Essence ofInstant Mastery

By drinking this Essence that tastes of off-brand Whey Protein, you gain the following perks:

• You gain the ability to at any point, instantly master any skill you possess to it's utmost degree. Your mastery is such that it is almost as if you trained for an infinite amount of time; trying everything, keeping what works, and discarding what doesn't work. Your skills are literally perfect, embodying the greatest potential possibly achievable in that skill.

• You can freely make yourself less skilled than that, either permanently or temporarily. Although even if you remove your skills 'permanently' you can just recover those at will later.

• In some universes a sufficiently skilled user may be able to warp reality with sheer skills. In this case, you'll also possess this skill in case you have access to such a world. The same might or might not be true if you possess some kind of skill uncapper.

• This mastery can be updated depending on the world or setting. For example, if you enter a world where a skill you possess is deeper, or if you encounter someone more skilled than you somehow, you would be able to master it again to the new apex.

• When you master a skill you gain perfect practical and theoretical knowledge of it. This knowledge is seemingly generated from nothing, and is NOT inferred or extrapolated, and therefore can't be wrong.

• Your existence flexibly adapts to any skill you have learned, giving you the capabilities as if you actually trained it: Your body become fitter if you master a martial art, your energy use becomes more refined if you master magic, and your mind is upgraded as if you actually trained it, gaining all attributes a master of their craft would usually have.

• You have the ability to retain mutually exclusive gains. For example, you could have both the strength of a strongman and the dexterity of a gymnast (You also have some degree of control over your build), or perfectly use opposite skills without any downsides.

• As someone who has mastered a skill to its utmost degree, you have grasped all the 'principles' behind those skills. This grants you an absolute intuition over similar skills, even if you don't actively 'master' them. For example, if you mastered 'Karate' you would find that understanding, replicating, and breaking down other martial arts used in front of you, being even able to properly guide others on it without ever trying to learn it. This also opens the door for you to properly 'master' it without even needing to learn the basics.

• This works specially well with technology skills. For example, mastery of your planet's technology would allow you to easily reverse-engineer technology of other races via shared scientific principles just by quickly studying it.

• Your skills will never degrade no matter what. You'll be just as good as you were in your peak even if you don't use a particular skill for a thousand years. No one can erase your skills, even with magic or supernatural effects. And you would still be able to use your skill as if you were in your prime even if you had completely lost your mind and degraded into a beast. You are also immune to skill thieves or copiers.

• Your instant mastery makes sure that your skills will never harm you. You could learn eldritch magic without losing your mind, or learn cultivation without ever having a heart demon. Although this doesn't mean you'd be able to use suicide techniques at will.

• You'd be able to use techniques in which dying is a secondary effect caused by another part of the technique (Such as a technique that causes extreme damage to the body for a reason or another), but you'd still die if you used a technique in which dying is a main part of it (For example, a technique which uses your life as a sacrifice.)

• Even without the active aspect of this skill, your learning skills were massively increased. You can easily comprehend, learn, and master the basics of anything in just a few moments (allowing you to easily gain the requirements to 'master' it), and after that your growth would be fifty times faster than normal even without activating this Essence. And this is without the principle overlap aspect of it.

• Your skills work exceedingly well together, almost as if they were made of each other. You can use dozens of magical systems at once, use the technology of several different species, or even stitch several martial arts together to create a perfect one.
