Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven Chapter 486: Concept of Dimensionality, How does one reach the 6th rank?

"At last, I've reached the pinnacle of the nexus cell realm." Grey blinked.

This outcome surpassed his wildest expectations. With such progress, stepping into the helices realm now lay within his grasp.

Yet before advancing, he sought to ensure his foundation stood at absolute perfection.

He returned to the testing facility to verify his scores anew.

[Strength: 6S]

[Speed: 6A]

[Defense: 6D]

[Combat Power: 6th rank, 3rd level]

Nexus Overclock had propelled all these stats to dramatic heights. Now, he deactivated it to inspect his natural prowess.

[Strength: 2.5S]

[Speed: 2.5A]

[Defense: 2.5D]

[Combat Power: 6th rank, first level]

"Nexus Overclock's 600% boost elevates everything by 3.5." Grey nodded in approval.

Previously, his base lagged behind even standard 6th rank thresholds; today, it rivaled a slightly superior first-level 6th ranker.

First level spanned an index of 1 to 2; second level, 3 to 4; third level, 5 to 6; fourth level, 7 to 8; fifth level, 9 to 10; sixth level, 11 to 12; seventh level, 13 to 14; eighth level, 15 to 16; ninth level, 17 to 18; tenth level, 19 to 20; eleventh level, 21 to 22; twelfth level, 23 to 24.

Post-dimensional transcendence, this indexing served as the sole standard for proper categorization.

"A 4th-dimensional being in this world seems truly bizarre." Grey understood the true functions of a fourth-dimensional entity—they could phase through matter, teleport at will, possess endless storage, ignore physical limits, and even undo small errors.

But in this place, their might extended only to lightly scarring a handful of star regions. What a ridiculous spectacle.

Curiosity piqued, he turned to Eve and Eterna for answers.

"Oh, that’s because of the Origin Will," Eve explained. "In a lower plane of existence, you'd naturally wield the full might of that dimensionality, glimpsing past, future, and present alike. Here in the main world, however, you're merely capable of obliterating a star region. The Origin Will offers leniency at 7th rank, letting martial artists—who are Fifth-dimensional—shatter distance itself and roam the universe freely."

"So that implies 8th rankers are Sixth-dimensional beings, correct?"

"Yes," Eve confirmed.

4D: Realm of space and time.

5D: The realm of probability.

6D: The sovereign of reality.

Probability's domain allowed them to foresee futures, tweak timelines so enemy strikes whiffed harmlessly, seize optimal paths for advancement, and more.

6D granted utter dominion over a universe—they rewrote history, reshaped laws of magic and physics on a whim, and remained unkillable barring the universe's total erasure.

"Outside this universe, I ought to wield space-time alteration to some extent." Grey swelled with pride.

This seventeen-year-old could manipulate space and time within lower planes, free from any Origin Will suppression.

In a mundane world like his original Earth, that meant phasing through solids, reversing time, and peering into futures.

At the same time, he comprehended why 6th rank demanded profound mastery of spatial law.

As for the time law...

"The time law? It doesn’t exist in our universe," Eve chuckled. "Nor in any other worlds. The Heavenly Dao sealed time access after its aeonic barrier shattered due to some force," Eve added nonchalantly.

"8th rankers borrow Origin Will power to halt time and revise history. They manage it in other universes too, strong enough to draw from any universe's origin directly."

"Why can't they grasp the law of time while borrowing its power?" Grey tilted his head.

"Nope." Eve shook her head. "The Heavenly Dao... even higher world beings can't touch it. No comprehending time law while it endures."

'But I've already comprehended it,' Grey pondered silently.

Grey stood as the only one across this vast universe capable of comprehending the law of time!

Though the Heavenly Dao blocked his path to minor succession in time law, he possessed a way around it.

Locate a lesser heaven, claim a fragment of the ancient heaven, invoke the heavenly mandate, and let that fragment supplant the current heaven until minor succession!

Such a straightforward yet powerful strategy!

"Does that mean Fifth Dimension here relies on borrowing Origin Will power?" Grey posed the pivotal question.

This detail proved vital to his personal path as well.

"Yes," Eve affirmed with a nod. "Without grasping the laws of space and time, how could they possibly transcend dimensions? Nowadays, the key requirement is achieving advanced mastery in the law of space, catching a glimpse of the Dao of space or its principles, and linking to its power. That’s precisely how you shatter dimensional limits, compelling the Origin Will to bestow its powers upon you."

"Heaven stays impartial; embedded in its rules is the truth that when one path seals shut, another is bound to swing wide open. That’s the reason this rule endures throughout the vast endless reality."

"Oh." Grey gave a nod.

Beyond laws lay the Dao, which some simply termed principles.

Yet the Source World and God World harbored their distinct laws, impervious to interference from the endless reality or any superior realms. No wonder they dominated the peak.

Most crucially, he had grasped that laws of space and time were vital for breaking into the 6th rank.

Without them, he’d revert to his previous route—the one still tainted by remnants of evolution’s secret rules.

He utterly rejected that option.

His paths boiled down to two: A, transcend sans laws, or B, attain advanced mastery in both space and time laws, glimpse the Dao of space and time, then ascend.

"Wait." Grey abruptly stiffened.
