Chapter 1451 Two choices.

"Huh? Why? What happened? Didn\'t he just break through? Then why does he look so devastated?"

Faustina questioned with a confused look on her face.

Since Nux knew that Aeliana had sealed the area, in order to focus on his breakthrough, he stopped using Essence to hide his presence, so right now, even without Faustina\'s help, Aeliana could see everything and because of this, the moment she saw the change in Nux\'s expression, she knew something had gone wrong and decided to talk to him.

"I will answer your questions later since even I am unsure right now. For now, you will have to excuse me."

Saying those words, Aeliana appeared next to Nux and with a flick of her finger, she disappeared and entered a completely different world together with Nux.

This was one of the worlds she ruled over as a goddess, in here, even someone like Faustina couldn\'t enter without Aeliana getting to know about it.

Faustina, who understood what happened narrowed her eyes,

"I knew the two of them were hiding something, but it seems to be bigger than what I initially expected."

The Human Progenitor started thinking.

As for trying to find a way to sneak into Aeliana\'s world? Even if she could do that, she wouldn\'t. Even if she was curious about many things and wanted to deal with her boredom, she wouldn\'t betray Aeliana\'s trust.

"A monster and a daughter of another monster... what could the two of them be plotting?" Faustina muttered, then, a certain man\'s face appeared in her head and an amused look appeared on her face, "I wonder how he would react if he saw all this. I have never seen that girl get so close to another man, even if that man is her disciple and supposedly a child."

No Progenitor understood the concept of age.

It was invented long after they had stopped bothering with worldly matters.

...

"Aren\'t you seeing this too negatively?"

Aeliana frowned when he heard Nux\'s words. Nux, with his eyes devoid of any emotions, glanced at his Master.

"Isn\'t it a good thing? Isn\'t this what you wanted?

You wanted your Law to be free of your System\'s influence, so the fact that it didn\'t give you something that can be related to your Law is good, no?"

"Master... I have already done everything I could to form my Law. I have explored other\'s Laws, I have mastered Zenith Flow to the point where even my Human Blood\'s adaptation doesn\'t improve it further anymore, I have asked myself countless questions to understand myself better, I have tried to understand different techniques I have, I even explored my Demon Bloodlines, trying to form a Law based on them.

Any law, it doesn\'t even have to be an Absolute or even a strong Law, I tried to form any law I could, whether it was related to my speed, strength, defence, spells, skills, my bloodlines, in these past 1000 years, I have tried forming Law with everything, but I have never once succeeded.

The System is already within me, Master.

It doesn\'t matter if I am using it or not, it doesn\'t matter if I am trying to recreate it, the fact that the System is already within me means that my body is already modified because of it. I cannot separate myself from it, I cannot not depend on it.

My Law...

It has to come from the System.

If it doesn\'t...

Then I wouldn\'t be able to form a Law at all."

Aeliana narrowed her eyes when she heard those words. Nux\'s emotionless gaze... it scared her.

Nux\'s mind was breaking...

He may not have shown any reaction to his wives\' death, however, showing no reaction in itself might be the worst reaction he could have... Aeliana wanted to say something, anything that would help Nux hold his sanity, but Nux wasn\'t done yet.

"What if this was the price?"

Nux muttered.

"Huh?"

Aeliana frowned in confusion.

"A cultivator with no talent whatsoever, a naïve fool who didn\'t know anything about the world, an orphan who didn\'t have anything, was able to become what I am today, someone who shouldn\'t even begin his cultivation journey, walked over the strongest prodigies the world has seen... All of this must come with a price, shouldn\'t it?

What if this was the price?

What if this was the System\'s limit?

What if it modified my body in such a manner that I cannot form a Law and cultivate further at all?

What if... I was never supposed to be the strongest...?"

The more Nux spoke, the more these thoughts started to overwhelm him. His Aura started getting darker and darker, Aeliana, who sensed the change in his aura panicked, "Nux."

She tried calling him out, however, Nux was already too deep in his thoughts, hopelessness, despair, powerlessness, all these emotions started to overwhelm him, and suddenly, BOOOOM

"NUX!!!"

Nux\'s entire body was blasted away by Aeliana\'s punch. His ribs were broken, his spine was fractured, and the impact made all the muscles in his body tremble, a pain Nux had never felt before coursed through his body.

"Khhhawwkkk!!"

He coughed blood as he lied on the ground, barely able to open his eyes, despite his monstrous regeneration acting with all its might, his wounds weren\'t healing. Aeliana\'s attack was too powerful.

"Who said you were supposed to be the strongest?"

Nux, who was already having a hard time forming coherent thoughts heard Aeliana\'s voice.

"Do you even understand what the term means?

Do you even understand what standing above all means?

It means being absolute. It means being able to face anything and still come out on the top. It means fighting all the odds, all the enemies, and being victorious.

How can someone who blames his circumstances reach such a position?

Nux Leander, your goal was never simple to begin with.

The path you walk is full of uncertainty. It is a path filled with thorns, it is filled with difficulties no one can help you solve.

There is no certain way for you to do anything, you need to figure out everything on your own. There is no one to guide you throughout the path.

What if your body was modified so that you cannot continue further?

What if this was your System\'s limit?

What if this was indeed the price for everything you have?

Since when did that matter?

Wasn\'t the end goal to stand above everything anyway?

You said you tried forming any law, regardless of its strength?

If that\'s what you tried, then why even bother forming a Law anyway? Just become a Divine Stage Cultivator like any normal cultivator, go to some backward place, live a decent life as the \'strongest\' of that place, and then die.

Why bother working so hard anyway?"

"..."

Those words reverberated through Nux\'s ears. He wanted to speak but he dared not to. Right now, Aeliana\'s aura was simply too terrifying. Her words were too powerful.

Aeliana looked down a Nux for a while, then, she continued,

"Right now, you have two choices in front of you.

Stop making things difficult for yourself and continue to cultivate like others do. Your foundation is stronger than almost all cultivators in the world, you wouldn\'t be considered weak even if you do not form a Law.

Not to mention with me standing behind you as your Master, not many would dare to offend you. You will be free to live as you wish, do what you wish.

A comfortable life many would envy.

Or...

You choose the difficult path.

The path to the top, your original goal.

It wouldn\'t matter what you choose, Nux. You have already proved yourself to many. It wouldn\'t matter if you stop now. There is no point in beating yourself up like this.

Stand up, be proud of what you are and what you have achieved. Not many stand beside you."

Aeliana spoke with a slight smile on her face. Nux looked into her crimson eyes, slowly, his lost shine started returning, then, "Master..."

He called out.

"What is it?" Aeliana questioned.

"Is your world strong enough to support my breakthrough to the Divine Stage?"

"...it is."

Aeliana answered.

There was a slight trace of disappointment in her eyes, however, she quickly suppressed those feelings.

No, she should be glad.

It was a smarter choice.

There is no point walking on a difficult path where the returns aren\'t even certain. Doesn\'t everyone wish for a comfortable life anyway? All actions one takes are to make their life better in one way or another.

Why would one take a difficult, probably less rewarding path when a simple and rewarding path is right in front of them?

So what if Nux can\'t form his Law, even without a Law, he would still be an above-average Divine Stage Cultivator.

Aeliana nodded continuously, the more she thought about it, the more logical Nux\'s choice seemed.

Yes, she was satisfied by her disciple\'s choice.
