Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven

Within the secret realm, Grey sat near the edge of the world barrier, where the chaotic currents of space flowed endlessly beyond.

The air around him felt dense.

Multicolored radiance revolved steadily around his body, weaving together in slow, deliberate cycles. Each pulse of light carried traces of different energies, blending, separating, and blending again as they passed through his meridians and elixir fields.

The lotus within him rang incessantly.

Notifications echoed one after another.

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By utilizing Verdant Pulse Recovery, you've gained insight into the Law of Life.]

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By utilizing Verdant Pulse Recovery, you've gained insight into the Law of Life.]

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By utilizing Earth Anchoring Collapse, you've gained insight into the Law of Gravity.]

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By utilizing Earth Anchoring Collapse, you've gained insight into the Law of Gravity.]

Grey remained unmoving.

Yet inside his consciousness, vast changes unfolded.

Streams of understanding formed naturally, connecting fragments of realization together. The intention behind the Law of Life revealed itself piece by piece. Growth, decay, renewal, circulation. Birth did not stand alone. Death did not signify an end. Everything flowed in cycles that reinforced existence itself.

He perceived what would happen if the Law of Life weakened.

Vegetation would wither. Bloodlines would fail. Souls would lose cohesion. Even worlds would collapse inward over time.

Life was not kindness.

Life was structure.

At the same time, the Law of Gravity took shape within his awareness.

It was not merely weight or attraction.

It was order.

Foundation.

Binding.

Gravity defined direction. It established above and below. It anchored existence, preventing reality from dissolving into meaningless dispersion. Without it, space fractured. Matter lost cohesion. Worlds tore themselves apart under their own motion.

As these realizations layered over one another, Grey felt something click.

The scattered insights aligned.

A breakthrough followed.

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By continuously gathering insights, you've successfully comprehended the Law of Life to Minor Succession.]

A deep warmth surged through his body.

It did not burn.

It did not overwhelm.

It circulated smoothly, imprinting itself into his flesh, blood, and soul.

[You've awakened the ability 'Life Cycle Imprint'.]

[You've gained insight into the Divine Law of Life.]

[You've gained insight into the Myriad Law of Chaos.]

The secret realm trembled faintly as his presence grew heavier.

Several hours passed in silence.

Grey remained seated.

The multicolored radiance shifted once more, this time carrying a denser, deeper pull. His perception sank downward, toward solidity, mass, and resistance.

The Law of Gravity settled into place.

[Your Comprehension defies the heaven! By continuously gathering insights, you've successfully comprehended the Law of Gravity to Minor Succession.]

The space around him warped subtly.

Invisible frameworks formed around his body, locking his presence into reality itself.

[You've obtained the ability 'Gravitational Frame'.]

Grey felt the change immediately.

Movement around him slowed imperceptibly. Energy flows bent slightly in his vicinity. Attacks entering this field would lose momentum, their force would redistributed under his control.

[You've gained insight into the Myriad Law of Chaos.]

At last, the torrent of understanding calmed.

Grey slowly opened his eyes.

The law powers settled fully into his body and mind, permeating every layer of his existence. He felt connected, not to techniques, but to the governing principles that upheld vast portions of the universe itself.

Life pulsed within him.

Gravity anchored him.

Grey exhaled softly.

"It's finally done." Grey stretched, a satisfied smile forming on his face.

He had finished comprehending Verdant Pulse Recovery and Earth Anchoring Collapse a full month ago. His seclusion continued for a single reason.

Practice.

Once he began actively using both techniques, he discovered something unexpected. Every few activations, insight naturally accumulated.

Verdant Pulse Recovery granted him insight into the Law of Life roughly once every five or six uses.

Earth Anchoring Collapse proved even more efficient. Insight into the Law of Gravity emerged once every one to two activations.

Through continuous usage, Grey refined his understanding steadily. Over time, the accumulated insight crossed a threshold.

Both laws awakened.

With their awakening, the techniques changed fundamentally. Energy consumption dropped sharply, and their effectiveness increased across the board.

The Law of Life granted Grey a new ability.

He could imprint a life cycle directly onto his body.

By adjusting that imprint, his cells could either accelerate degradation or dramatically increase regeneration speed. When paired with Verdant Pulse Recovery, the healing effect multiplied several times over.

In simple terms.

His recovery speed reached an absurd level.

The Law of Gravity granted another ability.

A Gravitational Frame.

He could alter the weight of objects and freely adjust his own mass as well as that of others.

Grey exhaled softly.

This seclusion had been worth every moment.

During this period, he also experimented with Soul Search on the mutated beasts within the realm. With every fifteen to twenty uses, he gained faint insight of a law tied to the technique itself.

That discovery shocked him.

Soul Search was connected to the Law of Spirit!

The realization left Grey momentarily stunned.

He immediately poured his focus into it, pushing his comprehension to the limit. However, reality was often disappointing. Even after two full months of effort, his progress remained shallow.

The law barely reached two percent comprehension.

Compared to the other laws, its difficulty stood on an entirely different level.

While working through the Law of Life and the Law of Gravity, Grey encountered another unexpected gain.

Insight into the Myriad Law of Chaos surfaced once more.

When he first reached the fourth level of the second rank, he gained initial awareness of that law. Afterward, no progress followed, even with heightened perception and enhanced senses.

This time was different.

Only after comprehending additional laws did new insight emerge.

The reason became clear.

The Myriad Law of Chaos carried overwhelming depth.

Its level rivaled divine and source laws, perhaps even exceeding them. That alone explained the slow pace of comprehension.

Yet this realization also revealed a path forward.

Each newly comprehended law accelerated his understanding of chaos.

If he continued mastering fundamental laws, the accumulated resonance would push the Myriad Law of Chaos toward minor succession.

Once that stage was reached, his unparalleled comprehension would take over.

From that point onward, he would be able to deepen his comprehension directly through the law itself. Further progress would no longer depend on using other laws as catalysts.

Even so, Grey understood one thing clearly.

Advancing additional laws would still refine his insight. Each new law carried fragments of universal truth, and those fragments resonated with chaos in subtle ways.

Every advancement strengthened the foundation.

And with a foundation like that, growth would only accelerate.

"Alright, it's time to head out." Grey smiled and waved his hand.

A portal formed instantly.

His figure blurred as he stepped through, exiting the secret realm.
