Chapter 1115 Zenith Flow.
1115 Zenith Flow.
BOOOM
"Aggghhh! AAuuucckkkkkhhH!!
Fuck!"
Nux cursed as his body was blown away, nearly half of his body had burst apart and he coughed out blood.
"Haaah... Haah... Haah...
Why does... this skill not... lessen the pain..."
He spoke as he gasped for air.
One of his lungs was blown away by this attack so he was having difficulty breathing, the extreme pain automatically pushed his mind from Zenith State, not that being in it would matter. Zenith state allowed his body to move without thinking, but that didn't mean it could do the impossible.
Even the Zenith state couldn't help Nux get back up when his arm, leg, and half of his waist were blown away.
"That was just the reminder that you shouldn't get too arrogant even if you have successfully created your new Skill."
Vyriana, the woman whose punch was the reason why Nux was in this disastrous state, walked towards him and spoke with an emotionless look on her face.
And yes, after 178 long years, Nux had finally completed his new technique.
His training... was finally over.
Nux, however, wasn't exactly happy.
"I... wasn't getting... arrogant at... all..."
Nux complained.
"You wouldn't know, one is often a bad judge for oneself," Vyriana replied.
"Are you sure... that you... aren't doing this... because you... are sad that... my training is over and... you won't get to... see me...? If that is the case... then... don't worry... I will... neve-"
"Are you perhaps someone who enjoys pain? Because your words seem like a request to hurt you even more." Before Nux could even complete his sentence, Vyriana spoke up.
"Heh..."
Nux chuckled.
His smile was bloody, even his chin was covered with blood he had coughed out loud, honestly, he looked quite intimidating as he laughed, Vyriana, however, couldn't move her eyes away from him.
"You got braver in these past few decades, I will give you that."
"Or maybe it is because you... have attacked me so many times... that I do not fear you anymore..."
Nux replied, his lung had already regenerated so he could talk more comfortably than before.
"Oh?"
Hearing those words, Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
Then, a small smile appeared on her face, and,
"So you do not fear me anymore, huh?"
"Lady Vyriana isn't so petty as to go after me for mere words, is she?" Nux reply.
"..."
In the end, Vyriana just turned silent.
This man was too shameless to bother with.
"Ahh... fuck, what did you use? My body is still too much time to heal... even after my Vampire's Regeneration and [Regeneration] are working together."
"I did use a bit of my Mana this time..."
Vyriana replied, this time, her voice sounding a bit uncertain.
She couldn't believe she was forced to use Mana in a fight against a Semi Saint... Yes, all this while, Vyriana had never used Mana against Nux, she never needed to, this time however, she had no other option...
Nux forced her to react that way.
An achievement others would brag about for the rest of their life, Nux, however, couldn't help but chuckle dryly.
"Even with the Third Layer of Zenith Flow, I failed to land a blow..."
"Your goals are too high," Vyriana spoke directly. Even Complete Divine Stage Cultivators find it hard to land a blow on her, let alone Nux.
The Battle Skill Nux had created was strong.
Vyriana knew it the best because she was the one who helped him create it.
In the end, the name they came up with for the Battle Skill was Zenith Flow.
For simplicity, they divided Zenith Flow into three layers, with the output and complexity increasing with each layer.
The First Layer was the simplest. It was meant to be used in a situation where Nux wanted to hide his secrets. The First Layer only allowed Nux to use the Five Sword Skills Vyriana had given her and his Magic Spells.
The Second Layer made it more complex by adding Nux's System Abilities. Even Core, Blink Fault, Dark Amethyst, Absolute Step, and Absolute Kinesis were added into Zenith Flow. Of course, Vyriana was still in the dark about System's presence, for her, it was just 'more complex Skills or Magic Spells'. Honestly, Vyriana realized it quite early that wasn't the case, she just acted ignorant.
Anyway, that was something to be discussed another day, for now, talking about the Third Layer was much more important.
The Third Layer was the end result of Nux and Vyriana's hard work for the past 75 years. A combination of everything Nux had. The Layer that Nux taps in when he faces an opponent he couldn't defeat normally. A situation where he had nothing to hide.
This Layer allowed Nux to tap into his Bloodline Abilities.
And no, it was not just mere turning into other races and fighting. This Layer allowed Nux to perfectly merge the powers of all the Bloodlines he had. Honestly, it just started as a random thought 50 years ago, but as the two worked on it just out of sheer curiosity and slight boredom, Something incredibly absurd was created.
The Catkin Bloodline's Ability to turn invisible, Shadow Demon Bloodline's Ability to access the Shadow Realm, Incubus's absurd amount of Essence, and Myriads of Vampire Abilities, with Essence, although difficult, Nux could use all these abilities at the same time.
The Third Layer, however, took this to another level.
It allowed Nux to use all these abilities together, without thinking.
Just to explain how complex the Third Layer was, let's use the number of situations as a factor.
The First two layers combined had 150,000 different situations that Nux's body had stored as muscle memories.
And the Third Layer alone had... 300,000 situations.
That was how complex the Bloodlines' abilities were.
The Third Layer was a completely different Battle Style altogether. Actually, Nux had created the First and Second Layers for each of his transformations as well, the process wasn't complicated, he just needed to add his Bloodline abilities to what he already had.
The two of them thought that mixing these abilities would be the same as well, they never knew that they would require a completely new Layer for it.
An Ultimate Layer where Nux could even fight against a Divine Stage Cultivator.
Of course, whether he won or not was still a different matter.
No matter how strong the technique he cultivated was, crossing the difference between Realms was not possible, this was especially true for the Third and Fourth Phase which was much wider than the difference between the Second and Third Phase.
A Third-phase cultivator cannot defeat a Fourth-phase cultivator.
Especially if the Fourth Phase Cultivator was someone like Vyriana
