Eye System

Taking single leaps that would launch him hundreds of metres up the mountain, he climbed the mountain in a minute as he activated what seemed to be a Beast Power of the armour type that coated his body in a dark-brown armour and blocked off most of the cold from his body.

Lex had only gained two Beast Powers from all the thousands of beasts he had defeated.

He wasn't pleased with the number of Beast Powers, but the Beast Powers themselves were ones that he was extremely pleased with and were very effective in battle.

Armadillo Armour

A Beast Power he gained from a powerful Armadillo beast that he had found and battled in an underground cove and would form a dark brown and thick organic armour around the user's body.

The beast was in the Sky Mortal Realm and was evenly matched with Lex. It was only after a long arduous battle did Lex manage to beat the beast, and he was only able to do so because of his abundance of beast cores to replenish himself from the inventory that gave him the slight advantage.

Despite its very basic application, with Lex's potential that would rub off on his Beast Powers and grant them the potential for much higher exponential growth, it was a very powerful Beast Power.

Arctic Claws

A Beast Power he gained from a powerful arctic hare, that despite its small and cute appearance, gave Lex one of the hardest battles he had experienced and gave him a weird yet unique ability.

The Beast Power would sprout claws through his knuckles mimicking the razor-sharp claws of the arctic hare that had ripped Lex's body to shreds during their battle and was a very unique weapon that Lex was beginning to grow fond of and was learning how to use it efficiently by applying what he had learnt and experienced from other weapons.

Trudging through the snow, the temperature was enough to instantly freeze and kill any Mortal and Lex was only able to stay conscious and functioning in such a cold climate, because of his strong body, his armour that acted as a shield and his burning vitality-filled energy that was supporting him.

His mind was still and empty unhindered by emotion as his body burned with energy, vitality and power, completely opposing to each other.

The ice leopard was one of the strongest beasts on the continent and was the main reason for the danger warning about the mountainous region and anybody that was brave enough to climb the central and tallest mountain looking for treasures or wanting to hunt the beast would be massacred by the ice leopard.

Lex after tasting such a crushing defeat without him being able to even get close to the beast despite him being a Sky Mortal, which hurt his pride massively, had turnt the defeat into another drive and reason for him to gain strength.

"Ashura"

Feeling his soul pet finally completely healed after the past 6 months of training and cultivation, Lex knew how much of a help Ashura would be in battle, with its cloning ability, transformation ability and the ability to siphon off all energies from a body.

As a Heaven Mortal both Externally and Internally and with his body trained to a level that was optimum for all the weapons his master had trained in, Lex was confident in his ability and with Ashura recovered, the ice leopard was the perfect test for himself and to conclude his 6 months of secluded training.

From the distance in the peak of the mountain, Lex stood on, there was a loud roar of the ice leopard that sensed somebody enter its abode and territory, which had become a rare event after the ice leopard's renowned reputation.

"This time I will be the one to come out on top" declared Lex.

The ice leopard's roar resounded and echoed through the whistling of the strong and bone-chilling winds.

Arctic Claws

Lex felt the bones in his knuckles protrude and sharpen as they pierced through his skin and formed blades. The organic Armadilo Armour he was wearing began to adapt and made gaps for the claws to pierce through.

The figure coated in a thick brown armour that covered his entire body apart from two holes for his blaring black eyes, and had claws sticking out of his hands faced off against the large ice leopard.

The figure wasn't alone had a small black raven that stood on its shoulder with glaring red eyes and despite its size and appearing weak, the raven was a peak Sky Mortal and could rival early Heaven Mortals with its ability.

The ice leopard had white or grey fur with black spots and rosettes. The colouration on the head was white with small black spots, and the back and tail were covered in larger rosette patterns. It had a thick coat, and a short, stocky body well adapted to living in cold environments and also giving it a thick and powerful defence.

It had sharp foot-long claws and dagger-like teeth that had a red sheen, stained by the blood of its victims. The disparity in size was massive with the ice leopard being almost 2 metres tall while on all fours and had a much larger body compared to Lex who stood at 1.85 metres.

Both opponents stared into each other's eyes and the beast that was also a Heaven Mortal and gained superior intelligence to other beasts recognised Lex as the human he had kicked off the mountain in a single blast.

The intelligent ice leopard couldn't help but be shocked by Lex's progress and the ice leopard couldn't shake off the feeling he felt when he looked deep into Lex's eyes.

"You recognise me right" observed Lex.

The ice leopard looking into Lex's eyes for the first time ever, felt threatened and as though it was naked and vulnerable under the vision of the armoured figure.

"Let's begin this battle and not waste any time" stated Lex who stretched and flexed his muscles waiting for the ice leopard to be the first to attack.

Dual Eye

Perceptive Eye

Spacial Eye

Lex's left eye had a target with a red centre that was focused and aimed at the ice leopard with his right eye being completely engulfed in darkness.

Lock-On

Lex's eyes and vision was completely focused on and targetted at the ice leopard and he wouldn't lose his sight on the ice leopard with the Lock-On skill as long as he is within Lex's range.

Instantly the ice leopard with its pride being stepped on became furious.

The beast known as the king of the mountains and one of the top beasts on the continent being disrespected by what was obviously a young human was humiliating.

The ice leopard roared in fury but as it did so, Lex could see it was streaming energy to its mouth as a ball of compressed cold ice-like energy was continuing to increase in size then burst towards Lex forming a powerful ice blast.

The ice blast was formed in instants, but under Lex's Perceptive Eye vision, the process was slowed and visible and now with a much stronger and faster body Lex dashed to the right and evaded the ice blast that would have caused him quite a lot of damage.

Such an attack would not only cause him long-term damage, but would also slow down his body and the circulation of his energy during the battle and was a very useful ability that made him think of Angela who he hadn't seen in 6 months.

But he didn't have the luxury of allowing his thoughts to wonder during battle, as the ice leopard, despite being shocked by Lex's ability, pounced towards him at incredible speeds.

It was a battle between Heaven Mortal's who were tens of times superior in every way to a Mortal.

Lex was a perfect cultivator with his infinite potential, his body being cultivated both Externally and Internally and his ability to gain unlimited Eye Powers through the Eye System.

With his Void Mentality that was currently very strong because of him cultivating using the Mental Void Method for so long. the Eye Demon seemed to have returned to a semi-dormant state and Lex no longer saw him as a threat when it came to keeping control of his body in the current state he was in.

Lex could now last almost 3 minutes within what seemed to be the void when he cultivated the Mental Void Method and each time he would leave he would feel his mind more and more stable as it became emptier and less affected by the world around him.

But Lex knew that the emptiness would wear off over time and he would need to overcome his mind, his emotions and the Eye Demon alone, which he would accomplish just like everything else he wished to do with the Eye System and his willpower.

Scarlet Flash

Lex had managed to integrate the Scarlet Flash Skill into his Arctic Claws and released a claw of energy that flashed towards the ice leopard that was charging towards him.
