Chapter 188: Devouring Wave
Chapter 188: Devouring Wave
He had lost all the humanity that he may have once had and through the demonic cultivation methods that he was cultivating from the Blood Moon Demonic Sect, that used blood as a catalyst for their methods, he was able to display power that one would expect from a berserk beast.
The attack slashed Lex's arms, and although his opponent's speed and power surpassed his own, he was still calm as his arms instantly began to heal using the Life Energy around him through his Elemental Body.
'This child is too incredible to be allowed to live and if he does live, he will become a massive problem and threat to our demonic sect in the future' thought the demonic cultivation master who was seeing Lex's power and numerous incredible abilties.
Cutting open his own palm, out of it, the demonic cultivation master withdrew a dark red sword that seemed to be stored within his arm and from it was a powerful evil aura that sent a chill down the spines of all the cultivators on the continent.
"I never expected I would have to use the blade that was bestowed upon me by the Sect Master, but you cannot be allowed to live" stated the demonic cultivation master, whose power suddenly rose massively.
"I will give you the honour of dying to this legendary blade. The Blood Serpent Blade, an Ascendant Weapon that drinks the blood of its victims to increase the power of the user and the blade" stated the demonic cultivation master.
[They are just like those blades that the swordsman from my past reality used in the Mortal Beast Dimension, and it seems quite similar to Ashura] thought Lex to himself.
"You would dare to be so arrogant with your puny weapon, I will show you a true evil blade" mocked Lex as the Eye Demon's personality along with Lex's negative intentions towards the demonic cultivation master made their fused soul mock the demonic cultivation master.
"Ashura" bellowed Lex as the seal that Lex had placed on Ashura was released by the fused soul.
Lex's intentions and will while fusing with the Eye Demon's soul weren't against unsealing Ashura and Lex's will in the fused soul allowed for it to happen, knowing that he would need as much strength as he could acquire in the current situation he was in.
Unsealing Ashura that was linked to both of their souls, a small black raven suddenly appeared out of thin air as it was materialised from Lex's body.
Holding the raven, it morphed to Lex's will, using the ability of the Eye Demon, as he formed a sword out of Ashura that was identical to that of the demonic cultivation master in terms of shape and size.
"This is a true evil blade" declared Lex as the blade in the demonic cultivation master's hand shook slightly from Ashura's presence.
In terms of power it was weak and had been sealed for such a long time, so hadn't been strengthened with Lex's body and cultivation, however, its aura and presence were frightening and it seemed to have an all-consuming and deathly aura around it.
"Devouring Wave" shouted Lex as he released a burst out of his body using Ashura's blade as the centre.
With the Eye Demon's knowledge and capability, Lex was experiencing his body do things that he didn't understand or know how to do, but still seemed to be familiar and easy for him to do because his soul was fused with that of the Eye Demon.
The wave that Lex's body released, using Ashura's unique abilities and characteristics as a catalyst, spread around the area that was within 50 miles of where he was floating in the air.
Any energy, blood essence, vitality or anything else, that could be absorbed into Lex's body and used as a catalyst for his power, was drawn in by the Devouring Wave that would consume it all and relay it to Lex's body and Ashura.
The demonic cultivation master was amazed by Lex's display of power and ability and felt that the evil aura around him might even surpass his own.
However, the gap in strength and experience was unquestionable as he slashed outwards releasing dozens of blades of evil energy through his blade, which Lex narrowly dodged, using Kano to do so.
If any of the other cultivators were watching Lex and the demonic cultivation master in the air, their eyes wouldn't be able to track what was occurring as their speed and power had reached an unbelievable level.
As the large stream of energy entered Lex's body and Ashura, which would have been overwhelmed Lex if he had to deal with it alone, easily subdued and digested with his soul being fused with that of the Eye Demon, as his blade gave him a massive leap in strength.
Both Lex and the Blood Moon Sect Elder flew towards each other and clashed blades, as both of them with their skilled swordsmanship exchanged sword attacks and techniques.
Their speed was incredible and although the demonic cultivation master still had higher speed and power than Lex, Lex had faster reflexes and senses and had higher perceptivity through his eyes as they continued to exchange rapid attacks that could instantly and easily cut a Heaven Mortal Cultivator in half.
"You are quite good, but you are still too weak to defeat me" roared the demonic cultivation master as he poured more power into his sacrificial skill that was allowing him to increase his power despite his cultivation being only at the Mortal King Rank.
"He, we will see who will be defeated" scoffed Lex as he also streamed more energy into his Third Eye from his body that was overflowing with energy from the Devouring Wave that he released through Ashura.
With the thousands of dead cultivators and the abundant energies in the area around him, Lex had managed to draw in an unbelievable amount of energy as he continued to clash swords with the demonic cultivation master.
