Novel Bin Chapter 1429 Breakthrough.
Chapter 1429 Breakthrough.
*Slash* Nux slashed his sword, cutting the last Star Beast, completely eradicating the Star Beast hoard that had attacked him. "Haahh…" He exhaled deeply, sitting on top of the headless beast he had just slaughtered. His sword and clothes were covered in blood, there were some blood drops on his face as well, he however, completely ignored them and stared at the screen in front of him with an expressionless look on his face. 2 years have passed since he had appeared in Waranal and since then, the only thing he did was slaughter these beasts. The act itself was not difficult for him, as he conceals his presence using *Essence*, even Divine Stage Cultivators had a hard time locating him, the beasts obviously stood no chance, he only appeared when he was confident in dealing with the bunch.
Of course, there were still risks involved, the sole reason Nux was here was to train, only targeting weaker beasts would defeat that purpose. He knew he needed to get used to his body, he needed to adapt to his new strength. Yes, even now, he still hadn't gotten used to his body, after all, he had trained his muscle memory for 1000 years, undoing all that in just 4 years was simply not possible. Other than that, Nux also wanted to buy back all his System Abilities, upgrade all those abilities to 12 Star Level, and once this was achieved, he would be able to unlock the second layer of Zenith Flow. Of course, abilities like Absolute Kinesis and Absolute Step still wouldn't be included since they would only be unlocked once he becomes a Great Sage, not that it would change anything. Nux could always add them once they are unlocked. Not to mention that upgrading every ability to 12 Star Level required absurd amounts of System Points and even after hunting for 2 whole years, he still hadn't gathered enough points. Heck, Nux highly doubted if even 25 years he had would be enough to gather that many points, after all, when he previously did it, he had a lot more time, not to mention he had the help of his wives and his other allies. Right now, however, he was alone. "Haahh… it doesn't matter…" Nux exhaled, shaking his head to get rid of these useless thoughts. "I do not need fake allies anyway." He knew that the people inside the illusion were 'real', he didn't feel that when he interacted with his wives because his wives had come a long way and had grown a lot. However, after interacting with Aeliana, all his doubts were clear. The Vampire was as real as it could get. She was an Aeliana who wasn't created out of his memories but from Yrniel's Core. Her actions, the way she communicated, her aura, her authoritative voice, everything was real. It wouldn't be a lie to say that she was an Aeliana from a different timeline. Nux very much understood that the allies he would form here would be very real, at least till he remains here. Honestly, interacting with Aeliana had been a refreshing experience for him, after all, unlike his wives, whom he had to be wary against, so as he didn't give into his feelings and pursue them, he had no such reservations with Aeliana. No, he wasn't planning on pursuing Aeliana, with his possessiveness, he would never pursue a woman he knew he couldn't stay together with for eternity, the barrier of not being able to stay with Aeliana for the rest of his life would always stop him from developing any feelings for Aeliana or any other woman in this illusion. However the same logic cannot be applied on his wives, since, when it comes to them, his rational side disappears, and his emotions take over. Anyways, as he realized that he was getting lost in his thoughts, Nux just shook his head once again, focusing back on the screen in front of him. "I finally have enough points…" He muttered looking at the System Points he had collected in these two years. Yes, he didn't have enough points to upgrade all his System Abilities to 12 Star Level, however, with the points he collected right now, he could still buy all those abilities, even Core, which, because he had no wives, wasn't as important as before, but since it was an ability he had in real life, an ability he heavily relied on, he believed it was better important to include it in his list of abilities, so that it still exists in his Zenith Flow when he returns to the real world. "Let's begin."
Nux stretched his body as he opened his System Shop. Till now, he hadn't bought even a single System ability, he wanted to see just how far he could push his body before without the system abilities, now however, he decided to stop playing around and focus on mastering the Zenith Flow again. "Let's start with Sense." He muttered. With his current level, he didn't exactly need [Sense] since he could spread *Essence* all around the area and it would work out better than [Sense], however, Nux knew that [Sense] had its own usage. Especially considering how easy it was to use the ability. Without thinking about it any further, Nux quickly found his desired ability and bought it. The moment he did, he felt a strange but extremely familiar energy entering his body and blending into his body and suddenly, all the information regarding [Sense] filled his mind, together with the way to use the ability. Activating the ability felt as natural as breathing to him. A thought that made Nux freeze for a moment. The moment he bought the ability, an 'energy' entered his body and blended with it, then, he got the information regarding [Sense] and how to use it. But… Didn't he already know how to use [Sense] anyway? Information related to [Sense], heck, the information provided was only of a 5 Star [Sense], Nux, on the other hand, knew the much-advanced version of it. Then… Didn't this mean that other than that energy that entered his body, everything he got from the System was useless…? And as for the energy… The 'strange and familiar' energy, didn't Nux already know what it was? Heck, he even had control over this energy, then… Vissit novelbin(.)c.𝒐m for updates
"Heh…" A crazed smile appeared on Nux's face. "I am crazy, aren't I?" He questioned himself. He knew what he was trying to do was absurd but…
It was worth a shot. Nux closed his eyes, then, deciding that he would start with the easiest, he thought about [Sound Seal], an ability that was practically useless to him, however, for the sake of experimenting, it was the perfect choice. Recalling the ability's details and how that energy blended into his body when he bought this ability, Nux extended his hand. Then, a ball of energy formed above his hand and suddenly, the energy entered his body, blending in just like how the energy of [Sound Seal] did. Nux then opened his eyes, then he followed all the actions he previously did to activate [Sound Seal] and suddenly, an invisible barrier formed around him. "Heh." Nux's smile widened. It worked. He 'created' his own System ability, and he didn't spend even a single System Point. He didn't need to 'rely' on his system, he could 'create' the abilities he needed on his own now.
With a newfound confidence, Nux continued. Of course, he wasn't planning to end this here. [Sound Seal] was a useless ability. He didn't need it. The same, however, couldn't be said for the rest of his abilities. [Conceal] [Trickster]
[Dark Amethyst]
[Mirror] [Blink Fault] Since his mastery over all these abilities was so high, he knew exactly what he needed in order to 'create' all these techniques, heck, Nux even went a step further and 'edited' the abilities he created. Honestly, when it came to 'editing' the abilities, he didn't have much freedom, the changes he could make were minute. After all, the only reason he was able to create the ability was because he had used them countless times. He mastered all these abilities and had used them to the point he was sick of them. He knew exactly what change even the slightest action did, and only by following through and recreating every 'change' using *Essence*, was he finally able to recreate the complete technique. What he did was similar to reverse engineering, in his case however, his basics of 'ability creation' were too weak, so 'editing' the abilities he created proved to be a difficult task. Of course, that didn't mean that the slightest changes he made were worthless. As someone who was pretty much an expert when it came to making use of these abilities, even the slightest of changes made a big difference. "Haa… Haha… Hahaha…" Creating [Mirror] in front of him, Nux's smile widened even further. In the end, his face distorted to the point never seen before as he then started laughing out loud. He had made a huge breakthrough today. He was now a step closer to his grand goal of not being dependent on the System.
