Chapter 140: Gains Part 2
Chapter 140: Gains Part 2
Lex spent more than a month recovering his body.
However, despite being at the same stage, that he was in previously, in terms of cultivation, he had completely surpassed the power level that his body was at while battling against Mason.
Following along with the Elemental Ascension Method, Lex had enhanced his body into what was known as an Elemental Body.
An Elemental Body, according to the Elemental Ascension Method, was a body that had an equal affinity with all the elements of the universe.
As he followed through with the Elemental Ascension Method and his cultivation increased, the rank of his Elemental body would also increase, increasing his elemental affinity and physical power along with it.
However, the Elemental Ascension Method not only enhances the user's external body, but also their energy and internal body.
Lex's body after forming a third eye was on the verge of collapsing and death, which was perfect for him to begin the Elemental Ascension Method that he should have began at the Earth Mortal Rank.
Lex's dantian that was completely void of energy was quite large considering his cultivation level, but compared to what he had read within the Elemental Ascension Method, it was of low quality.
Now with his Elemental Body being at Heaven Mortal Rank, just like his cultivation, Lex had a much smaller dantian compared to previously, but the energy within it was much denser and purer.
Not only was his energy now denser and purer, but it also had the ability to adapt and change into any element.
Lex had no idea how that occurred and remembered that something similar happened within his Eye Energy Reserves when he switched between Eye Powers, but had now gained the ability to switch between elemental energies and therefore had an affinity with all elements.
With the elemental affinity that Lex now had, he could use skills that require the spiritual roots of any element, as his unique Elemental Body allowed him to do so.
Standing up for the first time in nearly a month and a half, Lex body began to crackle as he stretched his tight muscles.

He felt his body bursting with power and was elated with the progress he had made over the past month and a half, that although used up a lot of valuable time, was worth the time.
[System, show me my status] ordered Lex excitedly.

{Ding, the system has designed a new layout for the host's status to suit the host. Does the host like the change, or would prefer the past status layout}
[Hmmm, keep the changed one that is much better] answered Lex, who was inspecting his current abilities and everything he had access to.
[System what is the Third Eye Rank] asked Lex, who apart from feeling something within the centre of his forehead, hadn't noticed any big changes.
Running his palm over his forehead it was smooth and he couldn't feel any physical changes to himself.
The only thing he felt was slightly different as was weird was how he felt it was easier to absorb and manipulate energy and how he felt something weird about himself, but couldn't sense anything specific that he had gained from the third eye.
{Ding, since the host hasn't formed a true third eye, and has merely formed a base for a true third eye, that will continue to grow with the host until it becomes a true third eye, it is ranked. The base rank is the Eart Mortal Rank, which is the start of true cultivation, and the host's third eye hasn't been cultivated or strengthened in the slightest} explained the system.
Nodding his head in understatement, Lex was wondering what else the third eye was capable and how to cultivate it.
{Ding, to cultivate it, it is simple. It merely needs a large abundance of energy that it will draw through the host's Eye Energy Reserve and to increase its power while activated, the host should increase his Eye Knowledge}
It was simple to do in words, but gaining enough energy to fill up the Eye Energy Reserves was extremely difficult and increasing his Eye Knowledge was something he didn't know how to do.
{Ding, the host has no need to rush and the third eye will grow with the host as it continues to syphon energy from the host, just like Ashura does} reassured the system.
Lex couldn't help but feel, despite how well everything worked out, that he was at a loss and the third eye didn't grant him much.
But he still couldn't shake the weird feeling he felt in his eyes, his body and his aura, and he felt as though something had weirdly changed.
Lex decided he would ask the system about what the weird feeling was, just to make sure there weren't any hidden side effects.
It wasn't a painful sensation, but it made him feel as though he was more powerful than he actually was.
[System what is the weird sensation that I am feeling] asked Lex.
{Ding, now that the host has recovered to an optimum state and having formed a third eye, it is likely to be awakening a unique power that is linked to the will that you and the Eye Demon imbued into the third eye} observed the system.
Hearing the system's words, the slight doubt that he was feeling about his decision to agree to the Eye Demon's request was instantly wiped as he excitedly sat down and closed his eyes.
Lex knew how hectic power awakenings and breakthroughs could be from first-hand experience, so prepared himself to embrace the ability and be ready for any backlash or anything that may occur during the process.
But weirdly it was over in seconds and as he sat down and accepted the awakening, his energy was drawn into his eyes and the centre of his forehead as he felt the tingling sensation around his body and sense of superiority he felt with that sensation continued to rise.
Lex felt a sudden entity enter his Eye Power library that he had within his mind, and sensed he had access to another Eye Power.
Excited to try it out, Lex activated the Eye Power instantly.
His eyes became dark red, but instead of emitting a demonic aura like the Eye Demon's, they had an aura of superiority and dominance.
Looking around, Lex felt nothing different while the Eye Power was activated, apart from the weird feeling it caused that made him feel that he was above everybody else.
[System what is this Eye Power, what does it do] asked Lex baffled by the Eye Power that had no effects apart from making him delusional.
{Ding, the will and desire to gain power and be above everybody else, that you and the Eye Demon both had, correlated and fused to make a unique Eye Power} stated the system.
[So, what Eye Power is it, don't tell me all it does is give me confidence in my ability] asked Lex, who felt that the only change to his body and mind was the increase in confidence.
{Ding, the host is incorrect, it doesn't boost the host's confidence, but the host's dominance} corrected the system.
{Ding, the host has gained the Dominant Eye} announced the system.
{Ding, the Dominant Eye is an amalgamation of the will to be powerful and above everybody else that the host and the Eye Demon formed. Third Eyes are unique to Eye Masters, that the host is yet to come across, and are unique to each user and based on the user's will and personality.
Your will and personality, along with the Eye Demon's, formed the Dominant Eye, that grants the host an oppressive, powerful and dominating aura and presence over all leaving beings around the host.
The host doesn't feel its effects as there were no living effects for the dominating effects to be placed on.
The Dominant Eye, unlike the rest of the host's Eye Powers, is at the same rank of strength as the third eye, not the host's cultivation, which is its origin and the centre of the ability} explained the system thoroughly.
[What applications does it have] asked Lex curiously.
{Ding, the system cannot provide the host with this information as the system simply doesn't know. Unlike the rest of the Eye Powers that were granted by the system, this is an ability that is unique to the host and formed by the host. Making the system new to the ability just like the host. The host should explore its uses and experiment with its abilites} answered the system truthfully.
Hearing the system's words, he was slightly disappointed about what he gained from the third eye, but was still excited to test out the ability.
