There are two options here.

1. Revise Nock's translation (in line with Murray, whom Nock criticizes in his own footnote), to read both genitives together: "Of the supramundane Gods, some create beings..."

2. The option that [personal profile] boccaderlupo gives us upthread.

Either way, hyperkosmiōn is an adjective that requires a noun; we supply that noun—"Gods"—from the previous sentence (and in option 1, it's explicitly there in this sentence, too).
