Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven

Chapter 658: Prime World And White Devil Settlement

Information surged into his mind, and Grey realized what exactly this was.

First, he could tell that this form of inner world creation was specific, it was used back when the present Heavenly Dao didn’t have control over the world.

But the Prime World Creation he got after the Inner World Creation was fundamentally different.

”What a coincidence,” Grey muttered with a slight grin.

This Prime World Creation was not actually a common inner world creation technique.

Instead, it belonged to a different evolutionary path entirely, a Primordial Evolutionary Path known as the Prime Evolutionary Path.

Grey had barely any understanding of this path, but he knew it dealt with pure offensive power. The Prime World was directly related to that concept.

”To think I would find a Primordial Evolutionary Path in here,” he said with visible surprise.

Primordial Evolutionary Paths were those you wouldn’t find easily, they sat at the very top of their food chain. Now he had encountered one hidden within the Chaos Archive.

”It seems like they have something related to frequency too,” Grey observed thoughtfully.

There were people who were naturally as genius as him and the creator of the Chaos Evolutionary Path. The creator of the Prime Evolutionary Path was clearly one of them.

This path precisely used frequency for world creation, and this world was not just any ordinary world. Its amplification capabilities were immense and absolutely insane.

”But wait,” Grey’s expression shifted slightly. ”If I use Prime World, the Heavenly Dao will definitely notice.”

This was a power the Heavenly Dao didn’t want anyone to have.

And now he had acquired a template for not just any inner world creation, but an entirely reforged version.

”But what can it do?” Grey grinned confidently. ”At best, send heavenly tribulation.”

He would continue with his plan, he would make use of the Prime Evolutionary Path’s Prime World.

The Prime World was simple yet effective.

This inner world could be used directly in battle. Normal inner worlds just existed for people to use your power, but in the Prime World, every single being within it would increase your power level.

It was called Prime Continuum.

It used world force and acted as an amplifier.

World force existed even in normal inner worlds, and in theory, even with a normal inner world, one could channel world force to amplify strength.

But followers of the Prime Evolutionary Path had Prime Energy, and the worlds they formed would have it as well. Their method would naturally be more powerful than anything else.

”It could be that the Chaos Emperor also used this method for the 10th Rank?” Grey wondered.

That would make sense then.

But to create a Prime World, there were conditions. While you could make one through normal means, this method used external power to amplify the Prime World to a whole new level.

As expected of a Primordial Evolutionary Path.

But then again, he didn’t have Prime Energy.

There was naturally a way to solve that problem though.

He wasn’t going to copy and paste the Prime World, he was going to make a Nexus World Creation instead.

”Thank you, creator of Prime,” Grey grinned. ”You’ve opened up my eyes.”

For now, he would start with understanding the structure of the Prime World. With this knowledge, his goal of reaching the 10th Rank wouldn’t be far at all.

Now he just needed to figure out how exactly he would help his pathstriders create their own unique power.

Of course, for 9th rankers who ascended through resonance with a Dao, it would be easy. They could take that Dao and form a unique power to create their Nexus World.

But that couldn’t be said for people who ascended with the Summit of Nexus.

That was where he felt most of the struggle.

If only there was a way to create it without needing your own power, but that would go against the entire concept of transcendence. Transcendence was the whole point, and without your own unique power, how could you possibly achieve it?

It was really annoying to think about.

Grey sighed and pushed the thought aside for now, he would figure it out eventually.

Just then, he sensed someone calling him from outside.

It was Eterna.

His consciousness shifted, and he returned from the Chaos Archive back to reality.

Grey opened his eyes slowly, finding himself still seated inside the airplane.

”We are here,” Eterna said beside him.

Grey nodded and stretched his arms casually.

He turned to Seraphina who was already standing near the exit.

”Come, dear guests,” she said with a graceful smile. ”I will take you to meet my father, the King of the White Devils.”

They exited the airplane together and stepped onto solid ground.

Grey looked around, and his eyebrows rose in genuine surprise.

The place looked like a sci-fi world straight out of his memories of Earth’s movies.

Cars hovered through the air on invisible tracks, their sleek designs gleaming under the crimson sky. Buildings rose with metallic surfaces that reflected the dim red light, their architecture both elegant and functional.

Floating platforms drifted between structures, carrying devils from one location to another. Some areas had gravity-defying zones where objects floated freely in mid-air, rotating slowly without any visible support.

The space-time here was extremely stabilized, Grey could sense it immediately with his perception. You wouldn’t be able to break a single thing here through normal means, the entire settlement was reinforced on a fundamental level.

”Not bad,” Grey said with appreciation. ”This is way more advanced than I expected from Hell.”

Seraphina smiled proudly at his words.

”Our civilization has developed for countless eons,” she explained as they walked. ”We may be devils, but we are not savages living in caves. We were once angels and we are proud of that fact.”

Grey was taken aback hearing this.

They were proud that they were angels?

Interesting.

He didn’t feel the savagery that other devils naturally had in them. Was it because they had already decided to side with the gods once more?

Eterna observed the surroundings with keen interest, her eyes processing the technological marvels around them.

She understood that this was the place where she sensed the technological development from when they first arrived in this world.

”The integration of technology and supernatural power here is impressive,” she commented. ”They’ve achieved a balance that most civilizations struggle with for millennia.”

Seraphina led them through the bustling streets of the settlement.

White devils moved around them, going about their daily lives. Some carried goods, others chatted in small groups, children ran between buildings playing games.

It felt surprisingly normal despite the location.

Grey noticed that many of the white devils were staring at him and Eterna with curiosity. Some whispered to each other, pointing at the two humans walking alongside their princess.

”Humans are rare here, aren’t they?” Grey asked.

Seraphina nodded without turning around.

”Extremely rare,” she confirmed. ”Most humans who end up in the Ancient Hell don’t survive long enough to reach any settlement. The environment alone is hostile to those without hell physiology.”

”Yet here we are,” Grey said with a grin.

He had no idea what a Hell Physiology was but he didn’t seem affected by Hell in any way.

”Yet here you are,” Seraphina agreed with a slight laugh. ”Which is precisely why my father will want to meet you both.”

”To survive without a hell physiology. You both are certainly interesting.”

They continued walking through the city, passing through several districts.

Grey observed everything carefully, noting the defensive formations embedded in the architecture. The white devils had clearly been at war for a long time, their entire city was designed with protection in mind.

After about twenty minutes of walking, they arrived at the base of a massive palace.

The structure towered above everything else in the settlement, its white walls gleaming brilliantly against the red sky. Golden accents decorated the edges, and intricate carvings covered every visible surface.

Guards stood at attention along the pathway leading to the main entrance.

All of them were at the 12th Rank at minimum.

Grey whistled softly at the sight.

”Your father doesn’t mess around with security,” he commented.

Seraphina smiled faintly.

”He has many enemies,” she said simply. ”Caution is necessary for survival.”

They began walking up the long staircase toward the palace entrance.

The guards watched them approach with sharp eyes, their hands resting on their weapons. None of them moved to stop the group, clearly recognizing Seraphina.

But as they reached the top of the stairs, a figure suddenly appeared before them.

It was a tall white devil with a stern face and cold silver eyes. His white hair was tied back in a tight knot, and he wore ornate armor that marked him as someone of high rank.

He raised his hand sharply.

”Halt!”
