Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven Chapter 541: Alissa’s call, Issue of the primordial spirit
Previously on Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven...
For a considerable duration, Grey traversed his planet before making preparations to enter the Creator Space. However, just as he was about to step into it, an urgent summons from Alissa interrupted his plans. With a frown, he swiftly teleported to her quarters.
"What has happened, Alissa?"
The lovely girl was on the floor, her silver hair cascading loosely around her. Clad in form-fitting attire, she resembled an ice fairy. On Earth, passersby would likely offer reverence, mistaking her for a celestial being.
Upon seeing him, she rose. Yet, almost as quickly, her legs faltered, and she began to topple forward. Grey managed to catch her at the critical moment.
"What is this?" Grey's eyes widened as he held Alissa firmly.
"[Myriad Law of Chaos] power?" His astonishment grew.
It was evident that the power of the [Myriad Law of Chaos] was surging within Alissa. Though unstable and erratic, its presence was undeniable.
"It pains me, Grey," Alissa expressed, her face etched with distress.
"Fear not. Hold onto me tightly. I shall banish this discomfort." Grey offered a soft chuckle, continuing to support Alissa, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, as he channeled his own [Myriad Law of Chaos].
It flowed into Alissa's body. Instantly, a soft, prolonged, and satisfying gasp escaped her lips.
"Y-you scoundrel." Realizing the sound she had made, her anger surged. "What did you just do to me?"
"It wasn't me. It was you," Grey replied, speechless. "I did nothing, miss."
"Just finish it," Alissa demanded with a fierce glare. She knew he was telling the truth. However, the havoc caused by the chaotic law power within her body prevented her from even covering her face in shame.
"Remarkable. This has surpassed my expectations," Grey stated, his eyes wide.
"What? Are you surprised that I've tapped into the law's power?" Alissa inquired, a hint of pride in her voice. "My talent is considerable."
"Talent." Grey clicked his tongue and lightly tapped her head.
"Do you comprehend what would have transpired had I not been present?"
"What?" Alissa asked, gently rubbing her head.
"You would have perished," Grey sighed gravely. "The law's power is actively repelling your physical form."
"Curious. So, it's connected to one's body or specific physiques."
It was understandable why only the Faceless, Past, and Future Ones could wield this law naturally. For others, the law inherently rejected their mortal vessels. Alissa, however, was a true anomaly, capable of comprehending the law independently.
"How can I make it cease rejecting me?" Alissa inquired, her long, curious eyes blinking.
"At this precise moment, there is no known method."
"But I am determined to learn this law," Alissa declared with unwavering resolve. "If no method exists, I shall sit here and discover one myself."
"I require no assistance." Alissa gave Grey a sharp huff and crossed her arms resolutely across her chest.
Grey sighed, observing her stance.
"And then what? I find you deceased the following day?"
"I doubt you would even register my demise," Alissa remarked, casting a fleeting glance at him before quickly averting her eyes.
"Refrain from such words." Grey offered a wry smile. "Your absence would indeed be felt."
"However, I will prevent your demise in the first place."
Alissa flinched upon hearing his declaration. She looked at Grey, a faint blush appearing on her smooth cheeks, and quickly concealed it with a huff.
"I shall endeavor my utmost to avoid death, then," Alissa murmured softly, as if proposing a more agreeable arrangement.
"You are unaware of the implications," Grey stated incredulously. "Why this fervent desire to master this particular law?"
*Because of you. You utter fool.* Alissa's face warmed slightly as she thought this, mumbling quietly in her mind.
After all, she had pledged to protect him.
Alissa currently faced a more significant concern, one that even impacted her cultivation.
It was Grey Lockhart. His image filled her thoughts whenever she closed her eyes. In moments of solitude, her mind invariably turned to him, and she found herself experiencing intimate daydreams she would be too mortified to share.
Her online searches for these symptoms yielded a definitive diagnosis: she was in love.
She staunchly refused to accept this conclusion. Ultimately, this denial led to a deviation in her cultivation, and the sudden, chaotic outburst was a direct consequence.
She harbored frustration towards herself for falling for this man who seemed intent on provoking her, and equally towards Grey for his apparent obliviousness to her affections.
She would rather face death than confess her feelings to Grey directly.
What if he rejected her? He already had Lia and Valeria.
Speaking of which, Alissa had been directing hostile glances at them for the past few hours. They had invited her shopping earlier, but she had summarily shut the icy door on them.
A novel emotion stirred within her: jealousy.
"I'll find a solution," Grey murmured, his voice soft. "I can discover a method for you to cultivate that law."
Alissa's azure eyes sparkled with hope. "Really?"
"Yes. Don't attempt anything with the law until then. Behave yourself," Grey advised with a smile before departing the chilly chamber.
It was time to focus on the primordial spirit.
He quickly entered the Creator Space.
"Merging the fighting spirit and transforming it into a primordial spirit should be straightforward," Grey mused.
The technique for converting fighting spirit was intrinsically tied to metamorphosis energy, the essential vital energy needed as the foundation for generating axiom energy and for the transformation into a primordial spirit.
"However, the dilemma is, if I utilize it for axiom power, how will I then employ it for the primordial spirit?" Grey pondered deeply.
"Could the same ripple effect that applies to metamorphosis energy be used to multiply it?"
No, that was impractical, as it wasn't his innate energy. His sixth rank advancement would be fraught with interference, requiring numerous external elements to achieve the breakthrough.
It appeared to be an arduous task.
Then, an idea struck him, one that perfectly suited his inherent nature. As a being of frequencies existing in the fifth dimension, his fundamental essence was a living wave of energy, not merely physical substance. He didn't need to depend on conventional structural conversion or the limitations of solid matter.
"Hold on. What if I directly imbue it with axiom power?"
