1022 Have I ever failed before?
'I do not choose.
Everything belongs to me.'
With that thought in his mind, Nux glanced at the fifteen Star Beasts who were walking towards him. A wide smile appeared on his face, and his purple eyes shined as he stood up, the Devouring Mist came out of his body, this time however, the Devouring Mist felt a lot stronger than before.
'Just as I thought.
*Essence* can be used in many different ways.'
Nux thought inwardly, then ignoring the pain he was feeling, he rushed towards the Beasts and fought against them using just the Devouring Mist and *Essence*.
Nux had already scanned the entire place and was avoiding any 10 Star or stronger Beasts. He can fight the 11 Star Beasts if he went all out, but right now, fighting wasn't his main goal.
He wanted to test the limits of *Essence*.
Nux's cultivation speed is much faster than any other cultivator and although it may be a good thing in general, this actually takes a deep toll on his comprehension skills.
Having the option to get stronger just by spending time with his wives, it had made him arrogant. It wasn't a problem back in the Forgotten Continent because cultivators there weren't as strong and didn't have complete knowledge about Cultivation, however, the same couldn't be said for Yrniel.
Beings like Vyriana lived here.
In Yrniel, Nux wasn't the only complete Cultivator. He had lost his uniqueness. It was just the Seven Heroes for now, but Nux had a feeling the Seven Heroes were just the start.
Honestly, in this short while, Nux had met so many strong beings that he was overwhelmed, a seed of doubt was planted in his mind,
Can he defeat them even if he gets to their level?
Defeating the Vampire King and the other world leaders might be possible, since in the end, they are Incomplete Cultivators, but what about Vyriana?
Even if he did become a Divine Stage Cultivator, could he defeat that woman? Honestly, Nux wasn't sure.
And this uncertainty scared him.
He had never felt this before, whether it was the time he met Astaria for the first time, or when it was Eisheth or Orpheus, he was intimidated by their presence, but never once did he doubt if he could defeat those people at the same level or not.
In his mind, at the same level, his victory was always confirmed.
And the fact that he wasn't sure about his victory when it came to Vyriana made Nux realize something.
He needed something that would make him 'unique' again.
And the answer that Nux found was *Essence*
The technique that restructured his entire foundation, the technique that introduced him to an entirely different type of energy. The energy that was much stronger than Mana, the energy that automatically strengthened all his abilities and pushed his capabilities to the level where even cultivators like Vyriana were surprised.
*Essence* wasn't simple, Nux knew that, and now, he was finally trying to understand what *Essence* actually was.
How was it different than Mana? How could it affect all his other abilities? What principle does it work on? Why can others not sense it? Does it exist in the air like Mana?
Nux wanted to know it all.
And the most important thing that Nux wanted to know was...
What more can it do?
If *Essence* can fool even the Divine Stage Cultivators, then...
Can it fool the System?
Like how Nux can hide his presence using *Essence*, making it so that even the Divine Stage Cultivators couldn't sense his presence, can he... hide his Bloodline's presence from his System...?
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm An absurd idea, but why not?
The System wasn't omniscient, it had made mistakes before, failing to know Aisha's real name, and misjudging Elijah's Battle Power, these were some of the examples.
If the System can be wrong... then why could he not fool it?
In theory, all he needed to do was to cover all his Blood with *Essence*, and 'hide' its presence, and once the System sees that his Incubus Blood is not there anymore, the error messages should disappear and everything should be back to normal.
Then, once the System is updated again, Nux can stop hiding his Bloodline's presence and since now the System is updated, it can help him extract the Bloodline properly, just like it did with other bloodlines.
This way, not only would he keep his Human Bloodline and the ability to extract and use other Bloodlines, but he would also not lose out on this ridiculously powerful Bloodline he had just received.
It was a win-win.
Of course, all of this was nothing but a ridiculous theory that Nux had thought of, heck, he doesn't even have the ability to 'cover his Blood' with *Essence* let alone hide it.
'But that is why I am here, aren't I?'
I just need to learn more about *Essence*, once I understand what it actually is and how it works, I am sure my control over it would improve, giving me more flexibility on how I can use it.
I am sure it will work out, after all...'
Suddenly, a confident smile appeared on the Incubus's face,
'Have I ever failed before?'
Nux chuckled, then, after Devouring the last of the fifteen beasts, he stretched his body and rushed towards another group of beasts.
This time, the technique he wanted to use was Blink Fault and *Essence*, yes, this was his major plan, he would use all his abilities together with *Essence*, noting how *Essence* affects each of his technique and trying to figure out its nature from that.
Honestly, it was no different than shooting in the dark, however, Nux had no other choice. It was not like there was a guide he could follow or some other sort of help.
Nux didn't know whether his method would work or not, heck, he didn't even know if what he was thinking was actually possible or not, but one thing was for sure,
When Nux returns to Yrniel after this,
The entire Yrniel would be in for a big shock.
