His stats were in upper brackets among Paragon-rank Demigods.
"Half-step ascension. Seems like this is the name of my ascender rank."
Neo looked at the screen carefully.
"But what is this ’The World’ and why is its name a question mark?"
World Energy rank and World core rank were present within the ’The World’ section.
His World Core was written as ’N/A’.
In other words, he did not have a World Core.
"Seems like I was right. Ascenders need to create a World Core for themselves"
How though?
Neo could ask Primogenitor.
But the skill had 6 of its slots locked due to his questions.
Only one slot remained free.
If Neo messed up again by asking a weird question, his last seventh slot would be locked forever.
Then, until he could complete a modification, he wouldn’t be able to level up his Primogenitor skill.
"I want to punch my past self for choosing this damned skill.
"Sure it gives the answers. But those answers are always fucking weird."
An example was this:
[Q. What would be the best way to create the 9th form of the Divine Swordsmanship?]
[Ans. Have a Sword Intent strong enough to split a Stage-0 world.]
The Old Earth was a Stage-0 planet.
Neo, if he tried hard, could destroy a planet of that level with a single attack.
Unfortunately, for this question, he had to use Sword Intent.
However...
What the fuck was Sword Intent?
Neo had tried to create this ’Sword Intent’ for centuries.
Spoilers, he had been unsuccessful so far.
"I will ask about this Ascender thing from Velkaria."
Neo could not let Velkaria out of his Shadow Space.
Her presence would alert everyone in the vicinity.
In the academy, the principal sealed the room when Neo let out Velkaria.
He could not do it here.
"Guess I need to go meet Velkaria."
Neo used his Shadow Affinity.
His shadows started to burn.
Wisps of black and dark blue smoke wrapped around him.
They pulled him into his Shadow Space.
Neo appeared in an endlessly large space.
A destroyed planet floated in the center.
It was the ’Earth’ Neo brought from the Shadow Trial.
His feet gently landed on the ground.
He looked at the thousand-eyed pillar in front of him.
’What brings you here?’
