Chapter 701 Lt Is As If... Nux Is... Not Alive.

"He really is a Monster huh…"

Erotica spoke with a strange smile on her face.

She then turned towards Riona and Astaria and questioned,

"Are you guys really used to all this?"

"…you think anyone can get used to… this?"

Astaria questioned back.

"Our reactions may be numb now, but trust me, we find it as unbelievable as you do," Riona replied.

The three of them glanced at Nux, who still had his eyes closed and was attracting all the Mana in the air toward him.

"Even this amount of Mana is insufficient for him?" Erotica couldn't believe it.

Soon, Nux's other wives sensed something was happening and they opened their eyes as well.

Nux continued to suck in more and more Mana,

"Can you sense any changes now?"

Riona turned towards Erotica and questioned.

Erotica, however, shook her head,

"As I said, we Sense how the Mana reacts to the person, and currently… the Mana here is a mess… let alone him, I cannot sense any changes in anyone at all."

Riona smiled wryly,

"Alr-"

Just as she was about to reply,

*BOOOM*

The Mana near Nux exploded.

The women's expressions changed, this time, however, they didn't overreact, they have all learned from their previous experience.

They waited for the dust to clear up, and just as they thought, a completely unharmed Nux was sitting cross-legged, with his eyes closed and an expressionless look around his face.

The Mana that has been moving around crazily around Nux was now completely tranquil.

Then finally, Nux opened his eyes.

A strange Aura emanated from his body, for some reason, none of the people present here could sense any Cultivation from him.

A smile appeared on Nux's face as he stood up.

His golden eyes shined as he glanced at his wives and then, he nodded in satisfaction,

"All of you are close to becoming Sages huh, that's great."

Nux's eyes then fell on Riona,

"Oh? Mother-in-law? You became an Emperor as well, Congratulations."

"You think I would fall behind you guys?"

Riona questioned and Nux chuckled.

"Try your best to keep up, then."

"I will accept that challenge."

"Sure Sure, we can't have you moving around with us if you are weak, now can we?" Nux chuckled.

"Look at you, getting all arrogant.

Also, I don't need your permission to follow you around, I am only here for my daughter."

"Yeah Yeah, You love your daughter, we get it~

But I love your daughter more than you, she is mine. So go away." Nux waved his hand, trying to Shoo Riona away.

Riona just snorted and walked towards Amaya.

Seeing the two of them going at each other like that, Amaya just sighed.

"Why can't the two of you get along with each other?"

She questioned.

"Do you really want me to get along with him?"

Riona questioned with a playful smile on her face.

"…on the second thought, just keep fighting."

Amaya quickly went back on her words.

Seeing her reaction, both Nux and Riona smiled at the same time,

"…"

Amaya just stared at the two and didn't say anything.

"Nux, don't you think you are missing something?"

Suddenly, Erotica appeared behind Nux and questioned. She was expected to surprise Nux by hugging him from behind, Nux, however, crotched, dodging her hands, and then stepped away.

"Yes, I see you as well, Erotica.

Congratulations on becoming a Sage."

"Hehe~ Thank you.

I feel amazing.

I am in a good mood, so how about I give you something you will never forget your entire life?"

Erotica proposed.

Nux raised his eyebrow and glanced at Erotica, he knew something really idiotic was coming, and actually, he was better off rejecting this offer, but seeing the expectant look on her face, Nux gave her a chance,

"What is it?"

"A Grand Opportunity to sleep with m-"

"I don't need it."

Before Erotica could even complete, Nux rejected her ruthlessly.

"Tsk."

Erotica just snorted and started thinking about something else.

Completely forgetting something strange that she had noticed a few minutes ago, which she wished to talk about.

However, unlike her, Astaria wasn't irresponsible,

"Nux."

She called out.

"Hmm? What is it, Star?"

"Why can I not sense your Cultivation?"

Astaria questioned and suddenly, the cherry atmosphere disappeared.

"Yes, I don't sense anything either, rather… I cannot sense you either."

Erotica spoke.

"Huh?"

Hearing her words, Amaya frowned, she quickly activated [Sense] just to be sure,

"What do you mean you can't sense him?"

Amaya questioned with a frown on her face, she could clearly see Nux using [Sense].

"Uhhh, I just… the Mana is not reacting to him at all."

"Explain it more clearly, Erotica," Allura spoke.

"How do I explain it? I have never seen it either. Mana reacts to every living thing, Mortals, Cultivators, Humans, Demons, Animals, Beasts, everyone. It reacts to anyone to is breathing, but him…

The Mana is not reacting to Nux at all.

It is as if… Nux is… not alive."

Erotica explained, however, none of the women understood what she was saying.

"Trying sensing the Mana's reaction again."

Suddenly, Nux spoke up.

"It doesn't wor-"

Erotica was about to sigh, however, as soon as her eyes fell on Nux's again,

Her expression changed.

She wasn't alone.

Astaria and Nux's other wives were the same as well.

Nux… had returned to normal…

They could sense his Cultivation again.

"Emperor…"

Astaria spoke up.

"So, everything is fine now, right?"

Nux questioned with a smile on his face.

"Yes, the Mana is now reacting to you again, but… what happened before? Why was Mana treating you like a non-living thing?"

"Hmm? How would I know that? You are the Mana expert here, I didn't even know Mana reacted differently to the living and non-living before I met you."

Nux just shrugged.

Erotica placed her hand on her chin and started thinking.

Astaria, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes.

'Something is not right.'

Suddenly, she heard Amaya's voice.

She glanced at Amaya and saw her nodding at her. She nodded back.

'We will talk about it later, we have to talk about a far more concerning matter right now.'

Astaria lifted her head and glanced above, the Huge Crack in the Sky was… scary. The Sky above the Sky, they all could see it clearly now.

Actually, in truth, the 'Sky' they were living under was nothing but the Barrier.

And now, there were only a few parts of the Barrier left.

Within just a few more days, the Barrier would completely disappear.

'You are right.'

Amaya nodded in agreement.
