Now that he was back in his Universe, though still on the wrong side of the Meteorfield, it was about time for Nial to focus on studying the hieroglyphs that seemed much older than the Universe itself. All by themself, they were already on par with Ancient Forgotten Runic Constellation.

Some of them were even better, more efficient, and with a stronger effect than Ancient Forgotten Runic Constellations. That was pretty impressive and something worth researching.

That was what Nial spent the following year while stockpiling a large amount of resources on the side. He created a bunch of runic constellations while giving simple pointers in the creation process. All of this was done to a recording device. The video material could be rewatched infinitely, slowed down, and watched from different angles to see everything.

Nial was given a considerable amount of various resources in exchange for the teaching material he provided. That way, both he and the Demihuamns made great profits. Nial learned a lot before he left with Shadow, traveling outside the Demihuman\'s territory. Outside their territory, he met other races such as Renecaiser Dwarves, Frohlaki, Lokaisaer, Mihandaer, and tens of other races.

Most of them frowned upon encountering him but that was to be expected. He appeared in the midst of their territory, undetected by their best detection devices and he acted eerily nonchalant while facing their Elite combatants. A few Originals at the Trixor rank attempted to fight against Nial but he didn\'t even think of giving them a chance to overwhelm him.

While they were still trying to comprehend the Godly Foundation of their Divinity, Nial had already gotten his hands on a perfect understanding of his dark energy. That may only be the case due to Damian\'s memories, but that didn\'t matter. His understanding of the dark energy was also equivalent to a perfect understanding of the Essence of Darkness. The Essence of Darkness would become one of the ingredients he would use to create his Divinity.

His Power of Chaos, his extremely strong senses that were further enhanced by the Hodur\'s Heir Curse, the Curse\'s Black Miasma, the crimson moonlight of the Blood Eclipse Moon, the Essence of mental control, Dominion, and his Summoning Gate would all become ingredients as well, one way or another.

Nial was already coming up with a way to turn his abilities into one supreme Divinity. Of course, that would require some more time but he was not in a hurry to create his Divinity, either. If he were to rush himself, he would only fail miserably.

Even if he had been allowed to fail other steps, failing in the creation of his Divinity was something he should definitely avoid.

That was also why Nial chose to continue researching himself, and the things around him and continue searching for more resources that may or may not be helpful in the creation of the Divinity.

He defeated the Trixor-ranked Originals that were even farther from reaching godhood than Nial before he made sure that they wouldn\'t think of him as an enemy. Of course, that was not easy sometimes since Originals at the Trixor rank were petty and ridiculously prideful, unable to accept that someone at a lower rank had just defeated them.

Most of the time, Nial overwhelmed his opponents by using his reinforced dark energy. He was in possession of three to four times more dark energy than most people could hold mana. That was because he had a perfect foundation, and Nine Darkness Temples that had been created in the biggest possible Sea of Darkness that could be created. His foundation was simply perfect, which was something that not even 0.001% of all Originals at the Mythician rank could attain.

Of course, that didn\'t add that Nial\'s mana had been purified several times and that every cell in his body was nourished and filled with dark energy. And then there was the Heart of Darkness, the endless storage of dark energy.

Nial didn\'t need to become best friends with all those other races. He just wanted to travel around and exchange knowledge fairly. He came up with a way to offer his knowledge and talents in exchange for the knowledge of Ancient hieroglyphs, unique materials, and more. Many races stagnated in their progress. That was also why they accepted Nial\'s help rather easily.

They ignored the three-meter-long serpent that had coiled around his abdomen, wrapping itself around him several times to stick close to Nial whom it regarded as its father figure. Nial was trying to ignore Shadow as well, but sometimes the Devil overdid it a little, provoking the people around him.

That was not exactly helpful but there was little to nothing Nial could do against it. Shadow was too bored because there was not much for him to do, yet he didn\'t want to leave Nial\'s side either. That made things a little difficult for everyone every now and then.

Nial\'s knowledge improved with time passing and he slowly but steadily approached the age of a hundred years. Nial never expected that he would be away from the Origin for over 60 years but that was exactly what happened.

The last sixty years felt like an extremely short amount of time. Somehow, it made him doubt whether he did anything great or if he had wasted his time in the last sixty years. His cultivation progressed a lot and so did his knowledge. However, he didn\'t form many relationships, or expanded his shelter, territory, or whatsoever. All-in-all, the last sixty years had been a breeze in which he became stronger and more knowledgeable.

It was not even close to being comparable to his life on Jundra. That was also why it felt as if it passed so quickly.

When he turned 100 years old, Shadow had grown to a length of exactly 100 kilometers. It was also time for Shadow to be able to pass through the Meteorfield with one or two jumps. As long as he had enough energy accumulated inside his body, nothing would hold him back anymore.

That was something Nial looked forward to. He wanted to go home, meet his family again, and show off his strength and knowledge. It was about time that his Devils returned to him and that the Orion Shelter would be upgraded quite a bit!
