Chapter 177: Golden Mortal Rank
Chapter 177: Golden Mortal Rank
Lex's body required enormous amounts of energy compared to other cultivators, and not only was he cultivating both Internally and Externally, but he was also cultivating his Third Eye and his Elemental Body, which required many times the amount of energy that other cultivators at the same cultivation level as him would need. He also used to cultivate Ashura before sealing him and was going to need to cultivate his Portable Sub-Dimension if he wanted to improve its size and quality.
However, that was what gave him the advantage of others at the same cultivation level as him and was there reason that he could fight against many cultivators at once and cultivators that were at a higher cultivation level than him.
Within a day, Lex's body was bursting with energy as he continuously attempted to break past the wall that blocked him from reaching the Golden Mortal Rank and he was nearing the breakthrough point as he recovered his body during the process.
Meanwhile, his fox beasts were all shocked by what had witnessed their master do and were also scared of the evil and demonic aura that he emanated while the Eye Demon was in control of his body.
After defeating all the giant ant beasts then rushing after the giant ant queen, the fox beasts were not worried for their master in the slightest and began celebrating as they became the strongest and most powerful beast race within the Underground Coves that no longer had to worry about needing to defend themselves or hunt against other beasts in the Underground Coves.
They all knew that none of what they had accomplished would have been possible without Lex and revered him as a god and their master, but also appreciated him as someone that was caring at times and continuously fed and provided for them.
The Unit Leaders acted without orders from Lex, believing that he was expecting that from them and wouldn't be angry with them if they done so, and began passing the Heaven Mortal Rank beast cores to the fox beasts that were at the peak of the Sky Mortal Rank.
They knew that the more Heaven Mortal Rank beasts that their fox army had, the stronger they would become and the more useful they would be to Lex.
The beast meat and beast cores of the high ranked beasts were handed out accordingly, while the rest of the beast meat and beast cores were left for any of them to consume, as there was so much of it.
The cycle began for the fox beasts as a few fox beasts would be on guard duty at different times, just to be careful in case of a sneak attack, while the rest of the fox beasts trained, consumed beast meat and beast cores, then cultivated in their sleep.
It took Lex an entire week before he was able to break through into the Golden Mortal Rank, and surprisingly it didn't cause a large commotion like he had expected as he absorbed all of the energy that was within the giant ant queen beast core and any other beast cores he had saved within his inventory along with most of the energy in the bubble around the mysterious trinket.
Standing up his body was incredibly powerful as he couldn't help but feel as though everything about him had taken a qualitative leap.
He had broken through and in the process made sure to break his Elemental Body, Internal and External Cultivation into the Golden Mortal Rank as his Third Eye was also strengthened and settled at the peak of the Heaven Mortal Rank.
His entire being had been improved as he couldn't help but want to test out his newfound power and strength.
Lex grabbed the mysterious trinket that was the size of a barrel and had imprints and runes all over it, then placed it within his inventory, planning to place it in his Portable Sub-Dimension so that it could be used by his fox beasts and himself when he enters it.
Without climbing out of the tunnel that the giant ant queen had hidden the mysterious trinket in, Lex wanted to try out something that he had seen the Eye Demon do while in control of his body.
It was a skill that had a very simple application and use, but if used it with a lot of energy, it could be very destructive and useful against multiple opponents.
It wasn't a skill that Lex needed to practice in, with his great capability when it came to wielding energy, as he suddenly used a large amount of energy to release a wave of energy in all directions around him.
Energy Burst
Lex released a burst of energy all around him, using attributeless energy instead of the evil energy that the Eye Demon used, and caused an explosion all around him as he decimated the tunnel and all the rock walls around him.
Lex had underestimated his power and destroyed the entire building above him as it began to collapse before him.
"He, this building can't crush me" scoffed Lex as he used the Energy Burst Skill a second time using even more energy.
Energy Burst
The burst ground all the rocks and debris into dust as it was launched flying all over the giant ant beast territory as the fox beasts had to hide in a shelter to avoid being crushed.
Lex brushed off the dust that had fallen on him and jumped up to where he had left the fox beasts with a satisfied smile.
