Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven-Chapter 373: I am back, world will

"Yeah, I can use this." Grey immediately activated his energy and shot it straight into the ley lines beneath his feet.

Why would he do that?

Simple. As he suspected, he could not fully cover the Azure Origin Planet with his own mind perception alone. It was too massive, nearly ten times the size of the Blue Star. Hence, he had to resort to using the planet’s natural energy veins as an amplifier. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Soon, across the four continents of the Azure Origin Planet, giant screens made of pure energy materialized in the sky. They displayed Grey in high definition, projecting his image to every corner of the world.

"Everyone, I am the Creator of the Aether Path. I know many have seen its display of power, and some remain skeptical about it. But remember one thing. This path is superior to your current Flux Martial Warrior path. I know many of you have already formed entire societies around your current system."

"However, that path is a mere scientific experiment conducted by a higher being. My path is different."

"It is the true source of transcendence. If you do not believe me, then I do not care. But on the day the people of my path transcend, everyone will eventually understand its importance."

"And now, I will use my power as its Creator to convert those who are willing to change their paths to my own."

With those words, Grey cut off the livestream.

As a Creator, he had been reviewing the capabilities of the Creator Invocation. From it, he realized that he could directly convert people’s cultivation base into his own path, as long as they were at least two ranks below him.

Meaning, he could convert everyone at the 1st Rank and 2nd Rank directly into his Aether Path, provided they were fully willing to accept the change.

Grey hesitated no further. He waved his hand, and immediately, the Creator Invocation went to work.

Across the Azure Origin Planet, billions of people immediately felt the power of the Nexus Path changing their internal structure as a whole. They were soon converted, their old energy washing away to be replaced by the new system.

"Almost twelve billion people." Grey smiled.

This was far more effective than he expected.

There were actually twelve billion people who were willing to change their paths and were within the limits of the 1st and 2nd Rank.

"Can you do that for me as well, Lord?" The Northern Continent’s Expert suddenly asked.

"Not at the moment. But if you regress your cultivation to the limits of the 2nd Rank, effectively the Second Realm of your martial path, I can do it."

"Of course, even if you regress, you will naturally be stronger than the others."

"You still possess the connection to the world, after all."

"Then, I will do it." The Northern Continent Expert said resolutely.

Without flinching, she dispersed her cultivation, shattering her own foundation until she fell to the peak of the 2nd Rank.

Grey nodded and simply converted her.

Soon, other experts flocked toward the Northern Continent, saying they too wanted to convert their paths along with their disciples who were in the 3rd Rank.

Within half an hour, an additional thousand people who were at the 3rd Rank and above had lowered their cultivation and were converted as well.

Afterward, Grey descended to the core of the planet.

"Are you really going to give the planet World Force?" Fragment asked.

"Of course," Grey replied with a smile as he stared at the core of the planet.

It burned like lava, but the mystical spiritual energy in the air made it special. The energy veins he had used earlier were directly connected to this beating heart of the world.

"Since this planet is now officially mine, I will give it an opportunity to transcend its plane of existence and enter a higher world system with multiple planets of its size. That way, one day, if the Azure Origin Planet conquers the other planets, they will also begin spreading my path."

"That is not a bad idea," Fragment said with a nod.

With that, Grey delivered the World Force he had stored. A tiny portion of what he had gained while devouring the two Abyssal worlds went directly into the planetary core.

With no resistance, it entered the core, and the magma shone brightly.

It was now undergoing metamorphosis.

Perhaps, one day, it would even awaken a consciousness like the Blue Star. But for now, it would undergo a transformation for ages. By then, more and more 4th Rankers would be born in this world. When they finally transcended planes, there would be a massive army of evolvers ready to fight other planets in his name.

"It is time to leave, Fragment," Grey said with a satisfied smile.

"Let’s go then." Fragment had an excited look as it revolved around Grey.

With this, the adventure in another world had come to an end.

Grey’s figure flickered, and he looked at the planet silently for a moment.

He came here as nothing but an empty vessel with no power, and he would now leave this place as a being that can devour planets.

Boom!

The World-Breaking Source Power erupted, and the Star-Portal appeared, engulfing him in light.

....

Blue Star, Second Layer of Space.

The Star-Portal slowly formed, and Grey, along with Fragment, slowly descended into the Second Layer of Space.

"We are back, World Will." Grey stretched lazily as a smile naturally formed on his face.

He was finally back home.

The next instant, light converged, and the World Will manifested in front of them.

"Welcome back," the World Will said with an indifferent look on her face.

Then, just as quickly, her eyes widened.

She realized that she couldn’t see through Grey.

"You... What did you do? I cannot see through you anymore," the World Will asked curiously.

"Don’t worry about it," Grey replied with a cryptic smile.

He knew it was his Fateless One physique at work.

"But it looks like the planet has some exciting things happening while I was gone." Grey glanced down, his gaze piercing through the Second Layer of Space.

He felt the unmistakable presence of a 5th Rank entity down there.

"The entire planet is under attack," the World Will said with a deadpan look.

"With most of the Chaos Seal lifted, the planet is once again visible to the outside world, and a neighboring planet has attacked us."

"I tried my best to stop the 5th Ranker from entering, but he is too strong."
