Eye System

Chapter 225: No More Holding Myself Back Part 2

As Ella said what she said, Lex could feel the centre of his forehead tingle slightly as the rage of the Originator Eye Demon within his Third Eye was too great to be suppressed.

Ella's sharp senses were able to pick up on it and she was shocked and intimidated for the first time ever since she had descended from the plain that she was from.

Although the rage was faint, it was terrifyingly strong and powerful and it was clearly not being caused or emitted by Ella, which made her wonder what kind of Eye Demon, Lex had.

It was clear to her that Lex was an Eye Master and even a blind person would be able to see that, but from what she knew about them, they would have to face their Eye Demon and defeat it to gain the true power of their Eye Power.

Most would be unable to overcome their Eye Demon and would have to come to agreements with it and rely on it to lend them power in exchange for possession of parts of their body and they would also take over the body once the soul or spirit of the Eye Master was defeated.

Ella was sure that Lex's soul, spirit and willpower were all incredible and he should be able to defeat his Eye Demon, but it seemed to be unbelievably powerful and it also seemed as though Lex had come to some sort of agreement with it.

"Don't worry about my business. I am in control of everything and you have no reason to fear anything within me" reassured her Lex after noticing that she had been intimidated and shocked by the small amount of rage that had leaked from his deactivated Third Eye.

Everything she had seen from Lex was amazing and surpassed her expectations, but he just continued improving and gaining more abilities and powers, making her feel as though even she would struggle to keep up in the future.

Lex looked deep into her bright silver eyes and the slight fear that he saw instantly disappeared and transformed into drive and determination.

'I keep holding back my progress and restricting myself, thinking that if I reveal my power in the Lower Plains, they might come after me. But I will do this no longer and although I want to help Lex grow and progress, I want him to see me as a worthy partner and companion' said Ella to herself as she stopped attacking Lex and sat down on the ground.

It was the first time that Lex had ever seen a hint of fear or intimidation in the silver eyes of Ella that were always calm outside of when she became flustered or embarrassed around him.

He was also curious as to what changed in her eyes as he stood beside her and watched as she crossed her legs and seemingly became cultivating.

Suddenly, bursts of power and energy began being released from her body and Lex was shocked and impressed by her powerful aura was and the amount of power she was able to suddenly release.

After absorbing and storing incredible amounts of energy at rates that were even faster than that of Lex, Ella had an unbelievable amount of energy stored within her that she had barely used to improve her body.

She had suppressed her potential, progress and power, not wanting to draw any unwanted attention from superior beings on the Lower Plains, as handling them would be difficult, let alone beings from higher plains.

But she decided that it was time to stop doing so and Lex had never really known what Ella was capable of and all he had ever known was that she was profound and seemed to be powerful.

Massive changes and conflicts were going to occur throughout the Lower Plains with Lex in the centre of it all, and Ella wasn't planning on being a burden because she was afraid to unleash what she was truly capable of.

Just like Lex, she still had a lot of potential that she was yet to tap into, but at that moment, she unleashed most of the energy that she had stored within her body and not used.

Using that energy, her Internal and External Cultivation improved by leaps and bounds within in an instant and as that occurred, her silver hair and eyes became even brighter and her beauty even more astounding. 

Lex who was watching everything was amazed by how quickly the changes in Ella occurred as she got up and flicked her hair at Lex before giving him a confident and sassy look.

"Are you up for round 2?" she said, this time excited to see just how capable she was after releasing most of the shackles that she had placed on her current power.

"I thought you would never ask" agreed Lex, also eager to see how powerful she had become.

"However, now that you are not holding yourself back, I will use as much power as you do. Try not to cause too much destruction to the continent and also try not to be killed by my attacks" said Lex with a confident smile as he began walking backwards and creating distance between himself and Ella.

"I was about to say the same thing to you," she said as she did the same.

They were the same age and both had unbelievable potential, power and capability, especially since they weren't even 16 yet.

Both of them were relaxed, calm and happy and after creating a distance of 100 metres between themselves, they suddenly dashed towards each other.

Lex, just like he said he would, used the same level of speed as Ella, while Ella was only just warming up as she clashed with Lex using her physical body, wanting to test out just how much it had improved since their last spar.

They continued fighting in close combat and they would attack each other hundreds of times within the matter of seconds, while the amount of speed and power they used to attack each other continued to increase.
