Chapter 262: Stare Down
Chapter 262: Stare Down
Lex's powerful aura that was boosted and made even more tyrannic by the Dominant Eye clashed with that of the Master of the Blood Sword Group as they stood opposite each other.
Despite the disparity in size and cultivation level, their aura's seemed to be relatively even as they caused large shock waves to be sent all around them. Despite aura's being invisible, theirs were so powerful that they were almost able to see a red and evil aura emanating from the giant man, along with a powerful and domineering aura from Lex.
"Kid, you really are brave. Here I will show you that even if you are an Eye Master, it is useless. You are one hundred years too young to challenge me, especially so openly, without backup and within my own territory,"
They both stood there in silence for a few seconds, sizing each other up, before the giant man was the first to move.
He had noticed the changes in Lex's eyes and had heard that Eye Masters could have all sorts of unusual eye colours, but he hadn't heard about Eye Master's having two colours that were both different.
It made him want to capture and control Lex even more, as such a rare individual that had a lot of potential for the future, while was also very capable, would be very useful.
Little did he know, Lex still had a much larger arsenal of Eye Powers and was only using the Spacial Eye and Perceptive Eye at that moment, but had many more abilities that he could wield whenever he pleased.
Making the first move, the giant man, not using his full power, but power that only a Mortal King could pull off, struck downwards, wanting to crush Lex with a single attack.
What he didn't expect was for Lex to be able to easily dodge the attack and seemed to have been able to see it coming despite the speed and power of the attack.
Lex couldn't help but be shocked by how fast the attack was considering how large and muscular his opponent was, however with his Perceptive Eye, and his own speed, it was something that he could keep up with.
Additionally, Lex had also been able to spot a big flaw and weakness that the Master of the Blood Sword Group had.
With such a muscular and large physique, along with the fact that he was shirtless, Lex would be able to predict and see any attack coming his way an instant before the attack even began.
His Perceptive Eye and natural observant nature made it so that any small contractions or twitches in the giant man's muscles would be noticed by him. Then with his combat experience and knowledge about attacks and the human body, he could derive what kind of attack was coming his way.
From observing his opponent's body, he could also estimate just how powerful he was and the man's muscles were brimming with power and evil energy to the point that they appeared as though they were about to burst.
It was clear that he was yet to use his full power, but his downwards strike that missed Lex would have been enough to crush almost any Golden Mortal Cultivator. The attack left a large crater in the ground along with causing the ground in the area to shake.
"Not bad, but you're too slow," mocked Lex before suddenly launching a powerful fist strike.
He used all the force and power his body could generate without the use of Internal Energy, and wanted to test out how durable the giant man's body was.
The fist was powerful enough to shatter giant boulders, and yet it didn't seem to faze the man before him in the slightest and he was unable to even push him back in the slightest.
Lex felt as though he had struck a block of steel, and even if he had struck a block of steel, he was confident he would be able to leave a large dent in it. Such a hard body was unbelievable, but from his aura and his reputation, it was clear to Lex that the man before him cultivated some sort of Evil Cultivation Method.
The giant man was impressed by Lex's physical power and could tell he hadn't used any Internal Energy through the attack, which was amazing as even Mortal Kings would struggle to generate such power even with Internal Energy.
Watching from the sidelines, it seemed to the onlookers that Lex was weak and had no chance of damaging their master, but the Master of the Blood Sword Group knew just how incredible Lex was.
He was intrigued to see what kind of cultivation method he used to train his body into becoming so powerful, since even he wouldn't be able to unleash such physical strength at his cultivation level, but the gap between them was still too big.
What made it amazing was that Lex seemed to be young and if they were the same age, the Master of the Blood Sword Group knew that he would have no chance against him, but that wasn't the case.
"Not bad, but you're too weak," mocked the giant man, reciprocating Lex's words back to him.
Hearing that, Lex smiled and had confirmed that trying to defeat him in terms of raw physical power and wound his body externally would be very difficult and almost impossible.
However, he was by no means giving up or feeling unable to take him on, and in fact, he felt the opposite way. Facing such powerful opponents and someone with a body and fighting style that he had never seen before excited him and was a good opportunity for him to learn and develop.
While they both seemed to mutually recognise the other as an opponent and were yet to truly begin their battle and were in a stare down.
"Shall we begin properly, little Eye Master,"
Hearing that, Lex smiled and they suddenly both disappeared from where they stood.
