Experiencing the unstoppable power of the Hell Blaze Flame that his body had used while his soul was fused with that of the Eye Demon, he wanted it to be his own.
He had felt that it was a flame that was part of the Eye Demon's soul and was the only thing that he currently wanted to gain from the Eye Demon, but even he knew that it was a shameless ask and it was very unlikely that the Eye Demon would be willing to exchange it for Ashura.
"You want my Hell Blaze Flame that is the only one of its kind. It is a flame that is part of my soul and is endless. All it requires is energy and flame control in order to wield it, but your soul doesn't harbour enough negative energy and emotions to fuel the flame and your soul and body are too weak to be able to wield it, unless our souls are fused, where I can control it and harbour the burden of using the Hell Blaze Flame. So unfortunately, that is not possible" stated the Eye Demon.
{Ding, The Hell Blaze Flame is a spiritual flame. Spiritual flames are flames that are formed in the body by cultivators with fire spiritual roots and once their power reaches a certain level, they can imbue it with different characteristics using rare methods or treasures in order to do so. They are held within the dantian and become the foundation and centre of the cultivation of a cultivator of the fire element and are very valuable. They can also be found, left behind or passed on by cultivators as it is not the flame itself that holds the power, but it is the Flame Seed that is capable of producing the flame using energy, and one must either acquire a flame seed or form one themselves, which is extremely difficult to do} informed him the system.
{Ding, The Hell Blaze Flame however is integrated with the soul of Originator Eye Demon and the Flame Seed is too powerful for even an ascendant cultivator to handle, let alone the host with his current cultivation level and it is also the only flame in existence with its properties, so it is unlikely that the Originator Eye Demon would be willing to use it in the exchange" stated the system.
It was as Lex expected, and despite everything he was informed about the Hell Blaze Flame, it still didn't stop him from wanting the incredible Hell Blaze Flame that had managed to scare an ascendant cultivator and had the power to burn anything.
[System would it be possible for me to be able to use the Hell Blaze Flame's Flame Seed through the Orginator Eye Demon's soul if he allows me to do so] asked Lex.
{Ding, that would be possible, but the host must train in the fire element or gain the Fire Manipulation Eye before being able to do so, otherwise, it will be very difficult for the host to do so} answered the system.
With the system's answer he knew that it was a possibility and if the Eye Demon vowed to give him complete access to the Hell Blaze Flame, Lex could reserve its power for the future, when he is powerful and skilled enough to use it.
"What I want is for you to grant me complete access to the Hell Blaze Flame's Flame Seed and allow me to use it through your soul whenever I please" stated Lex.
"That entity within you is annoying and is not only restricting me in your body, but is also giving you advise. What a lucky boy you are" stated the Eye Demon with a hateful glare.
"Then it is a deal, I will allow you to use the Hell Blaze Flame's Flame Seed through my soul, however, you must also make sure that your Third Eye's power is at the same level as your cultivation as is always being provided energy when you cultivate" agreed the Eye Demon, who seemed determined to take Ashura into the Third Eye with him and out of Lex's control.
With that, Lex and the Eye Demon formed another pact where Lex relinquished his control over Ashura and allowed it to reside within the Eye Demon's soul and the Third Eye, while also vowing to always cultivate his Third Eye.
In return he gained complete access to the Hell Blaze Flame's Flame Seed, allowing him to use the Hell Blaze Flame as he pleased in the future when he was strong and capable enough to do so.
After their pact was formed, the Eye Demon and Ashura disappeared from before him and returned to the Third Eye, while he suddenly felt something enter his dantian.
Suddenly there was a sudden burst of energy as Angela and the fox beasts that were closest to Lex all rushed away, scared of the sudden burst in energy and evil aura that Lex's body suddenly released.
Within Lex's dantian was a small dark red seed and with it, he was capable of forming the Hell Blaze Flame using the Eye Demon's soul as the catalyst for its activation.
As the Eye Demon had said, Lex didn't have the negativity and evil energy necessary to activate and wield the Hell Blaze Flame, but with the Eye Demon allowing him to use it through his soul, he had been granted the ability to use it.
The Flame Seed within his dantian was an extension of the original that was still within the Eye Demon's soul as Lex woke up with a satisfied smile.
Everything had worked out and he had not only managed to deal with the demonic cultivation master, but he also felt that his strength had increased and he had been granted complete access to the Hell Blaze Flame's power.
"Did you guys miss me?" asked Lex with a smile seeing that the fox beasts, Angela and Ella were all awaiting his awakening.
Seeing that he had finally managed to regain consciousness Angela and Ella let out a sigh of relief as the fox beasts pounded on their master joyously.
