the giant ant beast, he was suddenly attacked by another giant ant beast which he narrowly dodged, as the fast giant ant beast covered for eachother's blindspots.
Looking around him, while dodging the attacks of the 4 giant ant beasts with his superior speed and Perceptive Eye, Lex was looking for an opening or opportunity to directly attack the giant ant queen, which would massively affect all the giant ant beasts.
She was guarded by 7 peak Heaven Mortal Rank beasts and he wouldn't be able to attack her unless he jolted himself above her.
But what he worried about was if he jolted himself and didn't succeed in killing her in a single strike, he wouldn't be able to dodge the strikes of the 7 giant ant beasts guards around her, or jolt away because of the cool down of the skill.
Another problem with that plan was that he didn't know what the strength was of the giant ant queen and whether the strength of her shell was superior to the giant ant beasts or not.
Despite her being in a weakened state after producing many giant ant beast eggs and providing them all with energy, the giant ant queen was still incredibly powerful and Lex made sure not to underestimate her.
The safest plan was for Lex to pick off that giant ant beasts one by one then to defeat the giant ant queen after that. But the issue with that was that he might not have the strength, energy or stamina to be able to do so and it was also risky.
Lex couldn't find a suitable plan and it was becoming increasingly difficult to avoid the relentless attacks of the powerful and fast peak Heaven Mortal Rank giant ant beasts guards, that continuously attempted to ram into Lex and attack him with their pincers.
[When in doubt, unleash your full power no matter the cost] thought Lex to himself.
Without any other suitable plans, Lex decided to use his true full stop including using his trump cards.
He wasn't being reckless, but genuinely wanted to test out the capability of his full power, while also needed to get him out of the situation he was currently in.
Third Eye
Activating his Third Eye using his full power for the first time, Lex felt his eyes, Third Eye and body fused together and ignited to produce an enormous amount of power.
He could feel all his energy increase in density power and potency as his body began to hungrily absorb the dense energy in the area around them while increasing Lex's entire strength.
Lex instantly felt his power leap and reach incredible heights as the Originator Eye Demon was suddenly awoken by the activation of the Third Eye with an evil smile.
[Already need to lend my strength kid, can't you just fend for yourself] mocked the Eye Demon.
[Shut up, its time for you to pay rent and lend me all your power, techniques and abilities] ordered Lex as he tightened his dominance over the Eye Demon.
Lex felt the Eye Demon's soul, that was residing within his Third Eye, gain some control over his body as they both coexisted within Lex's current body that was overloading with energy and power.
