Infinite Mana: Complexity of Existence

The main focus of this crt is adding the verse-specific power page. Some of it is a little controversial, but I'm willing to wait a while.



Now Complexity of Existence is basically the cultivation physiology of everyone. The first major realm is Terrestrial Complexity of Existence. It has 3 sub realms, Basic Terrestrial Complexity, Intermediate Terrestrial Complexity, and Advanced Terrestrial Complexity. Basic Terrestrial Complexity has no hax, those in that realm lack supernatural powers. What I'm focusing on today is Intermediate Terrestrial Complexity.

Some of the abilities from Intermediate Terrestrial Complexity are not innate, meaning you don't get them from cultivating. You basically need them to cultivate. Those at the peak level of their complexity would have all of this hax. So I'll explain why some of these hax should be on this page.

Ascendancy Halo! Ascendancy Value! Two new concepts that came with the elevation to a Higher Existence, and also information that explained more about the power of Primordials! Once one held 15 Flames of Edicts, they could be connected to form an Ascendancy Halo that was actually one of the major determining factors of one's Ascendancy Value- which was simply a measure of all of their power. ~ 1373
In the Realm of Cosmic Filament, different Tiers were set up depending on the Ascendancy Value an existence had- with these Tiers also serving as titles as they were known as The Nine Firmaments of Ascendancy! The Nine Firmaments of Ascendancy! ~ 1427
The Cosmic Filament Realm is based on Ascendancy Value, which is basically all of your power combined. To progress through the Cosmic Filament Realm you need to increase your Ascendancy Value.
The essence of Apocalypse was running rampant throughout as it threatened to devour everything within the domains, but even though it was focused on the Primordial that seemed untouchable...it could not get near the immense and boundless authority of an Ascendancy Halo! This was an accumulation of 15 Flames of Edicts. Its concept alone was frightening as the power one could wield with it was enough to heavily elevate their Ascendancy Value! ~ 1408
There were many factors in play to measure one's strength, with the number of forged Cosmos being one, their Bloodlines being another, along with their Edicts, Ascendancy Halos, and more!
All of these...were clustered together into what Noah had come across before- an Ascendancy Value. ~ 1427
Many people correlated how high one's Ascendancy Value was closely to their age- as the older one lived, the more Edicts, Bloodlines, Ascendancy Halos, and Cosmos they could forge within their bodies! ~ 1427
White, Blue, Purple. This was the elevation in Tiers of Ascendancy Halos as for one to obtain a Halo of the blue tier, they had to include multiple Quasi- Insuperable Nomological Edicts within it! For one to forge a Purple Tier Ascendancy Halo, an Insuperable Nomological Edict had to be included- or one could achieve it through their own unique means. ~1438
One had to strive for years to find new ways to compound their strength- whether by completing new Edicts and forging new Ascendancy Halos, or by forging more Cosmos. Those not talented would remain at this level for all their lives as it was arduous to go from 100 to 1000 Ascendancy Values to break into the Third Firmament...buy then there were those that were simply too terrifying with their methods of compounding strength that they could ascend the Firmaments with ease. ~ 1453
All of the existences in the Firmaments of Ascendancy relied on the authority of their Halos formed by their Flames of Edicts to multiply the damage of their abilities, with the higher tier Halos like Noah's Black Ascendancy Halos having much higher damage and defense value Multipliers.
This was why in the highest stage of the Firmaments of Ascendancy and for those beginning their path as LEGENDS, they all strove to forge Quasi- TABOO and TABOO Nomological Edicts to attain stupendous authorities that elevated their power even higher! ~ 1688
The main way of increasing your Ascendancy Value is through Edicts. You create, comprehend, and then combine them into an Ascendancy Halos.
<Flames of Samsara> :: The Flames of Samsara bloom in your origin as they usher in an inclusion into the Bloodline of Samsara. As a follower of this Bloodline, you are granted +500,000,000% to True Defense, +200,000,000% to True Annihilatory Damage, the ability to escape True Annihilation of Origin and Soul is generated to be utilized once, and your Origin begins to produce a nanoliter of the True Blood of a Higher Existence within your body daily. ~ 1320
Completing Edicts allows for you to generate True Blood and become a Higher Existence.
"Your soul...you will come to find that at a certain point, it cannot contain any more of the vast numbers of abstruse concepts and nomological truths of Daos and Edicts. That it cannot contain the countless blooming Flames and Authorities as ultimately...it will be like a container that has become too full." ...! "The plight of the Soul..." The eyes of the Overseer turned solemn at this moment as she actually spoke with seriousness. "...it is something that stops the scaling of the Firmaments of Ascendancy for the vast majority of existences as to overcome it, one has to expand the 'container' that is their soul. Before they can impose any more Edicts or Daos onto themselves, they have to refine their Souls with none other than the Essence of Reality as they forcefully go against natural law!" ~ 1460
Everything seemed to revolve around the generation of Essence of Reality and the elevation of one’s Soul to overcome shackles and add more concepts onto their soul, this thought bringing Noah to the other important feature that his Infinite Empire spoke of. ~ 1471
The whole point of the Cosmic Filament Realm is to strengthen your soul and add more concepts (Edicts) to it.
From the body of a Suzerain undergoing destruction, their Haven became visible to all as it showed a radiant cluster of Realities twisting and spinning in a circular motion with fluidity and harmony. What contained them wasn't a barrier or a domain...but dazzling crimson and gold Halos. Ascendancy Halos wondrously spun to contain and empower the spinning Realities- where these Halos themselves were unique as they varied in size. There were 30 small Halos spinning in their own unique manner to create an inner ring that had the most dazzling Realities within it, then there were 60 larger Halos that made up a middle ring that was barely with swirling Realities. Finally, 90 dazzling Halos of light made up the outer right which currently didn't have any Realities at all! Resplendent and cloudy wisps of light flowed in the three rings of this Haven that showed constantly spinning Realities and Ascendancy Halos. 180 Ascendancy Halos in total as the three layers they made spun in their own fashion as wisps of essence were absorbed constantly to reinforce this Origin- this Haven.
A Haven that was constructed by Halos that were made from the Flames of one's very concepts, and then filled with Realities as it was termed a Grotto Haven! ~ 1967
You actually need Edicts to form Ascendancy Halos to enter the Grotto Haven realm.
"Any single being has a Source of Existence. A System of Existence that their very being follows. For us, we have a Conceptual System of Existence bound by specific ideas. Natural Laws. Extremes. Omniversal Authorities. All are concepts coming together to present an extremely stable whole. From the little that I've managed to discover by comparing other Systems of Existence- ours is an extremely stable one that many forces share." ~ 3169
In fact the whole cultivation system that Noah follows is based on the cultivation of concepts.

Basically you need Edicts to make Halos to increase your cultivation to reach the Grotto Haven Realm.




Now here's the juicy part, hax.

Not sure about this one.



Who Gets It?
(They have all reached the peak of Intermediate Terrestrial Complexity and beyond.)

Disagree on Acausality. Abstract Existence might be fine but not an expert on it. Other abilities should be fine.
 
The evidence only rly supports resistance to time hax and not rly being immune to changes in the past
Well from how I understand it, being immune to changes in the past isn't the only way you can get type 1.

Type 1: Time Paradox Immunity: Characters with this type of Acausality are rendered immune to changes in the past and standard temporal paradoxes, but remain just as vulnerable in the present and can be affected by normal Causality Manipulation and similar abilities.
Although I'm not sure what qualifies for a temporal paradox.
Note that only characters explicitly depicted as immune to time paradoxes in their past by feats and/or direct statements qualify for this power. Fiction commonly features time travel systems where time-travelers, for no explainable reason, retain their memories of previous timelines even after changing the past, and merely existing in a work with such mechanics doesn't mean the character inherently has such an immunity, especially given how they would still be affected if someone else was time-traveling instead.
Cecilia went back in time and Aegon could remember what they were talking about in the future.

That's just memory hax, not rly acausality.
As for the temporal paradox stuff, idk either.
