I think I see it now. The A record that your NS record points to
should be a record within the cloud.chx domain, not the ad.cloud.chx
subdomain.

So you could do something like this:

ad-ns1.cloud.chx 86400 IN A 192.168.1.253
ad.cloud.chx. 86400 IN NS ad-ns1.cloud.chx.

Then if you query an a record in the subdomain (e.g.
test.ad.cloud.chx) you should see the NS record in the authority
section.
