Chapter 1441 Anomaly.
"Nux, I know being a Vampire may sound powerful, I know as you crave more strength and improvement, turning into a Vampire seems like an attractive option, however, it is more complicated than you think. Vampires are all-round beings, they have myriads of abilities but because of this, they have a difficult time mastering their abilities and often lose out compared to other races who focus solely on one skill. If Vampires were as strong as you are thinking, they would have started ruling over other races." "I have made my mind, Master." Nux, however, wasn\'t willing to step down. He already had a goal in his mind. Seeing the conviction in his eyes, Aeliana had no choice but to give in. After all, this was the boy\'s reward after consecutively winning for the past 10 years. "Alright." Aeliana sighed, then, without even asking, she grabbed Nux and took him to the Vampire Trial Tower. Nux smiled, he glanced at Aeliana before he bowed his head and left. In Vampire Trials, the Trial Taker is supposed to fight a ridiculously strong being that is a few cultivation stages higher than him, how one performs against the beast is then evaluated by the tower and the trial taker is rewarded according to it. The Beast was never once defeated and Nux, who now stood in front of the Beast understood why. Right now, he was standing in front of a huge Golem who radiated the power of a Peak Saint… no, the power was almost rivalling a Pseudo Divine. And he was currently a Sage Stage Cultivation. That is a jump of three cultivation stages when he only considered the beast to be Peak Saint. No normal cultivator could defeat the beast, heck, even he, as monstrous as he is, would only stand a minor chance if he went all out, abusing all his powers and abilities to the extreme, Not that he was planning to do it. He had no intentions of waking up that monstrous freak right now. He simply needed to last till he got Primordial Blood. Why Primordial?
Although it is true he only had King Level Vampire Blood in his real life, he intends to change that when he returns to the real world. He would upgrade all his Bloodlines to Primordial Level. Why not practice when he had the time and opportunity? Thinking about that, Nux rushed towards the Beast. He had done his research, he simply needed to last 4 hours and honestly, dodging and evading his enemy attacks was what he was strongest in. Even if the golem in front of him was ridiculously strong, having to deal with an annoying bug like Nux wasn\'t easy. 4 hours passed by in an instant, Nux, who then decided to return let the golem attack him once, his entire body was crushed and turned into \'paste\', blood splattering all over the place as he opened his eyes outside the Tower after feeling the strange sensation of being crushed. Was it painful? Well… it sure was. But not as much as Nux thought. No, he wasn\'t crazy. It was just that since the golem first attacked his head, the first thing to be crushed was his head and brain, there was nothing to sense the pain he felt and he died before he could understand most of what happened. Nux then shook his head, shifting his focus to what was more important. Just as he expected, his System absorbed the Blood he got from the Trial, separating it from his already existing Human Blood and enabling his \'Vampire Form\'. And since technically, his Human Blood was as strong as Vampire Blood, there was no problem in using Vampire Form for as long as he wanted. \'This is definitely stronger…\' Nux spoke as he sensed his new powers. Despite only being a Sage, he could already feel just how strong his Vampire Form was compared to his Human Form. Nux, however, wasn\'t given much time to think about the changes in his body as he sensed another presence near him. \'It is time to start the act…\' he thought inwardly as he returned to his human form, then, a \'confused\' expression appeared on his face. "How was the Tria-" Aeliana, who appeared in front of him frowned as she noticed something odd. Nux just came out of the Vampire Trial but… He was still a Human. This shouldn\'t be possible…
"What ha-" "Master… is this supposed to be like this…?" Before Aeliana could ask anything, Nux turned towards her and questioned with a confused look on his face.
"What do you mean? What happened in the Trial?" Aeliana questioned, her frown deepening. "I don\'t know… I believe the Trial went well…
I lasted against that beast for a little more than 4 hours but…" "But?" "I, for some reason, retained my Human Blood?" "Did you not get the Vampire Blood?" Aeliana questioned, Nux however, shook his head as he quickly activated his Vampire Form. "I did…" He muttered. "I now have both Human and Vampire Blood in my body…" Aeliana widened her eyes in disbelief. At the same time, countless questions popped up in her mind. A being with both Human and Vampire Blood!? Was something like this even possible!? Aeliana could sense it, Nux was no hybrid, both his Human and Vampire Blood were complete. This was also the reason why she found this situation to be so ridiculous. She, in her long life, had never seen something like this before. Why was something never normal when it came to her disciple!? Aeliana couldn\'t believe it. The first disciple she took in… And he turned out to be like that. The more she thought about it, the stranger she felt. It didn\'t take her long to realize something else. \'Why is no one around me normal?
Am I the problem…?\' The Vampire was now doubting herself. In the end, she just took a deep breath and calmed herself down. \'This will attract unnecessary attention…\' Aeliana concluded as she started thinking about the consequences. This wasn\'t something she could hide, a Primordial Level Bloodline is bound to make a commotion. Not to mention the Progenitors were already interested in Nux. This would only lift their interest even further. "Master…?" Nux called out with a strange look on his face. "Is something wrong with me…?" He questioned. "Do you feel something wrong in you?" Aeliana questioned back. Nux shook his head so Aeliana shrugged as well. "The cultivation world is full of such strange incidents, this world is mysterious, there are countless things you cannot explain through logic. Since there doesn\'t seem to be any problems, then treat it as a gift and use the abilities of both Humans and Vampires." "Then Master…" Nux tried to put another idea into Aeliana\'s head, something that would help him greatly, the Vampire, however, shook her head. "Do not push it, child. The world is full of uncertainty, being greedy is good, but too much greed can be harmful. Your body is somehow maintaining a perfect balance between Human and Vampire Blood, the reason behind this could be Human Blood\'s adaptiveness. Adding another Bloodline into the mix might destroy the balance created and it might lead to terrible consequences. So forget what you are thinking." "…" Nux couldn\'t say anything. In the end, the only way to push forward was through getting more rewards. Time passed, Nux continued his training and participating in tournaments, this time, he didn\'t visit Waranal as often as before, 10 years here were 250 years in Waranal, abilities he got from the Vampire Blood were something he had trained before, 250 years weren\'t required for it. So unless his Bloodlines were complete, spending so much time where would only waste his time. Instead, he started visiting Veiled Eden. 2 weeks there was a year outside, so in just 20 weeks, 10 years passed by, Nux, obviously won all the \'tournaments\', honestly, with how one-sided the battles were, the tournament\'s hype had long died. The only reason it was even continued was because the reward was just too tempting. Anyways, 10 years later, when Nux and Aeliana sat in front of each other again, "Are you really not going to give up…?" The Vampire questioned with a solemn look on her face. "Master, I understand my body well. I know what it is capable of and I am willing to take the chance." Nux spoke with a determined look on his face. A look that Aeliana could only sigh in front of. "What Trial would it be this time?" "Dragon Trial." "Alright…"
