Chapter 231: Ice Explosion

"Okay, that's enough Angela, if this continues you will be merely wasting energy and the stamina of the beast far surpasses that of your energy storages. You are lucky that it was a beast that didn't have special capabilities and only had simple and direct ways to attack. Otherwise, you would have no chance against it and you have a very big weakness, you are lacking explosive power and if you are facing a being with a durable body and strong defence, you will be unable to harm them much. You can seep your child energy into the bodies of your opponents but this beast had such a strong and large body that it is ineffective against it and in terms of versatility, you are a capable cultivator, but should try to learn a skill with explosive power" advised Lex, who knew that it might upset Angela, especially after all her hard work, but it was something that she needed to hear. 

"I agree and understand. Thanks for giving me the chance to test my capabilities and recognise my weaknesses" 

Angela's mature response was what Lex was hoping for and with her mind, the Jade Empress provided her with a new skill manual. 

'This skill is known as Ice Explosion and is a very difficult to learn, understand and master, but I think you are ready for it. Fire is known for its explosive power because of its capability to combust, caused by great heat. However it is also possible to cause combustion and explosions through extreme cold, but it is much more difficult and required great control and precision. What your friend said is right and if you manage to master Ice Explosion, then you can add it to most of your skills and greatly increase your power, but also your energy control. Heat provides particles with great energy and causes them to move rapidly and cause an explosion, however, the opposite is also true and by inflicting extreme cold to particles you can compress them to the point of explosion. I will pass onto you a manual that you can read over and begin to comprehend, but don't expect to be able to learn this quickly as this usually takes years for people to understand' stated the Jade Empress. 

While Angela was listening to what Lex and The Jade Empress had to say, Angela was sliding over the ice she formed beneath her feet and dodged all the attacks that the beast aimed towards her. 

She had the terrain advantage as she should be able to counter the sea beast's attacks using her ice capabilities, and yet all she could do was block and dodge since her attacks weren't effective against the tough beast. 

"Ugh, this beast is getting annoying now. You have served your purpose and helped me test out Angela's abilities, but I've got to get rid of you now as you took out our friendly whale beast" said Lex as he hovered down towards the beast. 

Lex had a good idea of Ella's current ability after sparring with her and he wanted to test Angela and also gauge her power, which was impressive, but could still be improved. 

With a single first that moved soo quickly that Angela barely saw Lex strike the seas beast, his arm pierced into the head of the giant beast and killed it in a single simple punch.

Lex's physical power was unbelievably high and that was without the use of any techniques, abilities or skills that would enhance his power even further. 

Pulling his arm out of the head of the sea beast, Lex kicked its large body and sent it flying away and splashing into the water dozens of metres away. 

Ella and Angela couldn't help but be in awe of Lex's power and that was without him even trying and once again the mystery behind Lex's abilities rose within their minds.

They both remembered him being weak and defenceless at one point in time, and yet he changed so much and so quickly, which was unbelievable.

"We need to find a new beast now, let's keep moving towards the north for a while until we find another beast, as most of them had been scared off by your battle with the Golden Mortal Sea Beast," said Lex.

He wasn't fazed in the slightest after taking down such a powerful beast with ease and began flying using Kano, while Ella followed closely behind him in the air and Angela slid over the sea.

As soon as they left, beasts from around the area began ripping apart the Golden Mortal Sea Beast and trying to eat as much of it as they could, since its meat was filled with energy and very nutritious for them.

However, Lex wasn't enticed by it and already had plenty of resources and food, so moved on without batting an eyelid.

[The first Golden Mortal Beast I came across, and yet it was so weak and pathetic. I should be able to face a Mortal King without going all out and with my Third Eye and Soul Fusion, even Ascendant Cultivators would have to be awry of me] estimated Lex, who previously wasn't completely sure of his power.

Although Lex may be at the same cultivation level as others, he didn't compare based on cultivation level, knowing his power surpassed everyone at his level apart from Ella, who also had many secrets and capabilities.

After a few minutes, Lex found another beast and this time it was a Golden Mortal, but the power of Lex's Dominant Eye was still enough to subdue and control the beast.

This time the beast was much smaller, but it was still large enough to fit all 3 of them and was much faster than the previous beast they rode.

It had an unusual appearance and also didn't seem to be proficient in fighting, but it would be very difficult to take down such a fast and agile beast, which was how it was able to survive and become a Golden Mortal Sea Beast.

Angela instantly closed her eyes and began studying and trying to understand what the Jade Empress gave her and Lex was happy to see her working so hard, while he relaxed with Ella who sat beside him.
